During yesterday’s opening press conference for Deontay Wilder vs Robert Helenius, which will receive its chief support with a fight between super middleweights Caleb Plant and Anthony Dirrell, Dirrell took some time to field media questions about the personal dislike between Plant and himself. Here, Dirrell says he doesn’t quite care for the way Plant
Things have not been going well for Eddie Hearn of late vis-à-vis light heavyweight contender Joshua Buatsi. First, the WBA smacked down Hearn’s attempt to have Buatsi leapfrog Zurdo Ramirez for a crack at Dmitry Bivol, forcing Matchroom to focus instead on an ordered IBF eliminator against Jean Pascal. Then, earlier today, DiBella Entertainment outbid
Today has been just full of surprises. Not long after Lou DiBella snatched Joshua Buatsi vs Jean Pascal out from under Eddie Hearn’s nose, MarvNation Promotions won the rights to Jose Zepeda vs Regis Prograis with a gigantic $2.4 million bid, doubling up on PBC’s $1.2 million offer.

The “MF x DAZN Series” will continue on Saturday, Oct. 15, as MMA legend Vitor Belfort will face Hasim Rahman Jr in a boxing match from Sheffield, England. Rahman appeared on the “MF x DAZN” card today in London to speak about the fight being official. It wasn’t clear if it will be DAZN or
Jose Pedraza and Richard Commey came into tonight’s ESPN main event from Tulsa, Okla., both needing a win, and when all was said and done, neither of them got it.

Sky Sports (UK), 2:00 pm ET, Liam Smith vs Hassan Mwakinyo. This may wind up on FITE+ in the U.S., but maybe not. The main event is OK at best on paper, Mwakinyo has won a bunch in a row but the competition has been middling, and Smith has always, always done the business against
KSI knocked out Swarmz in the second round of their internet celebrity boxing fight today at London’s O2 Arena, and followed it up a few hours later with a third round stoppage of extremely low-level professional boxer Luis Alcaraz Pineda.

And then there was one. Jake Donovan and Dan Rafael report that Josh Taylor has officially relinquished his IBF title, which he was ordered to defend against Jeremias Ponce earlier this month. As a result, Ponce has been ordered to face Subriel Matias for the now-vacant title. Odds are good that they won’t need the
