10/23 ESPN: Jamel Herring vs Shakur Stevenson (WBO Super Featherweight Title)

[KingOFKings]

I'm actually excited for this fight. We're going to learn all we need to know about Shakur from this one. He has all the skills, but I need him to SHOW ME he that dude they been saying he is.

I need dominance in this fight from him

Side note: Jamel been sounding dehydrated/drained throughout the last week leading to the fight. Is that just how he talks?

He has to turn it up and stop Herring IF his ambition is to become a big star.

Herring is tough and I like his story but I think Shakur is just better

I agree , if not a TKO it has to be a situation where the towel gets thrown in (should be) bc he's taking too much punishment

[Mr. Leonidas]

better get some redbull in your system...it gives you wings lol

Shiiiiiit I might need it for real, especially since I just ordered thus Dino Beef Rib the size of your head lolol...costs $53 and comes with 1 side and had to wait an hour for it to take it to go...but the plan afterwards is to link up with @BeatsBoxingMayhem and Michael Montero at a rooftop bar prior to fight for drinks and boxing talk until the main card starts since the undercard is trashhhh

Both are underdogs, it ain't like that's an indictment on him

Didn’t realize so many people didn’t like Shakur. Im hoping he win, but I understand why some of you don’t. I just didn’t know lol.

Me either.... Black people are so quick to throw other black folks out for the smallest shyt...


it's quite mind blowing.


Bih said, "i was team shakur but after the press conference i'm done" ...."I dont like him no more"..

LOL yikes. Shakur has ALWYAS been immature, so why is it a problem now??

Shakur fighting style puts me to sleep

I'm a fan of Haney , Ennis , even Tevin Farmer

but as a fellow poster once said

"Shakur be trying to sweet science people to sleep"

i hope shakur doesn't sweet science this dude tonight..at the same time i wanna see nakathila land some right hand bombs just to see how he takes it

What did @LauderdaleBoss said it best...

'Sweet Science him to death. '

nikkas would not be saying Ortiz and Boots had next if they were out there sweet sciencing dudes to death.

If you seen one Shakur fight, then you seen em all. 90% of his performances consist of sweet sciencing nikkas to death while the fans fight harder to stay awake.

but I'll take your word for it.

as I've gotten older, I grew less patient with these boring ass nikkas. I can die at any moment on some random Florida fukkery shyt. I don't want my final boxing memories to be Shakur sweet sciencing some police officer.

I'm from the era where Roy Jones was showing these social workers no mercy.

This One's For You

its cuz nikkas can't take the woke glasses off long enough to be objective. Nobody is out to make black fighters look bad. nikkas is just holding them to the standard that they get hyped to.

Everybody was giving Oscar Valdez hell, for always struggling against dudes he should be beating by 10-2 or 12-0. nikkas not even being that harsh towards Shakur. We just wanna see him fight with more urgency and get some of these mid tier ass nikkas out of there. It would help with building his brand in the long run.

Jeff Lacy would have never gotten that "He the next Mike Tyson" promo push if he would have kept sweet sciencing nikkas in distance fights against jobbers. It is what it is.

This One's For You

I think everyone is in agreement that last fight was an issue for Shakur. I dont need a KO from him every fight but you can't let a bum just stand in front of you all night and you throw 15-20 punches a round. That's not going to cut it. I fukk with Shakur and picked him to win this by stoppage. He can't look like that again.

 

[LauderdaleBoss]

Damn @shroommon you pulling out the greatest hits collection with these posts

I'm lowkey more looking forward to BMF then this fight, but I do hope we get a decent scrap from these nikkas.

I don't need to see a FOTY year candidate (but that would be nice) I just wanna see both guys go for it and fight with some urgency.
