Comments Thread For: Shakur Stevenson on Emanuel Navarrete: Let's Make a Big Fight - USA vs. Mexico

He thinks this fight will get him more fans but the opposite will happen. Navarrette is an exciting high volume puncher and will come to fight but Shakur will fight in his usual style and won't get in a shootout whatsoever. He will bore the Mexican fans to death and win by easy UD. Unless he plans on going toe to toe it's just another boring UD win for him and people talking sh** after the fight.

It isn't any fun taking on fighters who were once considered great but are now clearly past their best. It's a normal trend in boxing. When a fighter is looking to make a name for himself, he'll face a faded contender or former world champion who's seen better days.

It's weird to see a fighter trying to fight a no risk fighter cause he CANT get fights with Tank & Loma cause they’re both SCARED of him.

Santos threw twice as many punches, he tried to fight much more. Stop this bs narrative. Santos has a 90% ratio he comes to fight always. Shakur was the cause of this being a stinker and nobody else.

Ig I don't equate missing punches as doing all that much in a professional boxing match. Landed punches are doing something. Missed punches means the other guy is doing something to make you miss.

Shakur has been boring before, we all know how he fights, including EDLS. Shakur fought closer to how he usually fights than EDLS did. EDLS needed to switch gears to win the fight & he didnt do that.

The goal is to win & look good 2nd. Shakur won & EDLS didn't win or look good.

Did folks not see Stevenson VS Herring and Valdez? Stevenson fought those fights differently - especially since they didn't pose the same threat as Los Santos did. Stevenson and Navarette are the same in size. Stevenson may also be stronger. This fight will be entertaining.

You equate it with trying to fight more than the opponent which is the point I was making to those who say Santos didn't do much more, which is factually wrong. He threw many more punches and tried to make the fight more. The fact he couldn't land much is because his opponent jumped back 3 feet every time he threw a punch. Sort of hard to land vs such an unprecedented level of cowardly behavior.

You call it cowardly, I call it hitting & not getting hit.

Like I said it was a trash fight no one should wanna see again tho, but Shakur won looking bad & EDLS lost looking bad. I'll take winning & looking bad all day every day over losing AND looking bad.

Shakur landed 60 punches, that is not hitting, that is cowardness as a fact. The only reason some people think he won that fight is because he is the A side, he did nothing but land a few jabs a round and run. Santos threw twice as many punches which proves he at least tried to make a fight of it while Shakur fan from the fight. You probably believe Shakurs injury excuse don't you?

He fought a smaller guy. He was always bigger than Rigo.

If you believe TR PR about him taking the fight for that reason, you’re a gullible idiot.

Stop making excuses.

That's because many people were talking about it back then when Loma was at FW. But when he kept winning, people like you still called for the Rigo fight and said he'd be beaten by him. You called him a duck if he didn't take it. I remember you being part of that group. Lie all you want.

You can listen to his interview in the fight before Rigo and hear what he says about it. Then listen to his interview after the Rigo fight. He couldn't have made it any clearer. You just want something to slander him with. Just like you did when you said he was ducking Teo only to switch to Haney when the Teo fight looked to be getting made. Again, this i remember very well with you.

[Sid-Knee]

Where you been? Seems like ever since sunny got his ass beat by bam like I told you he would, you’ve been mia. For the record, before nava and shakur fought I had already stated I would want them to face each other if both won. Stop making sh.it up. I could care less for a shakur fight but if Navarrete faces him then I’ll tune in because of navarrette.

Look at you talking about another fight because i pulled you up about trying to shut the fight down to protect Navarrete. Haha. Yeah, i hurt your feelings there.

Stop making shlt up? You're literally on this thread being a hypocrite because Shakur is calling Navarrete out. If it was a Mexican doing it, you call them a coward and a ducker. But you have zero confidence in Navarrete winning that fight. And you're right. He doesn't have a chance. He was clearly beaten by Conceicao just like Valdez was only for him to get f3cked over in both fights. Against Shakur, he'll lose every round and Arum won't protect Navarrete because Shakur is with him too.

[Sid-Knee]

I score fights. Shakur didn't impress, but he didn't lose. He won on points in a stinker.

I'd love you to give me the rounds Stevenson won? I must have missed them.
