Edwin De Los Santos Fights Tonight After Two-Yr Layoff

De Los Santos was imagined to have returned to the ring against former WBO lightweight champion Keyshawn Davis last 12 months in Norfolk. The fight was canceled when Keyshawn got here in chubby on the weigh-in the day before the fight.

The punching power of De Los Santos makes him a threat to anyone within the 135-lb division. He knocked out former light welterweight champion Jose ‘Rayo’ Valenzuela in 2022. In Edwin’s fight with Shakur, he had him looking timid, moving nonstop in limitless circles across the ring.

The Night Shakur Didn’t Need to Engage

The gang on the T-Mobile Arena that night was booing their heads off, furious on the running Stevenson was doing. It wasn’t De Los Santos’ fault. He was literally chasing him across the ring. There was nothing he could do because Shakur didn’t want to have interaction.

After the fight, Stevenson blamed his performance on essentially fighting with “one hand” due to a left-hand injury. His then-promoter, Bob Arum, said he’d doubt it with a left shoulder injury as well.

De Los Santos wasn’t given credit for putting the scare in Shakur when he nailed him hard early in the primary round with a left to the top. That was when the fight became a Tom-and-Jerry contest.

Tonight’s event shall be shown at Coliseo de Boxeo in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. De Los Santos-Cruz’s card shall be streamed live to tell the tale the La Casaca Boxing Club YouTube channel below. The 26-year-old De Los Santos (16-2, 14 KOs) and Cruz (12-7-1, 7 KOs) will meet in an eight-round fight.
