not feeling this Tank fight at all...

Picking again a fighter coming up from 126 and from a loss

Tank's in ring style is exciting but he does pretty much everything to still not be likeable

The way Machado got jobbed out of his title in favor of Davis even though he beat the champ and Davis beat a guy who never competed in 130 :scust:

The blowing up between fights
Childish social media beefs with other prospects and MMA fighters for social media buzz instead of focusing on fighting top guys :beli:

The way he was crying that Floyd is no good for him even though he got him a title for that Cuellar fight (and now a fight against another 126lb-er)

The way he was complaining that a Loma fight would be a set up against him

The way he was talking about moving up except if he can fight Farmer then when Farmer won he didn't pick him nor he moved up but fighting a 126 lber coming off a loss instead :martin:

the thing that iirc he never even mentioned Berchelt, the actual top rated guy in his division, like didn't even eye with him... even though Berchelt is not a strictly HBO guy


He and his team just making too many wrong moves
130 is just a mess period, Berchelt been the champ since q1 2017 and has made no moves to unify with anyone either and has fought bullshyt fights his last couple times out. I heard Farmer's team now say the Davis fight isn't a big fight for them. That whole division is a bunch of clowns.

Probably because he wasn't. it was a fukking boxing match, of course nikkas are gonna hit but I find it even more hilarious that there is this narrative on the board that Brook was smacking Spence up until he landed a hail mary that broke his eye socket.
Cause that's what actually happened. Spence was getting tagged well

yeah im not keen on how 130 is moving..after the FOTY candidates it has given us. 13 years since a unification attempt in a division is kinda crazy. I can't think of any division 112 and up that hasnt had at least 1 unification attempt in the last 10 years max

Spence was getting touched up alot till brooke started to fold under the return fire
Re-read what I posted and then read what you wrote and then realize they don't agree with each other. And shyt was pretty much an even fight or Brook up by 1 at best thru 6 until Spence's early body work compromised Brook's movement. That's not a hail mary punch breaking his damn eye, either way shyt is an old and tired argument, I'm keeping it moving.

I saw it different around round 6 I saw Brook was ahead about 2 points and was seriously buzzing the shyt out of of him and after seeing that he was affecting Spence, he got dragged into a war, looking to a land a big shot, disregarding defense eating some heayy shots in return, by the time 6 ended that eye started swelling and he couldnt turn that boxing switch back on:manny:

Wilder putting in work and selling his brand Shannon Briggs style :wow:
Boy if he KO's Fury :banderas:
Either he KOs him or loses on points though I don’t know if Fury is back like that. Culture needs that Wilder KO

Man a month before that fight @Yuzo told y’all EXACTLY what was going to happen in Spence Brook. As soon as Spence started adding punches after his Jab it was over. Brook was in it when Spence was throwing one punch at a time.
