    Why do Tank victims Ryan and Rolly get put in league with world class fighters?

    Really, what impressive notable wins do either of them really have? Is Ryan just popular because teen girls on IG like him? Rolly just because he's and arrogant prick everyone loves to hate?

    I wouldn't even call them prospects, they're in no way in the conversation as it pertains to top tier fighters just media hype jobs.

    They gained popularity when they faced him. High profile fights.

      That's straight bs. Romero is a loudmouth moron that can hype a fight and cryan has a huge social media following which is why the stank ppv numbers were his best

          Because they're former Tank opponents. This is why Barrios keeps getting PPV fights when more talented PBC fighters don't get fights at all.

          They've given Pitbull a steady diet of "good look opponents" too.

            So be on the social media sites

            don’t fight real threats

            have a new Justin beiber fool hold your belts

            wow

            i propose Google or Bill gates create a belt where boxing fans can compel boxers to fight

            and Bob Arum and PBC have no say in the matches we want to see

            imsvjne the fights we’d get if these layers of money grubbing putos get outta the way

              Why is Davis fighting NON world class fighters after beating them scrubs? When's the last time Davis fought a legit world champ? 10 years as a pro and only legit titles are at 130lbs

                Garcia at least beat some decent fighters like Campbell and Fortuna but I don't think anybody is putting him in league with world class fighters. Especially after his loss to Tank.

                Rolly? Nobody ever put him in league with world class fighters did they? But yeah, being American and reasonably known will lead to you being over rated by some.

                  He is, Tank is a real world class talent with skills. I don't get the impression some motivated journeyman could beat him like I do with Ryan or Rolly. You have to have real skills and talent to beat Tank.

                    hes been in the limelight headlining cards for 6 years now and hes never fought a top 5 fighter. something is definitely up and they know it. we all know he ducked loma which is fine but he also ducked guys like tevin farmer and alberto machado. red flags going off everywhere if those guys are too dangerous. now that they have the juice they are only fighting teeny tiny men moving up or draining guys. more red flags. the only solid contender they fought lately was isaac cruz(late replacement didnt want him) and tank barely won if at all. he seems like another berto/broner, but a berto/broner with better protection and safer opponent selection would be a tank davis is another way of putting it
