I do not see a Stevenson/Haney match as being boring at all. Stevenson will bring the fight into the pocket at times and some solid exchanges will take place. A high-pitched chess match that most true boxing fans would appreciate.Comment

There are a variey of stories about the Spence session. Listen to Jones talk about Floyd not being rattled. When you're as good as Floyd and someone gives you good work and lands a few shots, you might as well have lost.

Spence saying Floyd wasn't rattled.
Nate saying Foyd was never buckled, but it was Spence that got buckled.

Call Nate a shill, it's the only move for you to make. But if you watch his channel, he's clearly honest on all topics.
Erik Morales is probably one of the best to ever do it at his weight, once in a lifetime talent. Spence is nowhere near Morales level. Also, Erik and Floyd were the same age and turned pro within 4 years of each other.
Additionally lmao, at that time Morales was a 122lb champion and Mayweather was 130lb champ (~98') when they were both training up at Big Bear. At that time in their careers, a very strong argument can be made that Morales was the better fighter. Castillo (4 years later) gave Floyd hell, you think Castillo is better than Morales lol???
Morales was peaking and Floyd was still wet behind the ears, Morales had 4 years on him in the pro's.
TL;DR

In the conversation about Spence, this was a 37 year-old Mayweather. I don't care who you are, in boxing...when you're 37, you're nowhere near your best.

Whatever you guys say, I'm telling you now, that's not an easy fight for Shakur. It seems as if everyone here has been duped by Top Rank's smoke and mirrors routine. Shakur fought a guy who most only heard about months ago. That's right, not even a year ago this guy pops up on our radar. Then, somehow, mysteriously, he moves up the WBC rankings to a top five position, fighting only Japan. How does that work?
I'll tell you how that work:

So everyone needs to chill out about Shakur walking through everyone at 135. The guy fought a Japanese domestic fighter who has no jab and lunges in. You think Shakur has power, but I'm telling you that he still doesn't have power. If that were Teofimo Lopez, that fight would have been stopped in round two, just like Richard Commey was stopped in round two. If I'm constantly lunging in, I'm doubling the power of Shakur's punches. When Yoshino kept lunging in, he was doubling the power of Shakur's punches, and despite that, Yoshino was fine. He was steady on his legs and ready to get it on. Premature stoppage.
So everyone needs to chill out. I think Haney gives Shakur a run for his money, to be perfectly honest.Comment

You're confusing speed and accuracy with power. It's not the same thing. Please, go show me where any of these guys had jelly legs that Shakur stopped. I'll wait!Comment
