View Full Version : Did anyone see Malcom Tann
TheGreat1 11-28-2004, 01:52 AM Just wanted to see what you all think of Tann. He fought a very tough cop and fighter in Gavern (i think that how u spell it) He showed good boxing skills and says he has been training with Kirk Johnson and James Toney.
MlLkMan 11-28-2004, 01:54 AM Never heard of him.
dpfinley 11-28-2004, 01:58 AM Yeah I watched it because I couldn't afford the PPV. Good fight for HW - Tann looked pretty decent, but not much KO power. Thought someone was going to get KO'd though...

i agree, if he had more power he could be something.
paulmmv 11-28-2004, 01:59 AM no i never heard of him

Oh yeah...hope that goes down, as soon as his arm is all fixed-up and ready to go.

Byrds parents will through in the towel
TheGreat1 11-28-2004, 08:23 PM damn this fight played all day yesterday, no one saw it but me.
Ranger2408 11-28-2004, 08:24 PM i saw a bit, i saw two overtired men missing shots like crazy and switched it off :)

that was like the 3rd or 4th time i have seen Tann, he seems to have a skill, he reminds me of Michael Grant, not sure how his chin is though, it hasn't really been tested
Boxerdog 11-29-2004, 12:15 PM I watched a bit of it but it didn't hold my interest for too long.
Bout the time his lame opponent stuck his tongue out, I thought to myself, "It might be interesting to see if this chump bites his own tongue off but maybe a repeat of Seinfeld is on......" CLICK.
jabsRstiff 11-29-2004, 12:23 PM I didn't see this fight, but have seen others of Tann's.
He is big, & very ordinary.

I actually like Malcome. I've seen all but 3 of his fights and he has potential. My daugher is crazy about him, but its cause of the hat he wears coming into the ring that his granddad gave him :o I hate that I missed this fight and will keep an eye out for the replay ;)

Really, was your grandfather a boxer?
dempseyfire 11-30-2004, 01:07 AM Tann is nothing special. He's shown a shaky chin vs Chapman and he doesn't have power for his size. He's a hardworker though and seems like a dedicated guy-in this division you never know . . .
plexmc 11-30-2004, 05:32 AM i seen tan a few times yes no better or no worse then these other sorry HW..........That whole devison is boo booo
Xecutioner 11-30-2004, 05:59 AM entertaining fight, the cop showed some decent skills here and there using shoulder roll counter rights but his stamina was awful and he was easily out worked by tann :confused:
tracylee 11-30-2004, 11:52 AM Really, was your grandfather a boxer?
My grandfather?? No. Malcome's grandfather died a while back and gave that funky hat he always wears to him when he was still alive, so it has alot of sentimental value for him and thats why he always wears it into the ring. My kid likes Tann, but mainly for the hat. She always like to know when he's fighting so she can watch ;) THEREFORE I've seen him fight quite a few times

ohh ok, for some reason i thought u said your grandfather gave it to him. do u think tann can ever excel in the div?

I wish he had been! :eek: Talk about growing up in the sport.
I like Tann, and I'd love to see him excel cause he's a good person outside the ring. I think he can do anything he puts his mind to, but he still need's some work.. I've seen him run out of steam in more than one fight and for some reason I'm thinking if he shed just a few pounds he would be quicker (or lighter on his feet) without taking away from the power(which also needs working on some) he has. He has potential I think, but is still very young and with the right trainer can do well.
But like i said, I like him and will always root for him. And if he is sparring with Toney and the like, then that can only help ;)
