    Bob is right and at the same time anyone that thinks Stevenson would duck the other two champs is a fool

      Yeah.... after watching DLH torpedo Mungia-Charlo, the last thing anyone wants to do is waste time trying to negotiate an inter-platform unification. Not happening.

        There is nothing at 130. I don't care about who promotes who, I care about the fights and the fights are at 135. If Shakur feels he needs more time that's one thing but let's not pretend there are fights for him at 130 that any of us want to see.

          Yes, that's a very likely scenario but it's what Bob wants! He already has Haney vs Kambosos! Perhaps he would like to make a lightweight tournament amongst his stable of fighters.

Keeps his name out there and then he could call out the unification fights and Arum at the same time under the bright lights. It sucks but seems to be his best option
            You’ve only been here since 2021. Trust me, in the future that is exactly what you’ll see from his irrational haters, especially if Shakur goes on to be a star.

            Just look at Canelo- he gets criticized for ducking black fighters, fellow Mexicans and others by his haters

              I can't tell if Gutierrez is signed or not.
              Thanks, I didn’t know this. That is why Bob said it regarding Ogawa. Now the in-house defense against Conceicao is more understandable.

              Thanks Paulf.

                I figured as much from Arum. He knows Gutierrez can punch and is a much tougher match up than Valdez

                      If the fights were actually makeable, I wouldn't mind the unifications if they could be made quickly. Like one this summer, the other by the end of the year. That would give haney/kambosos time to sort things out and maybe loma to get back in the gym if it he makes it out alive. In the short term there isn't anything at 135. The three i mentioned are tied up for awhile, oscar isn't putting garcia in with him, and tank has never shown an ounce of interest in making fights that aren't mismatches.
