    Shakur Stevenson has decided to hang up the gloves.

    Where does he rank all time?

    Top 1000 all time, I had high hopes for that young man. But he’s all up in on social media…worried about other people business wayyy to much.

    I’ll give it a few weeks when he announces his “return”.

    This won’t last long.

    On a more serious note, I question Shakur’s heart and focus. There’s a real lack of maturity there.

    What do you mean? Shakur has earned her place as a legend of the game, made her money and sailed off into the sunset.

    Has there in the history of the sport been a more UNlikeable 5-some than Tank, Haney, Teo, Shakur, and Ryan? The way they act, you wanna see all 5 of em KO'd Jackson-Graham style.

    out of all them Lopez is the most ambitious and at least legitimately beat the top guy in 2 divisions.

    Disappointing because I had thought maybe Bud would rub off on Shakur but it doesn’t seem to be the case. He’s just like those other fuckers. Whiny bitches.

    I don't find Haney unlikeable. His father is, but not Devon

    Yes, Teo is clearly the most ambitious of the 5.

    Paula is the least ambitious.

    Shakur's art will live on forever, like the man he's named after.

    They'll be a movie made about his career, called All Eyes on Sleep.

    Not gon lie, I haven't slept much since Shakur's announcement. I hope the sport can sustain without him.

    The only way I'm able to get sleep is by rewatching the De Los Santos fight.

    One day I shall tell my grandsons of his Valor. I'll never forget staying up until six in the morning to watch his WBO featherweight title fight against Joet Gonzales.

    A truly inspiring fighter, with a heart of gold.

    I had a feeling he would just keep moving up. But he seriously needs to stay at 130 not chasing vacated belts. I just think it's a mistake to go from 122 to 135 that quickly.

    Coming off Instagram and Facebook was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

    According to Neil's source, he's fighting Berinchyk for the WBO lightweight belt.

    He's moving up too quickly. A tall rangey junior featherweight not long ago. Soon he'll be a pudgy junior welterweight.
