    Russell just wants to cash out. It’s a shame cause he’s a very talented fighter. Could have achieved a lot more around his natural weight of 126. He has no business fighting a power punching lightweight like Tank though.

      That fight would be big (ish). I wouldn't be interested but it would sell.

        Russell’s not defensively sound either. All he does is put up his hands and hide behind his guard. The man couldn’t slip a punch if his life depended on it. Other than hand speed I don’t see much to his game.

        Also I see Russell as a clout chaser. He’ll run his mouth about this guy and that guy but when it comes down to it he’ll fight someone ordinary.
        He’s boring. Not his fighting style but his rap…he really needs to quit clinging to other fighters.

          Won’t happen…Davis/Floyd wont risk that 0. Will keep lining up the mismatches against b-level fighters with HISPANIC last names to sell the ppv..cant do it w/o hispanic fans…its the Pbc/Floyd formula.

            Why hasn't Russell vs. Vargas been announced yet?

              Davis vs. Russell Jr @ 130! That's Legendary! Davis vs. Russell Jr. @ 135! I'll take it, but it's not the same! Colbert vs. Russell Jr. @ 130! PERFECT!

                Tank isn't going to lose to a career featherweight

                  Yes he’s a clout chaser.

                    I think that's where it would have to be. Don't see Gervonta fighting at 130 anymore. Russell is just all bark tho.

                      Gary has some truth to some of the things he’s saying and make some valet points, but ain’t nobody running or scared of your little ass. He’s actually one of my favorite technicians when he’s fighting but dam, he only fights every 2 years against non descript fighters. The last time we seen him in with experience he got his ass kicked, and promised no matter what weight Lomachenko goes to he want his revenge, I think his heart has changed his mind! Them Russell’s can fight so you have to bring your A game, but Gervonta not what he want to see at 135, his little ass weighin and pick up 5 Lbs Gervonta will be between 145-150, mess around and your career at 33 will be over for real!
