Floyd Schofield Sr. says his son, ‘Kid Austin’, will be ready to replace the injured William Zepeda and face Shakur Stevenson for his WBC lightweight title on February 22.
Schofield Sr. says Kid Austin (18-0, 12 KOs) will fight Shakur (22-0, 10 KOs) wherever he wants, and they’ll give half their purse to “charity.” He declares that the winner of the fight can face Zepeda.
What Schofield Sr. not saying is that Oscar De La Hoya has to agree to the fight, and he may not want to let him because Kid Austin is nowhere near ready.
“Shakur, you know Zepeda duck. You knew it would happen. So what’s going on? Let’s make it happen,” Floyd Schofield Sr. said. said social media. “We will be ready for February 22 to meet you wherever we need to meet, and we will donate half of our bag to charity.
“This is no excuse. Be ready to sign. The ink is nice and ready, Shakur. let’s go Let’s give the fans a great fight, and the winner can fight, fight or do whatever they want with Zepeda. I guarantee you, we’re going to stop you, Shakur. We are ready,” Schofield Sr. said.
