It can display the loss of Teofimo Shakur as a paper tiger

Shakur Stephenson has already chosen his next opponent after his massive microcosm against Tudaimo Lopez in early 2026. Stephenson (24-0, 11 Cos) says after he hit Lopez (22-1, 13 Cos), will fight “Lamont Roche.”

Will the light weight Will Will, Shakour Will, join his title against one of the competitors in the department in favor of obtaining a defense against Rocch, feather weight (25-1-2, 10 KOS). Stevenson’s last defense was his WBC title against William Zebida on July 12, 2025.

Lopez is a murderer first, the battle of Andy Cruz is ever?

Stevenson, 28, does not say why he prefers to fight Roche, a technical fighter who has no power. It may not matter. It will make the fighting of Rush life easier for Shakur because he will give him an excuse to delay the inevitable battle against WBC competitor 1, Andy CruzOr one of the other competitors in 135.

A hero who escapes from his department

The worst type of light hero you can get is the hero who disturbs the competitors and chooses to fight the opposition outside the weight category. This is not fair. If Shakour Roche fought, this second match will be against an unpleasant weight, assuming that the clash against Tudaimo Lopez will happen next year.

“This is the battle that I want. There is no other battle around it Episode heroes About Teofimo Lopez being the man who is yet. “There is no objection to going to 140 for him. I think the battle will happen.”

Two -part financial strategy

Of course, Stevenson does not mind. The battle against Tudaimo operates in two ways:

1. She is allowed to avoid Andy Cruz: Lopez fights much better than facing the Olympic Gold Medal for 2020 and may lose heavily.
2. The wallet will be great: Shekour can get an increase of $ 7 million in his last battle against Zebida.

Stevenson said: “It was Lamont Roche in which I was trying to fight. We’ll fight after I beat Tio,” Stevenson said.

What Stephenson should do is planning his reconstruction plan if he lost to Tudaimo, because there is a very real possibility that he will be beaten.

Obviously, she can return to the lightweight title and continue to defend the WBC title. But it will look ridiculous to defend it against Roche while Lopez’s loss.

Do not be surprised if Tudaimo Shakur reveals by hitting him badly, worse than defensive artist Arnold Barbosa Junior, on May 2, 2025. Lopez can do everything that Shakur can, but with a lot of strength. He got a three -foot rear style and can move around the ring just like him. What Topimo said regardless is that he has a knockout force in any hand. Therefore, when it falls on Shakur, it will harm.

Stevenson safety network exposed

Stevenson reached this extent in the 135 -pound section due to the success made by the former promoters of Top Rank and Matchroom. None of the competitors in the upper row since moved to the light weight in 2023. Shakur owes a lot of his success to his promoters, who chose to match him against these men instead of any of the light weights in the section:

• Josh Badli
• Artem Harutian
• William Zebida
• Shweshero Yoshino
• Edwin de Los Santos
