This weekend, the young gun Shakur Stevenson will lock horns with Jeremiah Nakathila for the WBO interim super-featherweight title. This will be the first time that Stevenson will fight for any title at the 130-pound weight class. Until now, he’s proven his mettle in a short span of time. But in order to escalate his boxing career from hereon, it’s important for the New Jersey native to take on such high-voltage title fights.

For now, Stevenson‘s record stands at 15-0. Prior to shifting his attention to the super-featherweight division, he fought at featherweight too.

On the flip side, his opponent, Nakathila, boasts of a 21-1 resume. He is equally hungry to strengthen his boxing resume and consequently fight for the 130-pound gold. But in order to do the same, Nakathila will have to vanquish Stevenson from his way.
