Oscar de la Hoya today revealed that Shakur Stefenson “Withdraw from the battle of William Zebida.Shakour posted the reason for the clouds on X, saying that Turki promised him a financial amount to fight Zepeda, but now he “returns to that.”
Cloud
Shakour did not mention the amount of money that Turki planned to present in the Battle of Zepeda (33-0, 27 KOS), but it seems not his opinion. Stefenson chooses not to move forward in the battle indicates that he focused more on “The bag” From his legacy or increased popularity. What happened to Shakour wants to show that he is the best? Now, he focuses on money, and appears a lot like Edgar Birlanga.
It will be interesting to know how much Turki Stefenson has provided in the past to fight with Zebida. If this is the same amount that he got in his last battle against a part -time boxer Josh Badli on February 22, this must be sufficient for him to pass the match. According to what Shakur was well paid to defend against Badli Ali DAZN PPV Card in Riyadh.
PPV danger
If Stephenson expects $ 10 million to defend the title against Zebida, he deceives himself. It is not the attractiveness of PPV, and it is likely not to be. Zepeda could not help in bringing the purchase either because it turned into a successive fading offers against Tevin Farmer in my last battle.
It can be said that the Mexican Slugger Zepeda has lost fans from these battle. In order for TURKI to try to sell Shakur vs. Zepeda as a major title now DAZN PPV It will be a financial disaster. Even with the loaded UnderCard card, this event will be bombed if Shakur is in the main address.
Stevenson failed to increase his popularity since he moved to the lightweight section in 2023. This is the main problem. He had fought some of the mysterious Japanese fighter in his first match in 135, then he had this terrible performance against Edwin de Los Santos, who was screaming from T-Mobile Square by fans to run for 12 rounds. Stevenson followed this with an equal boring battle against Artem Harutian in his final battle with the first rank.
Instead of fighting the dangerous Puncher, Jadier Herrera, on the February 22 card, Shakur chose the wrong Electric Josh Badley. It is quite clear that with the way Stephenson is matching, he is away from the intense opposition to ensure that it does not look bad again.
When he treated all of this, why does Turki want Shakur what he was hoping to have a fight against Zebida? If there is anything, the Turkish should wash his hands to Shakour and treat him as it is invisible. He needs to focus on his card fighters. Stevenson does not fulfill these criteria.
The promise is broken
😂😂😂😂 Is this what they told you ?? Turki promised me a number, and now he returns to this number that he promised me and sent the boys from his towel to run the information instead tells me directly what he is doing .. Ion bends to one of Mr. De La Hoya Now let us negotiate! https://t.co/s33oy0cefy
