    Tank fight makes no sense, that's 3 weight classes.

    Let Inoue clean up 122 first and if he stays, hopefully we get the Bam fight in the future.

      How about Tank getting some balls and fighting Lomachenko?

        Tank to small to fight Haney or Teo. but his idiot fans want Inoue to move from 122 to 135 to fight him. I say if you haven't boxed you should be allowed an opinion on boxing. boxing fans are embarrassing, the worst fans in sport and really least educated

            i also dont understand why people want fighters to move up when they just moved up,,,,i don't mind seeing a fighter make many title defenses ,,look at hopkins,calzaghe,finito lopez,,fight in that division against top contenders or maybe a fighter from another weight class might come along and make for a good fight,,,if you cant make weight fine but the demand to move up is crazy,maybe he doesn't want to and wants to make several defenses of his title,unify

              I think boxing fans are the most spoiled.
              We got Pacquiao climbing weights.
              We got Jones Jr going from 160 to heavyweight.
              We got Mayweather moving up to challenge De la Hoya.
              These things spoil us to the point that we deem them the norm rather than the exception.
              Just look at who gets the least praise out of the 4 Kings.
              Marvin Hagler does not get the same love as his weight jumping counterparts.

                Only newbies talk about that fight. Ridiculous.

                  Naw, these guys aren't that dumb. They just in their feelings when they have a certain disdain for fighters for no real apparent reason other than racial bias and want to see them lose, so they create these ridiculous fantasy matchups where said fighter is at a wild disadvantage so when that fighter loses, they can create the narrative that they weren't that great to begin with by losing to somebody they had no business getting in the ring with to begin with. Can't just appreciate a great fighter when they see one bc they're cheerleaders hopping on D. That's all.

                    Maybe tank should find his balls and fight Loma,teo,Haney,Shakur,rather than drag up a fighter 3 weight classes.

                      yeah I agree. but those guys were at smaller weights when they were young. then as got older, grew into it. except Duran who would just eat his way to whatever division lol. Inoue started at even smaller weight than them and has grown through multiple divisions also. even if he goes to 126 he will be quite smaller that most those guys. which he will handle imo. but 135. that weight holds alot of losses. but maybe not, that just what it seems to me. I think Hagler is beloved fighter, not only he didn't move up, but the fighters he fought were from lower weights, alot like Tank imo.
