James Toney Slams Shakur Stevenson's Style: 'He's Boring' | Boxing Legend's Take (2026)

Boxing legend James Toney has sparked debate by criticizing Shakur Stevenson's recent victory over Teofimo Lopez. Toney, a three-division world champion, believes Stevenson's performance was unexciting and lacks the flair he displayed during his own career. Toney's comments come despite Stevenson's impressive record of 25-0 with 11 knockouts, and his unanimous decision win over Lopez, which earned him the WBO super-lightweight title and a place in the history books as a four-division world champion. Toney suggests that Stevenson needs to unleash his inner 'dog' and embrace a more aggressive, dynamic fighting style to truly captivate audiences and live up to the legend's expectations.
