    Tank have everything in place to become a huge star...he has the backing of Mayweather which is huge and bring a lot of Casuals Viewers automatically. He does have talent in the ring as well! OK so now it is time for big fights ONLY in 2020, take the Training Wheels off and lets see what he really can do! Also keep him active so that he don't have to get so fat in between fights.

      But Davis is a draw no doubt. That's why I'm fine with him going PPV next fight. Let's see if his good gates translates to PPV buys. Not always but only one way to find out. Lomachenko is going on PPV next fight and his gates are no where close to 2M.

      I'll post the official numbers when I get them but as of yesterday they wweren't available.
      I don't do NY numbers because they can't be confirmed. That's why I leave them out

        Nah, I got Crawford/Khan and GGG/Derevyanchenko. Pretty sure I got Joshua/Ruiz as well but they just showed full capacity and Matchroom paid maximum tax but didn't show the actual amount...Though clearly would be over a million.

        I'll have Crawford/Mean Machine hopefully soon as well...Though likely in a month.

          ...and malt liquor sales.

            Davis should fight at least 4 times this year. March, June, September, and December. Or something like that. Put the popularity contest aside for now, fight tough fights in 2020.

                What about Crawford and Khan?

                Joshua and Ruiz 1?

                  he was active in 2019 fighting 3 times and yet he's still fat as a house. i think it might be glandular or something. no pro athelete can be that undisciplined

                    Tank is definitely a star in the making for sure, though I feel like he’s treading a very fine line between becoming the sports next star and becoming the sport’s next Broner. His performance was woefully uninspired, with his punch count dropping to 15 punches a round in some cases. However he gets extra credit as far as I’m concerned for his immediate reaction to the moment he heard the boo’ing. I love to see boxers do that, it speaks volumes.

                      doesnt it speak volumes how he has only fought bums for the last 3 years? star in the making is right and the one ingredient they are willfully not including is good competition.
