    Stevenson didn’t even want to touch gloves after the fight. Showing signs of a very frustrated fighter. Not a good showing. And not because he didn’t get a stoppage.

    7-5 Stevenson. Completely underwhelming performance against opposition that should have been an easy nights work. I don’t rate him but something still seemed off for Stevenson tonight. Even his corner were a shambles

    ESPN are hands down the worst, most biased and despicable commentary team in the world and that's really saying something because the competition is very stiff.

    If you're a foreigner who wins 4 rounds they give you 0. If you win 5 they'll give you 1.

    They will ignore all your good work and hoop and holler every time their boy lands a shot


    I'm not arguing AH won but he won at least 4 rounds and the fact they had it 3-1 to Shakur after 4 who did nothing in the first 3 rounds and was getting hit with thumping jabs and straight rights to the body is comical

    It's easy for them to create a fake narrative if you only acknowledge and count the shots of the fighter they want to win and they're the worst out there

    No, definitely not a Master Class. Only Master Class we've seen tonight was from Mr. Mason. Davis got into a bit of a rough house. Shaq made the mistake of planting his feet when he didn't need to and allowed his opponent to close in with that wild hook. Shakur didn't provide enough offense to really push campaign of being "that Guy" in the division.

    116 - 112 is the correct score. The other judges just showed for a payday and was looking at watch to see when they get that compilatory call girl after fight

    Shakur much like Haney/Teo showing they were just weight bullies at their best. Moving up they've all looked mid and ordinary. Haney and Teo just caught the ghosts of Taylor/Rougarou.

    Most American fighters these days are mid without a massive weight cut.

    Tank for all his faults and he did put rehydration clauses on Ryan and Barrios he's been by far most impressive in weight jumps.

    I fully agree with Serge, this was much closer than described. The commentators always choose to worship one guy and totally dismiss the other,
