    We live in an age of entertainment where everybody has the attention span of a gold fish and is constantly scrolling through their phone 24/7. Unfortunately a safety first approach does not work with the public who want to be excited and entertained all the time. So Shakur is labelled as boring, which he is without a doubt. It is not a bum rap, it is the truth.

      Shakur should do himself a favor, and stay off Social Media!

          If Shakur's Last Fight was "Boring" it was Because Artem Flat-Out REFUSED To Open Up After the 3rd or 4th Round, Choosing to Survive Instead...

            Don’t try to force it and tell the fans what they should like or not like.

            It’s the art of HIT and not get hit. Stevenson seems to forget the HIT part too often.

              Dude should go into politics, because that's straight up propaganda he's spewing for the kid. Says the fans aren't wrong about Shakur...then says the fans (like us on here, the core of whom have been watching boxing since the late 90's at the very LEAST)...FORGOT that boxing is hit without being hit. Compares him to Whitaker, while claiming Sweat Pea would get booed in this era (based on nothing), then immediately says he's NOT comparing Stevenson to him. To boil it down, according to this clown, it's not Shakur's fault for consistently being boring...it's the FANS fault for thinking he's boring.

                At the end of the day there's two fighters that will push Stevenson into a war and that's Tank Davis and William Zepeda. That's a lot of heat in the kitchen. Either combination should be next
