Considering the fight is less than 3 weeks away… solid replacement.

Hank Lundy Jr?

Granny ****ing M Fr. This isn't fair.

NSAC nixed the Campa fight 3 weeks ago, why did it take Top Rank so long to get a replacement?

[PBR Streetgang]

So Connecticut commission didn't have an issue with Campa fighting Broner (although Broner's team wanted a softer touch) but Vegas takes issue with Zepeda fighting him...

Lundy isn't a bad late replacement, he will come to fight and he will most likely lose. Zepeda seems to fight most violent when he is forced to (as Ramirez and Baranchyk did).

"Zepeda survived four knockdowns to beat Baranchyk by fifth-round knockout in a brutal battle October 9 at MGM Grand Conference Center in Las Vegas. The resilient Zepeda also dropped Russia’s Baranchyk (20-2, 13 KOs) four times during their unforgettable fight. His left hand emphatically ended their scheduled 10-round, 140-pound fight in the fifth round. BoxingScene.com and numerous other outlets recognized Zepeda-Baranchyk as “Fight of the Year” for 2020."

Then why not run it back? Is Baranchyk healthy?

Something about Zepeda's face reminds me of Redkach, but the irony is their fighting hearts are a diametric opposite.

[VashDBasher]

Not a bad opponent for being a late replacement. I have Zepeda winning by UD.
