Crawford rips the tank and predicts Stephenson’s victory: “Shakur’s defense is too tight
Terrence Crawford reveals his dislike for Gelbonta “Tank” Davis, saying that Shakur Stephenson will defeat him. Crawford says he’s picking WBC lightweight champion Stevenson to beat the tank. His defense is too good.
Terrence doesn’t say how Stephenson can beat the tank if the entire focus is impossible and avoids hitting. That’s everything he does, and fans hate the outdated Myweather-esque hit-and-nut hit style from the early 2000s. If Crawford’s efforts in the garbage-talking tanks are trying to give his friend Shakur a fight, he would be really solid with him, but that doesn’t work. Gervonta wasn’t born yesterday. He knows what Crawford is trying to do.
Shakur (22-0, 10 Kos) has begged to fight Superstar Tank Davis (30-0, 28 Kos) since moving to 135 in 2024, but he has made himself into the market He rang out and did nothing as worth sharing. Shakur has done poorly in his final two fights against Artem Harutyunyan and Edwin de Los Santos. He faced the fans against Hartiunyan and booed him in the Delos Santos matchup.
Crawford’s personal dislike for Davis
“He didn’t even think about coming to 154,” Terrence Crawford said. Cigar Talk About Gervonta Davis. “Yes, if he could choose his opponent,” Terence said. I asked if the tank would reach 147.
“If Tank could choose his opponent, he would do that, but he would never have gone from 135 to 154,” Crawford said. I really don’t like him, so I don’t like that guy. I don’t like anything about him.
“He feels like he’s one of the arrogant little dues that use what he’s got to protect him. He has a lot of security guards around him, and he’s in the spotlight. I know I’m bathed. In certain circumstances, he never acted that way,” Crawford said.
Tank Davis has already raised two weight classes since the start of his 126-year-old career. So why do we need to raise three more divisions to compete in 154? What is it? Yeah, Crawford is a former For Division world champion, but he hasn’t fought against a huge opposition in these weight classes. He has risen to 168 to earn payday against Canelo Alvarez. It’s not like Crawford would stay there afterwards.
He could just go out on payday, take losses and retire or return from where he turned 154. Once he returns to junior middleweight, it just cherry picks vulnerable champion Sebastian Fundra. He is not going to fight anyone good people like Bakrahm Murtazaliev, Vergil Ortiz JR, Serhii Bohachuk or Israil Madrimov rematch.
“He’s a clever fighter. I admire him as a fighter. He has the skills, strength and incredible boxing skills. But he has the nucleus and his nucleus. The character and his way of doing things, no, Crawford said when asked who would win the battle between Tank Davis and Shakur Stevenson.
“Like I said, I respect tanks. In boxing, he is one of them. We’re going to remove his personality and personalities from it. In boxing, he’s definitely talented. There is, and he definitely has it. He is definitely respected in boxing, but Shakur is another fighter.”
Shakur: The Boring Truth
Crawford is right. Shakur is a “different fighter”, but he is toxic to fans and is not good for the sport in terms of supporting growth. It is no coincidence that Shakur’s battle with Floyd Schofield was buried at a Saturday inn in Riyadh on February 22nd. He is placed there for obvious reasons.
“Shakur is different. People may say he’s boring. People may say he can’t punch, but they said the same thing about Floyd because they’re defensive fighters. ” Crawford said. “Tank can’t hit Shakur like he hit everyone else. He knows that, and that’s why, “He’s boring. He’s this, he’s is.”
I hate to break this by Crawford, but Tank can hit Shakur to hurt him. He’s out of control. Terence may have formed his opinion that Shakur is indifferent from seeing him beat less opposition in recent years, but it will definitely be hit unless he runs. He would have lost the fight against Edwin de los Santos because he didn’t throw any punches.
“He’s trying to reduce everything Shakur has done, so it’s not marketable,” Crawford said. “But he can’t do that, because Shakur is a triple world champion. How many real titles does Tank have? Like two? The real title. (Jose) Pedraza, he I drained the pedraza. Do it in a uniform arena. Give that guy a time to train.”
Gervonta says it like Shakur is boring because it’s true. Fighters with that style are so afraid of being hit, they won’t get in the way of not touching them. They need to be weeded from sports.
“The tank is perfect for what he does and I respect the tank of the ring and his skills, his strength and attributes. He’s clever. He turns off his a** You can. I’m not saying I choose Shakur because of our differences. I’m telling you as a fighter. I’m going to make him do everything else. I would choose Shakur because I can’t land his shot on him. Shakur’s defense is too tight.
