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.

Jose Benavidez Sr. publicly invited Artur Beterbiev and his team to enter into negotiations to fight David Benavidez.

The comments came after Beterbiev recently discussed previous talks involving both camps. Benavidez Sr., who is David’s father, trainer and manager, said he is ready for the fight to continue.


“Right now, if Beterbiev is watching, their managers are watching, or whoever is making this decision, I am David’s father, coach, manager. Let’s sit down. Let’s make these fights happen. These are the fights we want to make,” Benavidez Sr. he told Fight Hub TV.

“We never got an offer. Like I’m telling you, we never got an offer. But these are the fights we want. With all due respect, I think Beterbiev is a great fighter, man. He’s a very threatening fighter. He’s one of the best right now. He and Bivol are some of the top fighters, but these are the fighters we want to prove ourselves and want to fight.”

Benavidez Sr. added that organizing the fight shouldn’t be a major problem if both sides are interested.

“Let’s organize this fight. It can be fought in five minutes,” said Jose Senior. “These are the fights we want. We are ready to give the people what they want.”

David Benavidez became a three-division world champion earlier this year when he defeated Zurdo Ramirez in the cruiserweight division. Since then, Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol are often mentioned among the potential opponents of Benavidez’s next fight.

“Let’s go,” Benavidez Sr. said. “We are ready. These are the fights we want.”

Muhammad Ali recognized one boxer as the true greatest boxer of all time: “I still say he was the best”

Muhammad Ali ranked one boxer as the true greatest of all time: “I still say he was the best”

Many boxing fans consider Muhammad Ali the greatest of all time, but he once revealed his own choice.

Ali’s notable achievements include winning the world heavyweight title three times while talking about the greatest fights in history, including “Rumble In The Jungle” against George Foreman and “Thrilla In Manila” against Joe Frazier.

His final record was 56 wins in 61 fights, also defeating the likes of Sonny Liston, Floyd Patterson, Earnie Shavers and Ken Norton, and also became a cultural icon outside the ring.

These achievements are why many fans consider Ali to be the greatest of all time, but in a renewed interviewthe heavyweight legend once revealed that he chose Sugar Ray Robinson for the honor.

“This man was attractive. The timing, the speed, the reflexes, the rhythm, his body, everything was attractive.

“I’d say I’m the greatest heavyweight of all time, but pound for pound I still say Sugar Ray Robinson was the best of all time.”

Robinson reigned as the world welterweight champion for five years, from 1946 to 1951, and went on an incredible 91-fight unbeaten streak.

His record at one stage was 129 wins from 132 fights, 85 of which were knockout victories. After reigning at welterweight, he moved up to middleweight, where he became a five-time world champion in that category.

When he finally hung up his gloves in 1965, he finished his career with a record of 174 wins in 201 fights, and it’s clear why Ali considers him the best.

Tim Bradley explains why Lamont Roach can beat William Zepeda

Bradley says Roach’s experience against pressure players and southpaws will give him an advantage on August 1

Tim Bradley thinks Lamont Roach Jr. he is the player best placed to make William Zepeda lose. In a speech on his YouTube channel, Bradley selected Roach as the winner of the vacant WBC lightweight title on August 1 and cited the fight’s stylistic advantages as a key factor.


“I’m picking Roach to win this fight,” Bradley said on his channel. “I think it’s a perfect match in style. I think Roach fights southpaws better than orthodox fighters.”

Roach comes into the fight coming off a draw with Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz and a contentious draw with Gervonta Davis, as well as two physically demanding fights against high-pressure fighters that Bradley says has prepared him for Zepeda’s relentless approach.

“I think he fought one of the best southpaws in the world in Tank Davis. And he did damn well against him,” Bradley said. “He wasn’t scared by the force of the impact.”

Bradley believes Roach has the tools needed to neutralize Zepeda’s pressure.

“When guys who like to get forward and be aggressive, nine times out of 10 they don’t like being tackled,” Bradley said. “Roach has the ability to do it. He has the knowledge and the IQ to be able to do it. And if he does it, he will win this fight.”

Bradley also cautioned that Roach cannot afford to leave matters in the judges’ hands, arguing that he needs to create more separation than in recent draws with Isaac Cruz and Gervonta Davis.
