Comments Thread For: Hearn: Stevenson's In A Tough Spot; May Become P4P No. 1, Not The Biggest Draw Around

[Smash]

as people have said, shakur had the standard 25% mando split for an undisputed fight he says he will win easy and people say he doesnt have opportunities LMAO, damn u had a contract for undisputed and turned it DOWN, DOH

lots of guys have taken the short end now to make it big later after they win the short end fight, its called backing yourself, hell haney himself just did that to get the belts!!!! lol

shakur with all the belts he calls the shots and the splits now, he should have been begging haney for that fight as i was sure haney would move up and duck him but he didnt, he took on the challenge again

[Smash]

Arum just doesn't love Shakur the way he loves Loma. Loma sneezes and gets unearned opportunities. Stevenson has been doing everything the right way, but has nothing to show for it. Maybe he should consider leaving Bob.

U think so?

This is what arum said about loma when loma complained about the scores he got in the teo fight


Arum: Lomachenko’s comments are “******” “I have to see what Loma wants to do next year,” said Arum to IFL TV. “They’re as ****** as the comments [former WBC heavyweight champion Deontay] Wilder made about how he lost to Tyson Fury about how somehow Fury loaded his gloves, and his own corner put stuff in his water.

they had a big falling out over this issue


“It’s ridiculous…With Lomachenko, [judge] Julie Lederman is a very honest person, she was off in that fight [with Teofimo Lopez], only giving Lomachenko one round. (LOL)


“So I think those comments [from Lomachenko] were completely out of line for Lomachenko. When I talk to him, I’ll tell him that,” Arum said.

It seems like Team Stevenson has chosen to marinate the Haney fight. He's busy calling out Loma, so people can compare his performance with Haney's and Teofimo's. However, he sacrificed the chance to fight for Undisputed.

Devin Haney took the short end of the money and had to sign with Top Rank and had to agree to two fights in Australia in order to get a shot at Kambosos.

Shakur Stevenson should have likewise accepted the 25% purse split and been willing to bet on himself in order to get a shot at Haney’s 4 belts.

[KillaMane26]

I think he will start selling when he gets up to 147 and start collecting names on his resume.

Since Haney is so hated right now fighting him would definitely help him.

And onvythe Tank fight but I don't see that happening no time soon

And Shakur fights bum and bum and doesn’t KO them. He put himself in a bad spot by not taking the Haney 25% offer. He’s with Arum which is not a good thing and fighting an aging Loma doesn’t move the needle regardless of what Haney did against Loma. Now if and when a Tank fight is discussed they are going offer him 25% or less and it won’t discussion won’t happen after he fights De Los Santos. I would have more feasible after a Haney fight..

Is Devin taking 25% to fight for Regis WBC Belt? Shakur is getting pay well. Not desperate for Haney's cookie crums offer.
