He’s another Ryan Garcia if we being honest ... these kids N the crying on social media about errything


Clout chasing with Youngboys umbrella


Crying about Tank Teo Ryan N Haney getting Shine


Running up on Herring N filming him while he’s at dinner with TR officials


Twitter fingers N excuses 4 minutes after the fight


His Team need to do better by him .... N y’all crazy if you think Arum isn’t goin give him the Rigo treatment if his career stays on this course

You guys gotta be very careful with that type of argument because not every black fighter is slick. Its never been that way...ever. We aren't a monolith in boxing

On top of that there are slick black fighters that have got props for the performances on here in their most recent fights

Custio Clayton, Chris Colbert, Boots Ennis, Ra'eese Aleem, even Stephen Fulton

On the flipside like @LauderdaleBoss said all I have to do is look in the last Andrade fight thread and that mega career thread..there are far more insulting and stupider things that were said about him than about Shakur..and he is a slick black fighter who is undefeated and a current world champion.

Yes the fight was a 120-107 across the board but there was still negatives that you can point out in Shakur's performance. You dont want to see a Rigo situation develop. Rigo 120-108 Agbeko after Kirkland nearly murdered Glen Tapia in a fire fight...it was a horrible fight..and it got Rigo demoted to HBO Latino afternoon cards.

And I like Shakur...I've seen him fight live 3 times and I've met the kid..I think hes a good fighter but I'm not gonna front like his last 2-3 fights were the biz. You cant fight slick just to be slick if you're not working to get a lesser fighter out of there. That's where I hope he turns the corner.

All facts
The bolded is why I said all this fake ass woke stance nikkas is on is bullshyt.
Some of these nikkas is bigger fans of Canelo than they are of being pro black and its clear as day in that thread.

all that love for slick boxing Black Americans goes out the window when its time to defend Canelo.

Shoutouts to the real fans that aren't afraid to say that both Andrade and Shakur can be boring at times.

Great numbers, not so great a showing. Hopefully he bounces back and gets out of pot-shot mode.

That distance that he’s able to maintain is a rare quality that should be commended more.

In saying that this is prize fighting so I understand the backlash.

He just gotta keep winning for a couple more years and then his career really starts.
