How is crollla worse when hes ranked in top 5 and ruiz isnt even rsnked in top 50Correct your misinformation. He made weight in his last fight.
Who did Loma fight in his last fight? Someone Davis almost decapitated, and Loma went to hell and back. They are fighting similar opponents. Crolla is worse than Ruiz, worst C grade journeyman I can think of. Crolla is almost half dead!
You are a GGG fan, talking about opponents!

He’s being built up. That’s what a good promoter does. You don’t rush his development because Loma is running out of quality opponents.I don't know that he doesn't lose to any of those guys. I don't even know if Loma beats him either.
I do know his last two opponents have been embarrassing. Even if ruiz was a replacement, mares isn't great either. Dudes needs to fight some real competition so we can gauge how good he is.Comment

Now you are selling Crolla as a good fighter? He's a bum journeyman with 6 losses. Who on Crolla's resume is better than Perdraza (himself a C+ at best)? He lost to Linares 2 times, another first class bum. No two ways about it.What makes Ruiz better than Crolla? Ruiz has accomplished less, won less titles (he’s never won one), defeated less champions and was knocked out in his prime multiple times two divisions down from where he fought Tank.
At least Crolla is a lightweight, has held a title, has just recently defeated two ex-champions and has some solid wins.
Crolla actually has a better resume than Tank and it’s not even close LOL.
Let me guess Ruiz, a natural bantamweight who’s accomplished nothing is all of a sudden a badass because he fought Tank? What’s next is Cuellar a beast too?
Hopefully Loma disposes of him in style, and not treat us to another struggle of enormous proportions, like his fights with Linares and Pedraza. It's sad.Comment

He was world champ and beaten some decent b level fighters, far better than ruiz. And who has tank ever beat? Give me some names.Comment

They weren't struggles really. Linares, somewhat. It was his first fight at 135 and his arm popped in two rounds. Pedraza? He won 10 or 11 rounds, controlled the whole thing and made Pedraza miss all night. Not remotely a struggle. I don't think Linares is a "bum", he's had a good career, gotten some good wins and has accomplished more than Davis and gotten to #1 in more divisions than Davis (i.e more than 0).Now you are selling Crolla as a good fighter?

Crolla is a "good fighter" yes. An elite or great one? No chance. Just because a fighter isn't a legend or a personal favorite doesn't make him a "bum". Like I said, Crolla is more accomplished than Davis and if both retired today he'd rank higher based on his career. Probably because he's stepped up more often. Tank is living off that Pedraza win. That's his Buster Douglas moment but there's far more depth to Crolla's resume - Perez, Barosso for example are bigger wins than Tank's and even the scalps like Yordan, Burns add a bit more depth making his overall resume superior to Tank's or Pedraza's or Ruiz', of course.
Lomachenko-Crolla is a crap fight. It's a mandatory that's likely to be next because Commey pulled out. It's far better than anything Tank has fought in the last 2 years or will face in the next year. He's a lightweight at least. It will be dominant but to get mad at a mandatory that's happening because a champ got injured is a bit extreme. You'd sing a different tune if Tank fought him.
Tank by your own admission and you're a huge fan of him, has never fought anything more than C level and then D level guys. It's a bit rich to criticize proven boxers who've accomplished far more, gotten to #1 in multiple divisions, often fight with men their size or bigger and it's a bit sad that Tank continues to talk trash but openly admits he doesn't want to fight the dude.Comment

lol
Those are the ones people support the most.
Promoters know their target audience. People who live through these guys, to prove to themselves that they belong at the top of the sport.
There are literally lives like Dontae’s Boxing Nation riding on the success of this guy.
Trust me, Davis loses and Dontae finds a tree branch that supports at least 450 pounds. If only for a couple of minutes before it snaps.Comment

He’s a hundred years old. Lomas 30 and people act like he’s already on the back nine when it comes to Tank. Rigo was way older and smaller.Comment
