    We'll see if Shakur is all gym hype or not.

    At least Teo has a couple huge wins on his resume, Shakur hasn't done much yet

    Currently listening to the press conference and both Lopez are so cringe. Hope Shakur shuts them both up

    Teo's vulnerability gets dragged into the light, showcasing Shakur's dominance, or we're cursed to witness Teo's predictable nonsense for another tour

    This match up is going to create more problems for Teo than what some realize. He's extremely talented but his IQ doesn't allow him to adjust to the heat fluidly when plan A isn't going as planned.

    I don't think it's going to be a one-sided fight, but I do think it will be unquestionable on who the victor is at the end of this bout. As much as people complain about Shakur's style and how 'boring' it is.....It's effective and hard to crack for most opponents. I predict he'll be well in control of the fight by the 6/7th round.

    Much bigger fan of Teo, but can't help but think Shakur will get this. Better ring IQ IMO.

    Teofimo Lopez already trying hard to get under Shakur’s skin by saying some weird stuff.

    I hope Teo wins if for nothing else than the sheer entertainment value of his unpredictable, erratic public comments.

    The dude just isn't wrapped that tight.

    A very interesting matchup. I see Stevenson as the favorite but he'll have to be careful. Lopez is a great boxer and has been fighting at super lightweight for three years, while Shakur will be his first fight in the division. I hope there'll be a good undercard. We already have several interesting fights lined up in 2026, which is great.
