Comments Thread For: Why now is the right time for Shakur Stevenson to fight William Zepeda

[BoxingUpdates]

In Monday's episode of ProBox TV's "Deep Waters," analyst Chris Algieri said the current situations of each fighter leaves them looking for a dance partner, peering squarely at the other. Three-division and WBC lightweight champion Stevenson (22-0) just disposed of challenger Artem Harutyunyan in New Jersey to complete his contract with promoter Top Rank, which signed him out of the 2016 Olympics.

William Zepeda will bring the heat and that's what Stevenson needs to bring that dog out. Great fight for both and boxing

I think he's had enough exposure now? Shakur's a free agent, no co-promotion needed! MAN UP!!!

yea watch the loses start to show up now that SuSure is not behind Arum and he will have less of a chance to stay out of the way of certain fighters.......And at 27 it is always time to take risks and face challenges.........................

Top Rank officials told BoxingScene that possibility is “doubtful” and said they have other plans for Berinchyk?

Bob Arum’s old ass should have no say about it. To hell with Keyshawn Davis. Zepeda is the WBO mando and the WBO should order that fight…unless they are just a corrupt pawn of Arum and have no shame about making that obvious to the world.

[JonDP]

Stevenson is a stingy, scaredy, shítty fighter with close to zero entertainment value. It takes someone like Zepeda to make it into a real fight, a fight I’m not sure Stevenson can overcome with his stingy, shítty style.

[DeaconFrost]

Lets make this happen! The only mega fight at this weight class besides Tank vs Stevenson

[V.WEBB]

Will Oscar put him in there?

[A.B Counterhooks]

Camaron beats both shakur and davis...he's that good.
