heres the difference though....what most of you fail to realize or want to ignore
teo is also with top rank...its easier fight to make...but beyond that...has lopez ever sold 12k in tickets as a headliner? has teo ever headlined cards on showtime? has teo ever been chief support to a floyd ppv that did over 2 mil buys? the answer to those are no.....teo needs a fight like this to fast track him and his profile......tank does not....tank could build his and still make the fight in a year or two and it might be even bigger(provided loma beats teo)...
without the loma fight teo is stuck headlining ho hum cards in front of 3-5k or still being an undercard to fury, crawford or loma....this is teos shot as fast tracking himself to the top
tank is about to do his first ppv at 25...how many top 20 p4p guys today have done a ppv at 25 let alone headlined it?
teo needs the risk more than davis does right now...its that simple...i take nothing away from teo for making this fight...huge nuts and i applaud him...im pulling for him....but he and tanks situation arent really equal
canelo wasnt rushing his career for golovkin and tank isnt rushing his for loma....he can still fight loma next year or the year after that and its totally fine...the only people that will hate on it are those afraid that father time will beat loma...but those same people didnt mind fury delaying the wilder rematch for a year and fury beating up on a 33-34 year old wilder though....
