    At his height, probably 140 is the last division he'll retain some level of abilities. Otherwise he'll get Bronered at 147.

    Floyd is 5ft7 and towers over Tank.

    I am guessing Tank is a legit 5ft3 tall.

    Probably 140lbs max. Maybe 147lb against someone with weak punch resistance.

    Cool post. I imagine: Okolie and Lerena vs him for example.

    And The Tuscaloser. The Tuscaloser was so scared of losing to Hurd he refused to throw with his right hand

    So the left hook that KO'd Scuba Scott and couldn't even wobble Charlie Z wasn't even Jarrett Hurd level powerful and Hurd isn't even a big puncher :facepalm:

    Dive like you mean it

    Height and reach can be overcome with superior skill and speed.....IMO Tank if his power holds and his quickness remains he will be OK but for him he suffers from RJJ syndrome his reflexes have allowed him to get away from sound habits and when he loses a step its over.....the bad thing is he seems so dimwitted and speech is bad I am not sure if symptoms of pugilistica dementia will bs noticed

    The bigger he gets the slower and he will probably fight someone coming down in weight

    the further the little tank that could goes up, the shorter his arms become. the trex is not a good look
