In a recent conversation with Marcos Villegas of Fight Hub TV, Chris van Heerden breaks down his experience from being in the ring with both Errol Spence and Jaron Ennis, saying that while he’s certain that Ennis is a bigger puncher than Spence, he would still favor Spence to beat Ennis based on his technical
Chris Billam-Smith will be back in Bournemouth on Saturday, Dec. 17, headlining a Boxxer card on Sky Sports against Armend Xhoxhaj, with Dan Azeez taking on Rocky Fielding and more on the undercard. Billam-Smith (16-1, 11 KO) went back home to Bournemouth for his last bout on July 30, a 12-round decision win over Isaac
We recently learned that Chris Billam-Smith, Britain’s top cruiserweight behind Lawrence Okolie, will return to action in just over a month against Armend Xhoxhaj. We now know what his chief rival’s plans are, as Ben Shalom tells Sky Sports that Richard Riakporhe will meet former champion Krzysztof Glowacki, “likely” this coming January. Riakporhe (15-0, 11
It’s evening in Johannesburg and Kevin Lerena sits in darkness. “It’s called ‘load shedding’,” he explains to Bad Left Hook, rolling his eyes. “Every night there are planned power outages across South Africa to save on energy. It’s annoying, but we are pretty used to it now.” “I guess it’s similar to my career,” he
After last Sunday’s goofy brouhaha in Dubai, Jake Paul and Tommy Fury may be back on track to potentially fight, possibly, maybe. Fury’s father, John, who was a shirtless rabble-rouser in the verbal confrontation at the Mayweather vs Deji show, has said that Paul’s manager told them he’ll take the fight for February. Responding to
Two weeks ago, the WBA revealed that it had the power to compel undisputed title fights when it ordered featherweight titlist Erika Cruz to face IBF/WBC/WBO champion Amanda Serrano for all the marbles. They’ve now done so once again, giving super featherweight champ Hyun Mi Choi 30 days to come to terms with unified champ
It’s Tuesday! That means it’s podcast day here at Bad Left Hook! Listen, folks, I’m not gonna B.S. ya! Not gonna yank yer chain here — this is not a good little couple weeks for boxing. We were supposed to have Spence vs Crawford coming on Saturday. We don’t. So that means a mediocre week
Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn hasn’t exactly endeared himself to fans with some of his recent takes, but I think he gives a reasonable and honest assessment on both the business and politics of the boxing world, and why those factors have been a impediment to making fights like Errol Spence vs Terence Crawford and Gervonta
“I’ve done a lot of good things in boxing, my win over Kostya Tszyu, my fights in Las Vegas, but this is up there with one of the best,” admitted Ricky Hatton on Saturday night. The 44-year-old had just completed eight exhibition rounds against Marco Antonio Barrera, closing the show inside the Manchester Arena following
It was another week in boxing, and damn, kind of an odd one out there! Let’s get into what we saw. The basics: Janibek retained his WBO middleweight title, but didn’t score the crushing knockout many expected. The over/under line for this fight was 4.5 rounds, and we went all 12, with the Kazakh winning
Rarely do we see such a physical specimen that defies the logic of physical composition and raw talent. Boxing fans were blessed with such an anomaly in Lennox Lewis, who dominated the heavyweight division for his career. He was blessed when he came in, defeating Al Malcolm via knockout on June 27, 1989, at 23
DAZN and Social Media, 11:00 am ET, Rahman vs Belfort weigh-in. DAZN and Social Media, 3:00 pm ET, Munguia vs Coria weigh-in. ESPN+, 2:00 pm ET, Liam Davies vs Ionut Baluta. Not a bad fight, Davies is borderline top 10 at 122, in part because it’s not a very deep division for quality at the
Sunny Edwards retained his IBF flyweight title today in Sheffield, England, beating challenger Felix Alvarado by unanimous decision on scores of 115-113, 115-113, and 116-112. Bad Left Hook’s unofficial card was slightly wider to Edwards at 117-111, but the judges’ cards were fair, and the right man won the fight. Edwards (19-0, 4 KO) once

A number of fights were ordered by the WBC during their annual convention this past week, including one lightweight title eliminator between Shakur Stevenon and Isaac Cruz. Both Stevenson and Cruz are under different promotional umbrellas, which we would hope doesn’t stand in the way of marquee fights, but this is boxing and we know
MarvNation has put together a pretty much industry-standard pay-per-view undercard for their Nov. 26 event, which will be headlined by the vacant WBC 140 lb title fight Jose Zepeda and Regis Prograis. For much of the target audience here, Zepeda vs Prograis alone will be reason enough to watch the show, but a $60 price
