Fight Preview

A massive five days in Las Vegas kicks off with some high-quality boxing action at the T-Mobile Arena on Thursday, November 16. The boxing action takes place just two days before the start of the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Shakur Stevenson has been one of the top stars in American boxing throughout recent history, and he will be putting his perfect professional record on the line against Edwin De Los Santos.

Stevenson made the decision to move into the lightweight division after scoring a unanimous decision success against Robson Conceicao. He made a dominant start to life in the division earlier this season, as he scored a stunning sixth-round TKO victory over Shuichiro Yoshino in April.

Stevenson will make his first challenge for a lightweight title in Vegas, as the WBC gold will be on the line against De Los Santos. The American was originally set to square off against Frank Martin, but the contender rejected the contract approach put forward.

The Dominican Republic fighter has enjoyed a solid record throughout his professional career, having won 16 of his 17 professional bouts. Over that period, he has scored 14 knockouts. His most impressive display came in September 2022, as he climbed up off the canvas to score a third-round victory against Jose Valenzuela.


Shakur Stevenson vs Edwin De Los Santos Prediction

This will be an exciting event to kick off the F1 week in Las Vegas. It should be a thrilling night seeing Stevenson back in action, and it appears very challenging to overlook the American scoring a TKO win to land the WBC lightweight title.
