While Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano are the center of attention in the boxing world in New York, there is another huge match taking place on the other side of the United States.
At the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, WBC junior lightweight champion Oscar Valdez (30-0, 23 KOs) takes on WBO champion Shakur Stevenson (17-0, 9 KOs) in a highly anticipated unification bout that doubles as a compelling clash of styles. Stevenson has soared to a -750 favorite on DraftKings Sportsbook but this fight is not a mismatch on paper; a lot of money is being slapped down on Shakur.
