I dont know i am not sure Stevenson is very tough mentally. Yes he will beat 95 percent of the fighters becuase of his style, but the truly elite fighters will break him mentally i think. I feel the same way about Haney. Does Stevenson remind you of Howard Davis. Yes i know Howard Davis never won a world title that i know of but it was much harder to do that back then. Less belts, contenders fought contenders to get to the top. etc.
We shall see, some are higher on Stevenson than others and then you have some that just think he's a good fighter with a ceiling.
When he gets in a dog fight against an opponent who is skillful and is trying to win, then we will see Stevenson's mental game. If I had to guess, I say he will pass the test. I haven't seen anything to tell me he is mentally weak up until this point tbh.
Stevenson was a US Olympian and a Silver medalist while all his fights from his pro debut have been aired. No surprise he is getting more attention than Colbert. But Colbert will get a chance to prove his worth soon enough.

Kind of crazy though , kid has good skills but is ignored while Stevenson is talked about alot (yes he is a great boxer) too defensive for my taste, however he is known more for talking big and doing stupid **** and crying after losing in the amateurs.

Difference is that Ennis is a big WW with legitimate power. But Colbert is strong as hell on the inside and fights mean. He’s going to be a problem for anyone that he gets in the ring with. Just may be a case of Tank being too big of a puncher for Colbert and eventually catching him.

Yeah Colbert is kind of like Jarron Ennis. We dont see much of him, but the kid has good skills.

Good fight, I was skeptical about Colbert at first since I'm not a fan of people calling themselves lil something or adopting another man's name in a sport like boxing. I just think it's normally lack of confidence, I'm also not a fan of the dyed hair since in my experienceit'sa sign of mental instability. But Colbert showed some good qualities in there and did a good job transforming himself from a prospect to a contender by beating Corrales and closing the show in a strong fashion in that fight, which is a clear sign that he's ready for the big time.
He seems gritty and he has a chip on his shoulder, so he's gonna be willing to walk through fire against anyone and he can also fight backwards so he could actually be successful against Tank. would definitely like to see it.
Yeah, this is another good fight. Colbert is sharp as hell but not a big puncher. I wonder if Tank would just walk him down like he did Leo in the 6th round? Colbert won't get hit with some silly shots though, and he fights very well on the inside.
Intriguing fight.

Who you all got. No one talks about this kid. Everyone talks about Stevenson, but i think Colbert is a bigger puncher and just as fast at 130.
