00:00
This is the moment the world has been waiting for.
00:04
The judges are ready, the fighters are ready, the boxing world is ready.
00:09
The fight starts now.
00:13
How do you like it?
00:17
So aggressive, so focused.
00:20
It all comes down to this.
00:23
Come on and act it.
00:25
And still, we have the student champion of the world.
00:29
Welcome to the Weekend Preview, brought to you by the new motion picture The Naked Gun.
00:42
The Naked Gun, surely you can't be serious.
00:44
I am serious, and don't call me Shirley.
00:47
All right, let's talk about the doubleheader coming your way.
00:51
Ring three from the Louis Armstrong Stadium.
00:53
The first time there's ever been a fight inside that tennis arena.
00:57
The main event, two of them.
00:59
We'll start with Zepeda versus Shakur Stevenson.
01:03
He's had hand issues.
01:05
He's gotten a lot of criticism from running from opponents.
01:07
He seems to have really taken that to heart, and he promises to put on a brilliant display
01:12
against the Mexican.
01:13
Do you believe him?
01:14
I believe him.
01:15
I think Shakur Stevenson has been waiting for an opportunity like this for several years now.
01:21
He is a former Olympic silver medalist.
01:23
He's a three-division world champion, but he's yet to have that one dance partner that
01:28
can bring out the greatness that may be inside of him.
01:31
I think William Zepeda is that guy.
01:33
The best offensive fighter in all of boxing is William Zepeda.
01:36
The best defensive fighter in all of boxing is Shakur Stevenson.
01:40
It is the unstoppable force against the immovable object.
01:44
I think this is going to be a fantastic fight.
01:46
I feel physics, but I know that this man throws a thousand punches around, and it's hard to
01:49
stop that.
01:50
A fight.
01:51
I'm sorry, a hundred punches around a thousand in a fight, and whenever you have that much
01:54
volume, whenever you have that much aggression, even if you're not a power puncher, that natural
01:59
aggression is going to turn you into a power puncher if you're Shakur Stevenson.
02:02
Even if you have brittle hands, when you have someone so aggressive, an immovable object,
02:07
even half a shot does damage, so this is the type of fight, and everyone thinks I'm crazy,
02:11
where Stevenson can actually get a stoppage, because when you have someone that, you know,
02:15
volume puncher coming at you, throwing aggression, caution to the wind, that's going to be the
02:19
only way William Zepeda is able to win this fight, so his head's going to be in your chest,
02:24
and we're dealing with one of the sharpest, most accurate punchers in Stevenson.
02:28
And you mentioned physics.
02:29
When someone throws that many punches, your hands are out here.
02:31
They're not defending your face, and there will be openings for Shakur.
02:34
Sure. I don't think it's crazy at all, Sergio, to think that a knockout could be in the offing.
02:38
Like, the criticism of Shakur Stevenson, I get some of it. Like, he's had some stinkers
02:43
in recent fights. The Edwin Del Santos fight was a stinker. He's had some bad fights,
02:49
but he's also had some really good fights. I mean, nobody can watch the fight against
02:52
Jamel Herring and say that wasn't a good fight. No one can watch the win over Oscar Valdez and say
02:58
that wasn't a good fight. But William Zepeda, one of the weaknesses I think he has is that he comes
03:02
straight ahead. He is a straight line guy. He's not a cut the ring off guy. He is coming at you
03:06
full speed straight ahead. Shakur Stevenson is smart enough and skilled enough that I think he's going
03:11
to find ways to take advantage of that and maybe even score that knockout. If Shakur starts touching
03:15
the body early, because that's going to be the key, especially early in this fight, to try to take
03:19
a little bit of the steam of Zepeda. If Shakur can start aiming at the body, even if they're jabs
03:24
with straight left hands, you know this kid's going to have a game plan, and I'm really going to like
03:27
the stoppage late. All right, so that's the preview for the first of the two double header main events.
03:32
The second one will be Hamza Shiraz facing off against Edgar Berlanga, but there's been a lot
03:37
of talk, a lot of bad blood between these two as Wade Plemons found out firsthand. Hansi says you're a
03:42
runner, so you like to run around the ring a lot. What's your response there? I don't think I'm known
03:47
for running around the ring. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had however many knockouts I've had.
