I see Tank has started his own promotional company, GTD Promotions. I take it that means he will be getting a hefty percentage of the backend money, ticket sales, and PPV. Wonderful thing that Haymon had shown his boxers....how to maximise their earnings beyond the fight purses and even taking more of that home.

Agree. But isn't he still signed to Mayweather? If that's the case, Floyd is the one eating off everything you mentioned. The seed was planted tho with Tank amd I could see him signing fighters as well.

yeah he cares about his fighters so much. thats why he tricked wilder into turning down joshua in order to make much less money from staying with haymon controlled properties.

Am i seeing it right on boxrec, they have Barrios as the favorite vs Tank. Is this right? I would think Tank is fav.

Boxrec is the worst thing ever other than for fighter records and some stats. It's completely unreliable for anything else. I don't take them seriously whatsoever.

I have to admit tho that it's refreshing to see a different perspective where Barrios actually has a chance. According to my personal survey based on NSB members, I estimate it 90-10 Davis. Not many even give Barrios a chance.

Do you agree with NSB? Why or why not?

Yes as i said i expect Davis to win but was wondering why boxrec had barrios as favorite. I am excited to see them scrap. Don't know too much about Barrios but we'll find out saturday!
