    Do you rate Barrios? I think he’s trash tbh man. Just one of those dudes who’s never really impressed me.

    It’s not as bad but this reminds me of Canelo-Fielding in the sense that Tank is so much better that the weight class becomes irrelevant.
    A lower top ten. All I wanted was for Tank to test himself and stop bringing up guys in weight. No reason for me to move the goal post just to complain.

      This dude took 6 rounds to KO Cowboy Karl who was begging to be KTFO. Cowboy Karl got KO'd quicker by a guy with less than half his wins by KO.

      Tank is gonna stop this dude 100%. He's there to be hit. And he's gonna get hit. I won't be surprised if Cowboy Karl got more ring time with Barrios than Tank will.
      At 140. People say Davis is too small for 135.

        Who says he's too small for 135?!?!?!

        And I'd argue JCR or Josh would be tougher fights at 140. Zepeda would probably be tougher. Hell Teo ain't even fought at 140 yet & I think he'd be tougher.

          a lot of people said Tank is too small for 135.

            Tank looks like 135 is his max weight. Not that he couldn't do something dumb and be undisciplined enough to blow up much bigger than that but dimensions wise he probably shouldn't venture up much further.

              Thanks for bring up Taylor. If the Barrios fight happens, the next target is Taylor, if he wins his fight. Otherwise, he'll go down to 135. Barrios is kinda tough tune up. There's bad blood between Davis and Taylor. I don't think the Barrios fight is for nothing. Floyd wants to have that fight in the UK. Another fight that will sell a stadium there.

                Taylor beats the **** out of Tank. I mean, sorry to interrupt your conversation but Tank has no chance in that fight at all.

                  Now you’re just making stuff up to justify skipping over a stacked division to fight a stiff who has picked up a vacant title.

                  if Tank was the sort of fighter to fight a guy like Taylor, I think we’d have seen some signs of that before now.

                    With his built, power, and athleticism, I'd say his ceiling is welter. He'll be strong at 140.

                      I'd like to find out. Other than size, Taylor is basic.
