Comments Thread For: Shakur Stevenson Acknowledges That Navarette Clash Would Be Big: "It Could Be Next"

[messi807]

The same fans that were crying about Charlo being too small for Canelo , when really Charlo Is bigger than Canelo.

Are the same fans saying anything bad about Navarrete jumping 5 POUNDS to face Shakur, that really Is a natural 140 or 147 POUNDS fighter.

Navarrete in 4 fights, go up 2 divisions Is not good for him.

Its a lot of risk because in this case, Shakur Is a natural welterweight draining himself in 135.

Nonsense. Navarette missed weight on the first attempt at 130 against Valdez. Even Top Rank said he was huge. It’s a struggle for him to even make 130.
First fight at 135 Shakur tried to fight Tank, Haney, Loma & Ortiz - so no excuses. Liam Wilson even said he was a weight bully when he fought him..
5’8 that big and at 130? He’ll finish at 140.
Shakur isn’t huge for 135, he makes weight comfortably.. unlike other fighters at 135

It's a good fight and a good pay day for Navarette. There are no names at 130 or any interesting fights. Plus everyone else is ducking Shakur. It's good business for Top Rank, you get the Mexican, Puerto Rican, and black fans.

You can be Puerto Rican/Mexican and be black doofus. Jesus Christ, the ignorance of some Americans.

Why is Shakur Stevenson listed as 5 feet 8 inches in height on Wikipedia?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakur_Stevenson

Do you believe he's the same height as Terence Crawford?

Nahh.. he’s an inch shorter

The only undeniable advantage Stevenson has is his weight. He is a prodigious dehydrator, bulking up wildly the following day and seemingly outweighing his opponents by a big margin. And here we are again talking about fighting a much smaller guy than him. If Navarrete had the size, hands down he beats the cr@p out of Stevenson, no doubt about it.

Navarette missed weight in his first attempt at 130. Dude is a weight bully.. please stop your excuses. Even his former opponents have called him weight bullies lmao. The guy that was about to stop him - Liam Wilson said he was a weight bully and even rigged the scales. Time to man up & go to 135 where you have ZERO weight advantage.
Shakur is fighting guys his size and bigger at 135.

Jesus Christ. Shakur started at 122. Doesn’t matter what he got to, he was a weight bully at 126 (Navarette) and just missed weight on first attempt at 130 against Valdez, where he was huge.
Sure… he’s too small for 135 LOL.
Shakur Stevenson ass whooping incoming..

navarrette started at like 112, won his first title at 122

Shakur started at at 127 wth are you talking about. go check boxrec you moron.

Navarette is just fat rn, going from 122-130 in three year is discipline

And yeah sure I agree Shakur would body this guy, he's too big and skilled.

Bro again just cause you missed weight doesnt mean he's meant for that weight, dude started at 112! he was at 122 3 years ago

Dude lacks discipline, that doesnt mean he should be at 135

You can be Puerto Rican/Mexican and be black doofus. Jesus Christ, the ignorance of some Americans.

You can be a get a sensitive little ***** like yourself, who gets his culo hurt easily.

[boxingitis]

He dropped or stopped his last 4 opponents.. as I said lol, that power is coming through. Navarette will struggle against Conceicao anyway

He will show Shakur once again. He will show how to actually hurt his opponents. Not the shelf and wait to counter. Don't worry Shakur has handful himself. He will fight someone who bigger, longer, and stronger, who is fast himself.

My bad.. I meant 126. That doesn’t excuse the point though. LOL 8lbs in 3 years is nothing… sorry. Especially for a guy with a frame like Navarette.

Nah it’s not just fat, how can you be fat several weeks into camp on fight night LOL. Nobody moves up and then misses weight 1st attempt in a new weight class, he doesn’t belong at 130 simple - the same with Joet, he’s HUGE too.

Bro please just stop. Supposedly he missed weight twice at 130, which is a conspiracy that the scales were tampered with in the Wilson fight and it doesn’t seem so far fetched. He’s not a 130 pounder, sorry dude - he has a huge frame and was known as a weight bully at 126. His body can’t take the weight and he’ll be at 135 soon.

Name me a fighter at 126/130 that Navarette fought that wasn’t bigger than him? I’d like to hear, since you think he’s so small.
