Almost two years ago Hassan Mwakinyo pulled off one of the biggest upsets of 2018 by knocking out Sam Eggington in 2 rounds. He’d taken the fight on a weeks notice and was given no chance of winning especially as the fight was happening in Eggington’s home town of Birmingham. He did what promoters andContinue reading “Hassan Mwakinyo deserves a big fight and more opportunities.”

Sam Eggington versus Ted Cheeseman breakdown
This should be a highly entertaining fight where the winner will look towards fights with Scott Fitzgerald or people on the world level while the loser will have to go down a level and will unlikely to be on TV again. Both normally have come forward styles and like to get into wars so thisContinue reading “Sam Eggington versus Ted Cheeseman breakdown”
Caoimhin Agyarko versus Jez Smith breakdown.
Caoimhin Agyarko was a very good amateur who won multiple national titles and competed in tournaments around Europe as well as taking part in the World series of boxing. He’s made a good start to his pro career and looks to be progressing quickly as this is just his 7th fight and its a significantContinue reading “Caoimhin Agyarko versus Jez Smith breakdown.”
Lyndon Arthur versus Dec Spelman breakdown.
This is an excellent domestic match up between two top 10 British Light Heavyweights. Arthur took a big step up in class in his last fight and pushed through some hard moments to pick up the Commonwealth title. Dec Spelman has operated around British level for his last few fights and has been competitive inContinue reading “Lyndon Arthur versus Dec Spelman breakdown.”
Zaur Abdullaev versus Pavel Malikov announced for August 22nd in Russia.
This fight was announced by RCC boxing promotions today and its certainly one too look forward too. It’s a risky fight for Abdullaev coming off the loss to Devin Haney as Malikov is arguably the second best lightweight in Russia. I like the match making here as the winner isn’t too far off a titleContinue reading “Zaur Abdullaev versus Pavel Malikov announced for August 22nd in Russia.”
5 Realistic fights for Vergil Ortiz Jr (26/7/2020)
As Vergil Ortiz Jr continues to climb in the stacked Welterweight division he’ll need bigger and bigger tests. Baring that in mind I’ve had a look through the rankings and found five fighters that he could realistically fight next that would also help progress him in his career. The first fighter I thought of isContinue reading “5 Realistic fights for Vergil Ortiz Jr (26/7/2020)”
Joe Joyce versus Michael Wallisch breakdown
This should be a relatively easy fight for Joyce as when Wallisch steps up to the highest level he loses and he loses quickly. Joyce may be slow but he is unrelenting and relatively heavy handed. His defense isn’t great but that won’t be a problem in this fight Wallisch doesn’t have a good defenseContinue reading “Joe Joyce versus Michael Wallisch breakdown”
Seniesa Estrada versus Miranda Adkins breakdown
Miranda Adkins is coming in at short notice and I don’t think this will help her at all. This should be a bit of a tune up for Estrada who notched her career best win last time out. Seniesa Estrada is an aggressive fighter who has excellent boxing skills and decent power for her weightContinue reading “Seniesa Estrada versus Miranda Adkins breakdown”
Shane Mosley Jr versus Jeremy Ramos breakdown
This should be a tune up fight for Mosley before he gets into bigger fights later this year or next year. He just signed a contract with Golden Boy and this is his first fight with them. It’ll be interesting too see how they build him as he’s 29 and will presumably want as manyContinue reading “Shane Mosley Jr versus Jeremy Ramos breakdown”
Vergil Ortiz Jr versus Samuel Vargas breakdown
This is a really good step up for Vergil Ortiz as Samuel Vargas has fought some of the best fighters in the Welterweight division such as Errol Spence and Danny Garcia. For Samuel Vargas this fight provides him a chance at a title shot if he wins. I do think this is probably the lastContinue reading “Vergil Ortiz Jr versus Samuel Vargas breakdown”
