MOST VALUABLE PROMOTIONS’ YOUNG PHENOM H2O SYLVE WINS THE WBC YOUTH WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP OVER ESTIVAN FALCAO AT MOST VALUABLE PROSPECTS V

Press Release: By DAZN And Most Valuable Promotions-  ORLANDO, FL – February 2, 2024 – Tonight, Most Valuable Promotions’ (MVP) 20-year old phenom H2O Sylve (11-0, 9 KOs) showed the world why he is the hottest prospect in boxing, winning the WBC Youth World Championship over Estivan “Tunny” Falcao (13-3, 7 KOs) by unanimous decision (100-89, 99-90 x2) in the headlining bout of Most Valuable Prospects V, presented by CELSIUS Live Fit. Essential Energy, live globally on DAZN. Sylve came out paying homage to the most famous H2O fan, The Waterboy, Bobby Boucher, and went a full 10 rounds for the first time in his career with a dominating performance over the more experienced Falcao. Falcao came out strong, but could not match the power and agility of Sylve who landed multiple impressive combinations, ultimately finishing a stunning quick combo with a powerful right cross that dropped Falcao late in the tenth round. Sylve, who recently became a father, celebrated in the ring with his family and newborn son. After the fight, an exhilarated Sylve spoke to Sibley Scoles in-ring sharing the discipline and hard work in camp that got him through ten rounds for the first time in his young career.

In the co-main event, Orestes “El Tsunami” Velazquez (8-1, 7 KOs) faced Julian “Quiet Storm” Smith (8-2, 5 KOs) for a highly-anticipated super lightweight WBA International Title  fight over ten rounds. Smith came into the fight with relentless vigor, knocking down Velazquez in the first round with a vicious left-right combo. What followed was a relentless display of combos from Smith, as Quiet Storm turned the Tsunami into a drizzle with three more knockdowns, including a pair in the ninth round. Throughout the last rounds, Smith displayed his energy and confidence, taunting Velazquez with a shimmy and flashing peek-a-boo between punches. Following Smith’s fourth knockdown of Velazquez, El Tsunami’s corner declared him unable to continue, leading to a TKO win for Smith. Smith, a deaf Chicago Golden Gloves champion and three-time Most Valuable Prospects fighter, put his all into the fight, and was overcome with emotion after the fight, falling to his knees in the ring when the decision was declared, becoming the newest WBA International champion. Following the fight, Smith thanked God, shared his hard work in camp, and encouraged others like him to take up boxing. “A deaf person CAN make it happen,” he declared, before sharing a touching moment with his mother in the ring as they celebrated his victory.

Ahead of Sylve vs. Falcao and Velazquez vs. Smith, Most Valuable Prospects V showcased two additional thrilling main card bouts between the lightweight undefeated Florida natives Benigno Aguilar (11-0-1, 4 KOs) and Corey Marksman (8-0-1, 6 KOs) and welterweight Maricela Cornejo (18-6, 7 KOs) took on Kandi Wyatt (11-6, 3 KOs).

Benigno “Tony” Aguilar (11-0-1, 4 KOs) again illustrated why he is a Most Valuable Prospects fan favorite, leveraging his relentless power over six rounds vs. Corey “2Smoove” Marksman (8-0-1, 6 KOs) in the unofficial “Battle for Florida.” The 24-year-old Crescent City native Aguilar proudly represented his Mexican heritage and showed off his explosive power in the ring, while Marksman matched the energy and met Aguilar’s challenge with aggression and power as the pair’s ferocious barrage of punches consistently brought the raucous crowd to its feet. Aguilar, promoted by boxing legend Christy Martin, and Marksman fittingly fought to a split draw (56-58, 58-56, 57-57). 

In a post-fight interview, Aguilar thanked the crowd for their support and wished his sister a happy birthday. He further expressed his appreciation for the Most Valuable Prospects platform, and claimed he is still the rightful King of Florida, noting his intent to run it back with Marksman to claim a win. Marksman agreed he and Aguilar should fight again, and asserted that he will be the King of Florida.

Mike Leanardi, Director of Boxing for Most Valuable Promotions, also took to the ring following the decision to announce a potential April 26, 2024 rematch for Aguilar and Marksman in order to decide the true King of Florida once and for all.

Opening the main card, Maricela “La Diva” Cornejo (18-6, 7 KOs) took on Kandi “Krush” Wyatt (11-6, 3 KOs) in an 8 round welterweight bout, with the two former title contenders each demonstrating their skill and power in the ring in a back and forth bout with Cornejo earning a unanimous decision win (79-73, 78-74 x2) over Wyatt. Cornejo fought for just the second time at welterweight following her last middleweight title fight against Claressa Shields in June of 2023, in which she took Shields the distance on short notice before a disappointing UD loss. After the bout, Cornejo reiterated her championship aspirations at welterweight and called out Jessica McCaskill and Natasha Jonas for her potential next fight.

