Just watching the build up for this on Sky, and I'm looking forward to the fight's result. Not so much the fight itself, which figures to be passive and boring, but I think the winner of this is clearly the number one super featherweight in the world. It's a pretty awesome match-up to be made.
And I hope we can all agree Stevenson is an absolute cunt, and Herring is a cool guy. I'd absolutely love it if Herring sparked him out, but I think Stevenson wins.
I can. If Stevenson isn't great at cutting the ring, Herring's length and jab could win a close decision. As it looks, Stevenson's complete lack of urgency makes it seem like he has trouble with mobile guys. I tend to think he'll be able to deal with Herring's height, but it wouldn't surprise me if he can't.
I'd be happy if you're right. I lost track of fights, btw. I didn't realize this was next week. I'll tune in.
Final predictions on this one? No one else looking forward to it? I think Stevenson's gonna dominate Herring. Possibly stop him.
I haven't been following either, but from what I know I'd expect Stevenson to 'out-talent' Herring. Still, it would be nice if Herring won. It would be another upset to add to the 2021 Boxing books.
REED's Expecting a SPIRITED Affair Early, w/Shakur's CLASS, SPEED and SKILL Resulting in a Late Stoppage or UD... Herring ISN'T a Bad Fighter by Any Means; Former US Olympian, Naturally BIGGER Than Shakur...Thing Is, Herring ISN'T Special in Any Regard, Whereas Shakur IS Special When Measuring Defensive Reflexes, Timing, Countering and Footwork/Movement... As REED Stated in his Video, Shakur Will Be 1 1/2 Steps AHEAD of Herring Most of the Night...Soooo, the Onus is On Herring to MAKE Something Happen Early, VERY Early (Like BEFORE Round 3), Before a PATTERN Develops... 1nce Shakur's Acclimated Himself to How/When//Where/Why You're Punching @ Him, It's Pretty Much a WRAP... REED
Like Any Other Fighter w/a Famous NAME, Per Se, REED Doesn't Begrudge Nico Ali Walsh from Making a Living... But WHY the Fuck is His Fight TELEVISED????... THAT'S the Problem... REED
Ali kid ain’t half bad…..no boxing instinct… his opponent only punch is the right hand…and he’s landing it often. Ali kept walking into it…
