    Its really bad for boxing that these guys have fought nobody and now that they’re fighting there is a rehydration clause involved.

    Right now tank resume only has 2 half way decent wins. Leo Santa Cruz who made his name at 122 and padraza who is only decent at best.. so adding Ryan who has literally done nothing at all doesn’t register much.. so even with a win over Ryan it’s still a poor C/C+ level resume

    Still garbage. Why would it change much after beating Ryan when the later hasn't really beaten anyone himself apart from a inactive Luke Campbell who hadn't fought in like almost a year and a half?

    As I explained in one of my award winning posts the other day

    And the fact that Twink is having to stack the deck so heavily against a fighter who has only fought one world champion, a past prime Fortuna, and hasn't ever fought in a title fight before obviously will detract from his win. They've done everything in their power to try and ensure Ryan isn't a full strength Ryan and you can't expect full credit and respect for beating someone you made the decision to try and weaken as much as possible.

    If you want the credit for beating the best version of your opponents don't do that crap and likewise if you want credit for beating the best you fight the best instead of cherrypicking, ducking and carefully manufacturing your career to dupe the casuals with smoke and mirrors into believing you're doing something you're vehemently opposed to doing :facepalm:

    Average, as always.

    He had a chance to fight Loma years ago, but he was/is very protected, sadly.

    The same thing.

    Tanks resume is average at best and while it would be Garcia's biggest win, that means very little considering Garcia's best win was an inactive Campbell.

    I got a feeling ESB will blow up with numerous "Tank was overrated" "Woman beater" threads while Garcia gets high praise, if he beats Tank tonite.

    Of course.

    Remember how Joe Joyce was walking through a prime Forman, Tyson and Ali about a month ago?

    Good times...

    Yeah, I can see the posts now...

    "Ryan Garcia VS Beterbiev IS ON!"

    "The Garcia who beat Tank vs all of Ali's opponents"
