Foreign hello, boxing fans around the world.
Thank you for joining me once again here on talk and fight for another episode of boxing news headlines and a shocking.
The world is yet another story out of Britain concerning banned substances and in fact, Amir Khan has now been banned from boxing for two years and all other sports by the way following an anti-doping violation, although he said I have never cheated in my life, I hate To say this to you, but but you cheated, so let’s have a quick read of the story here.
Uh Amir Khan has been given a two-year ban from All Sports after he tested positive for a band substance following his fight with Kell Brook last year, but has denied any wrongdoing.
Does that sound familiar a along the lines of Connor Brandt, Connor, Branham, UK anti-doping, said at Khan 36 years old returned a positive result for the anabolic agent ostereen after losing the brook in Manchester.
On February 19, 2022 Khan, who announced his retirement in May last year, accepted a violation of anti-doping rules, but said he had not intentionally ingested the substance, an argument accepted by an independent panel following a hearing in January, however, the authorities said Mr Khan’s to your ban.
Is deemed to have commenced on April 6 2022? That was the date of his provisional, suspense and suspension, which was imposed and it will expire on April 5th 2024.
When asked about the verdict on Sky News, Khan was defiant replying, I have never cheated, I’m a retired fighter.
You can see by my performance against Cal Brook that it wasn’t the best.
I lost the fight.
If I went in there and knocked Kel Brooke out, it is different.
I’Ve never cheated my life, I’m the one who wanted the testing done.
The amount that was in my system could have come from shaking people’s hands.
I don’t know what the drug was in.
My system I’ll give it my views, but, like I say, I’ve never cheated my life.
I would never cheat I’m a retired fighter.
I’Ve got this two-year ban now, which is quite strange.
I’Ve already tried anyway, no comeback plans at all.
That’S our lead story.
We’Re not going to bounce to uh Auntie Joshua, who continues to dominate the headlines, in particular the UK headlines, but I believe the story comes out of the U.
S coming to us via boxing news24.
com Jeffrey chani.
He asks a question.
Can auntie and Joshua become a three-time heavyweight champion this past weekend, former two-time unified heavyweight champ Auntie Joshua had his first bout since losing back-to-back fights against Alexander yusik.
His opponent was Jermaine Franklin, as we all know, and many observers were expecting AJ to make a big statement and score a highlight real knockout to get his career back on track, but that didn’t happen.
Instead, AJ seemed content to box and work behind his job and the other 12 rounds.
Joshua was awarded a unanimous decision where two judges scored at 117 111 and the other had it 118 111.
.
Once Upon a Time, Anthony Joshua was viewed as one of the very best and most talented, if not the very best and most talented heavyweights competing in the game.
Auntie Joshua was a unified, ibf, wbaw heavyweight champ and he held notable victories against the likes of Dylan white, Joseph Parker, Alexander povetkin, and also his career, defining when to date, when he stopped long reigning, champ uh Vladimir Klitschko AJ’s run, came to a shocking and abrupt End when he was stopped by Andy Ruiz Jr, but Joshua avenge that lost and immediate rematch to reclaim his unified Crown after making a successful titled defense against kubrapulev Joshua suffered another major career setback when he lost his unified championship against the extremely talented former Undisputed cruiserweight World champion Alexander yusic Joshua had the opportunity to become a three-time heavyweight champion when he got his rematch again she’s sick, but use it once again proved to be too skilled, too smart and too slick for AJ going into the Franklin bout AJ had lost three of His previous five and many observers were expecting him to make a big statement with a highlight real knockout.
That did not happen following the fight.
Many observers are being very critical of Joshua’s performance with some going so far to say that he has finished as an elite level prize fighter.
So all things considered can Auntie Joshua still become a three-time heavyweight champ.
Well, if you take, if you, if you’re following rummy’s Corner they’re, going to attempt to answer that very question, while also providing a quick recap and review of last weekend’s heavyweight contest between Joshua and Franklin, so uh rummy’s corner by the way is produced and narrated by That very same author, Jeffrey Shawnee, all right.
Let’S move along to another interesting fight, Prospect, um this story coming courtesy of Dan Ambrose.
Also writing for boxing news24.
com, Dimitri bibel looks like he will be pure trouble for Canelo Alvarez in the rematch in September.
Unless the Mexican Star makes huge improvements in his game before then in training footage of the unbeaten WBA light heavyweight, champ Bibble 210.
