Shakur Stevenson delivered a masterclass in boxing, dominating Teofimo Lopez over 12 rounds to claim the WBO and Ring super lightweight titles in a thrilling bout at Madison Square Garden. The victory not only kept Stevenson’s unbeaten record intact but also elevated him to the status of a four-weight world champion. The 28-year-old’s near-flawless performance has set the stage for a series of high-profile matchups.
One of the most talked-about potential opponents is Conor Benn. The two have been engaged in a war of words on social media, sparked by their heated exchange on a popular boxing show. Stevenson has made it clear that he is eager to face Benn, expressing confidence in his ability to dismantle his opponent. Benn, who last fought in November with a victory over Chris Eubank Jr., has shown interest in facing the winner of the upcoming WBC world title fight between Mario Barrios and Ryan Garcia. He has also hinted at a possible showdown with WBA welterweight world champion Rolando Romero.
Another contender in the super lightweight division is Dalton Smith. Smith, who recently dethroned Subriel Matias to claim his first world title, has been praised for his stellar amateur career and impressive professional record. Keyshawn Davis, among others, has lauded Smith’s skills and achievements, making him a formidable opponent for Stevenson.
Stevenson has also expressed interest in returning to the lightweight division, where Raymond Muratalla currently holds the IBF lightweight world title. Muratalla’s recent successful defense of his title has positioned him as a potential challenger for Stevenson, adding another layer of excitement to the boxing landscape.
With his sights set on further cementing his legacy, Stevenson’s willingness to move up in weight classes opens up a plethora of possibilities. His potential matchups with Benn, Smith, and Muratalla promise to deliver thrilling encounters that boxing fans eagerly anticipate.
