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. The shot sent  Caraballo  to his knees and his gloves on the canvas and while stuck there because of the pains, the referee Tony Weeks was forced to end the fight at exactly 1:31 of the sixth. 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 To Face Luiz Ortiz Before Joshua-Parker Winner

Deontay Wilder To Face Luiz Ortiz Before Joshua-Parker Winner
21/12/2017



Deontay Wilder manager has been in talks for a unification of titles in the Heavyweight division and somehow this hasn't been fruitful, as his main target, the IBF, IBO WBA Heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has seen him unrealistic in demands.

Whatever the outcome of his negotiations with the Champion, Luis Ortiz still stands on his way to making his unification dream come true.

Deontay Wilder (39-0, 38 KOs) was scheduled to face the Cuban back in November 4th but pulled out due to a pre-fight fail drug test and replace with Bermane Stiverne, who got knocked out a minute into the first round.

The WBC are out to make two big fights for Deontay Wilder and his Manager Jay Deas feels positive about the idea “I think the odds are pretty good (that this fight occurs),” said Jay Deas, Wilder's co-manager and trainer, to the Tuscaloosa News.

“He did test positive. That’s the second time he’s done that. They’ve really kind of given him a life line. The WBC has given him every chance to succeed. What happened is, he was hit with a really hefty fine and now he has to go under really stringent testing. He has to be clean all the way through. I think they have let him know, one more strike and you’re done. He knows it, and he would have to be an absolute idiot to test positive or take anything, even an aspirin or an multi-vitamin.”

He views the picture as an elimination where the four big fighters in the division face off then the winners square off for the final unification.

“Now it looks like what could be happening is...it could be the top four heavyweights in the world fighting each other and the two winners fighting for all the belts. That would be Joshua versus Joseph Parker and Deontay against Luis Ortiz, and then the two winners would meet. I think they’re trying to put Joshua and Parker at the end of March, so we’re trying our best to get in before that," Deas said.

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.
