Comments Thread For: Yoshino Disagrees With Stoppage, Downplays Shakur's Power: "I Didn't Feel The Power That Much"

[Corelone]

Shakur was never a monster puncher, he has speed and skill. The girl in the car park fought back, so maybe Yoshino has a point.

[War Room]

He took a knee.

Reiterating, he was knocked down twice.

Reiterating, he was knocked down twice.

I know, I didn't watch the fight.

Which makes me an online expert.

He took a knee.

ALM is now a thing in boxing?

He took a knee.

That was before the fight.

Does the ref still count if you do it during the fight?

Bad stoppage, but the result is still the same, Yoshino got totally destroyed "in the pocket," which is even more impressive! It wasn't Mayweather vs. Gatti, but it was still a beautiful thing to watch!

Stevenson boxed Yoshino silly, that's why he's making silly statement's right now. He doesn't agree with the stoppage, and didn't feel Stevenson's power.
Then what was he doing on the canvas twice, looking for contact lenses or something else? His dishonesty just mean's that he was totally embarrassed by Stevenson.
If the referee hadn't stopped it when he did (I agree it was an early stoppage), he was going to have to stop it within the next round or two.
Stevenson was just starting to really zero in on Yoshino, and was actually having fun out boxing, and punching Yoshino senseless.
That's why Yoshino is not making any sense now, about what occurred to him when he met up with the boxing phenom Shakur Stevenson.

This guy needs to really watch the fight and focus on learning from his mistakes. The fight won't pause for him to pivot or move laterally. Move left or right quickly and he becomes easy to catch.

More on topic, different ways to generate power, Stevenson had enough to hold the center and keep him honest. Makes me wonder about the type of gloves used/preferred..

When you get hurt that much, it's hard to feel punching power. It's a lot you can't recall. But you kinda say things like, "Is the fight over", "Did I get knocked down", "How many times", "Did I get knocked out"? Lol.
