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.
Tony Bellew is going against the grain for tonight’s Daniel Dubois vs Fabio Wardley rematch.
The pair meet again just five months on from their thrilling first encounter, with Dubois now WBO champion having won the belt from Wardley via eleventh round stoppage.
After surviving two early knockdowns, the Londoner – who is now in his second stint as heavyweight titlist – took over the contest with a solid jab setting up thudding attacks that exhausted Wardley.
Though the Ipswich man stayed on his feet throughout, referee Howard Foster waved it off as the punishment because too much.
It is how the fight ended, and those last few rounds in which Dubois was largely dominating, that make him a strong favourite to retain his belt.
Giving his prediction to the BBCformer cruiserweight world champion Bellew backed Wardley to have success early again, but capitalise fully this time and end it.
“I’m going to be the difference. I am going to back Fabio Wardley by knockout within six rounds. Yep, I said [it]. I’m going for Fab within six.”
Dubois was on the canvas within ten seconds last time out, and took a knee in the third when hurt again.
Bellew has questioned Dubois’ resolve in the past, pointing to his stoppage loss to Joe Joyce as proof that there is a point he can be pushed to that he is not willing to go beyond. Many, however, will look to the first Wardley performance and disagree.
Both men recorded the highest weights of their careers on the scalessuggesting that neither will be changing the gameplan to a more measured affair, rather looking to engage in round 13 from the off tonight at London’s O2.
Top trainer Peter Fury has offered his expert analysis on the rematch between Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley, believing it is still a 50/50 fight.
Others, meanwhile, will argue that Dubois should be made a considerable favourite, based on how he was able to dismantle Wardley in their first encounter.
In order to do so, the ‘Dynamite’ puncher was compelled to climb off the canvas in rounds one and three, having been put down by blows to the top of his head.
Proceedings then became a little one-sided as Dubois, utilising his fundamentals, managed to score an 11th-round finish with his thudding jab and superior footwork.
Wardley, however, wasted little time before activating the rematch clause in their contract and, in turn, securing the chance to reclaim his WBO title at London’s O2 Arena tomorrow evening.
Many will argue that such a swift turnaround could lead to his downfall while, due to his power and toughness, others would suggest that the 31-year-old is always dangerous, no matter the opponent standing across from him.
As such, coach Fury has told Boxing King Media that, while Dubois is rightfully brimming with confidence, it would be foolish to entirely dismiss Wardley’s attributes.
“I think it’s a great heavyweight fight – Dubois has got heavy hands and a good jab as well, so it’ll be interesting.
“You’ve got to say Wardley’s got it all to do, because the confidence of Dubois will be high. And if Dubois’ super confident, he’s a problem.
“But let’s see – Wardley was able to hurt Dubois early on. I still think that fight is a 50/50 fight.”
If he emerges victorious against Wardley, then Dubois will likely be targeting a unification match with Agit Kabayel or Filip Hrgovic in 2027.
Daniel Dubois will face Fabio Wardley in a rematch of a heavyweight slugfest from earlier this year, with Dubois defending the WBO heavyweight title he took from Wardley on that night.
