To which, Rolly immediately replied, “Then Jake Paul said about his taxes right. That he pays more in taxes than his fu*ing whole career. And fu*ing Tank took down the tweet like a dumbass. I mean, Tank doesn’t have 2 million to bet anyway. Because he’s broke as f**k. That’s the reason he’s fighting me, he’s broke. He ain’t got no money anyway. Like, dude, he owes money for cases, he owes taxes.”

He further added, “It appears that people make money. But they don’t. Just because somebody spends impulsively doesn’t mean that they have money. He’s living paycheck to paycheck and he didn’t hit pay per views.”

Tank Davis is one of the most loved boxers by the audience, which has led to adding millions to his account. Apparently, Romero believes that although Tank leads an extravagant lifestyle, he does not earn enough to pay 2 million for a bet.
