Trainer / former four-division world champion Roy Jones Jr. says this Saturday’s fight will tell fans a lot about IBF welterweight champ Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis’s ability when he takes on WBA champ Eimantas Stanionis in a unification fight on April 12th at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
Highly ranked junior middleweight contender Serhii Bohachuk(25-2, 24 KOs) will face Mykal Fox (28-4, 5 KOs) on May 17th. Bohachuk is ranked #1 WBC at 154 and is positioned to challenge for a world title against champion Sebastian Fundora.
Abdullah Mason (18-0, 16 KOs) proved to be too much for his super featherweight replacement opponent Carlos Ornelas (28-5, 15 kOs), stopping him in the sixth round in lightweight action scheduled for ten rounds on Saturday night in a Top Rank-promoted event at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas.
Filip Hrgovic (18-1, 14 KOs) needed a second wind to come on strong down the stretch to defeat the motivated Joe ‘The Juggernaut’ Joyce (16-4, 15 KOs) by a 10-round unanimous decision in a heavyweight contest at the Co-Op Live Arena in Manchester, England.
2020 Olympic gold medalist Andy Cruz is pushing hard to Keyshawn Davis and Abdullah Mason to fight him. #1 WBC-ranked lightweight contender Cruz (5-0, 2 KOs) has adopted a villain-like persona, no longer staying quiet and waiting for the big fights to fall from the sky.
Richard Torrez Jr. (12-0, 11 KOs) and Guido Vianello (17-1, 14 KOs) looked in excellent shape on Friday, weighing in for their 10-round bout on Saturday, April 5th at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas.
David Benavidez says Canelo Alvarez doesn’t mention his name because he’s the “most dangerous fighter. Alvarez would rather fight the smaller Terence Crawford and William Scull than face Benavidez (30-0, 24 KOs).
Mikey Garcia says Canelo Alvarez is going to make $400 million soon and double his net worth as he heads into his May 3rd undisputed super middleweight championship bout against William Scull in Riyadh, and then Terence Crawford in September.
Trainer Mickey Bey disagrees with Terence Crawford, believing that former unified three-belt welterweight champion Errol Spence does deserve to be in the Hall of Fame if he retires now from the sport.
WBO welterweight champion Brian Norman Jr. (27-0, 21 KOs) is ready for a unification fight against IBF champ Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis after crushing Derrieck Cuevas (27-2, 19 KOs) in the third round last Saturday night in a Top Rank-promoted card on March 29th at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
