Comments Thread For: Shakur Stevenson undergoes hand surgery; fight with Joe Cordina is off

[DClefthook]

Four more fighters who should be with PBC are Teo, Ryan, Virgil and Zander Zayas. American boxing is still 95% made up of Black, Mexican and Puerto Rican fighters.

For those fans of American boxing if you can't see the destruction this guy Hearn / MR has done to boxing in this country then there is no help for you. Twitterson had two options to resign: PBC and TR. PBC was the logical one but TR would have given him shots at Loma, Muratella and Teo. Instead he signs with MR who already screwed up his first fight by trying to force a PPV down our throats and I'm sorry to say but it ain't gonna get any better because they don't have anyone over there for him to fight...except.....ANDY CRUZ!!!!!

Good post. I see what you’re saying about PBC but they just don’t put on enough shows - even with Prime - and it’s clear Turki is targeting them by putting on the cut-price PPV cards that will destroy PBC’s high-price PPV model. Stevenson should have just re-signed with Top Rank, which is willing to play ball with other promoters and also has guys like Loma and Teo.

This kid has had hand problems a few times now. That probably explains the lack of KOs and willingness to really lay a beat down on guys. Fear of injuring your hands or just simply having brittle hands is enough to deter you to not use them.

I look at guys like Paulie & Floyd. They were notorious for hand problems & the KOs were rare. Floyd rarely threw with bad intentions in his money may era where his hands were really bad. Shakurs probably heads down that same road

Four fighters that should be with PBC are Bud, Boots, Devin and Shakur. *BUD should be at 154 going for undisputed against Fundora, Tszyu, Jermell, Lubin, Jesus Ramos and Spence II. *BOOTS should be at 147 going for undisputed against Stan, Barrios and Brian. *DEVIN should be at 140 fighting Pitbull, Puello (Wbc) and Rayo (Wba) and maybe Teo if he's not under contract with TR anymore. *SHAKUR should be at 135 fighting Frank, De los Santos and unifying with The Tanksta. That is their only real option and the best one for AMERICAN fight fans!

lol PBC has had like 2 shows this year they are dead. get over it. their FREE on network tv didn't work. their "league" didn't work. their "timeshare buy" didn't work. they couldn't even pay ppl to put their product on TV. that is as bad as it can ever be. now their fighters are just rotting on the vine and you want to add more to it lol. goofy. plus pitbull just got exposed as the new Dogboe. lol. how old are you kid. you dig branding, not the sport of boxing

Did he break his hand tweeting, or hitting women?

I agree, I responded similarly to a different thread yesterday. Floyd was thinking about retiring early in life due to problems with his hands. I believe Floyd has said that it was the hiring of cut man and hand wrapping man Rafael Garcia that saved his boxing career.

At least Paulie actually fought, even with bad hands and always stood his ground.

Shakur take all the time to heal, in matter of fact give up boxing , nobody cares if you come back. The hardest punches you ever threw was when you hit the defense less guy from behind on the ground. Nobody will miss you.
