SHAKUR STEVENSON JOINS MATCHROOM: IS HE READY TO TAKE ON THE BIGGEST NAMES?
Shakur Stevenson has made a bold move by signing with Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing for his upcoming fight against Joe Cordina. After turning down a $15 million deal from Top Rank, Shakur chose to explore his options, ultimately deciding that Matchroom was the best fit for his future ambitions.

Shakur, a three-division world champion at just 27 years old, has his sights set on the biggest names in boxing. After discussions with various promoters, including Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather, Shakur made it clear that he wants to take on the top fighters. However, his decision to fight Cordina has raised some eyebrows, especially since Cordina is coming off a knockout loss and needs to drop down to 135 pounds for this bout.
Despite the questions surrounding the Cordina fight, Shakur remains confident. He sees this match as a way to stay active and build momentum for even bigger showdowns, such as a potential clash with Gervonta Davis. The fight will take place on October 12th, as part of the co-main event on the Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol card, giving Shakur a massive platform to showcase his skills.

Shakur knows the pressure is on to deliver a spectacular performance. His last two fights, against Edwin De Los Santos and Artem Harutyunyan, received criticism for his defensive style. To continue his rise, Shakur will need to prove he can dominate opponents with both skill and power, especially if he hopes to challenge the likes of Davis.
Shakur’s move to Matchroom signals his intent to become a global superstar. With Hearn’s promotional machine behind him and the support of Riyadh Season, Shakur is ready to take on anyone who dares to step into the ring with him.
