Oscar de la Hoya says William Zepeda told him that the champion in the lightweight category of WBC Shakur Stevenson has “Perfect style for me” to beat him next month on July 12th. Zeped (33-0, 27 ko) is seen as a underdog against Shakur (23-0, 11 ko), but he’s not worried about it. He sees Stevenson’s style as ideal for him to dominate. Zepeda says he “will drive Shakur out of the ring.” If Shakur runs all night, New Yorker will throw him off the stadium and the career will be over.
Shakur Vs. Zepeda will fight at 12-kos DAZN PPV at the Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York. Headliner is Edgar Berlang Vs. Hamzah Sheeraz, which is a great competition of super medium weight between two big blows.
De la hoya feels that Shakur’s glass hands He could betray him against Zepeda because he would have to be able to sit on his shots with full power to slow the Mexican volume. Even the two healthy hands, Shakur will have huge problems with the pressure of Zepeda. But with his fragile hands, this may be impossible.
You have to give Top Rank and Matchroom a lot of credit for managing Shakur about all dangerous blows to avoid being beaten repeatedly during your eight-year professional career. For this fight, he cannot protect himself from Zepeda because Turki Alalshikh pays him too much money.
Zeped predicts Stevenson upset
“It will be very difficult, but I constantly talk to William Zeped, and he keeps telling me and promising me,” Oscar, he has the perfect style for me. Believe me, I’ll drive him out of the ring, “said the promotor Oscar de la Hoya to Golden Boy promotions When asked how William Zeped will beat the champion in the lightweight category of WBC, Shakura Stevenson on July 12th.
For Zeped, this may not be difficult. The hardest part for him will be chased by Shakura down, because once he landed him, he would land, he would chop him. Zepeda will shoot all the footage that Stevenson throws to lower his volume of the shot on his body and head.
“I’m thinking,” Wait, Shakur is not thin. You know, he has the defense that is very difficult to break, but it is very difficult. “If William Zeped in his a-ite, and he puts a constant pressure that I don’t know, because Shakur Stevenson, everyone knows he has broken hands,” De La Hoya said.
If Zepeda struggles as in his rematch with Tev’s farmer last March in Cancun, Shakur will be difficult to survive through the sixth round. The farmer, which is much stronger, bigger and firmer than Stevenson, looked like he was on the verge of caves in the first half. He turned his back on Zepedi, as if he had raised the white flag of surrender. Fortunately for Tevin, the judge did not stop the fight, as many others would have.
“It doesn’t hit too hard, or people say it, as long as you’re not in the ring, right? Then you hit you and feel a kick. On paper, this is a great match. It is the perfect opportunity for the winner to go out and become a star,” De La Hoya said.
Oscar sounds off here, saying beautiful things about Shakur. He did not look good in any of his last two struggles, although he coincided against mediocre opposition. Since Stevenson’s catastrophic appearance against Edwin de Los Santos 2023, he fought these weak blows and is still not impressed:
– Josh Padley
– Arttem Harutyunyan
