Andy Cruz vs. Hironori Mishiro: IBF lithe eliminator emitted live on Dazn this Saturday

Promoter Eddie Hearn said he was disappointed in the fact that Keyshawn Davis moves to 140 because he would not fight with a slight pretender Andy Cruz. Hearn hoped that Keyshawn would face the Golden Olympic medalist 2020 Cruz (5-0, 2 KO) because of the “history” from which they fought four times with amateurs, and Andy Breeze to the 4-0 record.

The Olympic competition explained

Keyshawn left the weight last Friday for defending the title of his lithe title WBO against Edwin de Los Santos. Then he announced that he was already planning to go to a lithe welterweight immediately after the fight. This means that there is no chance Father-Syn congress Before two lithe. Most people think that Keyshawn will never fight Cruz again after losing him four times with amateurs and looking in the final of the Golden Olympic medal match in 2020.

Cruz is fighting Hironori Mishiro in the lithe title IBF Eliminator on Saturday, June 14, at the Times Square theater in Recent York. The event will be broadcast in Dazn, from 19:00 et/16:00 Cruz will be mandatory for IBF Lightweight Raymond Muratalla.

“My biggest disappointment when I heard that Keyshawn was rising, it was that he was not going to fight Andy Cruz,” said Eddie Hearn Fighthypme. “The point is that nobody will want to fight him. So what you have to do is make people fight him.

“Building the popularity of Cruza

Given the tardy Cruza Start as a professional because of his long amateur career in Cuba, Hearn must put him on Schedule 4 to 6 fights If he wants to augment his popularity quickly enough so that huge names in 135 want to fight him. Even if and when Cruz defeats the IBF Lightweight Raymond Muratalla champion, he will avoid him by the best fighters. Cruz must follow the early Gennada Golovkin plan to often augment its popularity. He collaborated with GGG and maybe also with Cruz, as long as Hearn can get the dates of fighting for him.

Cruz-Mishiro eliminator

“Now Andy and Keyshawn have such a great potential because of history. Fans want to see this fight and I thought we had a chance to fight,” said Hearn. “Fortunately, he is [Cruz] In the final eliminator [against Hironori Mishiro] This weekend, which will be mandatory [Raymond] Muratalla to fight for IBF [lightweight] World Championship title. So we’re in a great place. “

With the victory over Mishiro, Cruz will be mandatory for the IBF Muratalli master, but he will still have to wait at the request of the fight by the sanctioning body. It can last from 9 to 12 months. So you can expect Muratalla promoters in the highest rank to pull him out for a full 12 months to allow them to get a warrior to get two simple title defense against Cruz fight.

Muratalli’s chances of defeating Cruz are almost zero because he is too one -dimensional and he lacks the ability to compete with a talented Cuban. This will be one of Andy’s easier fights as a professional.

Cruz challenges Davis

“But Andy jokes that the real reason why Keyshawn moves is that he did not want to fight Andy Cruz, because this weekend he set up to fight with all great names for 135. So Andy Cruz is one of the best warriors in the world. This is a great fight with Mishiro this Saturday and we can’t wait for a great statement from him.

Keyshawn has already shown over the past two years that he has not been interested in fighting Cruz. He ignored Andy’s challenge to face him and repeatedly gained less objection. His latest selection of inactive #14 WBO Edwin de los Santos, who has not fought for two years, showed what he meant.

Keyshawn does not want to fight Cruz because he lost too many times in amateurs, walking 0-4. Davis says he is now a “businessman”, which translates into his choice and choice of opposition that he is 100% sure that he can beat.

Image: Bill Haney's NYC Scavenger Hunt: Is Teofimo Lopez Hiding Under a Rock?

Dziątowe Bill Haney was seen today, wandering the streets of Fresh York, looking for Teofimo Lopez to confront him for withdrawing from negotiations to fight his son Devin Haney.

Bill Haney’s hunt

Bill looked desperate in search of Teo. Bill wants this fight Teofimo. This payment day would be nice, but he and devin must go on.

It was a fight that Devin (32-0, 15 KO) had to get a great payment and regenerate his career sinking after impoverished performances. Lopez said he was worried that he had not received an forthright shock if he fought Devin. So he gave up the idea of ​​fighting him.

Losing about what would be a great payment for the fight against Teofimo leaves Haney in impoverished condition because he has no money for him. Teo was his last hope.

