    I'd like to see canelo lose cause I'm tired of his cherry picking, but I doubt charlo is gonna b the one to beat him. He struggled with castano and canelo is levels above castano.
    Not in speed and footwork. Castano was able to pressure Jermell and stay in his chest to smother his offense for awhile because of the quickness of his foot movement. Eventually, Jermell was able to create the space he needed and find the openings to land the shots that broke Castano down and ended the fight.

    Cinnabon is a slow, flatfooted plodder that tries to get close by using a high guard and walking through his opponent's punches. Charlo can use his height reach, and footwork advantages to attack from angles with movement, while not lingering in the pocket unless he wants to. Cinnabon has stamina issues and will eventually gas out, and receive the beats in embarrassing fashion until the final bell rings.

      Unfortunately...Yes. I would rather Tank fight Shakur, Haney, or Martin, but Tank knows that Mexican fan base will pay BIG to see Pitbull. Easy to sell, especially if Pitbull gets the KO on a PPV fight! They will play the fact that Pitbull had a short notice, etc., etc.! Personally I don't like it because Cruz SWERVED Stevenson!

      Hopefully Martin does well and gets Zepeda. I know he approached Zepeda and Oscar for the opportunity. They said he was respectful and they appreciated his approach, so I hope it gets done.

        16 out of his last 17 opponents have been latin/hispanic. Liam Walsh from the uk was the only exception.
        Russell jr, Lomachenko, Haney, Teofimo, Taylor, Kambosos, Prograis all were relevant while tank was jumping up and down between 130 and 140 and he chose none of them. Sound like a cherry picker to me
        I believed at first it was Floyd who picked his opponents.
        Later on when May got busy with his exhibition fights, Ellerbe took over.
        Since then, Ellerbe has been dictating who he fights next, and it's not far-fetched
        he doesn't like the idea of pitting black vs black.
        That is, unless public demand can no longer be ignored like the Haney fight.

        And Tank is back in Leonard's loving arms. He's the architect of all these weight stipulations
        and many A-side advantages Tank has been enjoying.

        If that is the case, then the Isaac Cruz rematch is going to happen next with absolute certainty,
        as others have mentioned.

          I have no doubt pitbull is next, they only fight Hispanics. So there it is

          But we all know Haney should be next.

            Haney is out of his TR contract as well as Teo Lopez's.
            Ball sits comfortably in the PBC premises when it comes to these 2 fights for Tank Davis.
            No other promotional outfit other than PBC is expected to send offers to these 2 guys.
            The "wrong side of the street" excuse can't be used in these 2 cases.
            But, you're right, the Pitbull rematch has to happen first for Ellerbe/Tank.

            Interestingly enough, PBC is the only one that can make the Teo Lopez vs Devin Haney fight, if they're interested.
            Lopez will never fight on DAZN because he's still of the belief he got robbed in the Kambosos fight.

              I agree.

              I don't understand team tank. The legacy fights are right there for him as the A side and they keep passing them up. And Tank is the favorite in all of these fantasy fights. So I don't get it.

                The show Tank and Pitbull put on before the 1st fight says it all. These 2 are going to fight again IMHO. The animosity was so fake it was laughable.

                  No , Cruz neither is huge money , or has a belt.
                  People make way too much out of him giving a one armed Tank a pretty good fight.

                    So who do you think Tank Davis will fight next if you're so sure it won't be Isaac Cruz II. You mind sharing a guess brother? Just a guess.
