    I think both can beat him by fighting on the outside and using their length.
    Check my post above mate. Pretty much explains why I favour Shakur to beat Tank but not Haney.

      His ring IQ seems to be judged by his look, background and out of ring garbage.
      Good point.
      Tank is a really smart high IQ fighter definitely.
      Which is why I have stood on for a long time now that Tank needs to step it up in competition.

        Tank's ring iq relies on him setting up a lethal punch to stop his opponents and he doesn't care if he wins rounds in the meantime

        He will meet someone one day who'll stand up to his punch and bag in rounds and easily ud him
        Well said man.
        Which is why I feel Tank will stay away from them type of fighters

          Haney isn’t technically skilled enough IMO. He’s very long and athletic, got very good feet too but once you close the gap he’s not that difficult to hit.

          JoJo Diaz was touching Haney up regularly and he’s a flat footed fighter. Tank would get inside the jab and send him to the moon with a big left hand.

          I’ll have a big bet on Tank KO if that fight ever happens- would still like to see it though, I’ve been wrong before about fights.
          Nah bro. Shakur can fight on the inside quite well, did it to Herring, Nakatani, etc. Shakur though is not foolish enough to just ****, he's too smart for that.
          I feel your point though.
          I get it though, you talking about Haney.

                      Now that we saw Tank win this lopsided easily predictable fight,
                      Do you think Shakur or Haney have a better chance at beating Tank?
                      Do you think Tank chooses another opponent who is quite 'winable' again?
                      Good question. I don't know much about Shakur, but Haney would be a great match up. Is Haney's jab good enough to keep Tank on his back foot? Can haney score with the jab and get off line so he is not countered? Can Devin control Tank in the clinch? If Haney is able to do these things I think he can beat Tank.
