    I do not like Romero. Not at all. But as fans, collectively we are a bunch of haters! If a guy fights a tomato can, we ***** about it. If a guy dares to be great, we ***** about it. Rolly is a man, with a professional career at stake. He's young and he pushed and pushed and pushed for this fight! And we're all clowning him. It's ridiculous. We keep mentioning "Tank should fight Haney/Lopez/Loma/RyGarcia/etc"...... well did any of those fighters push this hard to get this fight? NO. And if they wanted to, they could've. Any fighter "can". But they don't. So give Rolly SOME credit here fellas. Geez!
    Internet fans, for the most part it seems, are extremely cynical, jaded, glass half empty personalities who always know more than every other single person who follows the sport.

      In fairness, why would they continue push hard when Floyd already so no? Floyd specifically said Tank is only fighting in house fighters. Rolly is Mayweather fighter.

        Great post. A lot of these 'fans' are blinded by hate that they hardly consider this angle. Kudos.

          If Josh Taylor is not a possibility, then maybe. He can't pass up Josh Taylor for Lomachenko!

              You're not wrong. I just believe that big name fighters can fight whoever they want. If they REALLY want it. If Tank wanted to be a fighter that fought for pride, he could do that. It may come at a cost, differences with his promoter, maybe getting a new promoter, whatever it takes. But that rarely exists in the sport any longer

                Bud/Porter is a mandatory.

                  I know Garcia is up and down at the moment but not for nothing, I can't think of anyone else that has called out Tank more on social media than Ryan.

                  If you're going to say Tank fight is all that Rolly talked about, well, I personally never knew that. Though myself and everyone else that follows boxing or are on social media, knew Ryan was calling him out for a loooooooong time now.

                    How is Porter Crawfor’s mandatory - not even ranked #1 by WBO??
