One time has in fact fought once since his 2019 launch demand lost to Manny Pacquiao dominating Mario Barrios in February of 2022, assuming both went into the ring at or near top form.
It should be a well-matched bout with a lot of action.
Potential yoga says low, finishing rate, belies a genuine mean streak and Thurman, though far from the destroy of your still pack, some pop to go along with his craft and we’ll.
Let you know if this one gets over the Finish Line.

com reports that promoter Ben Shalom of boxer is standing firm, that light heavyweights, Joshua bowatsi and Dan Aziz will collide in a WBA World title Eliminator uh it was reported last month.
The bowatsi and Aziz would face each other in a high-stakes fight.
In the fall but rival promoter, Eddie Hearn of matchroom later stated he would.
He was advised that Aziz was a free agent and the result was trying to get him in the ring with WBA champ, Dimitri Bibble Shalom would quickly respond to hearn’s statements by making it clear that Aziz was under contract with boxer.
He now indicates that buazi and Aziz have agreed to fight Shalom said both Fighters have agreed to fight each other.
It’S flattering when other pomonas are talking about your Fighters, but danaziz is, with boxer, he’s one of our proudest achievements, finding the fighters that don’t necessarily get those opportunities.
The fact we’ve gone just just about British level and come through the English Commonwealth and now he’s even being talked about at a World level.
It’S an incredible journey.
The bowati fight is one they both agreed to.
It’S definitely one that happens this year, which British boxing fans are hugely excited about and according to Shalom, there have been no approaches from matchroom to make a fight between bival and Aziz.
He says he’s willing to entertain an offer, but explains that nobody’s reached out.
As of yet, let’s fly around the world to Japan, where we see that the world boxing organization’s fifth, Frank Asia, Pacific super bantamweight, TJ, johani, the horny, sorry of Ireland battered the Japanese Champion Kazuki nakajime of the Oshi books, Boxing Club into submission in the fourth round To rest, the title on the June 29th tilt that was held in Tokyo and in other news out of Japan.
We see that veteran akenta nakagawa of masako boxing gym earned a 12-round unanimous decision over fifth ranked Challenger Joe shiraishai of the shishai boxing gym to retain his WBO Asia.
Pacific superflyweight title for the first time, nams held back on July 1st, also in Tokyo, and they were fighting at uh korokian Hall and the 37 year old nakagawi, occasionally landed well times straight left and right hooks to the Head from his southbound style.
While moving side to side to avoid shirashi’s forward, move so good for him, I’m with the victory nakagawa improved his record to 24 wins, including 12 Knockouts against four losses on a draw for his part, shirashi fell to 11-1-1 and has six Knockouts to his record.
Finally, I want to bring you up to speed with respect to a link I provided provided Down Below in the show’s description.
A fight took place featuring esquive, the 2012 Olympic silver medalist escriva falcawa, he’s 30 and 1 20 Knockouts doesn’t feel he got a fair Shake against vincenzhou Kateri who’s now 2101, with seven Knockouts in their Clash for the vacant.
Ibf middleweight title that was held in rupertai in Germany most recently last weekend.
I think the fight was unfair.
To me.
Falco said I thought I fought for the world belt in my opponent’s house.
It’S not in his country, it’s in his house in his City and the judges are all German.
Oh there was an Italian, and that is where the boy is from he’s from Italy.
He is an Italian, but he lives in Germany.
So the fight was for was all for him to win.
Co continues.
I was knocked down in the second round.
The punch landed, I took it, but then I received two very strong blows below the belt and the referee.
Vincent dupas did nothing not to mention the blows that I received on the back of the head and the shoulder on the chin.
I believe the referees are to protect both athletes, not just defend the home athlete or the promoter who organizes the event.
I leave here sad, but knowing that I did my part, I didn’t have to fight just one athlete I had to fight one athlete the referee, judging but that’s life, and that my friends concludes.
