This is a bit of a hard fight to break down as Morrell has only had two fights and boxed three rounds professionally. He did have a very good amateur career but I try not to judge fighters on their style in the amateurs as the pro game is completely different. This is a veryContinue reading “David Morrell versus Lennox Allen breakdown”

What’s next for Terri Harper, Natasha Jonas plus card
While I don’t think this week of fight camp was as good as last week it was still a solid card though as I predicted a few of the matches weren’t very competitive even though on paper perhaps they should have been. The main event really delivered beyond expectations but the rest of the cardContinue reading “What’s next for Terri Harper, Natasha Jonas plus card”
Jorge Linares versus Javier Fortuna cancelled.
News broke recently that Jorge Linares has tested positive for Corona Virus while training in Japan for his fight with Javier Fortuna. He reportedly has no symptoms but has been advised to rest for 10 days as a precaution. The fight has since been cancelled and Golden Boy are currently looking for a new opponentContinue reading “Jorge Linares versus Javier Fortuna cancelled.”
Terri Harper versus Natasha Jonas breakdown
This should be a relatively competitive fight as Harper has proven she is a world level fighter and this is Jonas’s last chance at a world title. Harper has a very solid jab and is very consistent with her 1-2. She has decent feints and foot work and doesn’t get hit all that much. WhenContinue reading “Terri Harper versus Natasha Jonas breakdown”
Aqib Fiaz versus Kane Baker cancelled after Fiaz falls ill.
Matchroom announced today that the fight between Fiaz and Baker was cancelled due to Fiaz feeling ill after the weigh in. I presume this was related to an issue with weight cutting as he failed to make the 132 pound limit for this fight. Chris Lloyd tweeted that Fiaz is currently in hospital but itContinue reading “Aqib Fiaz versus Kane Baker cancelled after Fiaz falls ill.”
Aqib Fiaz versus Kane Baker breakdown
This is a fight that I believe is very close to a 50/50 as Fiaz hasn’t had a lot of experience yet and Baker has proven he’s at least an area level fighter. A lot of respect has to be given to both fighters for taking this fight but especially Fiaz as this is aContinue reading “Aqib Fiaz versus Kane Baker breakdown”
Chris Billam-Smith versus Nathan Thorley breakdown.
This is a good fight for the Commonwealth Cruiserweight title. Chris Billam-Smith has proved he’s one of the top Cruiserweights in the UK by beating Craig Glover and in my opinion beating Richard Riakporhe though he didn’t get the decision. Smith will be looking to win in good fashion here so he can move onContinue reading “Chris Billam-Smith versus Nathan Thorley breakdown.”
Ivan “Hopey” Price versus Jonny Phillips breakdown
This is a good opponent for Price in what is only his third fight. Jonny Phillips is a journeyman but has scored an upset before against Nathanael Wilson so this fight should push Price more than his first two. Jonny Phillips is an unorthodox fighter who changes style depending on how he feels in theContinue reading “Ivan “Hopey” Price versus Jonny Phillips breakdown”
Angelo Leo wins vacant WBO 122 pound world title
Over the weekend Angelo Leo won the vacant Super Bantamweight world title by unanimous decision. The scores were 117-111, 118-110 and 118-110 and while you could argue these were slightly wide he thoroughly deserved the decision. His opponent Tremaine Williams started off well countering Leo and making him miss but as the rounds went onContinue reading “Angelo Leo wins vacant WBO 122 pound world title”
Anthony Fowler versus Adam Harper breakdown
This should be a tune up fight for Anthony Fowler before he moves on to big fights against the likes of Ted Cheeseman and Scott Fitzgerald. If Adam Harper wasn’t coming off a major lay off then this fight would be competitive but he hasn’t fought for well over a year and never proved himselfContinue reading “Anthony Fowler versus Adam Harper breakdown”
