Tevin Farmer’s Rematch Claim Laughed Off By Fans

Tevin Farmer claims a rematch with lightweight phenomenon William Zepeda “coming soon,” and he still insists he should have won their fight last Saturday night in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Boer can wait a long time for that reunion with Zepeda to happen, because it’s never going to happen in this lifetime. Zepeda easily won their fight last Saturday for the Latino Night event at The Venue in Riyadh. I think I speak for everyone when I say there is no point in running back in a rematch.

Boer needs to get in line and move back down to 130 because he doesn’t have the pop in his punches to exist in the 135-lb division with killer sharks like Zepeda, Abdullah Mason and Gervonta’ Tank Davis.

“REMATTE COMING SOON……. BIG DAWG 2,” said Tevin Farmer Instagram about a second fight with William Zepeda.

Zepeda moves on

Except for one round, the fourth, Zepeda (32-0, 27 KOs) knocked on the brakes on former IBF 130-lb champion Farmer (33-7-1, 8 KOs), hitting him with body shots that doubled him over have. over. No fans want to see Zepeda overwhelm Farmer a second time with volume punches.

Farmer will have to live with his loss. I know it hurts, but he needs to take the pain, learn and come back from where he came at super featherweight. He’s like on another planet, fighting at lightweight, and he doesn’t have the life support system to exist in this strange area.

It’s boring because the outcome is already predictable. Zepeda is on a different level than the 34-year-old Farmer, who had nothing to offer with his Shakur-esque fighting style, which was quickly undone by the Mexican punching machine.

Zepeda passed that test, showing that his style is too much for the old, obsolete, archaic, dinosaur potshot approach that Farmer and Shakur both use. That style is so baffling in this era of boxing, and no one wants to see Zepeda rematch Farmer or fight Shakur. Zepeda wants the ‘Big Tuna’, Gervonta Davis, to fight the King of the Lightweight Division.

Boer had nothing to offer Zepeda except an occasional pot shot. That’s how he got the fourth round blitz from Zepeda. It was a single pot shot.

Golden Boy promoter Oscar De La Hoya probably won’t want to back it up with Farmer, as he wants to move Zepeda into a world title fight against one of the lightweight champions.

Initially, they were interested in fighting WBC belt holder Shakur Stevenson, but with Zepeda’s impressive performance, they want WBA champion Gervonta Davis. This would be a massive fight for Zepeda.

Zepeda outworked Farmer in the other nine rounds and should won by a lopsided 10-round unanimous decision if the judges included body shots in scoring the fight. However, the judges were only zoomed in on head shots, so they scored it a close 10-round split decision.

Zepeda-Boer judges’ scores

– 95-94 for Boer
– 95-94 for Zepeda
– 95-94 for Zepeda

I had it 9-1 in Zepeda’s favor over Farmer, and it wasn’t even a competitive fight. Even in Farmer’s best round, the fourth, it was all Zepeda except for the blitz.
