As Tyson Fury continually pump fakes the public with talks of his retirement, Top Rank’s Bob Arum talks to Fight Hub TV about his perspective on Fury’s future plans and why he says you can’t take anything Fury says too seriously. And as Arum tells it, Fury is an attention whore — and yes, I’m

During a conversation with Marcos Villegas of Fight Hub TV, Top Rank promoter Bob Arum talks about Teofimo Lopez’s return to action this weekend against Pedro Campa and what could potentially lie ahead for Lopez as he looks to campaign at the 140 lb division. On Lopez looking to show that he’s still the same
Here’s a development with a lot going on under the surface: Fernando Barbosa revealed earlier today that the IBF has ordered Josh Taylor to defend his super lightweight titles against Jeremias Ponce, with Jake Donovan adding that the two have until August 23rd to avoid a purse bid. On paper, this seems pretty self-explanatory. When
Tyson Fury sort of came out of nowhere when he announced that he’s looking to push off retirement in order to take on a trilogy match against Derek Chisora. To be fair, it wasn’t really a fight on anyone’s radar nor one that was clamored for with Fury having decidedly won two previous bouts with
During this video interview with Fight Hype, Teofimo Lopez talks more about the recent discussions of a potential fight against Ryan Garcia, his ambition to become undisputed champion once again, and why he’s not worried about taking on some of the biggest stars around his weight class. Check out some of what Lopez had to
The WBA have officially denied a request from Dmitry Bivol’s team for permission to face Joshua Buatsi next instead of ordered mandatory challenger Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez, meaning Bivol will have to face Zurdo next or be stripped of his 175 lb title. Bivol (20-0, 11 KO) is coming off of a huge win over Canelo
Daniyar Yeleussinov is in somber spirits and has the look of a man who has been worn down by the bureaucracy and red tape of professional boxing. “I don’t really like boxing, I just like to win,” the 31-year-old Kazakh welterweights tells Bad Left Hook. “I need a promoter; I need to fight,” he continued.
Claressa Shields vs Savannah Marshall was pitched as an all-woman card, and that’s what we’re getting. BOXXER officially revealed the nine-bout undercard, which includes four Tokyo 2020 Olympians. Leading the way is gold medalist Lauren Price (1-0, 0 KO), who debuted in June and now faces Hungary’s Timea Belik (6-6, 2 KO) at 147. Featherweight
Omar Figueroa Jr and Adrien Broner are both in pretty much a must-win position when they meet in their Aug. 20 Showtime main event. Figueroa has lost his last two fights, neither of them competitive, and says he had to look inward to address the issues that led to those performances. “I’m just worried about
When last we left Terence Crawford vs Errol Spence, negotiations had hit an unspecified snag, and it looked as though this sport would once again fail to produce one of the most obvious and desirable matchups on the table. Now, however, Dan Rafael reports that a deal is “nearing completion” for either November 12th or
Tyson Fury may officially be retired, at least in his own public statements, but basically nobody is taking it seriously as something long-term, and that can only change if Fury himself just stays away. Promoter Frank Warren tells talkSPORT that he doesn’t expect that will be the case, saying Fury has “itchy feet” and “wants
As the heavyweight title rematch between unified champion Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua nears, former world champion Carl Frampton shares his account of what Joshua needs to change in the sequel if he’s going to come out on top. Frampton agrees with the idea that Joshua will have to physically impose himself on the smaller
Bernard Hopkins is no longer involved in promoting Canelo Alvarez, but he’s still clearly a big fan of the Mexican superstar, and is picking Canelo to stop Gennadiy Golovkin when those two rivals meet for a third time on Sept. 17. “I think there’s going to be more blows coming from both sides. I’m picking
Vergil Ortiz Jr kept his unbeaten record and stoppage streak intact, putting a game but over-matched Michael McKinson away early in the ninth round tonight in Fort Worth, Tex.

VERGIL ORTIZ JR Opening remarks: First of all, I just want to say thank you to everyone for being here. I didn’t like my performance. I’m not going to lie, I was not pleased with it at all. It’s probably the worst one I’ve had so far. But, we only get better. It’s just a

Tonight was supposed to be the return of Jake Paul to a boxing ring, but his fight with Hasim Rahman Jr was canceled, wrapping up the dumbest couple months of absolute nonsense you’ll ever see in boxing, a sport that specializes in dumb nonsense.
