    Well compared to the recent opposition of their peers, it's definitely one of the biggest fights amongst their younger generation. I'd argue that Devin v Teo would have been a bigger fight, but Shakur and Teo is not too far behind based on accomplishments and skill level.

    They are both elite fighters when they're on their A-game, but personally, I wouldn't have either of them close to the top 5 P4P. That's the benchmark for me. So Inoue/Nakatani, Bud/Canelo, Beterbiev/Bivol are the only real "superfights" based on size and ranking. I appreciate that they are 2 of the biggest US stars at the moment, and while it is a great fight, just because Turki is throwing money at them doesn't automatically make it a superfight in my eyes.

    So is this fight happening or not?
    Not gonna get excited until it's official but even then there are no guarantees with these young lads until they are actually in the ring LOL.

    Maybe but both of them seem like difficult ass clowns to deal with.
