Shakur Stevenson said today that he wants Gervont Davis to fight after he defends his airy WBC title against William Zezedie on Saturday, July 12. Stevenson still claimed that the fight between him and Tank Davis is “The biggest fight in the world.” The reality is that there is no interest in this fight between fans.
Shakur is more and more perceived as false, “Jerry” who is only looking for cash against Tank Davis. He avoids the best killers, such as the plague, he doesn’t want Andy Cruz and Abdullah Mason.
Regardless of the popularity reservoir he once had, he ruined him with a cherry supple opposition, not fighting with sharks and unveiled by Lamont Roach. Now the biggest struggle for Shakur would be Andy Cruz or Abdullah Mason, two warriors who would probably beat him.
Zepeda Fight: Real Test Shakura
It is much too early to talk about the fight against Tank Davis, because his fight with Zepeda (33-0, 27 KO) can cause a massacre, and Mexican Brazerski makes him easier. He is a kind of warrior who destroyed Zepeda during his career.
Talking about how the Davis tank must be fought, suggests that Shakur has become a narcissist, believing that he is better than he. He looked terrible in relation to the only good warrior he faced at the age of 135, Edwin de Los Santos, and no one buys his excuse for this bad effort, because he looked equally bad against Arty Harutyunyan and Josh Padley.
“During my career I tried to get many names in the ring. They don’t want to fight it. Some guys are infirmed. I get these huge ** checks. I live well,” said Shakur Stevenson to make the Ring’s Magazine’s Magazine’s Ring’s Magazine’s magazine magazine magazine YouTube Channel. “Whenever these guys decide to grow balls and jump on the ring, we can do it,” Shakur said.
Guys who have expressed interest in the fight since the transition to the airy division:
– Gervonta Davis – Vasily Lomachenko – Devin Haney – Frank Martin – William Zepeda – Isaac Cruz
Why the best fighters avoid shakur
Lomachenko was close to the end of his career and, understandable, he was not interested in fighting Shakur after he was booed from the T-Mobile arena in the fight against Edwin de los Santos in 2023. Fighting Jerry Fighter for little money at the age of 36 was not that Lomachenko was interested.
Tank Davis also did not intend to fight Shakur after he watched him run away from De los Santos. The last thing he wanted was to be part of the fight in which Shakur chases, while the crowd throws him in the background.
Shakur does not understand how his game is a pure pressure ulcer for the fighters he wants to fight in, and after watching the fight de los Santos and Artem Harutyunyan, they did not see any value in the fight with him.
Stevenson’s claim: The biggest fight
“It’s definitely the biggest fight in the world,” said Shakur asked if he wants to fight Gervont Davis. “He tries to disregard my skills and behave as if I did nothing. I am ready to fight because he thinks he can beat me, and I think I can beat him.
The memory of Stevenson about Tank drew a criticism of fans who perceive this as the more chasing the strength of him to create false interest in the fight, which fans are not interested in watching. Tank is approaching the end of his career and may lose a rematch with Lamont Roach.
Fighters Shakur (23-0, 11 KO) do not mention that they are the best guys who shoot him, like Andy Cruz, Abdullah Mason, Raymond Muratalla and Floyd Schofield.
