This will also be a great night of boxing because it’s also going to feature hannah rankin and that terry harper, as well as other fighters, it can take place at the point arena in nottingham.
As i said saturday september 24th, uh on that zone, excluding australia and new zealand for some reason, wood who’s 26 and two with 60 knockouts memorably stopped michael conlen in the 12th and final round of his epic first defense of the wba 26 pound title back in March, knocking the irishman out of the ring in brutal fashion to end their fight of the year battle leaf, though, who was heavily dropped in the opening round and looked to be heading toward his third loss in the pros before brilliantly fighting back to earn a sunny Win that will be talked about for many years to come after a fight with wba super champion leo santa cruz, failed to transpire in a heavily gutsy move would have chosen to prove himself against one of the most bearded knockout artists in the world of boxing lyra.
Twenty four two and one seventy knockouts floored and ruthlessly finished josh warrington.

.
As i said, terry harper, twelve one on one six knockouts leaps up and wait to challenge scotland’s hannah rankin.
It’S gon na be a good fight, hannah rankin’s, twelve five and twelve and five with three knockouts for her ibo and wpa super welterweight world titles, an intriguing england, vs scotland clash.
Surely to be a good one.
Former ibo and wbc super featherweight world champ terry harper lost her titles at the hands of the usa’s alisha bomb partner on the undercard of galahad vs martinez last year, before landing, the wba intercontinental lightweight title against yamila abellanida in march, rankin captured gold by decisioning maria Land lindbergh over 10 rounds at taunton, oxford football club, banqueting hall back in november 2021, before defending her belts against mexico’s alejandra aiea at the soc hydro in glasgow in may good stuff, um.

As i said, september 24th and that’s uh, uh also available on design speaking of uh british fighters, highly uh respected and talked to it.
The long awaited wba world title final eliminator clash between huey, fury and us rival.
Michael hunter now has a new date and room.
The two are set to face off at the resorts world arena in birmingham on saturday october 29th, with the winner emerging as next contender to challenge the wba heavyweight title held by daniel dubois, fury 26-3 with 15 knockouts ranked number four in the wba has been gunning For a second shot of heavyweight gold ever since his september 2017 challenge for wbo world title ended in a points defeat by joseph parker.
Now age, 27, fury managed by mick hennessey has steadily honed his skills in the interim and is now ready to take his second round at world title contention.
In october last year, his most recent outing.
He was on blistering formers, of course, forced a rugged christian hammer to retire on his stool.
After just five rounds.
Now fury has taken on very tough tests in the form of michael hunter, who has a reputation as one of the most avoided fighters in the division and who has not yet reached his potential.
I take the fights everyone avoids said.
Fury michael hunter has fought the best and is up there with the best.
These are the fights i want to show who is the best fighter out there? I’M looking forward to this challenge, i believe i’m one of the best fighters in the world, and this is another big fight to prove.
I stand with the top three in the world: heavyweight division, wa number two ranked hunters 21 and two with 14 knockouts has been swerved by many of the big names in the division and is targeting his first world heavyweight title shot after points loss to alexander yousick.
Back in 2017 for the wbo world, cruiserweight title underrepresented america in the london 2012 olympics and turned pro shortly thereafter, starting out in the cruiserweight ranks and quickly, bringing together an undefeated run before running into alexander usic in 2017 and suffering his first defeat.
Currently, however, he’s riding a seven fight win streak hunter caused a huge upset on his last visit to the uk, stopping the unbeaten martin coley in the tenth round of a thrilling fight, the referee being forced to intervene when macaulay was defenseless under a flurry of heavy Blows so says: ben shalom, boxer, founder and ceo, we’re excited to make our first visit to birmingham for a fight which has everything on the line.
Hugh fury has patiently built his way back to world title contention and has overcome big obstacles along the way.
This is another huge test for him against one of the most avoided fighters in the division.
We look forward final story of the day.
Quick short one uh former undisputed lightweight champ typhoma lopez, has confirmed.
