Honestly I felt kambosos is overrated, I felt in Lopez didn't lose his cool so quickly he would have haves him out there real quick. He was Lopez was the far superior boxer I feel Haney can knock dude out if he tries too.
Yeah, Lopez was in bad shape physically and mentally. They said he almost died. He could have knocked him out. You are right, Kambosos is overrated, but when the white boxing world gets a champion, they try to keep him on top as long as they can. This is a true reason I worry that Haney might get robbed.

Tank wasn't losing that fight. The rules are the most effective boxer. The one who is winning the fight rather he is boxing or brawling. Tank was giving dude a boxing lesson. Rolly won a round maybe two out of the 6 before the knockout. As you can see, Tank wasn't getting hit that much.
If Tank wasn't getting hit his face and the big ass lump says differently

I am with Haney too, but I know how boxing is. Sometimes you have to knock a motherfucker out to take it out of the judges hands. Hell, they was trying to take if from Bivol when he fought Canelo. Bivol was beating Canelo's ass and they put it as a split. I hope all comes through on this fight. I will put my money on Haney for sure.
Damn you're right. I forgot all about Bivol, even though it was 2-3 weeks ago, it feels like it was months ago. Damn, very good point. lol

Kambosos isn’t overrated.
He was Pacquiao’s chief sparring partner.
Pacaquiao was known for battering sparring partners and kicking them out of the wild card if they couldn’t hack it.
Kambosos was the one of the rare sparring partners that remained in his camp.

Haney has to fight Kambozo 2xs and Loma after. That’s three times he’s got to fight a cac. If he gets through that gauntlet without being robbed, that means he knocked all of them out.

Finally found the Tank fight. Lemme go on ahead and say this hyphenated “Tank-ain’t-do-shit-for-6 rounds!” Shit was terrible. He probably landed 7 shots the entire fight on a guy with no Amateur record and 14 pro fights. I keep telling y’all he fights subpar opponents. Not saying none were good but Rollie stands like he’s about to do kart wheels. He can’t jab and can’t cut the ring off. Tank lost round 4 to THAT dude? They are protecting his 0. Tank better pick another tomato can because Rollie did nothing and would have won’t on the cards. Tank loses to Haney; Stevenson if he comes up, and I’m putting Teofimo in there because FUCK IT. TANK has the eraser just like Tyson, and just like Tyson, he gonna lose to every boxer. Tank KO’s fighters, he won’t be a boxer. Stevenson and Haney are boxers all day. Make the 3 fights i mention and Tank loses 2 of em.

Tank Landing only 25 punches through 6 rds is horrible and when he goes up against a skilled boxer that can avoid his big shots It's going to be a huge problem for him
I just saw this after I wrote mine. All facts. Tank is overrated at a boxer. He’s a blown up brawler. See if you disagree with my prediction above.

I think Tank definitely has skills. The real problem with Rollie was that dude probably came in at 160lbs. He was noticeably bigger/longer than Tank and extremely quick/unpredictable.

It doesn’t matter how many fights Rollie had. Tank didn’t want to commit because he didn’t want to get KO’d. Instead, he saw that dude lunges forward when he fights and correctly used a check hook (plus parry out of the way).

So yeah. I disagree. He can box.

Oh yeah, I agree he can box. I think he’s really good. I also think he isn’t being tested, aside from the broken hand fight, this was a reaaaaaally soft opponent. Do you see a loss to any of the 3 I mentioned?

Stevenson is probably a loss (depending on how his power is at 135). Stevenson is a better boxer.

Haney? I think Tank gets him, he just doesn’t have the power to keep Tank honest.

Teo? At what weight? Teo is now at 140lbs. At 135? Teo is a weight bully. I got Tank at 135 and Teo at 140lbs.

I would favor both Haney and Shakur over Tank as i think they both are elite with distance control and will stay defensively disciplined for 12 rds. Teo is at 140 now and will see how he looks there before making any predictions of a hypothetical match at 140. Loma is also questionable with how he'll look if he comes back from the Ukraine situation whenever that'll be.

The fact that all these dudes duckin each other, it’s hard to really gauge how good they really are. Every last one of them are fightin soup cans so until they mix it up with each other, we don’t really know what any of them have

Teo called him out after that fight. Hinted he would fight at whatever weight. The Teo that beat Lomo smokes Tank with angles and that jab. Tank hasn’t really been wobbled or hit with much volume, so we have no clue if he gasses or has chin. Shakur would eat the body all night then go up top close the show. Teo the same. I give tank those 3 losses if those fights happen in the next 3 years.

Who you got in that fight bruh?

I’m thinking about putting a little something on Nonito Donaire.
Who do they have as the favorite in that one? Probably Inoue with Donaire a live underdog...if I was a betting man I would put something on Donaire even though I think Inoue takes it....Donaire has a way about him where it seems you can never count him out

Inoue is the favorite

I’ve been following Donaire and his wife on the build up to this fight. The last fight was close. He seems to think he can right the wrongs from that first one and he’s focused. So I’m riding with him.

Hey fellas. I’m making a prediction. Listen up…

Tank’s next fight will be a rematch with Isaac Cruz. Bank on it. You heard it here first. Mark this post for later :yes:
