    That should give Shakur an idea of exactly where he stands financially in the boxing world
    Where does Brian Norman Jr stand financially in the boxing world? He turned down $1.7 million to fight Boots then got paid pennies to fight Cuevas.

      Who knows how to cut off the ring. With a very high work rate and huge punch volume? Stevenson is going to have to fight and not run against this dude in order to win
      You're right about that poster not knowing S-hit about boxing, but let me ask you, in the interest of discussing how Shakur vs Zepeda might play out. What leads you to believe the fight won't resemble Shakur vs Padley? Or Taylor vs Chavez, without Zepeda having the punching power that Chavez had?

        And Boots still doesn’t have his belt
        I thought he wanted to unify ???

          Let it go to purse bids and see who backs their fighter DLH or Hearn.

              Hearn is the one that has a problem, not Oscar. Zepeda hasn't once complained on social media nor bragged about how much he is worth. Eddie's the one that is contractually bound to Shakur, not Oscar.

              I'm gonna assume that Zepeda has never made more than $500k a fight so 25% of $3.5 million might be enough to make Zepeda happy. Will 75% of that amount be enough to satisfy Shakur????

                Purse bid Zepeda is getting 30%
                Who has offered $3.5m before bids? The Arabs?
