    Accurate indeed, Floyd made much more money when he was able to leave Top Rank.

    A fantasy fight thought, prime Pretty Boy or Money Mayweather vs Tank. Floyd by comfortable unanimous decision.

      That's a really classy statement by Floyd.

        Mayweather didn't believe enough in Tank, to make the fight's that would've propelled him to megastar status.

          He would at least be at the level of Ryan Garcia, who does not have a belt either! Actually, I feel if he was with Floyd, he would've had a title fight in 2021!

            Floyd & Leonard have been terrible and hasn't lasted as a promoter/manager have they, name one fighter! Gervonta was established already, Ishe Smith was limted, Badou Jack was his best most recent decorated fighter but none where near great. Understand this, Ryan has his own following on social media and the looks to get him where he's at. Jerron will get there he just have to show up and show out when a title fight takes place, but Floyd not the answer and with his arrogance would never be!

              i agree with you.

              But Tank wasn't already established. He never even had a headline fight pre mayweather promotions. Floyd made him a main event fighter.

                Stank's career sucks because of Gayweather.

                  I'm ready to be a Tank fan. All he has to do is beat some top talent. Enough with the smaller guys moving up, and Ryan Garcia is largely unproven. I was the same way with Deontay Wilder. Beat some top talent. In Wilder's case, it never happened.

                    btw, did he say it through gritted teeth?
                    Now do Top Tank.

                      When he 1st fought on TV he wasn't signed to Mayweather in fact he had a few fights on cable networks before fighting under Floyd, do your research. He didn't fight PayPer View until Floyd but he was already known through Adrien Broner who brought him to the forfront not Floyd!
