Turki: “We Have a Surprise for Shakur — a Ring That Will Shrink During the Fight”

Chairman of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority Turki Alalshikh teased an unusual wrinkle for the upcoming clash between WBC Lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson (23-0, 11 KO) and unbeaten Mexican puncher William Zepeda (33-0, 27 KO).

“We’ve got a surprise for Shakur Stevenson on Saturday — a ring that will shrink as the fight goes on. Shakur says he’s ready to give William Zepeda a beating, and I know the Mexican is prepared for the biggest test of his life,” Turki wrote.

The Stevenson–Zepeda bout takes place on 12 July in New York, USA. A detailed analytical preview with full statistics is available via the link.
