Is Shakur Stevenson guilty of the same “money grab” he criticizes in Tank Davis?

Shakur Stevenson says Gervonta Davis should take the Rematch against Lamont Roach rather than Jake Paul in a “Money grabs WWE” Type of fighting.

Potential bitterness and resentment

It is difficult to ignore the real possibility that Shakur may be bitter and troubled About Tank Davis fighting against Jake rather than himself. Stevenson has pushed Gervonta hard for a fight since the New Jersey native moved up to the lightweight division in 2023.

A look at Stevenson’s resume

Shakur constantly exclaimed Tank, but did very little to earn the fight by tackling the upper lightweights to increase its popularity. Instead of running a gorge of Andy Cruz, Abdullah Mason, Raymond Muratalla and Jadier Herrera, Shakur chose to fight these fighters:

• Josh Padley
• Shuichiro Yoshino
• Artem Harutyunyan
• William Zepeda
• Edwin de Los Santos

From a business perspective, Shakur says he understands why WBA lightweight champion Tank Davis is fighting against Jake, but he believes fans prefer to see fighters at elite level stand against other top boxers. In this case, it would be a re -broadcast with Roach.

Stevenson says tank that fights against Jake Paul will make fans feel, “A kind of way,” Maybe it means they will be disappointed with the quality of the game and consider it a ‘WWE’ competition just to make money.

A “money -grab wwe” fight

‘Buddy (Gervonta Davis) has just found out in his last battle. If you are a champion and a top level you say you are, I think a rematch would be the most competitive thing to do as an athlete, ‘Shakur Stevenson tells The arenaAnd argue that Tank Davis should fight Lamont Roach in a re-broadcast, rather than going to a career-high payday against Jake Paul.

“The Jake Paul situation is like a money -grabbing fight. It’s to me like some wwe s ***, ‘Shakur says of Tank Davis’ next battle against Jake Paul.

Shakur occurs as deeply jealous of Gervonta taking the fight against Jake, rather than facing the pure boxer in a rematch. Financially, Davis would be foolish to fight a re-broadcast with the counter-stamping Lamont and make much less money.

Tank’s massive financial incentive

• $ 2 million guaranteed for Lamont Roach on March 1 2025
• Estimate of $ 40 million for Jake Paul Clash

Why would Tank Davis Roach stand in a rematch and earn a small fraction of the money he would get by fighting against Jake Paul? Would Shakur do this? We already see Stevenson abandoning his WBC lightweight title and going to 140 to stand in a money fight.

Is Stevenson just as guilty?

Instead of Shakur his title against his no. 1 -contender defender, Andy cruzFor a smaller payday in a collision he can lose, he goes up to light welterweight to stand theofimo for what he hopes to be a massive wallet.

Doesn’t the move make Shakur just as guilty as Tank Davis by avoiding a fight that he could lose, which would pay less for the sake of a larger payday against a lack, avoided fighter, theofimo?
