Dante Davis's former promoter Floyd Mayweather Jr with a big time compliment for Shakur Stevenson and apparently the hate is real between the camps of Floyd Mayweather Jr and javante Davis let's talk about that in this video [Music] all right very underrated style of boxer the quote unquote pure boxer that is going to win a boxing match by putting his hands on you and preventing you from putting your hands on him the sweet science hit and don't get hit if you had to put a face on that right now in most people's minds who are boxing fans the name would be or the face would be Floyd Mayweather Jr who despite being quite expert at knocking people the F out had a reputation for being a defensive wizard much like Pernell Whitaker that came before him and uh other uh defensive Wizards in the past and now we have another defensive wizard at least that's what many people say in Shakur Stevenson and like Floyd later in his career Shakur Stevenson's getting a lot of heat for the way that he fights Floyd Mayweather Jr after he beat John Gotti responded to a tweet from Shakur in which Shakur said hey basically called him the goat said there's a whole lot of people hating on you but I'm still learning from you and what you do in the ring obviously I mean at least from my point of view I think Shakur Stevenson is telling the truth he really believes that javant that Floyd Mayweather Jr is the greatest of all time whole lot of people believe that erroneously obviously it's it's Muhammad Ali if you pay attention to what matters but hey people have the right to make mistakes now Floyd though said to Shakur called to said thanks future or little TBE which is little the best ever if you've noticed ever since Floyd May weather Jr broke from or Dante broke from Floyd Mayweather Jr let me get that straight javante broke from Floyd Mayweather Jr there's been increasing appreciation expressed for Shakur Stevenson out of Floyd Mayweather Jr so much that that Floyd Mayweather Jr said hey man I'd like to sign you so you have these two dudes who are both very similar to one another except for you know the obvious difference one dude is has very serious knockout power you know throughout a range of weight classes 130 135 I think all safe to say all the way up to 140 where I don't know if Shakur Stevenson you know I would say Shakur Stevenson really had it at 130 really didn't look like he had it a lot at 126 didn't really look particularly overly powerful at 135 so far but still just somebody that again hit and cannot be hit is just for real now if so the comment about javante Davis shouldn't really be surprising I mean you know about Shakur Stevenson really shouldn't be surprising for Floyd Mayweather jior however I do think that there is a little hint of um shot at javante Davis you know over that in that reply because obviously people want to see or talking about Shakur Stevenson fighting javante Davis and javante Davis is a very heavy favorite to beat Shakur Stevenson the last time I checked the odds and and they were odds that were on like box. live it was over plus 200 for Shakur Stevenson to win and I think minus somewhere around minus 250 at the time that I checked uh minus 254 Dante Davis so it was like a 7030 odds in favor of Dante DAV AV over Shakur Stevenson um I don't know a lot of people really that think that javante Davis is going to lose to Shakur Stevenson if you pay attention to the channel and listen to like some of the breakdowns that are done by very advid boxing fans on the channel number one guy that I'm going to talk to about is Phoenix the Assassin Phoenix be killing Shakur Stevenson and talking about uh Shakur Stevenson's um actually hes in the defense of Shakur Stevenson and in essence repeating some of the things or at least echoing some of the sentiment from Kenny Ellis talking about talking about um Shakur Stevenson is that you know if Shakur Stevenson gets if he winds up being down on the cards Shakur Stevenson doesn't have the ability to turn that fight around make an adjustment to go get javante where if javante is down on the cards javante can do that with Shakur Stevenson so if Shakur Ste so if javante Davis out boxes him or keeps it very very close and you have to consider dvon Davis the fa favorite maybe because he was Landing some of the bigger shots in the earlier rounds there's no other gear for Shakur Stevenson to go after for javante so pretty much to just saying look man if we make this an allout speed race and we can really Force Shakur into having to fight that there's only one guy that is going to come out the winner uh that is going to come out the winner in that fight and is javante and his javante Davis sh I do not doubt that Floyd Mayweather Jr May suspect the same thing cuz if you haven't seen it Floyd was in the ring with javante Davis many many times and one of the biggest you know the funniest ones was when when javante Davis beat up on Haney in their sparring session yeah you better believe I'm going to remind some of y'all of that right where the rumors were that you know jant that Devon really got off on javante Davis and Devon really you know ran the show but then to see the pummeling that Devon Haney took place that you know that Devon Haney had to submit to with a um let's say not Peak shape javante Davis coming off of a plane uh and according to Adrian Broner having a few drinks and still doing that to Devon Floyd Mayweather Jr knows what he's dealing with also and I'm going to probably look into this a little bit more deeply I heard a statement from uh Kenny Ellis where Kenny Ellis had referred to something going on with Floyd Mayweather Jr when Mario baros and javante Davis fought and Floyd Mayweather Jr having told javante Davis that he was down on the cards even though jante Davis was up significantly on the cards uh against Mario baros and uh and why jaante Davis why Floyd May Mayweather Jr would do that and he linked the reason even though he didn't give the reason to the fact that javante Davis and Floyd Mayweather Jr no longer get along um but anyway man it's just all real interesting stuff I'm I would love to know what what Floyd Mayweather Jr really thinks about the uh really thinks about the fight um and who he would really pick in the to win in the fight I think that more than likely though it's javante Davis that's my take and he's probably just hating a little bit and saying thank you to Shakur Stevenson for complimenting uh Floyd and I ain't going to lie to Floyd can fight even though I was not interested in that particular fight with John Gotti at all dude can really fight anyway that's my take on the matter please let me know what you think in the comment section and with that I'm out deuces [Music]
