When is a fighter NO LONGER a "tomato can"?

I think Vera has shown lately he is a good quality B+ level fighter, definatly not a tomato can

I think if you beat anyone in the top 8 of any of the major rankings 3-4 times that rules you out

 

its the W that counts not how its got, maidina isn't a tomato can, far from it, he is top 3 at 140 i believe but crude and clubbing he most definatly is

 

Once a real Tomato can always a Can .

 

I think tomato can reflects an attitude as much as a skill level, a lack of dedication

I did consider Vera a tomato can but I think he has the hunger back and has a decent win over Mora he cant really be considered that any more

 

I apolagise for the lack of sentence structure and punctuation im quite stoned

 

Once he gets a impressive win over a top opponent.

 

a guy with a big losing record thagt goes there for the payday is a so called can

ther is pro journeymen that have good defense, regular tv fighters are hardly that u idiots

 

A tomato can is always a tomato can. If they actually manage to beat someone it just means they're a lucky tomato can. I think you're getting shot/washed-up (which means they were good at one point) mixed up with fighters that were never any good to begin with and are there to pad out records.
