Eddie Hearn said if he fights William Zepeda in Queens in New York on Saturday, July 12, WBC lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson is next ready to fight Gervonta Davis.
Hearn pushes tank Davis to fight
Initiator Hearn believes Stevenson (23-0, 11 kos) will show that he is “the best lightweight in the world” by defeating Zepeda (33-0, 27 KOS) and is ready to fight WBA champion Tank Davis. If the battle at Davis-Shakur happens next, it will be a commercial showdown, rather than a match involving two best lightweight matches.
We just saw the tank struggling, arguably losing his last battle with Lamont Roach. He looks terrible. Shakur hasn’t fought any significant lightweight battles since his underperforming Edwin de Los Santos, who was exposed by him in 2023.
– Josh Padley
– Artem Harutyunyan
Hearn’s Shakur contract strategy
It’s understandable, Hearn crazy To get Tank Davis to fight for Shakur as his two battle contracts with the game room fight with Zepeda expired. Hearn may want to expand his contract with Stevenson, the best way to do this is to offer Gervonta Mega-Money Fight.
Matchroom owner Hearn at least has to try to do this battle because it’s the only thing Shakur wants. If he is going to use his amateur style to win the tank to win the decision, he will get money and verification.
Calling the Tank Davis
“I believe Shakur Stevenson is now the best lightweight in the world. Gervonta Davis vs. Shakur is another huge battle. The best in the sport. Roaring moment For Shakur Stevenson. ”
Hearn’s “Crowd Moment” comment means Shakur can stand up, Crows are like roostersstand up like a fence with his bass and summon Davis’ tank. Given his lightweight resume is ugly even if he beats Zepeda.
We’re talking about going from fighting electrician Josh Padley to defeating Zepeda and then going straight into a huge battle with Gervonta Davis. Stevenson is still not worth the fight. To truly win the tank battle, Shakur must defeat these fighters in this order without controversy:
- Andy Cruz
- Abdullah Mason
- Raymond Muratalla
- Floyd Schofield
- Herrera Core
Shakur: Is the hype or real?
Even if Shakur signed a long-term deal with Matchroom, Hearn would still be anxious to fight Tank Davis. The reason for this is that Stevenson is not as light as the top guys. If the fight in Gervonta is delayed by a year or two, Newark, Newark, Newark, will face great pressure to prove itself against high-quality lightweight.
“I think it should be (next). Shakur’s fight against Zepeda is a great fight. I think it’s the type of battle you really need,” said promoter Eddie Hearn, who wants to get Gervonta Davis to Shakur Stevenson if he beat William Zepeda on Saturday.
Tank vs. Shakur is not a battle that fans “really need”. Next, one needs to see Andy Cruz or Abdullah Mason facing Stevenson. Fans need to determine if Shakur is real or just a fake, because his promotion is because upgrading to lightweight is an example of the hype job.
We see how Hearn signed him to the game room by matching him to two tomato jars, which made Edgar Berlanga fight Canelo Alvarez. Now we see Hearn and Shakur have the same magic as Shakur in the second battle with the company’s two battle contracts.
