The only way there won’t be an undefeated fighter this Saturday at the Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens is if the judges decide to call it a draw. Otherwise, one of the two will lose their undefeated record
And the fight between Shakur Stevenson (23-0-0 11KOs) and William Zepeda (33-0-0-27 KOs) will be a high-voltage duel. In what sense? The WBC lightweight world title is at stake. And both are… left-handed.
Reasons why William Zepeda can knock Shakur Stevenson to the canvas
Stevenson vs Zepeda: Is it worth watching the fight live?
- Edgar Berlanga vs Hamzah Sheeraz(super middleweight) promises to be an explosive fight. There is no doubt that they will be the titans of the light heavyweight division. On the other hand, we have an equally anticipated fight between David Morrell and Imam Khataev. Those who purchase a ticket will have the opportunity to witness some titans of professional boxing
- The Dominican Alberto Puello will put his World Boxing Council super lightweight championship belt on the line against Puerto Rican Subriel Matias. This will be another attraction on the card
- The main fight will not take place at Madison Square Garden, the legendary arena, but in Queens, in a more intimate stadium, but this does not detract from the importance of the event. We are talking about two great fighters facing each other, two undefeated fighters, two styles, two schools. It should begin, according to the organizers, at 8 p.m. ET.
Since both fighters are of the opposite hand, the fight will be of high IQ. Left-handers are uncomfortable by nature, with the right hand in front and the left leg behind. This implies more head clashes because of the way the legs cross behind. Therefore, a fight with timing, distance and counter-punching is expected
And the PPV is not cheap. It’s $59.99, but it includes access to DAZN for a week. So you can watch boxing for seven days and enjoy the summer. The fight will be available in this way in 200 countries around the world.
Day: Saturday. Start time will be 6 p.m. ET, according to official announcement.
