Was Tank exposed or has he lost the fire?

    Last night's fiasco is why I hope PBC just disappears
    Everything that is wrong with the sport under one promotional banner

    I hope Roach gets a call from Turki now

    Problem is Roach was a massive underdog and another cherrypick they pulled up in weight for Twink to look good against and KO in HL reel fashion and not only did Twink fail to deliver the KO but he lost the fight in almost everyone's eyes, was saved from an official loss by the ref not counting a clear cut KD regardless if Twink voluntarily took a knee or not, and more disturbingly for me Twink fought scared against a KO 40% 130 pounder and displayed a mental fragility that belies his mean bad boy wannabe baddest leprechaun on the planet exterior

    And even worse, as he did during his post-fight interview after winning a controversial decision over Isaac Cruz, he wanted to distance himself from a rematch

    I have every confidence that Tank will fight 4 more times including a Roach rematch and steam roll the likes of Loma (only if he is willing because like the Mafia Commission did with the great Joseph Bonanno a.k.a. Don Peppino, Loma has earned the right to exit the game the way he wants), Teofimo Lopez(the racist), Shakira, Haney/Garcia rematch winner then he will ride off into the sunset as the 2nd greatest fighter every from the Baltimore area after the great Sugar Ray Leonard. Of course His Excellency will have to play ball as our Uncle Al Haymon and Tank bend the knee for no one but we can do a joint promotion and these fights will naturally have to be in Las Vegas in the USA the home of global boxing not the KSA .

    Tank was not knocked down or in danger of being knocked out. You have a very vivid imagination.

    Roach is a PBC fighter under contract but we don’t hold on to people against their will.

    Tank won't be classed as a great fighters. He's much more Broner than Mayweather.

    Regardless if he would or wouldn't be able to beat this old well past prime version of Loma or not, he doesn'tr deserve to have Loma's name on his CV. But we have been though all that before

    Twink never gave Isaac Cruz a rematch after winning a controversial decision over him even though it would've been on a deck heavily stacked in his favour

    And even if he did give Roach a rematch the casuals also believe he got exposed and his reputation and his mean bad boy persona have taken a huge hit and all those videos of him doing fruity dancing have come back to haunt him and have even got loyal fans of his in the hood asking uncomfrtable questions about him now

    I have been before not currently. I love the guy I must say. If others were like him boxing would be better. He cares about boxers and their finances. The tragedy of what happened to his brother Bobby no doubt influenced him.

    To you. Broner was a very good fighter once upon a time who won world titles in 3 divisions.

    I spend more time in the hood than you Bro for obvious reasons nevertheless I have not heard people commenting about the video of him and Broner dancing. As for Loma we have discussed and you know my views so it’s up to Loma really. Have you had anything from your sources if he is coming back or is he retired? Cruz may have got a rematch but needed to keep winning.

    Ah at least somebody's a fan

    Tell me though, if he cared so much about a fighters finances, why did he not allow Wilder to fight AJ for over 100 million?

    Wilder did fight with Fury 3 times for well over $100 Million. Eddie Hearn’s stupid posturing was as much at fault insulting a respected figure like Shelly Finkel just turned people off. Hearn thought he held all the cards but he did not and the bottom line is we were cheated out of AJ vs Wilder.

    Wrong answer

    Hearn had nothing to do with that part of the negotiations
    DAZN officials only
    Hearn was told he wasn't part of the negotiations by DAZN
    Wilders team even fired lou for setting up a career best deal for Wilder

    The 3 Fury fights are totally irrelevant to my question too
