They say a lot of stupid stuff. Real stupid. They'll argue that fish can't swim and birds can't fly and they're so consumed by and invested in their spin and excuses they even start to believe them themselves. Like I said, the words and actions of the very people they defend so vociferously completely contradict their fanboy spin. Floyd and Ellerbe have made it abundantly clear what their intentions are a million times but their fanboys still try and deny it.
What had Tank done that shows he will beat enough large for 135 lbs guys? His best win is over the hill shadow of Gamboa. Prime shape Gamboa most likely had finished Tank in distance and this his last opponent too he most likely had stopped. WTF. Most likely. Nothing wrong, we now do have next diva in Lopez who is waiting for fight he will loss via stoppage. His best win is close points win vs the same Loma, he stopped to be KO / TKO artist when he get_______ Nakatani in the ring. Yeah. He even did not had fought enough hard hitting lads from 135 lbs top, even not likes aka Pedraza, Linares, Campbell. When he will move up to 140 lbs and I hope 147 lbs, he will get floored sooner or later.
Loma fears no one. Twink fears no one. Floyd fears Loma. Floyd owns Twink. Twink ain't fighting Loma, especially after their respective performances Saturday.
Easy work for Loma. Tank has been bailed out a few times already by his power. Tank's power will be negated by Loma's skill and movement. Pick the sublime boxer over the sensational puncher.
Floyd and Ellerbe intends to wait until Loma old enough and beatable for his boy. But then again, Loma will not be stupid to take the fight if he knows he is no longer up to it. He is already 33 and often talk about age factor in boxing, I will not wonder if later on he uses it for himself. If this Tank vs Loma fight does not happen in the next two years, we'll never see it happen.
I want this narrative to stop...................as I've said multiple times, Tank would fight anyone they put in front of him, he's a dog. With that being said, his handlers know he'd be up against it against Loma (so do I), so they sidestepped any talk of this. His handlers don't want it. For the most part none of these guys are afraid of each other.
I was wondering when that would happen. Boxrec rankings have been a farce since they changed things up early 2020. The guys at PBO don't update as frequently but have the best computerised rankings. I notice they had Barrios ranked at 23 @140: https://www.premierboxingorganisation.com/junior-welterweight-140
