Following his recent triumph in the ring, Floyd Schofield has taken to social media with a strong message. The undefeated American boxer, who now holds a record of 18 wins, 0 losses, and 0 draws, made it clear he’s ambitious about facing the biggest names in his division. On his official X account (formerly Twitter), Schofield took aim at some of the top contenders and revealed an unexpected change to his contract just moments before his fight.
On November 2, Schofield faced Mexican fighter René Téllez Girón in a match held in Las Vegas, USA. During the fight, Schofield showcased his technical skill and resilience, defeating Téllez Girón by unanimous decision after 12 rounds.
Floyd Schofield revealed he had initially prepared for a 10-round fight but was notified in the locker room that his contract had been altered to 12 rounds.
In his post on X, Schofield expressed, “We were scheduled and trained for 10 rounds, but in the locker room they changed my contract to 12 rounds and had us initial. So keep sleeping on KID if you want. All this experience he is gaining will make him the greatest ever.”
Schofield, who has knocked down 12 of his 18 opponents, has caught the public’s and critics’ attention with his impressive skills and determination. At just 21 years old, the boxer sees the future as a challenge full of opportunities, where he hopes to face the best of his generation.
Schofield’s post on X also included a direct challenge to notable figures in current boxing. In his message, he tagged Gervonta Davis, Shakur Stevenson, and Keyshawn Davis, sending a clear message: “@Gervontaa @ShakurStevenson @KeyshawnDavis8… you all can get it. Time is on our side, not yours.”
Among the possible opponents Floyd Schofield could face next are renowned names such as Keyshawn Davis, Shakur Stevenson, William Zepeda, Joseph ‘Jo Jo’ Díaz, and Tevin Farmer. Each of these matches would represent a significant challenge for Schofield, who continues to climb the ranks and aims to establish himself as one of boxing’s future stars.
