Damn near impossible to cut that much weight in an hour and be functional for a fight in 24 hours. They didnt even try to cut the pound

Tank probably won't be able to stay at 135 for long, any chance he can do well at 147 which is the weight class for him to make the kind of money he wants? You would think 147 might be too much for him because of his short height and reach but Manny has done it at 147, Manny has been the only 1 to do it at 147 being that short tho so will see if Tank can do it

A pound and a half in less than an hour? Nah I dont buy that bs for one second lol. Throw some money under the table at the people running the scales and they can tell us anything to protect the image and the pockets of any fighter they want

Unreal he just moved up and is struggling to make weight. Too much egg nog 
Will be interesting to see if he continues to move up and how long his power translates.

I don't know. Manny is very experienced at this point. Has always had the gas to go 12 rds. And hasn't had a KO since Mattysse. Before that it was Cotto. Matthysse was his one KO in like 15 fights.
Tank is a great boxer but that power is a major factor. If he can't keep guys off him at a higher weight it could be a problem. And how will he hold up for 12rds of that?
Where Manny I feel is mobile and crafty enough to do that without the same Pop.

Tank is barely 5'5" based on what I've heard. He will be at a major disadvantage if he goes to 140.

Tank’s problem is that he blows up in between fights. His body isn’t outgrowing divisions, he’s eating himself out of them.

Lack of discipline. Downfall of many great fighters.
Pac listed around the same I think.

Since Marco Huck vs Joyce is off we may possibly see Dubois vs Joyce in April

Davis appears to be shorter than Pacquiao. But I heard Teofimo Lopez say that he thinks Tank will be small even for a 135 lber.

So do y’all think tank is too small for 140?

The top five light welterweights are all 5'8"-5'10". Tank might be able to beat Baranchyk, Postol, and Relikh. I don't think he would fare well against Prograis, Taylor, and Ramirez.

If Felix Verdejo didn't get into that motorcycle accident this division would be even more fire.

That's a lazy comparison . AB goes rounds with only throwing a few punches

So it seems like the plan is for Tank to make 2020 ppv debut vs LSC if he wins tonight as planned. Tank and Loma might be 2 fighters making ppv debuts in 2020

Walking the same path as bonehead broner. Fought smaller no name dudes and immediately went on a decline when he fought someone with a pulse.
