Floyd Schofield posted on social that he’s acquired the contract and it’s a “Done deal” for the struggle towards Shakur Stevenson subsequent.
We’re nonetheless ready for Turki Alalshikh, Matchroom and Golden Boy to verify that Shakur vs. Schofield is signed for February twenty second. Shakur (22-0, 10 KOs) revealed on Saturday that he’d signed the contact. As we speak, he posted the cryptic message, “Baby food,” which clearly is referring to the 22-year-old Schofield.
Shakur’s Name
The 2016 Olympic silver medalist Shakur appears glad as a result of that is his child, the man that he wished. For apparent causes, Stevenson confirmed little interest in combating Andy Cruz or giving Edwin De Los Santos a rematch. He is aware of his limitations. Other than Shakur struggling an harm, Schofield is a secure selection with no actual likelihood of successful.
Some followers had been hoping that His Excellency Turki would veto Shakur’s concept of defending towards the novice Schofield and demand that Stevenson struggle Andy Cruz or Raymond Muratalla. That may have stopped this abomination from occurring.
Followers Ain’t Blissful
If the Stevenson vs. Schofield struggle will get introduced, it may finish badly for Child Austin, leaving him, Oscar De La Hoya, Shakur, and the followers trying silly. I say the followers as a result of lots of them will likely be speaking up the Shakur-Child Austin struggle, believing that it is going to be aggressive, and they are going to be sad when it isn’t.
Schofield and his father, Floyd Sr., have been driving the method, pushing arduous for the Shakur struggle. They sound so sure of victory regardless of the younger Child Austin’s full lack of expertise. He seemed horrible in his final struggle towards second-tier fighter Rene Tellez Giron on November 2nd. Followers consider the Schofields are thirsty. They know the payday goes to be good.
Individuals wouldn’t thoughts Schofield combating the Newark, New Jersey native Shakur for his WBC 135-lb title if he not less than proved himself towards some contenders, which he’s did not do.
Wouldn’t it be asking an excessive amount of for Child Austin to have overwhelmed two or three of those skills?
Andy Cruz
Raymond Muratalla
Abdullah Mason
William Zepeda
Denys Berinchky
