Re: Artur Beterbiev vs. Joe Smith - TBA

what Eddie Hearn has to do with Beterbiev and Smith?

I thought they were Bob Arum's cards.

Oscar Rivas? Makhmudov?

Does anyone have any inside about Rivas and Makhmudov?

They have not fight for a big while and since they are not the youngest cats in HW - it is pretty weird.



Rivas has withdrawn from Takam fight and there is no info about reschedule

Re: Shakur Stevenson vs. Felix Caraballo - June 9, 2020

I hope Jared and Guido would go for impressive KO because of more attention given this card due to coronavirus break.

They might not get better opportunity to make a leap.

Re: Joe Joyce v Daniel Dubois

Joyce because of his slow-motion style has become one of the most underrated fighters in division if not the most. He has rich amateur career (beating Dychko, Yoka, Hrgovic, Majidov, Demirezen, demolishing Vykhryst and Clarke), Only 10 Pro fights but was quite impressive in his wins. I would say it ...

Re: Joseph Parker vs. Lucas Browne in Serious Talks

So McKean reckons he'd be a tougher test for Parker than Lucas Browne. I don't disbelieve him, in fact I'd probably go so far as to say Joe Goodall or Justis Huni would be a tougher test for Parker than the 2020 version of Lucas Browne despite their having respectively negligible and no professiona...

Re: Rank middleweight boxers

1. Canelo - if he ever decides to cut again to 160 he should be number one. Phenomenal fighter. Mature, skilled, great defensive instincts and one of hardest chins in business right now. Should have been taken "0" from his record but it does not matter since GGG has slightly declinded sinc...

Re: Name your HW prospects?

Opetaia is a tidy boxer with good mobility and a right jab that looks a lot longer than his recorded reach might suggest. It's difficult to get a handle on how good he is because I know a lot less about cruisers anyway, never mind those campaigning in Australasia. I'd never heard of Flanagan but Bo...

Re: Name your HW prospects?

He might have seen off Lucas Browne, but if Demsey McKean thought he was going to be without meaningful challenges for his Australian Heavyweight Title for the foreseeable, he might need to re-evaluate. What do you think about Opetaia? regardless of division he would choose In Aus/NZL I personally ...

Re: Name your HW prospects?

another two names fighting in CW but I can easily imagine them fare very well in HW - Evgeniy Tischenko and Jai Opetaia They are too huge for CW but still not big enough for HW yet. Size could be issue as always with that kind of category jump but both extremely skillfull with good punch power and w...

Re: Name your HW prospects?

Rivas has had problems with his eyes which has hampered his progress, and maybe that might account for why he's based himself in Canada rather than the US, although I wouldn't have expected Canada to be less stringent on their licensing requirements than many US States. With the narrow defeat to Wh...

Thanks for your words of encouragement, it feels good to know someone appreciates my efforts and isn't thinking 'why doesn't this windbag STFU?" Let's have a look at your list then: I enjoyed reading it even more in your reply. Great to read something more than just "XXX is gonna be great...

Re: Name your HW prospects?

Lukasz Rozanski: Best win was an impressive 4 round KO over Izuagbe Ugonoh but I think the loss to Breazeale rather knocked the stuffing out of Izu, and I don't know if he was mentally the same fighter he had been. I suspect not. Rozanski struck me as a tough uncomplicated brawler without any fines...

Re: Name your HW prospects?

any inside about David Adeley e? Personally, I don't trust Tony Yoka that much. He was knocked down couple of times fighting with helmet on. Considering he has no room for PEDs since he was caught - resistance is hardly possible to develop. Filip Hrgovic is dodger and would be able to crack multiple...

Oscar Rivas

let's make a KABOOM thread does anyone know something more about his amateur career? except of Wikipedia there is basically nothing Has he been ever knocked down in both pro and am? He seems to be more or less full package in terms of jaw, punch power, durability, legs and mental. IMO, his main weak...
