William Zepeda And Tevin Farmer Rematch

The Interim WBC lightweight title will be on the line on Match 29 at Poliforum Benito Juarez in Cancun, Mexico, when William Zepeda and Tevin Farmer meet in a highly anticipated rematch. This marks the second time these two will face off, following their initial clash last November on the Zurdo vs. Billam-Smith undercard.

Undefeated William Zepeda (32-0, 27 KOs) not only boasts a spotless professional record, he also handed Tevin Farmer (33-7-1, 8 KOs) what was billed as the lone defeat on Farmer’s ledger in that November bout. Zepeda emerged victorious by a narrow split decision—scores of 95-94, 94-95, and 95-94—though the win didn’t come easily: Zepeda tasted the canvas in the fourth round courtesy of Farmer’s well-placed left hook.
