Shakur Stevenson slammed Garvonta Davis in an interview, noting that he used weight stipulations on his opponents and faced “less talented fighters” to make himself look better than him.

WBC lightweight champion Stevenson (22-0, 10 KOs) was furious when told Garvonta was unimpressed with his record and asked what he had done to make him want to fight him in his career. Tank shuts down any chance of a fight against Shakur, he thinks ineligible to meet the king. It's true. Shakur is completely incompetent in his presence.

It's Shakur's promoter, Eddie Hearn, who is discussing the idea of ​​a fight with Tank Davis in 2025. Hearn created the 2025 map for the Newark, New Jersey native, talking about fighting against these three:

1. Floyd Schofield
2. William Zepeda
3. Gervonta Davis

Now, Shakur is babbling that the fight with Tank Davis is a forgone conclusion, without telling him anything. Tank's like, 'What is this guy talking about?' Shakur is like a spoiled child, used to getting what he wants, and fits if no one tells him to.

Stevenson needs to give Edwin de los Santos a rematch, prove he can fight without taking a run and then face off. Andy Cruz. The Cuban talent is a better version of Shakur but with offense, energy and a willingness to engage. If Cruise were a computer, he'd be the next generation of Shakur, a clunky, outdated, 2000-level early model, frozen in leaves.

Weight drain complaint

“He just doesn't seem like a real person. No disrespect to him, but I'm a real person. I'm not going to go out there and act like Tank's not a good fighter,” Shakur Stevenson said. Boxing newsGervanta Davis said he wasn't impressed with his record, and he shut down rumors of the two meeting in the ring because he didn't see any value in fighting Shakur.

“The way he asks what I did for boxing, I think he should look in the mirror and ask the same question because what have you done?” Shakur continued about Tank Davis. “Even the guys you knocked out are all in a weight clause, a weight drain. It looks good to the public and to those who don't know, but I'm a fighter. I know what is happening. I know what you are doing.

“You're taking less talented fighters and putting them in the ring with you and making them look like they're on his level, but they're not. Until he fights an elite level fighter, I don't want to hear anything from him,” Shakur said.

What Gervonta is saying is 100% true. Who has Shakur fought in his career? No one is good. He beat several ranked fighters at 130, captured three paper titles against weaker opponents, and looked hellish since moving up to 135. In his fight against Edwin De Los Santos, he was thrown out of the arena, and the fans fled. Driven to his last fight against weak-punching Artem Harutyunyan in his hometown of Newark last July.

“Fight the one I fought!”

“He (Tank) acted like he couldn't get many people in the ring. Why did he not try to get Edwin de los Santos? Why would that not be a fight that you want? Because you want to talk bad about me, fight someone I fought. And you talked about my performance doing it. So, out-perform me,” said Shakur.

Tank fighting Edwin De Los Santos will do nothing for him and his career because that guy hasn't fought in 14 months. He would lose to Stevenson, and he would be out for 21 months when he fought Garvonta in August or September.

Shakur's stock has fallen since he was exposed as a chicken runner by De Los Santos on November 16, 2023. He did nothing to show courage by fighting him in a rematch or in his next bout against the light-hitting Arten Haroutunian. .
