    Given Tanks short stalky build, he's going to need to have it all.

        "Boxing skills" is such an overused term everytime a fighter executes a gameplan or adjusts in a manner that another fighter didn't anticipate. At this level, they all have great boxing skills..

        the victor is usually the one who executes on a given night.

          Said it once and I'll say it again. This will turn into a chess match once Tank realizes he's being outgunned.

            Lol... Always surprised at how many people ignore the reflexes and skills of guys like Tank and Teophemo?

            It’s like they notice the impact of the punch but didn’t see how it was set up. Some of y’all don’t know, don’t show or just don’t care about what goes on in the Ring.

              Boxing skills range from fundamental to high level and is a string of events, the difference at high level is reaction and speed of execution, yes they all have skills but they not all equal.

              Boxing is a speed sport be first to land and the rest follows.

                The guy has potentiel, no doubt. But let's see how he fares against a smaller yet pugnacious Cruz first. Then let's see him against a top 135 pounder.. like Easter or Fortuna. Then we will have a better read.

                  I agree with floyds guidance and work ethic, tank as a great future ahead of him

                      guidance: easy cherry picked fights

                      work eithic:roids roids and more roids, and tank clearly doesnt have floyd's "work ethic" as proven over and over, plus he's fat
