Look, in the end, the truth is, Shakur Stevenson just toyed with Teofimo Lopez and battered him at will.
What a boxing clinic from him.
Jabs, footwork, keeping him at the distance that he wanted Lopez to be at.
Not the distance that Lopez wanted. Big difference:
A cut above. A class above. Just too good a fighter for him.
Slick. Precise. Switched on. Relaxed. Never worried or bothered.
At ease.
Pawing with the jab at points there. Busting him up with ease.
There was nothing Lopez could do with him in there and he knew it quickly.
Shakur Stevenson is now a four-weight world champion and that jab and high guard is really improving all the time.
He must continue to relentlessly improve in all aspects of the fight game to continue to be great in the sport.
We believe he’s moved up in the pound for pound rankings after this.
