Shakur Stevenson may fight at lightweight after he fights at 130lbs against Robson Conceicao.

Stevenson is the current WBC and WBO junior lightweight champion and he makes a defence of his two belts on September 23.

The unbeaten American may decide then to move up to 135lbs, which has seen Teofimo Lopez depart, before Ryan Garcia also announced he would ‘never’ fight in the division again. 

Speaking to BoxingScene.com, Stevenson discussed his future plans.

“We gotta see,” he said.

“It’s all up in the air right now. It’s all depending on how I’m feeling. Going up to 135 is not out the way and staying at 130 is not out the way. It’s all depending on what I feel and how I feel after this fight. So, we’re gonna see. 

“Maybe I’ll go up to 135 for one fight, and then come back down to 130. You never know. I can play with it like that. I feel like I’m that good.”
