I don’t know [ Music ] boxing fans around the world, thanks for joining me once again here on talk and fight for another episode of boxing news today and today it looks like we’ve got some headlines out of Ireland.
I don’t know where you are in the world or what time it is in the day for you, but at the moment it’s uh St Patrick’s day.
So, let’s start off with a couple of Stories on behalf of our friends in Ireland.
Uh someone who’s transplanted himself to America and is uh being coached by Freddie Roach uh, Callum Walsh proved himself in the ring with another impressive performance uh.
On St Patrick’s Day, Eve, Dana White’s latest Irish project looked very much at home in the spotlight, as he defeated Wesley Tucker in his first fight on the East Coast.
Although the American was a replacement for Leonardo Ruiz uh, the he came into the fight with 15 wins and nine Knockouts to his name and was deemed to step up for an early day, 22 year old, not to mention the cork light.
Middleweight hopeful had to deal with the step up and the pressure of topping a UFC Fight Pass broadcast bill at the 6 000 person capacity again Arena.
The LA based monster man took both in his stride, embracing the support and attention and taking Tucker to school.
On the University of Boston grounds, as I said, the Freddie Roach trained Irish fighter dominated from start to finish breaking Tucker down without breaking a sweat to register a fifth career stoppage.
Tucker uh, however, looked solid on capable, if much smaller from the uh from the office.
Trying to land counter rights in the first half of Stan, but, however, the American was soon forced into a shell.
As the assured and authoritative native landed, a perfect timed uppercut to the midriff, uh and Walsh began to move through the gears somewhat and without breaking sweat.
Picked his shots around a tight guard, a left-hand sent Tucker to the floor early in the second and it led to a one-way round.
That was the last of the 10 round fight and he is now six and oh congratulations Callum another headline out of Ireland.
Uh courtesy of I suppose, Katie Taylor and her big bash coming up on May 20th.
The headline reads: Kate radomska closes on matchroom Starlet and an Irish English Clash.
There could be more than one intriguing, Ireland versus England.
Women’S fight at the three Arena on May 20th says this: article Kate, radomska three in one and mizey Rose Courtney, wan na know of their way.
Irishboxing.
Com understands the pair have been in touch and agreed to fight each other.
Now, that’s all left to do is convince Eddie Hearn, although rumor suggests the matchmakers at matchroom like the fight and see it as ideal for the massive Katie Taylor homecoming card.
If it was to be made, it would join Main Event, Taylor versus Chantel Cameron and Dennis Hogan versus JJ Metcalfe on the list of Ireland, vs England boats on the that at the Zone broadcast uh, Dublin docklands hosted card madamska, who rumor also has on the verge Of a European title fight was initially linked to a historic boat with Christina O’Hara McCafferty, The Waterford flyweight and Belfast minimum weight have been heavily linked in recent times.
Indeed, they have both mentioned each other and discussed a possible Irish or Bui Celtic title fight.
If it was to be made for a title and the pair were to trade leather for either the boxing univ iron straps, it would prove a first ever Irish, female title fight and, as a result, a fight that would reflect Taylor’s Legacy on a night.
She further cements it.
However, it’s believed that Delsey poll is closing in on a fight with the matchroom novice to Londoner out pointed experience, Hungarian Judith hubbock when she debuted at Wembley Arena back in October tonight, uh the 22 year old takes on abukra alcazee uh, the game Spaniard, who has A habit of drawing with prospects on the next gen uh card over Newcastle, and I don’t have a result on that by the way uh anyway kickboxing convert radamska, is scheduled to fight on April, 8th on the Waterford ring Kings card a 32 year old lost a Close fight with the always gay men bigger at Gemma ruic last time out and we’re looking to get back to winning ways, have her hand raised at the WT Arena and lean learning on the job, entertainment uh.
The Entity just finds herself on the historic Taylor homecoming card against a high profile match room Starlet moving along speaking of Eddie Hearn.
My Pal Charles Brown, over at boxing news24.
com has this to say.
Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn saw red on Thursday in response to Golden Boy.
Ceo Oscar De La Hoya dumping on him for matching Canelo Alvarez against John.
