“No Diddy” gotta be the new pause yo 😂

[@listenup1766]

Keshawn Davis likes to fight. Boom there you go!!

[@nukedaduke34]

That's a good fight

[@This2dumb]

I like both kids. I would like to see it too. Our young talents need to also travel outside of the US and test these international challenges. It adds a lot to the mental focus and toughness aspect to their arsenal. Devin is so super confident after doing what he accomplished in Australia. Terrance Crawford and Errol Spence careers went to the next level after fighting in Europe. Even though Shawn lost against kell Brook, he was a better fighter after that experience

[@Smokers.54]

Keshawn ain't fight nobody now his chance

[@BabyKobeeee]

That’s a great idea but I doubt top rank would do that

[@listenup1766]

@@This2dumb that’s a good point. Fighting outside your backyard has its own mental and physical challenges that can be beneficial.

Tszyu did 100 southpaw rounds for Lubin before Thurman.

Keep em coming folks its always refreshing to see a drop

I would love to see Abdullah Mason vs Floyd Scofield, that would be a great co main on one of these upcoming fights either here or in Saudi.

[@theonewhoisbetterthanyou3570]

Sheeeeeeeeesh that be great.

[@landonlove2244]

Hell naw Tank is a headliner no matter where he fights. Now kid is a good co main with some else like Shakur

[@listenup1766]

I doubt if you ever see Tank co main ever again he is a draw and that fight would be Floyd v Canelo all over. After Schfield loose because he would loose against Tank and Shakur and Devin and Teo and Davis he would get better from the experience and then be a star.

No you don't. His style is tailor made for Abdullah. Coming in gets caught. That boy better keep fighting mid America folk 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@This2dumb]

Shakur is talented but it's being revealed that Shakur has character issues. To be as great as people think Shakur can be, he's gotta display great integrity and character.

[@alexanderknave1672]

True but that’s the story of every one of them. Tank beats and crashed into a woman, Devin with his actions (not giving fans value by ducking rematch and Shakur) and Ryan and Teo with their comments. None of them have that character unfortunately.

[@dubois8661]

Valid point. Not hating on him, just telling it true.

[@GinoCorleone]

Lol this isn’t going to age well

[@This2dumb]

@@alexanderknave1672 I disagree. Are you talking about Devin not rematching Loma? #1 when you're trying to be the best and accomplish the most at his young age you gotta keep it moving sometimes. #2 he traveled to Australia to rematch ol' boy so you can't give him that stigma. It might not have satisfied Americans but we aren't the center of the universe. Australian fans got the rematch they wanted. #3 when you barely get past a legend in Loma and you have developed to be physically bigger than the weight class you gotta keep it moving. #4 Devin is staying busy with a title defense against a legit, interesting, infamous guy who he has history with in Ryan

[@This2dumb]

@@GinoCorleone come on fam, don't repeat cliches and shit you see other people have said that have no meaning. If you engage in social discourse at least explain what you mean behind your catch phrase. This is what's wrong with social media and has become society at large, unfortunately

Do you think there is a specific experience you need to have before you get in the ring with some of these big names? Its a qood question,

[@MikeThaPhilosopher]

Floyd should sign with Prime.. Eddie and Golden Boy won’t promote him like he should be

[@listenup1766]

Love the confidence but there are levels. But don’t be in a rush. Dad and son can’t even see the advice an experience boxer is giving them. Dad setting son up for failure.

[@jaydenmackay9303]

Young Floyd is very talented I see where they get the comparisons and talking about Aaron Pryor and Shawn etc but the guy I always saw in him stylistically is a young Meldrick Taylor. Same as with Pryor and Porter not comparing him to them in the level of fighter but style wise i think he has that volume and hand speed and ability to be put combinations together with underrated defence. I think he will end up right at the top he has some things to work on and some prospects may right now look more contender ready but I think his talent is the highest. The footwork hand speed and ability to fight multiple ways is all there the elusiveness is there he just has to keep working to put it all together. Because I think might have a bit of special in him hes got some serious potential.

[@ryry6319]

On the promotion pbc put out Rolly said he started with Salas and should’ve never left btw. Ant with two tees said something about Rolly working with Salas last episode too and I forgot to mention that

Yo Shawn Tommy V. Here just watched some of this kids film. Yea he has heart but he's to wide in his power shots. He sounds like he's dedicated, but his range and feet looks a little to stuck on the canvas , to say he's ready for prime time , I would say 2 more years then he should be ready ,if he doesn't get rocked the way he hasn't yet , as far as shakur , in the last year he's been exposed to his real heart I really think his first concern in the ring is not fight just what I call I fight night shadow boxer with more excuses then a 1st grade thief
