Still, it’s not like he got famous from thin air. The Mayweather boost served him good from the get go but hardcore fans were the foundation. Just like most fighters he also appeared deep on undercards first.

Bullshytting around with Jake Paul after years of not trying to make the best fights happen and then escaping with his skin on his teeth against a sizeable underdog dragged up from 130. Then add the various out of ring shyt he got into…
He deserves all the criticism
People are going to criticize the most visible fighter regardless. You’d think all these fighters fought each other and Tank is on the outside looking in. Tank was a somebody before Mayweather. Let’s stop that narrative now. He came under Adrien Broner. Bill Haney admitted he knew who Tank was before he ever signed to Mayweather. Next, Devin Haney was raised in that Mayweather gym and is the original YouTube boxer. There are a plethora of fighters that was signed to Mayweather that didn’t blow like Mikey Bey (Idc if I got it wrong). You just have it or you don’t when it comes to being a star. People only bring that up to hate like he’s the only fighter to fight on a Mayweather undercard.

Dragged up!? Roach himself prior to their fight said he is naturally bigger than Tank. Is Roach a weight bully? We don’t know and we really don’t give AF about him. He knows it thats why he is waiting like a 304 for their pimp.

As much as folks talk crazy about him, I’d be like f y’all too if I had the leverage. The numbers show boxing right now is dull without him. This thread has half the pages of Canelo and Bud with a fraction of the time.

Most sane folks like get the back just drop the belt lol
Why drop it if WBA isn’t tripping? You know why the WBA isn’t tripping? Because not any of those dudes can match the sanctioning fees that Tank pays. They see it as good publicity as well when the WBA title is mentioned on that Friday to over 100 million viewers around the world.

This is big business.

WBA made a statement, since this isnt s real fight they likely conclude tank vs roach to start the year. Main thing is if you doing this already just retire after you cash out, nothing else will get you a similar bag especially with the grind of camps and health risk so just cash outnand retire especially since you been letting us know you tired of the sport

Hit dog hollering! I’m indifferent to any of this ish. Lsstly, they’re prizefighters. They fight for money. This isnt the amateurs or the Olympics.

Which is fine but this removes tank from any serious convo as far as being considered as the cream of his division.

I think he’s made it very clear that he doesn’t give AF about any of that. They’re trying to secure a fight with him not vice versa.
