at 135 lbs currently is most well known guy for Lopez to fight with. Good sales for rematch. Who he else might fight with good $? Garcie, do you think DLH will gave Garcie to Lopez now? Maybe Floyd might allow Tank to move up 135 lbs and fight, imagine purse they will ask for this one? Haney?
Tank in particular does much better at the box office than Loma. Same with Ryan Garcia. Tank already fights at both 130 and135 pounds as he is a world champion in both divisions.
Well, fights vs Tank or Garcia of course might be sold well. Another question will their handlers and promoters gave them for Lopez to fight with this year? Then Garcia also doesn't have major tittle belt, therefore in negotiations with Lopez Lopez will enforce to be on heavy A side. Ofc DLH this will not like, bob too is there and so on.
Tank is the A side in any equation because he has been making more money than the rest by far. A side is the guy who puts bums on seats which Tank.
It’s hilarious, Tank is a “champ” at 135 yet he’s never fought a legit opponent at the weight. He puts bums in the stands and often in the ring...as his opponent. A great example of a protected fighter. Wonder which 126 pounder Tank is going to drag up to 135 next. As long as his chump fans pay to see it, I suspect this bum train to continue. His fans might be suckers but they are loyal and consistently dumb.
130? belt? currently? Tank still is continuing to improve and fight even after get hit seriously. He is not GOD but lad still looks that is go to do all the best he is able to do.
Never seen someone miss 90 - 95% of their punches and win the fight. And then you saw afterwards loma didn't have a scratch on his face while teo had 2 black eyes and a broken nose.
Continuing to improve while fighting no hope opponents? It’s hard to improve when you fight washed up old guys like Gamboa and tiny guys like LSC. The legit LWs can punch and take a punch better than tiny guys two weight classes below Tank. I was surprised at how much he was hit in both fights. Gamboa was doing damage on one leg. It’s no surprise that he’s a protected fighter because Floyd ain’t keeping the tough guys, even the young ones, far away from Tank by accident. Garcia called him out strongly and I’m curious to see what excuse Tank will use to run away from this fight. He can run but he can’t hide, at least not forever. Sooner or later Tank is going to have to fight a real opponent. One his own size.
Lomachenko looked plenty scuffed up too. Check him out starting around the 7:20 mark. This content is protected
I think Floyd likes that his boxers does have nice looking undefeated records with high KOs %. Looks Garcie will have other opponent not Tank for next fight. I don't think that Tank does have fear to loss 0, another conversation are managers etc ppl there. Boxer with better record means more $ with him might be earned. Otherwise not likely he continued to box because he isn't poor anymore at all. Might move to do other things not to continue fight. Ok, not some ultra rich millionare but still he is not poor guy. Some savings he should have.
There is no shortage of excuse makers for this guy. He likes to preen around and talk trash as the “champ” but he’s not fought a legit opponent at his own weight class and has none on the horizon. A younger guy, Garcia has shamelessly called him out and most people don’t expect them to fight any time soon. He’s a protected fighter, and his handlers are afraid he will be exposed. I’m not saying he’s bad, I like his fighting style but it’s getting embarrassing seeing him only fight smaller guys and opponents who are hand selected to pad his record. Tank needs to step up or shut up. If he’s too afraid to fight a real challenger, he needs to come out and admit he’s a coward.
