    De La Hoya was against the catchweight so it’s Ryan’s own fault for accepting it.

    But this all takes away from Tank’s win in my opinion. And that is Tank’s own fault.

        It’s pretty obvious Tank doesn’t care about legacy, just look at his resume.

        But as fans we are allowed to care about that and discuss it.

          Duarte is listed as a lightweight on BoxRec and his last 11 fights have been in that vicinity.
          Its a welterweight fight technically, but we all know guys compete a lb or even few lbs higher all the time. This isn't THAT wild lol. I mean look at the B side in this fight. Oscar is at 135 but 2 of his last 4 fights were over the 135 limit. And I'm sure no one gaf, but cuz Ryan is a big name suddenly this is some kind of big deal. Its not a big deal tho. And if it was a big deal, like some are pretending, the fight wouldn't be happening.

              And Ryan was crying all the way to the bank too. This fight might be a bad mark on Ryan's resume & he might hate that L, but it was a great result for Ryan's life. ODLH wasn't gonna get Ryan a $30M payday anytime soon.

                I get the feeling insanity is creeping into boxing more and more.

                  A boxer shouldn't gaf about legacy. Its beyond their control. Legacy oddly gets decided by people who don't box & oftentimes by people who've never boxed at all.

                    Good point??? I used to be a big RG fan but he makes it hard to root for him. He also does his trainers wrong.
