Hearing of Stevenson: The Padley Fight and the potential clash of Tank Davis
Published
2 months agoon

The lithe champion of WBC Shakur Stevenson has a lot of pressure on him to make him look impressive tonight, defeating Josh Padley in the Kingdom of the Arena in Riyadh. This is not someone who Shakur (22-0, 10 KO) can afford to fight if he doesn’t want to be ridiculed by fans More than he is already. If Shakur escapes from this guy today, it’s over. His career will never be the same.
Stevenson told Padley on Friday that he was going to beat his “A **” on Saturday. Now, if he escapes from Padley, as he did with a dozen his previous opponents, he will show fans what he meant.
What if he fails?
Realistically, Stevenson needs a knockout Padleya (15-0, 4 KO), to leave this fight without a violent inheritance. This is one of those fights in which you can’t gain anything, because Padley is not the best ten -level warrior. He is only a fighter at the British level who was chosen by his promoter Eddie Hearn. Shakur needs a knockout in six rounds to get out of this fight.
This fight is more crucial for Shakur, because Hearn wants to set up a “biggest fight in boxing” against Gervont Davis. He would look stupid, pressing this fight if Stevenson struggles tonight and strives for a tedious 12-round decision.
Hearn needs Shakur to look like 24 -carat gold against Josh, so that he can go to Turk Alalshikh and ask for assist in luring Davis’s tank to fight him. Without Turk, Hearn has no hope of combining this fight. He does not intend to empty the match boxing chest to come up with a cake to encourage Gervonta to Shakura in a fight, which probably will not cover the costs.
Shakur is not a draw of PPV, and Tank had only one fight during his 12-year career against Ryan Garcia. Fans who bought the event were probably 12 -meter Observers Ryan on Instagram. Shakur is not popular in social media, such as Ryan.
That is why it is crucial that Shakur looks great tonight. He is a smaller warrior who is expected to be destroyed if it is worthy of sharing the ring with the tank. Of course, Shakur is not what Hearn says. There is no pound for pounds No. 1 or one of the best fighters in sport. He is only a defensive guy, and 90% of his game is a defense, and only 10% is images.
That Hearn would sign Shakur on only a contract for two fights. I would do the same. I would sign Shakura for a miniature contract, adapt him to the opposition’s down to make him look good, and then press tank fights tough. There I would direct profit. After Shakur lost this fight, I would sign it again because it will be disclosed and the reconstruction would cost him too much money.

The downside of the espinoosis performance is that it will probably make it even more avoided than already at the age of 126. He is not wanted by other featherweight masters or the best rivals. In addition, when Nayya Inoue ultimately rises with Super Bantamweight, it is unlikely to fight espinosis. It is unrealistic to assume that he will want to fight him because of the last two performances against Vazquez and former master WBO Robeisa Ramirez.
“I knew he was a great opponent. I knew he would come to fight. And that’s good, because it allowed me to show more of my possibilities,” said Rafael Espinosis after the fight. “This is a kind of fight that people like to watch. And I like it too. People deserve this kind of fighting

