Boxer Shakur Stevenson aims to become a triple champion as he faces Edwin De Los Santos Thursday November 16th in the vacant WBC Lightweight title bout. With an impressive 20-0 record and 10 KOs, Shakur is a proven champion, winning a WBO featherweight title, WBO junior lightweight and the WBC 130 pound title and looks to add to his next belt in a Thursday Night Las Vegas bout on ESPN.
Although young in age, Shakur's story starts long ago as he represented USA boxing in the Olympics and felt his first heartbreak as an athlete, a feeling he carries with him today to guide his approach to the sport he loves. He opens up to Ryan, Channing and Fred on how that experience shaped him and something he considers the biggest pivot in his life because it taught him what he never wanted to experience again. Extremely confident and outspoken, Shakur has chosen to allow his work in the ring to do the talking for him and lives by a motto of never backing down from anyone.
Being mentored by some of the sport's greatest to fight, Andre Ward, Bud Crawford and Floyd Mayweather...Shakur has his sights set on becoming a legend and enshrined in boxing history as one of the best to ever do it. Understanding and prioritizing that training is all year round and being disciplined all the time, not just fight time, is one major takeaway Shakur has modeled his career after from his mentors. Having a marketing component is also his edge as he continues to build his super star status in the sport, recently signing a mega deal with Adidas, amassing a large social media following and working with entertainment A-listers Drake and managed by J Prince.
His upcoming championship fight is a defining one, but it's also necessary for Shakur to dominate his opponent in order to attract the bigger name fights of Gervontaa Davis and Devin Haney's of the sport, Shakur is not shy on speaking up that he is ready for these mega fights and believes he is the best fighter in the sport.
As a young father, Shakur talks about how having a daughter has changed him and motivated him even more, pushing him to be a winner but also a good man. Shakur's title bout vs De Los Santos kicks of F1 week in Las Vegas and is set for Thursday November 16, 2023 on ESPN, The Pivot Podcast releases premiere episodes every Tuesday with audio available at 9AMest and streaming on CZcams at 12PMest. Fridays are special drops during football season at 3:30pest.

That Seahawks/Patriots Superbowl had me feeling the same way.
I'm from Seattle,I was sick as a dog when I seen that...
Me to😮 from Seattle
whats makes it even worse they threw it on 1st down on the 1 yard line😭😭
With the beast in the back field. I'm a Falcons fan and couldn't believe our SB whenever they had it and just didn't run the rock down the field and win it. Smh
The NFL did not want Beast Mode to be the NFL Super Bowl MVP and nether did Pete Carroll. And over that stupidness they lost and the team fell apart!
Y’all doing better than top rank promoting this fight for him 🔥
Top Rank is the one who set up the interview goofy.
@@rikkisoumpholphakdy1104yeah they wouldn’t have called him first unless he was fighting Haney lol nobody cares about this fight
@@rikkisoumpholphakdy1104 bullshit😂 regardless this better promotion than wat they are doing on their top rank page
FACTS!
@@tristanxjason23:55 😅😊
One of the few young boxers that can really take the sport to the next level. Just waiting to see him against one of the other top undefeated boxers! Salute to The Pivot for spotlighting this Young Bull!!!!
Did Ryan Clark just really asked the pivot question after Fred confirmed with him already that Rio was Shakurs biggest pivot??? Two many hits
I was just saying the same thing…
I also thought the same thing. That was weird. He gave the same answer
I been saying no one was seeing Shakur at 130 when he was rising now at 135 he got that division on lock. He's a different breed, generational fighter. Can't wait to see him fight this month it's going to be special.
He turned down a fight with Devin Haney
😆 🤣 😂 126 and 130 was a very very weak division!!! Shakur hasn't fought an elite fighter!!! He's an average fighter with very limited offensive arsenal
2 words "Tank Davis"💯
@@trenellcarter1663 What are you basing that on?
6 months later he still ain't fought nobody
Let’s talk about it…..Ryan’s sweatshirt game is unmatched 🔥🔥🔥
Or Freddie Ts Tshirt game 😂
You must be young because anyone of an older generation would know Cliff Huxtable in the Cosby show had the coldest sweatshirt game! Lol
@@sterlingsterling4701I’m old enough to watch the Cosby show bro lol. Cliff dad sweatshirt game was on point, but if you wanna take it there…Martin on the Martin show HBCU/90s black culture sweatshirt game is GOAT!!! 😂
@@_jaynola_FACTS. Martin was the goat of that and always had the Jordan’s to match 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This young man seems thoughtful and real, he isnt afraid to be himself. Too often young men in the sports world are afraid to truly show their personality. He isnt afraid to speak on his negative moments as well as his positive moments. Hope to see more young men who aren't afraid to be themselves and media who isnt there to judge them.
