This bad habit of pot shotting (not that I'm saying pot shots are bad) are product of elite boxers consistently facing mismatch oppositions. Most of them perhaps thought that they are Floyd Mayweather who loves to do this against anyone. But Floyd pot shots because of his brittle hands and the fact that he was simply that good, not so much because he's fights are completely mismatch. So, when these fighters are facing opponents that can fight back, they are having a hard time to adjust with this bad habits: Tank Davis vs Isaac Cruz, Teofimo Lopez vs George Kambosos, Devin Haney vs Lomachenko, to name a few.
@@raulratonmacias1377i mean.. the fight will sell way less if they put high level prospect against eachother in the early stage of their career. The wait is neccesary for build up, besides waiting for too long when no one cares anymore
This was his absolute BEST performance to date. If he fights like this every fight, he would be a PPV star. ⭐️ That walk down at the end was Crawford and Tank like….
@@greenhouse9781 lol facts I agree nobody can take that away from Tank but we know who the better pure boxer is skills wise only chance Tank got is with a lucky punch.
@@ShakAKA12 shakur can lose. its part of boxing. if he plans on fighting the hard fights, we will see him lose. its rare that people don't lose when entering competitive fights over and over again. which is why we see a lot of boxer in the top ducking, and cherry picking
People are so fickle. Look at the love Shakur was getting. Couple bad fights and now he’s a shitty boxer? I can’t stand boxing fans. Some of the worst fans in any sport.
Herring came out strong for a southpaw but Shakur Stevenson is a young sharp shooter he young and got many more fights to come he still growing as a fighter both great fighters
I promise you if Shakur fought like this he wouldn’t get all the hate lol you can be entertaining and do the sweet science…Shakur showed that in this fight
Yeah, because Tank hasn't fought a live opponent since Jose Pedraza I.e since he won his only world title. Shakur Stevenson doesn't have a marquee win, but he's a legitimate 2 weight world champion, and Valdez and Herring are better than anybody Tank's fought the last few years.
Shakurs kinda sadistic lol. He probably could have loaded up and gotten Herring out of there easy but he was perfectly content to just carve him up for a few rounds. He beat the hell out of him.
@jayd7386, No he doesn't, everyone knows that's his only weakness. He can KO people by accumulation, but he's no hard puncher, if he ever fights Tank he's getting KO'd, Tank will eventually catch him with something and drop him, Shakur won't ba able to keep him off of him.
@@marilubarrera3582im a tank fan heavy but u trippin Shakur got power not knockout power tho Shakur skills make up for it tank and Shakur are both skilled tank only having power over Shakur that’s it boxing ability they kneck and kneck
@@luh_marc3202 You are making my point, they both about equal in skill, but Tank has 1 punch KO power, Shakur doesn't. Also Tank has great defense and a good chin, so he doesn't have to worry about being dropped by Shakur, while Shakur has to stay perfect for 12 rounds cause Tank only needs to catch him clean once and it's over.
@@luh_marc3202 So my oppinion is that the fight will be close but Tank will eventually catch him and stop him. It's a great fight non the less, both great fighters. Peace.
Im noticing a lot of comments like this, so your saying fighters like tank, Garcia, Haney and others don’t fight black fighters? And what’s the big deal of it
Early on shakur strategic use of his right hand really neutralized Herring. Instead of just trying to jab the face he would deliberately hit towards herrings left hand to make his actively stay on guard duty rather tham be offensive. Once that hand gets too preoccupied sharkur goes to work
I feel like Shakur and Devin are on the same level. With Devin being a little quicker and Shakur having a little more defense. I think they both lose to Tank. They don't have enough power, they can box the right way but when they get hit they gone feel it. They got pillow hands is what tank said
Helluva fighter Shakur Stevenson is 💪 stiff solid Jab, excellent reflexes, great footwork, sturdy balance, good power and snap on his punches, very good defensive fundamentals, and great boxing instincts. He's a future star at 135 and 140 lbs. I don't believe he'll get up to 147 lbs though. He could very well be the next undisputed champion at both lightweight and junior welterweight 🥊🥊🏆 7:44
It’s hilarious to me when I hear people say shakur can beat tank! I be wondering what do they be smoking… I say tank ko’s him around round 6. He’s gonna have to chase him the first 5 rounds.😂😂😂
The only way to truly find out is if they fight. None of them get hypothetical wins over anybody without actually beating them....not even Tank. If he's the best then he has prove it against them. It's never been other way
This is exactly why Devin Haney and his old man keep saying “we will fight when everything’s on the line” even tho they already have all the belts…… They know growing up Kur always abused him and Kur knows it too! 😂
The commentators meat ride so hard in the first round u cant even just watch the fight without the cheerleading , yk who gone win after the first round 💀🤷🏽♂️ijs
Bruh how much more punishment you want that guy to take? The ref is there to protect fighters even from themselves because real champions don’t quit the ref is protecting him from brain damage down the road. Props to the ref.
This may be off topic but man timothy bradley is a damn good analyst i know he was a pro but ge breaks it down quickly, concise and never over steps his co host

