Comments Thread For: Shakur Stevenson On Facing Gervonta Davis: I Think It's The Biggest Fight In The World

[Oregonian]

I really wish Shakur would STFU!!! Yes he’s talented but he’s not draw at all. Even the networks know it. He’s fighting on ESPN opposite of an NFL game ( a very good NFL game) He doesn’t have the following, the drawing power nor the resume to be talking this much. He had the chance and he blew it. I predict he’ll have the same outcome as Bud, very talented, collect some belts but not really be a cash cow or as big as Mayweather, Canelo, PAC or Davis

So Shakur should not call out Tank because he is has no draw?
Do tell, what “chance” did he blow?

Also, who should Tank fight next? Is there a bigger more establisher name than Shakur at 135?

I guess you think Boots should also STFU because he is not a draw and has a checkered resume?

How can it be the biggest fight in the world when one isn't a PPV draw and the other is fighting on Thursday night cable tv?

Whether it's big or small is not the issue. It's whether it would happen at all. Let's just stop kidding ourselves and stop these fantasy BS.

just make the fight happen in 2024

I'd say the chance of it happening in 2034 is higher than in 2024...

The "chance" Shakur blew was the one against Haney to become undisputed (which I'm sure he would've won if only he had taken it and not complained about money) and call out other big names as the undisputed lightweight champ, instead of as a currently still beltless (until tomorrow) lightweight former super feather champion. As the undisputed, he could've called out Tank and gotten much more traction among the fanboys than "some no name dude is calling Tank out haha." Imagine if Shakur was the undisputed champion, then maybe the fanboys would be "hey Tank, the undisputed champion is calling you out! Show him who'd the real boss" and will pressure Tank to reluctantly take the fight.

Now, the one at 135 that Tank SHOULD fight next is Shakur...but at this point we all know Tank ain't going to agree to fight Shakur until 2030 at the least.

This is arguably one of the best fights to be made but I’d rather see canelo vs Benavides that’s my number one fight to be made and also, tank isn’t the biggest star in the sport please stop it. Shakur in full blown promoter role I see. Good for him, but don’t lie to the people

Canelo vs David should’ve happened already. It will be hilarious if Andrade ruins a potential Cinco de Mayo showdown between them.lol

I don’t know about it being the biggest fight in the world, but this is a premier fight for real boxing fans.

If David beats Demetrius, I believe the canelo vs Benavidez won’t be in may anyway, rather in September. It’ll be munguia in may. I think

Floyd vs Manny or Clenelo???

Yeah sure
