Women’s boxing rankings for pounds for pounds: Mayer is rising, Price debuts in the top ten
Published
7 days agoon

Mikaela Mayer continues climbing in the ESPN rankings for pounds for pounds, and Lauren Price debuted in the top ten after impressive victories.
Mayer (21-2, 5 KO) defeated Sandy Ryan on Saturday to keep the WBO welterweight title, a rematch of their controversial fight with September, which Mayer decided to decide the majority. This time Mayer dominated most of the rounds and won through the results cards 98-92, 97-93 and 97-93.
“I wanted to give Sandy Rematch because [the first time] It was a great fight. This justified the rematch: “Mayer said after the victory.” Then I think that the rematch should happen when fans want it when it is justified. We did it, but I beat Sandy twice. Now it’s time to go and go for the undisputed, i.e. Lauren Price.
Price (9-0, 2 KO), WBC Master, IBF and WBA Wawerteright, united all three lanes, breaking the former master Natasha Jonas on March 7. Jonas defeated Mayer with a divided decision in January 2024.
The unanimous victory of Price over Jonas was undisputed, winning each round in one of the referees results cards (100-90, 98-92 and 98-93). The fight between Mayer and Price would crowned the first undisputed welterweight master since Jessica McCaskill in 2022.
Together with the victories, Mayer moves one place to 6, while Price enters the rankings at number 7. Savannah Marshall has been removed to be in no activity.

Amanda Serrano, Katie Taylor in adversity in over 3-minute rounds for the third fight
Published
7 minutes agoon
April 10, 2025
Up-to-date York – when they go on the third fight, Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor found something to fight.
The estimated competition changed on Wednesday in connection with the claim of Serrano that the undisputed 140-Funt master withdrew from the agreement on organizing a match of July 11 in 12 three minutes of rounds, just like the match of the men’s championship.
Both narrow victories of Taylor over Serrano appeared in the fighting with 10 rounds, which had two minutes, standard for women in boxing. But Serrano fought with other last duels in a longer format and said that Taylor agreed that he would do it back to Madison Square Garden, the place of their first fight.
“First of all, we shook it,” said Serrano during the first press conference, repeating what she said in a press release, announcing the fight. “She disagreed when we went to sign the contract.”
Taylor first recalled three minutes of rounds, when he was still in the ring after the victory in the second fight in November last year at Undercard of Jake Paul over Mike Tyson, saying that he believed that they have agreed to this for the next duel.
The Olympic gold medalist from Ireland in 2012 said on Wednesday that he was open to the idea, but would not allow anything to be a pretender’s choice.
“Regardless of this, I think that, as a rule, that the claimant should not dictate the conditions of the fight,” said Taylor. “I have 2-0 here and I am in the driver’s place and this is only true. At the end of the day, Amanda needs this fight much more than I do. I have a long history of great fights with massive names and a line of people in a queue to fight me for a payout day.”
Then Serrano interrupted to repeat that Taylor shook the contract, saying: “And if you say that you call arrows, you could call shots that day. You shouldn’t shake my hand.
“You know that if you have an extra minute, it won’t go your way,” said Serrano.
Serrano had Taylor in trouble in the fifth round of his first fight and immediately killed the bat. Perhaps she could finish her job and leave her judges with an additional minutes to continue the assault.
The seven -person master is so believing in three minutes round that she has left the version of WBC of its featherweight titles, because the organization would not allow them to question their women’s belt. Taylor would have to do the same for this duel.
“So if it’s her choice, it’s her choice,” said Serrano. “However, I think that cordial women should get the recognition and equality that men receive.”
But it is not clear who even made the decision. Tomas Rohan from the Taylor team said it was Netflix, who streamly sent the Tyson-Paul card and sends this stream, said that there is no reason to change in relation to the two-minute format and the action he assured. But Paul, who is a co -founder of the most valuable promotions representing Serrano, said that Netflix wanted three minutes of rounds and pointed to Taylor as the reason he stopped him.
Taylor does not believe that an additional minute of fighting would mean an additional minute of action.
“I think that the three -minute goal was to prove to people that you will get more knockout. How many knockout you got in your 12 three minutes. Zero,” she said towards Serrano. “After all, they are tedious fights and it was not a good advertisement of 12 three-minute fights for women. It was tedious, so I don’t think Netflix is too disappointed that this fight will be a 10-minute fight.”

