This is the hardest fight for me to predict this weekend as it really is so even and a real 50/50. Jermall Charlo hasn’t been fighting the best competition since moving to 160 due to politics in boxing and hes looked average versus the people he has fought for various reasons. Sergiy Derevyanchenko has beenContinue reading “Jermall Charlo versus Sergiy Derevyanchenko breakdown”

Daniel Roman versus Juan Carlos Payano breakdown
While on paper this looks like it could be a semi-competitive fight I personally think its going to be one sided in Roman’s favour. Daniel Roman is the bigger fighter who has been competing on par with the best fighters at Super Bantamweight and only just lost his world titles in a fight which couldContinue reading “Daniel Roman versus Juan Carlos Payano breakdown”
Jermell Charlo versus Jeison Rosario breakdown
This is the fight i’m most looking forward to this weekend because its a unification and a match up between the top two guys at Super Welterweight. Jermell Charlo is now a two time champion at 154 and is looking to unify the division and really start to establish his legacy. Jeison Rosario became anContinue reading “Jermell Charlo versus Jeison Rosario breakdown”
Bakhram Murtazaliev versus Manny Woods breakdown
This fight was put together as part of a step aside deal for Murtazaliev so that Jermell Charlo and Jeison Rosario can unify. It’s expected that if Murtazaliev wins this fight he will fight for the IBF title next whether it becomes vacant or not. Bakhram Murtazaliev has good power and looks for the knockoutContinue reading “Bakhram Murtazaliev versus Manny Woods breakdown”
Brandon Figueroa versus Damien Vazquez breakdown
I’m not going to sugarcoat this fight and say its great or anything because its not. It’s a tune up fight for Figueroa after he struggled badly in his last fight and got a draw against what to be fair to him was an overweight Julio Cejar. Figueroa looks like he could be a contenderContinue reading “Brandon Figueroa versus Damien Vazquez breakdown”
Mohamed Khalladi versus Domenico Valentino to take place 25th of September in Italy
This is a sneaky good fight as Valentino was a very good amateur who only came up short against Francesco Patera while Khalladi is having a good late career resurgence right now. The fight will be for the IBF Inter-Continental title over 12 rounds at Lightweight.
WBC extend Canelo-Yildrim purse bid
The WBC decided today to extend the purse bid between Canelo and Yildrim for the WBC vacant 168 pound title until October 6th. I presume sides have said they are negotiating otherwise I don’t see why they would extend it.
Ali Eren Demirezen, Viktor Vykhryst and Andriy Rudenko pick up wins in Ukraine.
All 3 heavyweights picked up wins today to help progress their careers. None of them were massive victorys which will get international attention but they were solid. Ali Eren Demirezen won a decision versus Kamil Sokolowski but didn’t look amazing in doing so. He came in close to his career heaviest so I imagine heContinue reading “Ali Eren Demirezen, Viktor Vykhryst and Andriy Rudenko pick up wins in Ukraine.”
Robeisy Ramirez versus Felix Caraballo breakdown
This is a good step up for Ramirez who is swiftly improving in his pro career. Felix Caraballo was a random fighter until he fought Shakur Stevenson and it looks like he’ll now be given as a test for up and coming prospects. Robeisy Ramirez was a great amateur and looks to have solid powerContinue reading “Robeisy Ramirez versus Felix Caraballo breakdown”
Jose Pedraza versus Javier Molina breakdown
This is a really solid fight between two top 140 pounders with the winner getting close to a title shot. Jose Pedraza is a solid boxer but has been losing the biggest fights of his career. I don’t think hes looked great at 140 pounds and has lost to Jose Zepeda who while being aContinue reading “Jose Pedraza versus Javier Molina breakdown”
