Is Stevenson-Roach “Absolute Poison”? The Fight That Could Test Riyadh Season Fans

Lamont Roach Responded favorably to Shakur Stevenson’s comment on Being His Three-Fight Hitlist, saying it’s “Going to Be One Hell of A Fight.” Would Be A Classic Jerry vs. Jerry Fight Involving Two Pure Boxers That Use Step-Back Style to Get Avoid Getting.

Turki Alalshikh Would Be Interested in Using Roach, 29, As Opponent for Shakur on His Riyadh Season Cards. It’s Not The Ideal Opponent to Use A Defensive Fighter Like Shakur.

Roach Responds to Stevenson

“That’s Going To Be Two Great Competitors Against One Another, And It’s Going to Be One Hell of A Fight. Just Like Me and Tank Was A Good Fight, “Said Lamont Roach As Quoted by Ring Magazine XTalking About A Hypothetical Fight Against Shakur Stevenson Lightweight.

Entertaining to Make Stevenson’s Fights, Requires Brawlers That Pressure Him. Putting In Him With Another Pure Boxer Like Roach Would Be Absolute Poison. The Boos Would Be Fans From Nonstop, Unhappy Seeing Two Jerry-Esque Fighters Inside The Ring. Turki Needs To Have His Eyes Open and Think About The Worst-Case Scenario Of Matching These Similar Fighters.

Making Shakur Fights Palatable

To Make Shakur Palatable to Fans, Turki Needs To Concentrate An Exclusively Matching Him Against These Fighters:

1. Andy Cruz
2. Floyd Schofield
3. Abdullah Mason
4. Raymond Muratalla
5. Herrera cores

I Would Add Gervis to the List, But He’s Not Interested in Fighting Movers Like Shakur. He Wants His Opponents To Come and Fight.

If The Stevenson-Roach Fight Was Buried Near The Bottom Of An Undercard, The Backlash Wouldn’t Be Bad. Being the Opening Fight of Event Wouldn’t Be Too Bad, But Nowhere Near the Main Event or Co-Feature Spot.

Roach (25-1-2, 10 Kos) Still has a rematch with gervona davis that he’s waiting. So, It’s questionable Whether A Match Against Shakur Can Happen Soon.

Why Stevenson Wants Roach

“I Would Love To Fight Him,” Said Shakur to Nightcap About Wanting to Fight Roach. “I’m Tank, Lamont, and I Like Andy Cruz,” Said Stevenson About The Three Lightweights He Wants to Fight.

It’s understandable Why Shakur is interested in Fighting Roach. He Can’t Punch, and He has begs Less Fear Fighting Him Than ‘The Big Four’ – Andy Cruz, Muratalla, cores, and Schofield.
