he had a falling out with floyd over something but ishe sees floyd as his peer..he goes back that far..so hes not going tobe all googly eyed over him like others

Ishe is just mad his own career didn't turn out how he wanted :ufdup:

And yall can clown K9 all you want but at least he doesn't wine and complain all day like some of these other cats. Did what he had to do/made his mark in the ring too even with being done dirty by the boxing game. Ishe should take a page out of his book and build his brand outside of boxing. That's my dawg in real life :myman:. Ultimate hustler/using what's available like most Detroit brehs are.

Tank stated he was taking the rest ofn2023 off when he got out plus we learned he just got off house arrest which impacted his training in addition to the Pbc On Prime deal pending which changed up the end of the year line up. It actuall makes perfect sense to announce it now lol

From David POV, I kinda get it. But that makes no sense for Martin. But the time the fight happens, he will be nearing a year removed from that struggle performance against Harutyunyan.

He probably should have been on that final Showtime card in December.

Martin is an athlete and seems like he is in shape year round. Him fighting again wouldnt be a bad suggestion but dude knocking in 30 and this is his realistic biggest pay day ever plus his chance at a belt where even if he loses he got his retirement money. Idk if there is anyone he could have fougjt to “work on” stuff for tank either, so staying in the gym for his best ROI it is what it is.

Tank starts slow anyways so them first rounds Frank will get to shake off ring rust. Like Shakur though Tank comes from different pedigree where Frank’s iq and tool bag simple womt be deep enough to out think the traps Tank sets. Frank doesnt hit harder than Rolly either so while i dont think Tank will walk through Franks shots i dont think he will be as cautious

Everything you just posted is why Martin should have been active. Dude simply isn't on the same level of fighter as a Davis or Stevenson.

My point is i dont see one fight making a diff lol

Frank started boxing at like 18-20 or something, shakur and Tank have a decade of experience over him. Frank is an amazing athlete that can follow directions if we being real, him getting this far is overperfoming if we being real. If Frank had the boxing pedigree of the others he would prob be a legit monster

Canelo must be throwing a huge fiesta in his California mansion tonight knowing Benavidez moved up to light heavyweight. He can now hide and cherry pick in peace like the bytch made coward he is.
