This is a really good fight between Vergil Ortiz Jr who is storming towards a world title shot at Welterweight and Maurice Hooker who is a former champion at Super Lightweight. Virgil Ortiz Jr is a big puncher with a solid jab and relentless pressure. He works to the body well and has stopped allContinue reading “Vergil Ortiz Jr versus Maurice Hooker breakdown”

Bakhodur Usmonov versus Bektas Kassenay breakdown
This should be a fun fight as Usmonov is only 1-0 but already has a decent win under his belt. He didn’t look great in the fight and his promoters now likely know not to rush him but I presume he’ll have learnt a lot. Usmonov was a very good amateur and has turned proContinue reading “Bakhodur Usmonov versus Bektas Kassenay breakdown”
Alexander Besputin versus Viktor Plotnikov breakdown
This isn’t a great fight but Besputin needs a tune up after a long time out the ring due to a failed drugs test. Besputin was a rising contender in the Welterweight division but a positive drugs test left him with a short ban and his most recent fight becoming a no contest. Plotnikov isContinue reading “Alexander Besputin versus Viktor Plotnikov breakdown”
Khariton Agrba versus Helber Rojas breakdown
This isn’t a great fight as Agrba is 4-0 after a long and successful amateur career while Rojas hasn’t beat a fighter with a winning record since 2018. I think Khariton Agrba will likely win this fight by knockout due to his technical skills and experience versus better competition.
Pavel Silyagin versus Azizbek Abdugofurov breakdown
This is an excellent fight in the Super Middleweight division between two technically gifted fighters who also have a decent amount of power. Pavel Silyagin has been pro for slightly over a year and has already got a record of 6-0. Abdugofurov has been a pro for almost 5 years and is 13-0. Pavel SilyaginContinue reading “Pavel Silyagin versus Azizbek Abdugofurov breakdown”
Artur Beterbiev versus Adam Deines breakdown
This isn’t a very good fight especially considering its for two world titles. Artur Beterbiev is 15-0 with 15 knockouts and is seen as one of the most dangerous champions in the sport while Deines recently lost an eliminator and is around European level. Neither has fought recently so ring rust shouldn’t make a difference.Continue reading “Artur Beterbiev versus Adam Deines breakdown”
Ellie Scotney versus Mailys Gangloff breakdown
This is a good step up for Ellie Scotney who will likely be fast tracked towards a world title. Gangloff is 4-1 with her only loss being a split decision for the French title. Ellie Scotney was very impressive on her debut where she showed both power and technical skills. I think Ellie Scotney willContinue reading “Ellie Scotney versus Mailys Gangloff breakdown”
Ramla Ali versus Bec Connolly breakdown
This is a decent fight for Ali considering it’s only her second pro fight. Ramla Ali was a good amateur who may still go to the Tokyo Olympics and is clearly very good technically. Bec Connolly is a tough fighter who has fought lots of prospects and fighters on the domestic scene. I think RamlaContinue reading “Ramla Ali versus Bec Connolly breakdown”
Bradley Rea versus Lee Cutler breakdown
This is a good fight between two unbeaten middleweights who want to become regular TV fighters. Bradley Rea is tall for a middleweight and fights similarly to Callum Smith. He works to the body well and tucks up when his opponents punch but rarely moves his head. He had a good amateur background and isContinue reading “Bradley Rea versus Lee Cutler breakdown”
Joe Cordina versus Faroukh Kourbanov breakdown
This isn’t a good fight though its sort of understandable given how long Cordina has been out the ring. Cordina is a good prospect in the Super Featherweight division who is looking to get a world title shot either later this year or early next year. Kourbanov is really a domestic level fighter in myContinue reading “Joe Cordina versus Faroukh Kourbanov breakdown”
