Gervonta's Lightweight Dominance: Who Can Truly Challenge Him?
Former lightweight champ Teofimo Lopez weighed in on Gervonta Davis' potential rivals in the division, saying,
"At lightweight, Gervonta's only real test is Shakur. He's got the skills to give Gervonta a run for his money. Stevenson's technique is a mind-bender for his opponents. Gervonta's been in the ring mostly with lesser talents. And don't forget - Garcia tops the charts in media buzz, but not in the ring," Lopez commented.
Gervonta's latest win was in April, dropping Ryan Garcia. Once the WBO Super lightweight king, Lopez hung up his gloves after vacating the title. Meanwhile, Shakur clinched the vacant WBC lightweight belt in November, besting Edwin De Los Santos.
