    Tank had his time and did his thing but it’s time for him to retire like he said he would.

      It's simple. Regular Davis wants Saudi money, but he doesn't want Saudi matchmaking.
      Yes, exactly. Turki ain’t Al Haymon lol!

        Maybe Tank is just waiting for them to catch Jamal Kashoggi’s killers before he fights over there

            So Davis couldn't hide behind the Al Haymon network anymore and retires when Turki orders a difficult fight.

              He had a deal to fight Loma until he backed out. It appears Tank and his team can try to make the fights people want to see without Turkish.

              Now if Turkish can get Loma to step up and fight- great.

                Tank makes good money without needing Turki. He doesn't make Canelo type money but good money none the less.

                  Tank pretending to take a stand while he is just afraid to face top competition is just laughable at this point.

                    Who cares about all the money blablabla?! If you are a boxing fan, you want to see the best fights out there, period. Like any other sport, professional boxing should be about challenging yourself and getting the most out of your abilities.

                    And the truth is that Tank Davis has not given that to the fans throughout his career. It's depressing, because I think he would beat almost everyone out there (I do think Shakur would speed through to a win, but we'll never know because that fight will probably never be made).

                    Davis should be a deadlock for the Hall of Fame by now, but he isn't because he has chosen the easy fights. What a waste of talent.

                      Turki doesn't need to know anything about the Sport / Business of boxing to do things , he can hire people who do know. That said , I don't like the league ideas .
