Originally posted by SplitSecond View PostWhat? Tiptapping gloves and jumping back whenever a guy wants to fight is not entertaining. What makes Stevenson especially boring, is the fact he’s no sharpshooter. There were a few instances, but for the most part he was not making Valdez miss and pay. It was just hit gloves, step away, cuffing hook pivot repeat. Guy needs to learn how to put punishment on guys.
valdez face looks like he went through a meat grinder. If shakur had no power Valdez would have walked through him, which he didn’t.
Don’t get me wrong, shakur fights like the amateurs still…he doesn’t understand the pro ranks are about entertainment and excitement and the way he ran the last 10 seconds of the fight was shameful…BUT he’s got tremendous skills, he’s HUGE for his weight class and he beats most guys there.
But yes he runs a lot and is boring asf.

There's absolutely no doubt the criticism of his boring style has struck a truthful nerve with Stevenson. I've never heard a guy talk more about his "pleasing style" after a dominant-but-boring win since Mayweather.
Crowd-pleasing fighters are finishers, Shakur. You are NOT a finisher.

I got some mild entertainment watching referee Bayless squirm as he was forced to warn SS about 12 times about the outstretched arm - but knew never to do anything about it. He looked really uncomfortable trying to play that off
