Comments Thread For: Oscar De La Hoya meets with Shakur Stevenson, says any agreement 'starts with him'

PBC can't really guarantee Shakur anything at 135 because they don't have dates, and guys like Davis/Cruz will make excuses as to why they don't need Shakur.

That list is a lot longer than Davis and Cruz, which is why Shakur is a Free Agent today!!!

A fighter can only fight those who agree to face them. So if fighters and their teams are already on record already making excuses to avoid you, then scratch them off the list. Shakur is an asset to any stable. If he wasn't, TR wouldn't have bothered offering him an extension. However, he also needs to be realistic about his marquee value and make concessions when necessary. Shakur needs to mature.

Oscar, Shakur is a box office bust. What are you doing?

Yup, Shakur is a very bad investment. Let the P Diddy Committee have him.

I agree Shakur needs to mature, and those in his division need to MAN UP, or SHUT UP!!!

Love him or hate him, Oscar is the golden ticket to Superstardom for any boxer that signs with him.
