Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: Tank Davis-Vasiliy Lomachenko Talks Could Begin This Week

[paul77]

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.

What we're getting is pretty much the same thing as Canelo-GGG.

Making it a few years earlier would have been to GGG's advantage - that's why Lomachenko fanboys are mad and making excuses already.

But Lomachenko has yet to look old in the ring - 135 has always been to big for him, but otherwise he is still as sharp.

Davis has never been within a mile of a boxer as good as current Lomachenko.

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.

Then why did TR set him up for a fight vs. Frank Martin's leftovers? Why didn't he just let him go, like he did Rigo? Bob knows Shakur is very talented and could beat his stable @ 135! That's why he's freezing him out! Bob said Crawford doesn't make money! Crawford leaves him and makes the most money he ever did, and won the fight! Bob was wrong!

I’m not arguing that Shakur isn’t talented. He clearly is very talented. However, he’s a Primadonna who lacks the heart to engage with dangerous opponents. One can only imagine how much he would run from Gervonta Davis if he was that scared stiff of De los Santos. Bob and everybody else knows that Shakur versus any dangerous opponent is very likely to be a stinker of a fight, 100% of the blame going to Shakur.

Arum gave Loma Kambo, and Navarette Berichyk, so they can get belts at 135, because of Shakur’s fight vs. De Los Santos? That’s BS!!! Why wouldn’t they at least let Shakur fight Muratalla? Nah, that’s Bob being petty, because Shakur is ready to follow in Bud’s footsteps! If Shakur is that boring, then let him go, like they did Rigo, after Rigo schooled Nonito!
