Shakur Stevenson’s Light Rank number 1 was questioned: Zepeda Win

Shakur Stevenson has turned Ring for Ring for Light Division (135 LB) after defeating William Zepeda on Saturday night in Queens, New York. The panel that classifies the combatants for the organization considered Shakur’s victory over the flat-footed Zepeda, which was hit, easy to hit (33-1, 27 kos) was enough to reach it first #1.

Zepeda: Not a caliber for number 1

Was a superficial victory For Shakur, whisking an unaunt fist bag, which was tired of the sixth round. Above all, Zepeda had been hit in his two previous fights by Tevin Farmer, but the judges were saved in both fights.

This choice does not make sense. Zepeda is not a good fighter to be used as a caliber to classify Shakur (24-0, 11 kos) to the top of the 135th heap. In addition, this victory, along with the wide scores turned by the Judges Crew, was not decisive enough for Shakur to be near the number 1.

The light rankings of the ring

1. Shakur Stevenson
2. Gervonta Davis
3. Raymond Muratalla
4. William Zepeda
5. Andy Cruz
6. Floyd Schofield
7. Denys berinchyk
8. Sam Noakes
9. Abdullah Mason
10. Lucas Baldi

The combination of the strange scores, the factory rival and the difficulties that Shakur had to achieve victory means that it deserves to be placed in a much lower place in the light rankings, a #8.

Andy Cruz: Apex of Light Division

If we classify ourselves by real talent and not a popularity contest based on superficial victories for a minor opposition, Andy Cruz It deserves to be Lightweight number 1 fighter. The “Diamond” Cruz has shown in his last three fights fighting the highest level of the £ 135 division. Therefore, other weights like Shakur are avoided. He has become part of the Lightweight’s untouchable class, along with Abdullah Mason and Floyd Schofield.
