Promoter Eddie Hearn says that he wants WBC to be obligatory William Zepeda to be another opponent of Shakur Stevenson if he wins in his rematch with Tevin Farmer on March 29 at Cancun.

Hearn states that Zepeda (32-0, 29 KO) was part of his original plan of three fights for Shakur (23-0, 11 KO) after he signed him, and still wants it to happen. The original road map, which Hearn had for Stevenson, when he dropped him into a contract with Mathroom, was aimed at taking these fights in this order:

1. Floyd Schofield
2. William Zepeda
3. Gervonta Davis

The match Schofield broke up after he pulled out the disease last week, thanks to which Hearn is necessary to apply for an exchange. He chose a pretender to Fringe, Josh Padley, who turned out to be a mistake on his part because he made Stevenson look like an average warrior in a lost effort.

Not Zepeda, what now?

Hearn wants to continue his original plan to exploit Zepeda as a stepping stone to get a fight with the tank, but it is not clear if it will happen. The head of Golden Boy, Oscar de la Hoya, died down, wanting to fight between Zeda and Shakur. It’s understandable why.

Zepeda can earn a lot more money by fighting Tank Davis than to face Stevenson, who is not an attraction of PPV, and the fight would cause a very diminutive interest in fans. What’s more, Shakur was running around the ring for 12 rounds, as he did against Edwin de Los Santos, playing on the playground for children. This is not engaging for fighters such as Zepeda, Golden Boy or fans.

“I don’t think you will see him in the ring until the back of the summer and we still want what we were promised in the road map, i.e. [William] Zepeda – said Eddie Hearn to Chris Mannix YouTube channel About who he wants the next one for Shakur Stevenson.

Padley fiasco

Shakura’s left -wet -fired left hand was seriously swollen during Padley’s fight, forcing him to exploit his right hand by most of his power. Although Stevenson could still exploit the left when throwing the body, he could not exploit it to throw himself on the head.

“I said I wanted Floyd Schofield, Zepeda, and then Tank. If we go straight to the tank, this is not a problem either. We would like to fight Zepeda. I think Shakur is getting better. People are queuing to criticize Shakur. He had three notice for Josh Padley, “Hearn said, justifying Stevenson’s impoverished performance against Elektryk Padley.

Needed plan B.

Hearn has to start thinking about using someone else for the next opponent of Shakur, because it is painfully obvious that Golden Boy is not interested in allowing him to fight Zepeda. These are more realistic options for Shakur:

– Ernesto Mercado
– Andy Cruz
– Abdullah Mason
– Raymond Muratalla
– Edwin de los Santos

“It wasn’t really an ideal situation, and Padley can fight. It is very hard when you were preparing for a bad blood fight with Floyd Schofield, and then suddenly it is not. This guy [Padley] He comes in and you’ve never really seen him. You watch a lot of material. I thought it was a good performance [from Shakur].

“He never lie down [in his career]. He thinks he is the best warrior in the world and wants to prove it. It was always a plan, “said Hearn, when it was asked what promotions Golden Boy say about the fight between Zepeda and Shakur Stevenson.

“Zepeda is a good warrior, and if he goes through the revenge of the farmer [on March 29th]Why not fight? You wouldn’t only fight if you didn’t think you could win and I understand it. There is a lot of money at the rate and he is [Zepeda] Mandatory for the world title. I hope this fight will be made – said Hearn.

Mike Tyson’s immortal power was observable in his entire career, but not in several exceptional circumstances.

One such case was that Tyson demolished in 38 seconds of the boxing room in Novel York, a victory widely omitted as a solid victory. Tyson contested Lou Savarese at Hampden Park in Great Britain as part of a farewell route.

Despite the fact that he is a crossing then, Savarese is a warrior who boasts solid performances. But because Mike destroyed Lou so quickly, Savarese was released as no one, especially in Great Britain.

Tyson knocked out only two fighters faster than Saverese in Marvis Frazier and Robert Colay, but none of them had Large Lou’s record. One quick look at Savarese and you immediately know that achieving Tyson is much better than on paper. As one of the 28-person Novel York Hall of Fame from 2020, the popular Savarese was formally introduced in Russo’s on the Bay at Howard Beach, Novel York.

Savarese was a local favorite. Born in Bronx and Greenwood Lake, he is a two -time Golden Gloves champion from Novel England, fighting in Madison Square Garden. Savarese changed his professional on April 30, 1989, establishing James Smith in the fourth round of their fight in Houston.

Savarese won his first 36 Fights Fights, emphasized by the last of them, technical victory in the seventh round on Buster Mathis, Jr. With triumph, Savarese stated that the heavyweight of the boxing association (USBA) in the United States (USBA). He also founded a clamorous start from 1997 with George Foreman in Atlantic City. In another good show, Savarese lost his twelfth phase decision (114-113, 112-115, 110-118) for the hardly respected free world [WBU] championship.

In addition, Savarese claims that his most essential knockout of the former world champion in hefty weight, James “Burster” Douglas for the International Association of World Boxing Title of Heavyweight, is his most essential achievement in the ring.

“I was a huge weaker in Douglas’s fight,” Savarese remembered. “He had a good stab. This is number one for me. My amateur attraction was to get my first Novel York Golden Gloves title [in 1985 when he stopped Jonathan Hill in the finals] before my fans, family and friends. “

He added that he expected him to take Tyson for later rounds.

“I don’t think he trained as strenuous as usual,” says Savarese. “It was a whole with Tyson at the moment of his career; You wanted to bring him to later rounds.

“It was a great opportunity. Another fight would be a lot of money. I felt confident. We had a good camp. I had good sparring and everything. “

Tyson brutally defeated Savarese when he continued the pursuit of another shot from the world. However, Lennox Lewis will prove to be a bridge too far two years later. Savarese turned out to be an uncomplicated victory of “the youngest man on the planet”, even though he apparently had a free night.

Despite the defeat of Tyson and the IBA add-on, Savarese won WBO Inter-Continental and IBA Continental Championships.

In addition to former world champions Douglas, Witherspoon and Mathis Jr., Savarese defeated the best contenders. This included hefty scales, such as David Bostice, Lance Whitaker and Leo Nolan.

“I fought six world champions. Evander Holyfield, Mike Tyson, foreman, Witherspoon, Douglas and Riddick Bowe in amateurs. Max Kellerman [formerly HBO] I once said that I was from oldschool boxing. That’s good. I love it. “

“I fought with a foreman and Holyfield, so I wasn’t intimidated. But I have been building for it for a long time since I won Novel York Golden Gloves in 1984. You must respect power. “

Savarese will always embody what a boxer from Novel York is. In addition, Mike Tyson won a significant victory that night in Scotland and knows about it.
