Shakur Stevenson claims he would refuse a similar $ 40 million offer that Gervonta Davis received for a fight against Jake Paul if he were to come from a 12-lap. He says he will regain that fighter so he could get his ‘setback’ first.
Would he really say no to $ 50 million?
“I’m going to get my withdrawal,” said Shakur Stevenson Justin Laboy When asked if he would take a fight if he was offered $ 50 million by someone after fighting a draw against another fighter.
It’s hard to believe that Stevenson would reject an offer of $ 50 million to fight someone like Jake Paul. I mean, Shakur didn’t even resolve the controversy surrounding his fight against Edwin de Los Santos in 2023.
Of the Saints Controversy
Many fans believed that Shakur lost that battle. He should have cleared that controversy by giving Edwin a rematch, but he didn’t. In addition, people did not purchase the apology from Stevenson that Stevenson gave to explain why he would run all night. Again, if he wasn’t even prepared to run it back with De Los Santos, how can fans believe he wouldn’t take the $ 50 million if he was offered to him, rather than focusing on his ‘returned’ for a fighter he would strive for a draw?
“I’m going to withdraw. Go the $ 50 million somewhere? So, after I got my setback and beat this (fighter). So it’s a $ 100 (million) after getting my setback,” Stevenson said.
Interestingly, even when the interviewer told Shakur that the $ 50 million offer would not be there if he preferred to wait for the warrior while he was “retreating” to clean up a draw, he still said he would not take the money.
Given his focus on the target of exclusive money fights against Gervonta Davis and Theofimo Lopez on lower payments, but probably risky against Andy Cruz, it is amazing that he would be rejected the $ 50 million or even half of it to get his precious “back back”.
Tank Davis still on his head
‘Next question. I’m a goat. I’ll hit someone. Once you say you are not going to fight, what are we talking about? Then we can talk about it, ‘Shakur says about what he would do if Gervonta Davis calls him, saying he wants to fight.
Shakur has made it clear that he is still interested in fighting Gevonta if the opportunity arises. Despite his initial remark that he did not want to talk about Tank, he changed his tune when Laboy asked him for his response if he offered a fight against the Baltimore native. He is still eager to fight Davis, no matter what. Shakur’s perception fans are that he is desperate to fight tank, and it made him look bad in their eyes because he didn’t let go.
“I,” Shakur said when asked who wins between him and Jake Paul. “You’re not going to close your eyes and hit me with a shot I don’t see. I don’t care how big you are, ‘Stevenson says, saying that he would beat Jake Paul.
Without a weight impairment to weaken Jake Paul, it is incredible that Shakur would strike him in a battle of 10 to 12. Jake hit too hard, and he would eventually come to Stevenson to land one of his bombs because of his longer. For him to prevent Paul from being hit by Paul, he will have to limit his production to almost nothing, because he will be nailed if he prefers to open himself by throwing.
