We're on the blood path now
Agreed. Dunno if herring is the one to do it but I do not like the kid or his style. For sure I think Valdez beats his ass.

Shakur got that speed but I'm going to side with Herring in hoping that he doesn't get overwhelmed by that.

Shakur's back foot is a gift. Not many boxers get a back foot like that.
That and his straight left to the body are his best attributes.
Left is different this fight.
Herring might run him, but Shakur too good imo. Wins an easy decision.

ATLANTA – A stone-faced Jamel Herring stood approximately three inches taller than Shakur Stevenson as they went face-to-face following their weigh-in Friday afternoon.
His three-inch height advantage aside, Herring remains a huge underdog entering their 12-round, 130-pound championship match Saturday night at State Farm Arena. Caesars Sportsbook lists Stevenson as a 9-1 favorite over Herring, even though Herring will make the fourth defense of his WBO junior lightweight title in a main event ESPN will televise as the headliner of a three-bout broadcast set to start at 10:30 p.m. EDT.
Herring, 35, officially weighed 129.8 pounds when he stepped on the Georgia Athletic & Entertainment Commission’s scale at the Omni Atlanta Hotel at CNN Center. Stevenson, 24, officially weighed exactly 130 pounds.
Herring (23-2, 11 KOs), a Cincinnati resident raised in Coram, New York, is 7-0 since he joined Terence Crawford’s training team of Brian McIntyre and Jacqui “Red” Spikes early in 2018. Stevenson (16-0, 8 KOs), a 2016 Olympic silver medalist from Newark, New Jersey, has won all three of his junior lightweight fights since he vacated his WBO featherweight title in the spring of 2020 to compete within the 130-pound division.
