Hello boxing fans around the world time to join me once again here on talk and fight for another episode of boxing news today, courtesy of our friends across the pond at boxing247.
com and we’ve got a banger coming up this weekend, featuring savannah marshall and clarissa shields as Well, as michaela mayer going toe to toe against alicia baumgartner and all four of these fighters have been going toe-to-toe in the media, since this fight has been announced also in the fight by the way, an all-female card, i might add, uh you’re, going to see lauren Price karis, arden stall, caroline dubois april hunter, george o’connor and ebony no ebony jones to name a few but uh.
What i want to mention right off the hop here: uh a couple of quotes, courtesy of uh, savannah marshall and clarissa shields, who were touring down the river thames on a boat in front of the media.
Saying this anyway, let’s start off with savannah marshall, who said she’s had a lot to say about me, but it doesn’t bother me it doesn’t get under my skin.
I don’t care what she thinks about anything she’s, not one of my friends or family.
So her opinion doesn’t mean anything at all to me, we’ll do our talking in the ring on saturday night, i’m going to take her into deep water and drown her in the thames for her part, clarissa shields responded and said.
I’Ve always said that women’s boxing can sell and that’s and that i was the one it’s nearly sold out.
There will be nearly 20 000 fans in the o2 arena and i’ve been training.
My butt off, i want all the smoke and when i leave the ring on saturday night, savannah marshall will be silenced and i will be the undisputed middleweight champion of the world.
So there you go.
There are a few tickets remaining for those fans over there.
In the uk – and that indeed looks to be one heck of a great fight and indeed a landmark fight for female fighters across the world.
Speaking of landmark fights, let’s see, what’s going to happen with tyson fury, auntie joshua, alexander otto, wallen, etc.
The heavyweights, who all seem to be jostling for position in this respect, boxing promoter, dimitri salida, got a salida promotions.
I believe, out of detroit, says it’s the wrong time for british foes to be facing off and says auntie joshua needs to take care of other business.
First, following his defeat to alexander yusick selita, said it’s an interesting fight between joshua and fury, for example, auntie joshua got better in the second fight against usyk, but he’s still coming off a loss.
You know who the favorite is in that fight between joshua and fury and who isn’t? I think if that fight happens in december, it’s not going to be as big as it could be, and i really don’t believe it can happen in december because that’s a huge fight and it deserves a bigger, build up for fury joshua to be as big as It could be joshua needs to put together some significant wins and improvements.
The public wants big fights where some think this guy is going to win or that guy’s going to win at this point, even though it’s a good performance against usic, i don’t think there’s anyone who thinks joshua has any chance to beat tyson fury.
He continues.
I believe otto wallen versus joshua makes a lot of sense from what eddie, hearn and joshua said.
Joshua wants to be considered an elite, a plus heavyweight and otto is an 8 plus heavyweight.
If joshua comes back and fights a john doe with no credentials without a decent record and no real name, then he’s going back down to a very average level, in my opinion, just finding an opponent with gloves on with a professional record without any real accomplishment.
I don’t know if it does anything for him.
It may decrease his value depending on who the opponent is there, aren’t any there aren’t many fighters in the heavyweight division? That makes sense? Would he fight louise ortiz or andy ruiz? Probably not? Who else is out there? The boxing world is so splintered with promoters and broadcasters.
Otto is a free agent and that’s why it makes sense to me looking at the heavyweight division.
It is so splintered and divided, with top fighters being aligned with different broadcasters.
There’S only a few fighters that make sense.
There are only a few guys available who the boxing fans would buy into and say he’s legitimate fight for joshua otto versus joshua has all those ingredients.
The winner of that fight becomes a legit world title contender.
Well, there you go: let’s move along here to uh speaking of uh good fighters, flyweight world champion marlon esparza 1301, a texas-born former olympian, has resigned a multi-year multi-fight promotional deal with golden boy promotions.
Esparza was golden boy’s.
First, ever female boxer signed to the company back in 2016 and she launched her professional career under the banner in 2016, 2017 to ultimately become wbc, wba and ring magazine.
Female flyweight world champion esparza sits at the top of the flyweight rankings and will be looking to break into other weight.
Divisions, says esparza in the cutthroat business of boxing loyalty has proven itself to be rewarding.
I’M super excited with my newly structured deal.
I’M with golden boy who i’ve been with since day, one i’m doing what i love with great compensation, and i have opportunities to become undisputed as a flyweight and unify in other weight divisions.
Thank you golden boy, all right.
Speaking of signing deals, it looks like sivan nathi non shingu signs a promotional deal with matchroom, not not shinga.
Sorry did i say not.
Shingu not shinga has signed a promotional deal with eddie hearn he’s 11 and oh by the way, nine knockouts and he’s uh the ibf light flyweight title holder, uh and fought in an epic fight of the year contender clash with hector flores in mexico.
This past saturday, night and edging out the mexican in a roller coaster battle fought at a relentless pace.
The south african floored flores in the second round with the right hand, but the mexican poured forward in response and a brilliant body attack uh in the fourth round.
The head clash in the fifth caused a lot because a big cut in the middle of flora’s head but did nothing to stop the ferocious pay set by the mexican and answer by the special one in a relentless first half of the fight.
The pace didn’t dim in the second half and a standing ovation for a sensational fight, followed the final bell and it was nashinga who had the belt place around his waist via split decision.
The 23 year old then put pen to paper with hearn and now turns his attention to a bright future, with the landscape from light flyweight to superfly weight as exciting.
As ever there you go.
Some news out of matchroom lester daniel is looking to strike a balance when he attempts to make it a hat-trick of pro-victories, some two and a half years since turning pro his third pro outing.
Uh comes when pcb promotions stage a show at the park in hotel.
In northampton uh this upcoming friday night that’d be tomorrow night september 9th.
He made his pro debut by the way back in 2020, uh piling on pressure uh to gianni onta, who threw in the fourth and final round of the groin injury.
Alan tuck hasn’t bought since uh danielle’s, already floored him and the third round his advertising retired.
At the end of the session, having been the wars, the left hand would not be back in actually another 28 months.
So, as you do the pandemic and return to outpoint callum idol on july 30th, there you go some news out of uh.

Kenya, before moving over to uk as a teenager, and although he didn’t set out as an amateur boxing until he’s an adult, his amateur run – yielded 15 wins from 14 contests.
How is that possible, but anyway, first, representing bedford, boxing club in town, where he still resides daniel going forward, has big plans.
He said i was good to be out last time and get some momentum going.
It was decent performance for me, but i could have done a bit better for the time that i had off.
I feel like i didn’t, feel off the pace, but i could have made it easier for myself at times it’s difficult when your opponent is not engaging.
