    Agreed.

    I'm not even a Charlo fan tbh, it's just evident he isn't a coward.

    The figures show Tank s the A side. His last fight alone he earned $60 Million by the time PPV money came in. Ryan Garcia as well became a multimillionaire.

    You sound a little bit like Fury's Lil GIMP.

    I agree that he isn't a coward. But his performance was very timid. Compare that to Khan vs Canelo, Brook vs GGG, Canelo vs Bivol. He didn't really try.

    Why is this even a debate?

    Inoue moved up in weight, and completely dominated, outboxed and knocked out the bigger undefeated unified champion and #1 guy at that weight with ease

    And if beats Tapales he will become undisputed at his fourth weight class in just five months. If the Paul Butler fight was just 3 weeks later he would've become undisputed in two weight classes in a year, in his 3rd and 4th weight classes

    Crawford only fought once this year, becoming undisputed in two divisions and his third weight class by beating Spence who would've weighed about the same as him.

    Haney lost to an old well past prime tiny blown up 126 pounder in his own backyard who he had 20lbs on and almost 6'' in reach and they even rigged him a 36 hour weigh in to try and stack the deck even more in his favour. The only reason he got the 'win' is because of corruption rearing its ugly head again

    Twink beat a Ryan Garcia who had never even fought a single world champion or a world title fight and Hector Garcia who was the champ at 130 not 135 and had been dragged up in weight

    Who else has been mentioned?

    If Inoue were to lose to Tapales it will be different but if he wins it's him all the way

    I'm happy for him he's making his money. But boxing isn't just a business, it's a sport.

    He has to start acting like a contender wanting a shot at the champ.

    Crawford or inoue should be foty. Timmy hasn't done enough his best win is Mendoza who's no world beater.

    He is a 3 times world champion at 130 pounds winning different belts. Your issue seems to be that at 135 and 140 he holds the WBA regular titles. That is a you issue not a Tank issue because he has knocked out undefeated fighters and world champions including both Garcia’s alone this year as well Barrios who was then undefeated and held the WBA regular belt. This same Barrios lost on points to Thurman and just beat Ugas. Now Haney was offered the Tank test as was Teofimo Lopez who don’t want it and Shakur has said not yet. All these guys will make career high pay days against Tank but still don’t want it.

    He has belts yeah, but he's far from a world champion.

    Haney has all the marbles at 135.

    Tank is not ranked number 1 in any division, so if he wants to be number 1 he needs to actually fight the best, rather than pretending to be the a side every round of negotiation.

    Tszyu has fought x 3 this year and has beat Harrison and Mendoza, both good wins and performances, and he blasted out Spence's best win Ocampo but no way he deserves it either
