The former world champion in two weight categories wants to enter the ring against the Ukrainian boxer.
Shakur Stevenson wants to fight Vasily Lomachenko as soon as possible. According to the former world champion in two weight categories, this fight should be a big event.
At the same time, Stevenson himself is not afraid to meet with the famous Ukrainian and said that he has already included this fight in his future plans.
“I think our fight with Lomachenko could be a big deal. I’m ready to fight him in the next fight, but it would be nice if it even happens in one. My team knows I’m ready. They won’t talk to me or whatever else. I’m ready to go,” boxing 247 quotes Stevenson.
It can be remembered that Shakur last fought against Brazilian Robson Conceicao, whom he defeated by unanimous decision. Stevenson still lost his WBO and WBC featherweight titles after failing to make his weight limit at the weigh-in. Because of this, he announced that he will compete in lightweight.
Note that Lomachenko will next fight on October 29 against undefeated American Jemaine Ortiz.
Lomachenko previously showed how to prepare for the confrontation with Ortiz.
