Not really, Coach Calvin basically said he is going through some things...I take it that he may be sick or got some other personal issues...that man is like a father to Tank...if there was real beef he wouldnt have been there tonight
I hope coach calvin is good because there's no tank without him. That's the reason tank has been so good in his fights because calvin properly trained him and had him prepared for these fights.

So, therefore I wish coach calvin great health or whatever personal issues he has that it gets solved.

If tank is really serious about boxing his next fight should be Shakur Steveson
Next fight is Lamont...I expect Lamont to lose as I feel he fought over his head in this one (Lamont proved me wrong once and he may do so again)

Shakur brittle hands will be an issue if he fights Tank...Shakur wont fall for Tank's traps and won't make crazy mistakes so Tank will have to force the action like he did tonight...Shakur will have to have enough pop to keep Tank honest in those exchanges...thats where those fucked up hands may become a problem

SHakur is not ready for tank's power, once tank gets him, it's over. Shakur is a boring fighter because he has no power in his punches nor can he knock anyone out and he loves to run a lot or hug his fighter to try to catch his breath.

That fight shakur won against with padley was boring as shit because shakur won that fight because white boy was tired as shit.

Your opinion of Shakur is different from mine...I think Shakur is a great talent...and Tank gotta catch him with the right shot and there is no guarantee of that...but brittle hands aint good

I'll be awake to watch this shakur vs tank fight compared any other fight shakur had which made me fight my sleep to try to watch his fights.

It's hard beating someone that knows your style. I kind of knew Roach wasn't getting knocked out. He didn't get stopped in the amateurs and I didn't get any reports of him getting stopped in sparring. Thus, I knew it would be a good fight. The next time Tank will be a little bit more sharper.

Tank needs to fight someone else because he's more hungrier when he does.

Barry Hunter is great and has history with Tank...Ford was there too
Tank’s corner was a complete shit show.
Too many voices.
Barry Hunter is a good motivator, but he’s not all that when it comes to X’s and O’s.
I don’t know why coach Calvin wasn’t running the show.
He should have been the sole voice in the corner.
Tank got schooled tonight.

I say Roach surprises us and goes the distance or win
First of all Roach not scared of him so he's not just coming for a check.

The fact Tank talked too much about retiiring when u start that retirement talk means your head not in the right space, he hasn't been very active, he loses rds, what if that punch he set traps for doesnt connect.

And most importantly I don't like agreeing with yall mfers and I wanna go against the grain. Fuck it lol oh and I wanna be right
Ok

watching a bootleg. Tank backed up, danced around and did nothing first 3 rounds. Roach could have been up 3-0. I got it 2-1 Roach so far.

Round 7 to Roach. Tank started out will, Roach came back and shut down Tanks work. Tsnk basically froze for most of the round, so 7 to Roach. 4-3 Roach

Tank ate many shots, two uppercuts and a counter. Roach’s lack of a jab is what’s causing these rounds to be questionable to judges. Roach wins round 8. 5-3 Roach.

Round 9 the bullshit happened. Any other fight that’s a 10-8 for Roavh but Tank put in work so call that round even.
Roach was winning 10 easily then let Tsnk catch him too many times. Tank backed up much of that round and threw freer punches. Round 10 to Roach.

Round 11 to Tank. It’s close and he complained a lot but Roach not jabbing enough cost him this round. He threw similar around of power shots but nothing else.
Roach round 12. Tank didn’t do shit.

Robbery. They had Tsnk up one 1-2 rounds all fight. Nonsense. Roach won that.

Won't claim to be a boxing historian but has there been an Olympic fighter around that size that's been considered knockout machine? Kur fights those Olympic style fights. He's going to pitty pat you for 12 rounds and beat you on points. He'll do the same to Tank.

Tank struggled with Roach, so I can see Shakur beating him. Shakur jabs, something Roach wouldn’t do. As I said above, a jab would have made this fight an easy decision but he didn’t thrown enough—Shakur won’t make that mistake and would have won the first 6 round on every card. No he won’t knock Tank out, but he could knock him down and so would Haney. You all don’t see the holes I’ve long said were there with Tank—he doesn’t adjust well after getting f clipped because he never gets clipped. Roach caught him clean and often with no follow-up. Shakur beats Tank outside of walking into something because Tank could find Roach most of this fight.

Dont agree on Barry Hunter but too many voices thing could be true...I will say that they were saying that Tank forgot which round it was when Barry was telling him how many rounds he needed and waited too late...as if they didn't how late in the fight it was...if thats true, thats on the corner
