Comments Thread For: Shakur Stevenson-Josh Warrington Unification Eyed For May 16

[SuperSuperLeeds]

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.

He will travel like Ryan martin

As long as they are paying him handsomely to go to Warrington's backyard he should take the unification.

Shakur is gonna be a lil timid to go to the UK...that is a tough out for a young buck like him. I think Stevenson can be talked through his fears by elders and management; Andre and Crawford.
Only thing between the 2 is air and opportunity.....

There is little chance of Warren paying him enough to get this fight made over here, the only way it happens is if its co-main on a big top rank card or headlines a smaller show

Stevenson was calling for the Warrington fight and I think he said he was prepared to fight him in the UK. I think Stevenson would be the favourite but I suspect his mgmt team and promoter may suggest he take an easier fight in NY.

Shakur last fight 10/26

Shakur next fight 5/16

^^ Should a 22 yrd old be out of the ring that long???

warrington isn’t skilled enough
Shakur will win this

I don't trust Stevenson going to England. They're known for there corrpupt scoring, fighters getting away with PED's (Dillan Whyte). Stevenson will need a knockout to get a draw there.

Pbc and Top Rank are really serving up some good fights in the 2020 horizon...well done Haymon and Arum well done

I don't trust Warrington going to the USA. They're known for their corrupt scoring (Wilder Vs Fury, Canelo card vs Mayweather etc), fighters getting away with PED's (Jarrell Miller). Warrington will need a knockout to get a draw there.
