Shakura Stevenson’s talent is a curse? Malignaggi suggests reducing the remuneration needed to land William Zepeda and overcome lightweight avoidance

Paulie Malignaggi says that Shakur Stevenson may need to lower his salary by offering part of his purse to lure the ephemeral WBC champion, William Zepeda to fight him. He believes that Shakur (23-0, 11 KO) is avoided by the best guys at the age of 135 because he is so good.

Remuneration proposal

To force these fighters, such as Zepeda (33-0, 27 KO) to fight him, he will have to give up his purse. Malignaggi believes that Shakur’s victory over Zepeda will “force” greater fighting with Gervont Davis.

It is more likely that it will work in the opposite. The impressive victory of Stevenson over Zepeda will forever close the door to the fight with Tank Davis, especially if Shakur runs all night with the Mexican lethargic.

He will have to move around the ring throughout the fight, because if he stands and fights with Zepeda, he will be chewed. Tevin Farmer consumed many penalties in the first six rounds of his last fight with Zepeda, and the only reason he was not detained is that he has a perfect chin.

Shakura promoter, Eddie Hearn, has money to invest in him if he wants to exploit some of his company’s cake to get Zepeda. For a popular warrior, such as Zepeda, it will be pricey. Everything Hearn must offer Zepeda $ 5 millionHe will agree and then hopes that Shakur will make his part without winning. Hearn is scanty and tight, it will cause Stevenson to exist in the shade as long as he stays in the match.

If he is booed by fans, as if he was against Edwin de Los Santos and Jeremiah Nakathlia, he can forget about Tank.

Saudi money has disappeared

The money that according to Shakur will be from the Saudis is no longer after his last fight with Josh Padley on February 22 in Riyadh. Some fans believe that Saudis gave up Stevenson after this terrible performance against the part -time boxer Padley, who fought with a very tedious fight.

“It’s a bit disappointing in which Shakur was in this business. I feel that he is a great warrior,” said Paulie Malignaggi to WarriorSpeaking of how Shakur Stevenson was unable to get the fights he wanted. “It is probably the best lightweight in the world.”

Shakur did not defeat anyone in a slight importance to get the recognition that Malignaggi was overwhelming on him. Stevenson’s fight with Edwin de Los Santos should be a draw or victory for De los Santos. The judges gave it to Shakur, but many fans believe that it was because of his popularity. He shouldn’t lose.

In addition, Shakura’s victories were at a low level of players: Josh Padley [the electrician]An inactive Artem Harutynaan, who took a loss, and little -known Shuichiro Yoshino.

Avoidance

“Perhaps a situation in which he may need a little reduction in salary to get these great fights and try to determine his performance,” said Malignaggi. “It sucks, I know. Only in boxing you can be so good that you are not avoided. No other sport does it.”

It is unlikely that this match does not happen, unless Shakur does not dominate the majority of his purse so that William Zepeda is worth fighting with him. Golden Boy and Zepeda apparently saw Shakura’s fight with de los Santos and will know after watching this competition that the winning decision against him would be impossible.

If the judges give Shakur rounds for landing lightweight blows, holding and running, Zepeda will not have a chance to win. In order for Zepeda to have a chance, the fight would have to be staged on a neutral territory in Mexico.

“When you are so good, they have to go through you to be the best, or they can’t be the best. In boxing you can be so good that sometimes you are avoided if you are not in the right situation and everyone plays the ball without you,” said Malignaggi.

The problem is that Shakur did not show that he is “so good” for top -class fighters at the age of 135 to want to fight him. He showed that he is a runner, a tedious runner and is regularly booed when he stands in the face of the opposition with any pop in their blows. It is not popular and many lightweight years from the implementation of PPV status.

Basically, he is known for its activities in social media on the current promoter X. Shakur, Eddie Hearn, could not be transformed into a star and did not invested the cake so as not to get the fight yet to become a home brand, fighting with William Zepeda and Gervont Davis.

Stevenson’s counseling

“It’s crazy for me because I think Shakur is a lightweight premium world in a lightweight division that has good fighters,” said Malignaggi. “I don’t know what the answer is. Maybe take some cut to try to fight Zepeda and then dominate Zeda. This will force more fights in this way, because then you will dominate a guy like Zepeda.

