Comments Thread For: Tank: Haney Has Belts But People Don't Know Who He Is; Devin Knows I'm The Real Champ

And still we await Davis fighting for his first world title at 135. He didn't challenge Loma, Lopez, Kambosos or Haney. Which begs the question, just who are they waiting for to be a champion, before he will challenge someone?

Tank is the seat filler and money man at 135 but make no mistake Haney is the champ

Tank is speaking facts. As long as he's whooping ass and getting paid he is the true champion at 135

Just when you thought this pos said the dumbest things possible he still manages to outdue himself. Fact Haney has all the belts. Fact Porky is the fake belt king. Meaningless fights for life.

Devin would confuse you and with fair scoring win a decision Imo.

He is certainly more popular. Good for him.

I hope this does not end up like all the talent at 147 and only a handful of good fights were made among them. These guys are all young, but I am worried none of the top 135 warriors will ever truly mix it up.

Davis don't seem in a hurry to petition WBA for his shot at the real title.

No, Haney beat the man who beat the man, etc. While Haney was winning the real title, you have been collecting phony belts cherry picking safe opponents.

Everyone is complaining about who he fought like as if all the other guys at 135 were fighting each other. We've watched about 2 or 3 meaningful fights in the division in about 4 years, the main 2 being Lopez-Loma and Haney-Kambosas. The one common ingredient is that they were all in-house Top Rank fighters. Arum has been in control of the belts, and decided who would receive the shots, which is why Haney signed a 3 fight contract with Top Rank, in order to be first in line for Loma or Kambosas.

After Loma turned down the fight, and headed for Ukraine, of course, Haney gets the first opportunity. Meanwhile, Tank was being led and steered by Floyd, who showed him the route to become the most popular, highest paid attraction in the division, while gradually bringing him along to be able to control his own destiny once he reaches the top.

Tank grew tired of waiting, broke off on his own, and is fighting Ryan and called out Haney and Shakur by the end of the year. I'd say that he's doing everything anyone else in the division would aspire to. He's the highest paid, the most popular, and as long as he takes care of the line up he has coming up, he will have the best resume. But, unfortunately, some will still complain, per the status quo.

No, that's a fact. But the more worrying thing is, why are the WBA in no hurry to order his consolidation fight against Haney? That, and Spence at 147 will be the last 2. I think we all know why.

Tank is a boxing attraction like Butterbean was.
