Tank is a local attraction and a boxing fans type fighter, not a huge superstar.

because he’s built like a dwarf

must be exceptionally great fighter for people to care if < 5 ft 6

Nobody asked for that fight and no one wanted to see it. That’s what the promoters get. Let that be a lesson to them.

However, with all the controversy in the first fight I bet the rematch sells a little better.

Also have to fight opponents people know or care about.

That's basically what his fights usually do though. He's been between 200K and 350K buys for EVERY one of his fights except Ryan Garcia. Three guesses where the extra million came from. I said then that Ryan fans weren't going to convert to being Tank fans, and that he would be right back to the same numbers after, and here we are. I think he's got a core of around 175-200K that will watch him no matter who he fights, and the rest get made up with die hard boxing fans who will watch if the opponent is either Latino or more compelling than usual.
