Valdez got beat fair and square. No shame in losing.
you can see clearly how much physically bigger Stevenson was he looked a little soft in the mid section so im guessing at least weighing in around 147 in the ring he won the fight but also couldnt stop Valdez body attack and also ate every right hand Valdez threw he needs to work on that before he fights anybody at 135 Haney schools him Tank, Lopez and Kambosos KO within 10
How about loma?
Manny was smaller than everyone else at 112 and kicked ass so stop your excuses. Pernell Whitaker was smaller than his opponents and embarrassed them. Just say Valdez wasn’t good enough or that you dislike black fighters.
You are spot on
Black man is a big reason why we watch sports
– Not my big reason.
– Not any reason for that matter….
Don’t know what fight you we’re watching but some of the credit they were giving Valdez were not flush punches and just got you flail at the body doesn’t mean you’re connecting, Stevenson caught most of the body punches on the arms. As far as the right he landed a few but Stevenson was out of range so they weren’t flush and did no damage. Also Stevenson spars all those guys at 135 and he spars with Terence Crawford so I think he’ll have no problems holding his own he’s fundamentally sound.
Styles make fights don’t forget that
Let’s hear the excuses from those who said Valdez would crush Stevenson in 1 and that he would “run” in 5…4…3…2…1
Outstanding win for Stevenson, hard to beat at 130.
Valdez is f*cking one dimensional trash man, literally choked & lost every round. Congrats to legend shakur though see a very bright future, Mexican got cucked again.
Shakur won, but he’s no finisher! Do not compare him to Floyd, Morales or PAC @30
A win is a win KO’s mean nothing if your the one getting KO’d, congratulations to Stevenson for his dominate performance. Contrary to some of you fans who want boxers to trade all night the goal is to hit and not be hit, when he’s done boxing he wants to have all his faculties and be able to enjoy his riches.
Most people don’t understand the sweet science of boxing
When you’re consistently getting punched in your face that’s not boxing that’s called getting beat up