He can throw sustained combinations while moving forward and backing up without stopping his shots.
You don’t see a lot of fighters in the sport that can continue their combinations while backing up in one sustained flow without halting their shots.
Canal hints that he plans to use volume punching to win the bevall rematch, which will be difficult for him to do.
Without being a stationary Target, and even though so, the trainer for Canelo says they’ll be using a lot of counter punching against Biffle, that’s been canelo’s bread and butter during his career, but bevel showed in his first fight that he was Adept at blocking those punches on His arms and then firing back Bibles footwork was terrific right now uh and how with how he moves forward backward and side to side while firing off rapid combination, shops, shots, a double and triple left hook.
He throws and I will give Canelo massive problems in September.
If this fight happens for Canelo, this means that if he attempts to attack Bibble, while he’s retreating he’ll get hit repeatedly as he moves forward.
As most boxing fans know, canelo’s footwork is slow and cumbersome at best and he’s moving around the ring.
Hence he was dominated by Bill last May and soundly beaten by Floyd Mayweather back in gen back in 2013.
, so John Ryder will face Canelo, whose record is, by the way 58 2-2 30 39 knockouts for his Undisputed super middleweight Championship on May 6 in Guadalajara, Mexico.
This is a glorified tune-up fight for Canelo.
Everyone admits, but some boxing fans view it as a confidence builder for the Superstar.
After the bad year he had in 2022 losing to Bible and almost getting beaten by a faded 40 year old, Triple G Gennady, Golovkin um and on that same uh name.
Dan Ambrose is writing.
On boxnews24.
com promoter, Eddie Hearn uh says a fight between WBA WBA light heavyweight, champ, Dimitri Bibble and Jaime monjia is in the works for June 10th in a clash that would take place at 175 when G is 26 and he would be a tune-up for uh Beville To prepare him for his rematch with Canelo Alvarez in September, Canelo is taking a warm-up for his own, as I just said, facing John Ryder on May 6 in Guadalajara, and you can argue that Mangia is the far tougher opponent than writer because he can punch and He has a high work rate that could make it interesting against pivotal when that’s why manjia who’s 41-0 by the way 33 knockout, it’s a middleweight, is being considered for Bible’s next fight.
Hearn said that mongia’s management wanted the fight, indeed manjis promoters, Oscar De La Hoya and Fernando Beltran both said recently that they’re interested in Bible as an opponent for the unbeaten Jaime last year, munjia vote that Jimmy Kelly at Super middleweight weighing in at 165.
.
So he certainly got the size to take on Bibble 21-0 at 175 for the his WBA light heavyweight belt.
So we’ll see what happens in the back rooms.
The welterweight division by the way is on the verge of witnessing a historic clash between two of its Undisputed Champions: Errol Spence, Jr and Terence Crawford.
The fight which has been in the works for years is reportedly finally set to happen on June 17th in Las Vegas, and this is according to Ring magazine, Spencer holds the wbawbc and ibf titles is widely regarded as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world.
The Southpaw from Texas has a perfect record 28-0 with 22 Knockouts and has defeated notable opponents such as Sean Porter, Danny Garcia and Mikey Garcia.
Crawford who owns, who owns the WBO title is also considered one of the elite fighters in the sport.
The switch hitter from Nebraska has a Flawless record of 39-0, with 30 of those wins coming by knockout and as unified titles in three weight classes.
He has beaten top names such as Emir Khan, previously spoken of Kell Brook previously spoken of and Jeff Horn uh.
The fight between Spencer and Crawford has been highly anticipated by fans and media alike, including guys that talk and fight as it would determine the best welterweight in the world and possibly the best fighter in any division.
However, the fight has faced several obstacles over the years.
Such as Promotional and network differences, Financial disputes and injuries, A source told Anson Wainwright of ringtv.
com that the fight is now close to being finalized.
After months of negotiations between both camps, The Source also said that an official announcement is expected to come during the javonta Davis versus Ryan, Garcia fight on April 22nd.
And if that fight does happen, it’ll be a rare occasion when all four major belts in a weight class are on the line.
It will also be a chance for both fighters to cement their legacy as one of the greatest of the generation and perhaps of all time, so there you have it fight fans more boxing news, if you fit to print hello, Carl, how you doing that con and Uh, it’s Carl responding to the women’s Boxing Channel it piped in here.
