So if Tank is special why he's fighting B and C level fighters all the time?

    Lol, no. He was picked by Judah as an easy fight before fighting Floyd. Slow, plodding and no power. He beat no elite fighters before Judah.

    To say something like that, there is no way he was watching boxing back then.

    Fair points. Pedraza was his best win and that was a few years ago.

    Agreed, but how many actual A+ fighters are there currently operating boxing?

    Taylor and Loma arent even A+. Lopez has the potential due to his vastly superior explosiveness, but right now as it stands does not have the technique to reach that level.

    Usyk appeared to be A+ at 200 pounds. At HW not so much. Crawford might be, but his level of opposition leaves that question hard to answer. Inoue didnt look A+ when a 36 year old ate his shots. Beterbiev actually so far has produced A+ results, but most consider his technique lacking.

    So that point is, just finding an A+ fighter in the sport is rare let alone finding one in or around your weight class.

    So yea, Davis has fought some B level guys maybe B+ if you wanna call Pedraza that. But yea he can find some A- fighters like Ramirez, Prograis and Taylor at 140 and some A level guys like Lopez and Taylor at 135. But its not like they are miles and miles away from Pedraza. I wouldn't expect any to lose to Pedraza, but we saw how even Loma couldnt just blow him up with ease and actually had to turn it into high gear at times.

    I've already told you I don't hate Twink. It's his fans and all their BS and his undeniable and shameless ducking of the best I have a problem with and all the spin and pathetic excuses for his cherrypicking and ducking and dodging.

    He's been shamelessly ducking Loma for years and you know damn well he has.

    No your guy Floyd has openly admitted they want to age Loma out before they'll go anywhere near him and if Twink beats and old past it Loma you'll pretend like they hadn't shamelessly ducked him for years while he was in his prime even though it's completely undeniable and that he beat a prime Loma. It comes straight from your boy's mouth but you still try to deny it lol.

    And if and when Loma invariably ends up getting robbed again over in the US 100% guarantee you'll score the fight against him just like you always do even when the entire boxing world considers it a scandalous robbery.

    I am not saying you hate him. I think we have already clarified that earlier. I am saying several people on ESB hate him for obvious reasons not you. When he defeats Loma show him some love and put respect on his name.

    The only fight I scored against Lona was the Teofimo Lopez fight which he clearly lost. I did not score the Salisu fight.

    I don't care. The same can be said about Loma, GGG and tons of other fighters.

    OK, sure but only if you show me all the love and respect you've showered Loma with first :lol:

    No I want to see the love and respect you've been showering him with up to now
