    It will they just need to keep winning and JT become more popular so they can make mega money for risk and reward. To often people on this forum don’t understand the economics and business of boxing.

    Who knows, Tank and Floyd may even mix it up a little and start dragging people down from 140 to 135. People like old Raymundo Beltran and devoid of confidence, mentally checked out Ohara Davies.

    Image what JT would do to him given how Twink needed a gift from the judges to get by a crude one dimensional oompa loompa with the reach of a baby kangaroo who he was terrified of getting into an honest exchange with :lol:

    He was never a champ at 140 anyway. Burger King belt. The top 3 140 guys would destroy him.

    Everyone pretty much knows how the game works

    You are not the only one, cmon you know that

    Davies and team wont fight a fight that he has a huge chance of losing

    Its nothing to do with money on the night, more protect the investment long term

    Wont happen

    Taylor is moving up to 147 which you'll be aware of

    If the fight happens its 2022 or never

    Not sure he is or it’s in his best interests because he can get more big fights at 140 with the guys moving up. Only Spence among the 147 elite is going to move up in weight but there will remain lots of dangerous sharks at 147 should JT move up.
