It ain’t even about who they fought per say it’s moreso that they didn’t cherrypick their way to relevance. Hang and Shakur fought all comers and mandatories..Tank didn’t. He literally had the opportunity to prove he one of the best by fighting a champ at 135/140 but he didn’t. Y’all literally argueing in bad faith, when u can choose who u fight and how u fight u can pick easier fighters. But when u mandated to fight somebody now u can’t dictate shyt. It’s easier to pull that 130lb fighter who never did shyt with a good record up and beat him. Tank been promoted well but it’s all smoke and mirrors. Just decent fighters with good records. It’s moreso an indictment when u duck smoke like Haney and Garcia been doing for years. Cherry-picking opponents to fluff up your record ain’t shyt. Going to Australia to face Kambosas is bigger risk than anything Tank ever did.
Kambosas>>> anybody on Tank resume.
Teo>>>anybody on Tank resume.
Loma>>>anybody on Tank resume
And now Loma overrated
we been calling him overrated as a P4P#1 guy but he been a real deal player and top guy at every weight class he been in..so much that Tank thought Floyd was sabotaging his career by saying he should fight Loma.
You say they all on the same level until they fight each other, which is funny, the only thing stopping them from proving that is Tank. Everybody else want smoke and the chance to prove it. Tank/Ryan the only fighters who been ducking real smoke. People literally ducking Haney/Shakur, never heard of anybody ducking a Tank fight.
Nikkas really saying belts and mandatories dnt matter. U claim to be a Spence fan who wasn’t gne get no shot until he went the IBF route and fought Brook. Same shyt with Boots who nobody trying to fight.
But regardless it’s enough boxing to go around, for every Tank and Ryan Garcia, there are plenty other boxers fighting good comp and becoming champs.