The gorilla Rider, instead of the tough opposition uh in an interview De La Hoya, stated that he has a problem with Hearn matching his former Flagship fighter, Canelo against all these British fighters, who were little more than hors d’oeuvres for the Mexican Star, rather than the main Course, meal against the talent like David benavidez De La Hoya, says Canelo Is Now regressing by fighting the 34 year old rider, who has a whole bunch of losses and has been beaten by three of the superstars former victims.
Some would argue: Canelo is desperate for a win wanting to keep up his career above the water line after his Dreadful performances last year against an old washed up, Gennady Golovkin and Dimitri bival.
The fight showed clearly that Canelo can no longer hang with the best and would be food for talents like benavidez Dave, Morel, bival and Arthur Peter BF, with her being from the UK.
He not surprisingly views that right as a great choice for Canelo as the gorilla is a household name over there, and the British fans are arguably more tolerant of Fighters that are beaten many times than U.
S fans.
An example is Ritz still craving to watch the old journeyman Derek to Zora, a simple ham and Egger heavyweight, with 13 losses on his resume, a guy that many losses wouldn’t make in on U.
S television for a main event, it’s not happening.
He has to take this fight if he wants to maintain his belts, said Eddie Hearn to fight Hub TV, explaining why he’s matching Alvarez against John Ryder rather than Fighters that fans want him to see fighting Billy so Billy Joe Saunders unification, Caleb plant, an Undisputed fight And Dimitri bivalhern, continued Oscar De La Hoya said they’re stupid taking that bill fight.
That’S such a tough fight, they’re idiots, but all of a sudden he’s taking easy fights.
I think he needs uh to look at some of his own matchmaking, particularly Gilberto Ramirez this weekend, and particularly Jaime munguia, which has been absolutely horrific when people speak with emotion and anger, they ignore the facts, said Hearn, who is clearly speaking with anger and ignoring the Facts that he’s been matching Canelo against a lot of weaker opponents like Ryder Billie, Joe Saunders, Rocky fielding and Calum Smith.
Instead of the Mexican monster David benavidez, there you go sports fans.
Charles Brown also had this to say regarding the Tyson Fury fight against Alexander yusik, and it came courtesy of Lawrence of Coley akoli says the ibf wbaw heavyweight champ use USIC will pop Tyson Fury’s Miss section with left hands and move around to win at points decision Over him on April 29th, if their Undisputed fight takes place in a large ring at the Wembley Stadium in London um, you know a Coley States.
The idea, sorry that uh, the WBC champ Fury uh won’t want won’t want a large ring for the fight and he’ll.
Be able to trap music and lay on him.
The size of the Ring will likely have have been negotiated in Fury’s favor, because he’ll use his a side position uh to get as small ring as possible to prevent usick from using movement to make him an eight to make an ape out of him.
It won’t be surprising if the ring resembles a phone booth on the night says Brun with the ropes nice and loose for Fury’s benefit usick who’s.
20-0 13 Knockouts will ignore the head completely of the six foot knife Fury and focus on hitting to hitting him to his flabby midsection, which is the perfect Target for punches.
As many fighters have discovered.
Trying to hit Fury to the head is near impossible because he moves it a lot and leans backwards, making it challenging to connect cleanly unless one is standing right on top of him.
The belly is there, though, and inviting an inviting Target for smart heavyweights like music to attack at will with his bunches.
You sick, has already said: he’ll hit Fury in his belly every time.
Strangely Fury’s past opponents lack the ring IQ to attack his body 100 of the time.
Instead, focusing on headhunting even Vladimir Klitschko focus on trying to hit Fury in the head, and it was surprising because he should have made adjustments after the first couple rounds to go downstairs once he noticed that he was leaning backward with his upper body over the ropes.
Looking like an ostrich burying its head in the sand, what Fury can’t protect is his over large belly, which is loaded with fat Fury.
Has the body of a truck driver at no amount of training in the next six weeks will burn that flab off by April 29th rolls around holy? If, if you were smart, you would have been begun.
His training camp in December, like you, sick, but he didn’t he’s, been riding high off his stoppage win over 39 year old journeyman, Derek chisora last December on cloud, nine from that empty victory, Lawrence Nicole, he said I think Tyson Fury will win by points or by Light stoppage just by physically as long as they make it a small ring as well.
It’S not a big thing.
It’S not sorry! It’S not a big ring.
