    Is this the official Shakur Stevenson fan page now? Stevenson Stops Tank? Tank is avoiding Shakur and Haney? Are u guys serious? I don't like Shakur or Tank so I have no favorite but Tank is more proven at 135 than Shakur. To say Shakur Stops Tank is like saying Chris Byrd stops David Tua. Tank has never been dropped or stopped what makes anyone think pillow fisted Shakur Stops him? Wishful thinking fanboying statement if I ever heard one.

    After the first KD, Garcia stopped attacking and his chance of winning was gone - Davis got the respect he needed and fight turned into something he could win. But prior to that, Garcia was getting to him with his aggression.....Davis was holding a lot and clearly uncomfortable.

    Shakur is a level above Tank. The gap in skill and talent is too wide for Tank’s punching power to make a difference.

    Garcia was reacting to every feint after that. Backing up from so many punches and feints rather than looking to counter. Another time he just went into a little fetal position shell.

    I figured that knockdown rattled him.

    Davis gets hated on a lot.
    I like the dude.
    Wayy better “boxer” than given credit for,..especially given the fact that he is usually always at a size, height and reach disadvantage.

    great speed and reflexes,..and can turn the lights out at any given second.

    Go Tank!!!!!

    Garcia is an Oscar wannabe.
    Just a matter of time before he gets splattered.
    Wish Tank woulda talked shit to him after he quit like a bitch.

    Nothing about Garcia to like,..unless you’re a woman.
    Looks and skills, that’s about it.

    average chin and little heaet

    Although Tank obviously hasn't shown any such capabilities so far, I find it quite normal that fanboys overhype their favorite. Without such fans the sport would do even worse than it does now

    This reminds me of the early 2000s post-Oscar,post-Tito,pre-Floyd roundabout-og-circuitousness that was 147lbs.

    You take 1 guy, hype fuck out of him, then he gets beat, which ensures the guy who beat him is a monster, and around it goes.

    Tank has done very little. Garcia even LESS.

    I see people saying Shakur hasn’t been tested, but I’d argue he’s been more tested Tank. Valdez is better than anyone Tank has beaten.

    I don't care who is the best/most proven all means dick..

    Davis vs Haney will be difficult to make because both think they are the A side....Haney because he ran into a gift of unification w/ a C level fighter Kambosos...and * beat an old Loma. Tank because he can pack in arenas(the last 8 times 15K+) and he beat Ryan...

    Davis vs. Loma...Loma probably retires...

    Shakur at this moment seem to more level headed of them all...he's better than the others, he knows it and he's willing to prove it. He also knows he isn't the A side so he will take all the shit to make the fights happen....He's Boot at 135 with a cast who is not as PUSSY like Spence and Crawford..

    Exactly...

    BHop Always Pulls That Shit When a Golden Boy Fighter is Facing an Urban, Inner City, "Hood" Guy...He Tries to One Up the Younger, Black Fighter on Some OG Shit...

    Tank Did the Right Thing Because BHop's Been Lowkey NEEDLING Him Since the Very 1st Press Conference - Looking at an Admittedly LATE Tank Davis, Telling Him "Don't Be Late"...

    Bruh, You're LUCKY DeLa Keeps You Around In HIS Company @ ALL, So Please DON'T Act Like You're Somebody's BOSS When You're NOT...Fuck the FUCK Off & Get Out of My Face & Space!!!...

    Everyone KNOWS a Weigh-In is TENSE & EDGY to Begin w/, Last Thing BHop Needed to Do was Try to "Pull Rank" (as Merchant Used to Say) on Tank IN That Moment, TANK'S Moment No Less...

    Sure, BHop's a LEGEND & He Deserves RESPECT, But Respect is a 2 Way Street...BHop was Getting a Little Toooooo COMFORTABLE Speaking to Tank Just Any Ol' Way...@ Some Point You've Got to TELL a Dude About Himself, Legend or Not...Stand Your Ground...

    Tank's Had His Fair Share of WELL Documented Missteps, Sadly, He'll Likely Have More...But in Regards to the BHop Situation, REED is Totally on Tank's Side...

    BHop was Attempting Some PSEUDO Psychological Bullshit, in Hopes of Helping a Golden Boy Fighter, in the Looooooong Run...

    Oh the Irony of Tank FINISHING Said Golden Boy Fighter in the SAME Fashion BHop Finished THE Golden Boy...In the End, Tank Wrapped it All Up in a Nice Little Bow, w/a Cherry On Top....

    Gabe Rosado vs "Swift" Jarrett Hurd in a Loser Leaves Town Match...

    Collectively, they'd SHATTER Whatever the Compubox Record for LANDED Punches and Connect % is, as Neither of Them Could MISS the Other w/a Punch...

    Benavidez Needs to Sit Ringside During the Canelo-Ryder Fight & Get IN the Ring Afterwards...

    It's to THAT Point...No Faux Shoving Matches or Anything, But Benavidez Needs to RESPECTFULLY Irritate Canelo Until He Finally Gets the Fight...

    What Ward Accomplished in the "Super 6" Made Him Very Good...Moving Up & Eventually STOPPING Kovalev, Who Many Expected to SMOKE Ward, Took 'Dre to a HIGHER Level....

    And All the While, the Last Time Ward Took an L was When He was Like 9 Years Old or Some Crazy Shit...Though Admittedly, the 1st Kovalev Bout COULD Have Gone to the Krusher...The U.S.' Last Male Olympic Gold Medalist...

    Ward Wasn't a GENERATIONAL Talent, Clearly, But He was Indeed a GREAT Fighter for His Era, in REED's Opinion...

    BLAND, UNREMARKABLE Personality, BARELY Rewatchable as a Fighter, But GREAT, Nonetheless...

    It's BAD Enough REED's Toooo OLD to Know Most of the RAPPERS Walking Guys to the Ring These Days; Ryan Made a TRULY "WTF" Song Choice in What Will Probably Be THE Biggest Moment of His Boxing Life...Mrs. REED Even Looked Over @ REED Quizzically, But He Had NO Answers for Her:Dont:...

    On that Note, for Shits & Giggles, REED's Always Said He'd Walk Out to "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me" by Boy George & Culture Club...

    w/the Possible Exceptions of Josh Taylor and Teofimo "F'ing" Lopez, Shakur Beats ANYONE Currently Below '47, in REED's Opinion...w/VARYING Degrees of Difficulty, of Course...