In the headlining bout of the preliminary rounds, Dainier “The Fear” Pero (6-0, 4 KOs) went toe to toe with the more experienced Joe Jones (14-10, 10 KOs). The bout proved to be the battle of the heavyweights as the two powerhitters hammered at each other. Ultimately, Pero’s determination won out, earning the Cuba native and former Olympian a second-round TKO over Jones in another promising showing from the 24-year-old prospect. Jaz “Animal” Artiga (12-0-1, 5 KOs) came out swinging with a relentless flurry of punches, securing a dominating win by TKO over former two-time IBF world minimumweight champion Nancy “Chatita” Franco (19-19, 5 KOs) at just 1:19 in the first round, continuing the hard-hitting Tampa super flyweight’s win streak. Following the victory, Artiga spoke to ringside reporter Sibley Scoles to reiterate her intent to give Tampa a world championship title in 2024. 

Also on the preliminary card, super lightweight Jorge Carlos (6-0, 5 KOs) beat Quinterius “Madman” Chappell (3-1, 3 KOs) by unanimous decision (40-36 x3). The 18-year-old Alex “Alley Cat” Gueche (4-0, 4 KOs) returned to Most Valuable Prospects for a ferocious super flyweight onslaught vs. Osmar Rodriguez (5-3, 1 KO), earning Gueche his latest professional victory by third round TKO. The opening lightweight battle between Luis “Popeye” Lebron (20-5-1, 13 KOs) vs. Giovanni “Baby Face” Gutierrez (11-7-1, 6 KOs) ended with a TKO victory by Lebron in the second round.

RIYADH SEASON’S “RING OF FIRE”TO BE BROADCAST LIVE WORLDWIDE ON DAZN

Press Release: February 1, 2024 By DAZN -  Ring of Fire" (17 February 2024) tables Boxing’s two greatest heavyweight World Champions Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk to crown the division’s first undisputed champion since 1999.

History-making fight and undercard available globally on DAZN as pay-per-view, including in the UK and US.

Deal marks a strengthening in DAZN and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s long-term partnership.

 

LONDON, 1 February 2024 – The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s Riyadh Season and DAZN, the sports entertainment platform, today announce that “Ring of Fire” will be broadcast live on DAZN worldwide on 17 February.

 

"Ring of Fire” will see the biggest fight in boxing - WBC and Lineal Champion Tyson ‘The Gypsy King’ Fury vs WBO/IBF/WBA unified champion Oleksandr Usyk in a history-making showdown. The winner will become boxing’s first Undisputed Heavyweight Champion since Britain’s Lennox Lewis claimed that honour 24 years ago, in 1999, but this time four belts are on the line for the first time in history.

 

Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) has been the reigning Heavyweight Champion since November 2015. Taking a break from boxing due to personal challenges, Fury made an impressive comeback by defeating Deontay Wilder to claim the WBC world title in their rematch and sealing their trilogy with a knockout victory in 2021.

 

Ukraine’s Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs), an Olympic gold medallist, decided to move up from the Cruiserweight division to the Heavyweight division after establishing his dominance there. He caused an upset by defeating Anthony Joshua and becoming the Unified Heavyweight champion. Usyk successfully defended his titles against Joshua in a rematch. Now, he sets his sights on becoming only the second Cruiserweight Champion ever to achieve undisputed status in the heavyweight division.

 

“Ring of Fire” follows two incredible once-in-a-generation fight nights - “Battle of the Baddest” in October and “Day of Reckoning’ in December - which saw incredible numbers from around the world tune in on DAZN to watch history made.

 

HE Turki Alalshikh, Chairman of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority (GEA), said “Since our first Riyadh Season in 2019, the Season has developed a reputation for hosting the biggest events and they do not come much bigger than the undisputed heavyweight title fight. This is history in the making, a fight the world has waited for. Now it is a reality, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is excited to be hosting this era-defining fight. This will be a global spectacle and we will do everything to ensure that everyone has an experience that matches an event of this magnitude.”

 

Fury vs Usyk, ‘Ring of Fire’ will feature two further world championship fights at the Kingdom Arena, in Riyadh.

 

Sydney cruiserweight sensation Jai Opetaia will enter a rematch against the previous ruler of the division and champion of the World Boxing Super Series, Mairis Briedis (28-2, 20 KOs) for the IBF world title. The undefeated IBF Super Featherweight World Champion Joe Cordina (17-0, 9 KOs) will make a second defence of his title against when he takes on the IBO World Champion Anthony Cacace (21-1, 7KOs). Former light heavyweight king Sergey Kovalev (35-4-1, 29 KOs) will continue his run at cruiserweight by taking on the unbeaten Robin Sirwan Safar (16-0, 12 KOs) from Sweden. Also featuring is British heavyweight star of the future Moses Itauma (7-0, 5 KOs), the World Youth Amateur champion from 2022, along with cruiserweight and 2021 Olympian David Nyika (8-0, 7 KOs) from New Zealand.

 

George Warren CEO of Queensberry said: “The Undisputed Heavyweight Championship of the World represents the absolute pinnacle of the sport. The eyes of the world will be on Riyadh on February 17 when Tyson Fury takes on Oleksandr Usyk.”

