fukk that little gremlin boxing gods are punishing him for running from the grind and I love it :mjlol:
I love it too I'm just shocked JP would make this move
If it's a morality issue....then why fight Tank in the first place. He just beat up a woman then paid her off a couple of months ago

Also the ramifications of this will be interesting for 135 assuming Tank needed the money, if this option evaporates will he be more willing to take smoke at 135lb now :jbhmm:

The fight is flopping so this is their out
A Tank vs Jake Paul bout flopping is kind of crazy to think about. It has been minimal buzz though

edit: ain't this shyt in Netflix? They don't even need to sell PPV. Just sell out the arena and generate FREE views night of. Forgot this was a Netflix fight, I wonder if their execs, who might not be used to the fukkery in boxing, are the ones pushing for another opponent

That’s the thing ppl ain’t buying tickets for this. Miami was only used cause GA wouldn’t sanction the fight in ATL. This fight was dumb in first place,the people into tank don’t care about Jake Paul. Jake Paul vs Ryan Garcia made more sense honestly

Kinda surprised JP is making this move as it's only a civil suit against Davis and he won't serve any time AND the fight is a couple of weeks away

It's obvious why he's doing it. The fight was flopping. Only a few weeks away and not even close to sold out for an arena with only 19k capacity. Fight had absolutely zero buzz. Tank just isn't that big of a star. The most ppv's he's sold on his own is like 250k. This was a blessing in disguise for Jake. They were gonna lose a shyt load of money paying their purses.

Tank vs Roach in ATL or DMV as a rematch would have been a better ROI for PBC than this shyt is for MVP lol, coulda did Shaq vs Fulton Co Main and literally anyone as the 3rd and 4th fights.
