Comments Thread For: Nobody Can Touch Shakur Stevenson At 135 Or 140, Including Tank, Says Malignaggi

Tank likely loses to Shakur. But he destroys Haney and everyone else in the similar weight range. Except maybe Teo. I’m unsure on that one. Might be my favorite “What if” fight….. Tank vs Teo

Haney is too big for him. Tank is too patient, he gives away rounds. That will cost him against elite boxers.

As long as he keeps fighting like he fought De Los Santos, yeah I doubt anyone catches him. Basically not engaging, barely throwing any punches, he will be hard to touch.

i just love this LW division, its just endless permutations on who might beat who, who deserves what bag, whos ducking who, this is boxing

I most certainly agree with you, except for the “too big for him” part. Tank will probably lose almost every round against Haney. Until the fight’s stopped and Haney’s dad is bringing smelling salts in the ring for his son. Haha.

nah but I see it going kinda like Tank vs LSC or Tank vs Rolly. Where he sacrifices the rounds to set the traps he does, and land the right punch.

You reckon it will be well enough marinated by then ?

Enough of the mythical matchups. Let's see these dudes all fight each other. I'm hoping for Shakur against Zepeda in Jersey. If the undercard is decent, I may just attend.

Haha. I don’t see it happening soon either! Just my thoughts on “if it did”. But I will add that I’ve mentioned on this site before that I do believe the Haney fight is the big one Tank will take (when?! Hell if I know!). I just don’t see him fighting Shakur, or Teo, or Loma or Matias or any of those guys. When the careers are forced to take a big name, it’s just my opinion Tank will look to fight Haney. Even if they are in their 50s when it takes place

Soooo tired of Shakur hype!!! Having immense talent doesn’t always translate into success. In Boxing it’s definitely the case. He’s clearly missing some other things. Before we start this discussion, what’s different now since he fought De Los Santos? His one that was perceived a real threat, what did do with that golden opportunity? What happened when Haney put an offer on the table? These are the other things. Once I see the answers, then I’ll give him his flowers

If he fights tank as tentative as he did DLS, he will lose that decision.
