    Tank is the money man. It's up to him to make this fight. You know he isn't going to make it, right?

      u just have to shake your head, its as if he someone just rediscovered the wheel or something
      Genuine question, what's your point?

      Are you saying making weight is part of the game? Doesn't affect people? Not sure what you're saying...

        Yeah he will be hof if he isn't already. But, now there's speculation he could beat Boots and Bud - let's be clear, this was a 10/10 performance against a good but not great fighter - rougarou is not headed for hof

          Haney is good make no mistake but calling this a masterclass is misleading. Regis is 35yo as far as I know and I didn't like the version of him I saw in his last fight. it wasn't either a 50/50 fight either. He was a betting favorite for a reason thought. So, at the end of the day he beat an inferior fighter at the back end of his career. Now can he replicate that with Subriel Matias, Tank Davis or Boot Ennis at 147? If you have the answer, just let me know.

            i think thats self explanatory actually

            this is from experienced boxing people and hes claiming that, the average joe on the street may even know this

              Haney would easily beat any 140 pounder just as easy as Prograis. He will become Undisputed in this weightclass too if he doesn't move up to 147.

                Nah, love Haney but Bud? Nah. Boots I highly doubt it. Maybe 3/4 years

                  Haney is NOT levels above Tank hahaha. What are y’all smoking man. I thought the hate for Haney was a lot! But if we’re talking about Haney being so much better than Tank, then Tank is getting the real hate!

                  sure Haney is accomplishing a lot more in the sport as far as belts and resume. But Tank is better overall. And I don’t even think it’s close. I DO believe that Tank struggles head to head against Haney tho. The height and length would cause problems. But if they fight 10 times I say Tank wins 6 to 4. If one fighter is “levels above” another, it would be like 10 out of 10 thing. But that just ain’t true
