    Tank is going to have major problems with Frank.

    He should have fought him 5 years ago when they were both at 130, yes, of course Tank should fight Loma, the little diva has been ducking him for a half decade now.

    Loma would expose Tank, so obviously Tank won't take the fight.

    No, because he's going to have to rematch Martin, when Frank beats him.

    Shakur, Garcia at 140, and Haney are better options. Lomachnko isn't beating him.

    Yes.

    Lomachenko would be a very live dog in that fight.

    While certainly hard hitting and more skilled than many are willing to acknowledge, Tank lacks some of the length and range that has troubled Loma in other fights.

    Hes afraid of Loma.
    Those quick feet of his and angled punches and pivots would be a disaster for Tank.

    He should fight either Teo, Shakur or Devin. Ain't he got sparring footage of them also

    I think so too. Martin is a good fighter.

    Aside from the left hand Tank has no other attributes that exceed Lomas. It would be an interesting fight but both have to win their upcoming bouts. I think Loma handles Kambosos without too much trouble but I have only seen Martin fight once so cannot gauge his chances.

    But the power difference is huge as is the age factor. Tank was certainly avoiding Loma in the past but I think Loma gets knocked out now if he fights Tank.

    I doubt it. Tank is no where near the boxer Loma is, even at 36. But, age could be a factor.
