Foreign [ Music ] fight fans around the world.
Thank you for joining me once again for another episode of boxing news.
Today, let’s start off with a bit of news uh from England, we had a report come in sent to us directly from a fan of English.
Amateur Fighters, according to him over at the junior Euros 2023 stunning finals day performance lands, team, England, seven golds team England produced a critical display on the final day of the EU BC.
Junior European championships 2023 securing seven gold and one silver medal and that took place in Romania.
So congratulations to uh the youngsters who are boxing on behalf of Team England, alrighty.
Let’S move on to news of the day elsewhere, uh speaking of England, seems to Eddie Hearn.
Just can’t keep away from a microphone according to Adam Baskin, over at boxingnews24.
com Eddie reports that the fight between Regis progress and Devin Haney is virtually agreed for regis’s WBC light Welterweight Title, but he also warns that they’re running out of time to get the talks wrapped Up – and why might this be, you would ask Haney who’s 30-050 Knockouts recently petitioned the WBC to allow him to freeze his lightweight title, allowing him to bypass his mandatory Challenger Shakir Stevenson to go up to 140 to try and become a two Division World Champion by Defeating progress, who’s 29-1 by the way with 24 knockouts.
It’S believed that the WBC will grant Haney’s request.
However, if they choose not to it’s thought that Haney will then ask for the franchise tag which would allow him to avoid Shakur for as long as he desires, progress came close to losing his last fight in June against danielito zarrilla, just barely squeaking.
By with a 12 round split decision after getting dropped in round two and staggered in the third is generally the progress poor showing against zarilla is what piqued Haney’s interest like a wolf.
That’S my weaknesses in his prey.
Haney with his Keen Eye likely saw an Old Link fighter on his last legs, ready to pick off for an easy meal.
Wow alrighty, let’s move along to other Fighters, uh, specifically those being bragged about by Frank Warren um.
It could prove to be a pretty big if, but, if Daniel Dubois manages to catch defending wbaw, I WBO ibf heavyweight champ when he challenges him in Poland on August 26th, USIC won’t know what hit him.
This is.
According to Dubois promoter, Frank Warren Warren who’s been saying for some time how he feels the time is right for two blood to do.
It says he really does believe this guy will pull off the upset later this month, Warren again pointed out to the USIC Derek chazora fight the promoter, saying how there was nothing in that fight early on Warren also says: u62 wins over Auntie Joshua game over in Aj, who wasn’t firing like he was Warren, says he would not have put Dubois in a fight with yusik if he didn’t truly believe he would beat him.
I fancy him big time in the fight Warren said of the once beaten.
Dubois he’s young he’s strong.
Sometimes it’s your moment and I think it’s his moment.
I know that if he catches you sick, you, sick, won’t, know what’s hit him, can he cope with that power and it’s an interesting question.
Warren asks you use music as special as he is, does really only have those two wins over Joshua to his name but heavyweight with his more special performances with wings coming down at cruiserweight.
Aj did catch you sick with some shots more so in the second fight, but to the body we still don’t know how yusuke will handle it.
We have a huge power, packed heavyweight detonates him on the chin, but here’s that word again.
If, if do black, hats is music? What happens we’ll find out, or we won’t found that on August 26th in Poland, can yusic make Dubois miss all night or at least make him Miss with his Bombs all night? Or will Dynamite manage to blow up the defending heavyweight Champs chin? The closer we get to this fight, the more intriguing it becomes mm-hmm elsewhere.
We see that the WBO has denied Arnold Barbosa a request to fight to Fimo Lopez, the WBO championships committee as denied a request by the management of WBO number one rated Junior welterweight Arnold Barbosa, to be named mandatory challenge for the current champion.
Teo Fimo Lopez.
The committee ruled that burbosa’s request is premature, considering that there is no mandatory title defense to be discharged at this time.
No mandatory is due.
Uh Lopez is currently in a voluntary period and can defend the his title against any of the 15 world-rated contenders in the junior welterweight division.
Therefore, the issue is not right for intervention.
The committee also laid out numerous circumstances where a mandatory defense obligation may be extended or modified and strongly recommended that Barbosa keep active and compliant with WBO regulations of world championship contests.
Also, and a quick note here, boxing returns to arena coliseo for many decades.
