I’m kinda up in the air with Shakur. I really don’t think it’s a good idea for him to fight Loma at 135. He still has to clean out HIS division. After that’s done. Why not?
Arum will do anything to keep that cheat Valdez from getting completely embarrassed by Shakur.
Fight should’ve happened when Shakur beat Herring. He should’ve fought herring instead of the awkward guy he fought the fight before Herring.
It was like Arum put him in there knowing this awkward dude would lead to a bad performance that would lower stock. Meanwhile he gives Valdez an easy dude to shine with.
Now he’s talking Loma. Cool. Let Shakur box him into retirement and then by that time maybe Valdez will either have my boy Navarette beat him down or Valdez cheats so badly that he gets suspended.
Stevenson hasn't been brought up right with Top Rank. As good as they are I think they developed him poorly but maybe he didn't need it. His biggest strength to me is how fast he processes everything. Loma is still Loma. They should make this fight.
- - Nobody but a few thug morons know Shak from Shaq. When the kid can make a name for himself, then they can fight.
Loma not much longer in boxing wants to maximize his efforts, so now Kambo bigger than any 5 stinker fights the usual suspects want combined for him.
Call me when Stevenson starts showing interest in the fight. I don't dwell on thinking about fights that I know won't happen. It's a waste of mental energy. There are lots of fights fans want to see. Tank vs Lomachenko, Lomachenko vs Haney, Haney vs Garcia, Garcia vs Tank, Tank vs Haney, etc. They're not happening. So why add more?
Stevenson seems interested.....
I'm a little bit surprised that so many have gone all in on the Shakur bandwagon. To me his biggest credential right now is that Bud Crawford said he was the heir to the pfp throne. That speaks volumes to me, but otherwise he is very untested.
I still wonder about Shakur's power, especially moving up. Herring was a damn punching bag that night, I really have no clue what his gameplan was, still.
I'm not completely sold on the kid yet so I'd still favor Loma in a current fight. Especially since Loma has dominated everyone that size/weight that he's ever fought.
Regardless, if they do fight. Loma fans will say he clearly won, Shakur fans will say he clearly won. Can't wait for it! sarcasm
It's possible Lomachenko is fading, but I don't think Stevenson hits hard enough to keep Lomachenko hesitant and I think Lomachenko's activity probably leads to a points win
Yeah that tends to be a big factor when fighters meet at different stages of their careers.

currently it's 50/50 for me, but we'll see how Loma does this weekend. If Loma looks a little off, i think we could confidently pick Stevenson and Arum will be cashing out Loma.
It has been Shown through Science that Stevenson has better defense than the great Floyd Mayweather Jr.
If Lomachencko couldn’t touch Teofimo Lopez, he won’t be able to touch Stevenson either.
LOL he didn't touch Teo? did you fall asleep after 5 rounds?
So..... This is a fight Bob has been floating the idea about. Who do you guys think wins?
- - 90 yr old Uncle Bob not likely to be around to see that fight.
What happened to that criminal assault charge on a female in a parking garage. Shak gonna serve time?

Just a thought but if you truly believe that Loma’s shoulder injury and resultant surgery should be ignored, maybe you should change your sig pic. Lol..
the sig pic is making fun of his blind followers. I don't like Loma making excuses, Lopez making excuses, or Tank making excuses after last night. I call bullshit on all of that nonsense. If you're hurt, keep yo azz home...
there is ALWAYS an excuse when he loses. ALWAYS. low blows, shoulder, and when he loses again it will be age. I hate these bull**** azz bandwagon fans making excuses

He can't just be better than Loma if he wins?
