    I thought it’d be a ud for Shakur but expected a more competitive fight from Teo. Great win for Shakur.

      Even if Shakur's puts his best performance, it's the most boring match ever.

        Perhaps you misunderstood me. I agree, Teofimo can't beat Shakur. I'm saying if Teofimo is going to go forward with his career, he may want to replace his dad - he's never going to face Shakur again. He made no case for the public to see a rematch.

        And if you are suggesting that Shakur didn't engage, you're a straight hater.
        You let me know how do you beat a person who only jabs and steps back all night? Are you literaly going to run after him? If you go forward he catches you with the jab or he steps back, rince and repeat for 12 rounds.

          The only who has chance is Devin Haney. Jab vs Jab all night. Not to much entertaining Matchup.

          Everyone so up Shakur's ass. What does he do great, Jab and Step back? What else.

            Shakur made teofimo look like a complete amateur. Teofimo was swinging aimlessly in the later rounds, looking silly as hell. Shakur had this fool mentally shook. He literally took his soul and will.

              Shakur's dad is Puerto Rican.

                I think he was already gassed out and just hoping to land anything. The only one with a chance would be Devin Haney with his jab.

                  A masterclass, arguably the best boxer in the world today, pound for pound.

                  Mayweather like, he's a superb technician, when he's focused.

                  Teofimo, a world class fighter, probably needs to change head trainer, with respect to his dad. In the corner you need specific instructions, not things such as 'go get him', you gotta win this round. No, technical info is required.

                    You don't win unanimously not throwing anything significant for nearly 6 rounds. Shakur had no defense or adjustment for the all those body shots he took keeping his elbows wide in high guard.

                    Compubox had Teo only landed 72 punches, aka 6 punches per every 3 minutes on average.

                    The fix was in for the in-house fighter worse than Kelly in England.


                    Ask Teo did he win the last 6 rounds‍♂️

                      I'll say it. Teo's two best wins are both already retired. Went life or death in a loss to a cherry pick. But that's to take nothing away from Shakur though. I thought he would win but didn't think it would be that dominant.
