Shakur Stevenson reportedly gave up his second fight with the two fighting contract with Eddie Hearna’s match and will cooperate with Promoter Lou Dibela in order to defend his featherlight WBC belt against William Zepeda on the card on July 12 in Fresh York.
Flat fee contract
Stevenson signed a contract with Hearn in 2024 and fought only once, stopping electrician Josh Padley in the ninth round of February 22 in Riyadh. Hearn wanted to plan the fight for Shakur against Joe Cordin in October last year, but he suffered a hand injury during training.
Dan Rafael reports This Shakur (23-0, 11 KO) hired Dibella on “Flat -rate fee“In the case of Zepeda (33-0, 27 KO)” it will do much less than the promoter who had him on the basis of a contract. “
Then he will be a free agent. He says Stevenson gets “In the middle of 7 figures “ to fight Zepeda. So Shakur will receive a day of payment of $ 4 to $ 7 million for Zepeda’s fight. It will be cheaper for Shakur with Dibella than if he was still covered by a contract with Hearn.
Some fans on social media perceive Stevenson’s decision to leave Hearna as an act ingratitude and betrayal. In the end he helped win his name, praising him in interviews, and gave him an basic fight with Padley, not risky against the Cuban knockout artist Jadier Herrera on the card on February 22. Hearn could throw Shakur with Herreca and he would have to escape from the 22-year-old because he has power.
Resignation
“Reporting the card on July 12 with Shakur-Zepeda, a source with knowledge of the specifications, told me that Shakur parted from Matchroom and his manager, James Prince, hired Lou Dibella as his promoter of this event,” said Rafael.
“He had two fights with Matchroom, he made one, apparently each party could give up after the first. He was not in a long -term contract.”
It may not be a great loss for Hearn. Look at the radiant side. He gets rid of a warrior whose fans perceive as pressure sores, and will be worthless for everyone if he loses or goes out poorly against Zepeda.
Shakur cannot fight how Tevin Farmer against Zepeda, because he lacks the size, power and endurance to deal with this kind of pressure. Shakur will have to fight Zepeda so that he will not be eliminated. If he does, his glass hands could break down.

Can Haney recover? Rosado warns that the ramirez test is too harsh to find a warrior after the first loss

April 21, 2025
Gabe Rosado believes that Jose Ramirez is “improper choice “ For Devin Haney, to return in the first fight for over a year, a bad defeat with Ryan Garcia on April 20.
Rosado believes that the former WBC and WBO Ramirez (29-2, 18 KO) champion still fights at a high level, despite his 10-round unanimous loss of Arnold Barbozy Jr. November 16.
Fears of trust
Haney (31-0, 15 KO) will fight Ramirez, 32, in Ryan Garcia vs. Rolando “Rolly” Romero Undercard at the Times Square in Novel York. The event will be shown live on DAZN PPV for USD 59.99.
What Gabe has doubts with Haney is his confidence. He believes that his faith in himself has disappeared because of the way Ryan beat him. He says that this kind of loss can spoil his mind.
“I think Haney is a better warrior on paper, but Ramirez is an improper choice to come back. I feel that the ramist is powerful, he is sturdy and by postponing this fight barbose, he did not look terrible and was not badly defeated,” said Gabe Rosado Fight Hub tv About the fight Devin Haney vs. Jose Ramirez on May 2 at the Times Square in Novel York.
Trust in Devin
It is surprising that Bill Haney agreed to the choice of Jose Ramirez as a returning opponent of Devin, because he is not a typical opponent to which he gave the green delicate. Bill tried to choose the opposition for Devin. When he fought with a good opposition, it was always with some advantage over them.
For example, when Haney fought with Vasily Lomachenko, he looked on two heavier divisions in the ring and was much younger. Loma was 35 years senior when he fought Devin and competed three divisions above his natural weight class in a featherweight.
Bill had to have no other choice, as Devin could fight Jose Ramirez to get a great payment for the fight on the Fatal Fury card from May 2. There was a mismatch in the main event between Ryan Garcia and Rolando “Rolly” Romero. So the coefficient involving Haney had to be a competitive 50-50, because fans would not be interested in buying an event if all three fights were oblique to the warrior and against Ham & Eggers.
The way of thinking to puncture
“I think it was an ideal style to re -assess what he did wrong and make corrections entering the fight with Haney. I think he must make corrections, and then we have to see where Haney’s mind is, if he is his confidence,” said Rosado.
“Because there is one to look good and be torn, but where there is confidence. I have never been as wounded as Haney, but I can only imagine what a warrior is doing. So Haney has the opportunity to show us that he is a special warrior. So it’s his opportunity to show us:” I am this guy. ” So if he does it, my hat is for him – Gabe said.

No spark: doubts are growing compared to the future of Ben Whittaker after winning with Liam Cameron

Liam Cameron (23-7-1, 10 KO) went along a high road, not deciding to complain about the quick losing TKO in the second round against the lithe ponderous weight Ben Ben Whittaker (9-0-1, 6 KO) in a rematch at the Resorts World Arena in Birmingham, England.
34 -year -old Cameron showed his class, criticizing judge Howard Foster for prematurely stopping the fight in the second round after Whittaker threw him. Ben led anything significant leading to detention, but Foster decided to wave it.
Fans on social media baked a judge, saying that he was a classic British interruption. Cameron was not bitter because of the ending. He mentioned after the fight that “He earned a fortune “ In a rematch today with money changing money.
Comparison of Morrella
The 27 -year -old Silver Olympic medalist in 2020 is too elderly to fight at this level, and it becomes clear that he does not intend to move in the ranks of Pro. He is at the same age as the former world champion in two divisions David MorrellBut he is still continued during the training. Morrell did not fight at the Olympic Games, but developed more skills than Ben in the Cuban national team. It was imported faster.
Whittaker’s promoter must find out what to do with him, because it seems that it requires protection similar to Hamzah Sheeraz. He lacks a spark that would indicate that he was able to fight the world -class opposition.
“Become defeated by a better man. He was a silver Olympic medalist. I gave him a difficult time in a Saudis. I thought I could do it again. He went again, got a professional team and returned stronger. Good work,” said Liam Cameron to do it Boxing king mediaTalking about his loss with Ben Whittake tonight.
Cameron can rethink his whipping Whittaker after he looks at the replay to see that he never had the opportunity because of his early arrest. This fight should allow for continuation instead of being detained by a judge, Foster.
Getting fans
“He is high and edged,” said Cameron, asked if he expected Ben to come out tonight. “Being a popular guy, he doesn’t force me to win fights, but I will take it to the grave forever. It’s boxing. In one, two, three fights, they [fans] he can love him [Whittaker] him after a while. It will be one switch, just like with me. “
The only way fans will start to like Whittaker is that his fights will stop ending with controversy, and if he beat guys at the highest level in 175 instead of choosing meters of 168 pounds. If Ben wants to be liked by fans, then he must fight David Morrell or David Benavidez and prove that he can beat them. I wouldn’t give Whittaker a chance against any of these guys, but if at least he tried, you could respect it.
“It happened. The fight happened that way,” said Cameron about his loss. “Look where I am. I don’t like to say it, but I got an absolute fortune. It’s not for me. It’s for my children. It’s all for me. I never thought that I would earn what I deserved tonight.
“I put everything in my strength and conditioning. We did everything perfectly. You can say that he wanted the crowd to like him,” said Cameron about Whittaker. “He must figure it out and recover it.”
