    Mad to me how Tank is getting more bigged up than Haney who is actually trying to make the big fights while Tank fights nobody. Sad how much fans care about their favorite fighters money i wouldn't give a **** if he out sold Mayweather if he doesn't fight anybody.

      Lots of talk from a guy that stinks out old names on the downside. Haney isn't fighting Shakur, he's small but dangerous but you can expect the hug fest to continue at 140 with guys on the slide like Ramirez and Taylor.

      Watch and see....

        u have the keys alrite but u are getting too big to fit in the door maybe & some guy is looking to pickpocket u too

        this is a great chance for haney to put in a performance & say to tank lets rumble for all the belts, u bring those fans of yours and we will make a fair deal

        if loma does somehow manage to beat haney we will probably hear im struggling with weight time to move up now, same as teo maybe

          That's exactly what I said, in other word's.

            I do agree with you. Haney is going to get a lot to handle. He must be in his best condition otherwise he might get knocked out in the late rounds. So, it's a 50/50 fight imo.

              I think Shakur is a bigger "star" than Haney! These last couple of fights, Shakur has been right there in the pocket, and dominating too! That's why I feel Tank should try to make the fight with Shakur ASAP!
              Shakur is certainly a great boxer, though his chin hasn't really be tested. He can outbox Haney and Tank but Tank does have 2 major weapons vs both of them, namely a great chin and greater pops. And he also has a great conditioning. So, I will pick Tank to beat Haney and Shakur if they fight.

                That can very well be bull****, because Eddie Hearn is the one that put that out, but how can you be sure of that?
                Hearn has already signed Prograis to a three fight contract, and he's actively trying to sign Matias, do you really think that's just a coincidence, I don't.
                Prograis is stilled pissed off that Matias called him out a few time's on social media, Matias still want's to fight him, Hearn has one fighter signed, and is trying to sign the other.
                That sound's to me like Hearn heard all of the hoopla on social media, and has decided to sign them both to make this fight, that in 2 or 3 fight's into the future will a huge fight.
                Hearn is hoping to make the same kind of big money fight that he had off of Taylor vs Serrano, by recently signing Berlanga who in his third fight with Matchroom Boxing will be fighting Canelo.
                Like I said before it's all predicated on these fighter's remaining on a winning track, which is no guarantee considering all of these 6 fighter's their age's, fighting style's, or wear and tear.
                If Hearn is able to sign Matias, then I believe that's exactly the way this is going to play out, if that doesn't make any sense to you, then I don't know what else to say that I think your wrong on this one.
                There are quite a few fight's for these fighter's to win in the lead up to these plan's unfolding as expected, so as they say the best laid plan's of mice, and men often go astray.
                Those fight's might just not ever happen, I for one hope that they do, because I believe that they will be plenty of fire work's in each of those matches.

                  I wouldn't say 'mad', I'd say 'revealing'. They're easily fooled and easily led.

                    I see the plan, and I dislike the plan! Prograis made it sound like the plan is fighting Matias toward the end of the 3-year deal! Unacceptable!

                      Can’t believe Loma is an underdog here. Age is catching up and we know that age plays a bigger factor in the smaller divisions. Would love to see Loma win but I also like Haney. He’s grown on me. He’s a respectful and talented fighter. Can’t wait to see this fight!
