Hate this fraudulent tactic of waiting for guys to get older.

Not sure Tank and Loma fight is even more lucrative now, probably would have made more money back in the day.

You are right. The fight doesn't make more money now but in Tank's case it doesn't matter. He just want that feather in his cap that he defeated Loma.

Say what you will about this fight. It will be a lot better than Tank vs Frank thats for sure.

and whatever you say about this match. You'll be watching it, just like the rest of us boxing fans.

Lomachenko is turning out to be a B level fighter. Lost to Teofimo lopez, Jermaine Ortiz and Devin Haney. Abdul would stop him in late rounds.

All those fighters will never reach Lomas level. Loma is going straight to the HOF. What realy help them was their youth and SIZE, not the skills.

This will be good retirement money for Loma. If he beats Tank, it will more of an accomplishment than being Undisputed vs Haney, which I thought he won.

Truth. In our lifetime we will never see anyone that’s comes near the skill level of lomachenko and Usyk. Maybe the two most skilled fighters ever or damn close to it.

As good as Vadilly has been, his best days are behind him and Tank would handle him without too much difficulty once he figures him out. Not a great matchup. Better match, Tank vs Teo because Teo fights to the level of his opponent and only had problems with movers. Teo won’t need to go looking for Tank which makes for an interesting fight.

Its not fraudulent it happens in the background of pretty every fighter, fights arent drawn out of a hat they are chosen for one reason or another, for fans its not worth whining about its a bit like crying over spilt milk.

I don't mind the fight at all, both are in great form and it could be a case with old Lion is still right there or a young lion gets handed the torch.

Sounds like Tank feels Lomachanko is old enough and Bob Arum is ready to cash him out...a real win win for Gervonta and Arum.

The fraud stops very soon. In a year or two fraud behaviour like this will be a thing of the past.

Can you imagine what would happen in the UFC if a number 1 contender refuses to fight a champion because he had a bigger fan base? Lmao

I keep seeing two different scenarios in my mind which means unless something looks different in their weigh-ins or otherwise, I'm stuck right in the middle on who I think wins.
