<h2>Tim Bradley breaks down Valdez vs Stevenson and says upset could happen</h2>

The retired Desert Storm took the time to analyze what can happen in this clash of undefeated fighters at 130 pounds, where he opts not to pay attention to the odds.
“Valdez has 10 championship fights, Stevenson has four. He has experience over Shakur and you can’t buy experience. If Shakur comes in too safe and I don’t think he does, but if he does because he wants to give a spectacular performance. That’s in his mind, ‘I want to become a star.’ He can get caught.“, said Bradley to Fight Hub TV.

“Oscar can set him up while allowing him to hit him. ‘Hit me’and then he can connect from anywhere. That left hook is very good, accurate, on point and does damage. We don’t know how Shakur is going to react. We know how Oscar will. This guy fought with a broken jaw for 10 rounds, but we don’t know how Shakur will react.“, said the former Super lightweight and Welterweight titlist.

This makes him an authoritative voice and a great mentor for those who can learn from him, such as Oscar Valdez, his stablemate, who will clash with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/canelo-Alvarez-on-target-shakur-stevenson-said-what-would-happen-if-he-fights-him-20220315-0031.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shakur Stevenson</a> on April 30, in one of the most anticipated fights of 2022.
The MGM Grand Garden Arena will not miss the thousands of high-quality fights it has hosted when Valdez and Stevenson trade blows in its ring. These are <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-all-current-world-champions-in-the-17-divisions-of-the-4-top-organizations-20211215-0041.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">two undefeated World Champions</a>, at a great age to display their best boxing and, moreover, with a latent animosity that will make their fight even more heated.
Shakur Stevenson (17-0-0, 9 KOs) will put his WBO World Super featherweight title, which he won in 2021 against Jamel Herring, on the table. The Newark native is a two-division World Champion.

He took his current belt, WBC World Super featherweight, from Miguel Berchelt with a chilling knockout in 2021.
<h2>How to beat Shakur Stevenson? Canelo Alvarez’s lesson to Oscar Valdez</h2>
It is well known that the working group formed by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/canelo-alvarez-worst-moment-of-his-career-so-far-it-is-not-his-defeat-against-floyd-mayweather-jr-20220420-0047.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canelo Alvarez and Eddy Reynoso</a> prioritize the good atmosphere and camaraderie. The Mexican superstar made this clear by revealing what advice he gave Oscar Valdez so he can come out on top in his tough fight against Shakur Stevenson on April 30 in Las Vegas.
“It’s gonna be a difficult fight for both fighters… So, I say, ‘Oscar, this fight is gonna be different. You need to keep focus and win the fight, not to put on a show for the people. Because (Shakur)a really good, skilled fighter, moves around. So, if you go forward, he’s gonna do his fight. You’re gonna (fight) his fight“, revealed Alvarez during one of the media day he usually has prior to his fights.
Almost all oddsmakers have <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-bob-arum-predicts-oscar-valdez-vs-shakur-stevenson-can-resemble-this-thrilling-boxing-trilogy-20220309-0032.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oscar Valdez below Shakur Stevenson</a>, who is five years younger and has 13 fewer fights. However, Canelo Alvarez will be betting on an upset:“I’m surprised about that because Oscar can do many things in the ring. He always try to, ‘Oh, I’m gonna put on a show for the people and go forward and try to [go] in and out and take punches and throw punches…But Oscar have a lot of experience, have a really good training camp, so it’s gonna be a really good fight.“

The first trimester of 2022 was a very nice tune-up for the second one as it comes with great action and drama for<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/canelo-alvarez-vs-gennady-golovkin-the-sales-that-would-make-the-t-mobile-arena-to-hold-the-trilogy-20220617-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing</a> fans around the world. The expectations ofSweet Sciencelovers were clearly surpassed with exciting clashes that include many of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/tyson-fury-asks-higher-pay-than-floyd-mayweather-canelo-alvarez-mike-tyson-to-come-out-of-retirement-20220615-0037.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">main names of boxing</a>. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-all-current-world-champions-in-the-17-divisions-of-the-4-top-organizations-20211215-0041.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Like Russian Artur Beterbiev.</a>
As a recapitulation, the year started with fantastic clashes, such as Julio Cesar Martinez vs RomanChocolatitoGonzalez, Josh Taylor vs Jack Catterall, Keith Thurman vs Mario Barrios, Claressa Shields vs Ema Kozin, and Amir Khan vs Kell Brook.
However, with due respect,the second trimester of 2022, April, May, and June, has the potential to become one of the best of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-eddie-hearn-brutal-reason-to-want-to-represent-gervonta-davis-rather-than-ryan-garcia-20220614-0039.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing</a> in years, given that the scheduled fights include not only top boxers but also world titles. Fasten your belts, the best is yet to come.
<h2>Which boxers are starring in the main events of the upcoming boxing fights?</h2>
It could be almost impossible to have a better lineup in a boxing schedule. Amazing prospects, fierce contenders, consolidated champions, and many of the best Pound for Pound fighters: all of them will step in the ring from April to June 2022.
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/canelo-alvarez-crushed-by-world-boxing-legend-i-thought-he-was-smarter-20220610-0029.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canelo Alvarez</a> is ahead of one of the biggest challenges of his career as he is invading a heavier category than the one that haves him as the king. Tyson Fury is facing a hungry contender that is focused on troubling him inside the ring and not outside of it.
Female boxing is witnessing the likely biggest event of its history featured by Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano. A Lightweight prospect, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/ryan-garcia-out-of-the-shot-for-a-world-title-devin-haney-reveals-lapidary-reason-not-to-face-him-20220609-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ryan Garcia</a>, comes back to action after a long pause with the intention to become a serious contender in one of the current most competitive weight classes. Also, the Super featherweight division is on the verge of the tremendous collision of two of its top men: Oscar Valdez and Shakur Stevenson.

