Gary Antuanne Russell WBA title

At the Tank vs Roach Cow-Main Gary Antuanne Russell (18-1, 17 KO) event, he led a unanimous 12-round decision to win his first world championship, Dethroning, which is developed, world champion José “Rayo” Valenzuela (14-3, 9 KO).

28-year-old Russell admitted that he feels offended by Valenzuela, the claim that he was not “anything special” and, as promised, he left the bell opening at speed, power in both hands and inexorable pressure, which allowed him to dominate this action, while effectively withdrawing Walenzuela in return.

After five clear rounds, so that Russell began the action, the Valenzuela corner asked him to raise aggression after the sixth round, but the attempt to start the 25-year-old to start subsequent exchanges made him briefly stunned by the Russell’s hook from Russell at the end of the seventh.

It seemed that the left right combination stunned Valenzuela in the eighth round and lost his right eye.

Russell appeared in the ninth round, when he gave Valenzuela around the ring with both hands in Stanza and obtained it 20-4 in power. The ring doctor decided to take a look at the master before the start of round 10 and again before rounds 11 and 12.

Robert Garcia’s coach Robert Garcia begged him not to go out to the final round, but now the developed master refused. I must admit that Valenzuela could send a Russell mouthpiece flying with a hook in the last frame.

Russell overwhelmed Valenzuela, throwing 957 blows and landing 252. Russell on average threw 80 blows and 21 blows landed on the round. Valenzuela reached an average of 37 and 11. Valenzuela was never in battle, which reflects the results of the judges: 119-109, 119-109 and 120-108-all for Russell.

“I want to thank God,” Russell said after the fight. “It’s a compact jump. I’m going for the rest of the belts. I love you to support us. Thank you for making this arena a great arena. I did it for DC and my family. We do the next! “

When asked about the mystery of his success, Russell said: “The principle in my profession is that you have to follow the instructions. My brother always told me, the difference between great and good is all or centimeters and the ability to produce, because it requires. “

Russell, referring to naming nothing special, claimed that the perceived clock added more fuel to the fire. “It motivated me a lot,” he said. “You must be dominant in this sport. You must have a mentality that is scratchy and he led me. I had the right dance partner in front of me and I am glad that he gave me the opportunity. I told him to keep the same energy because I bring it to the ring.

“My father would be proud of me,” he concluded. “This is Steppingstone. This is a marathon. In the marathon you will come across a table with water, but it’s only pitstop so that you can go to the next one. I’m going! “

“It was just not my night,” Valenzuela said disappointed. “His speed reached me a little and I was tardy on my feet. Without excuses, I have to make corrections. I have to go back to the drawing board now, get out of the stronger one and bounce back as I know. “

The Pay-Per-View action meant that the WBC World Super Lightweight Alberto “La Avispa” Puello (24-0, 10 KO) of the Dominican Republic defended his title with a close 12-round decision divided by Spanish Sandor Martin (42-4, 15 KO).

Martin immediately began the battle of All-Southpaw, moving forward, exerting pressure and was able to land a few effective blows on the head and body of the invincible master.

31-year-old Martin complained to coach Rafael Martin that after the second round he saw twice from his right eye, but seemingly without any obstacles, he fired prolonged dams of difficult blows in an thrilling third round.

Usually a challenging stylistic puzzle to be solved, Puello was able to land from time to time against Martin, but he still seemed uncomfortable with the free Spaniard’s aggression and effective defense for most of the central rounds.

By making corrections, 30-year-old Puello began to feel greater success in the eighth round, landing on edged counterattacks and allowing his hands to ride more often with swift combinations on slowly disappearing Martin. It seemed that Puello wounded Martin left to the body in round 11.

Martin suffered a cut on his right eye during a strictly questioned final round, finally captured in favor of Puello by all three judges.

In the fight for a strictly fighting competition, veterans were separated by three or less blows in nine out of twelve rounds. Puello landed 36 more stabs than Martin, while Martin landed 48 more power blows than Puello. Martin had 86-43 edges in body blows. One judge fired 115-113 for Martin, while the other two judges won the fight 115-113 and 116-112 for Puello.

Opening Pay-Per-View, the rapidly developing Cuban slothful Yoenis “El Bandolero” Tellez (10-0, 7 Kos), showed the patience and opinion of a veteran, dominating, former champion of super shrimp World World, Julian “J rock” Williams (29-5-1, 17 Kos), unambiguous, unambiguous decision in Interim, unambiguous decision in Interim, unambiguous decision in Interim, unambiguous decision in interim Wba.

