I can't get a read on Shakur. He acts like a prick sometimes, but he's also pretty respectful of his current peers, even guys like Haney, Fimo, and Garcia. Notably, Mike said that David Benavidez reminds him of Carlos Monzon.
He's a known name here in Jersey. Still hasn't crossed over in the mainstream. I find Stevenson LESS dislikable than Haney. Haney is nothing more than a Floyd ripoff, stylewise and persoanlity wise. I find him the most dislikable of the young guys.
it will be interesting to see how top rank goes about getting someone, anyone to fight stevenson. back when mayweather jr was dominant at 130 at least hbo was ponying up relatively big purses for him and his opponents so it was worth it to them to take the ass whipping. even then, at a certain point it became difficult for mayweather jr to get the bigger names in the ring until he beat delahoya.
i think valdez would, i dont think his manager will allow for it. at least until it becomes a much bigger payday
Haney, Tank and Stevenson are three of the most unlikeable cunts in all of boxing right now. Wilder isn't far behind.
Last Shakur fight, I fell asleep in the third round and woke up during the announcement of the winner. He's getting ready to come on and my eyes are already getting droopy. It could be a repeat.
