Shakur Stevenson Wants to Promote Former Opponent

WBC lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson has made a surprising statement, expressing his desire to become a promoter and help guide the career of his former opponent, Edwin De Los Santos.

"Hey, who signed Edwin? Let me sign him, because what are you even doing with this guy’s career? He missed an opportunity just because he lost to one of the best fighters in the sport?" Stevenson tweeted.

Stevenson and De Los Santos fought in 2023, with Shakur securing a decision victory. Despite the win, the bout made history for the lowest number of punches landed in a fight, raising questions about its competitiveness.
