    I wouldn't have mind seeing tank eventually move to 140 had he atleast tested the waters at 135 and tried to make fights with the big names there.

    Ach, so not really a champion then.

    Belts these days is feckin rediculous.

    Undisputed to me means "The ONLY champion".

    Yet, Ramirez / Taylor will have someone else saying they are a champ too? Pfft, lot of ****

    I think he was to fight Garcia after the call out then Garcia showed his true colors. Also taking the scalp of Loma not as big as it was before Teo got to him. His real target is winner of Taylor vs Ramirez and Teofimo.

    147 he gets bullied

    I think he gets bullied at 140.

    Taylor, Prograis, Ramirez all take him apart.

    Even Zepada, Postol and Baranzyk i'd favour.

    I thought Prograis was thinking about going to 147?

    Well that's the question regarding Prograis and Taylor isn't it? Prograis and Taylor are both big 140 lbers.

    Personally, if he can get past Ramirez I'd like to see Taylor give Prograis a rematch in the US to put all the questions of their first FOTY to bed. But if they both move up then we could even see the rematch at 147!

    As long as folks don't see that as them trying to avoid Tank / Lopez coming up, which I think is nuts.

    Very cool! He will have more guys to duck at the new weight as he cherry picks no hope opponents! He’s not fighting any of the big names. Just like he did at 135lbs. At least the chubby little guy is consistent. Hope he doesn’t miss weight this time. You never know with Tank.

    Who did he fight at 130? People keep falling for this guys crap. Never underestimate stupid people. There is no shortage of dummies. Tanks fan base is exhibit A.

    He's tiny at 135. He's not even really a 135 pounder. This is just idiotic and his handlers need to control him better than they have been. SMH