Jesse Rodriguez vs Srisaket Sor Rungvisai and the rest of the upcoming boxing fights - Bolavip US

One of the most important attributes of boxers is self-confidence. A skilled fighter that does not trust himself is as bad as a lousy one. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-shakur-stevenson-heats-his-possible-super-featherweight-unification-fight-against-oscar-valdez-20220120-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shakur Stevenson</a> considers himself the perfect warrior as he has both of these attributes. He even has confessed what would happen if he and current Pound for Pound <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-how-does-it-feel-to-get-knocked-out-irish-boxer-michael-conlan-dramatic-experience-20220315-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing</a> king <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-canelo-alvarez-unbeatable-abel-sanchez-points-out-3-fighters-that-could-defeat-him-20220310-0023.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canelo Alvarez</a> would meet in a ring.
Although, on April 30,the Fearless(17-0-0, 11 KOs) has a huge challengeto overcome to start thinking on bigger leagues: <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-oscar-valdez-emotional-confession-ahead-of-his-upcoming-fight-against-shakur-stevenson-20220312-0022.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oscar Valdez</a> in a unification fight. The top fighters of the 135 weight class will defend <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-all-current-world-champions-in-the-17-divisions-of-the-4-top-organizations-20211215-0041.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">their respective titles (WBC and WBO)</a> in one of the most anticipated clashes of 2022.
Between Valdez (30-0-0, 23 KOs) and Stevenson, bad blood can be felt. They do not like each other, and, fortunately for boxing fans, they are also young, skilled, and successful, which can turn their fight into a real war. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-bob-arum-predicts-oscar-valdez-vs-shakur-stevenson-can-resemble-this-thrilling-boxing-trilogy-20220309-0032.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bob Arum has compared the fight with the classic trilogy Erik Morales and Marco Barrera </a>starred at the peak of their careers.
<h2>Shakur Stevenson vs Canelo Alvarez: who would win this fight?</h2>
Oscar Valdez is one of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-kamaru-usman-could-beat-canelo-alvarez-the-ufc-champion-manager-says-how-20220312-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canelo Alvarez’s</a> stable mates. They train together usually as social media has proven along these years. It is obvious that Valdez takes advantage of being close tothe Pound for Pound king and asks him for advice to succeed. However, this does not worry Shakur Stevenson as he might not considerAlvarez as the fighter everybody says he is.
“It’s cool that he (Oscar Valdez) hasgot Canelo there, but Canelo can get in the ring to fight for him, and even if he could I feel like, if me and Canelo were at the same weight, I feel like I would beat him” shared a very confident Shakur Stevenson for Fight Hub TV.
There is a very specific reason that makes Shakur thinks that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-the-ukrainian-boxer-who-opposes-the-fight-between-canelo-alvarez-and-dmitry-bivol-20220309-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canelo Alvarez</a> will not be a problem in the ring for him: “I am a great boxer. I saw what Floyd did to him. I feel like Floyd picked him apart, and I feel like me personally I would do the same“.

Boxing: Canelo Alvarez on target? Shakur Stevenson said what would happen if he fights him - Bolavip US

