It was a firefight,” said Stevenson. “He put pressure on me so I decided to put pressure on him too. It was a fight with two guys who could punch and it was spectacular. It was my daughter’s birthday and I gave her a great gift.
The defending champion Stevenson, fighting in his adopted hometown, put Williams down in round one with a straight left hand. Williams was able to recover and began to fire back in round two. Tuttavia, Stevenson’s jab consistently sent Williams backtracking, while Williams abandoned the jab and attempted to cut the distance with power punches from difficult angles. Williams staggered the world champion several times, using an effective counter right hand while getting the best of many exchanges.
Both men were hurt in an exciting third round that saw momentum swing in each man’s favor before the bell rang to end the round. A cut opened up over the left eye of Williams in the end of the round that was tended to in his corner. Williams hit the canvas as a result of a low blow early in the fourth, but regained his footing shortly after.

I am happy with the win, but I would have liked a knockout! He was tough, but he did not hurt me at all and I thought that I hurt him. I am ready for my next challenge, which will hopefully be a world title fight.
The top-rated contender for Stevenson’s title, Alvarez established his jab early on while attacking the body of Berridge with right hooks. Alvarez continued to control the fight from a distance as Berridge was slow to begin increasing his output before he started putting the pressure on in round five.
The southpaw Berridge was able to land occasionally on Alvarez with a looping left hand, but never put the undefeated fighter in danger. Alvarez began to have more success varying up his attack with right uppercuts and hooks that eventually left Berridge’s right eye swollen and bruised.
Alvarez took home the decision by scores of 99-90 e 98-92 due volte.

The event is called ‘SHOOTOUTbecause of the aggressive style of Thomas Williams Jr, who fights like there is no domani, combined with the explosive power of Adonis Stevenson.
Williams is a clear and present danger but we are convinced that Adonis is well prepared and will succeed, so that we will all be happy Sabato morning while eating breakfast. We still have not seen his full potential yet.
The fight between Eleider Alvarez and Robert Berridge is really important for the rankings in the light heavyweight division. Alvarez is highly considered by all the independent rankings (The Ring, BoxRec) and Berridge was already in training before the withdrawal of Chad Dawson, because he was supposed to fight on HBO PPV last weekend before the bout was cancelled for administrative reasons. He is fearless and a hard hitter.

SHOOTOUT IN QUEBECAdonis Stevenson vs. Thomas Williams Jr. WBC Light Heavyweight Championship Live at Centre Videotron

MONTREAL, Canada (Giugno 14, 2016) – Groupe Yvon Michel (PALESTRA) and Gestev are proud to officially announce, “SHOOTOUT”, the next fight for power-punching Adone “Superuomo” Stevenson, Luglio 29 at Centre Videotron, a presentation of Videotron in association with Bet-O-Play. This event is presented as part of the prestigious “Premier Boxing Champions” (PBC) serie, to be broadcast live in the United States, and on Canal Indigo in Canada.
Stevenson (27-1, 22 KO), who established himself as one of the most powerful pound-for-pound fighters in the world, difenderà il suo World Boxing Council (WBC) and lineal light heavyweight (175 pound divisione) title for the seventh time, against the dangerous, WBC n. 9 nominale Thomas “Top Dog” Williams (20-1, 14 KO).
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 ha detto. I will demonstrate that, like fine wine, I am even better with age. Even though I haven’t boxed for 10 mesi, I’ve never left the gym and I’m willing to defend my crown.
Williams, of Fort Washington, Maryland, a 28, è 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 Edwin Rodriguez (28-1, 19 KO) e Umberto Savigne (12-2, 9 KO).
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 Gabriel Campillo (24-6-1, 11 KO),” 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 Luglio 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,” Presidente GYM Yvon Michel aggiunto. “Adonis Stevenson became the WBC light heavyweight champion in June 2012 and since then 15 di 16 other WBC titles have changed hands. Solo Shinsuke Yamanaka, of Japan, is still champion. Other fights on the Luglio 29th card will include a group of ambitious, talented boxers, promising a show with intense fighters making statements.
Nella co-feature, current WBC Silver light heavyweight champion and WBC No. 1 contendente, Eleider Alvarez (19-0, 10 KO), will attempt to maintain his position as the WBC mandatory challenger against Maximiliano Gomez (22-5, 9 KO), of Argentine.
Also scheduled to be in action are Nova Scotia native and adopted Montreal fighter Custio Clayton (8-0, 7 KO), who will attempt to continue his rise in the welterweight division, Quebec heavyweight Eric Martel Bahoeli (11-6, 7 KO) will realize his dream to fight in Videotron Centre, charismatic Montreal welterweight Junior Ulysse (10-0, 7 KO) e welter Marie Eve Dicaire (4-0) are also slated to be in action. Other fights and fighters will soon be announced for the July 29th carta.
