Comments Thread For: Shane Mosley Convinced Devin Haney Does Not Want To Fight Shakur Stevenson

[Oregonian]

Agreed. Shakur is good but he should realize that he has to crawl before he walks. If he took the 25% offer then beaten up Haney then he would be in the drivers seat. Shakur overpriced himself.

“He has to Crawl before he walks”? Really? Shakur is about as big a name as Haney is in the boxing world.
Haney is not Kamboso who could afford to pay him whatever he got. Haney is not Floyd who can also afford to pay out whatever he wants.

Haney is no different from Teo. He go a shot at an undisputed and won AND just like Teo, when he steps it up to face Shakur, he will get beat hence the obvious ducking.

Haney vs Shakur will be big business. Haney vs anyone else will not so Shakur will s not crawling anywhere.

These young athletes let their egos get in the way, they don't realize that they have to pay their dues, before they make the big money. The only exceptions are the ones who are social media savvy who for some reason interest the public.

He can't afford to pass on opportunities like this, win, lose, or draw! Errol knows that!

I disagree with you on that. Mauricio is in Al's pocket. Al can pull lots of strings for Frank Martin, protect him for years like he did with Errol. How long has Jermall sat on the WBC 160 belt, going on 26 months?

Shakur Stevenson and Devin Haney simply don't like each other. They've gone from respectfully calling each other out, to hurling curse-filled tirades at one another every chance they get.

You need to stop! Errol fought way better competition than Crawford did at 147! Crawford knows why the fight didn't happen, in fact it's part of his lawsuit against Bob Arum!

Bob blocked the Pacquiao fight, not the Spence fight. The Spence fight didn't happen because Al didn't want it to. Bud left TR in November 2021. Al and Errol didn't stop goose-stepping until April 2023. That's 16 months Bob wasn't in the picture. Find another convenient lie.

Haney is the undisputed unified champ at 135, Stevenson is the B side but didn't want 25%. That's his prerogative but stfu with this Haney don't wanna fight me bullschit.

Agreed. True statement.

Haney is champ, I'da thought 25/75 was fair? I agree with those saying Haney ain't ducking by offering 25%. I'ma bit surprised at Shakur's attitude, like he thinks he's far more of a star than he is. I would also much rather see Haney v Tank IF Haney can safely stay at 135. Obviously, if he can't then much better for all concerned that he fights Prograis. I don't see Tank giving Shakur more than 25% anyhow, SMH.

Bob literally said that Spence vs. Crawford would NOT sell enough to give the fighters what they want! The issue is part of the lawsuit, that Arum sabotaged Spence vs. Crawford! Yet, the fight did happen! Was it on ESPN? Will the rematch be on ESPN? Spence, Charlo, Canelo, all the BIG fights Bud desire, are they going to be on ESPN? You need to STOP! Watch Shakur follow his mentor, and get that bag!
