Shakur Stevenson is ready to defend his WBC lightweight world title against Joe Cordina on October 12th in Saudi Arabia. This exciting match will be part of a huge night of boxing, headlined by the Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol fight. Stevenson, who has a perfect record of 22 wins, will return to the ring just a few months after his last victory in July. He’s determined to keep his title against Cordina, who is looking to make a comeback after losing his IBF super featherweight belt earlier this year.
The night will be packed with action, featuring several other thrilling matchups. Chris Eubank Jr will face Kamil Szeremeta, while Fabio Wardley takes on Frazer Clarke in a highly anticipated rematch. Fans will also see Jai Opetaia against Jack Massey, Ben Whittaker vs Liam Cameron, and a women’s bout between Skye Nicolson and Raven Chapman. The undercard will wrap up with a fight between local star Mohammed Alakel and Jesus Gonzalez. This event promises to be one of the biggest boxing nights of the year, with Stevenson and Cordina’s showdown taking center stage.
