Should Minimum weight be removed?

I have been thinking recently that Minimum weight doesn’t serve much of a purpose. Any fighter that fights at minimum weight wouldn’t be undersized at Light Flyweight so why not get rid of minimum weight and make the talent pool at Light Flyweight deeper. Minimum weight world title fights are rarely broadcast on major TVContinue reading “Should Minimum weight be removed?”

David Benavidez and why he has the most potential out of everyone at 168 or 175

David Benavidez is already a two time Super Middleweight champion however didn’t actually lose his belts in the ring. He was effectively stripped of his title because he tested positive for Cocaine and wasted a bit of his career. This won’t be a problem however as hes only 23 and shouldn’t be in his primeContinue reading “David Benavidez and why he has the most potential out of everyone at 168 or 175”

Fights I want too see at Heavyweight in 2020

This time i’m going to go over 3 heavyweight fights I want too see beyond the obvious ones of Fury versus Joshua etc. The first fight i’d like to see is Oleksandr Usyk versus Dillian Whyte. I think this fight would firstly be entertaining and secondly would be a great test to see how goodContinue reading “Fights I want too see at Heavyweight in 2020”

Rene Alvarado the comeback king.

Rene Alvarado is someone that a few years ago you would have called a gatekeeper and perhaps started to question whether he should think about hanging the gloves up. Fast forward to now and hes on an eight fight win streak and has claimed the WBA regular title at super featherweight. That regular title shouldContinue reading “Rene Alvarado the comeback king.”

Kenshiro Teraji versus Pedro Guevara : A review

I’m going to start doing more fight reviews due to the lack of boxing going on. I thought I’d start with a fight I recently watched and thought was interesting. The first four rounds saw some back and forth action with Teraji being out worked and countered by Guevara for the most point. Guevara reallyContinue reading “Kenshiro Teraji versus Pedro Guevara : A review”

Daniel Dubois versus Joe Joyce would have taken place today.

The much hyped all British heavyweight clash would have taken place today and I would have been in attendance. Unfortunately because of the Corona Virus the event has been rescheduled to July 11th. I will still be attending as long as the Corona Virus has calmed down however I expect it to be rescheduled yetContinue reading “Daniel Dubois versus Joe Joyce would have taken place today.”

Kevin Lerena the dark horse of the cruiserweight division.

Kevin Lerena is a 25-1 Cruiser-weight from South Africa who has been making steady defenses of his IBO Cruiser-weight title since 2017. Hes also a southpaw which may make many hesitate to fight him. In the last two years hes emerged as a top 10 Cruiserweight and could have a big impact on the divisionContinue reading “Kevin Lerena the dark horse of the cruiserweight division.”

Fres Oquendo still ranked 15th by the WBA at heavyweight.

Oquendo despite not fighting since 2014 is still ranked by the WBA at heavyweight which seems completely insane. The reason he is still ranked is because legally he has the right for a world title shot. For one reason or another he still hasn’t gotten the money or his title shot as the WBA orderedContinue reading “Fres Oquendo still ranked 15th by the WBA at heavyweight.”

Fighters that will benefit from this break.

While this break from boxing will not help a lot of boxers for certain ones this could be a hidden blessing. The first fighter that this could help is Deontay Wilder who was supposed to be fighting Tyson Fury in the summer. That fight has been cancelled which gives Wilder more time to make adjustmentsContinue reading “Fighters that will benefit from this break.”
