What is the Fight Date and Time?
Shakur Stevenson will face Floyd Schofield in the ring on Saturday, February 22, 2025, with the boxers appearing on Riyadh Season’s The Last Crescendo fight card. The fight time is yet to be confirmed.
Who is Most Likely to Win?
As Shakur Stevenson currently holds the WBC lightweight title and is more experienced in the ring, he’s the bookies’ favorite to win the fight against Floyd Schofield this February.
When Schofield recently skipped a media event in London, Stevenson quickly called out the rising star and stated his opponent would regret the fight.
He said, “Yeah, he’s definitely made a mistake. He’s a good, young fighter, a hungry fighter. I hope he still takes the fight. I was kind of worried because he’s not here. Don’t get butterflies and pull out of the fight, Floyd. I know it’s a hard time, I know you’re dealing with a lot but just show up. I’m coming in and putting my offensive on I’ll let my hands go and I’ll beat guys up.”
Despite looking up to Stevenson as a young fighter, Schofield has promised it won’t affect his performance in the ring.
He recently commented, “We weren’t super close. Now he talks a lot of c***. It’s not weird to me now because it’s not about me fighting my idol, it’s about taking his boat. But who knows, maybe after the fight he can be my idol again and he will do whatever he does after that fight. But as of right now, I don’t look at him in that way.”
