Keith Thurman explodes with Shakura Stevenson’s “delicate CV”, says that he is not worthy of the fight of Gervont Davis: “He did not go through the fire”
Keith Thurman says Shakur Stevenson has no names in his delicate CV to deserve to fight Gervont Davis. Thurman states that “CV is not there“For the WBC Lightweight Shakur master (23-0, 11 KO) he even considers him an opponent Tank Davis.
Keith notes that the media wants to see Shakur and the tank are fighting, but he doesn’t know why. Thurman perceives the fact that as “fantasy football” because Stevenson has not yet passed through the fire. There is not even one dog in his CV, where you can say that he proved himself.
Shakura’s victory
-Dwin de los Santos: Filled Boo Struggle of Running – Jamel Herring: 35 – Oscar Valdez: Washed -Artem Harutyunyan: Featherlight-Hitter who is moving away from the loss – Josh Padley: Electrician – Joet Gonzalez: Fringe Contender
Product
Thurman is right. Shakur is an example of how promoters carefully maneuver fighters, holding them away from risky opposition to produce the product with the purpose one vast withdrawal.
When they are revealed in losses, they either drop them or have a reconstruction against the same smaller opposition to fill their CV for another payment. This is all a fraud to deceive public opinion by selling lemon to naive fans without critical thinking.
Frying promoters form a product when they feed destitute opposition to fighters such as Shakur Stevenson, building a CV in the hope that it will receive one large fight with stars such as Gervonta Davis, so that it is worth signing.
“I still don’t think Shakur beat people like Tank. Shakur wasn’t even in Isaac Cruz. I get it at some things at the boxing level, but I don’t really understand it, “said Keith Thurman WarriorCriticating Shakur Stevenson as unable to fight Gervont Davis.
Who was he fighting?
Shakur did not defeat the killers such as Andy Cruz, Raymond Muratalla, Abdullah Mason, Ernesto Mercado or William Zepeda. Have you ever wondered why it wasn’t adapted to any of these fighters? It’s obvious. Stevenson promoters protect him to raise him to a great payment, which he does not deserve, and the media are too dense to know what is going on.
“Do something. What did you do Who did you fight? Who did you overcome? Tank has names – said Thurman. “He was on fire. I don’t think Shakur is on fire. I think his reserves were much weaker than simply resumed. People see his skills. I understand, but on the street it is that the boy was hit. “
$ 200 million?
I completely agree with Thurman. Someone threw the taste out of Shakur’s mouth and therefore persecutes Gervont Davis 24/7, pushing him to fight like his life. Why does Shakur not call Mercado, Andy Cruz, Muratalla, Mason or Zepeda? Or maybe his brother, Keyshawn Davis. Why not him? Shakur said today that he wants $ 200 million to fight Keyshawn. What does this tell you?
“It’s really complex for such boxers. There will be a box, a box, a box, a box. Like the controversial Haney with Ryan. Haney is a great boxer. Shakur is nice, but is he the nicest? If you want to find out if it is the nicest, you must put it with someone who drops bombs, such as ISIS. You deal with them bombs, and then let’s see.
“Go through some dogs. Browse some good names on the list. He is [Shakur] tiny. I don’t think he and roll [would work]. Rolly is too large. There is no CV. I never think about him and the tank. You guys [the media] Do, but I don’t know why. It’s like some fantastic football bull ***. I don’t think it is true.
“I don’t think he does a lot. Only one. Place one on your CV. I would like two. Two good names in the CV before entering Tank, “said Thurman about the fact that Shakur will face two good fighters who will prove themselves before they faced Tank Davis.
Roy Jones Jr has named one fighter as the “new Canelo” and, by extension, considers them to be the ‘face of boxing’.
Some might argue that Canelo Alvarez remains boxing’s biggest commercial star but, with the 36-year-old approaching retirement, the sport is surely crying out for another mainstream attraction to take his place.
It is also unusual for the four-division world champion that, by the end of this year, he will not have fought on Cinco de Mayo or Mexican Independence Day weekend.
Instead, occupying the latter date earlier this month was Ryan Garciawho retained his WBC world title with a second-round stoppage of Conor Benn, taking his record to 21 knockouts from 26 victories, with just two defeats.
