So it has happened again. Tyson Fury is on the wrong end of the injury stick once again after seeing his mega domestic bout with David Haye cancelled twice and his slightly less mega domestic bout with Derek Chisora cancelled this week due to a hand injury to the rejuvenated Del Boy. Chisora is enjoying a bit of resurgence since being knocked out by David Haye. He has looked in very good shape recently and won 5 fights on the …

Guillermo Rigondeaux smashed pound for pound superstar Nonito Donaire over a year ago now and his career has simply stalled. Major networks don’t want to touch him with a barge pole and Bob Arum was pretty disparaging about him despite promoting the guy. Poor Rigo. The guy is so talented it is costing him. After struggling to get a decent bout for a year he took on Joseph Agbeko and snoozed to a 12 round victory. It seemed to get worse. …

15th October 2011, Liverpool England, Tony Bellew vs Nathan Cleverly. Cleverly boxes a little neater and comes away with a thin decision victory. Bellew cries, Cleverly celebrates. When they rematch later this year it will have been three years since they first took each other on in a tense and tight affair that saw Cleverly eke out a close decision to give Bellew his first defeat and reclaim the WBO light-heavyweight title. On that night there was little to split …

Wow. What a weekend. No, not Germany winning the world cup! How about a split decision in the super fight of the weekend and ageing star being knocked out in 3 rounds and a British weekend of boxing that saw two stars almost fight each other for a second time outside of the ring. Okay, let’s take a breather. It should be worth noting that good old Mauricio Herrera, who didn’t get the nod against Danny Garcia back in March, …

So this weekend the best 154 pound fighters take on each other in the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. It is hard to make out any kind of clear favourite for the fight where Lara is seen as the superior fighter in terms of skill whereas Canelo has improved with each fight and is seen as being the more powerful and physical. Frankly I think this fight comes down to Erislandy Lara being a bit overrated and …

Shawn Porter and Kell Brook will fight for Porter’s welterweight title on August 16 and it will be the fight of the year. Porter and Brook had always threatened to make a name for themselves at welterweight for a few years but they struggled to get the big fights. Brook had trouble securing a bout with Devon Alexander for a long time and Porter was the one who took on Alexander back in December last year. Porter was dominant and …
