9. Vitali Klitschko [5 years, 2 months and 4 days]

8. James J. Jeffries [5 years, 11 months and 4 days]
“Massive Jeff or Jim” or “The Great White Hope”, as he was known, Jeffries won the linear crown in 1899 against Bob Fitzsimmons. Within almost six years, at the top of sport, he made an amazing 22 defense, registering the fastest knockout in history in the fight for championship in weighty weight.
In 45 or 55 seconds he defeated Jacek Finnegan massively, depending on the report from 1900. Jeffries’s reign ended only when he retired in 1904 at the unbeaten 18-0-2.
Jeffries came out of his pension six years later to challenge Jacek Johnson, but he was defeated in the fifteen of the 45 -planned round. It was his only loss.
7. Muhammad Ali [5 years, 11 months and 9 days]
By beating Jeffries for a few days, Ali does not need to introduce and he would prevail much longer if he did not fall into Joe Frazier. The fight of the century stopped the extraordinary first era of Ali as a world ruler after he “shook the world” against Sonna Liston in 1964.
6. Jack Johnson [6 years, 3 months and 10 days]
Jack Johnson is one of the most memorable linear heavyweight champions as the first of African Origin. The boxer from Galveston in Texas maintained a segregated crown from 1903, until he finally fought for a full title in 1908.

His victory over Dominick McCaffrey was intended as the beginning of the race, which covered only three defense in seven years. Before Sullivan faced Corbett, he was out of the ring for five years.
Sullivan kept his pedigree as a man to defeat because he was undefeated in 37 matches before the Corbetta fight.
4. Jack Dempsey [7 years, 2 months, and 19 days]

Berlanga vs. Sheeraz: The outdoor setting of the Louis Armstrong stadium contrasts with the eliteness of Times Square, but do they resonate?

Place of the event of Edgar Berlang vs. Hamzah Sheeraz from July 12 will be the National Tennis Center of 14,053 places at the Louis Armstrong stadium in Queens, Up-to-date York. It is a place that works for this sport, but not in boxing. Unfortunately, the stadium has many places at the ground level, makes them useless to watch box.
Fans are more concerned about the PPV price of the event than the location. If Turki wants to satisfy fans, he should value an event with a discount, because Berlanga is in the main event.
It is not clear why Turki Alalshikh chose this location for the event on July 12. His smaller place than Madison Square Garden or Barclays Center. The only obvious benefit from the Louis Armstrong stadium is that it will be an external place, such as the previous Turki event on May 2 at Times Square. The roof is extended in the event of a strange rain, sometimes in Up-to-date York. This is one of the green states.
Fights
Edgar Blangga vs. Hamzah Sheeraz – the main event
Shakur Stevenson vs. William Zepeda-Scholar
Alberto Puello vs. Subriel Matias
David Morrell vs. Imam khataev
Ordinary fans will be cheerful that they can participate in a fight, and not exclude, as we have seen in the Times Square event. The crowd for this event was several hundred carefully selected VIPs, many of which wealthy millionaires. The fights were terrible and it was what was happening at a bad match.
Local Berlanga string?
It is doubtful whether this place will be sold, because none of the fights resonates with the crowd from Up-to-date York. Although Berlanga comes from Brooklyn, it is not a enormous enough name to bring a crowd of 14,000. Shakur comes from Newark, Up-to-date Jersey and it is not very popular in this state. Of course, Turki can afford to make the event half -filled, but it is better to be in the formulation of this card at the 5600 places at Madison Square Garden in Up-to-date York. In this way, a sale would be guaranteed.
Berlanga did not do enough in his career to count him, to bring a enormous audience. It would be a better idea for Turk to find a popular warrior who could complain about the event. Shakur would still be a good factor, and Berlanga would be perfect for the third fight in advance.

Cameron Cameron hopes that the long -awaited trilogy fight Katie Taylor is a more realistic perspective after joining Jake Paul’s most valuable promotions.
Cameron (20-1, 8 KO) announced that she had signed a contract with MVP on Monday with another UK star IBF Super Middle Wweight, Savannah Marshall.
After two hits against Taylor (24-1, 6 KO) in 2023 with one victory, Cameron has long called for the third and deciding about the fight.
MVP, which Amanda Serrano also represents, worked closely with Taylor, and their third fight for July 11 in Modern York.
Asked if she hopes that moving to MVP can bring her closer to the third fight against Taylor, Cameron said ESPN: “Yes, I think I think I think [MVP] I now have good working relationships with Katie, she fights with Amanda.
“There is no reason that if he sets out in July, what is the excuse not to fight me.
“This is a huge move. Who knows, Amanda can make a decision, but if Katie wins a win, it will be engaging what movement he makes, because I will be with MVP, he knows that MVP will put off the money, so let’s see what he is doing.”
Cameron’s next opponent is to be announced soon, and the undisputed champion of the welterweight champion is equipped with MVP achievements with promoting fighters.
“The evidence is in the pudding with Amanda Serrano,” said Cameron.
“What they did with Amanda is unbelievable … They are changing the game. Their promotion, content, the promotion they do is simply whole.
“They absolutely break it. This is something I wanted to be part of and I didn’t want to miss the opportunity, so they didn’t even have to set me up.”
Because MVP creates a box and the center of their activities, this movement was elementary for Cameron, although he still had robust relations with the former promoter Frank Warren and Queensberry.
“It was just a really positive transition and it is the most crucial thing. It doesn’t happen often in professional boxing, but I had great relationships with Queensbury, and now I will have great relationships with MVP,” she said.
“I think that every boxer should now look at signing a contract with MVP, because they really invest and put time and effort on women.”

The invincible Shakur has a fight for July 12 against William Zezdedie in Recent York. This is a fight that Stevenson hopes that he will be a gate that will give him a lucrative clash of union with the WBA Lightweight Gervonta “Tank” Davis champion. It may not be.
If Shakur cannot fight the tank, he has few options for great payments at the age of 135. To get good money, he will be expected that he will fight someone who wants to see how he is fighting. In this case, Conor Benn can be Shakura’s best option. He can drag Benna back to 147 or press on catching 143 or 144 to give himself a miniature handicap, such as this Conor received for losing from the average weight of Chris Eubank Jr. April 26.
If Shakur does not take over this fight with Benne, he could get stuck in defense of his delicate WBC title against one of these risky contenders:
– Andy Cruz – he took first place from WBC
– Abdullah Mason
– Raymond Muratalla
– Herrera cores
– Floyd Schofield
They are all challenging for Shakur because they have power i / / / skills. His actions will fall if he fights with these guys. Stevenson cannot afford it and cannot take another Josh Padley-The an opponent without destroying his career. It was stupid carry Through Shakur he agreed to the idea of fighting an electrician Padley in his last fight on February 22. He and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, did not think the reaction from fighting the player at a low level, such as Padley.
