This is another decent learning fight for Marc Castro who is a top prospect in the sport after having a long amateur career. He has a come forward educated pressure style which breaks his opponents down and I think hes suited to being a professional rather than an amateur. Castillo hasn’t faced very good competitionContinue reading “Marc Castro versus Irving Macias Castillo breakdown”

Keyshawn Davis versus Jose Antonio Meza breakdown
This is another learning fight for Keyshawn Davis who is early in his pro career but is regarded as a top prospect. Jose Antonio Meza is a journeyman but is fairly tall for the weight class. Meza has upset one prospect who didn’t have a lot of expectation behind them but has fallen short againstContinue reading “Keyshawn Davis versus Jose Antonio Meza breakdown”
Billy Joe Saunders threatens to pull out of Canelo fight over ring size
In what is one of the more bizarre reasons for threatening to pull out of a fight Billy Joe Saunders has decided hes not happy with the ring being its usual size and wants a larger one. He wants a 24ft ring which as far as i’m aware isn’t even allowed by the commission theContinue reading “Billy Joe Saunders threatens to pull out of Canelo fight over ring size”
Sandy Messaoud versus Oliver Mollenberg breakdown
This should be a fairly competitive fight though Messaoud should have advantages because of how many punches he throws and his experience at a higher level. Mollenberg is only 20 and can have a long career ahead of him but I think it’s to big of a step up for him at this stage. IContinue reading “Sandy Messaoud versus Oliver Mollenberg breakdown”
Samuel Molina versus Viorel Simion breakdown
Samuel Molina is 15-0 with seven knockouts and at only 22 could have a bright future in the lightweight division. Viorel Simion is 39 and shouldn’t be fighting at lightweight as hes very small for the weight. Simion is also well past his best and is simply being used for his name value at thisContinue reading “Samuel Molina versus Viorel Simion breakdown”
Andy Ruiz versus Chris Arreola breakdown
I don’t think this is a great match up but it’s a good comeback fight for Ruiz and could potentially be a very fun fight. Andy Ruiz has very fast hands but slow feet. He can punch fairly hard but hes not a big one punch KO artist in my opinion. Chris Arreola is aContinue reading “Andy Ruiz versus Chris Arreola breakdown”
Jesus Alejandro Ramos versus Javier Molina breakdown
This is a good step up fight for Ramos who might be one of the best prospects in the sport in my opinion. He’s a 5,10 southpaw who campaigns at welterweight and has 14 knockouts out of 15 wins. Javier Molina isn’t a bad fighter and has a few good wins but has generally lostContinue reading “Jesus Alejandro Ramos versus Javier Molina breakdown”
Omar Figueroa Jr versus Abel Ramos breakdown
This should be a fun action fight between two big punchers coming off losses. Abel Ramos has real power but has a weakness of being out boxed by technical fighters however he should fare better in this fight. Omar Figueroa Jr looked like he was going to leave the sport but has returned after aContinue reading “Omar Figueroa Jr versus Abel Ramos breakdown”
Sebastian Fundora versus Jorge Cota breakdown
This is an excellent fight between rising prospect Fundora who is very tall for the weight and come forward fighter Cota who has mixed it with the best of the division. I really think Fundora is hard to deal with because of his height and the fact hes perfectly happy to fight on the inside.Continue reading “Sebastian Fundora versus Jorge Cota breakdown”
Johnny Fisher versus Phil Williams breakdown
Johnny Fisher is going through the stage of his career where he faces the journeymen that every British heavyweight prospect fights in their first five fights. Phil Williams is a tough guy but at 3-27-1 he is clearly a journeyman and unlike Sokolowski he doesn’t pull off upsets very often. Johnny Fisher should be allContinue reading “Johnny Fisher versus Phil Williams breakdown”
