Foster says he was trying to get Stevenson moving for the upcoming fight after his victory over Raymond Ford. Shakur entered the ring after that, and the two went head-to-head. Foster appeared to extend his hand, but his attempted handshake was ignored.
Refusal to Celebrate: If Shakur is really serious about working and making a fight happen, rocking it in front of the cameras is an easy way to send a message to promoters and networks. Turning away from an outstretched hand tells you everything.
Social Media Movement: When the cameras went off, the narrative changed. Instead of talking about contracts, Shakur took to social media to complain about the history of the handshake itself. It's a huge smoke screen to distract from your retreat from social responsibility.
The whole incident looks like a self-inflicted trick. By hijacking Foster's moment, Shakur pretends to be looking for bigger challenges while avoiding any real accountability. Foster said it best: it's all talk until the deal is delivered. Leaving the ring without admitting anything proved that he was just riding the coattails to appear fast.
It's understandable why Foster now views it as drama on Shakur's part. In the boxing business, this is a low-risk, high-reward move for a fighter looking to keep his name in the headlines without signing on the dotted line.
Walking up to the ring after a hard fight, when the winner is tired, and the cameras are rolling, is an easy way to grab the title. He gets all the credit for a great fight without taking a single punch or spending a single day in training camp. It's a description of trying to collect war ribbons without going to the front lines.
If a fighter is really serious about getting in the line of fire, they don't just appear in a photo op and freeze when a hand is extended. A really hungry fighter takes that hand, looks this man in the eye, and tells the world it's done. To turn to a social contract, then run to social media later and complain about the semantics of handshakes, is a dead life.
Foster is absolutely right to call it. Until Shakur stopped posting on social media and actually put a contract on the table, that ring walk was nothing more than a cheap stunt designed to steal the spotlight.
