    I think Yoshino is a tough fighter, but its hard for me to pick him over the talented Stevenson. I think Stevenson will go through some rough spots, but ultimately Shakur has too much talent to lose to Yoshino. Im picking Stevenson by comftorable UD.

    If Stevenson genuinely is an elite fighter, he should win without too much trouble in a competitive but clear decision. If he's anything other than elite, it could get scary for him. I like this fight because it will tell us something about Stevenson, even if it isn't a true legacy type bout.

    Probably a 9-3 8-4 type of fight for Shakur here. I don't expect a clinic.

    Yoshino has a big punch and he might last the distance. I don't think he has the skills to compete with someone like Shakur and he may end up getting ouboxed down the stretch. Would like to see him give Shakur a good fight though.

    A big one, I wouldn't be shocked in the least if he pulls the upset and wins by KO. He battered both Ito and Nakatani senseless, giving him a more impressive win over the later than both Lomachenko and especially Lopez, who should've lost his match against Nakatani. If Shakur can't get his respect, he's ****ed.

    This would be the craziest upset you called. That’s how highly I rate Shakur. Haney isn’t the next money may, it’s Shakur.

    Not really, a featherfist is moving up a division to take on in his debut a massive puncher who might just be the sleeper of the division, who fights like the ****ing Terminator.:lol:

    Subriel Matias has something to say about that. :sisi1

    Now that's a fight I would like to see down the road if Yoshino moves up in weight at some point and also manages to hold his own and make it tough for Shakur win or lose.

    Yoshino is going to get battered...12 zip or if Shakur goes for it i can see a stoppage...just a huge gap in skill.

    I think small, agile defensively responsible guys are all wrong for Yoshino. I believe Yoshino would have real chances vs guys like Haney or Tank, but Shakur is all wrong for him.
