Shakur Stevenson Exits Zuffa Boxing, Plans Own Promotional Company
Shakur Stevenson, a four‑weight world champion, announced that his request to be released from the Saudi‑backed Zuffa Boxing promotion was granted, leaving him a free agent. He expressed frustration over stalled fight negotiations, notably with Devin Haney, and said he will launch his own promotional company while defending his WBO light‑welterweight title before moving up to welterweight.
