“In my opinion, Shakur will be the most difficult fight for Tank, but Tank got what it takes to figure out any fighter. He got what it takes to adjust to any fighter and in the end, that’s what he got to do to get the victory. Plus, like I said, he got that show stopper too, so Shakur Stevenson will give him the most difficult time.” said Broner.
