it will take a special fighter to beat shaker. boring as hell but he can box
Him and Haney are the most peculiar boxers in boxing atm.
It would be hard af for anyone to beat them because they box the way they do and their natural gifts (hand speed, reach) make them size mismatches for anyone that could (tank, loma, etc.) and anyone with their size (kambosos, teofimo, ryan) just aren't good enough to match them.
Even an eventual matchup between Shakur vs Haney is weird because Haney boxes so incredibly safe while Shakur likely has more skill but hardly has great power at 130, can't imagine 135 being different; probably less power.
Not Happening!

All Indications is that Navarette wants his Free Agent Status that he was suppose to have but of course Promoters doing what they do found a way to tie Fighters Up and try to force their hand into staying with them
Navarette is typically one of the most active fighters in all of boxing, his Inactivity is a clear indication that something is going on with his Promotion. Maybe not so much with Top Rank but with Zanfer for sure
Is Navarette with Top Rank or GBP?
Navarrate is top rank. Everybody is at top rank from 130 to 140
Shakur
Valdez
Navarrate
Haney
Lomachenko
Taylor
Teofimo
Ramirez
No, looks like Vaquero won't fight him right away. He has a tune up in August first, if it still happens.
Just seen that. Hopefully they can get it made for December.
Welp, looks live Vaquero vs Baez instead, which falls in line with most of Navarrete's fights. Not a bad opponent, but not a top 5 guy, should be fun stylistically and have great action, but just another guy out gunned against Vaquero. Just give me Shakur vs Conceicao next
That then try to reschedule Stevenson-Navarrete for the end of the year.

Good fight. Stevenson by UD. Stevenson could be putting together a fighter of the year resume. Valdez, Navarrete and maybe one more fight at end of the year.

Navarrete would have to do a lot of roughhousing to neutralize all the holding Stevenson would do. Ugly boring fight I think. Now Navarrete vs Valdez or Nakathila would be a super exciting fight!