The arena calicio in downtown Mexico city hosted high quality boxing events this week after an eight-year Hiatus boxing returns to the famed venue, former WBC Superfly white will champ.
Carlos cuantos will headline this historic card on Friday against an opponent to be named.
The event is being promoted by productiones, huaco, arvisio and now on to some um fun topics.
I suppose ebony Bridges is the headline today, Ed mini Bridges gets distracted by her own breasts during microphone blunder wow boxing champion ebony Bridges, apologized for being distracted by her own boobs in a podcast appearance where the blonde bombers microphone hitting them mid interview, an interview with Ebony Bridges was disrupted not once but twice by her boobs.
The blonde bomber regularly flaunts her assets on social media, where she boasts a rising Instagram following in excess of 750 000 people and at her boxing weigh-ins, where she leaves Eddie, Hearn, blushing, she’s, cashed in on them with her own subscription page, which has boosted their earnings.
When she’s on the ring, but they aren’t always a positive, they cause a distraction of multiplications.
When she appeared on the no context sport podcast, it was uh barely a minute in when the first Interruption came, her microphone had fallen down and landed on her chest.
We’Re by Bridges exclaimed: oh that’s on my boobs, oh my God, something getting in the way um.
The monk was laughed off in the studio with the two of the co-host, not quite sure where to look and having regained their composure.
It happened again.
A few minutes later, as Bridges moved her hand, she accidentally hit the mic stand and it fell to the same place again, causing the cover to spin around out of position.
Laughter broke out again with Bridges.
Joking next time try and catch before it lands on my tits this time they threw her off the wrong game.
Oh sorry, all right, moving on to more serious stuff, yet interesting stuff in a lighthearted way.
Also Clarissa Shields starts camp for Keith Thurman fight, but he’s called out, as we all know, Terence Crawford, so Clarissa Shields has revealed that she has started camp for a potential fight with Keith Thurman uh, and she stated that she would out-box Thurman as it appeared.
He was up for a charity.
Bout and shields is taken up to Twitter to give her fans an update.
She said Camp started for at Keith Urban Jr activated.
Let’S go I’m gon na get in the gym with Shakur Stevenson to help me prepare.
But, as we know, Thurman has called out Terence Crawford for a showdown uh, as has been reported on social media.
Yada yada um by the way posted a record of 31 and was last in action of February of last year and, as I reported I think, last last week, he’s got a bit of ring rust for sure.
Meanwhile, Crawford put on a masterful display, as we know on the weekend, to stop Errol Spence Jr in round number nine of their highly anticipated bout.
So we’ll see what happens on that front depending on whether Crawford accepts a challenge or not or whether we’ll see a an entertaining charity boat between Clarissa Shields and Keith Thurman more in women’s news, as we all know, um according to kneel the deal last night as A reported on that talk and fight you’re, going to see a fight between Jake, Paul and Nate, Diaz and uh.
There has been quite a bit of discussion regarding this fight, but it’s not looking like it’s living up to expectations, as boxing fans might have expected.
However, Amanda Serrano who’s fighting on the undercard has vowed to her fans that a rematch with Katie Taylor will happen.
The two met in an epic encounter in April 2022 at Madison Square Garden with Taylor, winning a hotly a debate, Split Decision in what was the best women’s fight boxing has ever seen.
Probably, when you talk when you take everything into account, Taylor and Serrano then agreed to a rematch for May of this year, but Serrano withdrew in late February, due with injury and Taylor.
Instead, moved up to 140 to fight Undisputed champ, Chantal Cameron losing the May 20th bout, Serrano says the Taylor rematch will get done.
I was out with friends in Puerto Rico, watching Spence versus Crawford and all I heard was when’s the Katie Taylor rematch, my team.
At most, valuable promotions will be working on that we both have a fight scheduled, but I promise it will happen.
What Puerto Rico asks? Puerto Rico gets Savannah by the way is 44 2 and 1 with 30 Knockouts and will defend their Undisputed featherweight championship.
This coming Saturday night against Heather Hardy, as I said, on the undercard of the Jake Paul Nate Diaz fight anywhere, the general expectation is that Serrano will handily as she did when they first met.
In 2019, Taylor is at 22-1, six Knockouts expected to rematch Chantal Cameron, whether it’s at 135, where Katie is still Undisputed Champion or 140 remains a question and the fight hasn’t been officially announced.
