This Saturday, all eyes will be on Cancun, Mexico, where William Zepeda and Tevin Farmer are set to lock horns once again in a rematch for the WBC interim lightweight title. The first encounter between these two skilled fighters took place in November, resulting in a split decision victory for Zepeda. Now, both boxers aim to solidify their legacy in the boxing world as they step into the ring at the Poliforum Benito Juarez. This high-profile event also features other exciting matchups, including Oscar Collazo's defense of his WBO and WBA strawweight titles against Edwin Cano.

At just 28 years old, Zepeda has already established himself as a formidable force in the lightweight division. Hailing from San Mateo Atenco, Mexico, he boasts an impressive undefeated record of 32-0 with 27 knockouts. Despite suffering a knockdown in the fourth round of their initial bout, Zepeda managed to secure a hard-fought victory over Farmer. His rapid rise in professional boxing since 2015 includes victories over notable former champions like Maxi Hughes, René Alvarado, and Joseph Diaz.

On the other hand, Tevin Farmer, a former IBF super featherweight champion from Philadelphia, seeks redemption after experiencing his first two-fight losing streak in 2024. Following back-to-back defeats against Raymond Muratalla and Zepeda, Farmer aims to turn his fortunes around. Prior to this setback, the 34-year-old had successfully rebounded from his 2020 IBF title loss to Joseph Diaz by winning three consecutive fights.

Beyond the main event, fans can look forward to several thrilling undercard matches. Puerto Rico’s Oscar Collazo will defend his dual strawweight championships against Mexico’s Edwin Cano, while cruiserweight Robin Safar faces off against Roberto Silva. Additionally, Yokasta Valle battles Marlen Esparza in a flyweight clash, further adding to the evening's excitement.

The action kicks off at 8 p.m. ET on DAZN, with the main event expected to begin around 11 p.m. ET. As the bell rings, both Zepeda and Farmer will bring their unique styles and strategies to the fore, promising a night filled with drama and intensity that boxing enthusiasts won't want to miss.
