Comments Thread For: Josh Warrington vs. Shakur Stevenson Talks Hit a Snag

All that talk. Shakur looks bad with a capital B. He needs to keep Warringtons name out of his mouth for ever.

This article is " fake news ". Talks hit a snag? The Stevenson/Marriaga card on March 14th. was announced months ago and tickets are already on sale. Shakur always stated that he wouldn't mind Warrington next. Don't believe the hype!

Arum already explained this. They do want to make the Warrington fight.



“The kid didn’t wanna wait until May or June [to fight],” Arum said, referring to Stevenson. “So, what we’re doing is having him fight on March 14th. And then, all things being good, we’ll do [the Stevenson-Warrington] fight a little later, in May or June. It’s up to Frank [Warren, Warrington’s promoter], when he can get the building.”

Stevenson beats Warrington 9 rounds to 3. Not the " great " fight that many are anticipating!

In other words Warrington doesn't want to leave the comfort of his own home. These Brits win a title and hoard it by never leaving the U.K. I'm sorry but if you want to be great, you have to fight in the U.S. Brits who actually step out of the U.K are the ones in the Hall of Fame, those who don't, are not. Plain and simple.

Another solid unification fight that I'll have to wait to see (if it ever even comes off).

Boxing has me feeling like an abused spouse. I'm off to read Tina Turner's autobiography.

HUH...Josh Widdicombe would be battered by Shakin Stevens but he must be 60+.....oops

That's a good fight. I think Gary would outpoint Stevenson right now. Top Rank and Ward would never let him take that fight. I'm sure Herring would fight Gary if Herring beats Frampton.

A lot of talk and no action by Stevenson. He's afraid! Period!

Shut up you clown and hide in shame at another one of your big mouth cowards talking all that shlt only to run when his call was answered. That's the American way. It's been happening throughout history.

The location doesn't define the fight. The fighters do, no matter where it happens. Stevenson mouthed off about fighting in England where a proper crowd will be with all the money. But he instead wants to fight in front of a dozen people for peanuts. Too scared to travel because Americans lose nearly every time they leave their corrupt location and have done throughout history. The USA means less than nothing these days. But delusional nut-jobs will always come out with laughable excuses to justify your cowardice.

The Brits fight proper opponents. Check the resumes. It's the Americans that hide titles for years fighting nothing but stinking garbage and ducking proper opposition. They also travel the world. Check history. Then check the pathetic history your guys have.

Now stop embarrassing yourself and crawl back into your hole. Degrading yourself any further shows a lack of dignity and self respect.
