Re: Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez vs. Avni Yildirim - February 27, 2021
Even though it was a premature stoppage, still a nice win for amateur star Keyshawn Davis. Personable and good boxing skills & looks like a future pro star. Despite winning at the Olympic Trials it looks he'll be passing up the Tokyo Games since he says he plans on 8 more pro fights this year. ...

Re: Jared Anderson Faces Toughest Test On Feb. 13 Smith-Vlasov Undercard
Cool anecdote about how Kingsley Ibeh got his start in boxing, because of his day job as insurance salesman. https://www.boxingnews24.com/2021/02/a-few-undercard-fights-to-watch-this-saturday-february-13th/ Anderson is a young and up and coming prospect at only 21 years old.

Re: How will the long layoff after a devastating loss affect Deontay Wilder?
Would it be wiser for Deontay Wilder to have a confidence-building warm-up fight soon, rather than waiting for the outcome of the arbitration with Fury? A long layoff after a devastating loss like Wilder suffered a year ago cannot be good for him. I think he needs a fight to get his focus back, ins...

Re: Boxing’s repeatedly predicted demise and rise
Boxing never dies because there's always another Superstar to pull it out of the fire. Canelo is keeping it afloat for now, but there'll be another major star coming in the next 10 to 20 years in all likelihood that'll get over to even bigger degree. Great point! Given the fact that Latinos are the...

Re: Pavel Silyagin & Albert Batyrgaziev
Thanks for that! Both of these prospects are going to make global impact IMO. I think Batyrgaziev is a future world champ in the professional ranks. He is already rated #1 P4P in BoxRec's global amateur ranks & he's only 22! https://boxrec.com/en/ratings?role=amateurboxer&offset=0&sex=M&...

Re: Jared Anderson Faces Toughest Test On Feb. 13 Smith-Vlasov Undercard
How are we sure that this Ibeh guys better than Rodney Hernadez. I'm not so sure. I had a good reason for saying Ibeh is a tougher test for Anderson than Hernandez was. If you had seen either Ibeh or Rodney in action you would understand why that is. Hernandez is more of a tough brawler with a soli...

Premature stoppage in that last prelim but Oberlton looks like another Philly gem who could make major impact as a pro. His body work was very impressive.

Re: Futures Bet : Joey Spencer
Spencer is good & still learning so I think at age 20 he will be brought along slowly. I figure he will lose in about his 17th or 18th bout when he takes a serious step up. That definitely wont be today because Seldon is a scrub whose last 2 losses were 1st-round KOs.

Big Fulton guy after that fight. Terrific stuff. Would love to see him get it on with Danny Roman. That would be an uppercut fest. That would be a great matchup.
