RBR ***Official*** Sherdog Sanctioned Tank vs. Roach 3/1 8PM ET (Prime)

[Roids]

I think we can all agree that the judges would be biased towards tank. So the fact they scored it a draw should tell you how clearly Roach really won that fight.

 

[chardog]

what a bullshit fight, Roach should have won even without that down knee, the addition was insult to injury.

 

[pugilistico]

"You take a knee like that, that looks like a knock down.."

Ahhhh that's because it's literally ruled as a knockdown in boxing...Was this dude reffing an AAU basketball game earlier in the afternoon???

What genius excuses will this guy come up with next?
"If you throw in the towel, it looks like you lost the fight."
"If you load your gloves, it looks like you were trying to cheat."

So this was another cherrypicked opponent for Tank only this one blew up in his face. He chose a guy that he was previously 2-0 against in the amateurs. It was Roach's lightweight debut meaning he wasn't even rated in the division lol. He moved up from super featherweight.

Edit. I take that back. Roach had previously fought at lightweight but not since 2017 and back then it was against low level opposition.

Tank's yet to give the fans the fights we've wanted and it's been many years. He was too concerned with protecting his 0. Like the Brits and other countries for that matter a lot of Americans simply root for their own guys. I don't just because they're of the same nationality. I've never liked Tank but I do recognize his skill and how dangerous he is. Tank's been relying too much on his power. He needs to get back to basics. Roach should get an immediate rematch.

The timeout is hilarious.

At least Tank didn’t get the W.

How'd you score it?

115-113 Roach, so I’m not really mad at the 114-114 cards. That’s a close fight to me… but not taking the knee into account is obviously an issue.

That's how I had it 115-113 Roach. The BoxRec community has it 9-3 Roach which is much wider than we had it. I'll have to rewatch it to see how they came to that score.

Well I can see how quite a few fans could root against Tank, plus as Seano said people may have focused on Roach because they were surprised while Davis was still getting some work done.

I agree it's too wide but those are the unofficial scorecards of almost 150 BoxRec members.

True. It's probably the "did better than expected" bias that we've seen over the years in other fights.

Tank was a 16-1 favorite? That's crazy. He needs to run it back immediately and wreck this dude.

 

[mogul]

Tank will take another year off and talk shit.

Definitely lost today and he should have been humbled with that 1 on his record
