    So on your scorecard, you have Lomachenko as the undisputed champ at 135 with him coming off a close win over an undefeated Haney and dominating Kambosos.

    Lomachenko still has plenty left in him. Only Shakur can be argued as being a better fight at 135.
    Not the point.

    We have a bunch of American frauds(and Canelo) that wait for guys to get older and more wear and tear before taking the challenge.

    It's total ***** behaviour to do this rather than actively want to take the best challenges.

      Tank did wait, but it's still a good fight. Lomachenko still has a great chance at winning

        It's a decent fight now.

        But Tank's waiting out of Loma was the worst one we've ever seen. Except maybe Canelo vs GGG.

        I have no respect for this.

          Is this fight still competitive?

            Sucks that this fight came in so late, but this is the only super fight left for Tank that will sell. Shakur, Haney, etc will not do the big numbers as a Loma fight.

              Yes, Lomachenko has to fight Tank this year because he's getting older, the sooner the better for Loma. And the longer Loma waits, the higher the chance for the W is for Tank.

                Shakur ruined his own career for talking a big game and then fighting like such a coward. Nobody, not even Uncle Bob wants to see him back in the ring.

                    This is going to be a great ****ing fight.
                    Yeah the premature excuse making is weak AF.

                    They said he beat Haney and until it was time to fight Shakur, then he needed a tune up after a loss.

                    No guarantee Tank wins.

                      Bob said similar about Crawford. Then he and Spence did 700k.

                      Shakur and Tank fight, it will sell big as well.

                      Goes back to a point Floyd made about Bob years ago.
