WBC light champion promoter Shakur Stevenson, Eddie Hearn, says he has been in negotiations with Golden Boy’s promotions to establish a struggle with temporary champion William Zepeda in the summer. Hearn is optimistic that it can reach an agreement, saying, “Everyone wants the struggle.”

Looking “Tank”

Hearn says the plan is that Stevenson gets Zepeda’s shock, “then dealing with the tank.” This is the struggle that Hearn has been watching since Shakur signed his Matchroom company in August 2024.

Eddie has not said his plans for Stevenson if he fails to get the tank’s struggle. Hearn will probably try to attract Ryan Garcia or Devin Haney to fight him, which will be almost impossible.
