On February 22, the rematch between the undisputed heavyweight champion, Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol, brought 340k PPV buys worldwide.

The ring reports PAY-PER-View purchase rate for Beterbiv-Bivol 2. Although these numbers may seem reasonable at first glance, they do not reveal what PPV is buying for the USA, probably the largest fight market.

They were thought to be low. You can’t celebrate 340 thousand All over the world, because it ignores the lack of interest of American fans in this event because of a faint headliner. Rematch Beterbiev vs. Bivol was a bad idea.

Tedious bivol

Their first fight was tedious to watch, and the fans who remembered how tedious it was, they were not interested in the second clash four months later. It’s like watching a bad movie and asking to see it again. People don’t want it. Saudis must get a clue and understand that fans are not interested in seeing Beterbaview and Bivol again.

Too few fans want to see these two battles for the third time. Low PPV sums for the event on February 22 inform about everything you need to know. People hate this duel and it’s understandable why. Bivol is so tedious to watch, and Beterbiev has become elderly and ponderous. He can no longer cut off the ring and did not let his hand release, as he used to be when he was younger.

Event organizers must understand the market. If they see that the fight is tedious and has low PPV numbers, configuration of the rematch is not a good idea. Because Bivol’s fighting style is terrible to watch fans for us, it is engaging to match guys like him against youthful killers. 40 -year -old Beterbiev is too free And elderly to chase Mover like Bivol around the ring for 12 rounds.

Bivol should have entered a rematch, fighting with one of the best airy pretenders to heavyweight. He should have been on the card of February 22 of the “Last Cresendo” event, and not to receive a rematch after losing. He was beaten by Beterbavie in their first fight in October last year. Like all beaten, they should go into queue and return to the return, not a revenge that fans do not want to see.

Last Cresendo’s Undercard

  • Carlos Adams vs. Hamzah Sheeraz
  • Shakur Stevenson vs. Josh Padley
  • Zhilei Zhang vs. Agit Kabayel
  • Ziyad Almaayouf vs. Jonatas Rodrigo Gomes de Oliveira

A kind of fighters with whom Saudis should match a tedious runner, such as Bivol, are guys who can cut off the ring and cross it to oblivion, like David Benavidez or someone with power like David Morrell. 40-year-old Artur Beterbiev has no youthful people to chase Bivol around the ring, and fans do not want to watch these tedious fights.

Image: Abdullah Mason Faces Late Replacement Carlos Ornelas in 10-Round Bout, Aiming for Contender Status Amid Fan Frustration Over Matchup Quality

Delicate pretender Abdullah Mason (17-0, 15 KO) fights with the deputy opponent of Carlos “Chinito” Ornelas (28-4, 15 KO) in 10-order on Saturday, April 5 with the start of the event at 17:30 ET/2: 30 PT, PT, live on ESPN+ with ESPN+ with ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ Pearl Concert Theater at Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas.

The 20 -year -old Mason was originally to fight with the experienced delicate pretender Giovanni Cabrera, but withdrew because of the problem due to injury. He chose the highest rank 30 -year -old A Ornelas Super Feather as a substitute opponent. It is not ideal for Mason, because Ornelas is not as well known as Cabrera, but it is still a good option.

10-round test

Ornelala underwent a 10-round distance with Rafael Espinosis in 2021, before he later captured the WBO belt 126-pounds.

Boxing fans in social media are not satisfied with the fact that Abdullah is fighting another guy who seemingly has no chance of winning and even competitive with him. They want to see how Mason faced someone like Andy Cruz, who called him to fight this week, or Raymond Muratalla.

There is no way that the best rank will allow the Mason anywhere near Cruz or Muratalla, because it is too early. The scented performance of Abdullah against Yohan Vasquez on November 8 last year showed that the highest ranks must slowly move him. Vasquez dropped Mason twice in the first round.

“This fight at steps. He knows how to move his head and feet. He can hit. We will be prepared for what is coming,” said Abdullah Mason about his fight with the deputy opponent of Ornelas.

For ornelas to go with espinosis, it means that he can make a good shot. If he manages to hang there long enough to test the delicate chin of Mason, maybe he was able to end what Yohan Vasquez began in November last year.

Going forward

“This is my first official 10-round. Akin Reyes and the Bess barrack YouTube channel. “I’m quite well moved [by Top Rank]. Giovanni Cabrera was a good fight, but he fell. After that, I will probably have co-maan or something like the former master.

“We are there. I deal with 7 WBC and 10 WBA. It’s just a matter of time in the next two or three fights before I enter the rankings. Everything else is associated with this,” said Mason.

Eddie Hearna’s forecasts: Reduced Puntu Joe Joyce resistance leads to the expected knockout by Filip Hrgovica in four rounds

Image: Eddie Hearn's Prediction: Joe Joyce's Diminished Punch Resistance Leads to Anticipated Knockout by Filip Hrgovic Within Four Rounds

Promoter Eddie Hearn predicts that weighty weight claimant Filip Hrgovic will break Joe Joyce “Inside Three or Four Runs” on Saturday, April 5, on a live cooperative in Manchester in England.

