Teofimo Lopez rejects Tank Davis’s claim before the Shakur fight

Teofimo Lopez has pushed the attention of Gervont Davis “Boxing is Dead” today, indicating that many fighters “still come to the gym to remain valid.”

WBO LIGHT D WADZKA WADZKA, LOPEZ (22-1, 13 KO), is trained for a great fight against Shakur Stevenson, which is to take place in January 2026. This is a fight in which Teofimo can choose the highest career, depending on how large Turks Alalshikh offers him.

With a giant purse, which is expected that Teofimo will continue to fight Shakur Stevenson, it is understandable that he is still motivated. He has not yet achieved a negative burning stage that Tank Davis has.

Shakur Stevenson Hit-Andrun Problem

Lopez will have to find a way to solve the hit and conducted amateur style to win in this fight. Stevenson (24-0, 11 KO) is not to stand and fight with him, as he did against William Zedah on July 12, 2025. Teofimo hits too difficult and is too unsafe for Shakur to fight in this way.

What Stevenson does, tries to thwart Lopez, make him fight recklessly, being too aggressive to be able to utilize it.

Can Teofimo win a decision?

The real question is: Can Teofimo Lopez win a decision against Shakur? Will Teofimo need a knockout to win? If it’s your Teo, it would be a good idea to focus on hunting your head to make sure he will win by turning Shakura.

I would be nervous if I was Lopez after he drew attention to these strangely shouted results, which were given to Stevenson’s last fight with William Zeda. They did not match the actual fight. Zepeda fought well enough to deserve a draw or a close loss, but the judges gave him Stevenson through the results 118-110, 118-110 and 119-109.

It comes out 10-2 and 11-1 In favor of Shakur. The judges literally did not admit Zepeda for anything he did in this fight, even in the early rounds, when Shakur worked, buried him with volume. If the judges treats Teofimo, he will not have a chance to win, except for throwing Stevenson.

The status of Shakur-Lopz is such that it is supposedly still negotiated. After signing, an official announcement will be made.

Lopez rejects the attention of Tank Davis

Lopez apparently disagrees with Gervont about dying sport, as well as many people. If he died, there would not be so many retired fighters returning in the 1940s and 1950s to try to earn more money than during a career.

Tank Davis published on X, stating that this sport lacked loyalty, and later announced that he would retire in eight weeks. Sporty was disappointed with this sport. But of course he is not enough to stay long enough to choose the payment of $ 40 million for an exhibition match with Jake Paul on November 14.

Davis was talented by criticism, which he received from fans and the media for his 12-round draw against Lamont Roach on March 1, 2025. He was also criticized for not taking risks, fighting Shakur Stevenson and other highest lightweight power.

The perception lies in the fact that Gervonta decided to take basic fights that his promoters gave him, instead of insisting on fighting the opposition, which would be more risky and would give more payments. Davis’s fight against Roach had a win for him, but it turned out that he was more arduous than he expected.

Super featherweight Nelson Birchall (13-0, 10 KOs) handed Levi Giles (17-4-1) his first stoppage defeat with a seventh-round TKO. The unbeaten prospect’s quick, accurate punching wore down Giles over the scheduled ten-round contest. Giles maintained his effort, but Birchall landed the cleaner shots and increasingly took control. A fifth-round knockdown began a punishing stretch for Giles.

Birchall sent him to the canvas again in the sixth. Giles went down for a third time in the seventh, bringing the fight to an end. Birchall finished with three knockdowns in as many rounds to secure his tenth stoppage victory.

Lightweight Fawas Aborode (3-0, 3 KOs) stopped Rashid Omar (8-10, 1 KO) in the fourth round. Aborode dictated the action and finished the contest inside the distance, maintaining his perfect knockout record.

Aaron Noriega (3-0) scored a fourth-round TKO over Leonardo Baez in their super featherweight bout. Noriega celebrated the victory in the ring wearing a Mexican-flag cap.

Middleweight Issiah Hamilton-Allen (4-0) earned a shutout points victory over Jensen Irving (6-41-2, 1 KO). The four-round bout ended with a 40-36 score in Hamilton-Allen’s favor.
