If only Tank had as much confidence to fight a single top 5 opponent for the first time in his career as you do.
- -Tanksy always be pregnant. Give him a break
Sure, I wouldn't mind seeing it. But Tank won't cross to the other side of the street so it's pointless to even mention it.
This thread is about trying to give Tank an imaginary win over Teofimo. How was your question even relevant to that, Dunn?
Rather than go on a sidetrack about how much revenue Tank generates I thought it better to focus on the fact that Teofimo actually showed balls by fighting Lomachenko. And then fought his mando.
As fans that's what we should want.
A boxer doesn’t have to be cross the street to be in exciting fights that attract fans. Tank is fighting in house fights that are exciting.
I don’t care about that stupidity. I’m surely not trying to do that. Teo fought an in-house fight with Loma. Cool. Kambosis is the mando but he is no better than Barrios or Cruz, Tank’s previous and future opponents.
As for what fans should want, why does that seem to keep changing depending on who it is?
Tank is giving fans what nsb boxing should be about.
They mentioned it during the DAZN broadcast. Said he was on the brink of tears after the fighters meeting. Said he had 20k left in his account. Also revealed he was separated from his wife and hasn’t been able to spend time with his newborn. His team he was with up to this point had been dismantled.
Teo is an emotional fighter. And if you can’t compartmentalize in boxing. The big lights will melt you. That’s what happened tonight.
The same wife his whole family told him not to Marry? lol pussy, it is undefeated.
Tank doesnt want any of these top guys. He fights older smaller fighters .
tank is the kind of fighter like tyson, he better get in while he is young, before people figure him out . He isnt the type of fighter who would stay on top for a decade. But we all know he will waste his youth on fighting older smaller fighters being protected.
If i was TMT i'd be making Tank vs Kambosos. George doesn't have any power, Tank will knock him out.
highly doubt that would happen. having all the belts does not suit TMT as it means they would have to defend them against the best, or vacate them and move up.
TMT has Tank on a casual fan base build up path, so having all those belts makes it worse for that strategy (as it would educate the casuals into learning that there are many other champions)
I'm a fan of kambosas and respect him a lot, look I wasn't impressed with him in his fights against Bey or Selbey but he got the job done tonight. But I still think Tank, Haney, and even Loma ice him. There are levels to this ****, Teo just doesn't have the mentality to stay on top as a champion, he wants to be a boxing celebrity, not a boxer. He aint built for the champion life. He had 1 big win in him that's it, mentally ruined.
Yeah I think Teo kinda mentally weak and it doesn't help his father is a functioning crackhead
Lopez said it as it was relayed during the telecast. Said he was down to $20k as he spent $200k preparing for the fight. He spent the last year partying and bullshiddin
I wonder if the being line swung after that lol. Maybe it was too late but sheesh!
If TMT aren't ready to offer Kambo big money for a Tank match they must be crazy.
Tank will never have a better chance to win all the gold. Then he owns the division.
Ellerbe must be licking his big fat lips surely.

"A fool and his money are soon parted".....Wasn't aware a training camp could run $200K,damn. It appears those financial woes could've been why his team had been dismantled and we witnessed that bootleg corner of his last night.
So you’d like to see Tank-Kambosos then?
Sure, I wouldn't mind seeing it. But Tank won't cross to the other side of the street so it's pointless to even mention it.
You changed and then dodged the question. I didn’t ask you to count anyone’s money. I asked you why guys aren’t as successful as Tank when you and others claim they’re fighting the best.
Kambosis is not better or more accomplished than a Barrios. So if you enjoy seeing him fight Teo, why is it wrong for someone to want to see Tank fight Barrios, a guy on about the same level, in a fight that was every bit as exciting?
Tank’s fights gives fans what posters say fans want- action and ko’s. Why suddenly is this a problem?

As fans that's what we should want.
Can we just stop talking about Tank in this context
when he and his Team are against making such fights?
It's useless. Make them when Tank is ready to step up.
Fantasy fights should never be mentioned here.
The point is Teofimo's defense is terrible, no head movement or waist movement, just steps back, if he got dropped by this guy Kambosas tank would put him in a body bag, real talk. Now we know why Teo acted like he did this year, his 15 minutes of fame are up. The sooner this clown is gone from boxing the better.

I agree but no triangle theories. Cant give tank credit for fantasy fighta (even if I think youre right)
Exactly tank has to step up to get credit not fight bums until he's 50 and 0 and then say he would have easily beat fighters with credentials
As a fan, who cares about that?
I'd rather see Teofimo vs Lomachenko and an entertaining scrap like Teofimo vs Kambosos rather than count how much more revenue Tank is generating by putting Rolly or whoever on PPV.

So you’d like to see Tank-Kambosos then? Sounds like a great fight to me.
But I wouldn’t mind seeing Kambosos as a slight dog to Haney either and then ending that hype train like he did Teofimo’s.
Kambosos winning and not being a mug like Teo is probably the best moment for Gervonta to climb to the top in an instant.
Tbh, if I am Mayweather or Gervonta, I am pushing hard for Kambosos to fight Gervonta. Even if Gervonta takes the B side. I would actually push Gervonta as the b-side to get Kambosos team to agree to it.
I am happy for Kambosos. Truly am. If he takes on Haney next, like he said, I want him to beat Haney too. That’s how much I am happy this guy won. Go ahead and unify the whol division too,
But if I am Mayweather or Gervonta? I am definitely already starting the process to get Kambosos-Davis late-spring, early- summer.
Gervonta can beat Kambosos and sure-handedly at that. He’s not Teofimo and if anything, he is too patient in the ring. Not overly anxious and bull-headed like Teo showed.
Honestly, Gervonta would probably knock Kambosos out. He’ll break him down slowly and then put the nail in late in the fight. Styles make fights and Gervonta’s style is all wrong for Kambosos.
