Ppl saying tank is the new wilder sound crazy 
Similar to Bud, somebodies going have to prove they can capitalize on Tank giving up the early rounds while he sets up his opponent and flips the switch late. Won a couple dollars off nikkas at the bar getting gassed off Garcia looking good early
Not worried about Boots. One of the reasons you fight a young boogeyman early is in hopes you Jeff lacy him and catch him on a night like boots had last night. If his pops is any good at all they going right to the lab to work on cutting off the ring, not winging wild shots that spin him around and working off a jab more. That rolling with the shot thing is cool against lower caliber fighter but they need to tighten his defense too. Never seen Spence fight with that much movement and Bud downloads and is probably too old to move like that long enough but I was thinking about a healthy Keith Thurman against boots last night would have shocked the world

Dude is literally trying to fight what most ppl say is the most dangerous guy at 135lb. Everyone, including you I’m sure, is saying he’s gonna get knocked out. He’s only 22 btw.
Meanwhile, Tank is 28 and has never even been in a competitive, even match up in his whole career. Save that energy for Tank - the most protected, lackluster career-having, top fighter in the sport.

I think boots can give bud major problems. Esp in those early 6 rounds.
Iv never been on the boots super hype train like everyone else, my homies last night was making a lot of excuses for how mediocre he looked.
Yeah Spence wont let off, Bud and that “downloading” shyt can be risky but if he gets past that shyt gets interesting.
Imo Boots needs to take on Ugas, Thurman, or Ortiz and then snatch a vacated belt lol.

Imo he’d have less of a chance against Bud because Bud can box his ass off when he sees that as the most fitting way to win and it looked like Boots is struggling a bit with a guy not standing right in front of him.

Spence would probably spend more time in front if him.

I was telling y'all that there isn't some humongous talent/skill gap between Ennis and Ortiz Jr. 
i had been telling ppl for a min they should have been fought...it didnt need anything else other than 2 young prospects/contenders needed to scrapI was telling y'all that there isn't some humongous talent/skill gap between Ennis and Ortiz Jr.

If anything if you compare their resumes Ortiz has fought the better competition out of the two... and it's really not even that close.

Ryan Garcia is annoying and Tank seems to be kind of a POS from what I know so I won’t root for either of them but that doesn’t mean I’m not hyped about their upcoming fight.
Tank still have more dimensions and ring IQ imo I’d still favor him but Garcia is a very live dog. Tank can be hit clean despite him trying to roll with the shots and if Ryan uses his height and range and connects clean with some of his left hooks even Tank’s otherwise durable chin could be dented.
Tank is the rightful favorite but I’m not writing off Garcia’s chances.
Both of them losing to Haney and Shakur though.

If we’re talking 135ers I’d like to see Kambosos against someone with an aggressive style, imo he’s not done yet just couldn’t do shyt to a boxer like Haney. If someone brings the figh to him that’s a potential classic. Like imagine Kambosos vs William Zepeda for example, that’d be a foty contender
