Reigning lightweight titleholder Shakur Stevenson takes center stage, sort of, for the third defense of his WBC belt against challenger William Zepeda at Louis Armstrong Stadium on the grounds of the national tennis center in Queens, N.Y.—home of the annual U.S. Open tournament.

The Edgar Berlanga vs. Hamzah Sheeraz match will take place at the Louis Armstrong Stadium in New York City on Saturday, July 12. The broadcast will begin at 6 p.m. ET (3 p.m. PT). The Berlanga-Sheeraz main event will end the night four hours later, at 10 p.m. ET (7 p.m. PT).

Zepeda (33-0, 27 KOs), the WBC interim titlist, has won back-to-back decisions over former junior lightweight champion Tevin Farmer -- a split decision in November and a majority decision in March. In his previous 20 fights, Zepeda had 18 KOs.
