Comments Thread For: Stevenson: I Just Heard Crickets From Valdez's Fans; It Felt Good Shutting Them Up

[Tinman]

Canelo built his CAREER offering the heavier man on fight night.....but i guess you forgot to offer that up as an example

I like the Broner analogy better. Broner moved up and failed. Canelo has been successful.

That’s because Canelo moved up because he got bigger as he got older. Expected.

Broner went up because all the partying with strippers, hookers, drugs and liquor in between fights caused him to gain too much weight.

Had he been more disciplined and professional he would’ve been below 140 longer and had a more productive career.

Now we know why he's been running from him since 126! I think Bob should bring Navarette to MSG for Shakur! I think that's better than Ogawa or Gutierrez! What say you?

Stevenson should move up to 135 and start taking names.

If arum needs convinced of Stevenson's appeal, and I understand where he's coming from on that, he needs to put him on nearer his home base.

Alternatively, if Stevenson believes he's an attraction, then arum could oferf Stevenson ppv with purse based on sales and let's see if he takes it!

You got called out because the post oozed with your hatred for black boxers.

Lmfao. Spence and Crawford is the most discussed fight in the sport. The winner will be elevated. I can tell that bothers you.

Yea, Conceicao did beat Valdez. Which is why Arum finally had to make the fight and not go through with the plan to have him fight Navarette before Shakur because navarette would murk that ped using pendejo and ruin a payday for Bob.

Jmw charlo just had a FOTY with Castano ( I had castano winning) and MW charlo is just biding his time until Canelo gets through with fleecin GB a Hearn for $80 mil.

You don’t have to give props. But calling the performance unimpressive solely because you’re an anti black bigot was pathetic.

Let your hatred of black people go dude. It’s played out.

If that fight even happens. Black fighters have a tendency to wait out other fighters. Fact

Foty? It was a good fight but that's exaggerating

Give props for what? For doing something that was expected? He was a heavy favorite and did the same thing the guy before him did. Difference is concencio didn't get the decision. Why isn't concencio getting the Stevenson treatment for doing literally the same thing he did?

How will Stevenson's comments go over with the Mexicans? Maybe they won't go to his fights--too bad for him. But WTF--he is such an insufferable jerk anyway.

No they don’t. That’s just the excuse used when they win from guys like you.

Foty candidate for sure. Either way the rematch is set.

If you want to criticize MW Charlo, fair. To criticize JMW Charlo after he’s fought, in succession, Lubin, Trout, Harrison, Cora ( low level comeback fight ), Harrison, Rosario, Castano illustrates your irrational hatred for black boxers and your tendency to judge them all with a broad brush when it isn’t warranted.

The fact he was as heavy favorite over an undefeated 2 division champion is indicative of how good he is- you know like how you talked about Loma being the heavy favorite over Teo, who was much less accomplished.

Conceiaco wasn’t as dominating as Shakur was even though imo he won.
That has nothing to do with evaluating Shakur’s performance in the fight.

To post his performance was unimpressive is ridiculous and oozed of the same thing you claim my post did.

[Jab jab boom]

Stevenson is going to sabotage his career before he ever reaches the “PPV star” stage he fantasizes about. He hasn’t figured out there’s a way to be arrogant without also being unlikeable - Spence has mastered it, for example. But I get a feeling Stevenson will never figure that out, and it’s going to put a ceiling on his marketability.

if Spence mastered it, why isn’t he a Ppv star yet?

[dukesville]

It looks like Arum still sees Valdez as a bigger money maker than Stevenson. And Arum is no fool...what an irony.

[Slip jab]

Arum will start holding Shakur back. If he gets too big arum resort to what he always done by attempting to hurt their marketability before and because he'll jump TR ship

[SteveM]

This is the sort of thing TC had a problem with. Pointlessly talking down your own fighter's popularity. You're his promoter, talk up how popular he is. You don't build a star by telling everybody they're not that popular.

You beat me to it! WTF is Arum doing? - there is only one way to take that as Stevenson - basically your promoter hasn't got your back.
