    The key word was fighter not boxer. Tank is a good boxer but great fighter. 2 totally different things there.

      Why has "I aint gonna lie" become such a popular expression?
      Because lying is so common, and so is saying "honestly" or "ima be honest" and then lying.

      I noticed my kid saying that the other day. I reminded him that when you say "honestly" it ought to make me wonder what youre being all the rest of the time.

      You ever watch that show First 48? Oh how many times suspects say "to be honest" and then lie through their teeth.

        Just discredit the man's boxing skills although he's been doing it since seven years old. There's a reason he's able to set up these fighters for vicious KOs when he's always at a height and arms length disadvantage.

            Its not like that because of the belt, they want star power and PPVs that come along with fighting him, and just maybe they could edge out a win, which would take them even farther in leverage for future fights and purses.

              Garcia has a 140 lber frame not Tank. He's tall with broad shoulders and probably walks around at 145 or more.

                He must have something though as I note Floyd Mayweather Jr scoured the USA for young boxing talent and Gervonta was his number one.

                  And Tank walks around at 160 or more so what's your point? Leo was the "taller" fight as well but it was clear he was the "smaller" non puncher. Same here.

                    Tank doesn't walk around even close to that, his 5'5 could never hold it and attempt to get back to 135 and in shape. Leo is tall but built much differently than Garcia. Hector is more muscular and broad, whereas Leo is slim and narrow. Even so, Leo should be fighting at least 130, but he drains himself to keep his natural advantages of height, length, and being the bigger man. Garcia does the same.

                      So you think Tank puts on what 10-15lbs?? Give me a break lol.Tank has mever been known to be a gym rat between fights ,no different than Mikey or Broner who pack on the weight. I gaurantee you he hits 160 easily.
