This is a slight step for Sam Noakes who I think is a solid prospect in the lightweight division. Shaun Cooper is tough but limited and wasn’t able to do much against another prospect in Mark Chamberlain recently. I think Sam Noakes should have to much power for Cooper who isn’t much of a puncherContinue reading “Sam Noakes versus Shaun Cooper breakdown”

Lyndon Arthur versus Anthony Yarde 2 breakdown
This should be a solid fight though one where I didn’t feel a rematch was needed as Arthur clearly won the fight and as the fight wasn’t for a world title I didn’t see the need for a rematch clause. This fight should be better than the first as both fighters have had a yearContinue reading “Lyndon Arthur versus Anthony Yarde 2 breakdown”
Gervonta Davis versus Isaac Cruz breakdown
Gervonta Davis, one of boxing’s brightest young stars, makes his return to the ring on Sunday the 5th of December versus fast rising contender Isaac Cruz. The original fight was supposed to be Gervonta Davis versus Rolando Romero but Romero had a slue of sexual assault accusations made against him and Showtime wisely pulled himContinue reading “Gervonta Davis versus Isaac Cruz breakdown”
Campbell Hatton versus Attila Csereklye breakdown
This should be a solid learning fight for Hatton but not one where hes likely to look bad like his last fight. Csereklye is a durable journeyman from the European circuit with a lot of experience but has never used that experience to pull off an upset. Hatton didn’t look good in his last fightContinue reading “Campbell Hatton versus Attila Csereklye breakdown”
Kerman Lejarraga versus Jack Flatley breakdown
This should be a fun fight between two come forward fighters who like to let it all go in the ring. Lejarraga is an action fighter who can at any moment stop his opponent or be stopped himself. Jack Flatley is an underrated boxer-puncher who is taking a massive step up in this fight butContinue reading “Kerman Lejarraga versus Jack Flatley breakdown”
Abass Baraou versus Meriton Karaxha breakdown
While I don’t necessarily think this fight will be competitive I do think it’s good that Abass Baraou is getting active again. Baraou is in my opinion the best active German fighter and one of the most talented prospects in the super welterweight division. He had a great fight with Jack Culcay last year whichContinue reading “Abass Baraou versus Meriton Karaxha breakdown”
Michael Hunter versus Jerry Forrest 2 breakdown
This could be an interesting fight if Hunter underestimates Forrest and thinks this will be an easy nights work. Hunter is the more skilled fighter and already possesses a one sided win over Forrest but that was in 2014. Forrest showed a lot of heart and desire in his last fight and if he canContinue reading “Michael Hunter versus Jerry Forrest 2 breakdown”
Israil Madrimov versus Michel Soro announced for December 17th in Uzbekistan
This fight has been talked about for a while and it finally has a set date and location. The winner will be the mandatory challenger to the WBA super welterweight world title which means they’d get a title shot versus the winner of Jermell Charlo versus Brian Castano 2. I like this fight a lotContinue reading “Israil Madrimov versus Michel Soro announced for December 17th in Uzbekistan”
Thoughts on Stephen Fulton versus Brandon Figueroa and the weekends boxing
This was a great weekend of boxing where we saw two fights that can be added to the short list for the fight of the year. We also saw a massive upset which in my opinion will likely end up being the upset of the year. Stephen Fulton versus Brandon Figueroa was a terrific fightContinue reading “Thoughts on Stephen Fulton versus Brandon Figueroa and the weekends boxing”
Teofimo Lopez versus George Kambosos Jr breakdown
This isn’t a bad fight but its also one that might be uncompetitive due to how good Teofimo Lopez is. George Kambosos is a worthy title challenger but hasn’t shown anything to suggest, atleast to me, that he’s on Teofimo’s level. Teofimo Lopez is an athletic boxer-puncher with notable power. He has the boxing skillsContinue reading “Teofimo Lopez versus George Kambosos Jr breakdown”
