Shakur-Stevenson Shakur Stevenson wants to fight against 'Mini Mike Tyson' Boxing: "Easy Work"

Shakur Stevenson He proved his class to win a very light WBO world title on Saturday night and the American is already looking at a fight with a man referred to as the ‘Mini Mike Tyson’ to box.

Stevenson dominated Teofimo Lopez In what was predicted would be his toughest test to date, but eventually proved to be as comfortable with the majority of his 25 wins so far in his professional career.

As a result, the 28-year-old sits as the third youngest four-division world champion ever, after Oscar de la Hoya and Adrien Broner, and Paw de Newark finally begins to receive acclaim as one of the best boxing pound-am-pound talents.

Stevenson is now considering his next decision, considering whether he should return to the light scene and try to unite the belts at 135 lbs, or move up to a welter weight for a fight with Conor Benn and ultimate challenge for honor in a fifth weight.

However, in an Interview with Cigar TalkStevenson refused to override to remain very light, as he confessed to his interest in conflict with Mexico Interim Champion Isaac Cruz, who is often compared to Mike Tyson because of his aggressive style.

“It’s about the most profitable lads and the most profitable fighting guys are the men I’m going to fight.

“I see Pitbull (Isaac Cruz), Pitbull is a foi which is a name in the sport and, frankly, it’s many casual fans who love Pitbull.

“So most of its fans are the casual guys and they think a guy like Pitbull would be the style to do something with me, but (it’s) easy work.”

Cruz defended his WBC interim title in a draw with Lamont Roach JR back in December, but former WBA lightweight champion is still sitting Below Alberto Puello in the Pigment Restor for a Shot at Dalton Smith, WBC title holder who reigned.
