Anthony Joshua has handed out a recent opponent, and the iconic boxing promoter tells the star he’s ‘finished’
Published
1 month agoon
Legendary boxing promoter Bob Arum has proposed another opponent for Anthony Joshua, but warned that at the highest level “this is the end for him” after an embarrassing defeat at the hands of Daniel Dubois.
The 34-year-old was punched to the floor three times before being knocked out in the fifth round at Wembley, handing Joshua the fourth defeat of his career after back-to-back defeats to Andy Ruiz Jr and Oleksandr Usyk.
Joshua was banned from boxing for 28 days after his stoppage defeat, which is standard practice in the sport, with much speculation over who the Briton might face next.
A blockbuster clash with Tyson Fury was likely to hinge on Dubois beating, with promoter Eddie Hearn claiming a rematch clause could be triggered to face Dubois a second time, although this idea has been rejected elsewhere.
Joshua has rejected suggestions he could retire from boxing, while Arum, 92, believes there is another Briton he could face after losing his long-awaited confrontation with Dubois.
Rejecting the notion that Joshua’s defeat was a one-time event for the two-time heavyweight champion, Arum said Fighting Hub TV: “You don’t have an evening off to be kicked out like this. I just think AJ has been through a lot of wars. I think it’s over for both him and (Deontay) Wilder. Maybe they could fight each other, that would be good.
Wilder has lost four of his last five fights, the last coming in June against Zhilei Zhang in Saudi Arabia, and has also lost to Joseph Parker and twice to Fury on either side of a victory over Robert Helenius.
His career is on the line, but most importantly, it’s not over yet. It wasn’t until December that he was promised a fight with Joshua if he defeated Parker.
He lost by unanimous decision and faced Zhang, who had defeated the former WBC heavyweight champion, but Arum believes a clash with Joshua would be very appropriate at this stage of their careers.
Matchroom Sport chairman Hearn did not rule out the possibility, despite the promoter insisting a rematch with Dubois was the “number one priority”.
“I told him (Joshua) yesterday: who knows, you have maybe one to three fights left,” Hearn said. Boxing news. “When I told him that, the phone went hushed, but it was the realization of where we were in his career. These will simply be the biggest fights possible.
“I don’t rule out Wilder or (Joe) Joyce, but I think AJ will want the biggest one. He is a warrior. His number one priority is a rematch with Daniel Dubois.”

Trainer Jake Paul’s brutal two-word response to Mike Tyson fight, video of which went viral

November 5, 2024Jake Paul’s trainer J’Leon Love has rejected the notion that his student will face former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson. The clash between the two teams will take place on November 15 at AT&T Stadium in Texas, with up to 90,000 fans expected to attend.
This fight will fulfill Paul’s three and a half year ambition. “The Problem Child,” as Paul is known, comes into this fight off the back of a win over former UFC star Mike Perry in July.
Since his professional debut in 2020, Paul has been fighting regularly in the boxing ring. In his tiny career, the newborn American scored victories over Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz, Tyron Woodley and Ben Askren.
With a record of 10-1, his only loss was a points defeat to Tommy Fury last year. On the eve of next week’s gala in Texas, “The Problem Child” posted a video on his official Instagram account in which he reveals how the idea to fight Tyson came about. While talking to Love, it seemed like Paul’s coach was completely against the potential matchup.
The video, which dates back to 2021, before his fight with Askren, shows the YouTuber-turned-boxer humorously hinting at the prospect of fighting “Iron Mike.” “I just had a crazy idea,” Paul said. “Do you think I could beat Mike Tyson?” Love can be seen laughing before replying, “—- no.”
Paul then questioned his coach’s advice, asking incredulously, “Even in a year?” Love, who has experience in the ring himself, emphasized the depth of Tyson’s skill, saying: “Mike Tyson just got a —-. He knows how to do it bro, it’s just…”
Paul, 27, agreed and nodded, saying: “Tyson is a dog,” and mused: “I was just thinking about Jake Paul fighting Mike Tyson? That would be fun.”
Paul’s fantasy fight is about to materialize next week. However, since the fight was announced, the influential boxer has been bombarded with criticism for agreeing to fight Tyson.
Dismissing skeptics, the newborn American recently defended his decision during an interview TODAYstating, “A lot of people wonder, ‘Jake, why are you doing this? Even if you beat him, they will say he is ancient.”
“But for me, Mike Tyson wanted to fight me. It’s an honor. He is one of the most famed boxers in the world who has ever done this. “It’s an honor and a dream come true to be there with someone of his character. It’s going to be a show on Netflix.”
Some fans are skeptical that “Iron Mike” will take his upcoming fight seriously after the sensational revelation. In an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, the 58-year-old boxing icon stated that she trains six hours every day.
“I train extremely challenging, I practice six hours a day. I start at 11 a.m. and can leave the gym at 5 p.m.,” Tyson revealed. A clearly surprised Kimmel replied, “Oh no. 11:00? So it’s six hours straight, is there a break for lunch?”
Tyson admitted that there was indeed a tiny pause, prompting a stunned Kimmel to exclaim, “Oh no.”

