Floyd Schofield Seeks Shakur Fight To Answer Doubters

Floyd Schofield has reiterated his desire to fight Shakur Stevenson before concluding his boxing career, aiming to silence critics who doubted him following their canceled February 2025 bout. Schofield, who was hospitalized prior to that scheduled meeting, stated to Fight Hub TV that his tactical plan against Stevenson involves aggressively targeting the arms and shoulders to break down his defense.

Before any potential bout with Stevenson, Schofield is scheduled to face Lucas Bahdi on October 10 in Chicago for the vacant WBA lightweight championship. While Schofield is aiming for a stoppage win over Bahdi to advance his title ambitions, the writer notes that pressing too hard could expose him to Bahdi's known knockout power.
