Shakur Stevenson vs Joe Cordina

Well that’s disappointing…

Shakur Stevenson Vs. Joe Cordina Set For October 12th In Riyadh - Latest Boxing News

 

Pretty much guarantees that Tank's next fight will be against Rayo.

 

After Shakur got exposed...they'll be wrapping him in bubble wrap, carefully picking opponents to keep that shiny undefeated record intact. Just wait it out until he cashes out against a big name. He's shaping up to be the next Booboo or other fighters of his ilk ducking the real threats while he can.

 

After Cordina's last fight you have to expect even a defensive feather-fist like Shakur to finally get a stoppage.

 

Yeah this has "good matchmaking" written all over it. Cordina is absolutely made for a guy like Shakur to look his best. Hittable, hurtable, coming off a bad loss.

 

you blokes doin your best to downplay stevensons foe. this kid has legit 1 punch KO power!

Shakur is in desperate need of a dominant performance.

 

Looks like this fight will be on the card of Beterbiev vs Bivol before the main even starts. Card looks decent.

meanwhile Keyshawn Davis is allegedly taking on gustavo lemos nov 8th, a tougher opponent than cordina.

 

With davis and mason, no wonder TR let shakur go.

 

Fair Point...

But Keyshawn ISN'T That Good and Abdullah's Like 15 Years of Age...

There's a Helluva LOT More on Shakur's Resume Than JUST Cordina Though, Compared to Keyshawn's Resume...

Keyshawn is nothing special.

 

Neither is Shakur and time will prove it.

 

Could be. But I think he’s way better than Keyshawn

 

This fight is PPV?

 

on the beterbiev bivol PPV card. allegedly his excellency is paying stevenson 5 million

 

I would love to know the numbers for these events….is his excellency making a profit? Cutting even? Losing money? 5 mils for Stevenson tune up? I’m thinking Bivol & Beter are getting more than 5mil each….

Great main event for the boxing fan…but the average Joe don’t know Beterbiev or Bivol…so those ppv will be very low…200-300k …probably less…a lot less.

 

30 years ago Oscar was making that sort of money on the regular .

 

yeah Oscar he was more popular than any active fighter today……

Shakur has a few fans in the east coast…. 5-7 mil if he was fighting Loma in the Garden or Barclays …10-12 if it’s Tank….5 mil for a tune up? Smh…we live in inflationary times.

 

This fight is now PPV while the actual main event (Beterbiev vs Bivol) is free. Makes no sense.

arum realizes beterbiev vs bivol is not a money maker, if it was on ppv, mid day from the middle east. if it was up to him putting up the money this fight wouldve never happened.

 

Shakur Stevenson vs Joe Cordina Title Fight OFF Due To Injury: "He's Had Immediate Surgery" - Seconds Out

 

Shakur’s stock has really dropped.

Dont care at all.

 

Shakur is a complete black hole for excitement. Couldnt care less if we never see him fight again. Kind of sad, cause he does have talent and skills..

 

I think Shakur got hurt because he didn't have proper leverage on that body shot. Looked mostly arms and fist to me.

Watch a power puncher like Tank throw a body shot; they explode up from their legs, through their hips, and transfer that energy to their upper body.

 

Wouldn't think you'd get a hand injury from a bodyshot. Maybe elbow or shoulder. But hand?
