Gervonta Davis’ trainer Calvin Ford shared his thoughts on a potential fight between Shakur Stevenson and Devin Haney that could be fought at the 144-pound catchweight.

Although no agreement appeared to be reached, Haney stated on social media that he would be willing to sacrifice £3 in the name of an agreement.

This would mean giving up his right to retain the WBO welterweight title that earned him a unanimous decision victory over Brian Norman Jr in November.

“The Dream” has since been ordered to face mandatory challenger Keyshawn Davis, but he was clearly more enthused about a lucrative matchup with Stevenson.

The four-division world champion is eliminated victory by wide points over Teofimo Lopezwhom he dethroned in January while fighting for the WBO super lightweight title.

Like Haney, Stevenson is a free agent with the promotion, but has been linked with a move to Dana White’s Zuffa Boxing, which does not currently recognize a 140-pound weight class.

Nevertheless, the 28-year-old could face Haney in a fight between two stars fighting on a pound-for-pound basis, and trainer Ford told him that Fighting Hub TV that he has difficulty picking a clear favorite.

“Devin – he’s a good boxer. And Shakur is a good boxer. This is a must-watch boxing match.

“Devin probably doesn’t see any threat – it’s not like he’s fighting a boxer. So Devin can take a risk. [It’s about] who throws the best shots of the night.

“Devin can box and Shakur… is a master at what he does.”

While both are undefeated technicians, many would argue that Stevenson has the edge when it comes to in-ring IQ, while Haney is clearly an operator with an impressive physical build.

As a three-weight world champion, the 27-year-old may represent Stevenson’s toughest potential opponent.

“As a player, he’s at a lower level. Like at a lower level. A level at more than one level. There’s nothing to even discuss. No, he’s at a lower level,” Shakur said on Andre Ward’s YouTube channel.

Stevenson admitted that Benn has improved in recent years, but believes the difference remains significant.

“What I will say about Conor Benn, he’s very focused and he’s getting better and better. He’s not just staying in the same place. I see him getting better and better. But when you’re at this level and someone at this level, you kind of like to get a little bit better, but it’s not going to happen,” Shakur said.

When asked what divides them, Stevenson pointed to what he believes is a lack of experience and understanding of the sport.

“He doesn’t know enough. He doesn’t know a lot of things that I know,” Shakur said of Conor.

Stevenson also questioned Benn’s position in the sport despite the money he had made during his career.

“I think Conor Benn is a great businessman. He’s a low-level fighter who’s making money at the highest level,” Shakur said.

Benn’s recent opponents include Peter Dobson, Rodolfo Orozco, former WBA junior welterweight champion Regis Prograis and Chris Eubank Jr. His victories over Prograis and Eubank came at 37 and 35 respectively.

Both fighters have been linked to a possible future fight since Benn entered the ring following Stevenson’s win over Teofimo Lopez earlier this year. Stevenson revealed his side had contacted us about taking the fight, but said he had been told Benn’s team were not interested.

Shakur currently holds the WBO welterweight title, while Benn continues to campaign at welterweight. No fight has been announced between the two.
