Shakur just went the distance with a 12-1 fighter who lost a decision to Frank Martin. That's not how you elevate your stock. He is in no position to demand anything.

Originally posted by super-x View PostThis was the same issue Crawford had, he was getting overpaid for fighting b & c grade opposition under top rank, when he finally left he was extremely difficult to negotiate with as he believed he was worth more then he was. Fair play to shaqur for leaving that kinda guaranteed money to chase the big fights, but i strongly doubt he will be making that kinda money unless hes getting in with, tank, loma, haney.
Any of Haney vs Tank vs Shakur will not sell.

Teo is a c o c k y, loud mouth but I have to agree with him, good riddance to the scaredy cat Shakur indeed.
All current boxers need to avoid this dude like the plague (let Shakira's fangirls cry ducking, who cares, the clown doesn't fight anyway) and hopefully the industry black balls him like they did Rigondeaux.

Teofimo throwing stones while living in a glass house. He didn't stop his overmatched opponent either (Claggett), and he wasn't always happy with his purses either. Remember when he allowed the Kambosos match-up to go to purse bid because he didn't like the amount of money that TR offered? Also, wasn't it Teofimo that said TR/ESPN was showing favoritism towards Black fighters? Meanwhile you have Shakur complaining about TR being racist because he doesn't like their offer. Some of these boxers are entitled drama queens.NoAgendaBoxing likes this.

Both fighters (Teo and Shakur) are sleepers. I can tolerate Teo a little more though. Shakur is a defensive minded fighter with pillow fists. Shakur doesn't generate money. There is no flair to him or his brand. He would've been smart to take the 15 million for 5 fight contract with Top Rank. He can live like a millionaire and fight below average fighters. This is why Shakur can't get the big names to fight him. He is the most boring fighter on earth. Teo should keep his mouth shut and just keep fighting. He isn't more talented than Shakur.CPNUTKnockoutFreshMart likes this.

I'm going to say Teo tried harder to hurt Claggett and that Claggett is a tougher fight. Teo still unimpressive but Shakur fought far more defensively and his offense was just tepid. And you could see Teo's power affected Claggett, he rocked him several times, the dude is just very tough.
Shakur barely pressed and the once or twice it looked like Hartunyan was softening up, Shakur refused to commit.
In the battle of the overrated, at this point Shakur is losing IMO. Teo hasn't looked great and has flaws, but he at least has an offense each round.

Teo is wack. He's rather get rid of a guy by him leaving his promotional company, than by beating him in the ring. Old salty ass jealous haterCPNUTKnockoutFreshMart

Shakur vs Loma would barely scratch 100k.
Tank vs Haney does at least 400k.
Acting as if Loma is some ‘big draw’ lol.