“I don’t know anymore. It’s such a stupid business. There is a crazy sum of money in it. It moves in a strange way. People play favorite. There is a lot of politics because there is something if there is a lot of money, but it gets so frustrating,” said Malignaggi.

I have to win for a rematch: Can Devin Haney be overcome by Jose Ramirez, despite the other questions about his condition?

Image: Must-Win for the Rematch: Can Devin Haney Overcome Jose Ramirez Despite Lingering Questions About His Condition?

Bill Haney insists that Devin Haney continues to function on all eight cylinders mentally after beating he took against Ryan Garcia last year.

In a heated seat

Asked if Devin is fine, Bill talked about “aura” Devotes himself. It seemed that the question was evading, in general, talking about Mumbo-Jumbo, which did not make sense.

The way he danced around the topic gave the impression that he was in a heated place and the reflector was interrogated. He did not seem willing to answer the questions.

Fans want to know if Haney is still physically present and will cope with another fight on May 2 against the perilous Jose Ramirez at Times Square, Up-to-date York. If Devin is not right, it will not last long against Ramirez. Bill knows that Haney has to win this fight to get a rematch with Ryan in October. Loss here means that the rematch will not happen.

The former WBC and WBO champion 140-lb Ramirez (29-2, 19 KO) has already explained that he would swing for fences. He will check if Haney can still hit.

“Being an Olympian, a united champion and has a nice left hook,” said Bill Haney Cigar conversation About Devin Haney returns from a long dismissal with the Olympian in 2012 and the former WBC champion and WBO Delicate Welter Wytter, Jose Ramirez on May 2.

In other words, Bill chose Ramirez to return his opponent Haney. Of course, he could not choose the ass, because Devin is well paid by Turks for a fatal fury card on May 2. Bill probably couldn’t choose any lower than Ramirez so that Turki would agree. It would be fascinating if Gary Antuanne Russell was chosen as an opponent of Haney on the card on May 2. But if he was chosen, it would be too risky because Haney would lose, and this would ruin a rematch with Ryan.

“So why not come back with the same appearance and prepare for this final match, which must happen that they do not want to happen,” Bill said, suggesting that Ryan Garcia did not want a rematch with Haney. “Both vocally, whether it was an Oscar [De La Hoya]Whether it was Ryan, they said it wouldn’t happen. Of course, we made it happen. “

Ryan would take a rematch with Haney. He didn’t try to avoid fighting because why would he have won so easily at the start? Kingry wanted Haney to abandon the lawsuit before he agreed to the rematch.

“You needed a lot of things. I always want to greet Devin for being juvenile, 26 years vintage and he was always able to cope with his business in the right way,” said Bill. “Choosing a guy does not mean that you choose cherries like some of other fighters because you can gather badly.”

Some say that most Haneya’s professional fights are cherry feathers. The only ones that did not remind you that they were against Ryan and Vasily Lomachenko. Haney captured his two -level titles against George Cambosos and Regis Prograis. This is not quite a murderer’s government.

“When you talk about a lawsuit. The reason why it is enlarged is that it is Devin,” said Bill. “They played filthy, saying that nobody wanted to see the fight [rematch]. We negotiated, if they enter the ring, there is no lawsuit, “Bill said about how Devina negotiated, if Ryan Garcia agreed to the rematch.

Bill still doesn’t understand why fans baked Haney after their lawsuit. The reason why Haney criticized fans had nothing to do with personal reluctance to him. This is because it was a sign of weakness, and fans cannot respect it.

Bill “Aura”

“Devin is the most qualified warrior in boxing when the pitch is at the level. He is something special,” said Bill. “I don’t need any ped. I don’t need it. Talk to the fans about the aura he has. If you can enter the person and feel good with them, you know that their aura is intact.

“You know that their *** is hetero,” said Bill, asked if Haney was fine mentally after the beating he took against Ryan Garcia last April 20. “I feel that he is hungry, determined and already achieved a 26-year-old guy,” Bill said, insisting that Devin is still convincing after beating.

Coach Jose Ramirez, Robert Garcia, says that the band Devin Haney wants the weight to enhance from 144 to 147 in the Battle of the co-caused Haney-Mamirez on the Fatal Fury card on May 2 on Times Square in Modern York.

Robert says that everything is fine with their request and believes that additional weight will benefit Ramirez (29-2, 18 KO), which makes him hit him more. The former WBC champion and WBO Lightweight Wytreterwaight Ramirez looks noticeably stronger in the training camp for this fight, hitting the knockout power that could give Haney (31-0, 15 KO).

