    Depends on your circle. My circle acknowledges this fight as a sideshow. Not a single person is gonna be tuning in HOWEVER we're all excited for the official announcement of Bud/Spence which is expected to happen on PPV telecast. Dont know if its one or both guys but that short little announcement is more exciting to me than the entire card lol

    Tank is only 2:1 favorite but it might as well be 20:1 bc he has all the experience, using a catchweight, and a rehydration clause. Fight couldn't be more in Tank's favor.

    I don't want to hear any of the same fans that hyped Fury vs. Wilder saying that either of these guys are "hype jobs" or had "never fought anybody or did anything worthwhile* until each other" :nono:

    *versus anybody that had a name and wasn't past their prime

    bro isn’t Wilder the longest reigning heavyweight champ this decade next to Wlad and wasn’t fury Lineal/3-belt unified and ended Wlad decade of dominance… in no reality is Ryan and tank on that level or in the same stratosphere

    Who tf did Wilder beat?

    (and he's Fury's biggest win; Wlad was on his way to shot and too mentally weak to handle Fury's game plan without Emanuel Steward's voice in his corner anymore)

    Tank has won 11 consecutive title fights.
    Now what names on their resumes can you name without looking at boxrec?
    Now ask if any of those names were legitimate contenders.

    what title fights? Tank don’t got no title wtf you talking about? Ad far as I know Haney got all the belts at 135 and before that Loma had 3/4 belts, Taylor had all the belts at 140, shakur was just unified at 130.. what title does Tank have?

    Staverne or however you spell his name, Ortiz? Brazellee… and Wlad ain’t look washed up when he almost KO’d Joshua a yr later.. fury vs Wlad wasn’t entertaining at all but fry outboxed that boy and made em look trash vs AJ a even older Wlad looked like a beast

    Based on your logic Crawford shouldn't be p4p since he has a **** resume

    I don’t think Bud is #1 p4p but you can’t control if yo division is weak all you can do is fight the guys there… neither tank or Ryan is in that situation 130/35/40 been hit the entire time they been there and yet both guys have refused to fight anybody remotely good at all… how many fights has Ryan backed out of and how many excuses has tank made to not fight guys

    Again why are you sitting here criticizing gravante and Ryan but no one is saying anything about spent in Crawford at least whoever wins this fight will be considered a powerful pound one compared to Crawford's been powerful power one it hasn't even fought a level fighter

    The point is Ryan is better than anyone Crawford or spends has fought and take his better than anyone Crawford and spends has fought

    Ride in gravante are both better fighters than furry and Wilder that's the difference I don't know why you guys care so much about accomplishments but not names based on your guys's logic fluid is better than Roberto Duran hagler hers and sugar Ray Leonard
