    I think Robson has definitely improved since the Corona fight, I think he looked good vs Valdez too. Arguably could have got that decision, however Stevenson is definitely a level above. Not a fan of the kid personality wise, but he’s a special talent no doubt.

    Stevenson is incredibly accurate, especially with the left hand. Not a massive puncher but if someone can consistently land clean shots eventually they’ll start to wear you down. That’s likely what Herring experienced. I think Shakur is still getting better too which is a scary thought.
    Personality wise it is true he is quite unlikeable and arrogant, it be enjoyable if he tasted some humble pie but I don't think there is anyone at 130 that poses a challenge to him, Robson should had gotten the decision against Valdez.

    But if you watch both his latest fights you can see he rarely uses a high guard or head movement.

    He gets caught but he makes up for it by using his athleticism and big size but that doesn't seem to be the case for Shakur who looked like light welterweight in his last fight.

    He might prove me wrong in Friday though.

      But but Bivol was cherrypick.

      Quality of opposition is also significant btw.

        I'd go with Bob Arum

          You make valid points. I expect him to get stung with that straight left pretty often. He’s one of those former top level amateurs who boxes like they’re still wearing a head guard. Joe Joyce is the same.

            loma is getting up their in age.

            usyk could be in consideration considering his movement and defense at heavy and he used it to overcome a 20 pound weight disadvantage.

            Andrande is in his mid 30s now and fought nobody but bums.

            stevenson and haney resume is weak but they still have time to do something they are young enough. I think tank would beat both of them though. Tank might not be as slick but he is patient and has power.

            bivol is legit and could beat beterbiev to be the man at 175.

            fury could be on the list when you consider his slickness for a 270 pound man
