    Your rules, Olu, not mine.

    And Twink wasn't clowning around at all. He tried his best to get him out of there like he always does but he simply wasn't up to the task and could only do so on a foul and a terrible call by the home ref. Garcia sparked Fonesca out cold with consummate ease. One left hook and he was out cold on his back eyes wide open staring into the cosmos.

    I respectfully disagree and the fight could still happen though Loma is probably scared of Tank now.

    I know you are a Ryan Garcia nuthugger which is fine. I certainly welcome different opinions to mine as you know as I have always said it’s adds to the general gaiety of the nation especially in these troubled times. Question after calling out Tank, going on various media etc why duck him after Tank and his team accepted? Why duck Haney when the WBC ordered the mandatory and why duck Linares again and fight Fortunata? We want to take him seriously but if this is what he wants to we can’t.

    I really don't believe Tank Davis is a man who is searching for greatness. His choices of opponents have been dissappointing, if not terrible. He is still being highly rated because WBA (the organization that I have completely lost respect with) keeps giving him ridiculous first class VVIP treatment. Letting him fight nobodies as SFW super champ, get LW regular belt for fighting someone who is not originally not in the rating, and the last one, fighting a SFW as an LW and got two belts in two divisions.

    I don't believe he would fight Loma, Lopez, Garcia or Haney. I don't even believe he would fight Linares. When he was in SFW, he never tried to face Berchelt or even Farmer, all only talk talk talk.

    Depends from industry. Cinema and theater does have different roles and not rare cases when successful actors had continued when they were 50+, just different roles. I had saw ppl in such age working whole year or 2 years in row but I did not had saw well paid pro boxers who did 12-24 pro fights during 1-2 years. If you are notable as actor, you might get good gigs at this age. Not youngsters roles, you maybe will play businessman, lawyer, father for family etc like roles.
    Boxer : it is young racing horse. Do you know what happens with old sport racing or labor horses?
    Of course boxer too might change occupation to trainer, businessman, maybe he does have some education, also sport managers etc like things.
    The difference that actors aren't punched in the face and head for a living.
    Success % to achieve dream to become big is almost equal, do you dream to be successful actor or highly paid pro boxer.

    There is full world with decent amateurs, then also not bad pros, ofc also boxing bags.
    Lesser part than few % from them makes decent living. Like actors too, not much difference.


    Competitive sport is very harsh thing also in non combat sports not less.
    Especially for national teams etc alike. They does have xx ppl as canididates, you are a bit slower than some guy etc alike and you are replaced with another guy without mercy. Not much difference with too old cars or horses.

    At least. A lot of prizefighters are finished in 1, 2, 3, 4 rounds.
    A lot of prizefighters are talking about big fights since autumn and didn't had delivered these fights.
    A lot of prizefighters are talking about well known names and after beat up their next opponent start to calling out shot fighters, boxing corpses and talk about fighting with old uncles.

    Lomo at least like Chisora recently had delivered.

    While saints had talked thing A, Chisora had scheduled fight vs Usyk and had delivered and now will deliver fight vs Parker.
    The same time idols might entertain us with hot and loud talks. autumn, winter, january, february, march. april: the same continues.

    No both were SFW title holders in 2017, both were LW title holders in 2019.

    So if in the future a Garcia vs Davis fight is higher in value, would you say this is the right decision and therefore defend it?

    That's not even getting into the fact this clip is from 2018 lol.
