On December 12 in Las Vegas, the former featherweight champion Shakur Stevenson (14-0, 8 KOs) will hold his next fight. The American's rival will be Toka Kahn Clary (28-2, 19 KOs).

The 28-year-old Liberian returned to the ring in October after a one-year hiatus. Clary defeated Jonathan Perez for his third consecutive victory. The last time he lost was in 2018 to Kid Galahad.

The 22-year-old Stevenson last fought in June, stopping Felix Caraballo. For this performance, the fighter earned 400 thousand dollars. In July, Stevenson left the world featherweight title vacant and automatically became the official contender for the WBO super featherweight title.

Also during the December night of boxing, Felix Verdejo will fight Masayoshi Nakatani. The 27-year-old Puerto Rican last fought in July, and this will be his third fight this year.
