Who Tank best win
Just spoke one who had a very strong take on this. I wonder if others feel the same.
Re: Who Tank best win
Pedraza.
Re: Who Tank best win
Who's Tank's best win, or Who is Tank's best win.
Re: Who Tank best win
Well you got in before me. No offence OP, but Boxrec seems to be a UK dominated forum, and "who tank best win" as a title to a thread is bound to be followed by a lot of rolled eyes. You might get away with that appalling English in the US, but we're mostly limeys here, boys: if you want us to join in you're going to have to meet us half way. If you talk like that over here people are going to think you're not the full shilling.

Re: Who Tank best win
It terms of a status and skills it's Santa Cruz. But it was in fact the fight against a guy from the lower cathegory. Pedraza is a good win, which has increased in value more with time. Apart from these two, it's nothing to chose. Maybe Barrios will became like the Pedraza case in the future, but now it doesn't look valuable.

Re: Who Tank best win
i still like the pedraza win the most, took a big step up at the time to absolutely batter and stop a solid champ who is still having success today, having won a belt at 135 and getting good wins at 140. no other opponent battered ped like that even moving up in weight. it's not like he had already been brutally ko'd before and after, or was shot afterwards
leo obviously was a great ko, but i think leo had stagnated a lot and was already beyond his best weight and peak, and i had him up 3-2 over tank when ko happened
barrios a good win, but i did think barrios won 4-5 rounds, so not nearly as dominant from tank. he looked umcomfortable and confused until round 5. moving up to 140 adds a plus, but overall not his best performance for me

Re: Who Tank best win
but tbh, as much as i rate tank, for a guy who seems to have p4p #1 potential, these wins are still falling short of what i think he's capable of
i want to see him in with an elite opponent, stop the weight jumping cherrying
unfortuently, floyd and ellerbee say 'pbc opponents only'.....which cuts out the top oppponents all the way from 130-140

Re: Who Tank best win
Santa Cruz is his most accomplished opponent that he defeated. Barrios probably represented the biggest challenge due to size, height, and power and all that.

Re: Who Tank best win
leo hadnt done jack sheet at 130 though. for me leo is a fighter who was continually matched vs smaller opponents from 118 up. then he finally moves up to a weight where guys are his size, he gets a cherry picked secondary belt vs a nobody, then fights tank
i think ped> leo at 130
i think ped> leo at 130

Re: Who Tank best win
Pedrosa is the best win although i think he is better at 135+ than he was at 130. Leo is the best name, but he is tiny so not the best win. Barros hasnt done much but was a big boy so fair play.
Desperately needs a top guy in there correct weight.

Apologies. Just trying to help, and messing with you a bit.world ranked wrote: ↑27 Jun 2021, 19:38Damn really being that press. Of course you knew what I meant.
Re: Who Tank best win
Pedraza, based on his decent showing against Lomachenko and some other wins. It is about how Davis defeat him. He just slaughtered that guy.

Re: Who Tank best win
Pedraza his best win my opinion, Santa Cruz undersized and aged by the time they met..
Re: Who Tank best win
I was tempted to answer the question like Barrios Are Tank Best win
Re: Who Tank best win
Who WILL BE Tank best win @ the end of his career...?
More interesting question imo.

Re: Who Tank best win
Davis and Lomachenko displayed pound for pound form in separate bouts, on the same day. Almost seems like a missed opportunity.
