Most of us care about good fights…this wasn’t a great fight by boxing standards or an event... Ryan has a shyt tom of flaws and was being babied his whole career.
We talking about belts because when u chase belts u can’t dictate who u fight..I can’t believe so many dnt see that. Tank has been matched decently at best. 95% the guys that Tank fought is the people that their matchmakers chose for one reason or another.
Why you think Bootz chasing a belt, because that’s the only reason some people will fight him.
Y’all act like Tank been facing great comp while not chasing a belt
Same with Ryan Garcia his 2 best competiters before Tank was in title eliminator fights..y’all giving him major credit for fighting Garcialike every decent boxer from 130-140 didn’t want smoke with him. None of these guys y’all talking about ain’t showed that they willing to fight the best comp.
I guess we in a different era of boxing fans nowadays. We in the twitch, TikTok , Twitter hot take era.

you know whats wild...even the cats i didn't like watching like a tim bradley or a chris byrd...now its like these nikkas are gladiators to me in hindsight because of what they accomplished in their careers because ppl want to lower the bar instead of holding them accountableMost of us care about good fights…this wasn’t a great fight by boxing standards or an event...

ironically me mentioning tim bradley....timmy himself has bashed tank's career in comparison to his...timmy did more with less ability and its the truth...tank took it as hating and talked shyt about his boxing style and he will make more money 
It's true
Exactly
even tho shorty was sending shots at Skye Nicholson, she has a point.
If that great value Andrade looking white bytch can get a title shot just off the strength of being cute, then are the belts really doing their job?
The fans are starting to anoint who they want to be champs or up next aka....doing what the Belts been doing already.

Yea in this era u get dissed for trying to be undisputed and fighting all comers..shyt is wild.
The standard out the window at this point..Like they giving Ryan and Tank credit like this on of the level of May/Pac. These guys are not even clear cut top 3 guys in their divisions. This shyt is on the level of Charlo/Lubin and Martin/Dominican Ali.
You already know Tank/Ryan got these old nikkas upset if they start praising retired boxers they couldn't stand when they were active.

Tim Bradley career > Tank career
“Tank money > Bradley money” that’s what the Tank stans going to reply like they getting a percentage of the purse..
and thats fukking sad.
in the end...boxing has moved in many different ways...ebbs and flows..unless tank shows he is willing to put himself through the wringer (because lord knows ryan isnt) like most ppl we realized were the "faces of boxing"..tank vs ryan will be a footnote shorter than leprechauns...thats the real talk..everything else is misguided optimism of ppl who sipped the koolaid without no damn sugar in it

lomachenko fought an overweight and very dangerous orlando salido and an undefeated gary russell back to back..and this isnt the norm in men's boxing and it happens really in the lower weight divisions...because of how those divisions moveLomachenko competing for a world title in his 3rd fight after he lost his 2nd fight was

But Tank has never showed he will put hisself thru the ringer tho. If his history is any indication he gne keep fighting decent opps while doing decent ppv numbers which is all good, just dnt tell me belts dnt matter and that Tank is some type of trailblazer. Most his stans think he climbed the mountain top by fighting Ryan fukking Garcia.