Keyshawn Davis will face the inactive Edwin de los Santos for WBO Crown on June 7
Published
2 hours agoon
April 9, 2025
The lithe master WBO Keyshawn Davis (13-0, 9 KO) will defend against inactive Edwin de los Santos Edwin de los Santos in ESPN, Norfolk, Virginia.
Yesterday it was reported that de los Santos (16-2, 14 KO) rejected the offer and that Keyshawn is developing. Now the fight is completed. Probably negotiating games so that they rarely see de los santos to agree to the price.
Insidious strategy
When de los Santos actively fought years ago, he was a great warrior. He struck Jose “Rayo” Valenzuela and defeated Joseph Adorno. However, Edwin lost to Shakur Stevenson and William Foster III. These failures were red flags that de los Santos was not a real opportunity.
Fitting Keyshawn to De los Santos instead of one of the busy talents, such as Andy Cruz, is a insidious movement because there is no high risk.
Glass risk of jaw
Has a power to hit, i.e. Kryptonit Keyshawn. We saw the silver medalist of the Olympic 2020 Rulan by Nahir Albright in 2023 and since this bad experience, the highest rank suited him very carefully. Keyshawn has a glass jaw. So, if Rust Rusta de Los Santos may land on him one of his large shots, he will go to sleep, and the highest rank will have to put him in the next work.
What are the reasons for choosing de los Santos?
- Comparative goals: Shakur Stevenson defeated de los Santos in his last fight in 2023. So if Keyshawn does a better job than he does, it gives him popularity. Fans who do not pay attention to dates and inaction will not be aware that Stevenson’s fight took place two years ago and since then De los Santos has not fought.
- Make sure Keyshawn wins: Is there a better way to make sure Davis wins than to choose an inactive warrior who lost? This is perfect.
- Make Davis look great: Fighting with an inactive guy is a great way for Keyshawn to look like 24 -carat gold.
Mike Coppinger gave the message From the fight Keyshawn vs. De los Santos, which is set for June 7. De los Santos He has not fought for two years Shakur Stevenson on November 16, 2023 from his 12-round loss of decision.
Two years
The obvious question is: why an inactive warrior who has not fought for centuries and did not lose the loss in the highest rank for the first defense of the Keyshawn title of his WBO belt? As for Davis looks better than he, it makes sense that de los Santos be chosen, but it doesn’t seem logical differently.
The idea of masters creating defense is to choose worthy pretenders. When the guy leaves the loss and two -year release, he gives the impression that the warrior was chosen to ensure that the master can keep her belt.

– Raymond Muratalla
– Abdullah Mason

Tyson Fury on Deontay Wilder: “I would like to see how he’s retiring”
Published
4 hours agoon
April 9, 2025
By: Sean Crose
The Tyson Fury trilogy in heavyweight from Deontay Wilder was one forever. Some people can say that it was the Trilogy Fight between the heavyweight champions of the second rate. These people would be erroneous. In addition to Oleksandr Usyk, Fury was the greatest letter of heavyweight since Lennox Lewis (Klitschkos were great, but not great fury).
As for Wilder, this writer sees him as the most complex fighter in history (and he knows a little about boxing history). The fact that a man has repeatedly put a qualified fury repeatedly tells you everything you need to know. Both Fury and Wilder are currently retired, but there is the word Wilder. Fury thinks it’s a bad idea.
“Since the trilogy we had,” said Fury, “we have devoted many years. We had a war, which ended in the 11th round of a knockout, which pulls a lot from your tank and you do not cure after such fights. There was 10 knocking down between my and Wilder’s trilogy.”
Fury, who was recently seen in the ring, losing the second fight in a row from Usyk, believes that too much was taken out of Wilder (and perhaps alone) during three ring battles to make sense to make Wilder resume fighting.
“He pulls out a lot of a warrior,” he continued Fury – “and even when he returned and had a few fights from Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang, he is only a shadow of his former glory. The only thing that is the same in Deontay is his name. I would like to see how he certainly retired.
As he knows, Fury knows, retirement is a complex challenge for the aging warrior. Finally, Fury retired at least twice. He had (at least originally) a problem with problems that went beyond physical consumption for the first time. In other words, he wasn’t like George Foreman, who returned through his excellent number to shock the world. However, there was only one George Foreman. Requirement into these steps can be a hazardous undertaking. In the end, boxing can cause stern damage … and worse.
Despite this, athletes – and especially boxers – may have difficulty calling it once and for all. And every athlete must make his own decisions.
