    Only reason Floyd is blocking Gervonta vs Kambosos is

    Is that they don't want to dealing with mandatories from Haney and Lomachenko and other fighters , Don't expect Gervonta to fight any of these top fighters anytime soon

    They have their business model figured out for Tank, they'll keep putting him in PPVs with whoever and people will keep buying them. If you can sell a guy like Cruz and get 50k buys that's probably good enough money for them not to really care about the 125k or so they might get fighting Haney instead.

      Also PBC/Floyd would never let one of their “premier” fighters out of America.

        Why would they?

        They are making money with the midget fighting no ones.
        As soon as that midget is in with a good fighter he might get F up and then they will loose tons of money.

            Tank has the most uninteresting career of any top level guy, maybe only Boo Boo ranks over him there.

              The only thing worse than posters that make up stuff is when posters co-sign it without any evidence to support just because it involves Floyd.

              There is nothing we’ve seen that suggests Floyd or any promoter is blocking any boxer from a fight with Kambosis.

              I haven’t seen any reports ( if it happened please post) that Kambosis offered Tank a fight and was rejected.

              Floyd stated the “in house” fights only plan for Tank last year, I haven’t read or seen anything from him about a Kambosis/Tank fight. Has anyone?

              Let’s see what happens but let’s not make 2022 the same as the past couple years where lies are made up out of boredom.

                And hopefully the past few years arent like theyve been with Davis fighting for bs trinkets instead of fighting top 5 guys at 135 and 140

                  The 50k buys is a random number an internet troll made up. Showtime publicly confirmed the fight did 100k on digital alone. The fight likely did close to 200k overall. Maybe 175k at worse.

                    Yea we’d all prefer that but if it doesn’t happen let’s just not make things up about blocking and ducking just to force them into a narrative.
