Zepeda vs. Farmer 2
Saturday, Feb 29, 2025 | Cancun, Quintana Roo, Mexico | Live on DAZN | Lightweight (12 rounds)
On Saturday, March 29, 2025, the boxing world turns its eyes to Cancun, Mexico, as undefeated Mexican powerhouse William Zepeda (32-0, 27 KOs) faces seasoned American veteran Tevin Farmer (33-7-1, 8 KOs) in a high-stakes rematch for the WBC Interim World Lightweight Championship. With pride, redemption, and a title on the line, this 12-round showdown promises fireworks. Zepeda aims to defend his unblemished record on home soil, while Farmer seeks to rewrite the narrative after a rocky recent run. DAZN broadcasts the action live.
Zepeda’s relentless pressure and southpaw stance will test Farmer’s ability to stay disciplined under fire. The Mexican’s 3-inch height and reach advantage could let him control distance with jabs and hooks. Farmer’s best path to victory lies in counterpunching and exploiting Zepeda’s occasional defensive lapses. However, Farmer’s recent decision losses suggest he may struggle to sway judges in Zepeda’s backyard.
Zepeda by TKO/KO (Rounds 7-9). Farmer’s durability and craftiness may extend the fight, but Zepeda’s youth, power, and relentless body attack will wear down the American. Expect the Mexican’s pressure to force a referee stoppage as Farmer’s mobility declines.
This rematch is more than a title fight—it’s a crossroads for both men. Zepeda can solidify his claim as a lightweight boogeyman, while Farmer has one last chance to prove he belongs among the elite. With contrasting styles and high stakes, Zepeda vs. Farmer 2 guarantees drama. Tune in to DAZN on March 29 to witness history unfold under the Cancun lights.
