Shakur Stevenson

next opponent Shakur Stevenson (18-0, 9 KOs) will eventually become Robson Conceicao (17-1, 8 KOs), although before that there were rumors that Emanuel Navarrete, Joe Cordina, or Roger Gutierrez could become a possible opponent of the American.

The duel between the American and the Brazilian is scheduled for September 23 in Newark, Stevenson's hometown. The evening of boxing will be broadcast on ESPN.

Thus, boxing fans will have the opportunity to watch the fight between two Olympic medalists from Rio de Janeiro. Stevenson won silver there, losing in the final to Cuban Robeisi Ramirez. Conceiçao won gold by defeating Sofiane Omiha in the final.

Fearless, on the other hand, has already done more as a pro, winning championship titles in two divisions. The representative of Brazil is known for a somewhat controversial defeat from Oscar Valdes, who was caught doping before the fight, and the judges' cards themselves did not reflect the course of their fight in the best way.
