    Teo does not seem keen because he knows Tank knocks him the **** out. Floyd has already asked for it.

    Tank is another example of a reveered POPULAR fighter that is not also a GREAT fighter. Other fighters that were POPULAR but not the BEST could be Cotto, Jacobs, Khan, or even a Gatti. Not saying Tank is comparable to any of those guys style or skillwise but he's as popular (or more) without having objectively accomplished anything.

    how would tank knock him out when it took tank 11 rounds to get rid of barrios? This is just non-sense.

    Don't think he can catch Lomachenko

    Tank is one dimensional. He's not that good. He will be found out when he steps up. Just fights bums.

    I legit think Broner would have stopped Tank when he was at those weights.

    Jabbr lists punches by quality (low or high), Floyd consistently landed the higher quality punches.

    Barrios is longer for starters. If Kambossos got to him Tank definitely will.

    its about skill. Teo beat the top guy at 140 pretty easily. Barrios wasnt even top 5 at 140. There's no proof that Teo will lose in a devastating fashion. He will likely win 8-4. Same with shakur but his chin hasnt been tested as much. Issac cruz did the best and he was shorter than tank

    Barrios was top 5 an an undefeated world champion. Tank is a special boxer cut from a different cloth.

    Teo and shakur are still better. Barrios was winning most of the rounds up until the 10th round. Plus everyone else replying disagrees. Hes good but hes not invincible.

    Also

    “This is a huge opportunity for me,” said Barrios, who is ranked No. 7 by The Ring at 140 pounds. “’Tank’ called me out. I know he’s trying to do something great, but this is a dangerous fight for him. It’s going to be an action-packed fight. We’ve never faced fighters like each other before. We’re going to see on June 26 if it’s the right move for him.”

    He's top 10 not top 5
