Comments Thread For: Stevenson: Gary Russell Ain't No Punk; I Don't Think He's Ducking Me

[Citizen Koba]

Your paragraph is kinda of crazy. Maybe he heard people saying that Russel jr. was ducking him and he said that that isn't true. He didn't accuse Russel jr of anything.

No, I know - I even say that Shakur didn't say Gary was ducking him...

As for GRJ 'ducking' him... well I know he's saying he ain't

..it's more that I was saying the thread title's kinda weird even leading with that, though maybe I coulda phrased it better.

Most likely explanation is exactly what you said, that there's been folk saying Gary was ducking him even though I ain't personally seen anyone saying that. Mainly just another clickbait article or something I guess. 'Spose it is a kinda quiet spell right now on the boxing news front.

I’d rather see Russell vs Stank

I'd go with that if it wasn't for the size difference... can't see Gervonta going below 135 now and honestly I'm guessing he's even gonna be struggling making LW...

GRJ deserves more experienced opponents.

One thing we have to be very appreciative is the hearts of these young guys!

They have no problem calling anyone out and seem to be ready to fight anyone!

Meanwhile Tank Davis finally fighting somebody "decent" smh.

I hear you
But apparently his fight with Leo gonna be at 130
Honestly , I’m thinking it’s total bullchit
Ffs he had a hard time making 135 lol

Welll, let's just say I'm a little sceptical of his ability to get down to 130... if I'm LSC Ima be wanting at the very least a penalty clause.

That’s another fughin problem
Knowing LSC he gonna take the money and then complain about the weight for his loss
This is becoming another problem in boxing
Fighters just don’t give two fughs anymore knowing the opponent will accept money for not making weight

True man. I'd say the SACs / Governing bodies need to tighten that shit up cos the sanctioning orgs (outside maybe the IBF) don't gonna give a shit and outside of title fights are completely toothless anyway.

As things stand the ABC guidelines say it's all cool as long as the boxers can renegotiate the contract which basically hands all power to the A side.

Least the BBBoC state any contracted variations from the standard rules need to be approved before the weigh-in.

Russell vs Leo or Davis are great fights. That said, they're waiting for him to lose or retire.

That's my thought too I think GRJ is one of the most well rounded fighters in the sport I'd like to see a Lomo rematch honestly. I believe he has improved since his loss to Lomo not saying he would win but I'd like see if he could make the adjustments to win

We are on the same page. Cheers!

"Gary ain't no punk is true" but Shakur you definitely are a punk, you proved it by hitting a defenseless person on the ground and swinging punches at women. SHAKUR = PUNK
