William Zepeda told today at a press conference in Novel York that he wants to check if Shakur Stevenson supports his standing words and fight him on July 12 at the Louis Armstrong stadium in Queens. The undefeated Zepeda (33-0, 27 KO) says that he expected Stevenson (23-0, 11 KO) fled to boxing, as always, not stand and snail.

Promoter Shakura, Eddie Hearn, said that he wants the title of Ring Lightweight to be threatened with the fight of Stevenson-Zepeda, making the winner the “King of Division.”

“A man on my left, if he was from Great Britain, would be what we call the absolute treasure. He would be a superstar,” he said Eddie Hearn During today’s press conference, talking about Shakur Stevenson. “It should not only be a boxing superstar, but also a superstar of American sport. He is 27 years elderly, world champion in three divisions, and he has never sweated.”

The reason why Shakur is not a superstar is because of this:

1. Lifeless combat style: Stevenson is a runner.
2. Destitute CV: his victory in the age of 126 and 130 were against the smaller warriors, many of whom were washed. At the age of 135, Shakur was terribly against Edwin de Los Santos, the only decent warrior he met in this weight class. Fans routinely win his fights, and many of them pass in half.
3. Not wanting to take risks when he is called.
4. Reputation of protection by your promoters

“Eric Gomez [of Golden Boy] He said that comparing him with Floyd Mayweather. I also put it on with such as Sugar Ray Leonard, Pernell Whitaker, all great. This man is so good [Stevenson] It is – continued Hearn with Oszlene Shakur. “But for greatness you need a great opponent, and this is William Zepeda. This is a fight in which Shakur Stevenson will show everyone how wonderful and how special he is.

“I know that the ring belt is empty. This belt should be on the line for Shakur and William Zepeda on July 12,” said Hearn. “You will see why Shakur Stevenson is one of the biggest fighters. They are two fighters who deserve to be the king of the division. He should be crowned with king on July 12.

Zepeda: Stand and fight

“I think that on July 12 the world will know who William Zepeda is,” said Zepeda. “I don’t care what Eddie says. I hope Shakur does what he says, that he will do, stand and fight. Shakur says that he stands and fights, let’s stand and fight. We have plan AI Plan B. says that he will stand and fight with me, but he will have to return to the box.”

“I come to perform. I come there to get the best performance in my career,” said Shakur. “Nothing else can.

“I don’t sleep at William Zepeda. I have to close myself and step on him. That’s what I have to do,” said Shakur.

“I want to be known as a Mexican legend,” Zepeda said.

“It can’t be. Of course, I want to fight the tank, but if Zepeda didn’t pass, there is no fight against the tank,” said Shakur.

“I leave his **,” said Shakur Stevenson about his forecast of fighting with William Zeda.

“I have to prepare a million percent. I have to try to stop this fight,” Zepeda said.

Eddie Hearn says Ryan Garcia is “In a little mess“After losing to Rolando Romero on May 2 in Times Square. He says that Ryan (24-2, 20 KO) must “come back” from this failure and win a rematch with Devin Haney to be profitable.

Hearn also believes that Haney must achieve another victory after his performance at the Times Square party against Jose Ramirez. He mentioned that Devin looked “petrified” and talked about someone who would tell him that he He resembled a “hare” With its brisk movement around the ring.

Garcia needs a win

“I’m worried more about Ryan than Devin. Entering the fight [on May 2nd at Times Square]I was more worried about Devin – said Eddie Hearn Fight Hub tv, Speaking of his fears about Ryan Garcia. “Although Devin did not look great, after the victory he acquired the momentum and I think that the next time he would be better.”

Garcia looked terrible during his fight with Rolando “Rolly” Romero on May 2, and you can say that he was later broken up. Ryan was crying in an ambulance after a defeat against Rolly. As he looked, Garcia will be strenuous to come back from this failure.

“Ryan has some mess, really. He must come back, win. I think he should defeat Rolly, “said Hearn.” We saw behind closed doors that this atmosphere has an impact on performances, but you know what to expect, “said Hearn about the fight against a diminutive crowd in Times Square.

Garcia may not be in a “mess” if Turks Alalshikh is ready to match him to Devin Haney in October. Everyone has heard Turks today at a press conference that Ryan vs. Haney Rematch is still the one he wants. He didn’t say how brisk, but considering the way he said, it would probably be like that. If Turki wants Kingry to take another fight, he will have to make sure that it is against someone who has marginal talent and has no impact strength. Every 10 best contenders up to 140 or 147 would be very risky for Garcia.

Hearn blames the environment

“I was very nervous that Ryan did not occur because I was very joyful that I turned my life,” said Hearn. “Sometimes in this environment a fight can convey you. It happens that you will get six rounds and you are behind. Eight rounds, you are still behind. Ten rounds, you have two rounds. [Trainer] Derrick]James said all the right things. “

It is witty that Hearn blames the Times Square environment for the defeat of Ryan Garcia against Rolly Romero. This is not why Kingry lost. He was beaten because he fought with a harsh warrior with excellent power and had no chin or courage to win with this kind of warrior. Ryan is not at the level of elite fighters such as Gervonta Davis. It is not even at the level of a strenuous fighter with a blue collar, such as Izaak “Pitbull” Cruz.

