Why would they put Shakur v Valdez at MGM


Neither have the fan base for Vegas

They need to put it in Atlantic City, all his Jersey fans can pull up. Shyt I would go. Bet on him and the ticket would pay for itself.

Crazy how they have him running all over the country but hes only fought in Newark once.

Stevenson is a terrible matchup for anyone to be honest, he is destined for number one P4P type of status unless he falls off hard.

Early to state that for my taste cause there are some other supertalented guys, out there but I can agree that he'll be a top 10 P4P fighter at least at a point unless we find out his chin is janky

Gen Z Sports Fans Loves Boxing, New Data Shows

Good article but I was thinking of asking fans who said they are fans of the sport about whether these YTer fights impacted them becoming fans or not or even if these introduced them the sport or not

Oscar can crack. And he’ll be the first guy to test Shakurs chin. Still pick Shakur to win.

Oscar aint testing shyt.... besides positive for PED's.... again

This is gonna be Shakur's Floyd vs. Gatti moment. Too much skill.

Shakur actually seems to be getting paid with Top Rank and I doubt that the Crawford shyt and anything to do with that tho that’s just happen to be convenient.

But that Herring fight actually raised the profile for him and made him the champ. So it’s going to be nice to see him beat Valdez, he might have a little struggle because Valdez never comes to lay down. But once he beat Valdez then he will get a full blown ESPN push and I’m guessing the Navarrete and Loma fight will be on horizon.

What?! Lol

 

[bigbadbossup2012]

What?! Lol

He's going to be a major major problem for whatever style is in front of him, he's that good

 

[mr. smoke weed]

Why is he alluding to ducking?!?

Yea Shakur is a really really good boxer. I pulled up his 7 minute YouTube highlight reel.....looks the same as two years ago.

Dunno if his chin has been tested yet, but railing off combos vs Mexican line cooks won't work in q couple years. He'll definitely outbox Valdez, but can he take his shot?

Shakur gonna KO him brutally and make him quit? Floyd also had many more skilled opponents before he took on Gatto.
