      Thing Tank has going for him is people love a KO artist and he’s got all time great power For below 140.
      Lol kills Loma they didn't wanna fight him the past 2 years for a reason. Thr only way they try and fight him now is if Loma shows his age next month. He won't be able to land those same shots on Loma or on Shakur.

        They meant it in who is the biggest draw or ppv megastar meaning not Loma nor Haney nor Shakur nor king Ryan. Just like Mayweather was the face of boxing for America, tank fits the bill perfectly. Young, urbane, the villian, undefeated, p4p one I said one of thee bests right now.

        Ryan had a lot of things going for him; image, youth, good looks, mexican long line of ancestry in the sport, positive, a winner in life and in boxing.

        Tank crushed that (dream) . I heard somewhere that kingry has 12 million fans while gervante has 4 million fans WHILE Loma with haney share just 2 million fans don't quote me.

        Ryan can move up to 140 to test the waters then fight for the championship, no lack of effort tonight, he simply just got caught with a liver shot and also keeps his head stuff straight up in the air.

        Tank has tons of options at this point. Like the commentators said he gets major love in plenty of places. Nuff said.

          i guess you are right home boy...i just don't see anyone beating him at 135-140....hate that there is rehydration clause but hate it as much as excuses hehe

            Beating a zombie opponent isn't great.

              Tank vs. current Loma, Tank wins by UD
              Tank vs. Haney, Haney wins by UD after some scary moments for him
              Tank vs. Stevenson, Stevenson wins by shutout

                Boxing needs a face and it’s up for grabs imo. Joshua, Canelo, and Fury all fumbled the ball. Someone has to be the face. Might as well be a brutal knockout puncher. Fans love knockouts. I feel like Tank could at a minimum be a top star in the States. If not THE star, he can be one of the top guys in the US. Just let the man actually fight. Don’t go all PBC and just let all of this momentum die by sitting Tank on the shelf for the next year.

                  Face of boxing doesn’t really mean the best. He’s way more popular than anyone else at 135.

                    He won't be able to land those shots on Shakur and will struggle with Huggins Haney. If Loma has anything in the Tank left his angles will give Tank madd problems.

                      Depends on how well the PPV did.