If I think in a big ring says a Coley usick will be able to dance and pop left hands to the body.
I don’t think he’ll go head.
Hunting at all he’ll just be popping to the body from round one to round 12 and just moving and trying not to get caught and try to get a pinched decision.
So I think a nice small ring Tyson gets old Owen and lay him in a bit pushing and pulling pulling him around makes it very difficult to get past the 11th with Tyson.
I think Tyson Fury wins that one Atlanta Coley he’s a very complicated man anyway for the last story of the day.
Let’S uh fly over to Montreal and go back to Canada, where there was a fight taking place at the plaza Bell Arena, which was shown on ESPN, plus uh, presented by Lou de bella, and in that fight we not only saw Canadian just Camaro lose to a Very spirited Mexican fighter who absolutely clobbered Chimera, but we also saw a 40 year old, former wa uh World on WBC Silverlight, heavyweight, champ, John Pascal looking his age and losing to the ibf Intercontinental Champion, Michael eifert, in an ibf Eliminator.
In this main event, as I said, Jean Pascal who’s, 36 7-1 20 Knockouts um, originally out of Haiti fighting out of Laval Quebec, he lost the Intercontinental eifert who’s.
Now 12-1, fighting out of Germany in their world title Eliminator um super much discussion about the the fight, but in the 12th and Final Round the crowd started chanting for Pascal who looked like he needed a knockout.
He rallied in the final minute, uh Landing eifert Landing.
Uh outlanding eifert to the Delight of the crowd uh referee Martin Forrest had an easy night with a few clinches scores were 118 110, 115 113 and 117 111.
uh, with this writer uh scoring at 160 and 112, and this writer being Ken heisner out of boxing News24.
Com uh: let’s have a quick look here: uh other battles, um Matthew, Jermain out of Quebec, also won a close decision over Steve Wilcox fighting out of Hamilton Ontario over 10 rounds for the vacant.
Ibf InterContinental super light title and, let’s see if they had the Camaros.
Yes, they do super like Jessica, the Cobra kameric, now 10-4 out of Montreal was stopped by Carla Zamora, 10 901 uh fighting out of Mexico in the fourth round uh.
In that fourth round, a barrage of punches from Zamora had Kamara in trouble and not fighting back and calling a halt to the fight was referee, uh, Forest um.
Elsewhere.
On that card we saw light heavy 2016 Olympian Joseph Mighty Ward 9-1 out of Ireland uh.
He stopped uh Mario Rodriguez 701 at a Yucatan Mexico in the first round of their eight rounder and another women’s uh competition super Bantam, Caroline Vier, 2-0 out of Paris, France, uh and Montreal Canada defeated feather champ uh, also out of France and the AL angerville.
Five.
Two and one um over uh six rounds.
It looks like in the first three rounds, veyer had an edge and two of them in the four through six rounds, though agriville finally took a round and six and and the referees um Martin Forrest, and that one Bantam Amanda golly also fought uh.
Someone who we’ve covered off to non-talk and fight um, she defeated Lorena, coyote, karus out of Mexico City, Mexico uh in their eight uh eight round battle.
Let’S have a quick read here in the first three rounds, golly had a slight Edge uh, with both throwing over uh overhand rights for the most part in the fourth round, crew suffered an injury to her right shoulder and got a minute to recover in the fourth And fifth rounds Cruz did recover well enough to take the rounds out Landing Galley in the seventh round.
However, Cali decided to use her jab take the round in the eighth and Final Round Galley and quite a few left hooks to the China cruise and might have pulled out the win um and might have pulled out the win.
I thought she did win.
Um scores are 797, 3, 80, 72 twice um welterweight Southpaw, yoel, angeloni, 2-0 uh start uh Alexander calixto, in Mexico, out of Mexico on in the second round out of their four rounder.
So there you go a big fight night over in Montreal Canada good to see some Canadians in action, so I’m winning some, unfortunately losing but good to see Canadians back in the ring uh over in Quebec, and we look forward to seeing more action out of Ontario Uh Canada’s biggest province uh and then upcoming battle coming uh your way VIA Buxton promotions, uh in Pickering, thanks very much for joining appreciate it remember to like share subscribe, hit that notification Bell and I’ll see you later on 4pm.
