Shakur is way to boring to watch fight

[richardt]

How is this fight even being considered when they are in different weight classes and Benn doesn't even hold a title in any division whatsoever???

That would be a big money fight. Coming with a rehydration clause, Benn won't take that fight - not right now. Shakur will give him a boxing lesson. Benn isn't going to risk his earning power, overseas, by taking a sure loss against Shakur. He'll seek an easier big named opponent instead.

Zero chance Benn does a rehydration clause.

Which is quite funny.

[drablj]

this is the most irrelevant fight proposed lately. pro boxing is so random.

Shakur probably just sees him on TV every week like the rest of us, and figures he some kind of star or something. Kind of a shrewd call-out from Shakur, asking for the hydration. Not happening at all.

They set up a in ring WWE confrontation like its going to marinate a meal no one wanted.

Benn on fighting Haney, "he's too boring."

Benn on fighting Shakur, "he's too small."

I think he wants to talk himself into a title shot without earning it, at the same time he wants a big payday and I doubt either guy will provide the payday that will make a loss worthwhile for him (I guess Turki could make it happen).

He's already got a title shot without earning it.

He's the WBC mandatory for the Barrios-Garcia winner. How, I have no clue. He's beaten zero Top 10 ranked WW's in his career.
