    If Ryan so trash why doesn't Shakur fight him and get a big bag especially since he cares about money so much. Ryan might be a bad style match up for shakur. Btw I'm not saying Ryan a A level fighter but I think he gives Shakur problems

    They're not even in the same division and I doubt Garcia would go down to 135 again after the beating Tank put on him.

    If it happened, Stevenson would school him worse than Tank did. Horrible style match up for Garcia again. Shakur like Tank is a counter puncher and Garcia only knows how to lead, we saw how that style match up failed Garcia last time, he'd play right into Shakur's counter punching style.

    I also think Shakur is looking at more legitimate fighters like Loma and Haney not fringe contenders like Garcia.

    There are definitely guys at 130 who hit harder than Shakur, but he managed to put Valdez Jr on the canvas twice. Which is two more times than Navarrette managed to do if you are keeping score.

    So he's not exactly Chris Colbert, either.

    Are you saying Navarrete would beat Shakur 10-2 on the cards?

    I can definitely see Navarrete's rangey jab being a big problem for Shakur. Would be a big problem for SS to get within range to set up counters. Tough fight for SS.

    I don’t buy that he’s ducking him but good question! Why not take the well-deserved payday??

    Lmao is it even possible to duck Garcia? The guy has no leverage, isn't a mandatory challenger and is coming off a ko loss.

    Stevenson on the other hand is a former unified world champion, unbeaten and on the cusp of being p4p rated.

    Why? You think SS beats Navarrete easily? Because I don't think he does and I actually give Navarrete an edge in this fight.

    So you need power to be a great fighter? Funny, there’s been a lot of great fighters who didn’t have power. Casual.
