Stephen Fulton Eyes Third title against O’Shaquie Foster on Gervont Davis vs. Lamont Roach 2 Undercard

Image: Stephen Fulton Eyes Third Title Against O'Shaquie Foster on Gervonta Davis vs. Lamont Roach 2 Undercard

O’shaquie foster vs. Stephen Fulton is discussed for Undercard of the Gervonta Davis vs. Lamont Roach 2 Rematch. Fulton (23-1, 8 KO) would move up to challenge Foster (23-3, 12 KO) for his WBC Super Feather Wweight title, trying to become a world champion in three testimonies.

30-year-old Fulton, recently dethroned the WBC Brandon Figueroa featherweight master in a rematch to become a world champion in two distance on February 1.

Davis Undercard

Brunch boxing reports that Fulton vs. Foster talks about Tank Davis vs. Lamont Roach 2. If this happens, it would be a great addition to this card. For fans who like to watch defensive fighters, they will be ecstatic to see how Fulton and Foster mix it.

O’Shaquie Foster, 31 years elderly, recently regained his title WBC Super Feather Wweight in his rematch against Robson Conceicao, winning a 12-round decision on December 2 in Verona, Recent York. It was a very doubtful victory of O’Shaquie, because Conceicao went through him and landed with better arrows.

Foster lost the WBC belt with the Golden Olympic medalist 2016 Conceicao in the previous fight last July 6 in Newark, Recent Jersey. After losing, O’Shaquie complained Nonstop, saying that he deserved to win and not closing on it.

He seemed to be a classic example of a sore loser in a pure denial. At least with Conceicao he showed the class, taking his controversial 12-round loss of decisions in a rematch without crying about the result and Having a child’s fit. Foster really lost both fights, but the judges gave him it in a rematch. The problem is that he is too defensive, he always wants to withdraw when his opponents attack.

Placing him and Shakur Stevenson on the same card in July last year was a disaster because the fans began to withdraw early from the center of Prudential. Those who stayed booed like crazy, as if he had never seen any of these guys before.

Rematch Riddle

It is not clear whether Fulton will return to the 126-pound division to recover his WBC Feather WWWEight title if he defeats Foster. With a Japanese star Nayya Inoue It is expected that he will soon go to the division of a featherweight, it makes sense that Stephen returns to the weight class.

Inoue has already destroyed Fulton in the effort of the eighth round of the eighth round two years ago on July 25, 2023. So it is possible that when Nayya moves to 126, he ignores Fulton, perceiving him as pointless to escape.

If the only reason for which Fulton returned to the pencil scale division is hope for the second payment against the Japanese star, he should forget about it and stay at the age of 130 if he wins before O’Shaguie.
