Shakur Stevenson enters my pound for pound top 10!

the referee should have stopped Shakur from using is his right glove in front of Valdez face. Shakur used it throughout the fight. The referee just told him " don't do that" throughout the fight. And it wasn't until the 12th round that Shakur was warned. I noticed that when the referee told him not to do it, Valdez had a little more success in getting inside and delivering more punches. But then Shakur got back to it because that was an effective way to keep Valdez at bay. However, I think Valdez was not able to adjust and Shakur is the clear winner and the better boxer.

 

If Crawford can't teach him to throw a hook he'll never find that gear. He's great on the line, and usually wins his engagements, he just can't add power to his shots. Unluckily for him and us, he's small, so he won't be fighting Haney, Garcia, Teofimo. Maybe Tank tho.

 

You get away with what you get away as you said he was just too good for Valdez.

 

It's tricky to make a list right now because there are a few standouts and 25 others who have one good win or two decent wins since 2020.

I think we should move to a P4P top 5 until another 5 can differentiate themselves.

 

Where is he on your list

 

If Broner took his craft seriously, he could've been an atg 140lb.