Avoiding cutting weight

It is not surprising that 26-year-old Haney wants to enhance weight to the welterweight limit in 147, because with its hydration until the mid-1960s, it is a great weight for him. Devin should have been fighting in a welterweight or younger weight of the middle years ago with his huge frame.

When Ryan Garcia, Ryan Garcia, was threatened on May 2, Devin cannot afford less than 100%, looking like a tired weight and physically exhausted during a competition with the Olympian in the USA Ramirez in 2012.

Haney vs. Ramirez is a joint fight on the Ryan Garcia vs. card Rolando “Rolly” Romero on May 2. The event will be shown live in Dazn PPV.

“Jose is motivated when he hears how the Mexicans support him. Ramirez has signed his contract at 144, but now I believe that they are asking at 147, which is fine with us,” said coach Robert Garcia KO Artist Sport About Devin Haney’s team, who wants the scale to be tossed to the welterweight limit by 147 for fighting Jose Ramirez on May 2 at Times Square, Modern York.

The 32 -year -old Ramirez will be like a bull inside the ring, following Haney, he wants to end when Kingry started last year on April 20 at the Barclays Center, Brooklyn, Modern York. Ryan did not finish Haney because of endurance problems, but Ramirez has excellent cardio and will continue to pour it through the whole fight. If he gets into trouble, he will end him.

Devin holding pattern

Of course, coach Robert Garcia will work on the strategy for Ramirez to deal with Haney’s continuous holding. Devin used without a break, which with Ryan refrained from knocking out in the seventh round. If Ryan knew how to effectively neutralize this tactics, he would stop Haney in this round.

“He is a elevated guy and he has been 140 for so many years. I think that at the age of 147 he will be much stronger,” said coach Robert about Ramirez. “You don’t have to cut these last seven pounds, his confidence and his body will be so comfortable that he will come out and the swing.

“I think it will bring benefits Jose. Devin Haney will also be comfortable, because he is also a gigantic boy,” said Robert Garcia about Ramirez, who would benefit more than Haney from weight growth.

Usyk vs Dubois 2 reports that “not respected media”

Published

on

Oleksandr Usyk heavy egis Klimas

Manager Oleksandr Usyk, Egis Klimas, dropped early reports about a rematch agreement with Daniel Dubois this summer.

Klimas started to social media after the shops began to lead the story of Usyk vs. Dubois II, which is close to the completed contract for the Wembley stadium. World Boxing News focused on the repercussions of this contract for the compulsory heavyweight master and WBO Joseph Parker.

WBO ordered Parker in a queue and gave Usyk thirty days to negotiate last month. This term was to end soon, when President Gustavo Olivieri told the World Boxing News that the extension was awarded to a potential return of Uyk vs Dubois.

“Please pay attention to the current facts about the WBO heavyweight department,” said Olivieri Worldboxingnews.com.

“There is a petition to consider the Utyt vs. Dubois permit before the championship committee [undisputed heavyweight championship] unification to have priority over the mandatory [Parker]. That is why there is no official ruling in this case yet.

“After making the official decision of the Committee, we will formally announce it,” he added.

These are the facts that we currently know. However, when Klimas heard the report, he dropped the attempts to be the first news.

“If you know the rules and everyone knows the rules, promoters will first announce their fights and after the media will do their work, not the other way around.

“Have you seen other ads from promoters or teams? Except for people who are not respected media who are trying to bring hats in front of everyone,” Klimas said.

Mark Robinson

Usyk vs. Dubois 2 has always been on the table – it is not discussed. What annoyed Klimas was time and anticipation of history. It cannot be denied that Usyk would like to recover the title of IBF, which he never lost in the ring and become a two -time heavyweight champion.

The mandatory pretender Parker wants to fight for the title and won him with victory over Deontay Wilder, Zhilei Zhang and Martin Bakole. Whether he wants to move to the side is another completely discussed matter.

Risking his place with another fight may prove to be the Parker’s violar, which has been fighting for regaining the world title for seven years.

WBN believes that the mandatory status of Parker is not set in stone. The 33-year-old may be willing to wait if the contract is appropriate so that he can fight for the unquestioned heavyweight title until December.

A place on four lanes WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO Undercard may be enough to sweeten the contract.
