Devin Haney is unbeaten in his career but Shakur Stevenson has revealed who he thinks will defeat him.
Both Stevenson and Haney are regarded as two of the best fighters in the world, with Stevenson currently reigning as the WBO super-lightweight champion after a victory over Teofimo Lopez last month, having previously held gold from featherweight to lightweight.
As for Haney, he claimed the WBO welterweight title back in November when he defeated Brian Norman Jr, going alongside his reign as undisputed lightweight champion and a brief period holding the WBC super-lightweight title.
Haney did suffer a loss at 140lbs when he was beaten by Ryan Garcia, but the result was overturned to a no contest after Garcia failed a drugs test, and thus ‘The Dream’ has remained in possession of his undefeated record.
Stevenson believes one man in particular has what it takes to give Haney his first legitimate loss though, revealing on a live stream with Adin Ross that Keyshawn Davis could be about to land the fight and will come out on top.
“Keyshawn Davis is going to fight him. I think it’s going to happen soon. Keyshawn is going to beat him.”
Undefeated star Davis is the former WBO lightweight champion, and recently returned after nearly one year out the ring to defeat Jamaine Ortiz at 140lbs, though later stated his desire to head up to 147lbs.
Davis and Stevenson are good friends, so it is no surprise to see Shakur backing him to defeat Haney, but boxing fans agree that it would certainly be an interesting match-up.