 

Shay Segev, CEO of, DAZN said: “It is an honour for DAZN to have been chosen by Riyadh Season again as their global broadcast and distribution partner for “Ring of Fire”. DAZN is the undisputed home of boxing, and for this fight, we will be offering a free month’s subscription in the UK & US alongside any PPV purchase allowing fans to enjoy an unmatched catalogue of fights this spring. We share Riyadh Season’s ambitions and look forward to what we can achieve together.”

ANGELO LEO SPARKLES WITH KNOCKOUT WIN OVER MIKE PLANIA IN WNF MAIN-EVENT

Press Release: February 1, 2024 By ProBox TV - 

Credit: ProBox TV

Former super bantamweight world champion Angelo Leo needed just three rounds to finish Mike Plania in WNF’s main-event this evening in Plant City, Florida. The pair collided at featherweight in a ten round bout.

The opening minute drew little action from the first round. Plania took the center of the ring with Leo moving around the perimeter. Leo’s jab started to open up as the halfway point passed, throwing a combination to the body shortly after. Plania landed a good left hand in the final minute. The pair traded relatively evenly just ahead of the bell.

Leo hit Plania with a hook to the body at the start of round two. He missed by a large distance with an overhand right seconds later but landed a right to the body on the follow up. Leo was fainting to give Plania food for thought, slowing the fight down at this early stage to his rhythm. Leo ducked a combination from Plania after a minute with little else to report until Leo landed good body shots with less than 30 seconds on the clock. He landed another sharp combination to the head to close the round.

Leo appeared to make a breakthrough at the end of the second round. He landed a rapid combination to Plania’s body to open round three. There was a lot of caution from both men as they both held a high guard. Leo worked the body again after a minute, Plania responded with an uppercut that caught the glove. Leo planted his feet to land a much more intensive right to the body halfway through the round, followed by a left to the body and another right to the head. Leo landed a neck-snapping counterjab to approach the final minute. Plania responded with a good uppercut.

Leo worked his way inside to land a short-sharp left right combination to the head. Leo went after Plania with a right to the body, a left-right combination to the body quickly followed, sending Plania to the canvas holding his stomach at 0:36. However, to the disbelief of commentary team Paulie Malignaggi and Chris Algieri, the referee ruled the shot too low.

With Plania pinned to the canvas, the referee eventually called the fight off to give Leo the knockout victory due to a legal body shot. The ProBox TV replay showed a perfectly legal shot from Leo.

Leo picks up a second straight knockout victory on WNF, his record improving to 23-1 (11 KOs). Plania’s record moves to 29-4 (16 KOs), picking up a second career knockout loss in Florida.

Did Munguia Do Enough To Get Alvarez' Attention?

In the present day in the 168lb. Super-Middleweight division, every fight outside of those that are contested for a world championship, which in present context is the Undisputed Super-Middleweight championship of the world, held by Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, is essentially an audition for potential challengers to show why they should be the next challenger for Alvarez. When one also factors into the equation that Alvarez is also one of the biggest draws in the sport of Boxing, there is also plenty of financial incentive in addition to the chance to fight for an undisputed championship.

One such audition took place on January 27th when undefeated former WBO Jr. Middleweight world champion Jaime Munguia squared off with former two-time world title challenger and recent Alvarez opponent John Ryder in Phoenix, AZ. The story of this fight in the lead up was simple. One fighter was seeking an opportunity for what would be the biggest fight of his career due to the aforementioned elements, the other was seeking a potential second opportunity after putting forth a “Game” and determined effort against the champion. For Munguia, this fight also represented his first working with former contender of yesteryear and Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach.

Whether it can be attributed to Roach now being in Muguia’s corner, Munguia began this fight coming forward and putting pressure on Ryder. A reversal from his last bout against former world title challenger Sergiy Derevyanchenko where it was Derevyanchenko pressuring Muguia and pushing him back, this time it was Munguia, who was pushing his opponent back. What followed over nine rounds was a physical dissection where Munguia simply broke Ryder down.

Munguia did this largely by changing levels and finding a home for his right hand. It was the right hand that led to knockdowns in rounds two and four. While it appeared after the second knockdown that Munguia simply had too much punching power and hand speed for Ryder, to good credit Ryder did try to slow the ebb and flow of the combat, and did have some periodic success in landing his own right hand and hooks in the middle rounds. 

The story of the fight however, did not change, in that as “Game" as Ryder was and has been throughout her entire career, he simply could not find an answer to avoid the right hand of Munguia and the consistent attack to the head and body ultimately resulted in Munguia knocking him down for a third time with a flush overhand right in round nine. Although Ryder got up, it would not be long before he would be sent down for the fourth time as a result of a hook to the body. 

Ryder staggered to his feet, but his corner chose to throw the towel in to save him from further punishment, ending the fight and making Munguia the second fighter to stop Ryder in his career. Inevitably, there will now be comparisons to Alvarez, who scored a lopsided unanimous decision over Ryder in May of last year.

