Cavalcade of Champions Monthly Update
Posted: 16 Oct 2018, 16:42
Jean Marc Mormeck is the #3 Cruiserweight in the world behind James Toney and Juan Carlos Gomez. Mormeck is running 5-1-0 (5) in his last six fights. Testing his mettle against heavyweights instead of cruiserweights, it wouldn't be surprising if Mormeck one day manages to get a shot at the heavyweight crown. Week #8 was the last time the Frenchman fought for the Cruiserweight championship, back when "Lights Out" was the title holder.
"Gypsy King" Tyson Fury has had a phenomenal comeback. Oftentimes barely hanging on to the bottom five of the top fifty heavyweights he's now ranked #22 in the world after an eleven fight win streak. His "one punch knockout" over Boston's Peter McNeeley remains the ONLY flawless victory the entire heavyweight field has had thus far this season. He's staying true to the game plan of development, rather than taking unnecessary risks. Set to fight Tom McNeeley in week #22 he's most likely to square off against Leon Spinks or Martin Rogan next.
Jack Johnson has had a bizarre career this season. In his first seven fights he won the WBC championship against Joe Louis only to lose it in his maiden defense to Rocky Marciano and then Johnson did "the impossible" defeating Drazen Durakovic by knockout in the fourth round. However, after that amazing victory, Johnson has had many set backs. A freak loss on cuts to Evander Holyfield (4 rounds) followed by a broken hand stoppage against Louis (3 rounds) forced Johnson to take a "break" from tough competition. He then went 4-0-0 against Carnera and Sharkey and Sullivan and Coetzee before facing Gene Tunney for the WBC championship which resulted in a highly entertaining draw. Johnson went 4-0-0 again over Norton and Johansson and Weaver and Dokes before entering the 2nd Prizefighter Tournament where he lost a three-round split decision to Johnny Nelson. Johnson is to rematch Nelson in week #22 and then challenge Ali in week #23 provided "The Greatest" agrees to a ten-round match.
Amanda Serrano cannot ever seem to catch a break. She's gone 2-3-1 in her last six. Christina Hammer seems to be her "mortal enemy" always blocking her from breaking through into the top ten and getting a shot at the Women's Championship. Serrano has gone 0-1-1 against Hammer. Currently ranked #11 in the world following a loss to the titantic Vonda Ward, she hopes to rack up four or so victories before challenging whomever the champion of the world will be at that time.

Then I guess that is a blatant "NO" and we will go after Gene Tunney or some other willing victim after we beat the crap out of Johnny Nelson then.
