Ring Magazine revealed in a perfect today Example of double talkShakur Stevenson against William Zepeda will be treated like the main event during the Fight Week, but on the night of the fight, Edgar Berlanga against Hamzah Sheeraz will be the main list on July 12 in New York. Do they deliberately try to create ambiguity?
Who has headlines?
It seems that the Shakur-Zepeda battle is the most important event during the week of the fight, but not the evening of the event, the fans will confuse. They will expect the fight to the head. If they see Berlanga against Sheeraz in the main line, they will go to it as a bait-and-switch Trade and feel deceived.
July 12 Card
- Edgar Blangga vs. Hamzah Sheeraz: Main event
- Shakur Stevenson vs. William Zepedia: Co-Main
- Alberto Puello vs. SubBriel Matias
- David Morrell vs. Imam Khataev
“Ring Magazine 3 on July 12 in New York will host co-head events: Edgar Berlanga-Hamzah Seeraz and Shakur Stevenson-William Zepeda. Stevenson-Zepeda will be treated as the main event during Fight Week; on the magazine on ring magazine at the time X.
According to the magazine Ring, the event will hold two co-chief events, Shakir-Zepeda and Berlanga-Heeraz. This is not possible. No event has two co-head events. There is only one main event, not two.
The strategy of treating Shakur-Zepeda as the most important event will upset fans who will get a fake picture, and think that the fight is the most important event on Fight Night. They will not be pleased to see Berlanga-Sharaz as the final battle of the night.
Many fans see the two as a talent-hype lanes that do not belong in a main setup of a PPV battle. The only way it would make sense for the two to be on the top position is if it was a non-PPV event, and if there was scab on the bottom map. This is not the case here.
