This should be a relatively easy win for Thun who is a rising prospect in the heavyweight division. He’s very tall, has a good jab and works to the body well. Mirko Tintor is coming in as a late replacement and often doesn’t come in shape. Almost every time hes stepped up in competition hesContinue reading “Christian Thun versus Mirko Tintor breakdown”

Tommy Fury versus Genadij Krajevskij breakdown
This should be an easy fight for Tommy Fury as hes fighting a journeyman who has lost 11 times but never won a fight. I have to question the match making for this fight honestly as I think Tommy Fury has proved hes beyond this level of opponent at this point. For the sake ofContinue reading “Tommy Fury versus Genadij Krajevskij breakdown”
Mark Heffron versus Denzel Bentley 2 breakdown
This should be a really good fight and the first one was a decent fight though didn’t quite live up to the hype it had behind it. Both are currently domestic level but a win here will progress them onto bigger fights and potentially being consistent headliners on BT Sport. I think this fight willContinue reading “Mark Heffron versus Denzel Bentley 2 breakdown”
Marcelo Esteban Coceres versus Sebastian Horacio Papeschi
This is Coceres first fight back since losing to Billy Joe Saunders last year in America. I thought Coceres had an impressive showing in that fight and showed he can compete at world level so I’d be surprised if he struggled here. Papeschi is a domestic guy in Argentina who was stopped when he steppedContinue reading “Marcelo Esteban Coceres versus Sebastian Horacio Papeschi”
Jeremias Nicolas Ponce versus Ruben Dario Lopez breakdown
This is a tune up fight for Ponce who is an underrated contender at super lightweight. He’s quite tall for the weight and fights well at range. He does pretty much everything better than Ruben Dario Lopez who is a journeyman. I think Jeremias Nicolas Ponce should win this fight by knockout in the 7thContinue reading “Jeremias Nicolas Ponce versus Ruben Dario Lopez breakdown”
Canelo Alvarez to fight Callum Smith in December
It’s been reported by @ChavaESPN on twitter that Canelo will fight Callum Smith in December in what is a slightly strange move in my opinion. I like the fight and think Smith is a good opponent for Canelo but presumably this fight will be broadcast on Dazn and Canelo recently got out of a longContinue reading “Canelo Alvarez to fight Callum Smith in December”
Jack Rafferty versus Tom Hill breakdown
This is the first big step up for Jack Rafferty as so far he has mostly been fighting journeymen and in doing so built a 12-0 record. Tom Hill is 9-1 but lost in his first big test. Jack Rafferty has a good one two and unlike a lot of prospects throws a variety ofContinue reading “Jack Rafferty versus Tom Hill breakdown”
Tursynbay Kulakhmet versus Macaulay McGowan breakdown
This is a solid step up fight for Kulakhmet who looked like he could be a future world champion when he debuted earlier this year. McGowan is a domestic level operator in the UK who hasn’t shown a huge amount of power or got to British level yet. I don’t think McGowan does anything betterContinue reading “Tursynbay Kulakhmet versus Macaulay McGowan breakdown”
Ultimate Boxxer : Super Middleweight tournament breakdown
This should be a fun 4 man tournament between four domestic super middleweights in the UK. I personally wish we had more tournaments in boxing as they create good narratives and normally make good fighters fight each other which doesn’t happen often enough in normal boxing. The first semi-final of the tournament is Zak ChelliContinue reading “Ultimate Boxxer : Super Middleweight tournament breakdown”
Timur Sakulin versus Vadym Novopashyn breakdown
This should be a competitive fight between two fighters who don’t have a huge amount of experience as pro’s. Timur Sakulin is 9-0 but hasn’t faced stiff competition yet while Novopashyn is 6-1 but has faced the better opposition. Timur Sakulin is an aggressive fighter who uses a lot of feints before jumping in withContinue reading “Timur Sakulin versus Vadym Novopashyn breakdown”
