Did Zuffa Boxing Just Sign Stevenson and Haney?
Plenty of eyebrows were raised when Dana White and Turki Alalshikh locked down the services of Conor Benn for a reported $15 million, one-fight deal . That was further elevated after “The Destroyer” inked a long-term extension with Zuffa Boxing. But it seems the powerhouse promoters are far from done signing top talent, as recent rumors suggested that current WBC Lightweight and WBO and The Ring Junior Welterweight champion, Shakur Stevenson , and current WBO Welterweight champion, Devin Haney , had joined the upstart boxing promotion.
During last night’s (Sun. , May, 10, 2026) Zuffa Boxing 6 post-fight press conference in Las Vegas, Nevada, White addressed the rumors and seemed to indicate that news of the signings was indeed imminent. “Did we announce the Shakur Stevenson…no?
Possibly,” responded White with a grin when asked if the news was true. “Listen, at the end of the day I think that everybody is going to be here at Zuffa Boxing,” before he was asked about the talks of Haney joining the roster. “I think that everybody is going to be at Zuffa Boxing, eventually,” he said with an even bigger smile on his face.
“Like I said at our first press conference, at the end of 2026, I said judge us by our body of work as we head into 2027. I don’t know why I would say things that aren’t true,” He added. “I mean look at what we have done in just four months, look at tonight and look at how these guys are fighting right now.
Tonight was a great card and they are only gong to get better. ” Just last week Bill Haney – -Devin’s father — teased that his son had inked a new $100 million deal, further adding fuel to the fire. New deal worth over 100 million before 30 years old?
