    Tank by robbery. Shakur workrate and heart isn't high enough to completely shut out Tank, see De Los Santos

    Who knows. Neither guy throws much. One guy will be running and the other guy will be looking for openings.

    Both guys are not as nearly as good as they think they are.

    Tank is a much better fighter than Shakur but this is a bad style matchup for Davis. I can see Stevenson dancing out of harm's way over and over again while landing just enough punches to win rounds.

    Maybe a better fighter, not a better boxer

    Winnable by both guys, a Shakur win wouldn't surprise me but I probably favor Tanks 'aggression' and power here due to Shakurs mentality towards those traits in the past.

    Shakur would probably be shook and lose a running away decision. Neither of these guys are all that though.

    That depends... who's the primary promoter?

    Let's be honest, that's prolly the main deciding factor here :lol:

    Even before this fight I said Shakur wins, and remember I said this.

    It's gonna look very similar to Crawford vs Spence.

    I don’t think Shakur would be willing to stand with and push back Tank like Lamont did, nor would he have the workrate or power to keep Tank from walking him down.

    No way he wouldn't be lighting him up. Look at what Shakur did to Jamel Herring the guy who beat Lamont Roach something Tank couldn't do.

    Tank doesn't murder anyone any more.
