Comments Thread For: William Zepeda wins majority nod in rematch with gutsy Tevin Farmer

[champion4ever]

I agree and disagree with some of this. I like Zepeda and think he dominated in the 2nd fight. And I think Farmer "should have" thrown more, and when he did, he froze up Zepeda at times.

But I disagree that Tevin didn't have power. He froze Zepeda a few times and I kept wondering if Zepeda, despite numerical dominance, would go down before it was over, even if he got back up and still won.

That's true. You make a very salient point here. He did shook Zepeda on multiple occasions in this fight. However, Tevin lacked both the cardio and workrate to let his hands go more.

At least to me it seem; Farmer was preserving his energy for the later rounds. He probably feared punching himself out early in the fight. He should have met Zepeda in the center of the ring and just let his hands go from the opening bell.

Perhaps, he could have knocked Zepeda out by implementing that style as opposed to that jabbing while backing up strategy which cost him the fight.

Counter? by someone jumping back like cat and doing indy 500 around the ring.

It's called "boxing", not rooster fighting. If you want rooster fighting, go watch two drunks in an alleyway in Mexicali.

It's Called boxing not game a tag, land one pit pat jab and run for 2 minutes and 55 seconds round.

He beat De Los Santos fair & square. I'm sorry if you feel like it wasn't exciting enough for you, but that's not the job of boxing.

It's to hit & not get hit & Shakur does that better than anyone in the sport.

Keyshawn just won his title like a week ago.

He's been chasing Loma for years & Loma won't fight him.

You're right Tank won't fight anyone. that's not Shakur's fault.

And how do we know he has "brittle hands"?

Because he had ONE injury like plenty of boxers do?

Just say you're a hater & move on with your life.

I Do Hate Runners and Huggers, I know you LOVE them. Expecially the huggers. To Bad refs don't do anything about it, but that's the brothers style. Jab, hug, and run. Haney, Tevin, Hugginson Clitchens.

Boxing does need to be exciting, that's the reason people watch otherwise Chess would be on PPV. That's reason people tune in to watch Tank, Tyson, Wilder, Pacman excitement. See how everyone boo Shakur even in his own hometown.

Shakur won't stop any top 5 Light weights. That's what I mean by brittle hands. Plus he constantly hurts them. He has no power at 135.
