good win for tank, hes moving up and he moving down but hes not fighting any top dogs, hes following a floyd plan which i think is frustrating for people, but hey if it pays off in the end and he gets to be a big ppv star he wont complain, he doesnt want to risk a blow out, build the hype up i think is the plan & its working for him, i mean the guy in on ppv and hes fought low risk fights!!!! wow

Also great move by Haymon to take boxing to cities like Atlanta, Houston, Baltimore, etc etc. Cities with considerable African-American population. Taking boxing to the people and growing the sport should be the goal and pbc is doing a great job of adding markets and target audiences to the sport. Isn’t tonight a PBC on FOX night as well?

Sadly i couldn't afforf the ppv, so i haven't seen the Tank fight. Frrom what I've read it was a good win, but the score cards were shady. Also shady are some commenters who insist on pushing race and bias. Not just here but at Ring too. Comparing Tank and Loma.. I did watch Loma 's fight, and he did to Nakatani what no one before has. Was Loma's win more impressive than Tanks? I think so. Tank needs a top name at 135 to prove he is what he appears to be. Maybe Haney next, or Garcia. I think he beats both.

Also, Mayweather was actually cheered by the crowd once they showed his likeness on the jumbotron last night. He smiled. What a great card and what a great night of boxing it was?Last edited by Oldskoolg; 06-27-2021, 02:13 PM.champion4ever likes this.

You know me, I call it like it is and I don’t sugarcoat it. I don’t care what the alt right says but Mayweather was cheered because he was in Atlanta and Atlanta is a majority black city. Normally when he’s booed he is somewhere like Vegas or in california. Those who feel an ethnic link to Conor macgregor or Canelo Alvarez here in the USA are the ones booing Mayweather. Clearly he was more appreciate me among his own people. It just shows you how tribal boxing is right now. An interesting observation I made, Barrios was cheered and never booed last night. This is extremely telling about African-American fans and boxing. Caleb Plant has a huge African- American fanbase. This is why When I got to this country club fell in with majority black friends and never looked back.
