Promoter Eddie Hearn has not yet giving up the thin hopes in Shakur Stevenson to fight against Gervont Davis. In an interview, VBC Lagan Champion Shakur (23-0, 11 Kos) had the appearance and sound of the fighter who admitted that the match against the reservoir would never happen.
Lost cause?
The promoter of the match, Harn, he calculated that he was first given by Shakur soft opponent, who finished, and then placing the fight against the Zepeda to prepare him for Gervonta Davis. However, Zepeda and its promoters in the golden boy did not show interest in combating Shakur.
As for the tank, he has his problems, dealing with Mess Mamont Roach. If it was when done, Davis, as reported, wants Vasili Lomachenko, Ryan Garcia, and even Jake Paul. Shakur is not on his meal list.
When Gervonta was exposed to the conditions that Shakur was fighting him, saying that he had to face his “brother” Keisawn Davis, he basically let him and everyone know that there would never be a fight between. Shakur got a hint and that’s why she looks defeated now. Now she realizes the fool to pursue this dowry long seeing things the way they are real.
Hearing solution
Eddie doesn’t give up and it’s understandable why. VBA Champion Tank Davis is the only money that fights there for Shakur 135. If Hearn cannot fight, sign Shakur for nothing.
Moreover, the way he performed in his fight against his replacement opponents Josh Padley 22. February, he is not able to hold his VBC belt and undefeated record if Harland throws him with a general population with killers at 135
The fight against Padley and Edvin de Los Santos showed that Shakur was not good enough to be with any of the candidates with abilities in lightweight. You put Stevenson with Andy Cruz, Abdullah Mason, Ernesto Mercado, Raimond Muratalla or Frank Martin. But hearless cannot continue to give Shakur special treatment to hold it departed, isolated from graved sea dogs.
Shakur Stevenson: “Eddie, I won’t lie. I’m ready to fight anybody.”
Eddie Hearn: “Is it (William) Zepeda will fight you? It is obvious that there is a struggle with tanks, which is, it is a struggle. You will really run out of your opponents.”
“We have a fight left, and then some options and we want Shakur to be with us for the rest of your career,” Eddie said IFL TVBy reacting to tell them that Shakur Stevenson says that only one struggle remained on the contract with the boxes and wants that the fight against Gervonta Davis is against Gervont Davis.
“I believe Shakur is the best 135-ponder. Just because the tank had bad Sabbath, people now,” Yes, I think Shakur beats tank, “You would never beat the” boxing tank before.
“It’s just a great struggle. I really want to argue, and I trust, Shakur Stevenson won Gervonta Davis,” Hell said.
