The ongoing Ryan Garcia vs Gervonta Davis saga continues, with Garcia now saying that he will fight Davis at “any weight.” “It’s any weight, any time, any place,” Garcia said on social media. “There’s your answer Floyd — oh yeah, you can get it, too, if you want.” “Calling out” the 45-year-old Mayweather, who hasn’t

Joet Gonzalez and Isaac Dogboe are set for tonight’s ESPN+ main event, which is indeed a WBC featherweight eliminator and is also for a minor WBO title, set for 10 rounds from Hinckley, Minn. Gonzalez and Dogboe look well-matched on paper and could give us a pretty damn good fight, so while this is no

Greg Leon, who advises former light heavyweight champion Jean Pascal, tells ESPN that the IBF has ordered his charge to face Joshua Buatsi in an eliminator. Buatsi sits atop the rankings at the moment with Pascal three places behind, but with Anthony Yarde pursuing a WBO mandatory bout with Artur Beterbiev and Zurdo Ramirez ordered

With Omar Figueroa set to make his return next month when he faces Adrien Broner in an Aug. 20 Showtime main event, Omar Figueroa spoke with reporters on how he’s feeling heading into this fight which has been talked about for a while but now set on the schedule. “I’m excited that this fight is

Folks, we cannot tell a lie: For in-ring action, this is a pretty dead coming weekend in boxing. But there is one fight of note on major U.S. TV, and it’s at least a well-matched fight on paper, as Joet Gonzalez faces Isaac Dogboe in a featherweight main event Saturday night on ESPN+. So who

Devin Haney recently teased an October return to the ring, and we’ve now got some specifics. Dan Rafael reports that his contractually mandated rematch with George Kambosos Jr is targeted for Oct. 15 U.S. time (so Oct. 16 in Australia) at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Stadium, home of the Australian Open. ESPN has also said the

Floyd Mayweather just had a chat with Fight Hype about all the ongoing talk surrounding a potential fight between Ryan Garcia and Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis. Here Floyd makes it clear that he’s open to making that fight before the year is out but that it’s not a fight that will be taking place at 140

The theme this week seems to be “get on with it.” The WBO has once again ordered middleweight champion Demetrius Andrade to defend his title against interim champion Janibek Alimkhanuly, giving the pair 30 days to come to terms. Andrade (31-0, 19 KO) first got these marching orders in November after running over Jason Quigley

Welterweight titleholder Terence Crawford sat down for an interview with Kieran Mulvaney and Eric Raskin for Showtime Sports to discuss what things are looking like for him at this point in his career, and assess some big fights out there for him. While the boxing world awaits confirmation on what would be an undisputed welterweight

Today marked the opening press event for Adrien Broner’s next fight against Omar Figueroa on August 20, and it was a short appearance for Broner who didn’t stay long after expressing some of his displeasure. Most of Broner’s criticism was in the direction of Al Haymon and Stephen Espinoza for not putting together a bigger

Some fresh new rulings emerged from the decaying, excrement-caked stoma we call the WBA today. Up at 160, Gennadiy Golovkin has been ordered to face “world” champion Erislandy Lara within 120 days of his September clash with Canelo Alvarez if he intends to stay at middleweight. Down at 126, Leo Santa Cruz has 24 hours

Badou Jack will be right back at it following his May 21st stoppage of Hany Atiyo in Abu Dhabi. Jack has spent recent time taking on low level fights on Floyd Mayweather’s exhibition circuit, but here will be fighting on the August 20 undercard of Oleksandr Usyk vs Anthony Joshua 2 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Showtime’s July 30th card in Brooklyn, headlined by Danny Garcia vs Jose Benavidez, will feature a televised opener between Gary Antuanne Russell and Rances Barthelemy. Today Russell spoke about his preparations for the bout and how he’ll look to carry on his momentum from a win over Viktor Postol to this fight, considering Barthelemy a

Following his sixth round knockout of Javier Fortuna, lightweight Ryan Garcia appeared at the post-fight press conference to discuss the win, and more importantly some of the big fights he’s intent on making going forward. It’s no secret that Garcia has been calling out Gervonta Davis, but says he’s got another big name on his

Rankings go up on Mondays. No update next week. There is just not near enough meat on the bone for an entire post next week. Honestly, there’s not really enough of consequence for two weeks from now, either, but I don’t want to go three. So we’ll do one in two weeks, next one comes

FOX Sports (AUS), 5:00 am ET, Sam Goodman vs Juan Miguel Elorde. You may remember Elorde from one of Emanuel Navarrete’s great, old school world title defenses in 2019. He got trucked in four. He’s fought once since then, last October, and now tries to derail 23-year-old Aussie 122 lb prospect Goodman on the road

Find out why professionals are using BoxBandz Ryan Garcia powered through a test against Javier Fortuna tonight on DAZN, but the biggest takeaway is probably that Garcia says he will not fight at 135 lbs again — this fight was at a full 140 — which would seem to be yet another issue in making a

Ryan Garcia and Gervonta Davis have talked, and talked, and talked — for a couple of years now. Mostly Garcia, but Davis, too, let’s be fair. And we all know that Garcia has spent much of 2022 calling for a fight with Davis by the end of the year. His promoter, Oscar De La Hoya,
