nikka we rich fukk them hoe ass belts

Lmfaooo the damn undisputed champ in crowd to see the face of boxing

Lmfaoooo wtf
"We" rich? And you sound kinda weak saying "F" those hoe ass belts when Tank just promoted his fight with Hector as a World Championship Fight with his regular belt. It mattered in January to be a "champion", now that the last hurdle (Loma) is less than 30 days away, belts don't matter? Yall going out sad.

These nikkas are a trip. They talking like this is the norm. There's nothing normal about what happened this weekend.

That makes absolutely no sense at all. He beat the champ to become the champ, TWICE. About to fight the former champ, who's number 2 in the division, and you want him to fight the number 5 guy in the division after that?
Yes. Tank calls the shots because he brings the money and fans.

@Loose gone hate on that but thats facts
Then don't fight them. You either fight a fighter at their best out don't fight them at all. You can simply juat say we are two divisions apart he's bigger than me it won't work out. I'm consistent with this.

Hahaha.....this is why folks think Tank scared. His fanbase literally twists themselves into a pretzel trying to avoid Devin. The youngest undisputed champion in history, that resides in his weight class, has to get himself hot, but a non English speaking Pitbull Cruz with no hardware and name, can get the fight on 2 weeks notice? What did Pitbull say outta his mouth to the buying public to help sell the fight? What did Hector Garcia say outta his mouth to sell the fight? Somehow, Devin the one that has to get "hot" tho?!?! Yall scared.
First, let’s get back on track. Pitbull Cruz was a last minute replacement who turned out to be a worthy opponent, gained fans, and has a cash paying following. There’s folks who think he won plus he’ll take less money to make the fight. It will be an overall better event.

Let’s say Tank is scared of Haney. Now what? Tank isn’t going to lose any fans and the show goes on.

Haney can move on and make a “big” fight with Shakur.

This is what Haney fans can’t grasp. He has no leverage. Showtime adds all the extra sh1t about “world championship fight”.

A lot of these go hand and hand....

At the end of the day some guys just have IT and some guys don't.

Tank has been the man since he came on the scene. Part of it is Mayweather pushing him so you have someone who was the face of boxing leveraging his fan base but also Tank is delivering exciting fights and knocking everyone out.

The thing you notice about Mayweather fights is that he brought the African American audience out to Vegas for his fights. People will fly and spend money to be apart of his weekends........Tank is the same whether he's fighting in NYC, LA or Vegas. I saw Allen Iverson shut down an entire sportsbook so that him and his friends could watch him fight Hugo Ruiz.

What's really missing from this list is that you need a style (exciting fights) or a personality which allows you to transcend boxing and hardcore boxing fan and capture the general public. Adrian Broner had all of the qualities of being the star but he couldn't deliver in the ring. Tank delivers in the ring, Spence delivers in the ring. Haney and Shakur are boring despite how great they are and they don't sell themselves in a manner that casuals will catch on. Crawford left himself stuck in Top Rank purgatory.

Keep in mind that casual buzz also means celebrity buzz and we all know that in America, that celebrity is king. I'd argue that most boxing fans these days are casual fans who like the big fights.........and people would be more invested if boxers fought as often if they used to and the top guys actually fought each other.

You're lying to yourself. All that "prizefighting" and "keeping the lights on" nonsense sounds foolish unless you're getting some of the prize or your lights are being kept on by Tank's career. No one remembers the PPV numbers or how much Hagler and Hearns purse was. I guess the last undisputed lightweight champion (Pernell) career was a wash cause he didn't knock people out and wasn't a PPV star. It don't matter how big of a star Tyson was, he still got in the ring with his contemporaries like Lennox and Evander. So at what point have you jumped off the "boxing fan" ride and settled for watching on IG to see what car Tank bought with his prize money?
N1gga the paying fan doesn’t care. Go look at the prices for an undisputed fight in Vegas for Haney/Loma. SMH. The Haney’s were insistent on it being on PPV. Sounds like prizefighting to me. Why are you here begging Tank fans to GAF when 100s of 1000s including Devin don’t GAF?

And that's where you lost me. Nobody trying to convince you of anything. I'm just calling out how fighting Haney all of sudden brings out the moisture in his fanbase. Listen to how you respond. Ryan isn't nice with awful punching technique and fluidity. Didn't stop him from getting the fight.

And the fact that you think two black competitors can't support the others event speaks more about you than anything. Hagler had a front row seat to Leonard's "retirement" announcement. Tarver was at Roy vs Ruiz. Spence attended Crawford vs Porter. How about you grow up and ascend above goofy Stan Wars?
:russell:

F**k you and those hating n1ggas. I explained how I think about Haneys skills or lack there of and now it’s Ryan’s garbage too. Ryan brought fans and accepted majority of terms.

Tank ain’t about to be arguing with Bill and Devin about anything. I wouldn’t even allow DHP Promotions to be on the poster.

These Rusume nikkas cant even put together 100 a pop for a 30 dollar spirit fight and 60 dollar ticket to all buy out a row and keep “real” boxing alive.

Folks acting like we gave a shyt about Mike Tysons belts lmfaooo that nikka was live for knocking nikkas the fukk out lmfaooo.

Notice the best fights happened when there were less belts. There was a 2 belt era at one point yet now all 4 belts matter when WBO wasnt even considered to count for undisputed until recent yrs lmfaooo next IBO finnally gonna pay the mob enough that we gonna enter a 5 belt era.
