This is a tune up fight for Ponce who is an underrated contender at super lightweight. He’s quite tall for the weight and fights well at range. He does pretty much everything better than Ruben Dario Lopez who is a journeyman. I think Jeremias Nicolas Ponce should win this fight by knockout in the 7thContinue reading “Jeremias Nicolas Ponce versus Ruben Dario Lopez breakdown”

Canelo Alvarez to fight Callum Smith in December
It’s been reported by @ChavaESPN on twitter that Canelo will fight Callum Smith in December in what is a slightly strange move in my opinion. I like the fight and think Smith is a good opponent for Canelo but presumably this fight will be broadcast on Dazn and Canelo recently got out of a longContinue reading “Canelo Alvarez to fight Callum Smith in December”
Jack Rafferty versus Tom Hill breakdown
This is the first big step up for Jack Rafferty as so far he has mostly been fighting journeymen and in doing so built a 12-0 record. Tom Hill is 9-1 but lost in his first big test. Jack Rafferty has a good one two and unlike a lot of prospects throws a variety ofContinue reading “Jack Rafferty versus Tom Hill breakdown”
Tursynbay Kulakhmet versus Macaulay McGowan breakdown
This is a solid step up fight for Kulakhmet who looked like he could be a future world champion when he debuted earlier this year. McGowan is a domestic level operator in the UK who hasn’t shown a huge amount of power or got to British level yet. I don’t think McGowan does anything betterContinue reading “Tursynbay Kulakhmet versus Macaulay McGowan breakdown”
Ultimate Boxxer : Super Middleweight tournament breakdown
This should be a fun 4 man tournament between four domestic super middleweights in the UK. I personally wish we had more tournaments in boxing as they create good narratives and normally make good fighters fight each other which doesn’t happen often enough in normal boxing. The first semi-final of the tournament is Zak ChelliContinue reading “Ultimate Boxxer : Super Middleweight tournament breakdown”
Timur Sakulin versus Vadym Novopashyn breakdown
This should be a competitive fight between two fighters who don’t have a huge amount of experience as pro’s. Timur Sakulin is 9-0 but hasn’t faced stiff competition yet while Novopashyn is 6-1 but has faced the better opposition. Timur Sakulin is an aggressive fighter who uses a lot of feints before jumping in withContinue reading “Timur Sakulin versus Vadym Novopashyn breakdown”
Georgi Chelokhsaev versus Yauheni Dauhaliavets breakdown
This should be a competitive fight between two rising contenders in the Super Lightweight division. Georgi Chelokhsaev has recovered well after an early setback and is only one or two fights away from breaking into the world scene. Yauheni Dauhaliavets turned pro this year after an extensive amateur career and has made short work ofContinue reading “Georgi Chelokhsaev versus Yauheni Dauhaliavets breakdown”
Florian Marku versus Muma Mweemba breakdown
I think this should be a relatively easy tune up fight for Marku who is a rising prospect in the Welterweight division. Muma Mweemba is coming off a two year lay off into this fight and lost his last fight to a journeyman that he really shouldn’t have lost too if hes going to haveContinue reading “Florian Marku versus Muma Mweemba breakdown”
Filip Hrgovic versus Rydell Booker breakdown
Hrgovic is one of the best heavyweight prospects around right now but really needs to move past this level of opposition. Rydell Booker isn’t a terrible fighter but hes old now and is just being used as a measuring stick for heavyweight prospects and contenders. Filip Hrgovic has great technical skills and massive power whichContinue reading “Filip Hrgovic versus Rydell Booker breakdown”
Zhilei Zhang versus Devin Vargas breakdown
This is a tune up fight for Zhang who recently signed a promotional contract with Matchroom. Devin Vargas is a journeyman heavyweight at this point who isn’t best known for his durability. Zhilei Zhang is a tall southpaw who has good technical skills due to his extensive amateur background. Hes a decent puncher and evenContinue reading “Zhilei Zhang versus Devin Vargas breakdown”
