:manny: already said I wasnt mad at the draw, you wont find any complaints Tank should have won clean from me in this thread. Roach fought good enough to win.

My ordeal is the bias in here with folks not keeing it even. Cats dont like Tank/are basing narratives off of that.


Whats to keep even :huh:

Tankettes been screaming from the high heavens he sparks out everyone but jesus in under 5 rounds and he just got soundly outboxed by a 130 lber.

What are we supposed to do here? Let all the egregious talking points just rock in the face of this new info? They was just doing cartwheels last week for Shakur taking too long to stop his replacement he won every round against meanwhile in here making up every wxcuse for Tank and deifying Lamont Roach for finally being the fighter to expose the glaring flaws in tank current style.


Also beyond fighting ability why should anyone like tank. He chokes out women is disrespectful half the time and runs over pregnant ladies in lambos. And hes a fukking duck. No I dont like that lil demon ass nikka but he can fight though :mjlol:

The fights would not be the same and they’re not going to trade with Tank.

The blueprint is out b, its over. You can trade with Tank, most of his KOs come from nikkas over extending being dumbasses or gassing. Shakur has a strong inside game. They wont fight the same but Shakur is definitely capable of replicating roach game if his team thinks thats the correct path to a w

Come on bro..lets keep it super real.. because i know you have actual boxing eyes

Do you think Tank has moved in a way that would make you think people should like him or dislike him?

You've largely disregarded the top fighters in boxing for your own reasons/biases in the past: Crawford, Monster, Beterbiev, etc etc

I'm not speaking no lies haha

People gotta stop acting like folks don't like Tank.

They just want that nikka to fight somebody elite.

I honestly don't think that's asking too much from Tank :pachaha:

Wait a minute, you're telling me this is how fighters look against Tank when they are not weight drained? :picard::lupe:

pretty much, lol. to be fair, Tank knew that Roach was bigger when he signed the fight but the reason why he was confident is because Roach is not a big puncher, he doesnt move a lot and he is right in front of you, he doesnt really move his head like that, he is not insanely fast. what Tank didnt anticipate was Roach isnt easy to break down if you dont have good activity rate, which is why I thought the fight would go the distance. I shouldve bet like Shakur did. :snoop:

I am not saying he won, I would have to watch the fight again, I thought the fight was close, but officially Roach should have won because that should have been called a knockdown and Willis actually started the count (got to TWO)

which brings me to Steve Willis.....trash ass ref but yall so concerned with his facial expressions. my first introduction to Steve Willis was one of the most horrible fights I ever seen in boxing. it was over 10 years ago and I cant remember who it was. It was a fight at 175 if I remember correctly the fighter knocked the other fighter down in the final seconds and he didnt call it or it was a fight where the guy was winning and got knocked down and he stopped the fight. either way I remember it all happened with about 10 seconds left in the match. does anyone remember what fight this was? the fighter's corner almost started a riot. I thought it was Julio Cesar Gonzalez (RIP) but I cant remember. wish someone could remember! I wanted to kill Steve Willis, felt like the fix was in.

Zero. Tank has always shown these vulnerabilities. Pitbull exposed that he has trouble when you crowd his space. Ryan got him a few times. Tank has been caught plenty in his career. His defense has always been leaky....There's a reason he's been reluctant to fight Shakur. If roach can time him that easily, imagine what Shakur would do.
Agreed but you have the flip side of the coin where Shakur fights scary against anyone with any semblance of power. We've seen that at least 3 times that I can think of.

There's been reluctance on both sides if we really wanna keep it 100
