Shakur 'Sugar' Stevenson (16-0, 8 KOs) might be 11 years younger than his opponent but the New Jersey-born southpaw is already on course to become a two division champion having won the WBO featherweight world title two years ago, before moving up to challenge for the super featherweight strap.
"He's not my friend. I don't talk to him outside of boxing," Stevenson told reporters at Friday's tense weigh-in. "If he slips up and makes any mistakes, I am going to capitalise. You will see a special night – my coming out party. It's not sparring, bro".
Jamel Herring (23-2, 11 KOs), 35, is no dope. The ex-Marine, who goes by 'Semper Fi', secured the WBO super featherweight belt with a unanimous decision victory over Masayuki Ito in May 2019, and sent Carl 'The Jackal' Frampton into retirement with a dominant display back in April.
When it comes to technique, speed and defensive prowess, 5ft 7, Ash-Shakur Nafi-Shahid Stevenson, to give him his full name, is unrivalled in his class. But will 5ft 10 New Yorker Jamel Herring make his four inch reach advantage count?

How to watch Jamel Herring vs Shakur Stevenson abroad using a VPN
Even if you have subscribed to the relevant Herring vs Stevenson rights holders, you won't be able to use them when outside your own country. The service will know your location based on your IP address, and will automatically block your access.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) helps you get around this obstacle. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, such that the servers and services you’re accessing aren’t aware of what you’re doing. All the information passing back and forth is entirely encrypted.
There are many VPN providers out there, with some more reliable and safe than others. As a rule, we’d suggest a paid-for service such as ExpressVPN which offers a 100 per cent risk-free money back guarantee. If you're not happy with the service any time within the first 30-days, then you can cancel with no penalties at all.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. ExpressVPN is the one we recommend.
2. Open up the VPN app and choose the location of the service you wish to access. For Jamel Herring vs Shakur Stevenson, you may wish to choose 'Australia' for Fite.TV.
3. Then head over to Fite.TV on your browser or device and enjoy the Jamel Herring vs Shakur Stevenson live stream.
If, for whatever reason, you can't get it working, then do remember that you have the comfort of a 30-day money back guarantee with ExpressVPN. You could also try NordVPN, which also comes with a 30-day money back guarantee, and Surfshark which offers 24 hour assistance.