Yet Cameron, however, has said she’s open to moving down and taking more titles.
Serrano had previously said in may, just after Taylor lost to Cameron that a second loss to Chantal would kill a Taylor Serrano rematch.
I don’t think it’s a good fight.
Our rematch is definitely off the table.
If two, if Taylor loses again, she said I don’t know what Katie’s uh going to want to do after that, if she’s going to retire – or I don’t know, I know my career is going to continue – obviously surrounds out to the shifted and it truly could be As simple as seeing how much her fans do want to see her try and even the score of Taylor, regardless what happens in a potential Cameron, Taylor rematch? But let’s first of all see what happens this upcoming weekend.
I believe it’s August 6th when it does happen.
Uh when she takes on Heather Hardy, which will be a good fight by the way, speaking of Jake, Paul and Nate Diaz and as I reported yesterday, pay-per-view numbers are not making positive news.
The headline screams on an MMA site, Nick Diaz, isn’t worried about pay-per-view or ticket sales for Jake Paul fight.
He says: don’t watch the problem.
Child has accused Diaz of being a for avoiding confrontation in the lead up to their boxing bout on August 5th um, and it’s interesting that a lot of people said that might have been the issue with respect to Spence and Crawford only drawing 700 000 on pay-per-view.
As opposed to the 1.
2 million uh, where we saw tank Davis take on Ryan Garcia anyway, so low numbers on the pay-per-view front.
But it does not bother Jake Paul at all, we’re less than one week away from the Nate Diaz fight against Jake, Paul inside American Airlines Center in Dallas uh, or at least we thought it would be highly anticipated.
A good point.
Ticket sales for the event have been sluggish, says this reporter and there’s some concern that Paul’s target audience will illegally stream The Zone Pay-Per-View fight rather than pay for it no surprise there and Diaz doesn’t care at one way or another.
Indeed, Paul has been critical of the younger Diaz brother, saying he’d, hoped Nate would do more to Hype up and promote the fight, which certainly makes sense, and it is something that Bob Aaron had said quite a while ago, maybe last year about his own fighter.
At that time, Terence Crawford anyway Diaz said that’s his problem.
I don’t really, I think my my I think my fighting promotes it as it is uh.
I promote my fights, I’m I’m gon na get this a little.
I’M not going to get into a little kid argument with the guy and act like we’re any realer than it is.
I don’t get uh no realer than this anyway.
I’Ve never heard of the word.
Realer but anyway, I don’t need to act like kids, I don’t talk a bunch of like he wants to.
I want to stay and talk, I don’t want to stay and talk and go back and forth.
He continued.
He said something about me at the press conference and I’m like.
I wasn’t there for no argument.
I don’t even want to go to the press conference to argue with nobody like if we’re gon na argue we’re gon na fight.
So, let’s just stay the away from each other until the fight part of my language, so we expect things to heat up during the fight week.
That would be this week when Diaz and Paul are both in Texas and the problem.
Child turns up the YouTube personality.
Hijinks and will Diaz react to any of that.
He said I’m ready for anything, I’m ready to go to war right now, I’m ready to be cool until the time to fight.
I don’t care I’m at a point in my career, where I’m not trying to scare anybody, I’m not trying to fool anybody.
If people want to watch I’d be great if they don’t that’s fine too.
That’S where he’s got me Twisted, I’m not in this gimmick fight with him.
I only need to know that I’ll whip his ass.
I don’t need the whole world.
I don’t need to be begging to what I don’t care.
Don’T watch the boxing Community certainly isn’t giving Dia as much of a chance of beating Paul they’ve, pointed to sparring footage and stories from recent sparring partners.
As proof Diaz doesn’t have the boxing chops to hang in the ring, with a younger, bigger opponent, Diaz Shrugged off the doubters and even laughed about spark Partners talking about his skills.
It comes with the territory, he said.
I know boxing dudes and boxing gyms are kind of ignorant to things a lot of box whatever I hope someone says, I’m tough, I’m good, I’m good in shape.
I’M not I’m not good.
You know what I’m saying, but I’m in just in better shape than ever.
Boxer that I’ve ever sparred hey it comes with the territory okay, so it’s all good whoo wan na interview that must have been all right.
Boxing fans appreciate it thanks for joining me.
