Stevenson and Gonzalez tp meet for vacant Featherweight title

Shakur Stevenson and Joet Gonzalez will meet for the vacant WBO Featherweight title on October 26th in Reno, Nevada, according to Dan Rafael of espn.com.

“Devil is in the details,” he said. “I need a contract from Top Rank and then Joet and [manager] Frank [Espinoza] have to sign off on it, but Carl (Moretti) and I are good,” said Eric Gomez of Gonzalez promoter, Golden Boy Promotions

“This is by far the toughest fight for each guy,” Moretti said. “We didn’t care where the fight ended up. We know how good Shakur Stevenson is and fully expect him to win his first of many world titles that night. He’s special.”
