Tank is a beast early, but I'm not sold on his conditioning. He does a lot of good things, but I think Loma takes him to deep waters and drowns...
Agreed. The other big thing is he needs to stay in better shape between fights. I've seen that come back to bite dudes like Toney and Hatton in...

Cool background info. I actually hadnt heard of him till your post, and came across an article saying it doing some research on him...
Funnily enough, they actually used to call him Baby Klitschko in his golden gloves days
If I'm not mistaken, didn't Walters publicly vent about Arum after the fight? It comes off to me as the old man giving Walters the finger and...
He did straight up merc the career of Kotelnik, though.
Classic punchers curse, really. It's not surprising he'd develop a big head and get lax the way he was cutting through everyone. Great punchers...

Rigged fights come in all shapes and sizes. I think the "gentlemen's agreement" is even more insidious than shoddy judging. Done right, it's...
Andy Lee -- Brian Vera
Very much so. I don't think it was on the level whatsoever- seemed like Banks got a healthy bonus to keep the cuffs on.
