Salute Kell..the carson jones fight had me thinking he was overrated...thankfully he ran that shyt back

Was the only fighter until Crawford to not go life and death with Porter soundly outboxing him...taking his zero and belt....the draw card was a joke.
Hate that it's his marquee win but it stands out

The nonsense that happened between GGG vs Canelo made him a casualty of war...facing GGG at MW and then Spence at WW...balls of steel move...this is why talks of Spence jumping 3 divisions to fight Canelo at a catch weight needs to stop..its dangerous.

Hopefully he doesn't end up having vision issues in his retirement :salute:

I mean Tank has that ohko ability, but I don't see how he lands it on Shakur.
He won't get that off. Shakur understands distance and placement, it will frustrate tank all night he never been in the ring with a boxer like that. Tank best stay away, best chance to beat shakur was a year ago.

Tank closing in on 30, at some point he needs some legacy fights

Tank has boxing ability and ring IQ. Hes not just some brainless one handed fighter.

And why should he stay away? If he thinks he can fxck with Shakur then let them have at it and we'll see what happens.

Never said tank was brainless he just can't outbox shakur. I want them to fight, tank will lose by a margin 8-4

I have Tank losing as well, Shakurs brain is just too godly. but I'd like to see more of Tank before I can pinpoint a margin like that.

So why did Haymon and Arum work together on an even bigger fight (multiple times) for Wilder and Fury, why give the entire card to Arum for the Porter fight?
What's the argument for freezing out Arum (and Bud by proxy) for this one particular match up
Cause spence is much more valuable numbers wise. Vs crawford
