Ryan Garcia says Shakur Stevenson “is not so good” and is over “

Ryan Garcia says the light champion of WBC, Shakur Stevenson, “is not that good.” He claims that Shakur is “increasing” because he sat on his ropes in his last fight against volume puncher William Zepeda on July 12, 2025, blocking shots.

Ryan says Shakur (24-0, 11 kos) could do so because “Zepeda has no power in his traits”. So Stevenson could be on the ropes, block -and sometimes land a note. Garcia states that Shakur’s fighters do not do well, they are with power, like Edwin de los Santos.

Ryan says that Stevenson cannot be in his pocket against punches and that he must move. It is then when it does not look good. This would explain why Shakur moved so much in his fights against Los Santos and Jeremia Nakathilia. Fans see these two as the toughest punches that Stevenson has fought since he became a professional in 2017.

Ryan says he would like to fight Shakur and claims he would “give it.” He thinks Stevenson would have no power to worry about him, similar to Devin Haney. Garcia says he should “pursue it” because Stevenson would be “running, running and running”.

“Speaking of Shakur. Power Punchers does not highlight his skillsBut the boys who throw the volume stand out because they can only disappear (block) and simply break them. This guy is not so good, “said Ryan Garcia Cigar talk About Shakur Stevenson.

Zepeda (33-1, 27 kos) landed many bodies in Shakur while leaning on the ropes in his fight on July 12, 2025 at the Louis Armstrong Arena in Queens, New York.

The problem that Zepeda had was that the judges were more impressed with the occasional header that Stevenson landed. They apparently leaked the traits of the body that Zepeda was landing in Shakur in each round and had just set the punches on his head. It was like seeing an amateur struggle with the judges only marking heads. If Zepeda had been more aware of how the format judges used for their score would have been focused exclusively on throwing in their heads.

“They did,” Oh, he (Shakur) can be in his pocket now. “He is in his pocket because there is no danger,” said Garcia. “If you really know the boxing, you know that Zepeda has no power in his shots.”

Zepeda approached to demolish Stevenson in the third round when a right hand landed, which caused him to fall back to the side. Although Stevenson denied being injured and almost low, slow camera replaced showed that Zepeda landed a right hand that made him fall.

“If he struggled against Zepeda, he would let him punch and dodge -me with his shoulders and simply break it once hard,” said Garcia. “You can leave it to throw, throw, throw and wait a good shot. This is what I was doing (Stevenson). Wait, wait, wait, boom.”

Zepeda would also be a hard struggle for Ryan. This would not be an easy job as he says. Ryan had to move constantly to prevent the shots from being overwhelmed. If he were only with his back against the ropes as Shakur did, he should have the judges to filter out Zepeda’s body attack. He is very asking that he assume that the judges will score the struggle as if it were a fan competition more than a professional.

“Edwin de los Santos is a strong blow.” Feel your hands. Will put you on the edge. When Shakur is on the edge, it doesn’t look so good. Their skills you have seen against Zepeda will not go out. You can’t sit in your pocket as Floyd does. Must move. There is a big difference and it won’t look good. “

It would be difficult for Stevenson to fight the ropes against a great punch of power like Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero. The massive size of Rolly would make things difficult for Stevenson if he decided to fight stations. Rolly resembled a younger medium weight after rehydrating -for his heavy fight against Ryan Garcia on May 2, 2025, in Times Square in New York.

“I and Shakur? I would give it to him. I want this because these strokes will not hurt. Like Devin Haney,” Garcia said. “I only assure that every blow I throw, Shakur would hear it. He would not like to be in the ring with me. He is going to run, run and run. I will have to pursue and hunt him. What they want to see the judges. I only feel that there is a feeling of favoritism for the guy that works right now.”
