Comments Thread For: Shakur Stevenson vs. Artem Harutyunyan: Big-fight preview

[BoxingUpdates]

If ever there was a time to deliver a statement performance for Shakur Stevenson, now is as good as any. The hot lightweight commodity could be going into free agency as a bright, in-form star, or someone who aesthetically flatters to deceive - while still being wholly brilliant - depending on what happens in front of around 10,000 of his hometown fans at Newark's Prudential Center against Artem Harutyunyan.

Artem Harutyunyan was supposed to be a cherrypick fight for Frank Martin. Stablemates Edwin De Los Santos and Isaac Cruz were available, but Frank's team had to scour the globe and secure this Armenian fighter who hasn't fought in more than a year. Turned out to be competitive and according to him and Frank believed Artem won that fight.

These new Boxingscene writers Suck.

In no way is this a " Big Fight ".

I'ma be watching the GBP card instead.

I'm not watching any Stevenson fights Live.

Good thing proffesional boxing is his profession then. His looks shouldn't impact his reputation as a fighter.

but yeah the guy is pretty ugly in this picture.

i hope his face looks a lot worst then what it starts out to be before the fight, would like to see him face some adversity inside the ring, some cuts some harsh body shots that take it outta him.................but this fight i do not think so. That is why we watch ...............

Might be tougher fight than some might expect as Artem has a good chin and is committed to working the body, but feel like Stevenson has this in the bag.

I hope Shakur does something special tonight. Special, as in keep me awake for more than 3 rounds.
