Shakur Stevenson act more aggressively than usual today, as if he was trying to punk his filling opponent Josh Padley in the weigh, putting himself on the face, pointing his finger and pushing it before their light fight at 12 laps A little light Undercard Fightbard Undercard Fight. Live on Dazn PPV on Saturday.
The strange part is that Padley (15-0, 4 KB) can probably strike as hard as Shakur, and he has only four ko on his file. If he takes the fight against him, he could upset himself. I doubt that the judges give him to Padley, but he would exhibit Shakur as Edwin de Los Santos.
Dio action
Stevenson (22-0, 10 kos) acted as if he had a chip on his shoulder, trying to intimidate him Marginal Padley (15-0, 4 Kos), that his promoter, Eddie Hearn, personally recommended At Turki Alashikh as the SU after Floyd Schofield fell with a disease and was removed from the fight.
This behavior would work better with fans if Shakur fought someone good with a chance to beat him, like Andy Cruz, Abdullah Mason or Raymond Muratalla. But to do this, a domestic fighter brought to last minute replacement is low.
It is quite obvious that Shakur is not sure after having transformed bad consecutive performances against Artem Harutyunyan and Edwin of Los Santos. What Stevenson fans had abandoned the ship after seeing that it was not what they thought originally.
This is not the opponent Shakur needs for him to reconquer the fans and create new ones. Stevenson should have opposed his veto to the choice of Padley and insisted on a better opponent, as Jadier Herrera Or someone else. At least if he had fought this guy, fans would give him credit if he won, but he could. This is probably why the 22-year-old Cuban herrera (16-0, 14 KB), because it is too good and could win.
Shakur weighed 134.1 pounds and Padley at 134 today at the weighing.
“This is what dreams are made of. This is why you enter boxing. A global title, the ultimate in sport. I’m going to catch it with both hands, “said Josh Padley Dazn boxing During the weighing today, speaking of the opportunity offered to him to fight WBC Lightweight Shakur Stevenson as a replacement adversary on Saturday evening. “Connect on Saturday evening to see him.”
“I told him I’m going to beat his A ***. A lot of energy is happening. He has a lot of energy. Let us install it in the ring, “said Shakur. “I stayed concentrated, I was locked up. The change of opponent does nothing for me, but I’m going to shine. I’ll shine tomorrow, and tomorrow is my time.
“In amateurs, you fight anyone and everyone. It’s nothing new to me. I have already gone here. It’s Showtime. Let’s do it. I promise you that I will remind them. Tomorrow is my time. I come to have fun and put a belt with a **, “said Stevenson.
