Shakur Stevenson Breaks Down Felix Caraballo, Stops Him In Six ↑ Grab this Headline Animator WBO featherweight champion Shakur Stevenson made a successful 130 pound debut against  Felix Caraballo , working him down to a sixth round stoppage victory in a non title fight at the MGM Grand Conference Center on Tuesday night. Stevenson toyed with his opponent, breaking him down with every shot before, eventually ending the fight with a big body shot in the sixth round.

With the win, the 2016 silver medallist Stevenson retained his unbeaten record and improved to (14-0, 8KOs). Stevenson was placed a 100-1 favourite, heading into the fight and he proved right the bookmarkers by winning all the five rounds (50-44, 50-44, 50-43) before the stoppage, dropping Caraballo (13-2-2, 9 KOs) twic

Deontay Wilder Will Brutally KO Tyson Fury In Rematch -Ortiz ↑ Grab this Headline Animato r The WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder has been ruthless knocking out every opponent he has faces except Tyson Fury , whom he mercilessly dropped twice in their first fight and plans to face in an anticipated rematch on Feb. 22nd. Luis Ortiz has been Wilder's most recent victim, having suffered the same fate in his rematch on Saturday. He had dominated the fight from the first round and was leading on all scorecards before being dropped by a merciless right hand in the seventh round, bringing the fight to a sudden end. The Cuban believes that the Unbeaten Champion will give Fury no respect and will definitely add Fury to his increasing list of knockout victories when they both meet in the ring on Feb. 22nd. “Me and Fury are two completely different fighters,” Ortiz said during a post-fight press conference Saturday night at MGM Grand. “I don’t believe that Wilder prob
