Shakur Stevenson Shows Support For Raymond Ford Before O’Shaquie Foster Fight

Stevenson’s message of support for Ford sparked a wave of replies predicting Foster will retain his WBC super featherweight title in Houston

Shakur Stevenson showed support for Raymond Ford ahead of Saturday night’s title fight with O’Shaquie Foster, but many fans were not convinced. The replies to Stevenson’s post quickly filled with predictions that Foster would retain his WBC super featherweight title in Houston.

The replies were filled with predictions of an O’Shaquie Foster victory, with some arguing Ford is headed into a fight he can’t win and others suggesting Stevenson will have little to say if his close friend comes up short.

Ford is walking into the lion’s den in Houston, and Foster is coming in with all the momentum after completely neutralizing Stephen Fulton back in December. When a guy is fighting in the champion’s backyard and already admitting in interviews that he feels like a true underdog, it is easy for that to be interpreted as a lack of confidence rather than just standard pre-fight psychology.

The fan reaction to Shakur is standard social media behavior, but they are hitting on a real trend. Twitter trolls are already licking their chops, waiting to see if Stevenson goes completely silent on the platform if things go sideways for Ford on Saturday night. If Foster puts on a defensive clinic and schools Ford, Shakur is going to catch a massive amount of secondary heat just for being associated with the loss.

Zay bop and Savage time let’s get it 😤

The replies quickly shifted away from Ford’s chances and toward expectations for Saturday night’s main event, with many fans openly backing Foster to retain his title.

“Let’s see how quiet u get after Foster put belt to ass to your fake lil bro bro 😂😂😂”

“Idk bout ray, kur. ⚡ a problem”

“I bet your bitch ass not betting on Ray”

Some fans also used the post to revisit Stevenson’s own history with Foster and comments he has made in the past about potentially fighting him.

“I just know you not fighting foster after this. You said you’d give him an opp if he give lil Raymond an opp. You also said you don’t do rehydrations though and now want one for Haney and Benn. Duck.”

“You still gone run that fade you said you would if he fight jr first”

Others simply wanted answers about Stevenson’s next move.

“When are you fighting next???”

Ford will attempt to take Foster’s WBC super featherweight title on Saturday night in Houston. Judging by the reaction to Stevenson’s post, however, many fans believe Foster is heading into the fight as the man to beat, and see Ford facing a difficult task when they meet in the ring.