Last weekend in Boxing was emphasized by three enormous cards – Friday at Modern York Times Square; Saturday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; And Sunday in Las Vegas. There were six fights for the title and two for the undisputed championship. However, not all warriors acted as expected.
Ryan Garcia (24-2-1 NC, 20 KO), fighting for the first time since his year-round suspension for a positive testing for the forbidden substance in April last year, lost his unanimous decision about Rolando “Rolly” Romero in the Friday main event. Garcia landed 66 blows, not connecting in over nine attempts in all 12 rounds. The competition concerned the empty “ordinary” welterweight title.
Earlier that night, Teofimo Lopez (22-1, 13 KO) defended his semi-edited weight WBO with a dominant performance against Arnold Barboz Jr. (32-1, 11 KO). Lopez looked like his aged self in Modern York, and his speed and excellent leg work were too high for Barboza to overcome.
The unquestioned master of lightweight Devin Haney (32-0-1 NC, 15 KO) made a unanimous decision about the former Jose Ramirez welterweight title owner (29-3, 18 KO). Haney landed only 70 blows in 12 rounds, but Ramirez was worse, he landed 40. In six rounds Ramirez only two blows landed.
On Saturday, Canelo Alvarez (63-2-2, 39 KO) defeated William Scull (23-1, 9 KO) by a unanimous decision to regain the unquestionable championships of super medium weight. Both fighters merged with the landing of 111 stamps (56 for Canelo, 55 for SCULL). Both of them also joined to throw 445 blows, which is the smallest attempt in a 12-round fight since Compubox began to follow the Stat 40 years ago.
Things improved on Sunday. The undisputed junior champion of Nayy Inoue (30-0, 27 KO) and President Ramon Cardenas (26-2, 14 KO) placed one of the best fights of the year. Inoue fell in round 2, but he recovered to stop Cardenas in the eighth round. Inoue landed 176 blows in battle. To compare, Canelo, Garcia and Haney landed 182 stamps together.
In the Co-Main event, Rafael Espinosis (27-0, 23 KO) defended his title Pen-Piór in the seventh round of Edward Vazquez (17-3, 4 Kos). It was another flawless performance of the highest featherweight master in boxing history (6 feet-1).
Andreas Hale looks at the best warriors to compete this weekend and evaluates his performances.
Friday report card
Teofimo Lopez: B
In the first of the triple fights Times Square saw that Lopez was thoroughly deleted previously undeniable Barboza. The “takeover” was better than Barboza in every aspect of the game and was the only warrior in Modern York who understood the allocation of entertainment while working on victory. He did not approach Barbozy, but he tried to make this program as best as possible. When he is chosen, Lopez is easily one of the most complete fighters in the world. Could he bear a better chance of spending barbose featherlight? Radiant. But he did the work against the top of the rival, and the winnings are the most crucial.
Devin Haney: D+
Haney won the fight against Ramirez, but he didn’t do much to erase the memories of fans who remember that he was plundered by Garcia’s left hooks last year. He fought as if he had the persistent effects of Garcia’s beating, the ring was constantly circulating and throwing 229 blows disappointing. Although Haney is talented, it was a performance that he should forget sooner than later. It is physically too good for this. But if he does not believe in himself, his performances will continue to suffer and subject to public control.
Rolando “Rolly” Romero: C
The fight, which seemed that she would not need the involvement of judges, ended in distance. But Romero, who has never been known for his defensive bravery, deserves to be recognized as a completely neutralizing the Garcia’s left hook. He also changed the fight route, putting off Garcia with a double left hook in the second round. It was not an electrifying fight against the imagination, but Rolly caused stern nervousness, disturbed the plans of the Garcii-Haney rematch and put himself a stern fight in the next case.
Ryan Garcia: f
0:44
Like Ryan Garcia suffered a defeat at Times Square
Ryan Garcia is easily beaten by Rolando Romero to leave hope for Devin Haney’s rematch in Tatters.
Simply put, Garcia blew it up. With so many questions after his unsuccessful drug test transformed a brilliant decision against Haney into a lack of failure, Garcia had a chance to buy back and prove that Peds did not support him last year. Instead, he was flat and lethargy and allowed Ostrovort to put it on canvas and an advantage. No respect for Romero, but Garcia had a perfect opponent with whom you can provide fireworks. Instead, it stood out when the lights were the brightest. He did nothing to prove that he should face Haney in a rematch. His future as a star is threatened if he does not find a way to reverse her.
Saturday report card
Canelo Alvarez: D.
Canelo did not get f because his opponent was not interested in trying to win. Despite this, throwing fatal 152 blows in a 12-round fight, like Canelo, is unforgivable. He may rightly blame Scull for not involved, but must accept responsibility for very little possibilities – especially when it was clear that SCULL cannot hurt him. We have not seen a Vintage Canelo performance for a long time. I hope that he ends with his September fight against Terenka Crawford.
William Scull: F-
It was a disgusting performance of Scull in his biggest fight in his career. Few knew who they were going in the fight against Canelo, and now everyone will want to forget about his name after the performance in which you do not want to get involved. Between his 12 dance rounds and the occasional complaint that Canelo’s blows were low – although they were clearly above the belt line – Scull made himself a negative description. If we are lucky, we won’t see him again.
Sunday report card
Rafael espinosis: r+
1:47
Rafael Espinosis dominates Edward Vazquez from TKO to stop the belt
Rafael Espinosis confirms too much to Edward Vazquez because he earns TKO in the seventh round to keep his title WBO Feather Wweight.
Espinosis has done everything in his power to prove that Sunday in Las Vegas will be a different experience than what happened on Friday at Times Square and Saturday in Saudi Arabia. He set a crazy pace with a resistant Vazquez, collecting points, using its significant height and achieving the advantage. In the third round he threw more blows than Canelo, Haney and Garcia joined in their 12-rounds. Espinosis negates his physical advantages by fighting inside, but he is undoubtedly an electrifying warrior to watch.
Naola Inunao: A
Inoue saved boxing from a terribly disappointing weekend, providing an unforgettable fight full of drama and emotions towards Ramon Cardenas. Inoue had sufficient susceptibility to cause tension when he was dropped in the second round, and then raised the pressure to ensure a cruel finish in the eighth round. Inoue is not only one of the best pound fighters in boxing, he is one of the most electrifying.
Ramon Cardenas: B
It is often petty to say that a warrior can win, even when he loses, but that’s exactly what Cardenas did in his electrifying duel with Inoue. Unlike most other pages B this weekend, Cardenas won. Although he would eventually be overwhelmed by Inoue’s power and combination, he became the second warrior who put the Japanese superstar on canvas and for a moment the world asks if he would be able to cause great nervousness. Even when it seemed that it would consist, Cardenas refused to withdraw and came out swinging. Nobody gained more up-to-date boxes in boxing than Cardenas this weekend.

