Comments Thread For: Shakur Stevenson Uncertain If He'll Remain At 130 Pounds After Conceicao Fight

It’s not like the big fights at 135 will be made anyway if he moves up. Should get the other belts at 130 until Bob is ready to make Loma vs Shakur. Maybe by then Loma will have beaten Haney. Those are probably bobs plans if i had to guess

If Shukur doesn't struggle to make weight, and wins, then Navarrette is the fight! If not, move to 135, and don't look back! Haney vs. Stevenson is "Must See TV," for the Sweet Scientists!

Not even for them. Nobody wants to see two guys scared to hit each other. "Muh sweEt sCiEnce" is just a cop out. It takes skill definitely but it'd also prize fighting. Nobody ever looks back on those fights.

Stevenson would be foolish to let promoter considerations stall his career. If he doesn't get a unification at 130 next just move up to 135 and unify there.

If the kid has to get all the belts at 130 for history sake, do it. All those guys at 135 ain't going nowhere. I think he beats them all so getting more mature as a boxer is only going to help his future in the higher divisions.

NEWARK, New Jersey - Becoming boxing's fully unified 130-pound champion remains a goal for Shakur Stevenson. If the business doesn't align for the undefeated southpaw to land the two title unification fights Stevenson needs to win to reign as his division's undisputed champion, however, he could move up to the lightweight limit of 135 pounds after he boxes Robson Conceicao. Stevenson (18-0, 9 KOs) is scheduled to defend his WBC and WBO 130-pound championships against Conceicao on September 23 at Prudential Center in Stevenson's hometown of Newark.
