    I mean it's the better fight than the Stevenson vs Teo Lopez fight, (which is reportedly being negotiated) in my opinion.

      Tank is nothing like Wilder. Tank must be shielded and protected from any risk fights. He will only be set up with rigged phony wins. That's why he ducked Loma, Teo, Farmer, etc. Haymon probably paid Loma a million to pretend like he declined that last phony offer. Again, Tank is nothing but a smoke and mirrors fraud.

          There is still time for that fight.

          Obviously Tank is taking a massive payday for an exhibition.

            Because Jake Paul is a walk in the park in comparison and a bigger payday. Having said that, I'd LOVE to see him face the 'new' Shakur who fought on the front foot and didn't run against Zepeda. I think that would be an interesting fight but would make Tank the favourite providing Shakur fight's the same way.

                Yeah but back then Shakur had a boring style and wasn't a PPV draw unlike Paul. Therefore, it was a risky fight whereas now it's much more financially viable with Turki behind it and a more appealing fight for Tank IF Shakur continues to fight in a fan friendly style.
