Mike Coppinger has reported that Inoue and Moloney are in talks for a fight that will be broadcast on ESPN or ESPN+. No date or location has been talked about publicly yet but I do know that Top Rank wanted to bring Inoue over to fight in the USA pre-pandemic. It wouldn’t surprise me ifContinue reading “Naoya Inoue versus Jason Moloney in the works.”

Sean McComb versus Siar Ozgul breakdown
This should be another good test for Sean McComb who appears to be one of the fighters that MTK are pushing the most. Ozgul in recent years has been given opportunities as the B-side to good prospects or high level guys and he’s in a similar situation here. Siar Ozgul isn’t a bad fighter andContinue reading “Sean McComb versus Siar Ozgul breakdown”
Jono Carroll versus Maxi Hughes breakdown
I’m not going to lie and try to sell this as a competitive fight as really this is a tune up fight for Carroll before moving onto bigger fights next year. Maxi Hughes is a decent domestic fighter but in recent years has shown he gets beat by the top fighters at British level. JonoContinue reading “Jono Carroll versus Maxi Hughes breakdown”
Pierce O’Leary versus Jacob Quinn breakdown.
This is the first step up fight for O’Leary who has only faced journeymen so far in his 4 fight pro career. Jacob Quinn is also 4-0 so this is a very good match up between two unbeaten prospects. Pierce O’Leary has substantial power though his record doesn’t show it because he’s only fought veryContinue reading “Pierce O’Leary versus Jacob Quinn breakdown.”
What’s next for Jamal James, Thomas Dulorme plus card?
I enjoyed this card though I really felt the commentary team was biased towards certain fighters and barely watched the actual fights sometimes. David Morrell clearly beat Lennox Allen over 12 rounds and showed he has a good gas tank and can make adjustments throughout the fight. We’ll have too see in upcoming fights howContinue reading “What’s next for Jamal James, Thomas Dulorme plus card?”
David Morrell versus Lennox Allen breakdown
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.”
