    With all due respect to Shakur’s talent and victory….. that was hands down the most boring fight I’ve ever seen in my life. Shakur will never be remembered 10, 20, 30 years from now with performances like this.

    I still don’t see anyone beating him whether any of us likes it or not​
    Depends what you mean by beating because let's be real Shakur didn't really "beat" De Los Santos either...actually it's hard for him to beat guys with that type of style. Will he be awarded bogus biased decisions for doing nothing guess that's the times were in with these garbage corrupt refs.

        Shakur said he felt unwell going into the fight. Rumor injured hand. Looked like he was mostly fighting one-handed so it's understandable why he was real cautious against a dangerous puncher with 90% KO and tricky defense. Combination of things made it unenthralling. If Edwin wasn't such a big puncher maybe Shakur takes more risks in his compromised condition, but he was more focused on defense than offense.

          You guys are getting it all wrong.

          People were leaving the venue due to sheer awesomeness of what they were seeing.

          Their brains just couldn't process such a great performance and were being overloaded, so they left to save themselves.

          That, or they were being late to their train.

            Shakur Stevenson was a bigger favourite than Tyson Fury versus Francis Ngannou. And Shakur clearly lost the fight. American boxing is ruined forever, Shakur should hang his head in shame for eternity. This made Fury-Ngannou look like Gatti-Ward.

                The same thing happened in the Floyd vs Carlos Baldomir fight.

                HBO's Jim Lapmpley stated ln the mic, that Tiger Woods and other People left the arena at around the 11th round because they realized that Baldomir was not going to KO Floyd like he had his past recent opponents.

                    I’m shocked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