Bag dropped: Bad performances of Garcia and Haney threaten the lucrative revenge
Published

May 5, 2025
The status of a rematch between Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney is unclear after Ryan’s defeat against Rolando Romero “Romero” and the terribly bad performance of Haney in victory over Jose Ramirez last Friday at the Times Square event in Modern York on May 2.
Turki Alalshikh did not confirm if the Garcia vs. rematch plans. Haney 2 are still there in October in Riyadh. However, the terrible performances of both hurt fans seeing the second fight. Perhaps they will have to buy back against other warriors, preferably high -level pretenders.
Doubtfully rematch
This will require Garcia to avenge his loss in Rolly or defeat one of the champions at the age of 147, such as Jaron Ennis or Brian Norman Jr., as in the case of Haneya, he should also be put on with a stone killer. His performance in victory over Jose Ramirez was so feeble that his reserves fell even more. Turki must throw Haney with one of these sharks in the final fight from the ground:
– Jaron Ennis
– Brian Norman Jr.
– Conor Benn
– Gary Antuanne Russell
– Richardson Hitchins
Promoter Eddie Hearn says Ryan and Haney “I dropped the bag” Without meeting in your fights. It reveals that Garcia (24-2, 20 KO) and Haney (32-0, 15 KO) were to be “directed” in the ring after the fighting to start promoting their great rematch in October in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. What has not happened that suggests that Turks Alalshikh may decide not to go with their plans for the Garcia-Haney 2 rematch.
They both had to win the fights to block in the October rematch. Although Haney performed his role, defeating Ramirez, he was shy and threw only 224 hitting the entire 12-round fight. Haney landed 70, but he looked afraid to stand and fight. Commenator Tim Bradley says he thinks Devin has PTSD He took against Ryan Garcia last April 20 in Brooklyn, Modern York.
Ryan was knocked down in the second round by a ponderous Romero (17-2, 13 KO) and surprisingly passed through the rest of the road, a 12-round unanimous lost decision of the results 115-112, 118-109 and 115-112.
Nerves and inaction
“Ryan and Devin dropped the bag in the largest drop of the bag you’ve ever seen,” said Eddie Hearn WarriorResponding to the terrible performances of Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney last Friday evening at Times Square, Modern York.
Hearn is right. Both Haney and Garcia gave the chance to get golden frosty, tough cash thanks to the terrible performance last Friday evening. Both were equally penniless and there is no way on earth so that Turks could put them in a rematch and be well received by boxeries.
“Tonight was to be directed at a great rematch,” Hearn continued. “Proverbs to Rolly, but Ryan simply did not appear at all. He did not try to win the fight or he? I know he was buzzed early, but it wasn’t really tough to knock down. But he just let the fight passed. It’s crazy.”
It seemed that Kingry lost his nerves after Rolly dropped him in the second round and after that she did not dare to get involved. You can understand why. Romero looked like Julian Jackson 2.0 in this fight and hit the holes in Ryan with each shot.
“It was all right,” said Hearn, asked what he thought about Haney’s performance against Jose Ramirez. “I told him,” You really had to keep your feet a little more. He was raining Ramirez a few times, but I think there was a lot of nerves. I think he is [Haney] He was out of year. Ryan is also not a year aged. Inactivity kills. We saw it tonight. “
What does Hearn talk about? Haney was not “fine” with his performance against Ramirrez. He was even worse than Ryan, because he looked 100% terrified and escaped from the battlefield. When fans see such warriors, they perceive it as a elementary cowardice. This is the only way to interpret.
Haney looked like a jump like War veteran with shockYou can’t deal with stressful events without a mental lecture. This loss with Ryan Garcia took something from Haney, leaving the shell that the fans saw against Ramirez.
