Tank vacates his 130lbs title

Discussion in 'World Boxing Forum' started by sasto, Aug 29, 2021.


Which division should Tank stay in?

  1. 130

  2. 135

  3. 140

  4. 147

  5. Keeping jumping between them (???)

  6. Nowhere because I hate Tank so much

    He is as big as 2008 Pacman, a solid LWW.

    This was the real title, he is still holding two fakes. Supposedly he will have to surrender one of the fakes once he schedules his next fight.

    Midget is somewhat of an exaggeration.

    He's a few inches shorter than most but very much ballpark in reach.

    Pac's been fighting in the next division up again at exactly the same height and half an inch less in reach...

    If Tank is truly an elite level fighter, he could compete at 140 without his stature holding him back.

    If guy is able to make 135 lbs he might fight vs Linares, Lopez, Garcia.
    I think he is stocky type build athletic lad and he usually looks half alive in weight ins pictures. :(
    If no, then 140 lbs division.

    Thanks. Yeah it's odd that he gave up his one real world title but it's obviously because he, as I've been saying for ages, is and always was a natural 135 pounder and doesn't fancy getting naked at weigh ins anymore.

    135 unless he's struggling to make the weight, there are good fights all over the place there that no one (except Teo and Loma) are taking

    He's a midget at 140. 2-3 inches shorter than the average competitor is hugely significant at 140.

    "Pac did it". That's your argument? Should we call for Loma go up to 147 as well then?

    Tank is like 5'3 or 5'4 in real life, josh taylor is exactly 5'10/178cm barefoot. Gigantic difference. Tank is screwed because he's way too small for 140 but he can't make 135 anymore. He is going to have to keep fighting bums.

    Lomachenko's weight in the ring is 138. Pacquiao weighs 147+ these days.
