Stevenson predicts a pay-per-see gold mine for a potential 2026 battle with Theofimo Lopez

Shakur Stevenson predicts his fight against Theofimo Lopez in 2026 “will sell tremendously” on PPV. He mentions that they will do great numbers with their personalities and the right promotion.

It would be nice if Shakur could fight against one of the lightweight contenders before the end of the year. In this way, he can show how he has improved and will be willing to exchange with Lopez rather than running.

“We both want to make boxing wonderful again,” Shakur Stevenson said The arena about the status of a fight between him and Theofimo Lopez.

It would be a positive for the sport if Shakur and Theofimo started to fight the best after their fight in 2026. I doubt my doubts. Lopez has not taken risks since its loss of George Kambosos jr. In 2021.

“I’m not losing him. Come fight night, I’m going to show the world. I have been waiting for this occasion all my life. Teo and I got great personalities. I think with the right support and the right promotion, the fight will sell tremendously, ‘says Shakur.

Stevenson doesn’t say what he means when he talks about “Waiting for this opportunity.” He has many opportunities for risky fights with lightweight against fighters who are just as good, if not better than theofimo.

Shakur just doesn’t fight against them but they are there at 135. I think what Stevenson means is that he waited for a big payday, like the one who will bring in a fight against Lopez for him. There is a lot of money that Stevenson can earn. In my opinion, some lightweights are more skilled than Lopez. There are Andy Cruz, Abdullah Mason, Floyd Schofield and Raymond Muratalla.

It doesn’t look good for Stevenson. He was surpassed in this fight against Lopez, and he could be on his way to his first defeat since Robisy Ramirez beat him in the 2016 Olympics.

Cuba’s robisy had links in tears, while he cried uninterrupted during the interview. He cried, but there were no tears. It was really strange, like watching a bad actor during a movie. Stevenson took the highway not to call it a robbery, which would make him look worse.

Theofimo has several advantages over Shakur that will make it difficult for him to win. These are the benefits:

• Hand speed
• May
• Aggressiveness
• Bravery

If Turki Alalshikh is the one that the Theofimo vs. Shakur event through the ring finance and promotes it can do decent numbers on Dazn PPV. It is not a big enough battle for Turki to place it on Netflix.

Stevenson is still a popular fighter, and the reason is clear. He is a runner -up, and he is not going to change the style unless he faces fighters who do not appear in their bumps. We saw Shakur fighting in the bag against lights Meeters William Zepeda, Josh Padley, Artem Harutyunyan and Shuichiro Yoshino.
