WBO Master of Pentecost, Rafael “El Divino” Espinoza (26-0, 22 KO), will defend against Edward Vazquez (17-2, 4 Kos) on the Nayya Inoue vs. card Ramon Cardenas on Sunday, May 4 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Vazquez has two narrow defeats in the fighting, which he approached winning with Raymond Ford and Joe Cordina. Many Vazquez fans defeated Cordina in the fight on November 4, 2023 in Monte Carlo, but the judges believed that the British warrior had done enough.
Espinosis vs. Vazquez is a good enough fight to be the main event on this card, because it is more competitive on paper than Headliner Inoue-Cardenas. This is a mismatch.
The advantage of Rafael
Espinosis 6’1 ″ descends from the sixth round of arrest the injury of the former WBO champion of 126-pound Robeisa Ramirez on December 7 last year. This was the second win of Espinosis with two -time gold Olympic medalist Robeisia and a signal that it is simply too good for Cuban talent.
Vazquez, 5’7 ″, he will have to come up with a way to deal with the height of a stork -like espinosis, because it will be bombed if he is not able to find a strategy. His lack of impact strength will make it harder because he would need to beat a much higher master. It is not that espinosis uses its height to fight outside.
What makes him so tough is his long arms and the way his loops are shot, which makes it tough to see them. Espinosis also has a high work rate, which causes even greater difficulties. However, he can be wounded, as we saw in his first fight with Robeis, when he was dropped slow in the fifth round. He was saved from knocking out the round ending.
“Rafael Espinosis is a high featherweight with power and skills to be the world champion for many years, and we are glad that we can present him on such a significant weekend for Mexican boxing,” said Bob Arum promoter, “Edward Vazquez is a tough, determined claimant who knows that he is his shot. Fans at the T-Mobile Arena are waiting for pleasure, because espinosis divides the spotlight lightweight with the incomparable Nayy Inoue on this historic Cinco de Mayo card. “

Hearn on Williams Ammunition
“Great preparation, it was a difference. Sometimes the preparation was heated and icy. This time he is right – said Eddie Hearn Boxing DAZNTalking about Austin “Ammo” by Williams. “He still has a world -class opponent Patrice Volny.
“It’s a very, very challenging fight, it’s a great fight. It is a kind of fight that proves that it is ready to go and fight for the world championship in the medium science division. He is a great figure. This is an amazing story, and he has everything, but he has to win tomorrow evening in a challenging fight. It will be very good.

Jadier Herrera (16-0, 14 KO) called today the WBC Delicate Wweight Shakur Stevenson champion, demanding “Send a contract” to fight. 22 -year -old Herrera told Shakur to stop “running, I’m going for you.

Herrera occupies 10 WBC No. 10, and has recently been handed over to the electrician Josh Padley Shakura’s fight last month on the Riyadh card on February 22. It was a clear example of working with Stevenson’s duck and his promoter, Eddie Hearna, choosing Padley rather than Jadier. They crashed with the ajar Herreca and returned to bite them in the ass when Shakur tried to defeat Padley.
If he chose Herrera, he would look like a hero, trying to avoid huge bombs that would drop him all night. It probably wouldn’t end it well for Shakur, but at least he would show courage before leaving. The last time Stevenson lost in Kuban at the 2016 Olympic Games, when Robeisy Ramirez Defeat him, leaving it later. Jadier is a more powerful version of Robeisa.
“Stop running”
Dev Sahni: “If this is Shakur Stevenson, I wonder. Do you have a message for the future? “Sahni asked Queensberry About a slight pretender, Jadier Herrera, a arduous champion WBC 135-LB, Shakur Stevenson.
Herrera cores: “Listen, don’t run anymore. Send me a contract. Time is coming. Send me a contract. I’m going for you. Time is coming. Don’t run anymore. I’m here. I know people. My name is Herrera. I’m going for you. Send me a contract, okay? I am waiting for my time. Listen, Shakur. Send me a contract. Let’s fight. I’m not here to play. “
Herrera was one of the fighters considered Stevenson after his originally planned opponent, Floyd Schofield, withdrew from this event with a sudden disease. Instead of choosing a talented Cuban, Jadier Herrera, Shakur and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, they played safely, using Padley’s lithe, which was a terrible fight. Shakur looked terrible, beating a guy without power that lasted longer than he should have given him marginal skills.
Herrera is fighting Jose Macias Enriquez (21-3-2, 8 KO) in a 10-round fight on Saturday, March 15 at Undercard of Nick Ball vs. TJ Doheny on M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool, England.
Glass risk of hands
I hate to say this, but Jadier is wrong to make Shakur and understandable why he and his promoter Eddie Hearn, avoided him like a scourge. The Cuban has a power of one impact in both hands, and the size, which gives Stevenson huge problems.
Shakura glass hands He would stop him for Herrera’s grace, because in order to have a chance against him, Herrera cuts off the ring too well and imprisoned his compatriot from Newark in a fight.

Lawrence Okolie withdrew from the fight in bulky weight with Richard Riakporhe with a card injury on April 5 on Dazn on a live cooperative in Manchester, England. Promoters of RiAkPorhe cruise gauge (17-1, 13 KO) are now to try to fight with replacing less than a month.
Replacement hunt
The ring reports that the 32-year-old mutilation was wounded to fight Riakporhe. There is, of course, a lot of bulky weight that can enter to fill this place, but many of them would overcome RiAkporhe, which is not ideal for his promoters.
If it is not too overdue, the promoters of the event should apply Riakporhe as an opponent Joe Joyce in the main event. They have already got Filip Hrgovic As an opponent of Joyce, but this is a terrible duel “The Juggernaut”. Hrgovic has too much talent.
Riakporhe is more Joyce’s ally and would give him a better chance of winning. When it comes to the reconstruction of Joyce, the apply of Hrgovic is a bad direction. I wouldn’t do it if I was his promoter.
Restrictions on the environment
Career okolie looks like it doesn’t go. It is not cut out for the heavyweight division. When he melted to the circuitous weight to fight with much smaller guys, he was in an ideal situation to succeed because of his advantage of greatness in historically penniless division. But now, when okolie is bulky, his professional situation looks beyond gloomy.
Even when his promoter made careful, he doesn’t beat anyone good and probably falls apart if he is put on with a decent heavyweight. 32 is not antique, but okolie does not have enough time to transform into a warrior capable of competing with lions in the division. His beating in the scale of the circuit house Chris Billiam-Smith In 2023 he showed his restrictions as a warrior.
Okolie should forget about the fight in bulky weight and return to the circuitous weight. You can’t connect okolie with anyone worth your salt in heavyweight and expect it to win. He is too clumsy and uncoordinated.
