    Listen, I'm not interested in dragging this for too long, it's just not worth it. But I think you mean vast majority of non-black boxers you saw/remember. I wasn't keeping track but vast majority of experts I saw (white, black and of any other color) picked Tank. As stated before, this is reflected in the odds and through the media. Boxers are not automatically boxing experts, some of them just know how to fight, but even if they were all experts, they were obviously not the majority, otherwise the odds and media would have been way more split or had Ryan as the favorite.

    I recommend you double check the content you expose yourself to, because it might be twisting your perception of things.

      I thought Ryan Garcia was going to do better than Rolly because he's a better fighter imo with over 200 amateur fights it wasn't his night that's it. < to answer your question yesterday.
      What I want is for NSB to (finally) realize that the 'eye test' failed them. Again. And stop using it.

      There was no logical reason to believe that Ryan Garcia was going to beat this man.

      But more importantly, the fact that Rolly, who Tank said also lacked any fundamentals, was able to perform the way he did and NSB criticized that fight...that fight was actually more compelling than what Ryan just did. That's the problem. 'eye test'.

      People ignored that Ryan had NO defense and relied on speed.


      You know who else fit that?

      Amir Khan.

      Yet for this ONE guy, people bought into the hype. Why?

      Because you fell for the 'eye test'. That's the answer here. Not that "Ryan had a bad night" - no, Ryan got SCHOOLED. As he always was going to.


      We're right back to MayPac.

        You just got done seeing Andy Ruiz and Tony Bellend both (who picked Ryan if I recall) turncoat and call him a quitter.

        It doesn't matter if he quit or not.

        The bottom line is, RYAN WAS NEVER GOING TO BEAT THIS MAN. And everyone fell for that okie-doke and fast hands.

        Either that, or people hate Tank.

        Because there's no other logical reason people should have been this blind.

        That Rolly performed better than Ryan should have resulted in people on NSB and elsewhere saying, "okay, he looked good, but we (NSB) got it wrong, we underestated Tank, we're going to stop falling for eye tests and start looking for fundamentals."

        Instead, all we see are excuses.

          Well you are going on as if Tank is a defensive/offensive wizard who is unstoppable anything can happen in boxing and Tank is still proving himself at 28 years old not like he has built up a fantastic legacy so far not hating just stating facts so your "eye test" also applies to tank.

          If Tank wasn't worried about Garcia he wouldn't have put so many stipulations on him because he didn't with Barrios seems you have more faith in Tank than he has in himself.

            Tank isn't eye test because he's already gone in there and performed at the top level. Multiple times. He's the top guy. Everyone knows it. Even Ryan knew it.

            Tank can be beaten - with aggression. Not by a guy with no defense.

            The only reason Barrios did as well as he did is that Barrios kept coming and wouldn't relent. But Barrios also was defensively good in that fight, same as he was against Keef.

            Rolly was defensively decent, but he got overconfident, as many of them do.

            "Stipulations" = excuses. Ryan looked good in there, except defense.

              Well i say he is proven now for sure a lot of it is to do with not liking Tank on a personal level too so kind of like the Mayweather shtick people tuning in hoping he gets his ass beat every time aha not saying i agree with it or that it should influence peoples opinions on the fight but same is happening with Fury right now because nobody likes him he will be beaten by the next guy he fights lol it is what it is man.
