Comments Thread For: Canelo 'Surprised' Oscar Valdez Underestimated Again Ahead Of Shakur Stevenson Fight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Shakur Stevenson obviously is a more complete fighter than Miguel Berchelt was in his prime. Stevenson's diverse skill set, which was fully displayed during his 10th-round stoppage of Jamel Herring in his last fight, has made him a heavy favorite over Oscar Valdez. Canelo Alvarez is still surprised Valdez's doubters haven't given him more respect in advance of the unbeaten WBC super featherweight champion's title unification fight versus Stevenson.

Valdez is about to get that sweet science work

Stevenson is going to make a statement. I rate him higher than Haney or Tank.

Me too

Well I still think Tank might be very good but he’s pretty much in his late 20’s now, he’s not as young as those guys he gets grouped with and it seems he’s stagnated by not fighting good opponents. I don’t think it’s helped his development at all.

Tank is 28 this year, time goes fast, before you know it and in 3-4 fights time he’ll have entered his 30’s, which is no spring chicken for a lightweight/featherweight really.

Too bad this fight is not getting the hype that it deserves. It is a good match up and I slightly favor Stevenson but would not be surprised if Valdez finds an extra gear and pulls off with the win.

Right. Tank’s much too talented to be fighting lower-tier opposition. He (or Floyd) has let his career wither thus far. Hopefully after the Rolly fight, given that he wins, we’ll see him collect the major titles at 135.

Valdez is a drug cheat. https://www.the-sun.com/sport/361759...ing-conceicao/

I hope they knock each other out.

[Chris Hanson]

This is a major fight: really shows how much the sport has fallen. The winner should be a super star, but they won’t

Well, at least Stevenson didn't hit the girl like his punk boyfriend in the white tee.

I'm sure Valdez took fewer milligrams than Canelo.

[Silence]

Both are bums. Valdez is Canelo's bum. So, I will root for him.