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-bob-arum-predicts-oscar-valdez-vs-shakur-stevenson-can-resemble-this-thrilling-boxing-trilogy-20220309-0032.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oscar Valdez vs Shakur Stevenson</a> is a true dream come true for<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/rocky-the-real-boxers-that-acted-in-the-boxing-saga-of-films-20220311-0040.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> boxing fans</a>. There are many reasons why this fight was expected and it will finally take place on April 30 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Being part of one of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/the-top-25-greatest-boxing-matches-of-all-time-20210416-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the biggest showdowns</a> of 2022 might have excited the Mexican warrior, who has made an emotional confession about the big problem he faced in his last fight.
One of the main reasons that turn Valdez vs Stevenson into a must-watch fight is the style of both fighters. Even though Oscar has been training his defense with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-canelo-alvarez-unbeatable-abel-sanchez-points-out-3-fighters-that-could-defeat-him-20220310-0023.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canelo Alvarez’s</a> coach, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-oscar-de-la-hoya-justifies-ryan-garcia-decision-to-split-from-eddy-reynoso-and-canelo-team-20220226-0029.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Eddy Reynoso</a>, he only is him when he assaults his rivals. On the other side, Shakur does not walk away from any trouble cause he trusts in his boxing IQ to solve anything.
Both fighters are <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-all-current-world-champions-in-the-17-divisions-of-the-4-top-organizations-20211215-0041.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">current World Super featherweight Champions</a> at a very proper age to show their best physical and boxing skills. Also, they are undefeated (30-0-0 vs 17-0-0) and two-division World Champions, and maybe, the most important of all reasons to expect this bout,they do not like each other.
<h2>Oscar Valdez opens his heart ahead of his upcoming fight against Shakur Stevenson</h2>
Valdez was in the eye of the storm on his last fight. He defeated Brazilian contender Robson Conceicao with a very controversial UD on September 2021. Four weeks beforethis clash, he was involved in<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/Winter-Olympics-2022-Is-Russia-competing-in-Beijing-20220205-0026.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> a doping scandal</a> after testing positive for Phentermine, a banned substance for the VADA, in both his A and B samples.
When it was expected that Oscar Valdez was sanctioned and dropped off of what was going to be the first defense of his WBC 130 pounds World title, his license application was approved thanks tolegal loopholes that allowed him to fight.
Despite the Mexican fighter continues claiming his innocence his pride and reputation were tarnished after this dark episode of his boxing career:”I was affected [by] the comments of people calling me a cheater, who said that I’m using something that’s prohibited. That’s not the case. I’ve always worked hard. I’ve always been a clean fighter. And the fact that they were pointing me out, without saying the facts, without saying what this substance was, that it was a clear mistake. And it never should’ve come up positive because different rules for organizations call it different.”, stated in an interview for Boxing Scene.
“And the fact that I was called a cheater broke my heart, broke me down. I was a kid once who looked up to all these great fighters. And when I would hear stories about fighters using banned substances, PEDs, it would change my mind completely about fighters. So, the fact that was happening to me, that they were saying I was cheating in the sport of boxing, which I would never do, it brought me down. I really lost focus because I worked so hard my whole career, and to be criticized for that one thing, which shouldn’t be considered a banned substance, it just brought me down.”, added Oscar Valdez.

<h2>The reason why Oscar Valdez claims his innocence</h2>
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-shakur-stevenson-heats-his-possible-super-featherweight-unification-fight-against-oscar-valdez-20220120-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shakur Stevenson</a> loves to make fun of everybody on social media. He has in mind that Valdez had the above-mentioneddoping trouble, and has used it to attack him: “He got caught cheating, so he’s just gotta deal with everything that come with it. VADA’s about to make sure that they test him a lot more. We’re just trying to make sure he don’t cheat or nothing like that.”, sharedthe FearlesstoBoxing Scene.

Nevertheless, Oscar Valdez continues pointing out every time he can that he is a clean fighter. Here is his argument according to the aforementioned media: “If people were to look at the details or educate themselves to what this really was, they would realize, ‘Oh, it’s not a banned substance,’ … It’s not something that’s actually helping me in any way. It’s not a performance-enhancing drug is what I’m trying to say. It’s more of a diuretic. The only difference was this banned substance was if this banned substance would’ve come up 24 hours before the weigh-in, it would’ve been positive for the WADA. But through the VADA, if you’re on vacation or training camp, it doesn’t matter when, it’s prohibited. So, the only thing it would help with was losing weight, which didn’t make sense for me using that because it was three weeks away from the weigh-in.”

On the one hand, the 31-year-old Mexican (30-0-0, 23 KOs) is a two-division World Champion, having already won the WBO featherweight title.
On the other hand, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-shakur-stevenson-heats-his-possible-super-featherweight-unification-fight-against-oscar-valdez-20220120-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shakur Stevenson is also a two-division World Champion</a> at just 24 years of age.

<h2>Bob Arum compares Valdez vs Stevenson to a legendary boxing trilogy</h2>
At 90 years old, Bob Arum can boast of having seen the best of boxing. The longtime promoter is an authoritative voice when it comes to making comparisons, which is why his comparison of the Super featherweight unification fight between Oscar Valdez and Shakur Stevenson to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/the-top-25-greatest-boxing-matches-of-all-time-20210416-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">one of the sport’s bloodiest and most exciting trilogies, like Erik Morales vs Marco Barrera</a>, is a harbinger of an epic bout to come.
“This looks to me a lot like the old MarcoBarrera and ErikMorales fights that we have enjoyed so many years ago. These guys are really terrific fighters. It is gonna be a very exciting fight. These guys have become skills and professionals, they have great corners, and how the fight is going to unfold is hard to predict.“, said Arum to Fight Hub TV Youtube Channel.
The explanation of whyTop Rank’s owner believes Oscar Valdez vs Shakur Stevenson could become a boxing classic like Morales vs Barrera was is the reason both boxers have to make this fight: “Both of these guys are very prideful, and have taken the fight not because they had to, but because they wanted to. Those kinds of fights are very intense and joyful to watch.“
