Shakur Stevenson vs. Edwin De Los Santos undercard: Complete list of fights before main event in 2023 boxing match image

Shakur Stevenson looks to become a three-weight world champion when he moves up in weight to face Edwin De Los Santos for the WBC lightweight title on November 16. The fight takes place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and airs on ESPN+ in the U.S.

A former WBO featherweight and WBO, WBC, and The Ring super featherweight champion, Stevenson (20-0) was stripped of the super featherweight belts after failing to make weight for a bout against Robson Conceicao. Clearly struggling to make 130 pounds, and looking for new challenges at lightweight, Davis moves straight into a world title fight.

De Los Santos (16-1) is on a three-fight win streak. Rated No. 6 by the WBC, he stepped up after Frank Martin, who is ranked No. 2, pulled out of fight negotiations.

Stevenson credits the Dominican southpaw, with 14 wins via knockout, for taking the fight.

“He’s (De Los Santos) definitely the best available option, with everybody saying no [to the fight]” Stevenson told MillCity Boxing via Boxing Scene. “He’s definitely a real good fighter. He got great movement, I consider him a boxer-puncher.” 

Outside of the main event, another title fight and several bouts featuring young guns highlight the undercard. Here’s a breakdown of the Shakur Stevenson vs. Edwin De Los Santos undercard.
