    Is he dying or was he dying?

    Its unclear to me if this dude gots stage 4 liver cancer rn or if he had something wrong with him & he got better. The one interview I saw with Turki he mentions the health stuff & the interviewer jumps over it so he either sucks or Turki said he didnt wanna dive deeper into it pre-interview.

    I did notice in old pics I saw of him recently he looked more overweight.

      Yes, Tank will fight Haney, for sure. At 130, with rehydration clause.

        Looks like he had/has some type of cancer. This is from 2020.

            I'm not sure he has enough money to convince Davis to fight someone with a pulse.

                These soap operas of boxing are wearing thin for me. The games they play are getting far away from a competitive sport.

                  tank should have smashed haney at 135 if he could, undisputed still does actually mean something in this sport and he would have had a 1 fight shot at it and mega cash im sure, the saudis would have to open the flood gates for tank i would say to fight haney at 140, just cant see it at all, if tanks aim is just to make the max money then he should take the saudi offer actually, if his aim is big cash and his 0 then probably not

                      I’ll back tank to win if it happens. If it does though I expect either tank to demand rehydration clause or his quadruple excellency puts so much money down tank willing to fight devin at any weight. I reckon Floyd will tell tank to demand a silly number.
