Method of Victory
DECISION
Decision. Green outworks Stephens over 3 rounds. Stephens will look for one big shot early but his cardio and output have deteriorated significantly. Green controls the pace.
⚡FightIQ Analysis
Green is the clear pick. He's won two straight including a TKO of Zellhuber in February and looked sharp. Stephens missed weight by 4 lbs — a red flag for camp disruption — and is 1-8-1 in his last 10 fights. Green's high-output striking and fresher legs make this a comfortable win.
Risk Factors
- ⚠Stephens still has one-punch KO power — never truly safe against him
- ⚠Green lost to Pimblett by submission in 2024 — submission vulnerability exists
- ⚠Weight miss by Stephens suggests potential camp disruption but doesn't guarantee performance drop
