Floyd Schofield Jr. still wasn’t ready this week to clarify what happened to him four months ago in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The undefeated Schofield declined to comment on the strange situation twice Thursday during a press conference to help promote the lightweight contender’s fight against Tevin Farmer on the Jake Paul-Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. undercard Saturday night. Schofield was hospitalized four days before he was scheduled to challenge WBC lightweight champ Shakur Stevenson on February 22 at ANB Arena in Riyadh, which led the British Boxing Board of Control to remove him from their fight.

The BBBofC regulated the February 22 card for Riyadh Season, the financial backer of that pay-per-view event. Schofield was adamant about wanting to move forward with his fight versus Stevenson, but his hospitalization so close to their 12-round, 135-pound championship match made that impossible.

Schofield’s father, Floyd Sr., speculated on social media when the younger Schofield was hospitalized that his son was poisoned. Schofield Sr. didn’t specify who poisoned his son or how.

Todd Grisham, who moderated the aforementioned press conference for DAZN, first asked Schofield to enlighten the public as to what took place in Riyadh.

“So, I don’t really wanna get too much on that topic,” Schofield replied. “But … it is what it is. You know, people gonna believe it, some people [don’t]. You know, I didn’t get to take the fight. So, I’m here now.”

Schofield was pressed for an answer again when reporters and videographers were permitted to ask questions later Thursday. The Austin, Texas native passed again, though he did elaborate as to why he couldn’t comment.

“So, the whole reason is if I put out what’s out there, it’s gonna like blow – it’s gonna be too much,” Schofield said. “So, we lettin’ Golden Boy and the Saudis handle that. So, you know, I can’t overlook Tevin. That’s what we’re focused on.”

Stevenson told The Ring last month he didn’t believe Schofield had any intention of moving forward with their fight on the Dmitry Bivol-Artur Beterbiev undercard once Schofield arrived in Riyadh the previous week high above the lightweight limit of 135 pounds.

Oscar De La Hoya, Schofield’s promoter, previously told The Ring that he and other representatives from his company were in the process of uncovering more information related to Schofield’s hospitalization. De La Hoya hasn’t revealed any of those details to date.

Schofield (20-0, 12 KOs) will face Philadelphia’s Farmer (33-8-1, 8 KOs, 1 NC) in a 10-round lightweight bout that will open DAZN Pay-Per-View’s five-fight Paul-Chavez event from Honda Center in Anaheim, California. It is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. PT (8 p.m. ET) in the United States and costs $59.99.
