Stevenson vs De los Santos: preview

Shakur Stevenson's attempt to become a three-weight world champion dominates the buildup to the WBC lightweight title fight on Thursday night, but Sugar's opponent, Edwin de los Santos, arrives in Las Vegas with more than a puncher's chance of causing a stunning upset. Even on a school night, it's one not to be missed.

The unbeaten Stevenson, an Olympic silver medallist in 2016, has had one previous fight at 135lbs in which he stopped Shuichiro Yoshino in April. The 26-year-old was a unified champion at super featherweight before failing to make weight in beating Robson Conceicao – who fights Emanuel Navarrete for the WBO strap at 130lbs in Vegas on a stacked undercard – last September and moving up the divisions was always on the cards for someone with such natural talent. Stevenson may not be the biggest puncher in the world, but the Newark native has frightening hand speed and head movement making him hard hit even with a handful of rice.

De los Santos should earn credit for taking the fight on. Ranked No.6 by the WBC, the Dominican is on a three-fight winning streak since suffering his sole professional defeat to William Foster III in 2022 and is a late replacement for No.2 on the list, Frank Martin. The 24-year-old is a solid southpaw with a good lead left hand but has been knocked down in the past by much more limited fighters than Stevenson and has some defensive weaknesses to be exploited.

Stevenson is a big favorite as he looks to set up a mega-fight with Devin Haney or Gervonta Davis down the line, but if De los Santos can use his aggression to get on the front foot then he could cause the upset. Here's how to watch a Stevenson vs De los Santos live stream, no matter where you are in the world.
