    Potential fight next. I see it being 9-3 or 8-4 Stevenson. 3-4 rounds Warrington will win just due to his volume. Hopefully, Warrington doesn't duck.

    Shauker is one of those guys who I won't pick against.

    Dude is special. I still think Haney is better, but Shakur is right up there.

    Warrington of course.....

    It’s a good fight and a logical next step for both.

    I think it is the type of fight that can bring out the best in Stevenson. Joet really just had nothing for him last night and Stevenson just was able to win in cruise control. The fight was a sparring session.

    I like Warrington and he would come to fight and is a very proven commodity in the pro ranks. I wish we knew more about Stevenson's gas tank and ability to handle adversity in a pro fight over 12 rounds. I really like this match up and Stevenson is definitely in the mix with Warrington, Santa Cruz, Russel and Davis. I think those are all interesting fights down the pipeline and Its actually quite sad that I named a bunch of top guys around the same weight and they dont fight each other

    I don´t think Shakur will be stepping up anytime soon. That dude is about to go on a bum of the month tour.
    Shakur will be defending his title against no-hopers and seemingly past it contenders such as Frampton.

    Why would it be a surprise? Dude is massive **** and boring as hell.
    And TR has a track record of safeguarding their new WBO champions. Just look at Valdez and Ramirez. Or even Loma.

    Shakur is calling Warrington out. He's been calling him out for ages, are you saying he doesn't want to fight him? Sure, Bob might have a say about it, but I doubt Bob is afraid to put him in there with Warrington. It's not like Warrington is a Beterbiev type talent.

    Made the mistake of picking against Warrington vs Selby and Frampton because I found it hard to see anything exceptional about him. But he brings a level of intensity which compensates for an average skill set and his lack of power. If you can't live with his work rate he WILL find you out. Be careful what you wish for Shakur... Josh is a very hard night's work for any one in the division atm....

    I mean he seems like he wants no part of Shakur. Josh is at the point where he's been champ and wants big money fights, not a fight against a guy that will school him and not pay him that much more.
