    Yea honestly it does make sense to get some more seasoning on Tank before throwing him in with Loma. And Loma has better opposition with Berchelt, Corrales & Rigo (if they wanna fight him for real & Rigo really wants to move up). Tank should be 4th on Loma's short list at best. And if Floyd can get the opponents for Tank (& there's no reason to suggest he can't with him throwing his guys in deep on the regular) & Tank can actually win those fights, this time next year with Loma beating the HBO guys & Tank getting some key wins & maybe getting some sloppy seconds on one of the HBO guys Loma beat that could legit be a lil guy PPV that could get 300k, 400k buys.

        Floyd also boasts that Davis is now a belt holder. Well, he should then be ready to face anyone, including Loma. I think a "champion" should always be forced to face the best contenders available if he does not proactively seek them.

        That's why I like Errol Spence in that regard, wanting to fight the best. Will see if his tune changes once he has another major fight.

          Lets hope the other Champs step up & test their skills against Loma! Tank has already stated in a previous interview, he might see Loma down the road at 135! That lets you know he'a not interested at all! The other champs seem to be reluctant on facing Loma for whatever reason. I would love to see Loma fight 3-4 times per year but finding opponents to step up might hard to do.
          That's a b1tch move too because he already has the size advantage at 130, but will have huge size on Loma at 135 when Tank doesn't have to drain as much. Tank is one of the biggest weight bullies out there, that's why he was calling out Broner even when Broner was at 147. Loma would outbox him at 130 but at 135 Loma is in a lot more danger fighting someone who will be 10 to 15 pounds bigger in the ring. If Tank is a real champ he will make that fight at 130. They can always rematch at 135 and that would add a big twist to the rematch to make everyone interested again, knowing Tank can do better at 135. But you are both champs at 130 now, so the fight should happen, #1 vs #2 at 130.

              What was Loma doing when he was 22??



              He sure as hell wasn't doing what Tank is doing.

                    The most ironic thing about your list is that the only fight I see even being actually pursued by Bob Arum is the Corrales fight (and even that one is put into doubt after Corrales put on 20lbs post weigh-in); Berchelt vs Corrales seems the fight that has HBO's interest anyway.

                    Get ready for "bum of the quarter" fights for Lomachenko, lol