A more experienced 34-year-old Williams was able to suppress a significant part of the crime of his 24-year-old enemy, especially in the first half of the fight, using continuous movement and choosing his place, but could not gather enough his own crimes to sway the momentum.

The unusual Tellez raised the pressure starting in the seventh round and was able to lose Williams’s face with hooks and upper, while sinking a few hooks to the body. Williams was cut on the left in the third round and was forced to visit the ring to check his face damage before the 11th round.

Williams, who left the 13-month release, fought competitively and never seemed seriously hurt, but Tellez defeated him in every category of statistics followed by Compubox.

Tellez combined 30% of his stabs and 44% of his blows, limiting Williams to connecting 27% of his blows. Tellez also landed 47 more blows than Williams.

The judges fired a fight 118-110, 117-111 and 119-109-all for Tellez.

Preceding the Pay-Per-View, three fighting PBC on the basic pre-video set was crowned with a 10-round fight with an average weight, which could be the final performance of the 34-year-old former master of the super-medium World World Super World Pundeight, Jarrett “Swift” Hurd (25-4-1, 17-1, 17 Kos) with Accokeek, MD Manotas ”González (36-4, 34 KO).

Using the Roughhouse Tactics and finding repeated successes with a powerful looped right hand, González went through and thickened in most rounds. Hurd began to complain early that Gonzalez was leading with his head, and Judge Charlie Fitch was convinced to release a powerful warning for González in the seventh round. However, Hurd seemed not to have reflexes needed to effectively answer the opponent.

The results were 96-94 and 98-92 for González, which annulled the decision of the remaining judge in the amount of 96-94 in favor of Hurd.

“Listen to man, God is good and both warriors have become robust,” Hurd said, fighting tears after the fight. “It was my first time when fighting someone with three arms, but I’m a man of my word. It will be the last time everyone will see me. Thank you for love and support. I had a great career. “

In a six-time battle in a welterweight between unbeatable perspectives, 19-year-old David “The Bodysnatcher” Whitmire (9-0, 6 KO) won with a clear, but competitive, unanimous decision over the 22-year-old “Mactete” Muñoz (7-1, 5 Kos), when all the three referee won the fight 60-54 in In the vigorous battle, the couple threw over 800 connected blows. However, Whitmire used a three-inch advantage for the body, an educated stab and powerful two-handed Salvos to control the action.

Starting live broadcast, the invincible Deric “Scooter” Davis (6-0, 6 KO) showed his power, turning Jamal Johnson (2-1, 1 KO) in the first round. The 22-year-old from Fort Washington, MD, dropped the invincible, but Outgunsed, Johnson twice with edged left hooks in the opening round, and the second knocking was enough to convince judge Ricky Gonzalez to stop the fight at 1:56.

The event was promoted by GTD promotions and TGB promotions.

IBF gives Moses Itauma a shot at the world title – fighting Hrgovic no longer makes sense

Published

on

Moses Itauma was given a direct path to the IBF heavyweight title, leaving Queensberry with one obvious question: Why risk it all against Filip Hrgovic?

In a statement sent to World Boxing News, the International Boxing Federation confirmed that it had received official notice on June 26 of Oleksandr Usyk’s resignation as IBF heavyweight champion.

Under championship rules, the governing body ordered top-ranked Frank Sanchez to negotiate with number three contender Moses Itauma for the vacant title. Both have until July 29 to reach an agreement.

Immediately, Hrgovic became an unnecessary obstacle to Itauma’s path to the world title.

When Itauma agreed to face Hrgovic on August 29 at The O2 in London, it was the perfect step for one of boxing’s brightest adolescent heavyweights.

This equation has completely changed.

IBF pays tribute to Usyk

In a statement provided to WBN, the IBF also confirmed Usyk’s reign before confirming the order.

“Over the course of his distinguished career, Usyk has established himself as one of the sport’s elite competitors, and the IBF is honored to recognize him as one of its world champions.

“His talent and commitment to excellence have made a lasting impact on boxing and will continue to inspire future generations of fighters.

“The IBF wishes Oleksandr Usyk continued success in his future endeavors.”

Only after paying tribute to the former champion did the IBF officially order Sanchez and Itauma to negotiate for the vacant world title.

This is an opportunity that many contenders have been chasing for years. Itauma immediately received this opportunity.

Hrgović’s fight no longer makes sense

When Queensberry announced the fight with Hrgovic, promoter Frank Warren described it as a “litmus test” that Itauma was ready for, while DAZN described it as a key fight with world title implications.

These consequences have now become a reality.

No one doubts Itauma’s willingness to fight anyone. He signed a contract with Hrgovic before the world title unexpectedly landed on the table. This is a completely different situation.

