I mean as long as he can hit you hard enough for you to care thats all that matters and it seems that he has enough pop for that so IDK why we even arguing about this. You aren't walking through taking 150 jabs unscathed, thats crazy talk.
I’m not sure of the context of the convo

I’m just saying I think Shakur got more power than Roach

Roach has great precision and timing but his power wasn’t what impressed me tonight

Funny thing is....Tank will probably beat everybody else. Sometimes a boxer who knows you can have your number. Lamont knows Tank...Everything Tank was going to do and trying to do. Same thing with Tarver when he fought and beat RJJr.... When you have tons of practice with someone, they train to defeat you.

Who's "everybody else"?

Pitbull rematch? :heh:



Hes not fighting Shakur and them , you could forget about that.

Man some of you don’t know shyt about boxing. :mjlol:

Same shyt back in the day when people always said Pernell didn’t hit hard. Well why didn’t JCC walk through him? Why didn’t Oscar? Even Tito couldn’t and Pernell was over the hill and coked up. Same thing was said about Floyd. Incidentally Shakur has same hand issues that prevented Floyd from getting more stoppages. If Shakur can’t punch, why Tank won’t fight him? Bro ain’t 3 weight champ for nothing. Tank glazing is nuts. You just thought he would steamroll Roach when I said he wouldn’t but now Tank can do so much to Shakur? Foh.

They really don't though.

If you a technician all you need is the respectable pop. thats it. It would be nice to have ohko power but its not necessary. If you can keep people honest you're fine. No has just walked down Shakur yet so obviously he has enough pop to be a deterrent. There is few things more demoralizing than getting hit over and over with a snappy jab.

These dudes acting like Roach did some otherworldly fantastical shyt. He just outboxed tank and didn't get lulled into getting counterpunched to hell. And he didn't gas. To say Shakur cant do something similar in his style is weird. Roach boxed incredibly well but he didn't reinvent the wheel and with that tape on tank out folks will see how much trouble he has with patient outboxers cuz his output is too fukking low. You will not beat Shakur throwing 10 punches a round because he gets hit by like 14% of them or some shyt. you are not beating him landing 1 punch a round :dead:

I missed this shyt.

Explain my bro
Roach should've got the decision. Tank took a knee in the 9th but it wasn't called a KD.

Fight is decided a majority draw. Tank blames hair grease getting into his eye, so he went to his corner to get wiped off.

ill give roach his credit...he didnt allow himself to be a victim of tank and promoter fukkery...he trained hard and rose to the occasion and i respect that..esp for a fight that was nonsense on paper..roach can be proud and hang his head high..the NY crowd rocked with him and everything
