Gary Antuanne Russell’s comments about former WBC super featherweight champion O’Shaquie Foster did not go unanswered.
Russell claimed Foster talked too much on social media and suggested old sparring footage would tell a different story.
“If I went to the Olympic Training Center and pulled some tires, you’d be disgusted because I put some paws on him,” Russell told Brian Custer’s YouTube channel. He later said, “He’s not doing anything to Shakur. I was sitting there watching them spar.”
Foster quickly responded to X, accusing Russell of fabricating the story and challenging him to settle business in the ring.

The stock market adds another potential name to Antoine Russell’s growing list of targets. The WBA light welterweight champion spent much of the interview discussing his pursuit of big fights at 140 pounds, including a possible clash with Isaac’ Pitbull Cruz and future unification fights against the division’s titleholders.
Foster is coming off a career-best win over Raymond Ford and has repeatedly called on high-profile opponents since reclaiming his position among the top fighters at super featherweight. While the two men compete in different divisions, Foster made it clear that he would be willing to move up if it meant settling the dispute with Russell.
Rather than let the comments pass, Foster responded with a challenge, daring Russell to release the sparring footage and face him in an actual fight.
