    Barrios - Tank stopped him. Mario had Thurman running around the ring holding his stomach

    LSC - Future Hall of Famer. I think he's still sleep

    Romero - Fight will age in Tanks favor

    Cueller - Former champ
    Method of victory means nothing. Some people are bigger punchers than others. By your logic, Mayweather is worse than Soto Karass who KO'd Berto when Mayweather couldn't and the bum who KO'd Baldomir when Mayweather couldn't.

    Pedraza - his only top 5 ranked win. His ONLY one in nearly a decade.
    Cruz - Wasn't top 5 ranked when he fought him. Tank struggling against some unknown while he, Tank, is in his physical prime says it all.
    Barrios - Also not top 5 ranked. Tank lost half the rounds he fought him versus Thurman who won a wide majority of them.
    LSC - meh
    Romero - Another guy not even in top 10. Guy should have loss to Jackson Marinez, who loss to contender, but not champion, Commey.
    Cuellar - Near retirement, not top 5 ranked. Beating past champions means nothing if they're well past their best. Was Tyson's victory against a washed up Larry Holmes impressive?

      See the difference?
      Rigo is small naturally for his weight. I don't remember anyone making excuses when Rigo fought Amagasa:

      What about when Rigo fought Donaire? Donaire is the same size as Loma. Literally, the same size.

      I wonder why we never heard that same excuse about size when he fought them .... Hahahahaha hahahahahah

        Cruz only had two weeks to prepare he will be better in the rematch

          Richard was the IBF champion. He's not exactly a contender but a past champion. So there's no shame there.

            We are judging fighters solely off their rankings now?

            I knew Ennis and Vergil Ortiz were problems back when they were ranked #30

            One guy was talking about what Rigo did in the amateurs. Tons of guy's use to talk about what Golovkin did in sparring

            Romero had Garcia flailing in the wind during sparring

            Romero and Pitbull Cruz are problems for anyone at 135

            Say what you want about Pedraza but he had Loma looking like he was in a car accident. He barely won a round against Davis

            You talk about boxing math not being an accurate scale for judging fighters. That's correct, but then you turn around and bring up rankings as if that is

            While we're on rankings, Tank was the #1 guy at 135 and 140 according to boxrec

              Speaking of rankings, Tank is currently #1 at 135 @tritium_arma
              You do prefer to judge fighters based off rankings right?

                Tank has a solid resume. His win over Cruz will age good.

                  Tank ain't generational. Dude is 28 & ducked serious fighters like Loma.

                      Please. Loma ducked Devin Haney
