Shakur Stevenson lets the rumors go Zuffa Boxing and a possible fight with Devin Haney continues to build without shutting either of them down.
Stevenson was approached after the win by Keyshawn Davis over Nahir Albright and was asked directly about the growing talk surrounding Zuffa and Haney.
“Just let them keep talking. They keep talking, and that’s fine. So, I’m not confirming or denying anything. Everybody just keeps tuning in,” Shakur told Fighthype when asked if he’s signing with Zuffa and fighting Haney.
The unbeaten Stevenson avoided giving a direct answer, but he also made no attempt to cool the speculation surrounding his future. Rumors of a possible move involving Zuffa Boxing and a fight against Haney have continued to circulate in recent weeks, especially after Dana White publicly praised Stevenson following his recent performances.
When told that “Dana really wants you,” Stevenson pointed back to his work in the ring.
“I did everything I was supposed to do my last fight, and I continue to do it,” Shakur said.
Stevenson also gave his thoughts on Davis’ performance earlier in the interview, believing the fight could have ended earlier if more attention had been paid to bodywork.
“I feel like if Keyshawn went to the body earlier, it was over.”
No official announcement has been made regarding Stevenson’s signing with Zuffa Boxing or Haney next. However, Shakur’s response did little to slow the talk around either possibility. Stevenson is also currently a free promotional agent following his recent one-fight deal with Matchroom.