Seems
“I think he had lil cold feet” yo shakur funny as hell 😂😂
There will be another Floyd , Tyson, Ali , Shakur, tank …these are generationally god gifted
how did you forget haney? but added tank just wondering
@@1GEESKI cmon lol…
I fw tank more but I was just curious cause haney still is doing great shit in boxing cant deny greatness. @@DjGaiden
@@1GEESKI Tank has god gifted skills…Haney is like B Hopkins
@@Antdaboxer215 Name the top 5 in that division
The most talented fighter in
boxing period big fan
Great show guys. Can't wait to watch the fight.keep up the hard work young shakur.
I adore Shakur and his passion for the fight game. Not to mention he's from Jersey 💪🏽
Great interview first time seeing him talk much respect
All of his are dope
Great episode. Great questions. None of that messy propaganda nonsense that we already have too much of. Salute fellas and folks behind the scenes.💯
Another great interview fellas!💜🥰 Had never heard of this young man. Now I will be looking for his fights!!
What ? Never heard of him???? Must not live near NJ or NY
The Boys Are Back!!!! More 🔥!!!! More 🔥!!!! More 🔥!!!! Salute To Stevenson Real One !!! 💯!!!💪🏾✊🏾!!!
Super proud of shakur met his g pop in irvington at the Chris Gatlin center . Had plans on training with him and His youth until I moved from the area that I used to live in. Super proud of Shakur. BrickCity bred!!! Jersey...weequahic section/southward...
Love this podcast! Best on CZcams. Made me a Stevenson fan
Good stuff men! Shakur has some much upside potential. I love his mindset.
Love the interview: Good Luck to Shakur Stevenson in his fight coming up.
Great interview guys. Shakur for the win by UD.
What a lovely young man. Very nice discussion, fellas.
You always manage to bring out the realest part of anyone you interview. It is beautiful.
Don't want y'all to inteview me. Lol.
To be the best, you got to beat the best! - Whoooo Nature Boy
Lmaooooo Chan funny asf!!! “Don’t get in that ring with him tho” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I been waiting for this mane!!!
Great interview 👏🏽
Freddie T asked already 😂 love this show!
Shakur used to come Hoop at the gym in VA solid dude fasho. Made me start watching boxing again
The best boxer in the game right now
Favorite boxer right now.
I really fool with Shakur... definitely one if my favs. Looking forward to this next fight.
I got floor seats for his fight. Third time seeing kur. My fav boxer. Vaquero a beast too. Looking forward to it
That was rough
The Future Goat!! Salute young bull, I hope you get everything you deserve & some young King!!
Has the style of the great ones
Highly skilled boxer
🇵🇷
Shakur need to get a sponsorship from those fresh ass glasses💯
I wish we would stop saying these fighters don’t want smoke and don’t run from anybody. If you were able to just take a peak behind the curtain and see exactly how things are approached, it would really open a lot of eyes. My family has been blessed enough to be able to be a part of some of these fighters journeys and the things that is said in front of a camera is night and day difference than what is said behind closed doors. I love SS and alot of these young fighters, but *most* of them do not really want to fight each other. Someone has to lose, and no matter what people say, a loss is damaging to a career, especially when the mystique is gone and you can no longer say no one can beat you. Absolutely hate that’s the way it is, but that’s what it expressed behind closed doors and unless the money is astronomical, these fights have a small chance of happening.
Best perspective I heard and damn near agree with u it’s sound too right man but in reality somebodies O got too go
That’s exactly why boxing gone lose its respect, there’s 10 guys walking around claiming they the greatest and none of them want to actually prove it
It’s a terrible system. They need a damn season structure
1000% agree. Robs the fans.
Boxing will be a farce until the promoters and fighters get rid of that mentality. MMA will continue to take up market space and Boxing will probably be left behind.
Best pod on CZcams
Such a sweet young man, I won't be able to watch him fight and get hit. I wish him well 🥊
Shakur ❤
Dope show as always 👊🏿
Great interview ❤
Send'n Terrific Tuesday Vibes Y'all Way (Pivot, Pivoters & Shakur Stevenson)
Bud came thru with some great questions.
Dude been in Houston so long he even got a Houston swag 😂😂😂😂😂
Great interview
Outstanding 🎉
Luv the Pivot! But, I need Ryan's sweatshirt. 😫 Nice Christmas gift.
He always be having dope hoodies but I never can find them. He need to post the label so we can support.
@@MLYJ10L Agreed
i love yall for doing a sit down with my favorite boxer in the game right now # brandon just hating
Theme song flow and cadence is ridic! 🔥
#2 at 135 he talent is raw. Love his style. He will be great
Another great podcast
The intro so hard I let it play through 💯
Awesome young man
Hardworking, humble and honest tempered with confidence...the things that you need to succeed. You have to be honest with yourself about where you are, accept the criticism of those who know you and know your craft(mentors) and block out the noise of the naysayers! I must say that he was on point about that Seahawks vs Patriots game...that was a bad look for the league!
