Agreed but then again Gatti made a HBO career out highlight reel KO's of limited hand-picky guys in action fights. So Davis should benefit from the same trajectory in a shallower era.
Tank would have hit him again, as a Pay Per View Pound For Pound star he's allowed to. In fact if LSC had even a shred of courtesy he'd have stayed in the pocket for just one more blow. But nobody is tough anymore.
Mayweather Jr is the one picking who Davis fights. Just like he picked who he himself fought. Thinking Ellerbe is calling any shots is pure ignorance
Tank's KO is the number #1 thing trending on YouTube right now. Yup, I think he's becoming a crossover star.
The trend on social media seems to be that ALLLLLL the casuals are calling for the Garcia fight. Ryan is bigger among casuals than I thought. Davis-Garcia will do big PPV numbers. It has to be on PPV - please don't put that shit on DAZN where no one's gonna fuckin watch.
Soooo You're Praising Floyd for Being a Good MATCHMAKER???...Really??? Who the Fuck COULDN'T Do That Neil???...REED's Done It...YOU Could Do It...X Could Do It...REAL Talk... Picking LOWEST Common Denominator Opponents Doesn't Mean Shit, Especially Today...The Last GREAT Matchmaker was Johnny Bos Who was PRE-Internet, PRE-BoxRec, PRE-CellPhones, etc...Compared to Bos, Modern Day Matchmaking is a JOKE, Especially When You Have a PBC, Top Rank, Golden Boy or Matchroom Budget Behind You... The Rub is Having the Means of TELEVISING Fighter's AS They Fight LOWER Common Denominator Opponents, Which Has NATHAN FUCKING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH FLOYD BRUH!!!... Is That CLEAR???...Do You COMPREHEND???... Floyd Can SAY, "I Want Tank to Fight" THIS Guy or THAT Guy, But Who's NEGOTIATING the Contracts, Neil???...Who's Nailing Down the Venue???...Who's TELEVISING the Shit???...You REALLY Think Floyd Is???... Whenever You Wanna Address THE FACT You Perpetually Shit On Al Haymon @ EVERYfuckingTURN, While Simultaneously PRAISING Floyd for Basically LEACHING Off of Haymon's Work and Influence, Feel FREE... REED
mayweather jr gets all the credit for moving davis at the correct pace. picking the right 2 (only legitimate) opponents davis has fought, pedraza coming off a layoff and who was drained at the weight for davis first title, and then a smaller big name in santa cruz. you said yourself haymon lets the fighters be as ambitious as their team so chooses, now you want to give him credit for this? Davis just viciously destroyed haymons boy
1st of All, LSC CALLED OUT Tank, Neil...Just as Abner Did, Initially...Floyd Didn't "PICK" Shit & You Fucking KNOW It... 2nd, Excuse REED for NOT Fellating Floyd for Having Al Haymon Negotiate, Sign and Televise a Fight On PBC PPV...Yes, Haymon ALLOWS Them to Pick and Choose, But There's a LOT More to Actually MAKING a Fight Than Merely Saying "Gimme THAT Guy"... & Since WHEN is LSC "Haymon's Boy"???...Dude Has Over 200 Fighters On his Roster...Please Be SPECIFIC On What Makes LSC Special in That Regard???... REED
everyone knows santa cruz is haymons boy. who gives a fuck whether or not santa cruz called davis out? the fight got made because the one picking the fights for him accepted it and he scored a spectacular knock out that everyone in the sports world is talking about. plenty of people called mayweather jr out and he didnt fight them. but when it suited him he fought marquez. you just love to argue about dumb shit
Who Gives a Fuck if LSC Called Tank Out???...Uuuuuh, FLOYD OBVIOUSLY Does Neil!!... LSC PRESENTED Himself to Tank as an Opponent, THEN Al Haymon Dotted the I's and Crossed the T's to Make the Shit Happen... Yet SOMEHOW, LSC SPEAKING the Fight Into Existence and Haymon BRINGING the Fight to Fruition Goes on Floyd's Resume???...You REALLY Think Nobody Else Recognized LSC was Undersized and Toooooooooo SLOW for Tank???...You REALLY Think Floyd "Saw Something" and Hand Picked LSC, Even Though he Had Already CALLED OUT Tank 1st???... REED Argues FACTS; You're The One Arguing DUMB SHIT... Mares Calls Tank Out, Eye Gets Fucked Up In Sparring, Then LSC Calls Tank Out...But Yeah, it was ALL FLOYD!!!...Had to Be!!!... Fuck Outta Here Neil...You're DICK RIDING Right Now Bruh...& it's NOT a Good Look... REED
Im speaking facts. you are the one who wants to debate this shit. everything i said is true. the results speak for themself. i get the impression it bothers you that mayweather jr was the one who was able to guide the current biggest star in haymons stable.
Please HIGHLIGHT Anything REED Said that was the LEAST Bit Incorrect Neil... In-Ring Post-Fight Interviews, Post-Fight Pressers and the Fine Print of Fight Contracts/Posters VALIDATES What REED's Saying... Abner Mares CALLED OUT Tank...Leo Santa Cruz CALLED OUT Tank...Is that FACTUAL or NOT???....Just Because YOUR Lame, Dick Riding Ass "Doesn't Care" DOESN'T Make the Shit ANY Less Factual... Did it HAPPEN Or NOT???... REED Gets the Feeling You're Willing to LIE and Take It UP the Ass to Discredit the Man that MADE "Money May"...Timeline Speaks for ITSELF, However... Again, HIGHLIGHT ANYTHING REED Said that Wasn't Accurate OR Shut the Fuck Up... REED
Probably DRUNK and/or had Weed in the Car...No Other Reason to FLEE the Scene of an Accident...No Doubt, Tank was Driving Some High End Vehicle that'll Be EASILY Identifiable Also... Showtime Hasn't Even Shown the Santa Cruz REPLAY Yet & Tank's ALREADY Fucking Up... REED
In Floyd's defense, this has NOTHING to do with him. He can't stop Tank from doin dumb shit. He's a grown ass man.
mayweather jr positioned this kid to make serious, serious money. he may still do so, but angelo dundee would tell him he's blowin it.
Embarrassing. He's clearly thicker than shit. I don't blame Floyd, how could anyone. He's not this guys minder.
Yes, Gatti was the A-Side and Made More than Floyd...Tank was the A-Side and Made LESS Than Santa Cruz... How in the Hell is That "Masterful"???... REED
At 2 in the morning no less. If there was anybody else in the car i can see them claiming they were the driver in return for some compensation.
Yeah, There'll Be a Mile Looooooooooooooong Line of Brothers Willing to Take the Rap for Tank... But the Witness(es) Who Claimed Tank was Driving Will Need to Be "Compensated" Also...Personally Speaking, the Bidding Would START @ $1mil CASH...REED Wouldn't Go ANY Loooooooower than $750k Either...
