Vladimir Shishkin versus Oscar Riojas breakdown
Shishkin is one of the better prospects in the Super Middleweight division and will be looking to get his ring rust off here as this is a tune up bout. Oscar Riojas is a journeyman who normally gives people rounds and has fought a lot of the top up and comers in the Super MiddleweightContinue reading “Vladimir Shishkin versus Oscar Riojas breakdown”
David Benavidez versus Roamer Alexis Angulo breakdown.
This is a more interesting fight because Benavidez missed weight and Angulo looks very prepared. Benavidez looks to be one of the top talents in the sport but needs to be more dedicated. He is massive for the weight, has a good jab and is really powerful. His defence is a high guard while heContinue reading “David Benavidez versus Roamer Alexis Angulo breakdown.”
Michael Conlan versus Sofiane Takoucht breakdown.
On paper this should be a step up opponent for Conlan because Takoucht just fought for a world title but the reality is that Takoucht just isn’t very good. Josh Warrington who isn’t a massive puncher destroyed him in two rounds which is saying something. Conlan has very good technical skills and a very goodContinue reading “Michael Conlan versus Sofiane Takoucht breakdown.”
Carl Frampton versus Darren Traynor breakdown
This is a tune up fight for Frampton before he goes on to fight Jamel Herring later this year. There’s not a huge amount to break down in this fight as Frampton is the better fighter in almost every aspect. Carl Frampton is a two weight world champion who has recently been struggling with injuries.Continue reading “Carl Frampton versus Darren Traynor breakdown”
Archie Sharp versus Jeff Ofori breakdown.
This is a very interesting fight because Archie Sharp is a natural Super Featherweight while Jeff Ofori has competed at a good level all the way up at Super Lightweight. Archie Sharp is a big Super Featherweight however and will actually be the taller man in the ring. Both men came in over the 130Continue reading “Archie Sharp versus Jeff Ofori breakdown.”
Troy Williamson versus Harry Scarff breakdown.
Troy Williamson is one of the most underrated Super Welterweights in the UK right now. This is a good step up opponent for him as Scarff has boxed Anthony Fowler and went the distance with him. Harry Scarff tried to box off the back foot in the Fowler fight and had very limited success. HeContinue reading “Troy Williamson versus Harry Scarff breakdown.”
What’s next for Felix Cash, Jason Welborn plus card?
I enjoyed this card overall and the majority of the fights were evenly matched which I was very happy too see. John Docherty really impressed me by stopping Anthony Fox as Fox is a very good fighter and you have to be some talent to beat him inside the distance. I think Docherty should fightContinue reading “What’s next for Felix Cash, Jason Welborn plus card?”
David Benavidez misses weight, Loses WBC 168 pound title on the scales.
David Benavidez failed to make weight for his first defence of his 168 pound WBC world title today. He came in more than two pounds overweight and claimed he wouldn’t be able to get the weight off and even if he had wanted to the commission said they wouldn’t let him as it would beContinue reading “David Benavidez misses weight, Loses WBC 168 pound title on the scales.”
Kieron Conway versus Navid Mansouri breakdown.
This should be a very competitive fight as neither are beyond domestic level and look to be very evenly matched. Kieron Conway is a boxer who doesn’t have a lot of power and from what I’ve watched boxes best when he’s fighting off the back foot. I think the Ted Cheeseman fight flattered him asContinue reading “Kieron Conway versus Navid Mansouri breakdown.”
