I just hope we get the Best of Both.

This could be SFOTY (Snooze fest of the year). Styles make fights and 2 prudent counterpunchers spells ZZzzzzz to me.

Props to Turki for making the fight. We know Tank ain't fighting no one.

Not gonna happen. Shakur is black, so running is automatically great boxing or sweet science.so hed win 11 rounds at least

This fight gonna be a snoozefest. Teofemale chasing Shakira for 12 rounds and the crowds gonna boo but the thugs gonna call it a great boxing clinic with very little punches or power punches landed.

Would Teo beat Zepeda? I think he'd flatten him. On the other hand, the Teo that beat Lomachenko? I don't think that Teo exists anymore (unfortunately) and I also don't rate the Josh Taylor fight as highly as others do - imo JT was past his best at that point, he'd been in some wars vs Prograis and Ramirez and Caterall 1 (who he lost to) - Shakur should win this by decision but I can see a way for Lopez to win a controversial decision in one of those "it depends what the judges like" controversies.

Teo needs to start fighting and defeating some of the elite American bruthas in boxing. If he is ever going to get noticed or receive the type of money and recognition he so desperately craves from the casual fan.
