TR: Ash-Shakur Nafi-Shahid Stevenson vs. Félix Caraballo & Guido Vianello vs. Donald Haynesworth RBR

He looks on-form, and could still make good on his amateur promise - but I feel like the stigma of losing in his pro debut is going to be something he carries for several more fights at least. Even if the fans regain confidence in him, those are demons he's going to struggle with...to be hyped up like that and blow it right outta the gate....takes a lot of mental fortitude to come back from that. Let's see how Robeisy does on that journey. So far, top marks.

 

Osuna stirring the pot, attempting to coax a call-out from Ramírez Carrazana of Stevenson (Robeisy is the last man to beat Shakur, in the amateurs)

 

mayne... boxing been back... but you all saw fit to leave me talking to myself like tom hanks in castaway through both of these last week:

that's okay though. i ain't mad. (much)

 

man, tim getting choked up. that's seriously rough stuff talking with a kid that young.

 

that yes, and more so (my takeaway) was the fact that he needed to share this stark reality with his very young son, and basically ruin his innocence by having the "some people are going to hate you and wish violence upon you for no reason other than what color we are" conversation probably sooner than he wanted to.

idk that it was implied that racist cops were assuming bradley stole the car necessarily so much as them being jealous/enraged that an 'uppity one' had achieved material status above what they consider their station.