Exactly. The man stands in the middle of the ring and doesn’t get hit. His last fight he was hurt and didn’t want to pull out the fight

It’s rare to see fighters throw combinations nowadays, It’s very refreshing to see Shakur do it against top level fighters.

good thing shakur's not white with that analogy lmao
Lmao I hope u black if not then u got black people fucked up

Shakur gotta be one of the best right now
Damn first round “he’s the better boxer “ 😭 commentators can be ruthless sometimes lol
Shakkur stevenvon vs devin haney i wanna see they both greats

Shakur has that mean attitude that you can't teach, like Tyson.
He destroyed that man🔥🔥🔥

He not doing that at 135 Too many Killers there at 130 he was fighting punching bags
The announcer is a bit bias.
He was enjoying himself in there
Agreed 😝
Sadistic is not the right word. And if you are not a previous boxer or retired boxers,you should not be announcing period.
One of my favorite boxers and also one of the best boxers today. Looking forward to Stevenson vs Cruz.
Cruz would put him down 🤫
One thing i can say about Shakur is he definitely has power

Shakur is a super PPv boxer Periiiood.
Black american bloold
3 seconds into the fight “I don’t like what Jamel Herring is doing” nigga the fight just started 😂😂😂😂
Lol
This is probably the best Ref I ever seen 😂
if Shakur was able to fight at the pace Floyd did early on he'd be able to beat his records.
“Flawless Victory “
he is sharp like a knife, bro look at his movements, its like watching kyrie play basketball just pure skill.
My second favorite boxer next to Roy Jones Jr.
I Really feel like Tim Bradley is in side the Ring, he’s a tremendous Commentator 👍

💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 tired of hearing folks saying he’s mid
Crazy thing is he was probably cutting into his muscle to make 130. I think he'll have more power at 135.
HE HIT U GET OUT OF RANGE GET BACK INTO RANGE HIT U THEN GET OUT GOATED
Watching Shakur was like watching artwork too a Syphony💪🏾💪🏾🎶🎶
Shakur Stevenson that boy reminds me of Ali the moves the way he moves the way he fights he's going to be one of the great ones
Shakur is the real lightweight CHAMP.

where was this energy when shakira fought santos lmfao 😂
Competition like this and y’all think he’s on Tank or Haneys level
I like the analysis team of Bradley and Ward.. It's nice to hear 2 former fighters who aren't linguisticly challenged.
Shakur already outboxed tank in sparring he did get hurt but he still outboxed him
somehow tank is still underrated
This is what happens when a C class fighter fights an A class fighter. A systematic distribution.
Best performance
I enjoy watching Shak Stevenson ..I don't scroll on next video...my eyes are glued on every round ...Shakur your the man... mwah...hehehe

Once Stevenson goes up to 135, it’s over. Even Gervonta better move his ass up to 140.
Shakur seemed to gas a bit in the later round.. anyone else notice that? Dominate performance tho

Powerful and focused fighter, I believe he will be another great. Can't wait to see how he continues to grow in the future.
Looks like they paid for his Ring time and no he can't run with King Tank