The one thing that Munguia can say is he did stop Ryder inside the distance and did so in impressive fashion. Whether or not that will result in him being among the next in line for Alvarez, who likely has a mandatory defense in his future of one of the championships that comprises the Undisputed Super-Middleweight championship, at minimum, this performance should be something to get Alvarez’ attention and a potential encounter between the two may be sooner than later providing that Alvarez is able to retain his crown in the meantime and Munguia is able to not only maintain his current position, but continue to move up the ladder towards that showdown.

Exclusive Interview: Barry Hearn

Press Release: January 27, 2024 By LuckyBlock.com- Jack Comerford of LuckyBlock.com recently sat down with legendary promoter Barry Hearn and discussed a variety of topics including current WBC Heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury and former two-time Heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua. Highlights of the interview can be seen below.

Matchroom missed out on Tyson Fury over £100k offer

Barry Hearn revealed that he turned down the chance to sign Tyson Fury to Matchroom when he was still an amateur boxer due to the financial demands made by the star’s father John. Fury went on to sign a deal with promoter Mick Hennessy in 2008 to begin his journey towards becoming the lineal heavyweight champion;

Barry Hearn: “I’ll let you in on a secret that not very many people know; I nearly signed Tyson Fury years before he turned professional. I was at a fight in Newcastle. Tyson – big lad, great name. That was my first reaction; big lad, great name. I could see money rolling in. John, his dad, said ‘my boy’s going to turn pro. He wants to sign with you. But we want a £100,000 signing fee.’ In those days, and this is going back a number of years, that was a lot of money. I mean, that was like Olympic champion stuff. This kid was untested, but obviously huge. 

“A few years later, of course, Eddie had the chance to sign him in Monte Carlo. That was when Tyson was going through a very sad time with his wife. I just don’t think Eddie believed that the transformation that Tyson eventually completed was possible. We’ve got it wrong. And you have to take your hat off to Tyson Fury. He turned his life around and he became the number one in the world. I don’t know how many people turned down the Beatles, but put us in that bracket.”

Anthony Joshua realises clock is ticking on his career

Anthony Joshua’s mega fight with Tyson Fury has plagued heavyweight boxing over the last decade, with AJ’s camp insisting Tyson is the problem. Hearn insists AJ taking other opportunities such as Ngannou is due to the knowledge that his career might not last too much longer;

Barry Hearn: “I think the easiest person in the world to involve in a fight is Anthony Joshua. He’s not a world champion at the moment, he’s a businessman as well as being a boxer. And he realises that the clock is ticking – he’s very keen to fight anyone and everyone as soon as possible. I’m a fight fan. I want to see him fight Tyson Fury, I want to see him fight Deontay Wilder. But the fans have to understand that we’re in the world of economics and big dollars. So our input is actually – I wouldn’t say it’s totally ignored – but largely ignored. There’s a much bigger picture.

“Fights of that stature are hundred-plus million dollar fights. The actual fan involvement is important, but the timing of it will be left inevitably to those people. Don’t forget we’re not talking about two boxers, we’re talking about two multi-millionaires fighting each other. Each of them has their own schedule, their own desires, their own ego.”

I’d pay to see Eddie Hearn on I’m A Celebrity 

Eddie Hearn has risen to fame over the past decade, amassing over 1.3million followers on Instagram in the process and Barry reckons his son is the perfect candidate to go into the jungle on I’m a Celeb, as he would be so far out of his comfort zone it would make for incredible viewing;

Barry Hearn: “I would pay money to get him on I’m a Celebrity because I would just get so much entertainment watching him mess it all up. I think we’d love it, everyone would love it. We have a great family experience. He’s a friend as well as a son. Our family takes the piss out of each other all the time, especially when something doesn’t go right. But he won’t have the time to go on I’m a Celebrity because of the way he’s working at the moment and we’ll be working like that for the next few years. It’s impossible.

“Eddie made a really good point the other day, and it wasn’t being big headed – probably misunderstood – where he said ‘if you ask a man in the street to name three people in boxing. They would name Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, and Eddie Hearn.’ That is a statement of where our boxers stand in public recognition, but also a credit to the work he’s put in and the profile he’s created for himself.”

Can Munguia Get A Shot At Alvarez By Beating Ryder?

The month of January 2024 in the sport of Boxing will come to a close on Saturday, January 27th with an intriguing battle in Boxing's 168lb. Super-Middleweight division. An encounter that some might label a “Crossroads Fight." This observer is referring to the fight between undefeated former WBO Jr. Middleweight world champion Jaime Munguia and former multi-time world title challenger John Ryder. A fight that will take place in Phoenix, AZ at the Footprint Center and csn be seen globally on digital subscription sports streaming network DAZN.

What makes this fight interesting is it features one fighter in Munguia, who after having a successful reign as a world champion in the Jr. Middleweight division, has remained unbesten, but has not been able to secure an opportunity to fight for another world championship in either the 160lb. Middleweight or now as a 168lb. Super-Middleweight. While some might argue that Munguia deserves the label as being an avoided fighter in and around what is at times referred to as a “Weight Neighborhood," he has remained not only undefeated, but also as a potential opponent for the current Undisputed world champion of the Super-Middleweight division, Saul “Canelo" Alvarez.

