    Both around the same age.

    Ennis seems to be the better athlete

    Shakur seems to be more defensively responsible.

    Who is the more talented fighter

    Also is this the modern day Roy Jones and Floyd Mayweather

    Shakur, Ennis might end up looking better in the next few years buts that's because welterweight is about to become a wasteland.

    Shakur and it's not even close.

    Ennis is like many of the good amateurs that come out of the US system, great athletes with sound fundamentals. But for every Shakur there's more guys like Chris Colbert. Yeah they are fast, may hit hard but talent alone doesn't get you to the top, skills and will do.

    Stevenson skill wise is levels and I mean many levels above Ennis. Ennis is basic in comparison. Ennis doesn't even know how to counter punch, he relies on his physical skills far more than Shakur who's far more technical and crafty.