This week, Bill and Devin received bad news from Turk’s post Alalshikh on X, which has a novel policy for the events of the Riyadh season, who do not want “boxing matches of Tom and Jerry.” This message affects removals such as Haney. If Turki decides to avoid Devin from his events, he will be ruined. He will not get the same type of money elsewhere and will find a bulky life, dealing with the killers at the age of 147, like Shakhram Giyasov.

“I’m coming to Brooklyn and I’m looking for a teo and senior. I will see what you are afraid of,” said Bill Haney Fight Hub tvHunting at Teofimo Lopez to try to confront him for the decision to fight his son, Devin Haney. “I am looking for a teo and senior, and whoever is going on that they do it.”

Jaron “Boots” Ennis moves to 154 pounds after a welterweight struggle

Published

on

Image: Jaron 'Boots' Ennis Moving Up to 154 Pounds After Struggles Making Welterweight

Promoter Eddie Hearn says that the unified champion of welterweight Jaron “boots” ennis is “Moving” Until 154. A decision was made after his test team was made, which determined that Ennis (34-0, 30 KO) was worse due to his struggle with an incision of the 147 pounds department. Interrupted the division.

Hearn says that Ennis will fight in August or September, and he is open to the fight between him and the momentary WBC champion of the younger medium scale champion, Vergil Ortiz Jr. If not him, it will be someone else who fights in his debut at the age of 154.

Ennis shoes: 154-punting movement

Hearn says that Ennis was only “50%” for his unification with the WBA Eimantas Stanionis welterweight master on April 12. He thinks that when Jaron moved to 154, he will be 100%and the fans will be able to see if it is better.

“The shoes reach up. Unfortunately, after the fight Stanionis, he had his team, doctors, tests and what they basically say that the shoes are weaker to his abilities,” said Eddie Hearn Warrior. “You saw him during the Fight Week. It requires demanding work [to make 147]. “

Boxing fans have been noticing for some time when Ennis looked emaciated by weight, and they wanted him to move to 154 to take a larger name. In addition, there are no huge names in the welterweight ward. Masters in 147 that shoes must fight to complete their goal, which is unquestioned, would probably require a significant amount of money and it is not worth it.

“It is amazing that he did it Stanionis in 50% of his physical possibilities,” said Hearn. “What his team says and says. Sooner or later I do not say that you will get a moment of Keyshawn, but you can achieve worse results in the ring, have a nightmare, and this will simply catch up with you.”

Hearn seems elated that Ennis is planning to raise weight. Shoes does not make sense to stay at the age of 147 to continue to kill yourself, to earn weight, because she probably will not fight for the title of WBC against the winner of the fight Mario Barrios vs. Manny Pacquiao. Whoever emerges as the winner of this fight will avoid Ennis and focus on defending her against fighters such as Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia or Conor Benn.

“I love the fight Teo, just like shoes. But it was like:” Can I be the best of my skills at the age of 147, “said Hearn. “The answer is:” I can probably win good enough, but not the best I can. ” When you see shoes at the age of 154, you’ll see what I’m talking about. “

It sounds like Ennis was worried about losing to Teofimo. This is surprising, because the way he performed against Stanionis in April last year would be more than enough to defeat Lopez. Even this drained version of Ennis would be too huge for Teofimo.

“So it is very likely that these belts [IBF and WBA welterweight] They will be released – said Hearn. “We will meet this week and make the final decision. But yes, it’s time to go to 154, and he was united at 147. It’s time to try to become a world champion with two divisions.”

If the shoes do not leave their IBF and WBA welterweight titles, he regrets that he did not do it later, because, as I mentioned, he will not have the opportunity to fight for the last two other lanes. Popular fighters, Haney and Ryan Garcia, will not fight him. They know that they will lose.

“They said:” Would you fight Vergil Ortiz in August? “And we said,” Yes. ” And then they returned and said: “Vergil was not ready for August.” I said, “We are elated. We are talking to Daznie at the moment.

If Ortiz Jr. He is not ready to fight Ennis in August, he should go after the master Ibf Bakhram Murtazaliev or Master WBC Sebastian Formella.

“We want to be involved in all the biggest fights. Of course, he wants to win the world championship title and there is a good chance that Vergil can end up at this championship. Yes, yes, all for all the great fights with real physically 100% Ennis shoes, which is a terrifying proposition, given the performance he gave against Stanionis,” said Hearn.
