The Honest Truth About 135

[Mammoth]

We don't know till we know. I don't think anyone at 135 is worth hating so all the emotional investment I see all the time is a little weird to me.

what has tank done to be put into the conversation with all those other guys? its a little strange how people talk about him like hes a top fighter when hes never fought any top fighters, never fought any mid-level fighters, and has looked quite bad especially at 135.

I agree with this, everyone at 135 has shown a lot of weakness and vulnerability even against not great comp. It's not like Floyd when he was just outboxing the **** out of these guys, outlining them 25 punches to 3 each round, none of these guys are doing that.

The truth about 135 is that its got AA's, latino, euro & aussie in the mix which makes for a more interesting mix and better fights imo, the more regions involved the better for the sport

Going all out for Loma still I see

Going all out for Loma still I see

not going for anyone. respect is earned not given. loma has 4 top 5 wins and 6 top 10 wins at 135 with another close loss to a #1 ranked opponent. lopez has 2 top 5 wins. kambosos has a win over the #1 guy, haney has 2 top 10 wins and garcia has a top 5 win. tank has 1 top 10 win and it was somewhat debatable which is why i question him being in this group.
