Great fight. It seems like all the young prospects and champions are taking high risk fights proving their worth. Tank Davis should take notice.

Josh does not strike me as a "high risk" proposition.

Of course , Tank needs to step up his comp.

Always great to beat a Brits ass in England.

Why so soon? pretty sure he needed an 8 months break after the very tough fight against Gonzalez. Pathetic!

On a positive side note, I think this is a damn good fight where we're gonna find out who the best at 126 is and what Stevenson is made of. Warrington is going to bring the pain and if Stevenson is all skill without enough heart and grit, he's probably not going to win.

Stevenson is shook. Warrington's got this.

Other than that parking lot madness, Shakur is impressive, very skilled, but I don't know how well he will travel. He got handled in the Olympics by a hype job. The tears and bawling didn't show any maturity. He may be susceptible to head games and might fold under pressure. Warrington in the UK is as good a test as any. We all know Josh is a busy body, quantity with some quality, but no nonsense.

wasn't a fan of the parking lot incident either. Not to mention his technique during that brawl was sloppy. However, I wouldn't out much stock into an Olympic loss. He was a teenager against a 23 yr old. We've seen several boxers get revenge as pros from amateur losses. I remember Cotto washing a couple of guys as pros that he lost to as an amateur.

Warrington would end the hype. I say 'would', cause the pressure will get to Stevenson and he will pull out with an excuse.

[Vodkaholic]

Well warrington cant do worse than shakurs last opponent.

[Mister Wolf]

Stevenson needs to sit down on his punches, hurt this guy, and if he does go for the finish. Make a statement.
