Shakur Stevenson admits that the fight of Gervont Davis may not happen
Shakur Stevenson admits that he has accepted reality, that he may never enter the ring from Gervont Davis.
The Davis-Stevenson fight is one of the most sought after duels in sport and would be a lightweight union.
“Tank” decided to face Jake Paul at the exhibition on November 14 in Miami and many ask if he still has hunger for competing with elite names.
Stevenson, a three -division champion, talks about the challenge of Teofimo Lopez for his super lightweight WBO title and admits that the showdown with Davis may never take place.
“I reconciled when accepting that the fight may never happen,” said the 28-year-old Ring Champs from AK and Barak.
“It’s as it is.
“Not only Jake Paul’s fight.
“I don’t want it like me, I really want it ***.

“When I say I want to, I’m not talking about money, I want to be the best.
“This mountain of Rushmore, which they placed there by these guys.
“They put on sweet peas [Pernell Whitaker]People’s [Crawford]Floyd [Mayweather]. Place me next to them. “
Davis will face Paul in a controversial set of clashes for 195 pounds – 60 pounds heavier than the usual tank weight of 135 pounds.
The 30-year-old met face-to-face with the “problem Child” in a series of press conferences this week and was pressed by reporters because of his decision to face YouTuber turned by Stevenson and a rematch with Lamont Roach, with whom he drew in March.

“And what happened?
“He won, right? But what did he look like?
“Exactly.
“But you all say a few others, when I am, right? Because everyone wants me to lose.”
Davis suffered the first flaw of his career against Roach and was recognized as the luck that he did not leave with the first professional loss of his knees in the ninth round, which was not considered to be touched.
Stevenson says that he cannot blame his rival for choosing Paweł’s face, but he admits that he would probably decide the rematch.
“As a warrior, just because I had a draw with someone, I can get him back for me,” he added.
“But in a business aspect and you will lose with Lamont and the fight of Jake Paul, you may not earn so much money, and the fight may not be as lucrative as before losing.
“As a business I understand it, I will not hate this decision.”
Eddie Hearn did not contact Deontay Wilder about fighting Anthony Joshua after signing a contract to fight Tyson Fury, his manager Shelly Finkel claims.
There has been speculation that Joshua could return against Wilder before he faces Fury.
Instead, the 36-year-old will return to the ring on July 25 against Kristian Prengi, before facing Fury in November.
Wilder called out longtime rival “AJ” after his victory over Derek Chisora earlier this month.
The pair have been linked to a clash since both men held world heavyweight titles in 2018, and Finkel believes Joshua had no interest in fighting the “Bronze Bomber.”
“You can’t be disappointed with something that never happened,” Finkel said Heavenly sports.
“Eddie never contacted us and Joshua obviously had no intention of fighting Deontay Wilder.
“Same antique story, just modern date.”
Joshua and Wilder were scheduled to fight in March 2024, but the American was defeated by Joseph Parker in December 2023.
“AJ” will fight for the first time since he knocked out Jake Paul in the sixth round in December.
Ten days later, the two-time world heavyweight champion was involved in a tragic car accident that killed two of his close friends and left him with minor injuries.
Saudi Arabian boxing boss Turki Alalshikh announced that Joshua and Fury have signed a contract for their mega fight in a post on the website X on Monday, which read: “To my friends in the UK – it’s happening. This is signed.

Moments later, Joshua’s return was announced against unknown Albanian Prengi.
“It’s no secret that I’ve taken some time to consolidate and rebuild to be ready to get back into the ring, and today is the next step in that journey,” Joshua said.
“I am delighted to have agreed to a multi-fight contract starting on July 25 in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
“I’m looking forward to competing and continuing where I left off.
“Like I said. The landlord will collect rent. That’s for sure.”
Fury defeated Arslanbek Makhmudov on points in his return to the ring following his retirement earlier this year.
“The Gypsy King” called “AJ”, who was watching the gala from the side of the ring, and declared that he would retire again if the fight with his rival did not take place.
However, his manager Spencer Brown revealed that he may fight again ahead of his fight with Joshua.
