Lewis Ritson versus Miguel Vazquez breakdown

This is a really good step up fight for Ritson who can prove hes beyond domestic level by beating Vazquez. While Miguel Vazquez is a little past his prime hes still well beyond British level and is a hard night for anyone at super lightweight. Miguel Vazquez has a really awkward style and has goodContinue reading “Lewis Ritson versus Miguel Vazquez breakdown”

Thomas Patrick Ward versus Thomas Essomba breakdown

This isn’t a horrible fight but its one that I didn’t really want too see as I feel Ward has progressed past domestic level at this point. Thomas Essomba is a decent fighter but hes not even a European level fighter and has took this on short notice. Thomas Patrick Ward is very talented andContinue reading “Thomas Patrick Ward versus Thomas Essomba breakdown”

Emanuel Colon versus Antonio Moran breakdown

This should be a really solid fight between two rising contenders in the super Lightweight division. Antonio Moran is very underrated and has pushed multiple top guys to close decisions. Emanuel Colon is defending his belt he won last year after suffering an upset defeat a few years before. Antonio Moran has a decent jabContinue reading “Emanuel Colon versus Antonio Moran breakdown”

Yusuf Kanguel versus Petro Ivanov breakdown

Not many people will be excited for this match up but I believe it should be a competitive and fun fight. Yusuf Kanguel needs to win here or he will have to go back down to domestic level and perhaps have to look at his future in the sport. Petro Ivanov is on a reallyContinue reading “Yusuf Kanguel versus Petro Ivanov breakdown”

Qais Ashfaq versus Marc Leach breakdown

This is a good test for Ashfaq who should be aiming to move beyond domestic level within his next two or three fights. Marc Leach is on a good run of form but this is his biggest step up in competition yet. Qais Ashfaq is a 2016 Olympian and has a good amateur background. HeContinue reading “Qais Ashfaq versus Marc Leach breakdown”

Xander Zayas versus Anthony Curtiss breakdown

I normally wouldn’t do a breakdown for a four rounder like this but I thought it should be highlighted because of Zayas. He was the youngest boxer to ever sign with Top Rank and is seen by many people in the sport as a future star. It’s obvious how high hopes are for him asContinue reading “Xander Zayas versus Anthony Curtiss breakdown”

Eduard Troyanovsky versus Renald Garrido breakdown

This is a good test to see how much Troyanovsky has left in the tank at the age of 40 and after a decently long career. Renald Garrido is a journeyman but he always comes to fight and is much better than his 25-27-3 record suggests. Eduard Troyanovsky is decent fundamentally but can’t really fightContinue reading “Eduard Troyanovsky versus Renald Garrido breakdown”

Reiya Abe versus Ren Sasaki breakdown

This is a really good domestic clash between two Japanese fighters who need a decisive win soon. I think both do all things decently though Abe has proven he has a really good chin. I don’t think there is a huge difference between them however Abe is more experienced. I think because they are soContinue reading “Reiya Abe versus Ren Sasaki breakdown”

Why the Daniel Dubois-Joe Joyce fight not being PPV is great for boxing.

Like many people I thought the Dubois versus Joyce fight would end up on PPV due to the amount of interest in the match up. I personally thought it would be better off PPV but also understood the reasoning if it had been put behind a pay wall. The good thing about it not beingContinue reading “Why the Daniel Dubois-Joe Joyce fight not being PPV is great for boxing.”

Ievgen Khytrov versus Vaughn Alexander breakdown

This should be a solid fight and a good test for Khytrov too see if he can start to climb back towards the top of the super middleweight division. Ievgen Khytrov was a good amateur so does everything fundamentally well. He has a decent jab and throws in combination for the most part. I don’tContinue reading “Ievgen Khytrov versus Vaughn Alexander breakdown”
