Shakur defeats Lopez, and then Ryan Garcia for a lot of money

Tim Bradley thinks Shakur Stevenson is another great star of this sport. He expects Shakur (24-0, 11 KO) to be the WBO Delicate Waiter, weighing Teofimo Lopez at the beginning of 2026, and then he will face Ryan Garcia “A lot of money. “

Tim says that it doesn’t matter that Shakur has no power and is a purely defensive fighter. He believes that his style is perfect for him to become another star, now when Terence Crawford approaches his retirement after his best career with Canelo Alvarez last month.

Turk’s headlight lithe on Shakur

So far, the style of Stevenson’s fight, which is an amateur point approach, has not resonated with fans. Turki Alalshikh gave him a chance to see on several of his seasonal cards with Riyada against Josh Padley and William Zedaie.

Shakur was saved from the guillotine Not being forced to fight these talented lithe carts:

  • Andy Cruz
  • Horer’s cores
  • Floyd Schofield
  • Abdullah Mason

Turks could put Stevenson’s feet on fire, insisting that he would fight one of these guys, instead of letting him feast the boxer part -time Josh Padley and Zepeda.

This is what made him come up now. However, Stevenson intends to fight Teofimo at the age of 140, and this can be the beginning of the end to be potentially knocked out or badly beaten by Teofimo.

Bradley’s forecasts

Shakur will be next canalcircling his wagons around Shakur Stevenson before the fight in 2026 with Teofimo Lopez.

“Shakur embarrasses fighters. He takes everything from you. He will be forced to frustrate your trainer in the corner. If you beat him [Teofimo Lopez]I see the throws with Ryan Garcia. It brings a lot of money. You fight Teo and then you can fight Ryan. You can meet him at the age of 144, “said Bradley.

Tim does not say which warrior Shakur embarrassed at the age of 135. None of the last four opponents, William Zepeda, Josh Padley, Artem Harutyunyan and Edwin de Los Santos, did not embarrass. The last warrior who looked bad was Shuichiro Yoshino in April 2023, but he was a fighter at a lower level at the age of 135.

Nation Vegas “Take: Lopez reality control

Yoshino did not belong to the ranking in the top 15, and if you look at the rankings now, you can’t see him anywhere. Sanctioning bodies made a mistake, occupying it with the highest level. So this is not a massive deal that Shakur has embarrassed him because he was not world -class.

If Stevenson continues to fight outside the 135-pound division, he must leave his lithe WBC title, because it would be his second in a row, if he faced Ryan Garcia after 140 or 144.

Zepeda Strace exposed

Tim assumes that Shakur will defeat Teofimo and it may not happen. If you saw Stevenson fought with Tom William Zeza at the beginning of this year on July 12, you would have to look at Lopez as a favorite against him.

Shakur was probably dropped in the third round by Zepeda, but the judge blew up the call, not considering him as knocking. In addition, he made many shots from the Mexican volume and looked beaten after the fight.

Undercard Results

Featherweight Masood Abdulah (14-1, 8 KOs) scored two knockdowns to defeat Adan Palma (14-2) by an eight-round unanimous decision. The judges scored it 78-72, 77-73 and 76-74.

Abdulah dropped Palma with a short left hook in the opening minute, then used his jab and compact hooks to catch him coming forward. Palma fought his way back into the contest, landing heavy right hands in the fourth round that forced Abdulah to clinch.

A well-timed check left hook sent Palma down again in the sixth, slowing his attack and giving Abdulah more room to dictate the action. Abdulah worked behind his jab and continued finding the left hook over the final two rounds to secure the victory.

Vinnie Kemp (1-0, 1 KO) stopped Liam McElhinney (0-3) with a barrage of body shots at 2:33 of the opening round in their scheduled four-round middleweight bout. Making his professional debut, Kemp charged forward from the opening bell, throwing hard punches and goading McElhinney.

The referee briefly paused the action to warn Kemp about his verbals before allowing the fight to continue. Kemp resumed his attack, stalking McElhinney and driving punches into his midsection.

McElhinney bent forward and covered up against the ropes under the sustained body attack, prompting the referee to wave it off. Kemp’s aggression gave him a quick debut victory, although McElhinney offered little to test him.

"Robert Garcia Analyzes Tim Tszyu's Odds Against Erislandy Lara | Boxing News"

Tim Tszyu seeks to become Australia’s third multi-divisional boxing world champion when he competes for Erislandy Lara’s WBA middleweight title next month, and ahead of the action, trainer Robert Garcia has offered his thoughts on the fight.

Tszyu lost his WBO super-welterweight title in a defeat to Sebastian Fundora back in 2024 and twice failed to reclaim 154lb honours, both against Bakhram Murtazaliev and in a rematch with Fundora.

Since then, the Aussie has stepped up to middleweight and scored a career-best win over Errol Spence Jr earlier this yearand now, the 32-year-old could join lead trainer Jeff Fenech and Liam Paro as his nation’s third two-weight world champion, if he can trump 43-year-old.

Speaking with ProBox TVRobert Garcia, who trains a potential future Tszyu opponent in Vergil Ortiz, admitted that he is leaning towards the home fighter, but noted that Lara will not be phased by competing in the challenger’s backyard.

“We can probably lean towards Tim Tsyzu because he is fighting at home, in front of his hometown, but Lara is not the fighter that brings in a lot of fans following him.

“He doesn’t have a following, he is not one that is going to sell out arenas, so even if it is in the United States, it is likely that most of the people are going to be [there] for Tim Tszyu because Australians do travel and Tim Tszyu has a lot of fans.

“For Lara, going to Australia is like going to Las Vegas or going to New York because he never has that following anyways. Anywhere he goes, he is going to be against the crowd. So, I think for him it is going to be one of those performances where it doesn’t make a difference if he is going to Tim Tsyzu’s hometown.”

Tszyu-Lara takes place at the Cbus Super Stadium in Queensland, Australia on Sunday 13 December.
