DAZN News Daily Round-Up - Stevenson to Zuffa, former world champion backs Moses, and Benn's brother makes comeback
Here are all the big boxing stories from today, Friday, July 10
Stevenson makes big move
One of the worst-kept secrets in boxing is now out there after Shakur Stevenson put pen to paper on a deal with Zuffa Boxing.
The current WBO super-lightweight champion has joined Dana White’s upstart promotional group, and there is set to be an announcement on when his first fight with his new company will be.
Earlier this year, Stevenson registered the biggest win of his career when he jumped to 140lbs to defeat Teofimo Lopez in New York City.
Stevenson has been linked to several huge fights for his Zuffa debut, with Devin Haney a serious possibility for the Newark man.
Mason vs. Bell Highlights
Nelson big on Moses
Moses Itauma faces another huge test next month when he puts his unbeaten record on the line against Filip Hrgovic in London.
Moses has looked superb in the early stages of his career, and he has picked up some impressive wins over the likes of Dillian Whyte and Jermaine Franklin.
Hrgovic is expected to represent a significant step up for Itauma, but former world cruiserweight champion Johnny Nelson believes Moses will be too good.
Johnny Nelson was speaking on Fight Your Corner, in partnership with Midnite.
“Moses Itauma is too sharp, too smart, too young – he learns a lot about himself in this fight, but Moses stops him late on.”
Benn's brother returns
Harley Benn and Joe Laws will finally meet on September 12 after a long-running rivalry.
The confident pair have gone back and forth in recent years, and they will now look to light up the undercard in Newcastle when Jordan McCann battles Big Stacks on the latest Misfits show.
Lee Eaton, who has a great relationship with both fighters, confirmed the fight on his Instagram page.
