      It's all about the money. Contact sport athletes can't work their trade until age 65. Its a wise man who's approach is to "Get it now". The others can just fight each other while waiting.

        How crazy. Tank hasn't really accomplished much, yet he's already on the status of Mayweather where he could make these farce fights for easy paychecks and nobody bats an eye. Pure fight for the casuals.

          “On the level of Mayweather”??? You mean retired Mayweather?

          PAC did fight a Korean YouTuber and a Japanese Kickboxer too.

          Saying this does not mean I am disagreeing with you that Tank has turned into a joke.

            Yes, you can include Pac as well. As much as I hate either guy doing exhibition bouts, at their age and what they've already cemented in their career, they've earned it.

            Tank hasn't reached 30% of what Pac or Jr. had done in their careers and is already doing this. It's an easy money grab and I guess if you can get away with it, why not? Fighters these days are more about making $$$ over legacy. Tank has no legacy and he's going to go down in the future as a what if type fighter because he never maximized his true potential of what kind of fighter he could have been by chasing greatness.

              Tank lost to a 130 pounder Roach. He was never on Lomas Level.

                i knew tanks career would turn out this way. when he was 23 you had people saying hes still young give him time after he fought bum after bum. it was pretty clear they were just trying to create something out of thin air with easy opponents and lock in that big money. he wouldnt even fight tevin farmer or alberto machado. sad part is it worked because here he is raking in the money for this kind of crap.

                    Tank loves Five Guys, from what I’ve heard.