In doing so, the 28-year-old has kept himself in the mix for unification matches with Teofimo Lopez and Devin Haney but, until such fights materialise, he seems eager to remain active and defend his welterweight belt.
As far as a next opponent goes, Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz has been mentioned as a possible option following his emphatic sixth-round knockout of Nestor Bravo last weekendand it seems that pound-for-pound legend Jones would enjoy that clash.
That is because Jones has told All The Smoke Boxing that Garcia-Cruz is a stylistically similar matchup to Muhammad Ali-Joe Frazier.
“Ryan is the new Canelo – everybody wants to see Ryan.
“[Cruz] has the style – the perfect style – that you want to see against Ryan. Ryan’s a classic boxer-puncher; Pitbull is a brawler-puncher. That’s Ali and Frazier, almost.
“Who would not, on planet Earth, want to see that fight?”
“Ryan is the new Canelo!”

While Cruz is, indeed, a tenacious brawler-puncher, the 5ft 4in super-lightweight would be contending with a glaring size disadvantage if he moves up to 147lbs and faces Garcia.
A pair of German prospects hope to follow in the footsteps of Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko, who became the first brothers to simultaneously reign as world heavyweight champions.
The two highly-decorated Ukrainians achieved this feat between 2008 and 2013, after Vitali reclaimed his WBC title by dethroning Samuel Peter with an eighth-round finish.
‘Dr. Ironfist’ would then retire from the sport and pursue his political career, while Wladimir became the longest-reigning world heavyweight champion in history before losing to Tyson Fury in 2015.
While holding all four major titles between them, though, the Klitschko brothers established themselves as a dominant force and became mainstream celebrities in Germany.
Since then, the German boxing scene has struggled to generate such widespread attention but, now, over a decade later, Ismet Ademi (24) and Endrit Ademi (21) are bidding to emulate the Klitschko duo.
With seven national titles between them, the pair turned professional earlier this year and caught the eye of several promoters in the UK and US.
It can now be revealed, however, that the Ademi brothers have inked multi-year deals with Ringside Zone, who considers itself the leading boxing promotional outfit in Germany.
With Ismet returning to action on October 10, the 1-0 (1 KO) prospect explained that he and younger brother Endrit, 2-0 (2 KOs), would rather establish themselves on home soil than chase opportunities overseas.
“My brother and I had massive offers from abroad, but Germany is our home and this is where we want to build our legacy.
“Ringside Zone has already shown they can put German fighters in world title fights, and that mattered to us. We made a promise to each other years ago that we would become world champions together – signing here is another step toward keeping it.”
With lofty plans for the future, the Ademi brothers make for intriguing additions to the heavyweight scene as they aim to eventually reach world level and reach the heights that the Klitschko brothers once did.
Muhammad Ali once revealed who he believed to be the pound-for-pound greatest fighter of all time.
Ali is arguably the biggest name to ever grace boxing, becoming a global cultural figure not just for what he accomplished inside of the ring, but also for his activism efforts outside of it.
He was a three-time world heavyweight champion, and claimed wins in a number of epic battles, including the ‘Rumble In The Jungle’ against George Foremanand the ‘Thrilla In Manila’ against Joe Frazier.
Ali finished with a record of 56 wins from his 61 professional bouts, and despite all of his success, Ali conceded that another man ranked above him as the number one fighter in boxing history, admitting that he feels Sugar Ray Robinson is deserving of that honour.
“That man was beautiful. Timing, speed, reflexes, rhythm, his body, everything was beautiful.
“I’d say I’m the greatest heavyweight of all time, but pound-for-pound, I still say Sugar Ray Robinson was the greatest of all time.”
Robinson competed professionally from 1940 to 1965, having a remarkable 201 fights during that time, winning 174 of them. At his peak, Robinson once had a record of 129 wins from 132 fights, with 85 of those wins coming by knockout.
He went on a 91-fight unbeaten streak during that time, as he held the world welterweight title for five years, before becoming world middleweight champion on multiple occasions.
Ali isn’t the only boxing legend that believes Robinson is the best ever, with fellow heavyweight icon Mike Tyson also sharing the same view.
