Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Russell Solid Opponent For Tank, But He's Not At 130

[killakali]

Another article lying on Mayweather for clicks.

Gary Russell is a solid opponent,” Mayweather said. “I don’t think Gary Russell is fighting at 130 at this particular time. So, you know, when Gary Russell comes up to 130 and makes some noise, if Tank hasn’t moved up to 135 then anything is possible down the line.

Gary Russell has not moved up to 130 he keeps saying he is but he contradicts his self every time. How’s Mayweather wrong on this?

Russell said he would move up for the fight. That’s all we need. Mares and cuellar didn’t say they were moving up yet Tank had no problem fighting them undersized foos. Stop your bias.

Bronx 2245, Very good assessment of what needs to happen with this young talented kid.

Thanks, but I can't take credit for that! That's Paul Magno, who writes for FightHype! And I agree with him, it's gonna take more than Farmer to make Tank a PPV Star!

So Davis vs Mares was ok, but Russell vs Davis isnt? wtf kind of bs is this?!?!

Loma Tank is PPV in lower class!

Tank is same size as with Pacman and can easily move up in weights to fight bigger guys!

My man, Tank was willing and ready to Abner who hasn't made any noise at 126 or 130 lately but GRJ needs to make some noise first? Tank has fought nobodies who came up byt won't fight a real challenger.


It's a duck move considering GRJ has called him out for a fight numerous times already. Mayweather leading the kid down the path of least resistance. He's a champion, not a prospect, it's time for some real competition to elevate his status in the game.

Mares is a perfect fighter to build a fighter on. YES Russell called him out at 130 and still hasn’t moved up. I know you have some type of common sense lol. Now he’s ducking a fighter at 126 LOL he’s going to wait until Tank move up to 135 and then you morons will say Tank ducked him. If that’s considered a duck then Berchelt is ducking also

He clearly says he wants Berchelt first at 130 WHEN he moves up but Tank ducking him doe.

Floyd is leading him down the path of superstardom and it’s already working you can tell by all the haters he have. He’s already beat 3 undefeated fighters two whom were champion, one who went the distance with Loma.

Russell Jr is a once a year fighter. Says one thing and does another.

That’s not what he said liar lol you’re never right about anything so I know I’m wasting my time responding to you.




“When I move up”
He doesn’t want the fight that’s why he’s hiding behind 126. Mares and Cuellar was willing to move up if Russell does he’ll get the same treatment. Then you haters will just say it was mismatch after Tank wins.He also said he would move up for Berchelt so is Berchelt ducking him too?

By his logic Miguel Berchelt is ducking Rusell Jr too.

For the record, the Mares fight was about tapping into his fan base. You don't build a star by pleasing hard cores with challenging fights. You build a star by getting a fighter exposure to casuals.
