WBC Lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson has said who he wants to face next year. There are two names on the list.
“From Teo to Conor — 2026 will be my best year!” Stevenson wrote.
In his previous fight, Shakur (24-0, 11 KO) defeated William Zepeda by decision. His matchup with Teofimo Lopez could take place in late January 2026, but the fight has not yet been officially announced.
Conor Benn (24-1, 14 KO) avenged his loss in a fight against Chris Eubank Jr. and called out Stevenson.
