    Because he wants no part of Stevenson. Arum won't do anything to make it happen either.

      It’s amazing Gervonta gets a pass as well and he doesn’t have a world title either just name recognition but he gets a pass with difficult fights. I love me some Gervonta but this some B.S. he gets so many passes on real fights!

        Shakur will be fighting somebody undeserving, like JoJo Diaz.

          And that WBA "regular" belt prevents Tank from being ranked by the WBC. Boxing sometimes...

            I meant why isn’t Shakur and Loma not an option for the vacant title? Loma should still be ranked high enough..

              Think it might end up being Jamaine Ortiz

                  Top Rank Promoter, Bob Arum, has all but confirmed that Shakur Stevenson will not face Vasily Lomachenko next, despite the pair having a shot at a vacant


                  “Lomachenko is balking about fighting this year. He wants to take time off. The s**t situation is still going on in Ukraine and it’s come close to where he lives, with all the bombing of Odesa.

                  So he really he can’t get focused on fighting. I don’t think it has anything to do with Shakur.”

                    Shakur Davis is a huge fight that's going to set somebody back and it will be bigger if they both progress a little, I think they will marinate this one for a couple of fights.

                      Shakur is a lightweight, even talking already about moving up to 140. Navarrete is a 130 pounder who barely moved up and barely beat his biggest name . Casual
