    Kambosos is no Tank. Difference is Tank knocks mother****ers out. Don’t worry when he keeps knocking people you can write how his power keeps bailing him out just like it does for all knockout artists.

    Tank is no Kambosos... Difference is Kambosos fights mother****ers with a pulse.

    Watching guys knock out poor fighters is fun, but who's more of a man?
    The guy that goes in with the most dangerous dude in the division at the time (wins), then makes his first defence against a dangerous if boring opponent (and loses)... Or.... The guy that keeps on fighting B grade fighters at best.


    Tank's got some talent but for Christ's sake it's beyond time to step the **** up.

    He doesn't have to do anything. He can fight who he wants. If you don't like it, don't watch.

    This is very true - I don't like to see talent wasted, so I don't pay for his fights... Watching them afterwards is fine.

    No. Granted Loma is far and away the most skilled fighter in the game and even though he's been routinely giving away huge physical advantages that no other fighter in the P4P top 10 is

    Has fought more or way more world champions in less or way less fights than almost all of them, only second behind Clenelo who has had 43 more fights than him. And unlike many of his peers all but one of them are his size, bigger, or way bigger, not dragged up one or two divisions and way past their prime or shot. And almost all were in their primes

    Has fought lots of punchers/huge punchers, many way bigger than him and are big/huge punchers in his third division

    Despite all of this he can still boast some of the best plus/minus stats in the game whilst simultaneously being one of the most aggressive and best defensive fighters in the sport

    When you compare the amount of smoke & mirrors with his career ie. very little and what he's doing to what Twink aka Mr Smoke & Mirrors aka Mr Cherrypicker aka Mr Duck Squad it's literally night and day

    You think someone who has literally only lost 3 of over 420 fights in their entire life am and pro combined, one of which categorically should not be a loss and the only reason it is is because of corruption rearing its ugly head again, and has only ever lost once in his life to someone his own size, the other 2 losses were to fighters at least 2 divisions heavier than him, and he avenged it x 2, can achieve everything he has and maintain that level of utterly insane and freakish consistency without possessing lots of raw natural talent?

    He's very athletic, very fast, has great hand eye coordination, is physically very strong for his size, is tough and has a very good chin, incredible footwork, judgment of distance, timing etc. Twink hits harder than him but he weighs at least a whole division more than him. Look at Twink on the scales at 135, Loma looked healthy on them down at 126, Twink looks ill on them at 130 and 135.

    With this attitude, why do you even watch boxing Turbo?? NO ONE in boxing has to fight anyone of worth. But for the money paid, and....not to mention, WANTING to be a great boxer should be what is more respected. Not "You don't have to watch."

    I can see idiots like Olu is a fan of boxers getting over paid... it just does nothing for me to see glorified high priced sparring.

    I can't believe there's people on here really acting like Tank isn't talented. Tank is an absolute physical specimen. No one is saying that he's the "best", quickest, most highly skilled. But at SFW, LW etc.......he's very likely top 2-3ish concerning speed, power, athletic prowess. Saying otherwise is just being intellectually dishonest.

    It's ok to not like someone but be honest regarding their attributes guys.
