    True but I don't have to like it so I'm going to stick my fingers in my ears and hum Yankee Doodle.

      Looks like Russell Jr might be the most feasible, meaningful option?

        That would definitely be a feat for Tank or vice versa really. Either guy with a stoppage over the other doubles their fanbase IMO

          I will speak on behalf of Davis

          Look, build them up, back them and pay me sign the contract and I’ll knock them off but in the meantime I’m the Got dam man!

              For those rippin his resume, he just had his first big fight. They'll continue to be solid opponents from here on out. It's always like that. Once they crack a certain level, then fights pour in. (He may face a bum or mandatory 1 of his next 5 or something. But generally, the opposition will be an upgrade).

              As far as GRJ, who looks at that as a bad idea? Or a bad fight? Or a mismatch? That's two greats that are from roughly the same area on the map. That fight would be FANTASTIC. And either man could win!

                If Loma and his team had even a drop of brains qualified for managing/promoting fighter, they would have already went viral online into playing down Davis for his multiyear ducking (quarter-life of Davis') and force him into "no more waiting time coming".

                But then again, Had Loma or his team have those brains, they would have called out Davis/Berchelt after each fight in super-featherweight division.

                  I was gonna write a long post but will keep it short: Nobody owes Lomachenko anything. He needs to get to the back of the queue.

                    All of y’all wrong, and here’s why

                    I believe and others believe he was responsible for a hit and run, so I think a judge will be next up! These fools make money only to give it away in legal expenses and be taken advantage of due to ignorance. This is so prevalent amongst black fighters and it’s sad and need to be addressed. Maybe I should start a fighters foundation to inform there dumb assesssssss!

                      PBC does not play when it comes to PPV. they don't like mismatches because they dont sell well.

                      LSC was a big name and going forward if tank wants ppv money he will need to fight the following:

                      1. Teofimo lopez
                      2. Ryan Garcia
                      3. GRJ
                      4. Devin Haney
                      5. miguel berchelt
