BOXING NEWS – USA: Maidana vs Erik Morales, Guerrero vs Katsidis, Kirkland…
Golden Boy Promotions, Universum Box-Promotion and Box Latino organized a boxing event that is expected to be very spectacular, whose main event is the fight valid for the interim WBA World light welterweight title between Marcos Rene Maidana and Erik Morales. “El Chino” Maidana is one of those boxers that nobody wants to face, has a record of 29 wins (with 27 Ko) and two defeats, one against Andriy Kotelnik and the last one versus Amir Khan, but the Argentine boxer has not never lost really, since both fights (especially in Germany against Kotelnik) were very questionable decisions. I think that for “El Terrible” Morales this fight was the wrong choice, the Mexican boxer is
BOXING NEWS – 3 WBC titles in Japan: Hasegawa vs Gonzalez, Nishioka vs Munoz…
Scheduled for Friday, April 8, in Japan there are 3 WBC world titles up for grabs. The main event is the fight between Hozumi Hasegawa and Jhonny Gonzalez valid for the featherweight division. Hasegawa should be the favorite because it is the holder of the title (won against Juan Carlos Burgos in 2010) and he also fights in Japan; Gonzalez, like all Mexicans is very dangerous because he has a lot of Ko in his record (41 ko on 47 wins) and he would like to repeat the feat of his countryman Fernando Montiel that
BOXING NEWS – Lemieux vs Rubio: WBC middleweight title eliminator
Tomorrow, Friday, April 7 will be an important day for the young talent David Lemieux that will face the experienced and dangerous Marco Antonio Rubio. Canadian Lemieux has already fought against difficult opponents, such as Hector Camacho Jr. or Elvin Ayala (both have lost at first round by ko!), but “El Veneno” Rubio is much more dangerous as he is a boxer with heavy punches, 42 ko on 49 victories, and he lost just against the best: Kelly Pavlik, Zaurbek Baysangurov, Kassim Ouma, Kofi Jantuah and Saul Roman. If the 22-year-old Lemieux (25-0-0 with 24 Ko) will win the fight (we think so) it means that
BOXING NEWS – Huck vs Nakash, Helenius vs Samuel Peter – N’Jikam, Wlodarczyk…
This weekend the world of boxing has not scheduled any event really interesting. The most important one is surely Saturday, April 2 in Germany where Marco Huck will fight versus Ran Nakash (replacing the injured Giacobbe Fragomeni) for the WBO cruiserweight title, in the same evening Robert Helenius will face Samuel Peter for the WBO and WBA Inter-Continental heavyweight title, and as final fight of the evening Artur Hein will fight against Tony Averlant for the vacant EBU-EU (European Union) light heavyweight title.
In Europe, the other two most important boxing’s fights of the weekend will be: Hassan N’Dam N’Jikam vs Giovanni Lorenzo for the interim WBA World Middleweight title (held in France) and Krzysztof Wlodarczyk vs Francisco Palacios (in Poland) for the
BOXING NEWS – Gamboa vs Solis Video promo, Diaz vs Kennedy, Garcia vs Remillard
The most interesting boxing’s event of the week it focuses on the fight between Yuriorkis Gamboa vs Jorge Solis, valid for the WBA and IBF featherweight titles. The ranking of the featherweight division is dominated by Juan Manuel Lopez, but if Gamboa wants to fight against “Juanma”, is forced to win versus the experienced and solid boxer Jorge “Coloradito” Solis, who has only two defeats (one with Manny Pacquiao). On the same evening (broadcasted by Hbo), there will be two more fighting of particular interest among four undefeated boxers: Jorge Diaz vs Teon Kennedy (valid for the USBA super bantamweight title) and Miguel Angel Garcia vs Matt Remillard (valid for
BOXING NEWS – South Africa: Steve Molitor vs Ndlovu 2, Mthalane vs Casimero
Saturday, March 26, in South Africa there will be the rematch between Steve Molitor and Takalani Ndlovu, fight valid for the IBF super bantamweight title. The two boxers, both among the top 10 in their division, had already faced exactly one year earlier, in Canada, homecountry of Molitor, who had won by unanimous decision. On the same evening there will be another good fight for a world title (IBF flyweight), which will be between the South African Moruti Mthalane (26-2-0) versus the Philippine Johnriel Casimero (14-1-0).
BOXING NEWS – Dimitrenko vs Sosnowski Video promo, Kentikian vs Arrazola
The most interesting boxing event in Europe of this week is the fight between Alexander Dimitrenko and Albert Sosnowski, valid for EBU (European) heavyweight title. Dimitrenko has lost only one fight in his career (against Eddie Chambers by majority decision) and he hopes to win against the Polish Sosnowski to return to have a chance for a world title. On the same evening will fight the undefeated Susi Kentikian that will defend his three world titles (WIBF, WBA, WBO female flyweight) against
BOXING NEWS – Lucian Bute vs Magee, St Juste vs Berrio – Showtime broadcasting
The number one of the ranking in the super middleweight division Lucian Bute will fight, Saturday, March 19, against Brian Magee. We imagine a win not too hard for Bute, Rumanian undefeated boxer who will defend his IBF super middleweight title against Magee, English boxer who will fight for the first time overseas (each time that he has faced some very good boxer he lost). On the same evening, in another fight that could be spectacular, Renan St Juste will fight versus Alejandro Berrio. This night will be broadcast on Showtime Boxing: Saturday, March 19, 10PM ET / PT.
BOXING NEWS – Klitschko vs Solis – Saturday 19 WBC title – video promo
Finally, Saturday, March 19, Vitali Klitschko will fight against an opponent worthy of a world title: Odlanier Solis. Klitschko doesn’t lost since 2003, when he was defeated by Lennox Lewis and he also lost the WBC heavyweight title, which Klitschko regained against Corrie Sanders a year later. Vitali has, however, almost 40 years and he will fight against the Cuban Solis (30 years old), undefeated as a professional boxer and three time gold medalist at the World Amateur Boxing Championships (once at the Olympics). Will the end of the Ukrainian champion come?
On the same evening another interesting fight will be
