While it is not unusual to hear that an amateur boxer about to turn pro has options from which to choose, rarely do these options include a completely new direction; a handbrake turn so sharp it would lead not only to whiplash but the end of one career and the start of another. Then again,
As the film “The Featherweight,” about the life of boxing great Willie Pep, enters wide release, this week a different BoxingScene contributor will reflect on a boxing biopic that resonates with them. Today: “Bleed for This.” At a cinema in the West End of London in 2016, Vinny Pazienza – or Vinny Paz, as he
There’s a scene in the Will Ferrell film “Kicking and Screaming” where Robert Duvall’s character is trying to compare his manhood and success with Mike Ditka’s. “I can’t hear you,” Ditka responds, flashing his Chicago Bears’ 1985 Super Bowl season memento, “my ring is making too much noise.” Brazil’s Robson Conceicao similarly wears his World
Terence Crawford seems to have a single-minded pursuit of Canelo Alvarez in progress for now, but the pound-for-pound elite and unbeaten four-division champion is finding it hard to deny that he, too, is being targeted. The past week has seen WBA junior-middleweight champion Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs) called out by former UFC two-division champion Conor
Welterweight Quinton Randall is aiming to move into contender status when he takes on Janelson Figueroa Bocachica in his hometown of Houston tomorrow.

Joshua, one of the most popular
By: Sean Crose Dmitry Bivol has done what few have done before – beaten the great Canelo Alvarez in a boxing ring. And while some could argue that moving up once again to light heavyweight was a bridge too far for Canelo, or that he was starting to show signs of wear and tear when
Find out why professionals are using BoxBandz By: Sean Crose It was without doubt a world class beatdown.

By: Sean Crose “My hands have never hurt so bad after a fight,” Mikaela Mayer said Friday night after winning the WBO welterweight title off of Sandy Ryan in a high octane throwdown.

By: Sean Crose “I didn’t think he beat me last time,” Tyson Fury recently said to IFL, “and I’m damn sure not going to let him beat me this time.” Fury, for those who don’t know, lost a war to Oleksandr Usyk last May on the cards in Saudi Arabia. He doesn’t want things to
By: Sean Crose “The World Boxing Association (WBA) Championships Committee has granted special permission to super featherweight world champion Lamont Roach Jr. to move up in class to face Gervonta Davis for the lightweight championship on December 14.” And so, with the above statement, it seems the hard hitting, popular and undefeated Gervonta Davis has
By: Sean Crose It’s understandable why some, if not most, fight fans would consider super middleweight/light heavyweight Canelo Alvarez to be a bridge too far for junior middleweight Terence Crawford. One hundred sixty eight pounds is quite a weight advantage to hold over a one hundred fifty four pound fighter. Even at a catchweight it’s
By: Sean Crose Boxing fans will have a nice present for themselves this Christmas season if ESPN is to be believed.