With the obvious aim of trying to secure a title shot against Alvarez, Munguia, who is undefeated in forty-two professional fights with thirty-three knockouts, will turn to a man who's most recent outing was against Alvarez. Yours truly is referring to John Ryder, who traveled to Mexico in May of last year where he put forth a very “Game" effort in losing a twelve round unanimous decision in a failed attempt to dethrone Alvarez. 

This presents an interesting scenario as this fight approaches that is somewhat of an unwritten approach that is implemented at times by fighters who are labeled as avoided by trying to face fighters that have faced their target opponent in an attempt to stir not only public opinion, but also said target into a potential encounter. While this approach is in some ways as old as the sport itself, the obvious danger to said approach is by establishing a common opponent between the fighter seeking opportunity and the target opposition, it also allows the fighter with the previous experience against the target opponrnt, in this case Alvarez, an opportunity to bounce back and thus try to themself secure another opportunity.

Such a scenario is often interesting because of several factors. The most obvious among them is the question of whether the result of the fighter looking for an opportunity with a target opponent against a fighter who fought that potential opponent will be any different or perhaps better should that fighter also defeat said opponent. In this case, Alvarez defeated John Ryder via a unanimous decision in a fight where, despite being dropped and suffering a beating over twelve rounds including a broken nose, Ryder was able to go the distance with the champion and even had some success in the latter stages of that fight. The fact that Alvarez though having retained his undisputed championship convincingly, could not stop Ryder inside the distance will obviously create the potential comparison with Munguia, a fighter that has a near 80% career knockout percentage.

While some were critical of Ryder getting that opportunity against Alvarez, despite being a mandatory challenger at the time, the determined effort he put forth in that fight endeared him to Boxing fans and even though some might view him as a sacrificial opponent for Munguia, Ryder is still one of the top fighters in the Super-Middleweight division and no doubt views this fight as an opportunity to catapult himself back into the discussion of potential challengers for Alvarez. Ryder going twelve hard rounds with one of the top stars in the sport and withstanding everything Alvarez threw at him til the final bell, likely gives him confidence going into this fight against one of Boxing's noted “Knockout Artists."

Although Munguia has at times struggled to maintain that reputation as he has moved up in weight, he has scored knockouts in three of his last four bouts. With this in mind, the main question going into this fight will be whether Ryder can withstand Munguia’s punching power. John Ryder is a seasoned veteran who knows how to grind out tough decisions by forcing his opponents to engage in rough and often grueling fights where the main tactic has been his ability to apply pressure.

Whether or not Ryder can do that against someone of Munguia's reputation remains to be seen. It is also important to keep in mind, despite Munguia's ability to score quick and often devastating knockouts, there have been times throughout his career where even his best efforts, some fighters, much like Ryder was able to do against Alvarez, were able to go the distance with Munguia, most notably former world title challengers Gabriel Roaado and most recently Sergiy Derevyanchenko, who Munguia was able to drop, but could not finish. 

While it is by no means set in stone that the winner of this fight will be in the immediate future for Alvarez, who likely will have some mandatory title defenses in the pipeline in order to remain an undisputed champion, nevertheless, there is an opportunity for both Munguia and Ryder to try and produce the type of performance that will drum up public demand for either to get an opportunity to fight for the Undisputed Super-Middleweight championship of the world. Only time will tell whether the winner of this fight will be able to maneuver themselves into such an opportunity during 2024 or beyond.

“And That's The Boxing Truth."

Munguia vs. Ryder takes place on Saturday, January 27th at the Footprint Center in Phoenix, AZ. The card can be seen globally on digital subscription sports streaming network DAZN beginning with preliminary bouts at 5:30PM ET/2:30PM PT. This will be followed by the main card beginning at 8PM ET/5PM PT.

Angelo Leo Is Ready To Be ‘One Step Closer’ To Title

Press Release: January 25, 2024 By ProBox TV - Angelo Leo is aiming to be a two-division world champion. 

Credit: ProBox TV 

His January 31 main event bout against Mike Plania on ProBox TV’s Wednesday Night Fights, in Plant City, Florida is, he hopes, the next step towards that goal. 

Leo, the former WBO super-bantamweight champion, now campaigns at featherweight. Trained by his father, Miguel Leo, the duo relocated to Las Vegas, Nevada. Originally from Albuquerque, they moved to Los Angeles but because of the bad traffic and the expensive cost of living, they sought opportunities elsewhere. Leo now calls Las Vegas home.

“Vegas was our second relocation, our first was Los Angeles,” Leo told ProBox TV. “We stayed there in Los Angeles for around two-to-three years, then we decided to move back to Albuquerque when I turned pro, and then we decided to move to Vegas. Vegas was the place to be, it wasn’t too far from L.A. There is a big boxing community here, and it is probably the best move we made.”

Currently ranked No. 9 by the WBA at featherweight, Leo reflected on his upcoming opponent. 

“I have seen Mike fight before, he is a good fighter,” Leo said. “He is explosive, and he is a formidable opponent.” 

