Keith Thurman says Shakur Stevenson lacks the names on his weak resume to deserve a struggle towards Gervonta Davis. Thurman states that the “resume isn’t there” for WBC light-weight champion Shakur (23-0, 11 KOs) even to think about him as an opponent for Tank Davis.
Keith notes that the media wish to see Shakur and Tank struggle, however he doesn’t know why. Thurman views that as “fantasy football” as a result of Stevenson hasn’t been by the fireplace but. He doesn’t have even one canine on his resume, to the place one may say he’s confirmed himself.
Shakur’s Wins
– Edwin De Los Santos: Boo-filled struggle of working– Jamel Herring: 35– Oscar Valdez: Washed up– Artem Harutyunyan: Gentle-hitter coming off loss– Josh Padley: Electrician– Joet Gonzalez: Fringe contender
The Product
Thurman is true. Shakur is an instance of how promoters fastidiously maneuver fighters, retaining them away from dangerous opposition to manufacture a product with the objective of 1 massive cash-out.
As soon as they get uncovered in a blowout loss, the promoters both dump them or put them by a rebuild towards the identical lesser opposition to inflate their resume for one more cash-out. It’s all trickery to idiot the general public, promoting a lemon to naive followers with no vital considering means.
The slick promoters are making a product once they feed weak opposition to fighters like Shakur Stevenson, constructing a resume in hopes of getting that one massive payoff struggle towards stars like Gervonta Davis to make it worthwhile signing him.
“I still don’t think Shakur has beaten people like Tank. Shakur hasn’t even been in with Isaac Cruz. I get it on some boxing level stuff, but I really don’t get it,” stated Keith Thurman to Fighthype, criticizing Shakur Stevenson as being underequipped for a struggle towards Gervonta Davis.
Who’s He Fought?
Shakur hasn’t crushed killers like Andy Cruz, Raymond Muratalla, Abdullah Mason, Ernesto Mercado, or William Zepeda. Have you ever ever puzzled why he’s not been matched towards any of these fighters? It’s apparent. Stevenson’s promoters are defending him to ramp him up for a giant payday that he doesn’t deserve, and the media are too dense to know what’s taking place.
“Do something. What have you done? Who have you fought? Who have you beaten? Tank has got names,” stated Thurman. “He’s been in the fire. I don’t think Shakur has been in the fire. I think his matchmaking has been way weaker than just resumes. People see his skills. I get it, but word on the street is that boy has been slapped.”
$200 Million?
I completely agree with Thurman. Somebody slapped the style out of Shakur’s mouth, and that’s why he’s hounding Gervonta Davis 24/7, pushing him for a struggle like his life relied on it. Why isn’t Shakur calling out Mercado, Andy Cruz, Muratalla, Mason or Zepeda? How about his brother, Keyshawn Davis. Why not him? Shakur stated at the moment he needs $200 million for a struggle towards Keyshawn. What does that let you know?
“It’s actually arduous for boxers like that. He’s going to must field, field, field, field. Similar to the controversial Haney had with Ryan. Haney is a good boxer. Shakur is sweet however is he the nicest? If you wish to discover out if he’s the nicest, you’ve bought to place him in with anyone that drops bombs like isis. You deal with them bombs, then let’s see.
“Undergo some canine. Undergo a couple of good names on the checklist. He’s [Shakur] small. I don’t suppose him and Rolly [would work]. Rolly is just too massive. The resumes not there. I don’t ever take into consideration him and Tank. You guys [the media] do, however I don’t know why. It’s like some fantasy soccer bull s***. I don’t suppose it’s actual.
“I don’t think he’s done a lot. Just one. Put one on the resume. I would like two. Two good names on the resume before stepping to Tank,” stated Thurman about desirous to see Shakur tackle two good fighters to show himself earlier than going through Tank Davis.
