    Why is it so hard for people to be objective and think logically? In what world does Teofimo Lopez have the skillset to beat Stevenson?
    Teo is far from being the best guy but he is a good American boxer

      Crazy this fight us actually happening. Teo belongs to 147, Shakur belongs to 135.

        Great match up. We'll see what both men are made of. I think Stevenson frustrates Teo and takes the decision.

                why spite Shakur

                he not as good as Floyd but he’s the one defensive wizard in boxing today

                  SS got too much credit for actually "fighting" Zepeda - and Zepeda was not given any credit for throwing almost 1,000 punches and having SS cornered for long stretches in the fight. If that same fight happened in TX, NV, CA, Zepeda would have likely gotten at least 3-4 rounds, not 0-1 like he was given in NY.

                  I don't think SS will be given that same benefit of the doubt here, at least not to the extreme- and I think Teo has enough cache in NYC to be given those rounds where Zepeda wasn't. Obviously they don't fight anything alike so it will look different - I am just saying the psychology of the scoring of the fight will be different.

                  I basically start off with Teo potentially being able to win those 3-4 rounds that Zepeda didn't and go from there. It's a close fight

                    I need to look at them both more but as of right now I think Shakur boxes his head off.

                    I am not one of these who thinks Shakur is some otherworldly talent but I have seen Teo get outboxed way, way too many times by pure boxers and similar style fighters to Shakur.
                    The guy has struggled real bad or lost to every pure-boxer now he's going to suddenly beat Shakur? Hmm

                      After Stevenson wins there will be a bunch of excuses and none of the people predicting Shakur to lose will give him any credit at all. That's the way it goes around here.
