WELCOME!!!
Welcome to Diario AS USA’s live coverage of the WBC world lightweight title bout between Shakur Stevenson and Artem Haruntunyan from the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.
This is a grudge match of sorts for Shakur Stevenson. Not so much with his opponent but with his own promoter. This is the final fight on his Top Rank deal and Stevenson feels that he has been let down by Bob Arum and his company.
“I got a chip on my shoulder. Now that I got a chip on my shoulder, he’s got to deal with somebody that is very motivated. I’m coming to put on a show.”
Coming off of a successful defense of his title against Frank Martin, Stevenson is clear that he is not happy with the fights being made on his behalf. “I’m levels above Frank Martin. I think Artem is a good fighter, but he’s dealing with a different beast.”
Haruntunyan lost an eliminator to Frank Martin but is still getting his shot at the champ.
On the eve of becoming a free agent, Stevenson is making a homecoming to Newark, and crowds are hoping that the 2016 Olympic silver medallist will finally live up to his promise.
Boxing is all about “hit and don’t get hit.” Despite winning titles in three divisions, many fans find Stevenson’s focus on the second half of that equation to be boring and will not forgive him for not converting skill into knockouts.
Word around the campfire is that he is already looking ahead of Haruntunyan to a potential clash with Gervonta Davis. "Boxing turned on me but, at the end of the day, I'm a one-man army so I ain't tripping," Stevenson said. "I'll go against the world and what is going to happen? They are not going to be able to stop me."
Elsewhere on the undercard, O’Shaquie Foster will defend his WBC junior lightweight title against Robson Conceicao. This is Foster’s third title defense and Conceicao is the Olympian who pipped Stevenson for gold in 2016.
