“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.,” Stevenson - ասել. I will demonstrate that, like fine wine, I am even better with age. Even though I haven’t boxed for 10 տարի, I’ve never left the gym and I’m willing to defend my crown.”
Williams, of Fort Washington, Մերիլենդ, ի 28, է 10 years younger than Stevenson and also left-handed.

I’m coming off the best performance of my career and I’m ready to make a change Հուլիս 29 in terms of the holding title belt. Stevenson has never faced a puncher like me in the past.”