Published
6 hours agoon
November 5, 2024Jaron Ennis returns to his second straight fight at the Wells Fargo Center in his native Philadelphia, defending his IBF welterweight title against Ukrainian challenger Karen Chukhadzhian in a barely needed rematch of their original 2023 meeting.
Meanwhile, Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing promotes the Ennis vs. Chukhadzhian fight DAZN Broadcast the card on live TV around the world.
Ennis (32-0, 29 KO) is one of the hottest names in the sport as he owns one of the longest undefeated streaks in boxing, and “Boots” fought 21 straight fights without having to hear the final bell before facing Chukhadzhian for the title for the first time in January 2023
That night in Washington, the 27-year-old won every round and won the IBF interim title, although the guy gave a good account of his defeat by shoving Ennis away before suffering a crushing defeat.
From their clash, ‘Boots’ knocked out Roiman Villa within ten minutes before being promoted to full champion, where he made his first defense in July, forcing the tough David Avanesyan to retire after five rounds.
Chukhadzyan (24-2, 13 KO) has since regrouped with three straight wins and returned to being the mandatory challenger in the IBF, winning the Intercontinental title, which he defended in May in Germany on points over Harry Scarff.
Bam Rodriguez is back
The card sees another featherlight heavyweight star in action as Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez defends his WBC super flyweight title for the first time in his second term as champion, against former featherlight heavyweight champion Pedro Guevara (42-4-1, 22 KO).
Rodriguez (20-0, 13 KO) broke out in February 2022, quickly winning the WBC super flyweight title against Carlos Cuadras on the cards before making two defenses before returning to flyweight and winning the title last April WBO.
The 24-year-old added an IBF crown with a stunning ninth-round retirement victory over Clear Edwards last December, then returned to the top in June to face Juan Francisco Estrada for his vintage WBC super flyweight belt.
It was a thriller, with “Bam” underperforming in one card and evenly matched in another before landing punches that earned him a seventh-round stoppage.
He will now face former titlist Guevara, 35, who is the interim super flyweight champion following a split decision in Australia against Andrew Moloney in May.
Ford looks to be getting back into shape
In ten rounds Raymond Ford (15-1-1, 8 KO) is coming back after losing to Nick Ball and losing his world title, and before moving to the super featherweight category, he should score points with Orlando Gonzalez (23-2, 13 KO) for the first time.
Coe clashes with Gallegos
Khalil Coe (9-0-1, 7 KO) also sees action, and the featherlight heavyweight can win by stopping Manuel Gallegos (20-2-1, 17 KO), who was last stopped by Diego Pacheco in his fourth fight.

Undercard remaining
Undefeated super lightweight candidate Ernesto Mercado (16-0, 15 KO) can win again at the beginning of the fight, this time against Jesus Saracho (14-2-1, 11 KO).
The only fighter in the eighth round comes in the middleweight division, where Austin “Ammo” Williams (16-1, 11 KO) returns from a break against Hamzah Sheeraz in June and should get an early win over Gian Garrido (11-1, 8 KO). ).
There is also a six-round fight in which Ismail Muhammad (5-0, 3 KO) can stop Nelson Morales (5-18, 2 KO) in a welterweight fight.
In four rounds, Dennis Thompson (2-0, 1 KO) should get on the right track and win his super bantamweight fight against Edgar Ortiz Jr (8-5-2, 4 KO), and debutant Zaquin Moses can do the same against Michael Ruiz (1-4) at super featherweight.

Mike Tyson sold ‘monster animal worth $55,000’ pounds” after tearing someone’s arm off
Published
10 hours agoon
November 5, 2024Former world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson’s relationships have come and gone over the years, but his breakup with his tiger may be one of the most painful. This comes after the couple was forced to split up when the large cat in question “teared off someone’s arm.”
At one point, boxing king Tyson owned three Bengal tigers, but gave two to an animal shelter when he realized they required too much care. The remaining tiger, Kenya, remained with him for 16 years until a tragic accident led to their separation and the woman’s alleged loss of a limb.
‘Iron’ Mike – who is due to retire and fight Jake Paul on November 15 – reportedly bought the tiger for £55,000 when he was released from prison following his rape conviction in 1992. However, their bond came to an unfortunate end when a member of the public strangely decided to enter the enclosure in Kenya.
“I had a tiger, her name was Kenya and she weighed about 250 kilograms,” Tyson told GQ (via Mirror) in 2019. “I had great affection for her, I held her, I slept with her, I kept her in my room.
“She stayed with me. I had her for about 16 years. She was a huge monster, you couldn’t imagine her size. But she was too elderly and I had to get rid of her when her eyes and head deteriorated. Oh, and she ripped off someone’s arm.
Contrary to speculation that Kenya had escaped from her enclosure when the crash occurred, Tyson clarified that it was the woman who had entered the tiger’s territory. The boxing legend explained that the woman in question jumped over a fence to play with her cat before things took a turn for the worse.
Tyson also revealed that a seriously injured woman tried to sue him over the incident. However, the lawsuit was unsuccessful because she technically broke into a fence in Kenya.
Despite this, Tyson has explained in the past that he still paid out a significant amount of compensation. In an Instagram Live conversation with rapper Fat Joe in 2020, he said, “When I saw what the tiger did to her hand, I had a lot of money at the time, so I gave her $250,000, whatever it was, because she was just cursed.” ***** up.”
Tyson is now preparing to face Paul in the ring next Friday in his first professional fight since 2005. However, fans hope that their clash will not end with stern injuries to any of the players.