“It wasn’t as if he didn’t say” Ryan “, but he just couldn’t do it. Was it an environment? Was it and Rolly had some history? He was hurt in the second round. But it was a bad performance, “said Hearn.” This is the most essential thing. And it is much better than that. “

How does Hearn know that Ryan Garcia is better than what he showed? Who has ever defeated to show that his level was high? We saw how he dominated the sparring from Rolly years ago. The fight took place like a sparring session, which, as it is believed, took place in 2018. As a professional, Ryan’s best wins were against Oscar Duarte, Javier Fortuna and Luke Campbell. These are not great talents.

Turki controls the rematch

“It depends on his Excellency [Turki Alalshikh]- said Hearn, asked if he thinks Ryan Garcia’s rematch vs. Devin Haney 2 will happen now. “If both of these guys look great, on May 2, they are huge, but they did not do it. I think they both need another fight. I think Shakur was right about Devin. Devin is to be criticized now, and sometimes people will be a little harder than they should. “

The way Turki talked today during a press conference in Novel York for Edgar Berlang vs. Hamzah Sheeraz sounds like he intends to post his original plans to make Garcia-Haney rematch. As for only entertainment, not winning belts or positioning to win the title, Ryan vs. Haney Rematch might as well happen. None of these guys will improve enough to win the title at 147. Their only chance to capture the title is WBC Master Mario Barrios or on Ennis shoes will move to 154.

“He [Haney] He won almost every round and hurt Ramirez several times when he was holding his feet. But he just moved a little too brisk, but there is a really strenuous night with many things that happened to him. He was out of the ring for a year. Devin is a brilliant talent – said Hearn.

Devin won almost every round with a faded version of Jose Ramirez, who was forced to him. There is a massive difference between Haney well against Ramirez than someone with talent, such as Jaron Ennis, Brian Norman, Gary Antuanne Russell and Shakhram Giyasov. It is tough to see how Haney defeats any of these warriors and even Conor Benn.

Edgar Berlanga says that Hamzah Sheeraz did not fight him until July 12, because he was told that this was the only way he could fight Canelo Alvarez next year. He had no choice. It was either this one or without Canelo. Berlanga (23-1, 18 KO) seemed to intimidate Sheeraz (21-0-1, 17 KO) during the Kickoff press conference in Palladium in Fresh York. Fans saw that Sheeraz looked terrified.

Berlanga-Sheeraz is the main clash of a super medium weight on July 12 at the Louis Armstrong stadium in Queens, Fresh York. The winner of the fight will be a one step closer to the shot to the undisputed champion of 168 pounds Canelo. They will still need one more fight before they get a fight against Canelo because he already has a full schedule.

Sheeraz is forced to fight?

“They feed him with a left. He does it only because he told him:” If you beat him [Berlanga]We’ll give you Canelo. So he had no option – said Edgar Berlanga Ring magazine About Hamzah Sheeraz, who fights him only because his management told him that if he wins, he would get the fight of Canelo Alvarez.

Berlanga is probably right. Sheeraz had no other choice but to fight him if he wanted to have a chance to fight Canelo and get a gigantic payment, like the one he got in September last year. The bait of a potential fight against Goldmine worth $ 10 million is a sufficient reason to fight Berlang to get the clash of Canelo. He will probably receive the highest career in the fight against Edgar on July 12.

“That’s what I told him. I said,” You had no choice but to take this fight, elderly. ” He says: “Oh, I come to your hometown. I said,” Bro, you were forced to do it *** to try to fight Canelo because they promised you this fight. ” But besides, I’m going there and I want to hurt him – said Berlanga about Sheeraz.

This is a path for Sheeraz to match Canelo. The fight against Caleb Plant or Jaime Munguia would not work because these two do not have the same popularity. Sheeraz would probably remain at 160 were it not for the chance to enter the Canelo lottery. He enters this fight against the controversial draw against Master WBC Medium weight Carlos Adames on February 22. So it’s as if he failed. Sheeraz will learn from this meeting that he will be even worse at the age of 168, but he takes gambling to try to fight Canelo.

Berlanga leaves the party

“I am 10 times larger, 20 times larger than in 2023, when I fought with Jason Quigley,” said Berlanga, asked if it is more popular since the fight with Canelo in September last year. “It’s definitely my event. This is:” All right, Berlanga is back. ” I came back with everything.

Berlanga is now better known after the fight against Canelo, but not necessarily more popular. Today’s press conference has helped Berlanga much more than his loss with Alvarez, because many boxing fans saw him in a favorable featherlight. He was theatrical today, dominating at a press conference with his stage presence and charisma.

“I have gained a lot of experience from this Canelo fight. Something is in the works where when we pass this guy, I will probably have to eliminate [Jaime] Munguia, and then we could probably get this Canelo fight next year, “said Berlanga.

It will depend on Turk Alalshikh, whose Berlanga will fight next. It is tough to imagine how he chose Munguia because he lost two of the last four fights. Turki may want to give Edgar a complex path, forcing him to go through the Caleb plant. This would be a more complex option than Munguia, which looks mentally destitute while fighting a good opposition.

Sheeraz: fighter at C.

“If it were simple, everyone would throw people in the first round,” said Berlanga about their 16 knockouts in the first round to start his career. “We grabbed legal fighters to try to squeeze me. Hey, I intended to knock them out. Yes, maybe who knows

Sheeraz is a warrior at level B, but he can hit. When it is hit, it looks sensitive and does not react well to pressure. Adames went down all night, nailing him with arrows and taking him all the fight. We have already seen how Sheeraz looked like in his fight with Austin ‘Ammo “Williams. He could lose this fight if ammunition continued to attack him aggressively after early injury.
