The circumstances that led to the Heavyweight bout between unbeaten top Heavyweight contenders Fabio Wardley and Justis Huni on June 7th at the Portman Road Football Ground in Ipswich, England was not ideal for either boxer. Due to the fact that it was made on short notice where Huni stepped in for the injured Jarrell Miller, neither man had the type of preparation that they would likely prefer going into a fight.  When one throws into the equation rainy conditions outdoors, one may not have known what to expect. In terms of styles, this was an adjustment for Wardley, who had been preparing to face a power puncher like himself in Miller, now tasked with facing a more balanced boxer/puncher in Huni. While the perception when fights like this are made on short notice is the fighter stepping into a fight is at a disadvantage, this was a case where one could say it was truly unknown as to having an idea of what could happen with one fighter having the type of punching power that is sud...

As the Boxing world prepares for the reunification of the Heavyweight division, which will come when the two champions of the division Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois meet in July in a highly anticipated rematch, this time for the Undisputed Heavyweight championship of the world, focus has begun to take shape in regard to the potential challengers that might follow for the winner of that fight. Recently, we saw the fast-rising Moses Itauma score his twelfth victory in his career by scoring a devastating knockout of Mike Balogun on May 24th. Itauma, who is rated in the top three in the Heavyweight division in both the WBO and the WBA rankings, may be on the short list of potential challengers for either Usyk or Dubois.  On June 7th, however, another Heavyweight who could also be a potential option will return to action. This observer is referring to undefeated WBA number one rated Heavyweight contender Fabio Wardley, who will face fellow unbeaten Heavyweight Justis Huni in a sche...

The  premise of the doubleheader that took place on May 31st at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, NV was to position former IBF Super-Middleweight world champion Caleb Plant and former WBC Middleweight world champion Jermall Charlo, two of the more notable fighters currently competing under the Premier Boxing Champions banner, to face off in a highly anticipated encounter later this year. While the concept of fighters being strategically positioned to face each other, competing on the same card prior to that encounter being made is certainly not new as such tactics are meant primarily to try and build interest in that fight to come, there is always a danger that is attached to the strategy. Although when cards like this are not expected to for lack of a better term, “Flip The Script" as Boxing is not a predetermined form of performance art, there are times where no matter how lopsided a fight may appear to learn towards the favorite going into it, things do not alway...

Credit: Mike O'Hara/Dragon Fire Boxing  Press Release: May 29, 2025 By Dragon Fire Boxing - This Friday, Dragon Fire Boxing Promotions hits the Metro City Night Club for Thunderdome 50. One of the features is, Irish standout Owen “Bomber” Corrigan looks to keep his undefeated record intact when he fights Alex Muster in his third professional fight. Back in March, Corrigan defeated China’s Liang Wang in a lopsided unanimous decision. Although the scorecards made the fight look one sided, Wang did make a great account of himself with his durability. Corrigan revealed that he reflects on that fight as a “welcome package” for the professional ranks. “Yeah, it wasn't my ideal performance, I trained harder than what I showed.” Corrigan said. “In terms of professional boxing, I think every good pro will always have that one fight that is like a welcome package. Here we go, here's the pros.   “I think for me, [Liang] Wang was my welcome package. I was telling everyone d...

The month of May 2025 began with Saul “Canelo" Alvarez reclaiming the IBF Super-Middleweight crown and in doing so, also reclaimed his status as the undisputed king of the Super-Middleweight division by scoring a twelve round unanimous decision over previously unbeaten IBF world champion William Scull in Saudi Arabia. While that fight ultimately proved to be formulaic for Alvarez and serve as a set up for a highly anticipated encounter between the champion and the undefeated multi-division world champion Terence Crawford in September, an obvious question that will be asked is what will be in store for the winner of that fight down the line?  On May 31st a doubleheader will take place at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, NV featuring two former world champions, who are being positioned to potentially face off later this year, with that winner then potentially in line to possibly face the winner of Alvarez-Crawford. The two bouts, which will co-headline a Boxing card pro...
