    Purse bid officially scheduled for Sept 5. If the fight do happen, I got Shakur making this fight look like mini Bud v Spence

    Frank Martin is a solid fighter but he isn't special like Stevenson is.

    Shakur gets a title shot after beating 1 can in the division? Mean while how many years has it been since WBC ordered Canelo to fight his mandatories?

    Great matchup, might be really dull though.

    Shakur seems to have adopted a bit of a killer mindset in that he doesn't want his fights to go the distances. Might put in a sneaky bet for a stoppage in his favour.

    Martin is decent but Shakur is special, nobody is beating him any time soon. Stevenson wins a wide UD or stops him in the last 3rd of the fight.

    His win over Valdez put him above Tank already

    Oh wait but he can't be special yet because he doesn't have a great resume LMAO.

    I've liked Frank Martin for a long time.

    He'll be a longshot to win, Stevenson is talented and he's the "house" fighter, which means Frank probably won't get a decision if it goes to the cards, so I'll go way out on a limb and take him by stoppage.

    Should be a good style matchup, regardless.

    I'm looking forward to it. Sounds like a solid lightweight fight. Probably more entertaining than a Stevenson-Haney fight would've been.
