Shakur Stevenson has a new favorite boxer, and it's not who you might expect. After his friend Terence Crawford's retirement, Stevenson is now praising the skills of Dmitry Bivol, a unified light-heavyweight ruler. But why is Bivol so highly regarded? Stevenson attributes his success to a simple yet effective style, mastering the fundamentals of boxing. He highlights Bivol's ability to keep his hands up, maintain a strong one-two punch, and display great footwork. Stevenson believes Bivol is one of the hardest fighters to beat, and he's not alone. While many boxing fans currently crown Oleksandr Usyk or Naoya Inoue as the best, Stevenson's choice of Bivol could spark some debate. But here's where it gets interesting: Bivol has been inactive for 11 months, and his return match against IBF mandatory challenger Michael Eifert is expected this spring. Will Bivol's inactivity impact his performance? And what do you think? Is Bivol truly the best boxer, or is Stevenson just biased? Let's discuss in the comments!
