Two undefeated records. Two rising stars. And two men looking to ruin both. On Saturday, July 12, DAZN PPV brings us a double-header out of New York’s Louis Armstrong Stadium that’s far from polite. Edgar Berlanga vs Hamzah Sheeraz and Shakur Stevenson vs William Zepeda headline what’s being called Ring Magazine III — and the press conference already told us what kind of night it’s going to be.
The fights stream live on DAZN, with the main card starting at 8 PM ET / 5 PM PT / 1 AM UK (Sunday). Expect blood, bad intentions, and a lot of shouting.
Berlanga’s NYC power trip meets Sheeraz’s calm killer energy
Edgar Berlanga (23-1, 18 KOs) walked into Times Square with his chest out and jaw locked. He called Sheeraz “basic,” promised to “break every bone in his face,” and warned:
“You’re in NYC. The lion’s den. I’m knocking this motherf***er out.”
Berlanga still sees himself as Canelo’s heir — and claims Canelo’s team wants the rematch.
“I gave him 12 rounds. Now his people want it again.”
Hamzah Sheeraz (21-0-1, 17 KOs) didn’t flinch. He knows he’s not the crowd favorite, but he doesn’t care:
“I’m being underestimated. That’s fine. On July 12, the Sheeraz hype train is back.”
His prediction?
“I’ll jab, land a clean right hand, and knock him the f*** out.”
Sheeraz is moving up to 160. Berlanga is fighting in his backyard. Someone’s walking out humiliated.
Stevenson vs Zepeda might be the best lightweight fight of 2025
Shakur Stevenson (23-0, 11 KOs) is defending his WBC lightweight belt, but more importantly, he’s defending his reputation. He’s been called boring. Overly defensive. But this time, he says:
“I’m putting on the best performance of my career. I’m coming to whoop his ass.”
William Zepeda (33-0, 27 KOs) is coming with one job — pressure.
“I can’t leave this to the judges. I have to stop him. I’m not here for a points loss.”
Zepeda’s relentless volume punching vs Stevenson’s elite IQ and defense? It could be a firefight… or a masterclass. Either way, it’ll be tense.