03:55
He got Andy Lee. He got Andy Lee in his corner. I already know the game plan. I already know the
04:01
game plan. I already know the game plan. What do you think it is? How much do you want to bet I'll
04:06
stand in that ring with you? We're going to see, bro. I'll bet you I'll stand in that ring with you.
04:09
Let me see. Listen, I'm coming to your backyard. I pray, I pray you do. I'm coming to your backyard.
04:15
I can't box. I pray you do. I can't box. I got my, you got Turkey, Turkey. That's your poppy.
04:21
You got Turkey, Turkey got you like this, brother. You hurt. You an ambassador. I got to,
04:25
I got to go in there and prove something. There's not, you think. No, no, I'm coming to you.
04:29
I'm coming to your backyard. No, yeah. This is my . That's why I told Turkey. I told Turkey,
04:33
this is my . When I said Turkey at the fights, he said, oh, so you the king? I said, yes, this is my
04:38
Turkey, but you the king too, because you own all these hotels here. It's my bro. I was born,
04:43
I was raised here, bro. I'm a big New Yorker, bro. So you got a lot of friends here, yeah?
04:48
But, but, but listen, you, you, Turkey's baby. That's what you think? I know. So if that's
04:55
the case, why am I coming to your backyard? I know. I know. Because you don't have no choice.
04:59
Why is Turkey set up the fight in your backyard? Because you don't have no choice,
05:01
because your poppy said, yo, listen, we got to fight for, you got to fight for longer,
05:04
but you got to fight for longer in New York. If I was that, you'd come to London.
05:07
What are you going to tell probably? If I was that, you'd have come to London.
05:09
Huh? I go to your backyard. If he would have said you got to fight Shiraz in London,
05:12
I would have went over there. But we said we'd fight you anywhere.
05:15
We're here. I signed the contract. We're fighting you in your backyard.
05:17
You, you had to take the fight. Don't not show confidence.
05:19
Don't not show confidence. Don't not show that I'm coming to take it away from you.
05:22
He told you. He told you. Don't not show that I'm going to take it away from you.
05:25
Come on. Yo, Hamza, man. Come on.
05:26
You know I'm going to take it away from you. Tell the truth.
05:28
No, you're not. I'm coming for you.
05:30
I promise you on Jesus Christ, on my son, you're not taking nothing from me.
05:33
I'm coming for you. I promise you. And I'm going to take it.
05:34
That's right. All right. We're going to see.
05:36
I'm going to take it. We're going to see.
05:37
Otherwise, I won't be here. We're going to see.
05:39
I don't do half eyes. I won't be here.
05:40
We're going to see. We're going to see. We're going to see.
05:43
Trust me. We're going to see. Trust me. We're going to see.
05:44
Trust me. We're going to see.
05:46
We're not going to see. You're going to see.
05:47
All right. It's your will against my will.
05:48
You're going to see.
05:49
It's your will against my will. It's my will against your will.
05:51
It's as simple as that.
05:52
Who's going to break first?
05:54
You know, it's going to come down to who wants it more.
05:55
Yeah, that's not me and you in that minute ring exchanging.
05:58
Yeah, that's not...
05:58
I'm not taking you lightly.
06:01
I know you're coming.
06:06
I think it's safe to say Edgar Berlanga has taken this to another level as far as promotion goes.
06:11
He's putting his entire reputation into this fight.
06:14
I'm different than you.
06:14
I'm coming from a different cloth.
06:16
You'll never be in the ring with anybody like me.
06:18
I will knock you out.
06:20
He said those things before, but never with so much veracity.
06:24
Does he have to do that?
06:25
Is that the right word?
06:26
No.
06:27
What's the word I'm looking for?
06:28
Ferocity?
06:28
Yes, I think you were trying to say veracity at times.
06:31
I don't know.
06:31
You went back and forth on that one.
06:32
Whatever. I don't mean fast.
06:32
I mean a lot of viciousness.
06:34
I think he's got to look brilliant in this fight.
06:36
I don't think that Edgar Berlanga necessarily needs to win this fight by knockout.
06:39
I think Hamza Shearra is going to be a difficult guy to knockout because he's big, he's long, he's skilled, and he has an excellent jab.
