James Dickens versus Ryan Walsh breakdown

This fight is over 10 rounds in the featherweight division and is the final of the Golden Contract tournament that MTK put on. James Dickens has gone on a good run since he lost back to back fights to Guillermo Rigondeaux and Thomas Patrick Ward. Ryan Walsh is one of the most underrated fighters inContinue reading “James Dickens versus Ryan Walsh breakdown”

One to watch : Fiodor Czerkaszyn

With all the talk of long time middleweight champion Gennadiy Golovkin facing Kamil Szeremeta from Poland I thought I’d write about another rising Polish middleweight and one that in my eyes is better than Szeremeta. Fiodor Czerkaszyn has flown under the radar in Poland as over the course of five years hes built himself aContinue reading “One to watch : Fiodor Czerkaszyn”

Fearghus Quinn versus Scott James breakdown

This is a good test for Quinn in his second fight and should give him rounds to develop further as a pro. Scott James is a journeyman who wins one then loses one. He’s fought a lot of prospects and goes for the win but so far has had to settle for one draw andContinue reading “Fearghus Quinn versus Scott James breakdown”

Rene Tellez Giron wins by knockout in Mexico

Rene Tellez Giron won by knockout in Mexico earlier today in what is his first fight this year. Giron is a fighter worth watching as at the age of 21 hes already caused two upsets over touted prospects and gone the distance with Michel Rivera who is regarded as a very good prospect at lightweight.Continue reading “Rene Tellez Giron wins by knockout in Mexico”

Daniel Dubois versus Joe Joyce breakdown

This is one of the best fights of the year and a real 50/50 in most peoples eyes. Daniel Dubois looks to be one of the most promising prospects in boxing while Joe Joyce is a rising heavyweight contender with a stellar amateur background. Daniel Dubois has a great jab and sets up his punchesContinue reading “Daniel Dubois versus Joe Joyce breakdown”

Florian Marku signs with matchroom

Florian Marku has recently signed a promotional contract with Matchroom boxing. The promising Albanian prospect has a huge fan base and I imagine that is one of the major reasons he got a multi fight deal with a big promoter. I expect him to start being pushed towards domestic opponents in the UK such asContinue reading “Florian Marku signs with matchroom”

Nikita Ababiy versus Brandon Maddox breakdown

This should be a solid test for Ababiy though one he should pass in my opinion. Brandon Maddox is a good domestic fighter in the USA but generally loses when he steps up against good amateurs and prospects. Nikita Ababiy is a powerful middleweight prospect who is slowly learning his craft. He isn’t quite asContinue reading “Nikita Ababiy versus Brandon Maddox breakdown”

Daniyar Yeleussinov versus Julius Indongo breakdown

This is a good step up fight for Yeleussinov who has moved quite slowly so far in his pro career considering how good of an amateur he was. Julius Indongo is a former unified champion but is 37 now and been knocked out in his last two big fights. To be fair to him thoseContinue reading “Daniyar Yeleussinov versus Julius Indongo breakdown”

Emmanuel Tagoe versus Mason Menard breakdown

This should be a solid fight and a good test for Tagoe who is a promising contender in the lightweight division. Mason Menard has become a measuring stick for rising prospects in the division at this point though he always gives it everything. Emmanuel Tagoe has good boxing skills even if they are slightly unorthadoxContinue reading “Emmanuel Tagoe versus Mason Menard breakdown”

Daniel Jacobs versus Gabriel Rosado breakdown

While this fight is interesting because of the bad blood involved between the two I personally don’t see it being that competitive and the fact that its been put together at all frustrates me a little. Daniel Jacobs after competing in the middleweight division for years has decided to move up to super middleweight whichContinue reading “Daniel Jacobs versus Gabriel Rosado breakdown”
