2 weight Lineal Champ Teofimo Lopez has been undermined on the P4P lists which is crazy to me but the boxing world will be shaken up when beats Stevenson come the 31st.
if a latino and a black meet in a big fight 9 times out of 10 the black wins, if not more.... even if they are half the size like crawford v canelo they still usually whoop them, im sorry if that upsets people but thats just the way it is
He looks like big worm from Friday :pat:
:lol1: Kudos for honoring the bet.
Big Worm Donny was my final choice. I almost went with Big Baby Toupee.

Well this aged well! What planet are you on dude? Teo was vastly overrated. He has never fought an American soul brutha in his entire career and now we can see the reason why?
I cant see Teo beating Stevenson
Lmao...Teo thinks he has a mental edge over Stevenson but dude is a headcase himself. Shakur's gonna piece him up. I see it going 10-2 or 9-3 in Stevenson's favor. Clear UD.
Not surprised that a guy with ODLH in his signature is delusional.
Why is it so hard for people to be objective and think logically? In what world does Teofimo Lopez have the skillset to beat Stevenson?
Great match up. We'll see what both men are made of. I think Stevenson frustrates Teo and takes the decision.
I'm not really a fan of either guys, but I will pick Stevenson to beat Teo. I think Shakur is one of the best technical boxers atm..
I get the point and I have no excuse for the **** performance from either of them, it was one of the worst 'fights' if you can even call it that, that I have ever had the misfortune of watching.
Like I said I need to check both out in actual detail rather than as a fan if you will. I do not think Shakur is as great or dare I say talented as some people do but when I think of Teo vs southpaws and pure-boxers I think of him getting outboxed by Kamboses, by the Spaniard whose name escapes me - granted he's very underrated and probably gives Shakur a tough fight also. I felt the fight with Ortiz was razor thin.
That's 3 pure-boxers he's fought, he could be 0-3 vs them.
As horrendous as that fight with DLS was I could easily see this playing out similar. I remember Teo being massively frustrated vs Ortiz and the Spaniard and he ran into multiple check-hooks and got dropped by a total non-puncher. He's very hot headed when someone won't engage and makes him do the chasing and lead.
Teo is extremely athletic and explosive and like virtually every other super fast-twitch, athletic fighter he isn't the most fundamentally sound so he without those fundamentals he's always going to struggle massively vs pure-boxers who have the basics, the fundamentals down.
I think Teo is bigger, stronger, a better athlete, better balance, hits harder, maybe even has better reaction timing but I just think it comes to styles and Shakur being more polished and the better technical boxer. As boring as he is, his composure. I think that simply neutralises the advantages of Teo.
I am from NJ so I’m going with Shakur to give Teo a boxing lesson.
Just hope it’s a good fight.
Good picks you guys called it.

I’m hyped for this fight too and it’s definitely one of those “anything can happen” matchups. Stevenson’s skills are crazy sharp, but Lopez has power and confidence. It could be a real shake‑up like you said. I wouldn’t totally count either guy out yet.
Also, for anyone planning to watch it live, I had to sort out my streaming setup and ended up looking up the fubotv phone number to check if the fight was included in my package and what channels it’s on. They were pretty helpful getting me squared away so I wouldn’t miss any of the action.
Should be a wild night no matter how it goes!
