Benn calls Shakur: “Do it next!” – potential mega-but in weight classes

Conor Benn today invited a lightweight belt carrier of Shakur Stevenson on social media, asking him if he wanted to “Do it next.” Former World Champion in Three Division and the 2016 Olympic Silver Medal, Stevenson (23-0, 11 KO) recently expressed interest in fighting him in 154.

Benn (23-1, 14 ko) now provokes Shakura to take his words and agree to him. He doesn’t say if he would like Newark, a native of New Jersey Stevenson to get 154 for a fight or introduce him to 147. After rehydrates to fight in a lightweight category, he looks like he is in the ring in the veil. So, you should be able to fight Conor in 147.

“You want to do it next, Shakur Stevenson? Let’s start. No cheap conversation,“Said Conor Benn on Social mediaCalling a champion in the lightweight category of WBC Shakur Stevenson for a quarrel.

“Tank” Davis Further? Or Benn instead?

The invincible Shakur has a fight scheduled for July 12 against William Zeped in New York. This is a fight that Stevenson hopes to be an entrance to gain a lucrative conflict for uniting against the WBA champion in the lightweight category of Gervont ‘Tank’ Davis. Maybe it’s not.

If Shakur cannot lead a tank fight, there are several options for big salaries at 135. To continue to get good money, he will be expected to fight someone who wants to see him fighting him. In that case, Conor Benn could be the best option of Shakura. Can pull Benn back to 147 or request a catch of 143 or 144 to give himself a mild handicap like the one that Conor received for the loss from Chris Eubank Jr. -a medium weight on April 26.

If Shakur does not lead that fight with Benn, he could be stuck by defending his WBC light title against one of these risk candidates:

– Andy Cruz – ranked #1 with WBC
– Abdullah Zidar
– Raymond Muratalla
– Herrera core
– Floyd Schofield

These are all difficult for Shakur because they have power and or skills. His supplies would fall badly if he was fighting these guys. Stevenson can’t afford it, and can’t take over another Josh Padley-Type opponent without destroying his career. That was stupid move Shakur agreed to fight the electrician Padley in his last fight on February 2nd. He and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, did not consider a return reaction in the fight against a fee to a part -time working time like Padley.
