Tank says, "People want to see me lose..."

[tomhawq]

That's what he said in an interview weeks or so ago, reason why he wants to retire.

How many of you want to see him lose?

[Mario040481]

I saw him lose.

[famicommander]

We saw him lose yesterday.

And yeah, I want to see him lose some more. He's a terrible person, he has a ridiculously padded record, and he walks around with an undeserved sense of accomplishment.

I always root against woman-beaters and hit-and-run drunk drivers. I always root against cherrypickers. And he checks all of those boxes.

thats wot tank fans always say everyone wants to see me lose LOL its a common boxing theme u will notice

reality is not everyone likes every fighter!!! and tank with his ducking boasting ways and his fans as well arebound to irritate some people in fact thats also a common theme pick a popular fighter and they usually have haters!!!! very very few exceptions!!!!

maybe bivol and beter are expecetrpions weirldly they just go about their business efficiently and basically do what they are supposed to do!!!!! and do it well actually

He's one of the most unlikeable fighters in modern history.

When he came on the scene in his early 20's with the hype behind him and his exciting style and KO power I was behind him.

Since then, he's fought nobody in the Top 5, has a ridiculous over inflated idea of his career, totally deluded, instead of fighting the top level guys he just writes about them on twitter when they lose, openly avoids fighters like Lomachenko, Haney etc, is the only fighter on the planet that turns down Saudi money because he has no interest in fighting any of the top guys not even way over the top Saudi money can entice him and thinks saying "give me 3 Lambo's" is a funny retort when it does nothing but make him look more brain dead than he already does.

So it shouldn't come as a surprise when people dislike the guy.

Not to mention he almost killed a car full of 19 year olds in a drunk driving hit and run and regularly beats the hell out of women (sometimes in public).

[TheProudLunatic]

If he had a personality, he could parlay this bad guy image into a moneymaker.

[The Big Dunn]

I think he is absolutely correct.

We’ve seen this before with high profile boxers like him that keep winning, regardless of their out of ring behavior.

Those of you old enough should remember that going into the Duran fight there were plenty of comments about SRL, who I am not a fan of, not having fought anyone.

Everyone sees the comments directed at Roy and Floyd. Now it’s Tank. While it is more reasonable in the case of Tank, it is nonetheless a very repetitive and disturbing pattern.

did u notice this with loma and ggg say for example????

[The Big Dunn]

did u notice this with loma and ggg say for example????

Not on this site-no.

Loma lost his 2nd fight so people just clowned him for losing. GGG, yes, his resume was constantly questioned on the come up. There isn’t a pattern here that goes back as far.

I think people defended GGG when he got that loss to Canelo. I did. It surely wasn’t celebrated.

Same thing with Leonard, Roy, Floyd, Tank, Haney, Wilder, Spence, Crawford.

You’ve been here as long as I have so I know you’ve seen it. Maybe just not paying close attention.
