    I gotta back Shakur. Tank has got crazy power and while his boxing skills are decent, it's usually that that bails him out. Shakur's ability to avoid punishment is unreal so I really don't think that'd be enough for Davis this time.

    I'd see Stevenson winning in a lopsided decision.

    I'll say Stevenson by SD. He's all about winning rounds, while Davis doesn't mind losing some. Davis can box, but he could easily lose rounds and depend on his knockout power.

    80/20 Shakur

    The 20% is if Gervonta lands something big on Shakur.

    Tank counters well and has good timing, but if he cannot connect early and often he gets outboxed. Now, if he increases his output, it could make things interesting. Throwing more and making Shakur engage benefits him. To your point, Shakur is a difficult dude to find. This is another fight that needs to happen sooner than later.

    Stevenson on points or Davis by kayo. If these are the last two left standing at lightweight when things rinse out, I hope they're willing to face each other. Not pretend the other doesn't exist or behave like divas.

    Tanks my guy but I think Shakur is all wrong for him. Once he KOs Garcia he won't need a fight with Shakur either

    Shakur is the man right now
    Davis has less than a punchers chance

    Shakur will box everyone's head off in the next few years

    I think he coasts to an easy UD

    Stevenson is the better, more skilled boxer and he clearly wins. 118-110 type of the fight.

    Shakur looks like the real deal but he's being hugely overrated IMO. Always consider the opponents. He's looked great vs so-so opposition.

    For what it's worth, I picked Conceicao to pull the upset. I've thought Valdez was **** for years.

    ....we agree on something?? Wild. But yeah Shakur is good AF. Reminiscent of PBF days...beautiful offense and defense. Top of the class...and we're all lucky AF he's calling out big dogs as young as he is. We got a lot of fun fights ahead of us by this young man
