    Tank is just too small

    Any top 135 fighter would destroy him to be honest

    he may be small but he knows how to fight. his footwork and his ability to get inside on you is second to none. he's also not even prime yet. he's got every punch in the book and goes to the body and head.

    i'd favor him to beat lopez. It would be a damn firefight, but I think he can get inside on Lopez and punish him. Lopez wants you at a distance.

      I agree he is too small but he has extremely fast hands that carry dynamite so he has a good shot with anybody his weight he can land on, but he is small for the weight.

        I think 130 lbs is his optimal weight and I don't see enough skills in his game that I think is enough to rely on at 135 or higher when the power doesn't get the job done, which is probable against the naturally bigger guys. I also don't know much about his chin so that's another question mark

          He should stay at 130 for sure. Leo was a taller and wider shouldered than him

            He has been boxing since he was 6 years old, he might not have the dimensions like longer reach etc but he has the ring IQ due to his experience. He is like Mike Tyson in the way he is built, and that doesn't mean he cannot beat boxers who have height advantage over him. They just need to make sure he doesn't fight someone his own size. And if he does, he needs to make sure he doesn't take punches like he did against LSC.

              He never fought a lightweight guy, to begin with.

                  Only time will tell but he's a good fighter and he can punch. It's going to be interesting to see how far he can go.

                    PBC have a chance to create an undisputed champ finally. They should take the risk of Tank vs Lopez. He might be smaller, but Tank is a much better fighter. And if he wins, PBC can finally create that PBC belt they’ve been wanting.
