Comments Thread For: Shakur Stevenson says William Zepeda 'would bring the best out of me'

Chico was one of my all time favourites
But the beating Pretty Boy laid on him was something else
I seen Floyd fight live and if I tell you it was damn hard to count his punches thrown in combo is to say the least

Imagine trying to deal with punches coming at you that fast. Not many people have fast enough reflexes.

Interesting hypothesis , but to the best of my recollection, Oscar was with a couple of **********s , drunk and out of his mind on coke when the hookers talked him into the fishnets episode. They had a plan, and DLH fell right into it . They took the photos as a blackmail attempt .
All that to say that it is pretty clear that Oscar has no restraint and acts with no wisdom whatsoever in fishnets. Then again , maybe it was the booze and drugs, and the fishnets kept him from doing anything even crazier. So you could be right.

That’s an interesting point

That is where I earned respect for Floyd
That was also the night he ****** out another favourite of mine ; Arturo

Read my previous post
What’s your take

I understand the conventional wisdom about fights and price. Not to complicate but: I do not think think Shakur is thinking properly about this offer given to him by Arum. However I do think, if someone can lace him up, there are great reasons NOT to take the offer.

Shakur is just thinking one dimensionally. But the reality is, 3 million a fight, once everyone gets their piece is probably more like one million. Beyond that, if Shakur took the time to really work on himself as a presence, like Ryan does, there is potential for him to self promote and do a better job. The question being... can he do the work?

I again refer to the Paul Brothers... I think they are both scm bags, and not too bright, but, theyare capable of self promotion and we see their success.

Floyd below 130 was incredible. I saw a reply of him, I forget the fight... You can see him anticipate the punch, actually smiling as he sidesteps it casually, and delivers... THIS WAS IN SLO MO!! It showed how much command he had on his abilities and setting the opponent up.

Can’t take anything away from him as far as boxing especially in those early days

So you think Shaukar has the illa killa in him? While I am not sure, I do think you are correct that he needs an opponent that will trigger those aspects of his game, if they are there. Some guys fight to the level of the competition... Always been that way. Fury is like that.

I think he has.

[MulaKO]

I think he has.

When the fugh is it gonna come a rollin’ out lol

Now you know full well that the whole world saw it in the parking garage that one time!!

All proven truths aside, imho he's the type of boxer who needs to feel like he's in danger before he unleashes true violence & when he does it'll still be executed at the highest level of skill (I'd better chill, the glazing is reaching Krispy Kreme levels lol).