Hrgovic remains one of the most perilous heavyweight contenders despite suffering only one loss to Daniel Dubois. Since then, the Croatian has regained momentum with victories over Joe Joyce, David Adeleye and Dave Allen, which put him back among the top contenders in the division.

If an agreement can be reached, the obvious solution would be to replace Hrgović with Sanchez on August 29 in exchange for the vacant IBF heavyweight title.

As compensation, Hrgovic could get the first shot at the recent champion if Itauma defeats Sanchez.

Whether this proves possible depends on whether all involved are willing to restructure the contracts already in place.

The heavyweight story still beckons

The change would also support Itauma in its historic mission, which has already missed one goal.

Itauma’s dream of breaking Mike Tyson’s record as the youngest heavyweight champion is gone, but another goal remains within reach.

If the 21-year-old wins the vacant IBF title before October, he will overtake Floyd Patterson to become the second-youngest heavyweight champion in history.

If he waits until the match against Hrgovic, this chance will be gone forever.

Queensberry matched Itauma with Hrgovic because it seemed like the quickest path to a chance at the championship.

The IBF has now given them an even faster fight.

Unless Hrgovic’s contract can no longer be salvaged, Queensberry should exhaust all options to hire Sanchez instead.

The IBF unexpectedly gave Itauma a world title shot and a chance to become the second-youngest heavyweight champion in history.

It would be arduous to justify giving up this opportunity in favor of unnecessary risk.

Lennox Lewis ‘admitted’ he should have had one more defeat to former heavyweight champion on his record: ‘You won’

Lennox Lewis ‘admitted’ he should’ve had one more loss on his record to former heavyweight champion: “You won”

The former world champion claims Lennox Lewis once admitted he should have retired after three defeats in his professional career.

“The Lion” is considered one of the greatest heavyweights of all time. He retired in 2003 after avenging his only two losses to Oliver McCall and Hasim Rahman.

Lewis also had a successful rematch with Evander Holyfield, who somehow managed to do so defended his world titles after a controversial draw in their first meeting.

However, later that year in 1999, Lewis managed to become the undisputed heavyweight champion after winning by unanimous decision, maintaining his lineal status until his retirement following a sixth-round victory over Vitali Klitschko.

However, already in 1996, many believed that the Briton should have suffered another defeat, this time to Ray Mercer, who had briefly held the WBO title in 1991.

The American eventually vacated the belt and was defeated by Larry Holmes the following year before losing a 10-round unanimous decision to Holyfield in 1995.

“Merciless” then faced Lewis in a battle between two Olympic gold medalists, this time suffering a highly controversial defeat by a 10-round majority.

I’m talking to James SlaterMercer insisted that even Lewis doubted he deserved to win their competition.

“Yeah, I won that fight, man. He admitted it to me. He knows, a fighter knows. I won that fight. He told me, ‘I know you’re going to win.’ I told him, ‘Where’s my half of your check!’

“He said OK. Every time I see him, I tell him I’m still waiting! They were preparing him for the fight [Mike] Tyson. That’s what happened and that’s why they gave him the win.

As it happened, Lewis didn’t face Mike Tyson until 2002, when he secured victory after the eighth round.

Instead, after the controversy with Mercer, there was a rematch with McCall, whom he stopped for the WBC title.

on

As announced by the promoters, Moses Itauma will face Filip Hrgovic at The O2 in London on Saturday, August 29, in a heavyweight fight scheduled to be broadcast live on DAZN on pay-per-view.

Itauma, 21, is undefeated at 14-0, has 12 knockouts and holds the WBO Intercontinental, WBA International and Commonwealth titles. His last fight was in March, when he defeated American Jermaine Franklin in the fifth round at the Co-op Live gala in Manchester. This fight was his longest since 2023; several of his recent wins have come in the opening round, including stoppages of Dillian Whyte and Demsey McKean.

Hrgovic, 34, of Croatia, has a record of 20-1, 15 knockouts and a bronze medal at the 2016 Olympics. He previously held first place in the IBF ranking. In May he stopped Dave Allen in the third round at Doncasterand his third victory in a row. The escape came after his defeat to Daniel Dubois in June 2024, the only defeat of his career, which saw him overtake David Adeleye and Joe Joyce.

Hrgovic is the most experienced opponent Itauma has faced as a professional. He was stopped once in 21 fights and faced several world-class heavyweights.

“This has all the hallmarks of a classic heavyweight showdown and we were determined to see it through to the end,” said promoter Frank Warren. “This fight is the litmus test that Moses is ready for and it is the one he wanted. Filip believes it will be too much, too soon for the adolescent star. On August 29 at The O2 we will find out what will be another amazing night for British boxing.”
