    They didn't say that when he got knocked out in 1 by Edwards, so it's the same thing this time I think.

    He has a LOT of talent and he's got TBE training him from time to time. There's nowhere to go but up.

    You underrate Tabiti, he's a great fighter.

    I don't think Chayaphon Moonsri who is 53-0-0 is training Tabiti?!

    Tabti has one talent and that's running.

    You're right, he's not. TBE is.

    He'll learn from this and be right back in the ball game with the rest. Mark my words.

    He's too good to not ascend to the world stage.

    I don't like Roid Mayweather but one thing is clear: He wasn't afraid to let his hands go. Remembering the Clenelo fight, he was beating up that red cheating **** in a very special CHEATING encounter with both guys probably roided up like hell but still. Tabiti doesn't have it man. He's afraid. Once he feels decent power he's on his bike. He might be able to beat some old shot fighters like USS or overrated prospects (Tapia), he might also beat bums (Kayode) or Hungarian glass jaws (Lodi), but he won't win any fights on WORLD LEVEL.

    I don’t see it.How old is he now? Nah..he hit his peak.Only down hill from here.He’d be a good test for up comers to pound on since he doesn’t have bone crushing power and is skittish.Makes youngsters look good on TV etc.

    There is 0 evidence of Floyd using roids, ZERO.

    Anyways, anyone would be anxious fighting against someone who hit that hard. He has the skills to handle a hard puncher, he just needs to work on his defensive game a little more.

    He wasn't doing too well in spurts last night and it showed.

    Man, i know you're a TMT fangirl and i know you're a Royd fan. Look, i am a Ortiz fan and i know he took some stuff, but still i like him as a fighter, it's no shame to like a PED & drug cheat. Drug cheats are common. Royd always had his name to save him but we all know he's Roid Pedweather, not Floyd Mayweather.

    Tabiti has good handspeed and solid fundamentals but he has no business in there if a guy comes to fight. He's a lazy guy who doesn't like to fight in the pocket, he doesn't even like to let his hands go (otherwise he would do that more often as he has very good skills then) and that attitude won't change in the future. It's not about the skills with Tabiti, it's about his mindset, his attitude. And to change that he needs more than 2nd TBE (after Moonsri)....Really. Tabitis chin will get cracked again if he fights the Elite. Maybe he should go down to 175.

    Except there's no been evidence, we have to give him the benefit of the doubt!

    Actually, it seems like you're more into drug cheats than IM, tbh, guys who have been caught.. lol :).

    Anyways, Tabiti is quite heavy handed, he just needs to let his hands go and work on his defense. This is just the beginning of the road. It's not like he's 35. He's 29, he has LOTS of time.

    He's not heavy handed. Rewatch the Lateef Kayode fight and tell me he's heavy handed. Or the USS fight. Cunningham was dropped about 10 times vs. Glowacki. Tabiti couldn't even hurt him. USS said post fight Tabiti is a bum with no power. He should know it. I don't think he's a total bum as he clearly has some skills, but his mindset and attitude is **** and reason why he won't win any important title. Doubt you can change that attitude at this point. Especially after brutal KO like that. We'll see. But please do not come out after Tabiti knocking out some bums or old, shot fighters. Come out next if he fights some LEGIT guys. He has one legit fight on his resume and it was a brutal beatdown and KTFO.

    TMT fighters are always fighting legit guys, don't you worry about that. Jack has fought world class fighter after world class fighter, etc etc.

    He's a good strong puncher actually, I told you he just doesn't let his hands go enough. That was clear in his last 2 fights.

    He'll come back way improved.

    No, he retreated from the opening bell like a coward, held incessantly like a coward, his punches had next to no effect on Dorticos, got out jabbed, got pounded to the body consistently, lost every round except for maybe two, that that's a big maybe, and late in the fight, his defense got sloppy, because Dorticos beat the fight and the gas out of him, then he viciously KO'd him.


    THERE WAS NOTHING LUCKY ABOUT THAT PUNCH.

    This was a comprehensive beatdown and schooling, caped off with a brutal KO.

    Tabiti is TRASH.

    They ain't, Badou is a possible hof and has been one of the greatest success stories in the last few years.

    Let's not forget Andrew, Jleon Love, Gervonta, etc etc.
