The WBC champion in the lightweight category Shakur Stevenson says that he wants Challenger Floyd Schofield to thank him for giving him the opportunity to fight on this card on Saturday night, February 2nd, in Riyadh. Shakur (22-0, 10 ko) chose ‘Kid Austin’ Schofield, and now he wants to show gratitude.
Schofield resolved Shakur yesterday by saying he was acting on a mental level “7-year-old” childand he was stunned as an adult.
Demanding gratitude
It’s a distorted, narcissistic playing Move from Stevenson’s part, wanting to humiliate Schofield (18-0, 12 ko) to insert the role of a rented servant, not a fighter who earned the title. He wants a child Austin to understand that He is the boss In this struggle and only as an opponent on Page B, he was brought to lose.
If he manages to get a 22-year-old challenger in the role of gratitude for the opportunity, he can demoralize him where he will not fight so hard. It’s great on Shakur’s side, but it also shows how uncertain it goes to Saturday. He is worried.
Schofield could make Shakur complain that he picked him up by throwing him out. He is a much bigger percussion than most limited oppositions that Stevenson has struggled with since moving to the £ 135 in 2023, and he has the courage to go after him if he is running.
A sign of uncertainty?
“I think he’s a small child, and a little kid will say anything,” Shakur Stevenson said to box to the boxer about Challenger Floyd Schofield ahead of their fight this Saturday in Riyadh. “He doesn’t really know what’s going on right now. He just enjoys being here at the moment.
“You should say, ‘Thank you,“” Shakur told the desire to put Challenger Schofield in the position of subordination. “I think they will realize that this is a brand new level of boxing that has never been to before.”
There is a level when you are just you and @Shakurstevenson In the ring 🤷♂️
