Hello boxing fans around the world.
Thank you for joining me once again here on talk and fight for another episode of boxing news today and we’ve just got a few short stories to rip through, but uh they’re juicy, as always starting off with the now bad boy of the boxing world, uh teofi Mo Lopez who says he refuses to apologize for saying he wants to kill WBO light welt weight, champ Josh Taylor.
This is according to Robert Seagal, who’s writing boxingnews24.
com.
According to tiafomo 18 and 113 Knockouts people wanting him to apologize is an example of how boxing is getting soft.
Yeah right point out point that out to uh Mike at uh Knuckle Up, who has his knockout of the week show award anyway points out that he almost died in his fight against George cambosa’s Jr, and if that had happened, there would have been a tell Ben 10 10 Bells thing, but then he would have been quickly forgotten in teo’s.
Mind dying is part of the sport and it happens as a result, he’s not going to apologize for saying he wants to kill Josh Taylor, 19-0 13 Knockouts by the way, some city famous little bit as as comments as thoughtless, While others view it as a cheap Attempt to attract interest in his fight with Taylor on Saturday at Madison Square Garden in New York that, quite frankly, is going somewhat unnoticed.
Quite frankly, up until this week there hasn’t been a huge Buzz about the Taylor, two female fight, partly due to lack a huge promotional push, but also because of the fighters themselves.
The former unified lightweight champ, Tio, fomo, sorry Tio Fimo, who likes to embellish his credentials by calling himself a former Undisputed, hasn’t done a lot of interviews until this week, so perhaps to make up for the invisibility.
Tio Fimo is going overboard with his comments.
He said.
Well, trained and well thought up about his plan that we have in mind.
I feel like the young takeover of 2018.
He said we figured out a problem.
That’S been giving me issues with my coach ever since then my sparings look phenomenal in these rounds of training.
Getting hit less, I’m looking like the person that I need to look like on June 10th.
I use that as fuel people forget that I nearly died.
So it takes a little bit to gather that back up.
He beats regi’s progress.
He beats Ivan burn check, he’s beaten, a lot of top fighters Jose Ramirez.
He went and collected all those bells to become Undisputed, so you’ve got two guys four Undisputed fighting each other, the best against the best and that’s what boxing’s all about.
He holds a Ring magazine that identifies the champion Champions and that’s what we’re fighting for in this fight in this fight here, in my eyes, known as beaten, Josh Taylor he’s still technically Undisputed, but people will say what they’re going to say.
People still try to dispute.
My Undisputed, it’s still a goal to become Undisputed, but it’s hard.
A lot of these Fighters talk a good game on the internet, but in real life they don’t do it with the performance I’m going to put on against Josh Taylor.
It’S going to cause a lot of Fighters not wanting to face me even the champions beating, Josh Taylor.
It makes me the Kingpin of 140.
It will make me look, we will make it look easy because we’re on a different level.
I’M ready now give it to me now.
Oh, my goodness, does it go on? Oh, it goes on uh.
I had it 9-3 Loma when he’s uh studying film talking about uh the Taylor fight.
He said Devin didn’t do enough, said Tio Fimo.
When asked about his thoughts on Devin Haney versus lomachenko, I had it 9-3 Loma Loma was dictating the fight from the second round.
On people have got to look at these fights without the commentator.
Devin was looking like looking at his dad like help me, I don’t know what to do.
He’S figured me out they’re trying to have him Haney.
Look like Floyd Mayweather 2.
0.
Don’T look at your daddy to help you because he’s not going to help you people going off the tank and Ryan fighting like that? Was the big deal it truly wasn’t.
I think tank knew he was already going to beat Brian because Ryan’s looking at and excited for the female so and trying to be social media.
He did that.
Oh, my gosh uh, okay, let’s move on now, teofilmo just cracks me up old time.
