    Is Shakur in the right or is he not taking accountability of how his career is being handled?

    hes right about complaining, but social media aint the way to resolve that. thats family business. like it or not, you married them...in writing. go bark in their ear.
    as far as getting what he deserves, i dont think he is. hes ready for the top levels. if he takes a loss, so what? hes a developing youngster finding out where hes lacking, if hes lacking. get him the fights. im sure you can make the fights without losing money, you greedy *******s.

    Shakur better watch that mouth of his because, going on 100 y/o or not, trust me OG Bob will roll up on his ass in Newark and slap him a brand new face. OG Bob is the feistiest fossil I've ever seen and he's about that life 24/7.

    “They use you until they can’t use you no more”.

    What does being black have to do with that, lol? Especially in boxing.

    Firstly, he desperately needs to take some remedial English classes. There is no excuse for not being able to communicate in proper English.
    Secondly, there is absolutely no evidence Top Rank does not promote its black fighters. Using the race card is indicative of limited intellectual capacity.
    Thirdly, his last fight took the air out of his balloon somewhat as it was a terribly boring affair watching him run in fear of a at best B level opponent.
    Fourthly, he is extremely talented but still very young. Perhaps he’s getting a taste of how fighters like GGG and Loma were avoided in their primes.
    Has he called out any other fighters besides a 36 year old Loma? I haven’t heard him call out Wahid, or Teofimo, or any of the other young up and comers….
