    Is Tank ready for Loma?

    Hes a a fast explosive fighter with power and decent boxing skills but with the competition hes been facing its hard to gauge. He may be the goods but we have yet to see him face anyone decent.

    His best and only good win Pedraza. From the opening bell marched face first into Tank and was fighting a dumb. No jabs, no probes, no boobing or weaving. Just stationary was landing some shots and taking some hard flush shots as well. Paulie and AL even said this is not normally how Pedrza fight and were perplexed in his decision.

    Pauile even said Pedraza is showing no fundamentals like you have a sharp counter puncher like Tank use some faints.

    With Loma he was on his bike most of the fight and was getting bullied inside.

    Showtime has the full fight here.



    Fonseca fight he looked really latargic. maybe trouble making the weight?

    You have another guy whos slow and doesnt have speed, doesnt use faints and flat footed outboxing him and pushing him back in good spots.

    Some examples

    Controlled back with the jab gets clipped



    Gets hurt by a counter shot to the body



    Countered and hit by a huge right hand.



    Loma is gonna faint, probe give you different looks. He is also a monstrous body puncher and a great jab and a vicious left hand that snaps your head back and makes you think twice.

    I doubt he’ll ever be ready. But he’s as ready as he’ll ever be...

    I think Tank is a good fighter but Loma is a great fighter and will prove to be a level above.

        Seems like Floyd doesn't think he's ready.

            Id rather see Tank vs a more step up opponent pre-Loma fight.

            At 130 that meant fighting Tevin, Herring, Cancio or Berchelt. At 135 I think there are more step up fights & now we got Tank & Loma in the same division so thats a big help than the last lil while when they werent in the same division.

            So yea give me Tank vs a Luke, Teofimo, Commey, Easter, Devin or someone around that range of guys who've done something or look like they could do something.
