    All directions point to this fight happening next year. Both fighters want it and it should be fairly easy to finalize. 3rd defense for Stevenson. 2nd shot for Roach to claim a major title at lightweight. It would be a pretty solid technical fight.

    Great fight but I still can't believe Tank ducked a rematch with Roach just to fight an exhibition against Jake Paul. Tank is a fool for this one. SMDH

    I like this fight. Most fans probably won't when they're in the ring though, mind you. But it's a good fight.

    Doesn't surprise me Teofimo is being a diva.

    Roach has had a bit of an iffy record until he really beat Gervonta, so it is about a credible enough opponent for Shakur.

    Not many other options otherwise, Gervonta is taking the circus route. Roach is more proven than Muratalla, Keyshawn and Schofeld.
