i think stevenson beats Haney and Davis and Garcia. Lopez being hes only challenge. if we are talking strictly yanks.
Yeah not sure last weekend changes anything here tbh. Stylistically this is bad for Shakur and he doesn't possess the craft of Lomachenko nor the power of García.
Pretty critical 18 months at that stage of development, though. You can't act like it's the same as between a 22 year old and 23.5 year old.
It's still a 50/50 fight imo. Shakur doesn't have the type of power to hurt Haney the way Garcia did. It will come down to who is the better skilled fighter at the end of the day. I'd go with Shakur by Decision.
I don't think Shakur loses to anyone currently competing unless he in an act of hubris decides to go up to say...................WW. There was a point when I thought Loma could outduel him, that time has long since passed. As far as Devin, Ryan, Tank, Pitbull, Frank.............and anyone else hovering between those weights, nah............Shakur isn't gonna lose. I'd really be pissed off if I competed in those 2 division and ended up having to fight Shakur because it's gonna be a terrible fight, either he's gonna turn up and tee off on you for 12 rounds or he's gonna move and pot shot for 12 rounds while you hit nothing but air................the risk of fighting and almost with certainty losing to him isn't worth it.
What Brit at either 135 or 140 do you think could beat Stevenson? I rate Dalton Smith, but he's not beating Stevenson.
