    Lets put rankings a side...
    Valdez, Herring, Robson who of them three would you legitimately favour to beat LSC, Pitbull, Ryan, Kambosos Jr, Linares, Lomachenko, Rollie, Pedraza, Pitbull?

      From a rankings standpoint sure but it'd no doubt also be one of Tanks easiest fights.
      Tank would absolutely flatten Valdez.

      And I don't think a single person would give Tank any credit even if Valdez was #1 ranked and in fairness I wouldn't either.

        Shakur is a great boxer, the pride of his family, and a one time entrant of Nash Out's top 10 P4P list. Nash out - Nash is a Boxingscene Hall of Famer and a helluva poster, who resides in England.

          I don't know if he's overrated.
          Maybe he's just naturally the most skilled in the division he's been in and in the platform where he fights.
          I myself have grown tired of seeing him dominate one fighter after the other. And I thought he's in the Arum protection program.
          In other words, he fought everyone that is put in front him. No ducking, unlike others. He gladly took every fight available.
          Pitbull and Zepeda said no to his invitation. So I can't really say any dismissive comment about his run so far.
