Tank damn near went life and death with Gamboa :mjlol:. Gamboa fought tonight to not get ko'd imo. One thing I noticed with Haney is that he doesnt turn over his punches at times, takes a lot off of his power. Thats on his pops though :francis:. Haney has the best tools out of these guys imo/would be even stronger at higher weight
Lol @ this bullshyt, you don't even believe this. Gamboa won like 2 rounds tops in 11 completed rounds, Tank disappointed by not stopping Gamboa sooner since he was clearly limited by an injury but by no means was that a "life and death" fight. Gamboa got knocked down like 4x and took a beating.

Wouldn't say life or death but Gamboa definitely hit him hard a few times while injured. Barely even touched Haney. Boy probably can shower and go to the club after this and enjoy life. Haney should work on turning over his punches more, but he definitely put on the type of fight you want to win.

Can hurt someone when they running and holding the whole fight. If tank was actually coming forward like he did against tank yall would have a point. It sounds like y'all want him to stand there and get hit which is not what he wants to do. Knock out chasing aint what he should be betting on for his career.
I don't want him to fight like a barroom brawler but he can be more offensive than he is and put more combinations together. There are heavyweights who let their hands go more than him.

If he doesn't have power against little guys, why do you think his pillow fist will become stones at a bigger weight?

I explained the power in my earlier post. If Dev didnt have power why was Gamboa holding damn near the whole fight:mjlol:. He felt shyt, Packed up and went home.

your stars are but dust on my shoes
I guess the backlash is that no one was excited about Tank fighting Gamboa, even less excited about Haney fighting Gamboa, and the fight was boring as shyt. He outclassed a 38 year Gamboa in a decision devoid of any exciting exchanges.:unimpressed:

Look, I just don't want to see Devin get Lubin'd. He should be able to scrap together competitive fights from the top 15 right.
