Theofimo Lopez cut off Shakur Stevenson on X on Friday and mocked him about his comments on the takeover of the sport. Lopez (21-1, 13 food) says Shakur’s ‘Boring style‘Is not suitable for taking over in this era in the ring.
Herrera avoids
Theofimo recently enjoyed messing with Stevenson. His repositioning of the Cuban lightweight contender Herrera’s Cores The cry of Shakur was hilarious, where he says that he is not a baby and that he will kill him.
Herrera (17-0, 15 COs) is the man who passed Shakur and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, in favor of light Josh Padley when they needed a substitute for the 22nd card after Floyd Schofield fell with a disease. They did not want to use Herrera, and there is no other way to look at other than seeing it as a duck work.
WBO Light Welterweight champion TheOFIMO’s career is at a different level than WBC lightweight champion Shakur at the moment. It is alleged that Lopez signed a three-match agreement worth $ 30 million with the Riyadh season.
Of course, this is money that Stevenson does not get to defend his WBC belt against Josh Padley and Artem Harutyunyan. Unless Stevenson’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, can battle Gervonta Davis before his contract is with him. It doesn’t look good for the Newark, New Jersey native.
This is Shakur’s only chance for a big payday at lightweight, and he is on borrowed time. It will not take long for the WBC to order Shakur against its no. 1 -contender, Andy Cruz, should not defend. The Cuban 2020 Olympic gold medalist can do everything Shakur can do in the ring, but he has more power. He is like a better version of Shakur.
The only thing that Cruz is missing is GAB’s gift to boast about himself and post 24/7 as Stevenson does on X. Talentwise, Cruz is a much better fighter than Shakur, and that’s clear why Keyshawn Davis doesn’t want to do anything to him. He lost four times against him, and he didn’t want to make it a fifth time.
Lopez’s X attack
“You take over bedding and pillows because you all fall asleep,” says Theofimo Lopez on X and Rooster Shakur Stevenson for his boring style. “You couldn’t even lay Josh Padley down within six. You are trash, you are garbage. You talk to yourself on Twitter because you are not friends. ‘
