    Shakur should win based on his skill set. I think Oscars hands and feet are too slow, and his reach is too short. Shakur has the skills to win this fight without taking a step forward all night. Not particularly my cup of tea but I respect it

      I like Valdez he can pop and has tons of heart , But Shakur is a style nightmare for him he also looked phenomenal against Herring .My gut tells me he comes into this fight motivated and gets a win via TKO..

        Stevenson should win. It is not a tough fight to evaluate. Valdez is sharp enough and skilled enough if Stevenson is listening to his own press, he can pull the upset. But so long as Stevenson comes in with a chip on his shoulder and fire in his belly, he simply has more ways to win than Valdez has to beat him.

        Stevenson by UD. I will give Valdez the full fight on his feet.

          That's debatable. Shakur is a turd. I see posts on every social media outlet about this fight. No one wants to watch him because he's a turd. Not because he's (insert race here).

              Valdez is my pick. I have to go with the more proven fighter, and Valdez has the by far better resume.

              Valdez has been in some wars but no signs of them taking their toll yet. Stevenson might be a style nightmare, but Valdez with the combination of skills, power and heart has what it takes to beat Stevenson.

              it will be a great fight.

                    Lol i don’t know any other way to say it. I don’t like that spoiler style but I respect the skill set it takes to pull that off.

                      Right now Stevenson is -600 and Valdez is +370 ML. Stevenson by is Dec. is likely but i might sprinkle some $$ on Valdez.
