Shakur Stevenson vs. William Zepeda: Promoter Eddie Hearn provides for a shutdown in Shakur’s round, highlighting his underestimated punch power

Promoter Eddie Hearn chooses WBC Light Champion Shakur Stevenson to choose William Zepeda and removed him in the later rounds of his fight on July 12 in Queens, New York.

Shakur’s fist power

Hearn says that fans do not realize that Shakur (23-0, 10 kos) is a punch that has only great technical skills. His last fight against Josh Padley showed his power when he detained him with a body shot last February.

What prevents Stevenson from becoming more punctured is his brittle hands. He has long been hand -trouble and only seems capable of throwing power in his body. This is a safe area for a fighter with fragile hands.

“Actually I think Shakur will stop Zepeda. I know that people have the perception that Shakur is not a punch. It’s technically fantastic, but I think Zepeda’s style will be agreed.” YouTube Channel, predicting a victory for Shakur Stevenson over William Zepeda.

Shakur’s victory picked up his latest fight against his late replacement opponent, Josh Padley, may have given Hearn a false impression. This was fashion fashion at stake. Hearn chose a part -time Boxeer from the United Kingdom as a compliance when the originally programmed opponent, Floyd Schofield, pulled out. In the posterior view, it was a lucky break for Shakur.

If Stevenson is in his pocket and tries to eliminate Zepeda, he will be put on the machine with combinations of the Mexican brawler. The only way Shakur can exist in his pocket against Zepeda is if he has been a lot of retention as Tevin Farmer did to survive.

“He will choose him. I think he will hurt him in the body and I think he will stop him late in the fight because Zepeda is a proud man. That’s why I love this struggle,” said Hearn.

Stevenson’s body strategy

Stevenson will not be able to stop in front of Zepeda and load -with body features as he did against the electrician Padley. This will not work. He will be hit too much and will be forced to get out of his pocket to escape the avalanche of punches that Zepeda will launch. Standing, I would ask for problems with Shakur.
