Bro u lost all credibility when u started trying to say shakur is a bigger star than haney. Wtf are you on? How do u come up with that? Shakur Stevenson hasn’t even beaten ONE great fighter. He hasn’t even FOUGHT a great fighter. His last fight was against an electrician part time fighter. Haney has fought : loma, kambo 2x, ryan garcia, prograis, and next fight against Jose Ramirez. There not even a remote question that Haney is a much bigger name in the sport than shakur “nobody” Stevenson. He could’ve taken the fight taken the belts and then taken all the fights that Haney took for the money Haney makes but the baby lion king didn’t want to do it. Thats cold hard facts. Haney is fighting Ramirez a former and well respected champion next. Shakur fights bums like joet gonzalez and Josh padley. I don’t know why you’re so attached to hype jobs that refuse to fight. Bread man got you twisted bro. You beat the shakur and bootsy drums but they haven’t fought anyone! And any chances they had to they’ve made excuses to avoid. Wake up bro

You still didn’t respond to the main points I made about Haney’s worth.
If Haney is a much bigger star than Shakur then he should be making way more than Shakur, no?
Shakur made $3 million vs De Los Santos, Yoshino and Jamel Herring. None of those guys are big name dance partners.
Haney has to fight a big name to make that kind of money.

Of course now that Haney has fought Loma and Ryan, he’s considered to be a bigger name than Shakur.

Again you leave context when you say Shakur fights guys like Padley. Padley was a late replacement for someone who chickened out of fighting Shakur. How is that Shakur’s fault?

Since you mention Boots, he fights Stanionis and will make Stanionis look like an amateur while unifying two belts. I did tell you that if Boots does not unify three belts this year, I would call him a bum.

Top rank is losing money on shakur fights. He’s never fought on PPV even once. Yet he expected a 50/50 PPV split with no belts and no drawing power. No one knows who baby lion king is. Haney isn’t much better but people know him. He’s fought in big fights.

Haney’s done anyway. If he gets past Ramirez, Ryan is going to KO him this time for sure and it’s all over. I don’t think Haney can beat anyone at 147 so other than retiring, not sure what else he”ll do.

Unlike Boots, Shakur has won titles at two weight classes and is willing to be the B side if Tank is interested so I’m going to give him grace.

To be clear, I don’t disagree with you that Haney is a “bigger” name than Shakur. Just saying that without Loma, Kambosos and Ryan, a very small margin separates him from Shakur.

Shakur just isn’t him. He’s top 3ish but I don’t think he would stop the guys tank has Ryan Garcia would boot eff him

Tank is such a low volume fighter that Loma would have an excellent opportunity at beating him. Loma went into semi-retirement at the wrong time. He could've had a big payday and a notable win. Tank just doesn't have much of a gas tank and he needs to keep the fight at a slow, measure chess-match pace. He would have fits with any very good fighter that is offensively crafty and aggressive. Pitbull and Tank had a VERY close fight. Tank had a world of trouble with Cruz.

...and I believe Shakur is way overrated also. An skilled, aggressive, offensive minded fighter could be big trouble for him too. There's too many spots where Shakur likes to rest, settle himself and turn things into a chess match. He doesn't like to be constantly pressured. That's one of his kryptonite.
