O’Shaquie Foster To Rematch Robson Conceição for WBC Super Featherweight Title

BY BOXING HIT STAFF-

O’Shaquie Foster is set to face off against Robson Conceição in a rematch for the WBC super featherweight title on November 2nd at the Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York. This comes after Foster’s bitter loss to Conceição earlier this year, where he lost his title in a 12-round split decision.

Following his defeat to Conceição on July 6th, Foster expressed bitterness and claimed that he believed he had done enough to warrant a victory. However, many fans and experts disagreed, stating that Foster was outworked, outfought, and outclassed by the Brazilian champion. The scores of 116-112, 115-113, and 116-112 in favor of Conceição further solidified the decision.

Questionable Tactics

Throughout the fight, Foster seemed to adopt a defensive strategy similar to that of Shakur Stevenson, focusing on not getting hit and landing only a few shots to win rounds. This approach proved ineffective as Conceição continuously outworked and outlanded Foster, earning him the victory and the title.

Despite Foster’s claims of deserving the win, it was clear to many observers that Conceição was the superior fighter on that night. The Brazilian champion had previously been on the wrong end of controversial decisions in fights against Emanuel Navarrete and Oscar Valdez, making this victory all the more satisfying for him.

Unfinished Business

Another fighter looking to settle a score is Abraham Nova, who also felt robbed of a victory against Foster earlier this year. Nova, who will be facing Humberto Galindo on the undercard of the Foster-Conceição rematch, believes he should have already received a rematch against Foster. His determination to prove himself as the true champion mirrors that of Conceição.

The upcoming rematch between O’Shaquie Foster and Robson Conceição promises to be a thrilling showdown. With both fighters seeking redemption and looking to settle scores, fans can expect an exciting night of boxing action at the Turning Stone Resort Casino. Will Foster be able to reclaim his title, or will Conceição once again prove why he is the deserving champion? Only time will tell.