“He fought [Joshua] Greer at 118 [lbs], I believe, and then he moved up to 122. His last fight was a 130 [lbs], and this one is at 126 [lbs]. He is kind of back-and-forth [between weight classes]…it doesn’t worry me, we are here to get that W.”

Leo made it clear this is the next step toward his goal of becoming a two-division world champion. The 29-year-old prizefighter, nicknamed ‘El Chinito’, has a record of 22 wins, one loss, with 10 knockouts and he is eager to make a run at a belt. 

“My goal is to win the featherweight world title. I want to win a second world title in a different weight class. The goal is just to keep winning. Get that W January 31st, and then from there see what ProBox has in store for me.”

Jonas-Mayer: "Run It Back!"

One of the most consistent subjects in the sport of Boxing over the last several years  is Women's Boxing. The single word that comes to mind that can describe the last several years, which cannot necessarily be shared by their male counterparts? “Progress.” 

Perhaps one of the main reasons for that is the old adage of “The Best Fighting The Best.” Something that has been consistent for women in the sport has been the willingness to not only pit the best fighters against each other, not only unify weight divisions in the process, but also do so in such a way where the various political elements that be in Boxing, as well as egos of the fighters and their respective promoters do not stand in the way of such “Progress,” which has only accelerated the sport’s growth for women. The latest example of this took place on January 20th where IBF Welterweight world c'mon Natasha Jonas met former unified Jr. Lightweight world champion Mikaela Mayer at the Echo Arena in Liverpool, England.

A fight that not only brought together two of the top fighters in Women's Boxing, but also two rival promoters in Ben Shalom of Boxxer and Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum of Top Rank, Inc. While there are times when such collaborations do not necessarily result in the most competitive fights, Jonas-Mayer would prove to be an exception.

For ten rounds, Jonas and Mayer engaged in a battle of wills where neither fighter backed down and gave the other much ground. Often when fights like this are fought in Women’s Boxing, a contributing factor to a fight that ends up being so closely fought is the two minute round length. Only recently, have women’s bouts begun to use the standard three minute round length and world championship distance of twelve rounds that men’s bouts are fought under. This would prove to be a fight that needed three minute rounds and likely would have also benefited from two extra rounds. 

An element that surrounded this fight was that the challenger Mikaela Mayer was fighting for the first time in the 147lb. Welterweight division after previously competing in the 130lb. Jr. Lightweight division where she was a unified world champion. What stood out to this observer from the start of this bout was Mayer looked like a natural Welterweight that could potentially move up to either Jr. Middleweight or Middleweight and compete effectively. One other aspect that stood out was in this fight, rather than using angles and lateral movement that had been a focal point of her style in previous fights, Mayer applied more of a come forward, pressure approach against Jonas. 

Although the pressure of Mayer clearly made a difference in that she was the one bringing the fight, she tended to walk straight forward and not approach Jonas from angles. This created a scenario where Mayer was throwing and generally was the fighter landing first, but it was the champion Jonas landing crisp counter punches on Mayer as she came forward. From the perspective of this observer, Mayer’s pressure approach and combination punching was dictating how the fight was being fought, but her inability to avoid being countered periodically, made many of the rounds tight and competitive. Nevertheless, the consistent pattern of Mayer not only coming forward, not only landing first most of the time, but tending to do so in combinations of punches gave her an edge in many of the rounds on my scorecard.

What made this fight challenging to score was, despite the pattern being established of Mayer coming forward and forcing the fight, Jonas landed the harder punches when she did land, and those punches were clear and easy to see. One aspect that can at times be overlooked when a fighter is moving up in weight beyond how said fighter will look physically at a higher weight, is how that fighter will respond to being hit by opponents that in theory are naturally stronger and at times bigger. For her part, Mayer was able to take the best of what Jonas was able to land and keep coming forward.

At the conclusion of the ten round world championship bout, I arrived with a score of seven rounds to three or 97-93 in points, in favor of Mayer. While that score might appear lopsided, many of the rounds were close and could have really been scored either way depending on one's perspective. The pattern of the fight of not only Mayer’s aggression, but more specifically, what seemed to be effective aggression throughout, is what I based my scoring on. As is the case in most fights in Women's Boxing however, because of the short two minute round length, it made things close where a round could be decided by moments in a round or who might be able to land solidly before a round ends, to give the last impression not only on fans, but more specifically and importantly, the three official judges scoring a fight.

It was not surprising to hear a split decision announced in this fight due to the way it was fought. Although I felt Mayer did enough to win several of the rounds, it will often boil down to not only as I have said countless times when it comes to close fights, what a judge prefers in their own criteria based on clean punching, effective aggression, ring generalship, and defense, but also moments that can sway opinion one way or the other in close rounds, particularly in fights where the rounds are only two minutes in duration. Ultimately, it would be Jonas, who would get the nod on two judges scorecards to retain her IBF world championship with the deciding scorecard being only a one point difference between a winner being determined and the fight being declared a draw. 

While I felt that Mayer did enough to win and there will be no doubt accusations of potential bias from some fans due to the fact that this fight was held in Jonas’ hometown as well as fans at times allowing favoritism to influence their opinions, it was a close and competitive fight. Perhaps subtle differences are the reason for the outcome.

