Comments Thread For: Mayweather: If Tank Gets Past Leo, 1 More Fight, Then Hopefully Teofimo Fight Can Be Made

Tank is disappointing his fans and boxing fans everywhere!

He should be barking up a storm
On how he wants smoke with Lopez and that’s he would fûçk him up!

He would look so badàśś if he just accepted B side status, go over to ESPN and knock out Lopez for most of the belts but that won’t ever happen!

Props to Tank if this happens.

Mayweather's has got to be one of the worst promoters ever. He's not even "TBE", I can think of a lot of fighters that could've beaten him such as Aaron Pryor, Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Wilfredo Benitez, Sandy Saddler, etc. Those are only the fighters that fought in his division. Mayweather is so arrogant that he said was was better than any fighter that ever lived, including Muhammad Ali. He doesn't realize that he's actually placing self doubt in his fighter, by not making these fights. Every Time a sports reporter asks him about fighting a Lomachenko, or a Lopez, that's got to bother him. Now on the flip side of that coin if Davis, out his foot down and demanded that Mayweather make the fight. I think Mayweather would have to make the fight, or wind up losing Davis. On top of all that Mayweather has the audacity to call other promoters greedy, when there is no one greedier the Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Spent years ducking Loma, now gonna duck the guy who beat Loma.

With Loma, age and experience was used as the excuse. But now it's even worse because he's avoiding a guy who is younger, has less fights, less title fights. When Tank won his first world title, Teo was 1-0 as a pro. Now he's overtaken Tank. Great career guidance at work there

If you saw the interview on ESPN First Take yesterday, you know this fight is not happening! Floyd clearly does not want to work with Arum, nor ESPN! Also, earlier in the week, also on ESPN, Teofimo said he wasn't interested!

Lopez not interested in Davis, eager to make a splash at Junior Welterweight

One more fight then Lopez?!
Not happening!

I understand why they would want one more fight at 140 before Teo. Tank has fought only once at 135 and he missed weight and didn't look that great against an old and injured Gambao.

So he might need a fight at 135 to properly acclimate to the weight.

Having said that however, I don’t blame anyone who calls it a duck. Teo is also struggling to keep his weight down and has repeatedly expressed his intention to move up soon, same as Haney.

If Tank don't fight none of these guys then it is a duck.

Only acceptible fight I'd say is if he fights Garcia after he beats Campbell.

Garcia has repeatedly said that he wants the Tank fight next.

If Garcia takes and Golden Boy come to the negotiation table, and tank takes that fight, then it will be acceptible.

Still, it aint a good look no matter who else you fight if you could have fought the undisputed champ with an asterisk and chose to fight someone else.

I don’t call guys ducks for not moving up from their weight class to fight bigger guys.

I get that this is a grey area for Davis because he’s come in overweight before. If he makes 130 this week, I still consider him a 130lber. No issue with him wanting to fight 1 real lightweight before challenging Lopez.

We don't believe you Floyd. We know what game your playing with Tank.

Was afraid to put Davis in with someone several years older than him, now he is afraid to put him in with someone younger than Davis.
