    No. I like Lomachenko, he’s a Slav like my dad. But he was a bit overhyped and he’s past his prime now. Tank by TKO.

      Haney calls the shots. Haney - Loma is probably next.

      Tank is losing his career.

        Yes or no, what difference does it make when certain stars in the sky have to align perfectly before the fight gets made?

        One group of fans would predict, "Davis beats Lomachenko." While another group would say the opposite. And they'll be content with that even if the fight don't get made. That's all there is to it. It's a fantasy sport. They'll believe it. Fight doesn't have to happen.

          Tank is far from a "cash cow"regardless of division. Theres only 2 cash cows in boxing at the moment and thats Canelo and Joshua. Haney vs Tank, Ryan or Loma would all be on par with one another and most meaningful because of Haneys belts.

          Tank vs Ryan is easily be the biggest,most profitable fight at 135 bar none.

            Biggest fight at 135 would either be Tank v Garcia or Loma v either of them. Haney is a talented boxer, but he's not going to be a PPV star or fan favorite that puts asses in seats.

              Nah, the big fights are Loma vs any of the others cause Davis is a b!tch and been duckin Loma for almost 8 years and refuses to fight him and any of the other guys too

                Not even close. Davis' credit is almost done. Make Lomachenko vs Haney. Despite I hate Haney's style, he is the man at 135.

                  Tank is the biggest earner in the division. That is why I called him that. I was in no way implying he was on the level of Canelo and AJ.

                  I disagree. Tank is the draw. If he tried to get the belts or fought the next biggest draw I believe theyd both be bigger than a Loma fight.

                  I disagree. Ryan isnt moving units like that. He’s got a huge social media following- but dazn subs aren’t up because of him.

                  Lets hope they all fight so we can see which one of us is correct.

                    Guess it depends on what "Biggest" means. The very best fight in terms of build up, sales, strategy and probable action is Loma/Tank.

                    Biggest so far as belts is either Loma/Haney or Tank/Haney.

                    Ryan is done at 135 and Haney will be soon. Maybe they can have a showdown at 140 if Ryan can keep it together.

                      Is Tank really the biggest earner though? Haneys last gauranteed purse was 8mil,Lomas is at $4mil now. Ryan's was $2mil and by all accounts Tanks was $2mil. His ppv's buys have been subpar not to mention there's no way of verifying his cut/percentage.

                      I really dont know what kind of subscriptions Ryan has brought to DAZN but i do know PBC's insistence to keep Tank on an island will hurt his appeal/draw with the masses If he doesn't land a big fight soon,if not already. His PPV buys have decreased with each subsequent figh. Haney,Ryan will outgrow the division in 1 or 2 fights leaving Loma as Tanks only credible dance partner. If Mayweather lets that ship sail and thier reluctance to go up to 140,Tank will be in everyone elses rearview mirror by late next year.
