Juan Francisco Estrada defending his lineal/TBRB, Ring, WBC world super flyweight championship against former WBC 115 and unified 112 world titilst Jesse "Bam" Rodriguez.
Potential fight of the year candidate.
Rodriguez is quickly amassing a very impressive resume. First Carlos Cuadras, then Srisaket Sor Rungvisai, then Sunny Edwards, now El Gallo up next. He won't fight his mentor Chocolatito so maybe he can unify with Ioka next. Ioka beat his brother once and got a draw with him once so there's an easy storyline there, provided Ioka comes through his own unification with Martinez next week.

Undercard post, but Nico Ali Walsh survived the last round with a blatantly dislocated shoulder that Akale somehow didn’t notice. Clearly showed the letters lack of awareness.
Bam Rodriguez is truly a special fighter and we're watching him at the very beginning of his prime.
Carlos Cuadras.
Srisaket Sor Rungvisai.
Sunny Edwards.
Juan Francisco Estrada.
Just slaughtering legends every time out. Go get Kazuto Ioka or Pedro Guevara next.

Teofimo Lopez won about as dominant of a decision as possible without scoring a knockdown, but clearly had not expected as much of a fight from Claggett as he got. Props to the Canadian vet, he was outclassed but made the most of his title shot.
But the highlight was Ramirez’s borderline perfect fight against Benitez, with a big uppercut knockout as an exclamation point.

That has been the case for years.
People only act like they care now because he's suspended and they can't profit from associating with him for several months.

Holy shit, Foster absolutely robbed by a split decision where he basically won every round except one, maybe two, versus Conceicao.
That should disqualify all three judges from future title bouts.

Terence Crawford returning against Israil Madrimov at the BMO Stadium in LA, California August 3rd - the undercard is excellent. Tickets are still on sale and will be shown on the Espn plus ppv and/or Dazn ppv channels in America. Time to plan that fight party sports fans. (That reminds me I better hide those Jaffa Cakes) hehehe.
Another excellent win for Crawford, but he didn't blow Madrimov out of the water. I had it 116-112 Crawford; official cards came back 116-112, 115-113, 115-113 Crawford. Madrimov had excellent footwork and he was quite awkward, which allowed him to land several straight rights on Crawford. But Crawford's skill and handspeed were the difference for me.
I don't think it would be wise for Crawford to jump up to 168 at this point, though. He should try to become undisputed at 154. Get the Fundora/Spence winner next, as that will be a WBA/WBC/WBO unification fight.

W vs #3 Ricky Burns UD 12 (fmr. WBO 130; reigning WBO 135; future WBA 140)

The Floyd Mayweather Jr.-John Gotti III exhibition rematch didn't have any excessive trash talk or a brawl like their original clash last year.
It was just a self-proclaimed "The Best Ever" in Mayweather serving up a boxing clinic over eight two-minute rounds to put this surprise rivalry to bed Saturday night and coast handily at the Arena CDMX in Mexico City, and live on DAZN.
The 47-year-old boxing legend did what he wanted in the ring from establishing the jab to piecing together combinations, touching the body and eluding Gotti III's shots, while flashing smiles along the way.
"We had to put on a show for the people. I want to thank Gotti for being a man of his word," Mayweather said live on DAZN, while the two men embraced, seemingly burying any lingering bad blood.
Inoue beats Doheny by TKO. Doheny injured his sciatic nerve in the fight, but Inoue was starting to put it on him and a stoppage was imminent either way.
Bob Arum has indicated that the likely plan for Inoue is:
#4 Sam Goodman in Tokyo in December
#1 Murodjon Akhmadaliev in Las Vegas in April
#1 at 118 Junto Nakatani moving up to fight him back in Tokyo later in 2025
And if he wins those, featherweight is next.

Big mistake by AJ picking a fight against a dummy like Nganno last time. No way he can come back now from a loss like that at his age.

ajs time is done should just chase the wilder fight for whatever money they can make with it now .. or chase fury fight if fury loses to usyk. i mean neither fight will make what it was once worth but both fights would still bring in millions even if all 3 are shot

Daniel Dubois KO Anthony Joshua was WILD/CRAZY/AMAZING/EPIC/FIRE (Made my Day/Night/Week/Month/Year) Dubois will make a colossal amount of money for the rematch.
Anyway this weekend (October 12th in Saudi) we have Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol and Fabio Wardley vs Frazer Clarke 2 plus Eubank Jr, Ben Whittaker, Jai Opetaia and Skye Nicolson so check out the platforms like dazn and espn who will be showing this event. Check the time difference most importantly.
Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk 2 has been annouced for December 21st in Saudi.
Also, Tyson Fury is on the front cover of that new Undisputed boxing game.

Bivol's great but this win still won't put him in the top 3 with Inoue, Usyk and Crawford. All three of those guys have a much more impressive resume than Bivol.

Tyson doesn't expect Paul fight to go distance
Mike Tyson said that if Jake Paul doesn't run from him, 'you can expect a Round 1 knockout' when the two face off Nov. 15.
Tyson (50-6, 44 KOs) will face Jake Paul (10-1, 7 KOs) on Nov. 15 in his first professional boxing match in nearly two decades and doesn't expect the fight to go the distance -- as long as "The Problem Child" doesn't run from him.
"If I don't have to catch him, you can expect a Round 1 knockout," Tyson said at a news conference to announce his collaboration with LF*GO! energy pouches. "But I may have to catch him because I anticipate this guy running from me."
