Prediction: Shakur Stevenson on Points
Result: Shakur Stevenson by Points
I have no idea why this was the co-main and not the main event, but it was a fun fight nonetheless. Shakur faced maybe his hardest opponent yet with a stylistic matchup that gave him trouble early. He stood and traded like all of us fans wanted and put on a very good performance. He’s so accurate of a puncher and he won this fight clearly even though Zepeda did win his fair share of rounds. A fight that will win both guys a lot more fans. The cards were pretty horrible though. No credit to Zepeda at all.
