Shakur Stevenson says he doesn’t have Naoya Inoue in his top 3 pound-for-pound list because he’s fought “no-names” since his one good win against Stephen ‘Cool Boy Steph’ Fulton in 2023. Stevenson makes an excellent point. Inoue (30-0, 27 KOs) should be nowhere near the top 3 based on the lackluster opposition he’s been padding his record against. Even putting Naoya on the list would be going overboard. The top 10 should be for fighters who are taking risks with their careers. P4P: Inoue’s “No-Name” Foes – Ramon Cardenas– Ye Joon Kim– TJ Doheny– Luis Nery– Marlon Tapales Inoue has…

Hamzah Sheeraz’s trainer, Andy Lee, says Edgar Berlanga has been “adding fuel to the fire” with his crude remarks about him during the build-up for their main event fight on July 12th at the Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York. Lee says Sheeraz (21-0-1, 17 KOs) is stepping into the “lion’s den” to take on the hometown boy, Berlanga (23-1, 18 KOs). He expects a loud crowd of Berlanga supporters. Berlanga: Selling Tickets, PPV Berlanga vs. Sheeraz will be fighting in a WBC super middleweight title eliminator. The event will be shown live on DAZN PPV. “I think he’s…

Ryan Garcia posted on social media on Friday night, saying he’d like to fight Devin Haney at the White House. Haney quickly shot back, telling him to “get back on your drug testing, then.” Garcia Still Wants Rematch Surprisingly, Garcia (24-2, 20 KOs) is still interested in fighting Haney (32-0, 15 KOs) despite his loss to tune-up opponent Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero. That was supposed to set up their rematch in October, but Kingry failed to do his part by getting beaten by Rolly. A rematch might be worthless at this point, especially if Haney gets blown out of the water…

Turki Alalshikh announced today on X that Abdullah Mason will face Sam Noakes for the vacant WBO lightweight title in a “massive Riyadh Season” event later this year in November. That fight will be on the undercard. Turki’s November card David Benavidez vs. Anthony Yarde – main event Brian Norman Jr. vs. Devin Haney – co-feature Abdullah Mason vs. Sam Noakes Fans are pleased with the card. The only issue they have is the order of the card. WBC light heavyweight champion Benavidez’s fight against Yarde isn’t one that fans are excited about, as it appears to be a mismatch.…

Tyson Fury has popped back up—again—this time claiming he’ll face Oleksandr Usyk for a third fight in 2026. That’s right, April 18, 2026 at Wembley, according to a self-congratulatory social media post featuring a poster and enough laughing emojis to make it look like a parody account. This is the same Fury who retired (again) in January and now wants us to believe this latest “comeback” is real. Saudi boxing chief Turki Al-Sheikh says he got Fury’s “word.” Great—because if there’s one thing more solid than Fury’s defence lately, it’s his promises. Let’s not rewrite history here. Usyk already beat…

Gary Antuanne Russell believes Devin Haney has got the “smarts” to dethrone WBO welterweight champion Brian Norman Jr. in November. Russell thinks Haney (32-0, 15 KOs) can win, but he can’t afford to “get touched” because if he does, it’s a “Done deal.” “Damaged” Haney Post-Garcia Russell thinks Haney is “damaged” from his fight against Ryan Garcia, and that’s why he was on the move the entire fight last May in his fight against Jose Ramirez in Times Square in New York City. That’s why Devin is going to be in survival mode against Norman Jr. (28-0, 22 KOs). He…

Floyd Schofield has been elevated to #1 in the WBA’s new updated rankings at lightweight, making him the top contender for Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis’ title. Now, it’s only a matter of time before Tank will be forced to fight Schofield (19-0, 13 KOs) or get stripped. There’s a lot of doubt about Tank Davis choosing to defend his WBA title against Schofield because he’s been very strategic about the opponents he chooses to fight since picking up that belt in December 2019. Some fans are predicting that Gervonta will retire or vacate the WBA title rather than fight Schofield and…

When you talk about Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez and look at what he has achieved—from debuting as a fifteen-year-old boy to now being a thirty-five-year-old man—it is easy to run out of superlatives. The same goes for Terence ‘Bud’ Crawford. The words Legend, Superstar, Undisputed Champion, and Pound-for-Pound Great have been thrown around by boxing scribes for decades, but we rarely hear fighters being described as special. Crawford and Alvarez are that; they are both extraordinary in what they have achieved in their lives as boxers. Crawford began boxing at seven years old in the local gym in Omaha, Nebraska. He…