What does yours truly mean by “Subtle Differences?” Natasha Jonas did seem to land the harder punches of the two fighters. Even though Mayer seemed to be the one forcing the fight and outworking the champion, which could have swayed opinion in Jonas’ favor. It may have also been “Subtle Differences” in terms of what Mayer was unable to do that resulted in Jonas getting the decision. For example, in addition to not approaching Jonas at angles as she came forward, Mayer did not faint with her upper body and did not move her head as she was coming forward and looking to cut the distance between herself and the champion. This not only allowed Jonas the opportunity to land counter punches, but because Mayer was also not throwing as she was coming forward or throwing from too far a distance, it gave the champion room to maneuver in order to land those shots, despite being outworked.

How could the outcome have been different? In most of her flights, Mikaela Mayer usually does everything in terms of offense behind a consistent jab and this in addition to using angles and lateral movement tends to give her the upper hand. It should not be overlooked or dismissed that in addition to moving up in weight, this was also the first time Mayer had faced a southpaw in her career. When an orthodox boxer faces a southpaw, the jab as a weapon tends to be taken out of the equation for the conventional fighter simply due to the difference in stances and the fact that it is at times easier for a southpaw if they know what they are doing from a tactical standpoint to counter over the jab of the conventional fighter Boxing out of the orthodox stance.

There is one weapon a conventional fighter has however, that can even things if they know how to use it tactically. The right hand. Mayer did land several right hands throughout this fight, most effectively when she was able to lend combinations, but in addition to the lack of head movement, faints, and angles, she did not lead with her right hand and that may have made a difference, particularly if she were able to bait Jonas into throwing a punch where she could have dodged using faints and/or head movement and come in behind her right hand as she came forward in trying to close the distance with pressure as opposed to coming straight in without throwing something to keep Jonas on the defensive or throwing punches from too far a distance and leaving herself open to being countered, which Jonas was able to take advantage of throughout the fight.

Nevertheless, Jonas and Mayer were able to provide not only a great flight, but also the latest in a growing list of examples as to the growth of the sport for women. A great fight deserves an encore. “Run It Back!”

Jonas-Mayer Preview

The first major Women’s world championship bout of 2024 will take place on Saturday, January 20th as two-division world champion Natasha Jonas will make the first defense of her IBF World Welterweight championship against former Unified Jr. Lightweight world champion  Mikaela Mayer in Liverpool, England at the Echo Arena. A fight that can be seen here in the United States on digital subscription sports streaming network ESPN+. Jonas and Mayer are not only two of the best female boxers in the entire sport, but in a wider context, this bout follows what was a significant year of progress for Women’s Boxing and the bout between the two should continue that momentum.

Natasha Jonas has won world championships in the Jr. Middleweight and Welterweight divisions and will come into this fight off of winning the IBF Welterweight world championship in her last outing in July of last year with an eighth round stoppage of Kandi Wyatt in Manchester, England. Although Jonas has now moved down in weight from the 154lb. Jr. Middleweight division to the 147lb. Welterweight division, she has punching power in both hands and has scored knockouts in nine of her fourteen career wins. Whether or not she will be able to use that punching power in what will be her first defense of the IBF crown remains to be seen. Jonas’ opponent on January 20th will likely prove to be a difficult task in the form of Mikaela Mayer.

Mayer will enter this fight on a two fight winning streak and is the current IBF number one Welterweight contender. Some will recall that Mayer had three successful defenses as a Jr. Lightweight world champion which saw her win the WBO world championship and unify it with the IBF world championship before she lost her crown in a very narrow ten round split decision loss to WBC/WBO world champion Alycia Baumgardner in what was a fight for the undisputed championship in the Jr. Lightweight division. While that fight could have gone either way, much like many bouts in Women’s Boxing fought with a two minute round length, the loss to Baumgardner, the only of Mayer’s career, did not lower Mayer’s standing as one of the top fighters in the sport. After brief stops in the Lightweight and Jr. Welterweight divisions in her last two bouts, Mayer now sets her sights on trying to become a two-division world champion. 

While both fighters can do a little bit of everything, some would likely say that Jonas has an advantage both in regard to her punching power as she has four more knockouts than Mayer has in scoring five in her nineteen career wins, but also in terms of the fact that she has fought at heavier weights than the challenger has thus far in their respective careers. Both due to the fact that Women’s Boxing is still very much growing and also opportunities being sprinkled throughout weight classes, which usually offers an opportunity for fighters to move up and down the weight scale depending on what opportunities might be available including to fight for world championships, the fact that Mayer will be facing someone naturally bigger and theoretically stronger than her, does not necessarily equate to a disadvantage at least on paper. What Mayer does bring to the table is she is a highly skilled boxer with good hand speed, lateral movement, and has the ability to approach her opponents and attack at varying angles. 

