    Everything you stated that he needs to learn how to do he is already doing it and doing it well.

    According to Steve Kim on his most recent podcast of The Next Round, he said he had it on very good authority from a very reliable source that Mayweather and Davis are not on good terms, and have not been on speaking terms for quite some time. And that 19 year old Olympic Sliver Medalist Shakur Stevenson who is a good friend of Davis is not a big fan of Floyd's either. Apparently Davis isn't speaking to Floyd because he feels Floyd spent more time promoting his new strip club, his possible fight with McGregor and basically just talking about himself and how he's TBE, then actually promoting Davis' first title fight.

    I think it's safe to say Stevenson wont be flocking to TMT.

    I thought Stevenson has already signed with Andre Ward?
    I believe Steve as far as I can throw an elephant.
    Last weekend proved him wrong.

    You are entitled to your own opinion. I can give you that. Will not argue.

    Is he, I was not aware of that. I thought Floyd was pursuing him trying to sign him after the Olympics, when Floyd called Shakur "the next Floyd Mayweather."

    Stevenson has always looked up to Andre Ward and says hes signed with his idol under Prince and Ward.
    I'm not clear if Ward has started his own Promotion company, but it seems Roc Nation is not involved since they weren't mentioned in the press release.
    I'm sure Ward has observed Cotto and how well he has managed Cotto Promotions alongside his Roc Nation contract and perhaps wants to do the same.
    If so, signing Stevenson is a hell of a start.
