Was Devin Haney more impressive than the fat version of Tank?

    Again am not judging a fight that I haven’t seen. I know exactly what am replying to. The sarcasm in my post is directed at the TS who knows exactly what am insinuating.

      Maybe they can feed him to Davis next, if Haney would take it. Floyd can arrange that but Hearn wouldn't even think about it.

        I would direct you to an interview that Ellerbe did last week with IFL on YouTube. No PBC fighter would be place in against any other fighter that isn’t signed to the PBC. So NO Davis isn’t going to be placed in a fight with Haney and they aren’t welcoming any offers from any promoters.

          The bold would be idiotic. Who do they have for Davis?

            Tank is 26 and already a champion for almost 3 yrs before he fought Gamboa.
            Devin Haney is soon to be 22.

              They have their way of doing business. Anyone trying to bother themselves with offers to Tank or any main PBC boxers should go and listen to that interview. Their history alone tells what sort of business model they have for certain fighters. They couldn’t care less if the boxer ends up earning less, their business model comes first.

                None were impressive against Gamboa. Davis stopped him, but didn't look impressive. Haney dominated Gamboa, but it didn't look impressive either.

                    Rather than comparing how one guy beat Gamboa to how another one did how about Tank and Haney fight each other?

                    I know Haney is up for it, how about Tank? Or would Haney have to cross a street to get a fight with PBC star like Davis?

                      No. He was less impressive than Tank was on a bad night. First he should not have fought Gamboa when Gamboa was coming off a Ko loss to Tank. What kind of so called world champion does that?Gamboa was a cherry pick for Tank and an even worse cherry pick for Haney because he had just been softened up and KOed. Tank got the KO win and Haney could not KO Gamboa. Neither Tank nor Haney were impressive beating washed up Gamboa who they should not have been fighting because he was not even close to being a top 10 contender. Tank did a better job of beating Gamboa because he got the KO.