Boxing returns this Saturday night as well, uh as Granite chin promotions, presents Fight Night at the Vets Club in Bridgewater veterans Club in Bridgewater Massachusetts and we’ll get to my take on the bridgerweight slash water under the bridge division in a moment, headlining the event down in Massachusetts is a six round Main Event between New England Rivals uh Julian black dragon and Ryan Clark of Berwick for the vacant United States, boxing Federation middleweight Championship a celebrated amateur boxer who was 2020 USA boxing uh Olympic boxing team alternate as well as 2020 USA boxing Elite, National and multiple New England Golden Gloves, champ bucks, Boston, lightweight, arika, scoop he’s want to know, faces Sarah switchkick click wow out of Orlando Florida.
It is six round bout of women, fantastic stuff, former New England, welterweight champ, Mike badman Ohan Jr, who we’ve talked about here on talking fight a lot 17-2 by the way out of Holbrook Massachusetts is a stay busy fighter and he’s facing Alaskan, William Paris Smith.
In an eight-round match, unbeaten Lynn super weight.
Sorry super middleweight, uh James Pitbull, Perkins 1101, by the way, a Gravedigger from Lynn, Massachusetts, uh Tangles with Texas, veteran Larry, slomo Smith, 1352 and two in a six round match uh popular heavyweight.
Kevin Nagel want to know, throws down with Ronaldo Souza 0-1 in a four round match in the opener.
So that’s a that’s some good news, uh out of granite chin out of Massachusetts, and we look forward to seeing those results next week, Lawrence of Coley.
Now a lot of people whenever I mention the bridge await uh division.
On my show I get a ton of comments about.
Do we need a bridge away division, so I I changed the name based on this Bridgewater fight uh, to uh, to my time anyway.
Bridgewater.
It’S water under the bridge, but Lawrence of Coley is now making a move into the new Bridger weight division, which would be welcomed by the world boxing Council.
Of course it would because they need type.
The WBC created the weight class at 224 pounds and believes it has many virtues, despite the fact that is not recognized by any other world.
Sanctioning body Coley lost his WBO cruiserweight World title in a while fighting with Chris billum Smith, and if you moved up the bridge, wait he’d be ranked and get himself in the frame for a shot at the WBC Title there.
Okay, so it sounds like a bit of shenanigans to me, but anyway, uh WBC, president Mauricio Suleiman, said uh.
Absolutely that’s one of the virtues of the new division.
Just like Evander Holyfield, a cruise weight, then he grew into heavyweight Bridge.
Await is another possibility for cruiserweights to grow into Bridger and eventually heavyweight.
He argues that this new division could be root towards an eventual title fight at heavyweight without having to give up 50 pounds, 60 pounds and initial move to heavyweight Zoom instead remember every bridge.
What every Bridgewater fight every Bridger weight fighter is also accepted as a contender at heavyweight.
So it is a division that has many virtues enough said: says: grumpy.
Graham, the WBA championships committee have approved WBA super bantamweight, champ Marlon, the police, to unify his belt against the July 25th, winner of the niana ayanui and Steph Stephen Fulton fight.
They also ordered former champ mirror John akamandialev who’s facing tomiko kamida to meet in a final Eliminator to determine the division’s mandatory Challenger to Paul is, if you recall, dethroned ahmadeliev last April, 8th to win the crown in a controversial and close fight.
Matchroom boxing made a direct rematch request to the WBA, and although there are elements that could support it, it is not feasible to do so at this time, the new champion and his team as the WBA for permission to fight the winner of Inuit and Fulton, the Bout would be unification of the WBA IVF, WBC and WBO titles, which is a powerful reason to allow it for the sake of boxing ahmadeliev will now fight kamita.
As I said, who won a semi-final Eliminator against young fres parade Joe and the winner of this fight? Will be the next opponent of whoever wins between the palace and inui Fulton on a date to be determined later so there you have it fight fans all the news fit to print today, thanks for joining me here on talk and fight appreciate, it remember to like Share subscribe hit that notification Bell we’ll see you later on at 4 P.