Santos must've saw this video and said, hold my beer!
I'm not a big boxing fan, but I enjoyed this interview. This young man looks to be about 16 years old.
Add 10 more years
@@MT-zm4tn I know how old he is, I was talking about how young he look.
He will be the next greatest boxer of all times! Trust. God Bless y’all!
Shakur the baby goat of boxing once dudes stop ducking him the world going see. Sadly he reminds me a lot of Bud guys going try to wait him out and try to catch him as an old man
Facts! The problem with that is, they’re not realizing they’re getting older, too.
Great sit down champs🫡
That’s crazy that’s literally the moment I was done with football too 😂😂😂💯 I was just telling my boy about this shyt
The Pivot 🔥💪🏾
He should’ve took the Haney fight he would’ve been getting ready to be undisputed lightweight champ!
He didn't say no. He enforced his mandatory to put the pay share in their hands, and Dev went up to 140. Ngl Dev shouldn't gave been fighting at 135 regardless but he was bluffing with tht offer then didn't want to fight because he didn't want to see what the sanctioning bodies ruling was gonna be. He could've gotten 60/40 or 75/25 but he didn't wanna see Shakur regardless so he went to fight Regis. That is facts
@@joshgallemore3593 He activated a mandatory for the wbc belt but he was offered all the belts. It was an easy sweet lick. He should’ve called it if it was really a bluff indeed. You get a drained Haney for all the belts and your biggest payday! He should’ve definitely took that fight!
@@joshgallemore3593I think Devin could end up fighting Shakur eventually, but Dev looked like a skeleton at 135.
@@jarvisthetaurusDevin wouldn't fight him drained. They make pretty smart decisions.
@@Earthtone330they didn’t film Devin’s official weigh in against Loma because he looked so bad.
Another banger fellas!
Whoooo amazing 👏🏼
Freddy T looks great!! You can tell he has been in the gym!! Fun podcast guys...keeping it light and playful!! :) 🥊💪🥊
Ready for the next time that golf cart pulls up!!! 😂
@@brycejennings8713 lmao!!! For sure!!! I cant stand to even look at his face anymore let alone hear the clout chasing b.s. he is spewing!!
Stevenson the beast people don't want to fight him cause he embarrassed people 100% team Shakur all day!!!!!
I’m watching that fight definitely!
I had to search hard for this video 😤
MY BOI BOUT TO PUT ON A DOMINANT PERFORMANCE NOV 16

Them Glasses 🕶️ Krispy Shakur Salute 🫡
The Seahawks game and Cam with the panthers.
Man everybody knows about that embarrassing moment 😭😭 us 12s can’t catch a break
Abdullah Mason- HE'S COMIN'!!
Naw when the ravens was blowing out the 49ers in 2013 SB and they shut off the lights 😂😂😂
Hell yea!
I might be the only person in America that remembers the live cutscene of marshawn laughing in Pete’s face
Love yawl brothas
Defo can see how he’s been mentored by ward with that rucksack 🤣🤣
My guy shakur really him
This my favorite 135
Channing vs Wilder make it happen 😂
Why would RC ask what was his biggest Pivot when Fred DID cover that topic??
Was he not listening or something?
Yo! Great Show Guys Throw Chef Niecey on a show that food used to look good. LOL
I am athlete only had 7k views in 7 hrs last show 🤦🏾♂️ y’all killed B. Marshall show 😂
I do believe Shakur is the best in boxing
best fighter rn
He is no doubt the next great champion
More boxers please 🙏🏾
Ryan sweatshirt is Crazy!!!
Right now Shakur is the best fighter in the world .
Great podcast, guys!!!! PPL I WANNA SEE ON HERE IS DAMON DASH, HARRISON, JADAKISS, WILL SMITH, JADA PINKETT SMITH, RAY LEWIS, ETC
4:05 = it’s not the losing. It’s the very high risk of ending up severely injured, disabled, or passing on. And this has been seen throughout the years with great talent and phenomenal fighters. So it has to be more of an obsession nowadays vs love if you love boxing. Because people fight for their families and a better life. And Premadonna’s aren’t trying to end up on the wrong side with money. It has to be a real barbarian to box just to box.
If Shakur is the best, why doesn't it feel like he is?
Let’s goooooo!!!!💯💯💯
Fred gotta get in the ring with B Marshall 😂😂😂 what yal think
Fred gon whip his gd azz!!!
@@cherrylreeves129 🤣🤣🤣
Dan Lebatard next PLEASE!!! That would be dope!!!
I stopped watching football after that play too 😂
The best yungin in the game. Him vs the field, I’ll take him pause!!
I feel em on the NFL Football rigged crap. I believe the NFL workin with Vegas, & sports betting in general. 🤦🏾♂️
