Shakur Stevenson Stripped of Titles After Missing Weight, Conceicao to Fight for Titles
Stevenson Loses Titles, Conceicao Gets Opportunity
Former world champion Shakur Stevenson was stripped of his WBO super featherweight and WBC super featherweight titles after he failed to make weight for his scheduled fight against Robson Conceicao.
Stevenson, who was a significant favorite to retain his titles, weighed in at 131.6 pounds, 0.6 pounds over the 131-pound limit. Conceicao, who was initially scheduled to fight for the vacant WBO super featherweight title, will now fight for both titles.
Stevenson's Current Record
Despite the setback, Stevenson's record remains impressive. The 26-year-old has a perfect record of 21-0, with 10 of his wins coming by knockout. He is widely considered to be one of the best young boxers in the world.
Stevenson's loss of his titles is a major disappointment, but he is expected to bounce back strong. He is still a young fighter with a lot of potential, and he will be looking to regain his titles as soon as possible.
