This is weak....

Spence went over to England. Beat the unholiness outta Brook. And then went and had some fish and chips.

Cuh has put out all but two of his opponents. You mean to tell me that he has so little confidence in his skills that if he doesn't get the KO, He knows he'll lose? :dahell:

People like to talk about fighters cherry picking but this nikka takes the cake.

Don't ever mention this nikka as a Pound For Pound nothing ever again. fukk him.

The difference is Spence was a nobody at that time and took his chance. Tank at whatever time Turki tried to propose the fight was already considered one of the faces of boxing, thus the "I do what I want" energy. I`m not defending Tank I`m just saying you can't compare the 2.

If this was Tank during the time he got the belt from Pedraza being told to go to Saudi for all the belts, then yeah that is a similar situation (same way Devin ironically went to Australia not once but twice).

If my timeline isn't off I would have thought Tank going to Jail if anything would have been what thrown things off + Devin not being able to make wait but taking that Loma fight as he had to as part of his TR deal.

All the more reason to take the fight. Prove your the best in your prime and against the best in their prime...

from the home of coca-cola, i'm not referring to s
He too uninformed/unarticulate to say "Devin was the man, and Ryan beat the man, and I beat the man who beat the man" lol.

The Ducking Devint thing I took as "you are BFFs with Turki, and if y'all tryna get me to fight at ya BFF house I know its impossible to get a decision so y'all better give me every damn thing I want". I will say Turki seems to not give a fukk who takes an L or not and I think he over estimates Turki and Devins relationship (because unless Devin is an idiot he could have leveraged Turki post loss and kept his 140 belt).

I think assuming Shakur and Tank take care of business, things should interesting come April. In all reality Tank vs Shakur should co-main Bud vs Canelo if we really talking about a generational boxing card

Tank was being a p*ssy.. Turned down $20m cause of some fantasy that he's gonna get cheated.. He always think somebody tryna set him up.. 1st Pedraza was a setup :mjlol: then it was Lomachenko.. Now he turning down $20m GUARANTEED for Devin...
how much you think he gonna turn down gor Shakur he already want more fararri's sent to his house :dead: Biggest duck in the history of boxing

Where exactly did the "cab driver" slur in boxing originate from? Who made it a thing? :jbhmm:
I don't know. I know a couple of boxers who were bus drivers, postman and bouncers. They didn't make the big money that professional fighters get so they took on normal jobs to support themselves and their family. This also meant that they didn't dedicate themselves full time to the craft and it showed in the ring.
