Very much so.
By, ‘none of them guys’, I assume he is referring to Rolly Romero, Barios and Isaac Cruz.
Rolly Romero actually has some good tools, but he recently got “canceled” (something I’d never thought I’d see in boxing) and will have trouble getting big fights.
Burgos what the hell?
Burgos is a free spirit! He dances to his own rhythm, like a twirling leaf in the wind!
Kim with wisdom, as usual.
Shut up Steve
Burgos over here stomping on your turf Barry!!
Like a leaf in the wind, he needs to blow away.
Steve is correct though.
Well yea… 10 other media related people said the same. There’s nothing mind blowing he said. He’s the Kenny Florian of the boxing world
BURGOOOOOS!!!
Lol
Tank is big in the black/hip hop community so he seems like a bigger star than he is.
He’s banking on his fights being an event where black celebs go to see and be seen.
But I don’t see how he monetizes that without fighting somebody relevant.
Zab Judah already had that following. But Zab had the balls to fight anyone.
Agreed. Tank is an exciting fighter. He is similar to Canelo, in some ways. His style, patience, and ability to finish.
However, recently Floyd blamed others for his lack of universal appeal. Blamed reporters for Tank not being in PPV top ten, blamed people focusing on Canelo as a star, when there are other stars.
However, it’s just because he is not fighting top guys. Canelo became a star after fighting Mayweather, GGG, Cotto etc. He didn’t start out with the power he does now.
If Tanks fights Lomachenko, every boxing fan would watch that fight. And if he won, he would be a true star. And if he lost, as Caenlo did to Floyd, he would be more well known.
This ‘avoid losses at all costs’, can have some benefits. But so can the other routes.
