Comments Thread For: Mayweather: They Don't Wanna See Tank Win Because They Feel Like It's Beatin' Me

In other words, keep having Fraud and PBC continuing to cherry pick nondescript Mexicans for Stank to fight, instead of having him fight Haney, Loma, or Kambosas, or other "athletic black boxers".

Sorry you feel LSC, Barrios, and Pitbull, are just "nondescript Mexicans!" That's sad! I hope Barrios whoops Thurman's ass! However I do feel that Fulton vs. Figueroa should've been in Philly! I feel Tank vs. Cruz should've been in DC or Baltimore! I do think Floyd should've reached out to Haney instead of Ryan Garcia! I would've rather Tank vs. GRJ, than Issac Cruz! If Chris Colbert beats Roger Gutierrez, i'd like to see that fight at Barclay's! Haters are gonna hate regardless, and 50% of that hate is due to Floyd! "Cinco de Mayweather"was disrespectful, but it made Floyd a ton of money! That formula won't work for Tank! I still think there's a chance the WBA orders Tank vs. Kambosos, but if not, I would love Tank vs. Prograis @ 140, or Tank vs. Colbert or GRJ @ 135!

These are rumors Floyd Mayweather is in the verge of suing Al Haymon because Al owes Mayweather millions of Dollars and Floyd was mad because Al Haymon paid Canelo 50 million dollars for the plant fights. Now it all makes sense as to why Floyd Mayweather has been hating on Canelo more than usual

dayum , that's juicy stuff. Keep on digging MexiFistology.

Well match him against somebody worth a damn and people will chill with the criticism. You can't carry on your own damn campaign within the division and act like the victim when people call you out for not matching him against other top lightweights.

The top Lightweight is STILL Lomachenko and he isn't even champion. Check that out! Lol. Teo beat him, flaunted the belts and got canned on his first defense. Ryan is just....whatever. Tank is great at putting on big events but he still hasn't dine **** at 135. Haney is....well, he's probably another guy who likes the idea of being champion but hasn't done much either.

Loma is the man and the Kambosos fight makes more sense while Tank and the others do whatever they've been doing.

Agreed but I think it goes much deeper than that. There are intense tribal wars going on in boxing due to the nationalism/populism culture that is so strong in the world today. If tank were with arum, DLH, or Hearn he wouldn’t be hated as he is with Haymon and Floyd

Stop taking Tank "to Mexico!" You want people to cheer for Tank, have Tank fight where his people are! Bring Mexico to ATL, Charlotte, or the DMV!

Total agreement. There is a reason promoters like Boricua fighters fighting in NY/NJ, Mexican fighters in LA and San Antonio etc etc. have tank fight where his fan base is…..Baltimore, Atlanta, Houston, hell test out Detroit and Cleveland/Cincinnati as well

Brooklyn, DC, Maryland, ******ia, Charlotte, and Atlanta! Maybe Chicago in the Midwest? Just because it made Floyd a lot of money, doesn't mean it's going to work for Tank!

Anyone that knows me here knows I'm one of Fraud Jr's biggest detractors (Pac fight or not). That is hilarious because I've honestly never even had that in my mind since watching Tank. In fact, I don't care if he loses or wins, I enjoy his fights thus far.

Fraud really loves to make everything about him though doesn't he? Again, I never even had this thought in my head when watching Tank but now it might just be there, lol.

My only critique on Tank so far is he needs better fights with bigger names. So far he's gone mostly the path of least resistance. I'd like to see him in with some lively dogs. I know Cruz turned out to be one but until we saw him against Tank, we didn't know that. We also know, Cruz was running on a higher gear in terms of trying to win than Tank was because Tank didn't really know the guy that well. It was Cruz moment to shine more so.

I don't know the barbershop conversations but I might look it up I mostly get my boxing info from boxers/promoters etc. I know or the most knowledgeable gentlemen in the whole internet, that being my Boxingscene brothers.

I might look it up, don't mess with Floyd's millions, that's a death threat.

I'd be happy to see Tank win AGAINST TOP COMPETITION. I said similar things about Deontay Wilder, and we saw how that turned out. Just winning isn't enough. It has to be against top competition.
