In the same era as : pbfm, Zab, Viv Harris, maussa, cotto, Hatton, tszyu, Gianluca bronco, Arturo Gatti, chop chop Corley, Castillo, casamayor, Juan Diaz, Nate Campbell, acelino Freitas, Julio Diaz, and Henry Brussels, Corrales, otkay urkal, Ricardo Torres? I'm asking because he rarely fights nowadays, how well would he have done back when it was murderers row from lw to jr welter weight?
He’s around, not like he is now, a high middle of the pack fighter, win some lose some - who I don’t think gets past Tszyu or Mayweather Jnr.
Mayweather obviously beats him. He'd probably be able to keep it safety first and win that way. Gatti gets murdered. Freitas would be a repeat of the Ryan Garcia fight. Casamayor and Castillo would probably cause a lot of problems but eventually lose by a round or two. Chop Chop, Diaz bros, Campbell, Torres, and the Euro guys weren't on his level and would unfold according to whatever Tank's chose to do. I loved Corrales, but Tank would chop him down. Zab would do well and probably go up by several points, but I figure his chin would fail him in the second half. As for Tszyu, the only guy anywhere in the ballpark of Tank's level who he beat was Zab, but he obviously wouldn't one shot Tank in two rounds. And the only bigger guys who Tank has beaten were Garcia and Barrios. Could go either way, especially if Tank let's himself fall in the hole. I assume Hatton would be too big and physical and win a decision by infighting and being dirty.
