After Errol Spence Jr had to pull out of the fight versus Manny Pacquiao, this fight was made as a replacement. I think it’s an excellent fight considering how short notice it is. Ugas is a top five welterweight who is getting the opportunity of his career on Saturday night. Pacquiao has hinted that thisContinue reading “Manny Pacquiao versus Yordenis Ugas breakdown”

Zhan Kossobutskiy versus Joey Dawejko breakdown
This is a good step up for Kossobutskiy who is 15-0 but has faced a fairly low level of competition so far in his career. Joey Dawejko is a well known gatekeeper at heavyweight and has faced a lot of top names in the division throughout his career. Zhan Kossobutskiy is a good technical boxerContinue reading “Zhan Kossobutskiy versus Joey Dawejko breakdown”
Mark Magsayo versus Julio Ceja breakdown
This is a great fight between the unbeaten Mark Magsayo and former WBC Super Bantamweight world champion Julio Ceja. Magsayo has been a professional since 2013 but has moved slowly due to both his age and his need for developmental years to work on his skills. He’s a boxer-puncher who has good left hooks. HisContinue reading “Mark Magsayo versus Julio Ceja breakdown”
Jose Nunez versus Jorge Saquinga breakdown
This is a better fight than it looks on paper as Saquinga recently scored an upset win over Julio Cortez who went on to fight Albert Bell in America as a B side. Jose Nunez is a fringe prospect who will likely struggle to get big fights and opportunities because hes from Panama. That mightContinue reading “Jose Nunez versus Jorge Saquinga breakdown”
Jaime Arboleda versus Jonathan Victor Barros breakdown
This is a decent comeback fight for Jaime Arboleda who lost to Chris Colbert in his last fight. Jonathan Victor Barros has won his last two fights but is past his best. Arboleda is a tough boxer-puncher who has lapses defensively. Barros is the same but a lot older at 37. I think this fightContinue reading “Jaime Arboleda versus Jonathan Victor Barros breakdown”
Carlos Castro versus Oscar Escandon breakdown
This is a decent fight for Castro who is 26-0 but is only recently getting onto big cards. He’s a talented fighter who looked like a real threat to both super bantamweight and featherweight in his last fight where he dominated the tough Cesar Juarez. He showed a good offensive arsenal in that fight alongContinue reading “Carlos Castro versus Oscar Escandon breakdown”
Roger Gutierrez versus Rene Alvarado 3 breakdown
The second fight between these two was great and I expect the third to be more of the same. Gutierrez is the bigger puncher of the two and scored three knockdowns in their last fight. Alvarado was out-working Gutierrez in a lot of the rounds he didn’t get knocked down in but lost the fightContinue reading “Roger Gutierrez versus Rene Alvarado 3 breakdown”
Vergil Ortiz Jr versus Egidijus Kavaliauskas breakdown
This is an excellent fight between fast rising young contender and the veteran Kavaliauskas. Ortiz Jr is a big puncher and is dangerous at mid range. When hes at not at mid range hes not as confident punching and will mostly throw jabs and single punches. Kavaliauskas has power but is vulnerable defensively. I thinkContinue reading “Vergil Ortiz Jr versus Egidijus Kavaliauskas breakdown”
Albert Bell versus Julio Cortez breakdown
Albert Bell is a fighter I think could win a world title on his day, he’s a massive super featherweight with huge reach and height advantages over his opponents. He uses his height well and boxes at range, moving around the ring and not getting into exchanges. Julio Cortez is a fairly basic fighter whoContinue reading “Albert Bell versus Julio Cortez breakdown”
Carlos Balderas versus Fidel Cervantes breakdown
This is a good comeback fight for Balderas after he was knocked out in his last fight, all the way back in 2019. He’s changed trainers and moved away from home comforts to have a second try at his career. Fidel Cervantes is also coming off a loss but his was in 2021. I thinkContinue reading “Carlos Balderas versus Fidel Cervantes breakdown”
