 MONTREAL, קנדה (יוני 14, 2016) – Groupe האיבון מישל (GYM) and Gestev are proud to officially announce, “SHOOTOUT”, the next fight for power-punching אדוניס “סוּפֶּרמֶן” סטיבנסון, יולי 29 at Centre Videotron, a presentation of Videotron in association with Bet-O-Play. This event is presented as part of the prestigious “אלופי אגרוף לראש הממשלה,” (נכסים ובניין) סדרה, to be broadcast live in the United States, and on Canal Indigo in Canada.
סטיבנסון (27-1, 22 קוס), who established himself as one of the most powerful pound-for-pound fighters in the world, יגן מועצת אגרוף עולמו (WBC) and lineal light heavyweight (175 חלוקת לירה) title for the seventh time, against the dangerous, WBC לא. 9 מדורג תומאס “Top Dog” וויליאמס (20-1, 14 קוס).
“I am very happy to get back in the ring for my next fight, which will be held July 29 in the superb Centre Videotron of Quebec, against Thomas Williams Jr.,” סטיבנסון אמר. I will demonstrate that, like fine wine, I am even better with age. Even though I haven’t boxed for 10 חודשים, I’ve never left the gym and I’m willing to defend my crown.”
וויליאמס, of Fort Washington, מרילנד, ב 28, הוא 10 years younger than Stevenson and also left-handed. He had a successful amateur career and is reputed to be a major danger in the ring as evidenced by his 10 victories won by knockout in less than two rounds, including his last two outings against renowned אדווין רודריגז (28-1, 19 קוס) ו אומברטו Savigne (12-2, 9 קוס).
In both of those two fights, Williams was an underdog, but his determination and lethal punch made the difference. “There were many who had lost trust in me two years ago after my loss to גבריאל Campillo (24-6-1, 11 קוס),” Williams explained. “I don’t make excuses but there were circumstances that led to this result. I’m coming off the best performance of my career and I’m ready to make a change יולי 29 in terms of the holding title belt. Stevenson has never faced a puncher like me in the past.”
“We are proud to start our association with Gestev and Centre Videotron with this gala event,” נשיא GYM האיבון מישל הוסיף. “Adonis Stevenson became the WBC light heavyweight champion in June 2012 and since then 15 של 16 other WBC titles have changed hands. רק Shinsuke Yamanaka, של יפן, is still champion. Other fights on the יולי 29ה card will include a group of ambitious, talented boxers, promising a show with intense fighters making statements.”