06:46
It's not going to be an easy fight.
06:48
But Edgar Berlanga needs a win as much as any high-level boxer in the sport needs a win.
06:54
Because right now, Edgar Berlanga has been riding a 12-round decision loss to Canelo Alvarez.
07:00
Before that, his best wins were against guys like Padraic McCrory and Jason Quigley.
07:05
This guy needs a significant win.
07:07
Hamza Shearra is right there.
07:08
Still undefeated.
07:09
Was one of the top guys at 160.
07:12
Didn't look great in his last fight, but still a very marketable opponent for Edgar Berlanga.
07:17
He needs to come up with a win on Saturday night.
07:19
You need the big win, especially here in his hometown, in New York.
07:22
You know, it could always go against him.
07:24
But I love the fact that Berlanga did all that trash talking, that he was promoting the fight.
07:27
You may not like it, but me and Todd were looking at each other and smiling.
07:31
Yes, it's childish at times.
07:32
But whenever you're talking to a golden boy and Oscar del Hoyo like that, you're talking to one of the biggest promoters in boxing.
07:38
So you're going to get attention.
07:39
You're going to get, you know, clicks on Twitter and social media.
07:41
Yeah, but about what?
07:43
And that's how you become, you know, a little bit more popular.
07:45
No, it's not.
07:46
No, it's not.
07:47
Going at a guy that you're not even fighting who has been retired for a decade, that's not.
07:52
To me, I wanted to see more between Hamza Shiraz and Edgar Berlanga.
07:55
I wanted to see more between them.
07:57
I think Edgar's done a pretty good job of getting under the skin of Hamza Shiraz over the last few weeks.
08:01
Like teasing him with the Canelo thing.
08:03
You're Turkey's boy.
08:04
You're the guy.
08:04
You're the golden child.
08:06
I think he's done a nice job getting under Shiraz's skin.
08:08
I want to see more from Edgar and Hamza and less from Edgar and Oscar.
08:12
All right.
08:12
So we've given you all the news you need to know.
08:14
I want to hear some predictions, guys.
08:16
Let's start with the Zepeda fight versus Shakur.
08:18
Who you got?
08:19
I got Stevenson with a late-round stoppage in that one.
08:21
I know it sounds crazy, but I think this kid could really pick him apart.
08:25
I'm taking Shakur Stevenson by decision.
08:27
I think the biggest factor in this is do the hands of Shakur Stevenson hold up.
08:31
He has been battling hand issues for the better part of the last seven years.
08:35
He had a fight canceled because he had surgery.
08:38
In his last two fights, he dealt with significant hand issues,
08:41
and he's coming back after a relatively short turnaround time.
08:44
Just fought this past February against Josh Padley.
08:47
Can they hold up over 12 rounds against one of the best offensive fighters of the sport?
08:52
All right.
08:52
And then finally, Edgar Berlanga, Hamza Shiraz.
08:55
Keith Connelly, who doesn't speak much.
08:56
He's the manager for Edgar Berlanga.
08:57
He's promising a Berlanga knockout.
08:59
If you believe him.
09:00
No.
09:01
I think if there's an upset of the night, it's going to be Shiraz.
09:03
If he can last all the way to the distance,
09:05
I could see him putting early rounds in the bank and even pulling off a decision.
09:09
But that chin is going to be questionable.
09:10
How is he going to take that power?
09:11
If he takes that power, Berlanga's in trouble.
09:14
It's a tough one.
09:15
To me, that's a coin flip type of fight.
09:18
And look, again, like I talked about Shakur and what version of him do we get.
09:21
What version of Hamza Shiraz do we get?
09:23
Do we get the guy that mowed down Ammo Williams in his biggest winner, 160?
09:27
Or do we get the guy that was really tentative against Carlos Adamas in his last fight?
09:33
I think it's more the latter than the former.
09:35
I think Edgar Berlanga catches him, and I think he stops him midway through the fight.
09:38
And you can see those fights live globally only on DAZN.
09:42
We hope you enjoy the fights.
09:44
And this weekend preview is brought to you by the major motion picture, The Naked Gun.
09:49
On August 1st, a new contender arrives.
