    I think he probably has an good chin based in his head shape. I know Garcia is probably the biggest puncher he's faced but Tank was at least a level above and didn't really get caught

    Yeah I was going to mention that I'm just not sure if Pitbulls power is anything beyond decent

    for the weight class he has very deadly power. Hell, even @140/147 his power would carry if he could land being so short

    The only guys with moderate or better lightweight power that he's faced are Kingry, Pitbull, Rolly, and Cientifico Núñez.

    Most of Tank's biggest victories have come against over the hill featherweights.

    Didn’t he get badly rocked early by Rolly?

    Gamboa carried power at 135 but obviously was past it. Barrios has pretty good power.

    No, I just checked and Rolly buckled Tank’s knees in the 2nd round then Tank grabs Rolly for support. He looked pretty stunned to me.

    I think he's fought a handful of big punchers

    Ryan
    Rolly
    Cruz
    Barrios
    Nunez

    Nunez got blown out early so he didn't really test his chin

    Cruz is a puncher but I'm not sure if he hits as hard as some think he does. He'd only stopped 1 of his previous 5 going into the Twink fight

    Ryan is definitely a massive puncher but the version Twink fought looked a bit sickly and was certainly considerably smaller than the version Haney fought. Twink fought a weakened Ryan

    Rolly can really crack too. That's the only thing he does well

    One thing we have to acknowledge is Twink looked positively scared of Rolly's power, and Ryan's too IIRC, and he wanted no part of getting into an honest exchange with Cruz. He ran, held and stiff-armed all night against him

    But that being said, I do think Twink has a very sturdy beard

    Didn't happen. Davis was never hurt by Rolly.

    His chin and heart will be tested soon, it will take a boxer with good skills and defense.

    Just rewatched the Tank Martin fight back as PBC released the full fight on their YT channel, it was a real good fight while it lasted and I thought Martin definitely looked heavy handed and caught Tank with some sharpshooters, especially in those first 3 rounds.
