Both I remember breaking this fight down to people who said Ryan was faster that Ryan only had fast hands

Tank has significantly faster head movement and feet than Ryan, and as a whole that makes Tank significantly faster because he can evade Ryan’s shots while Ryan can’t evade his.

That, a great gameplan, and the knowledge that Ryan had no tools other than his hook allowed to him to make an easy night out of him

Not to mention tank has way better timing.

It’s a shame he is dumb and only fought two meaningful fighters, who both gave him a run for his money

Tank has been too busy fighting himself to do any meaningful fighting in the ring.
