Mexican Valdez puts his WBC title at stake against WBO king Stevenson, one of America’s hottest talents, in their super-featherweight showdown in Las Vegas, live on Sky Sports from 2am on Sunday morning.
The two champions traded heated words at Thursday’s press conference, with Valdez insisting he had an answer to anything that Stevenson attempts in the ring.