Joyce: Used?

Hearn believes that Joyce’s resistance has decreased from his two knockout losses from Zhilei Zhang and thousands of sparring rounds he did over the years. He notes that the blows that Veteran Derek Chisora ​​hurt 39-year-old Joyce in their fight last summer on July 27, he would never have done it to him before in his career.

Saturday’s Joyce event vs. Hrgovic will be shown live in Dazn. The main card starts at 14.00 et/11 in the morning PT, and the main ring of the event goes around 17:00 et/2 pm entitled

“He had a very close fight with Derek Chisor. No knocking out [in round nine]It would be very close – said the promoter Eddie Hearn Stamping ground About the recent defeat of Joe Joyce with a 41-year-old Veteran Derek Chisory on July 27 last year.

“Derek Chisora ​​is now mandatory for [IBF heavyweight] World Championship title. He just defeated Otto Wallin. [Hearn makes a face, giving his thoughts on Derek being the IBF mandatory to fight for a world title.]”

The arrows with which Joyce was hit against Chisorie were caused by the fact that he fought too close, leaving defense and was leisurely. He fought him wrong. A faster warrior would destroy Chisora ​​inside, but Joyce is so leisurely at this stage of his career that he was defenseless.

It was still a close fight with the result determined by Chisor, who shot Chisor, but Joyce should not lose the warrior at this level. At best, he would beat any version of Chisora.

Impact resistance

“The problem concerns some warriors, and Joe is a good example. Joe was always leisurely in the ring. He never looked like this sensational, qualified warrior,” said Hearn. “In the past he was very tough, it can hit, he is a immense nodule and has a great chin. As his career progressed, his impact resistance has changed.

“Shots that hurt him against Chisorie had never hurt him before. Two [Zhilei] Zhang defeats thousands of rounds of weighty sparring were a problem. If you want to predict, he [Joyce] On Saturday he will be well defeated and I think it will be in three or four rounds, said Hearn.

Joyce was knocked out twice in the first round during his amateur career in 2013. However, he was able to return from these losses and avoid knocking until he met Zhilei Zhang in 2023.

There is no shame when he was knocked out by a great puncher, such as Zhang, because he would do the same with Anthony Joshua if he was associated with similar blows. Zhang is the only guy who stopped Joyce in professionals. In the defeat of the juggernaut against Chisorie, he was never threatened with knocking out. He was dropped in ninth place, but it was more knocking down.

HRGOVICA FREE

Hrgovic says that Joyce is now “antique”, does not look good and must “retire” after the fight on Saturday evening. Of course, Filip is on the same boat, he was knocked out in his last fight and wounded in the match against Demesey McKean on August 12, 2023.

Hrgovic defeated in his last fight, he was eliminated in the eighth round by Daniel Dubois on June 1 last year. If Joyce can stay long enough to land weighty arrows, he can wear Hrgovic to get space. Dubois is also not the fastest guy, but he forced the tempo at the Hrgovita who wore him.

Tank Davis-LaMont Roach Rematch is supposedly discussed

Published

By:

Be cross

It was at least a surprising box of boxing. Gervonta “Tank” Davis was to swim next to another Roach Lamont in the main event of the Pay Per View card. However, it did not work in this way. “Roach fought well” at that time, “so good that many, if not most, felt that Roach should receive victory.” And although the boxing insider writer (yours really) felt that Davis had done enough to get in, the boxing audience felt that Roach should withdraw the ring of The Victor tonight in Brooklyn Barclay’s Center that night.

Undoubtedly, it was a complex night at the Davis’ office. At the beginning, his notable power did not have normal influence when he landed on a brave fence. “What’s more,” wrote boxing Insider, “Roach was able to quit and land effective own shots all the time.” The most surprising thing on that night was the fact that Davis took his knee and the judge did not say that it was a knocking out, as did the standard practice in such situations. Again, it was a complex night in the office for Davis’s popular and bulky impact. However, you should not underestimate a man known as a tank.

For example, ESPN reports that Davis and Roach camps discuss the rematch. He will say a lot about Davis if he actually agrees to this rematch. Roach seems to be a stylistic challenge for Davis. What’s more, Davis has not been able to hurt his man until now. Everything raises the question: how good Davis is if his fists and power cannot end the night earlier? Of course, not all Davis’ victories came from an early detention, but the enormous majority of them. If the rematch falls, Davis will be cut off for him.

Davis would not only look like a real athlete, if he put it all on the line in the rematch, the second fight of Davis-Roach would offer a well-deserved second chance for glory for previously underestimated roach. The man finally spent some time in the center of attention with the first fight. The rematch would provide the warrior with more justified attention. Perhaps this is not a mega fight that Davis would have, but the second battle of Roach would, however, be an critical event in sport.
