Fulton (23-1, 8 KOs) believes it's his turn to steal Foster's belt, which would give him a major title in a third division.
Stephen Fulton isn’t the type to talk trash, and he knows how good upcoming opponent O'Shaquie Foster is. Speed, timing, IQ and a pinch of power, the WBC junior lightweight champ has it all.
But when the two officially meet up Oct. 25 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Fulton doesn’t expect it to be a competitive bout.
“I see me dominating the fight,” Fulton said to Red Glove News on its YouTube channel.
Who has the edge in skills is debatable. However, Foster (23-3, 12 KOs) is naturally bigger. The 31-year-old has spent his entire career at 130 pounds, which has allowed him to fill out and become one of the division's biggest names. Fulton will be making his debut in the weight class.
Foster last fought in November, when he outpointed Robson Conceicao in a rematch to regain his title after losing it to the Brazilian by a decision four months earlier.
Now Fulton (23-1, 8 KOs) believes it's his turn to steal Foster's belt, which would give him a major title in a third division. And he has a history of taking things that don’t belong to him. He ripped away world titles from Angelo Leo and Brandon Figueroa, the latter on two separate occasions and resulting in his current WBC featherweight title reign. Foster, he's convinced, will simply be another victim.
What does he have to do to get it done? It's not complicated.
“Just being myself and making the adjustments when they need to be made,” Fulton said. “It’s all about making adjustments.”
