    Jose Zepeda is a fierce puncher and is elusive and fast as well. He has all the right components to be a champion. His record consists of 29 fights with 22 wins coming by knockout.

    Too bad he injured himself in the fight against Terry Flanagan, Terry would get beat up bad if this would continue.

    Jose Zepeda returns on October 21 against always challenging Michael Perez. If he wins this fight then this will be his 5 straight wins since injury loss to Flanagan and closer to a title fight.

    Top Rank said, that they will work with Zepeda for a big fight. Zepeda isn't signed to Top Rank.

    Here is his last fight:

    Flanagan said he would give him a rematch but he hasn't yet probably never will

    They offered a rematch to Flanagan, but he rejected it. I think it was right after he recovered from injury. They offered the rematch at least 2 times to the Flanagan's team.

    Actually, Flanagan wanted the rematch but then he spoke with Frank and changed his mind, haha. Frank will do everything to prolong his title run.
