    Espn and hbo market “ Mexican warriors” and Mexican action. Are those fans morons to for paying their money to see lesser talented boxers?

    How are Cruz and Barrios nobodies?
    "Rankings" aside,who have they beaten to suggest they aren't? Cruzs only notable win was a shot to shiet Vargas who was annihilated by Berchelt and Barrios had already got his ass beat by a club level fighter in Akmedov.

      So what you are saying is I am wrong and Tank and his handlers are actively trying to get the fights against the champions or Loma or Teo? You know, the ones considered and ranked as the best.

      The difference between Kambosos being as much of an under dog to Teo as Cruz was to Tank is Kambosos was a mandated fight for world titles. Teo didn't pick Kambosos he was mandated to fight him. Can you say the same for Tank, did some governing body rule that Tank had to fight Cruz? Or Romero?
      What I am saying is Teo lost to Kambosis, Loma lost to Teo, and there isn’t one bit of factual evidence that Tank is being blocked from a fight with Kambosis by Floyd. None.

      Rolly was the #1 ranked wba contender and mando to Tank’s “belt”. Tank was making his mando same as Teo. You only faulted Tank. You didn’t know Rolly was the mando?

      When Rolly got in his situation Cruz, a more respected opponent was picked. He was then labeled as a bum because according to many ( I forget if you were one of them) “Haymon only gives Hispanics fights for them to lose”.

      The facts here show you and others judge Tanks opponents by your narrative, not their talent, skill or ability to force it into the “Tank isn’t fighting anyone” narrative.

      Tank, not any of the other top LW’s except Haney, are fighting anyone out of promotion.

      Floyd was at least honest about it. Bob is doing the same thing. You and others say nothing.

      I’m just asking you why and you will not answer.If I’m with wrong, explain how I am missing things.

        Triangle theories are not how we judge quality opposition. Styles make fights, not previous opponents.

        You’re opinions of who they beat and fought are in a vacuum. Maybe they got better.

        Again I’m not suggesting they are hofer or ATG. Just solid opponents.

          Lol you still pretending Tank is the WBA champ? I always have plenty to say about Arum, he is every bit as toxic as Haymon.

          We both remember what Floyd said about inhouse and not helping other promoters and he is being true to his word. Honest of him but it dint make it any less of a scum bag move.

            Not sure what his game plan is moving forward. If he won’t fight Loma, Kambosos, Lopez, or Haney at 135, and won’t go near Taylor at 140, then who is he fighting? Ryan Garcia is the only name left that can sell fights.

                  Too many complications for this fight to even get into negotiation phase.
                  For one, it's outside of the US and TMT can't be the one dictating terms,
                  which is a no no for Mr Floyd/Haymon/PBC, what have you.
                  Unless, of course, PBC makes bigger offer than the one available
                  for Kambosos down under. Waste of time even thinking about this fight.

                  More realistic fights to make for Tank are with Garcia, Haney,
                  would be a miracle if they'll even consider Loma.
