So Mayweather is admitting that he is protecting Gervonta Davis ? Let the kid develop by fighting better fighters in his own weight class. He won't improve with only 3 round fights Everytime Floyd.

Lol....................
Don't blame Tank for cherry picking, cuz he don't give a **** either way. I'm the one who cherry picks for him. Tank is just good with the cherry picking that's all, so don't blame him!! He just signs off on it and agrees to it and ****, but that's it!!

Issue is WBA, that is suppose to ensure fair competition in the sport and legimacy of world title fights, best contenders getting their shots - are just running along with Mayweather promotions to leech money.
They should be the one saying: Wait a minute, You want to be world champion - so there's responsibility here. Fight Albert Machado or give the belt up for fighters who want to compete with the best.
Another issue is Showtime, that are suppose to provide best fights for it's subscribers... and They are selling crap instead.
As for Gervonta, at least call it as it is and stop pretending that You're trying to fight good fighters.
I do feel like more boxing fans are waking up to the bull**** though. Boxing is moving in such a positive direction lately with real fighters winning belts willing to unify and give good fair fights at the top level. The number of protected hypejobs is still significant on the PBC side, but at least now there is plenty of viable competition giving actual real top level fights to fans and not overly protecting their fighters. Hopefully the sanctioning bodies stop coddling Haymon fighters and reward the boxers willing to fight the best instead, because ultimately those are the ones who are going to deliver big fights and big sanctioning fees to the sanctioning bodies, not vice versa. Its very confusing why the WBA would want Tank to be their champ when he only fought once last year against a no name opponent and didn't generate big money for them. Maybe they're being paid under the table who knows.
But I think the best recourse is to just start ignoring boxers like Tank who are protected. Their promoters keep saying they aren't protected, the writers keep trying to justify covering Tank's career for example even though he refused to fight the best in his division Loma, but fans are wising up. Just ignore this guy, and ignore the writers articles about him or any comments or any of that ****, and just wait until he actually does something. Then, fair play to him, and everyone can pay him attention again, as would be fair to him. Im not trying to banish him to the silent treatment for eternity or anything. But if he's going to duck prime Loma like he saw his promoter do with Pacquiao, boxing has suffered enough from bull**** like that, so I highly suggest we all simply tune him out then and tell him fans aren't falling for that game anymore, and you're not going to get your shine until you fight Loma, and if you don't do it in the next 12 months or so before Loma declines, then even fighting Loma won't be enough after that point, and you will need to find another prime fighter on that level to prove yourself against and make up for ducking prime Loma, sort of the way I've been saying Canelo can only do by fighting Bivol now after how he waited for GGG to get old before fighting him. Canelo botched that opportunity, so now the only one left is possibly even more difficult, at least in terms of weight. Same could apply for Tank. There are no fighters his size coming up as good as prime Loma, so if he avoids prime Loma, how can he ever compensate for that in his career other than fighting someone nearly as Loma, but much bigger?
In any case, for now, the best option is to ignore the ducker, and his tiresome promoter.Last edited by Boxing Logic; 02-08-2019, 11:03 AM.

So this is bs
Maybe they patched things up and they are both on the same page now? No tough opponents, no opponents in the same division, fight once a year etc;
