Ebanie Bridges returns after her war with Shannon Courtenay against the tough Bec Connolly. Bridges is 5-1 while Connolly is 3-9 but is better than her record suggests. I actually think this fight will be more competitive than people expect as Connolly has had a full camp and Bridges isn’t a hard stylistic match upContinue reading “Ebanie Bridges versus Bec Connolly breakdown”

Fabio Wardley versus Nick Webb breakdown
I think this match up is a lot closer than the bookies have it and as an English heavyweight title fight it’s great. Fabio Wardley is 11-0 with 10 knockouts and has progressed quickly as a pro while looking good for the most part. Nick Webb is 17-2 with 13 knockouts and while he’s hadContinue reading “Fabio Wardley versus Nick Webb breakdown”
Kid Galahad versus James Dickens 2 breakdown
This is an excellent fight for the IBF featherweight world title over twelve rounds. Kid Galahad is 27-1 with 16 knockouts, his lone loss was a split decision to then IBF Champion Josh Warrington in a fight he arguably could have won. James Dickens has gone on a good run of fights since losing backContinue reading “Kid Galahad versus James Dickens 2 breakdown”
Alen Babic versus Mark Bennett breakdown
Alen “The Savage” Babic will take on Mark “Bad News” Bennett over eight rounds in the second week of Matchroom’s annual fight camp series. Alen Babic (7-0, seven knockouts) has gone on a rampage over the last two years in true “savage” style and seemingly has no plans on stopping anytime soon. His latest challengerContinue reading “Alen Babic versus Mark Bennett breakdown”
Eric Walker versus Ivan Golub breakdown
This is a good fight between fringe contenders in the Welterweight and Super Welterweight divisions. Ivan Golub has gone on a solid run since losing a controversial decision to Jamontay Clark in 2017 while Walker recently put in a good but losing performance versus Uzbek prospect Israil Madrimov. Both are tough fighters who have beenContinue reading “Eric Walker versus Ivan Golub breakdown”
Michael Hunter versus Mike Wilson breakdown
I’m a little disappointed in Michael Hunter as he was on a good run at heavyweight but since drawing with Povetkin on the Anthony Joshua versus Andy Ruiz 2 card hes only had one fight versus a vastly inferior opponent and is doing the same here eight months later. Mike Wilson hasn’t fought since 2019Continue reading “Michael Hunter versus Mike Wilson breakdown”
Gakuya Furuhashi versus Seigo Hanamori breakdown
I’m a little surprised this fight is taking place as Hanamori doesn’t have a lot of experience and probably needs a few more fights before stepping up for a Japanese title fight at super bantamweight. Furuhashi the current champion has a wealth of experience and he used that to win the title in January. He’sContinue reading “Gakuya Furuhashi versus Seigo Hanamori breakdown”
Petro Ivanov versus Rafael Amarillas Ortiz breakdown
Petro Ivanov is a dark horse in the super middleweight division and if he keeps progressing could be in some fringe world level fights. Ortiz is a domestic fighter in Mexico who’s had mixed results and is a fairly average fighter in my opinion. I think Petro Ivanov will have too much power for OrtizContinue reading “Petro Ivanov versus Rafael Amarillas Ortiz breakdown”
Michael Polite Coffie versus Jonathan Rice breakdown
This should be a good fight for Coffie to get rounds in but not much else. Coffie has gone from being a heavyweight no one knew to being a fringe world level contender who was supposed to take on a good name in Gerald Washington this weekend. Washington had to pull out of the fightContinue reading “Michael Polite Coffie versus Jonathan Rice breakdown”
Sandy Ryan versus Kirstie Bavington breakdown
Sandy Ryan is making her pro debut after an accomplished amateur career. Bavington is a good opponent for her debut and clearly shows they want to move her quickly towards a title shot. Sandy Ryan is very technically good and may find her style fits the pro’s better than the amateurs. Bavington isn’t a badContinue reading “Sandy Ryan versus Kirstie Bavington breakdown”
