Posted on 10/03/2021 By: Sean Crose And in a week, it will all be over. Deontay Wilder, former WBC heavyweight champion of the world, will have proven his previous battle, a 2020 shellacking at the gloved fists of one Tyson Fury, was a one-off…or he won’t have. It’s really that simple. Indeed, it will be

Posted on 10/03/2021 By: Hans Themistode The prevailing thought process in boxing circles is that Devin Haney, Teofimo Lopez, Ryan Garcia, Gervonta “Tank” Davis, and Shakur Stevenson are future stars in the sport of boxing. Those sentiments are something that Bill Haney, Devin Haney’s father, agrees with. Unsurprisingly, Bill believes that his son is the
Posted on 09/29/2021 By: Hans Themistode An epiphany of sorts has just swept over Ryan Garcia. After taking a long, hard look at his fellow peers, the 23-year-old lightweight contender has come to one conclusion. “I will become the best boxer of this era,” said Garcia on his social media page. “I will call it
Posted on 10/02/2021 By: Sean Crose Say it ain’t so! Canelo Alvarez, perhaps the most popular and serious minded practitioner in all of boxing appears to be willing to some day face social media star turned boxer Jake Paul – maybe. “We don’t know,” he told FightHype, “you can never say never.” Before every serious
Posted on 10/01/2021 By: Sean Crose Anyone paying attention to the Olympic Boxing scandal now rocking the sport’s world can tell that the sport of amateur boxing is in trouble – and has been for a long time. Yet there are those who are quite unhappy with professional boxing, as well. Fight cancellations, Twitter feuds,
Posted on 10/01/2021 By: Hans Themistode A Canelo Alvarez win has essentially become a formality in the eyes of Timothy Bradley. The former two-division champion turned ESPN commentator will certainly tune in on November 6th, when Alvarez takes on IBF super middleweight champion, Caleb Plant. Although Bradley respects the 29-year-old wholeheartedly, he simply doesn’t see
Posted on 10/01/2021 By: Sean Crose “He lost to an amazing fighter,” former supermiddleweight titlist Carl Froch told iFL TV after witnessing Oleksandr Usyk’s impressive win over heavyweight multi-titlist Anthony Joshua last weekend, “probably one of the best southpaws operators of all time.” While there’s few if any who are willing to argue that Usyk
Posted on 09/30/2021 By: Hans Themistode Canelo Alvarez has an unquestioned disdain for IBF super middleweight titleholder Caleb Plant. Although the two are scheduled to meet on November 6th, at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada with the chance to become the division’s first undisputed champion, the pair couldn’t wait until their fight date
Posted on 09/30/2021 By: Hans Themistode Andy Ruiz Jr. may have added to his win column recently, but he endured a far more difficult time than he was expecting. The former unified heavyweight champion ended his year and a half layoff just a few months ago on May 1st, against Chris Arreola at the Dignity
Posted on 09/30/2021 By: Hans Themistode Jake Paul isn’t just making his mark in the boxing world by stepping into the ring. He’s now doing so on the business end of things as well. Earlier this year, the social media star and Nakisha Bidarian, Paul’s advisor, founded Most Valuable Promotions. With their first big move,
Posted on 09/29/2021 By: Hector Franco “Bernard Hopkins has put himself up there in the list of all the great middleweights.”- Larry Merchant. Throughout the social media age that includes platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, there has been a plethora of memorable moments in combat sports from the world of boxing and mixed martial
Find out why professionals are using BoxBandz Posted on 09/29/2021 By: Sean Crose Frankly, it lasted longer than anyone probably could have imagined. It seems like ages ago that Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather finally answered the bell and battled a full twelve rounds (Mayweather, for those who don’t know, was awarded the decision win). That
Posted on 09/29/2021 By: Hans Themistode Terence Crawford believes it. Those in his circle believe it. And his never-ending supporters believe it as well. Yet, not everyone shares that same mindset. In the opinion of the WBO welterweight titlist, he is far and away the best fighter in the division. However, with the likes of
Posted on 09/29/2021 By: Hans Themistode For nearly three decades, Manny Pacquiao calmly entered the ring, and more times than not, he gave fans their money’s worth. Yet, like all good things in life, it comes to an end. With a Presidential run in his native land of the Philippines now in his immediate future,
Posted on 09/28/2021 By: Sean Crose Because boxing simply isn’t ridiculous enough at times, former pound for pound great and Golden Boy Promotions honcho Oscar De La Hoya is engaged in a Twitter war with outspoken UFC honcho Dana White: “Hey @alexvolkanovski you just won a brutal battle for @ufc and made 1/20 of what
Posted on 09/28/2021 By: Hans Themistode Cha-Ching was all Mike Tyson could hear. The former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world was extremely hopeful that a showdown between himself and long-time rival Evander Holyfield could come to fruition. Having shared the ring with one another on two occasions, the pair have generated an excess of
Posted on 09/27/2021 By: Sean Crose I remember hearing repeatedly that heavyweights of the past, no matter how great or dominant, simply could not hold up against today’s supersized heavies. I recall wondering if the theory of bigger means better was actually true when the supersized, and very skilled, heavyweight champ Wladimir Klitschko battled Bryant
Posted on 09/27/2021 By: Hans Themistode Caleb Plant is sitting alone on an island. But he doesn’t mind. With the majority of the boxing public viewing the IBF super middleweight champion as a no-hoper in his contest against Canelo Alvarez on November 6th, Plant has decided to tune out the noise.