An element that could prove crucial in this fight is that like most world championship bouts, this will be scheduled for ten, two minute rounds as opposed to twelve, three minute rounds, which only recently made its way into Women’s Boxing. Both Jonas and Mayer have been in close fights that many feel should have gone their respective way and part of the reason why those fights were close was perhaps attributed to the two minute round length. Unless there is a change to both the scheduled distance and round length that might occur later than this writing prior to the bout taking place, the format the fight will be fought under, and skill level of both champion and challenger could result in a very closely fought contest and it will come down to which fighter will be able to control the tempo of the combat.

What this fight also represents is that Women’s Boxing remains committed not only to continuing to grow the sport for all who compete in it, but also a commitment to the adage of “The Best Fighting The Best.” Something that if their male counterparts could also do on as frequent a basis as female fighters have done and continue to do without the politics of the sport rearing its head. Boxing overall would truly be elevated to a higher level if that were the case.

Beterbiev Batters And Stops Smith In 7

The much anticipated World Light-Heavyweight  championship bout between undefeated unified IBF/WBC/WBO world champion Artur Beterbiev and former WBA Super-Middleweight world champion and WBC number one Light-Heavyweight contender Callum Smith, in addition to being an intriguing battle between two fighters with punching power, was anticipated largely because the fight, which was supposed to take place during 2023, but was delayed because of a dental infection suffered by the champion. By allowing the fight to simmer, albeit unintentionally, it also allowed the fight to take place with the potential of the winner to face undefeated unified WBA/IBO champion Dmitry Bivol for the Undisputed Light-Heavyweight championship of the world.

Although it is no secret to those who follow the sport of Boxing that the potential of an encounter between Beterbiev and Bivol has been discussed for years at this point, it is in some ways disrespectful to any opponent when there is at least an expectation of a fight being in the works for a champion before that opponent gets their opportunity to fight said champion. Nevertheless, Callum Smith entered the Videotron Centre on January 13th in Quebec City, Canada, Beterbiev's adopted home country to challenge the champion with one agenda, to try and upset the apple card of whatever might have been in the pipeline for the Beterbiev later this year. 

Despite a tactical start between the two fighters where both fighters, who were each coming off lengthy stretches of inactivity due to this bout being delayed, started slowly, the primary difference in this fight was the punching power of Beterbiev as well as the pressure he was able to apply on Smith. Smith was able to have success periodically in landing combinations flush on Beterbiev, but he could not stop the pattern that developed in which the fight was fought. Beterbiev was able to take what Smith was able to dish out, apply pressure on the challenger, and gradually unload with a full arsenal of punches to the body and head when he was able to get Smith against the ropes.

To Smith's credit, he withstood as much as he could and continued to try and turn the fight around in his favor. After four rounds of seeing this pattern, Smith's trainer, former two-division world champion Buddy McGirt, who for the last several decades has become one of the top trainers in the entire sport, told his fighter that he needed to use his jab more, to try to go to Beterbiev's body with his left hook, and needed to keep the combat in the center of the ring. Smith made an effort in rounds five and six to do that and did have some success, but the one constant was that whenever Beterbiev landed, his punches had more power behind them and did more damage. The attempted tactical adjustment by Smith did seem to be changing the tempo slightly. 

In round seven, the roles seemed to reverse with Smith applying the pressure and backing Beterbiev up. Unfortunately for the former Super-Middleweight world champion, just as it appeared he was about to get Beterbiev cornered on the ropes, the champion caught him as he was coming forward with a right hand that landed flush on the jaw. This badly staggered Smith, who had no answer for the brutal barrage of punches that followed, which ultimately sent the challenger down to the canvas for the first time in his career. Showing the mettle of a warrior, Smith was able to get up from the knockdown, but would be sent down a second time from a follow-up barrage of punches from Beterbiev. Although Smith got up a second time, McGirt, seeing his fighter was compromised, got into the ring and stopped the fight at 2:00 of round seven. 

The eigth successful defense of his crown for Beterbiev also signaled his twentieth straight knockout in twenty professional fights. With the victory, obviously, the question now becomes whether a fight brtween Beterbiev and Bivol for the Undisputed Light-Heavyweight championship of the world will happen later this year. According to Beterbiev's promoter Hall of Famer Bob Arum, contrary to what wss believed by some prior to this fight, a bout between Beterbiev and Bivol has not been finalized, but the goal would be for it to occur later this year in Saudi Arabia, which is fast becoming one of the sought after destinations for Boxing’s bigger events.

Although a fight between the two has been talked about for years, if Arum is correct and an encounter between Beterbiev and Bivol does take place in either late spring or during the summer of this year, it should be viewed as significant progress and a victory for the sport. All too often, fights like this where there is an undisputed championship involved and/or other bouts that have significant public interest can take several years to make happen and too often, when those fights do finally occur, it fails to live up to expectations and the combination of both a lengthy wait as well as a perceived lack of competitive action leaves a bad taste in the mouths of Boxing fans, who are also often asked to pay an asinine price to see those fights when they finally happen. If the politics of the sport do not in one way or another interfere, there are no other roadblocks that come up during the negotiation process, and the fight fan be made within a reasonable timeframe as Arum has suggested, it is a true win for Boxing and should be celebrated.
