    I'm a cholo, lol, okay. David Lemieux can punch like a mule kick, but would I have picked him to beat Benavidez? See, I can acknowledge a guy punches hard without going overboard unlike you.

    I was referring to Shakur.

    You're severely overrating my fandom of Shakur. I think he's a talented fighter, but I don't care for him much beyond that.

    I've never once considered him "generational" in the mold of say, Mayweather, Whitaker, or Pac. However, I'm not ready to write him off after just one dud of a performance. He's still one of the best fighters in the world.

    Yeah same, not to barge in to the debate or anything, but Shakur is obviously really good. It was an atrocious performance last time out but every boxer is allowed one. I still wouldn't pick many guys to beat him.

    I can appreciate that. He is talented and so is Morrell. My only objection is I don't see Morrell being ready for Benevidez. His trainer already turned down a fight with him

    Stevenson has received more acclaim and praise than pacquaio did through the first 6 years of their careers

    Got beat by Benavidez but still put on an admirable effort. Showed lot of heart and toughness. He’ll be back.
