Anthony Cacace (23-1, 8 KO) and former super feather champion in IBO and former two-time WBA champion 126-LB Leigh Wood (28-3, 17 KO) brought a importance today during Friday weighing for their Heliner on Saturday, May 10. Cacace vs. Wood will be shown live on Dazn from Nottingham Arena in Nottingham.

(Loan: Leigh Dawney/Queensberry)

It is surprising little noise About the fight against cocoa wood from fans, perhaps because of the disappointing promotion of the event. Compared to other fights, there was not much pressure to try to sell this scrap at the national level.

Weighing the results

Anthony Cacace 129.8 vs. Leigh Wood 129.8

This is the only partial fight on the card that will interest fans from outside Great Britain. Some other weights on the card are as follows:

Liam Davies 125.2 vs. Kurt Walker 125.4
Owen Cooper 145.7 vs. Chris Congo 146.7
Sam noakes 141lbs 7 vs. Patrik Balaz 141

Complex Cacace opportunity

Part of the problem is that the 36-year-old Cacace lost a great opportunity to find out on the world stage when he left his title IBF Super Feather Wweight after grasping him with Joe Cordina in May in May in a nervous technical knockout in Riyadh.

Instead of defending your IBF belt against his mandatory contender Eduardo “Sugar” NúñezCacace left the belt to shine a better paid fight against the faded Josh Warrington. Cacace won, but he looked mediocre.

Even if Cacace lost this fight with Nunez, he would still be wanted for the Lucrative national clashes with Warrington and Leigh Wood. It was a mistake from Cacace because he returned to an undetectable warrior, who he once was before nervous of Cordina.

The way he acted against Warrington is perhaps good that he did not pass the fight against “Sugar” Nunez (27-1, 27 KO), because he would probably pristine his clock through a tough Mexican. Despite this, it looked bad that Cacace gave up IBF instead of defending him against Nunez to face over-the-Hill Warrington.

Title implications

If Cacace wins on Saturday, he should lend a hand him get closer to the title of World Champion in 130, if this is a high goal. However, wood is seen as washed by fans. So Cacace will not get too much from victory over him. If Anthony wants a quick shot from the world, he has to face the pretender Raymond Ford.

If Cacace defeated Ford, he would have a quick chance for another title. Unfortunately, I don’t think he even dared to take this fight. If Cacace does not fight Nunez, he certainly will not want to get tangled with Ford.

Isaac Cruz – Angel Fierro Rematch probably on the Pacquiao -Barrios card in July

Published

on

Image: Isaac Cruz - Angel Fierro Rematch Likely on Pacquiao-Barrios Card in July

Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz could fight Angel Fierro on Undercard Manny Pacquiao vs. Mario Barrios in July. This event still has to be confirmed. Cruz (27-3-1, 18 KO) defeated Fierro (27-3-2, 18 KO) with a unanimous decision at the beginning of this year on February 1, with a result of 98-92, 97-93 and 96-94. There would be a rematch because some boxing fans thought it was a controversial result.

Fierro again?

I watched the fight and I had a Cruz victory 9-1. There was no controversy. The only question about scoring is: why the judges had it so close. Pitbull dominated this fight, but the judges did not recognize him as arrows of the bodies that he landed all the time. Fans prefer Cruz to fight someone else, for example the WBA welter run master, Gary Antuanne Russell, IBF Richardson Hitchins master or Teofimo Lopez for his WBO belt.

Pitbull Cruz could fight Ryan Garcia last Friday in the evening, but he did not want to negotiate with him fighting when he was still on February to fight Fierro. Cruz must now kick, because not only he would earn more money by fighting Ryan, but would win the “ordinary” title of WBA “ordinary” welterweight title. If he took a fight in Garcia and won, he would be able to earn huge money in a rematch against another popular warrior.

What Pitbull does not need is to get stuck in making a rematch against pretenders just because one of his fights was competitive or controversial. He must go further, challenging for world titles.

Pitbull style

Cruz looked like a little Mike Tyson against Fierrero. It was impressive how he adapted when Fierro still forced him to shot in the head. Cruz focused on his body and could not do anything to get off these shots. Again, the judges did not award Pitbull as his work, because they would consider it a skewed decision if they did.

Fierro lost two of the last three fights and heads towards the status of the journeyman. His second defeat was Alfredo Santiago last year in June, and it was a wide 10-round defeat of the decision. If anyone was blurring, he should be a rematch, it should be Santiago.

“They took out the largest ticket seller”: John Fury’s statements about the UYK loss and the potential trilogy

Published

on

Image: Bob Arum: Fury's Entertainment Value Drove His Fortune, Retirement Now Best

John Fury claims that his son, Tyson Fury, deserved to win his two fights with Oleksander Usyk, but the judges “stole” It’s from him. He says that people who pay Fury (34-2-1, 24 KO) “probably” could not afford to pay Tyson the same amount of cake if he kept his title in the first fight.

The way he has recently performed would never overcome any of the best contenders to get golden Payday trilogy. Fury is already soiled. I don’t know why he would need the third day of payment against UYYk.

Tyson looks completely washed for 37 years and would be food for pretenders. With a record of 0-2 in the last two fights, Fury does not deserve the title of world champion against Usyk. It is not fair for pretenders, so that Tyson still gives him a chance without going from the back of the line.

“Stolen” fighting

“He had his lanes from him, right? They took out the largest ticket seller from the game. If you want Mega-Bucks, you must turn on the gypsy king,” said John Fury SecondsSpeaking about the fact that Tyson Fury lost the heavyweight title of WBC to Oleksandr Usyk last year in May in the first fight. “When someone paid you [ton] Money, they seem reluctant to let you remain a master, right? “

John really gets here, right? He suggests that the financial investment has played a role in judges who do not give him a decision. The fans agreed with the decisions passed by the judges in both fights of fury. They saw the Fury got up on his shoes in the first fight and saved by a judge when he was on his feet in the ninth round of their first fight.

“They probably didn’t want to pay him the same amount for my money,” John continued. “I probably couldn’t afford to pay Tyson the same money if he let him remain a champion. He wasn’t in the best shape for the other. [Fury] He won both fights. First, he needed more rest. He disturbed. He was left nothing. “

Blame the deflection

Pay attention to excuses from John? This is a classic denial. He tries to protect fury against perception as a loser. He paints fury as a victim to get compassion from fans and motivate them to emphasize the trilogy. There is no demand for this fight, but if a sufficient amount of gullible fans believe that Gysky King has been robbed, he will arouse interest.

Squawawing about how Fury was robbed, John helps to create a false narrative that he had injured. If John can make fans believe that there is a robbery, Fury would not have to risk his skin in front of one of the best rivals to get a third lusative fight with Usyk.

Navarrete is barely weight, the fight against Suarez is turned on

Published

on

By: Sean Crose

Emanuel Navarrete, Master WBO Super World Feather, will defend his title on Saturday evening against the invincible Charly Suarez in San Diego. The fight, which will be broadcast live in ESPN, is scheduled for 12 championship rounds. Navarrete recently fought in December, when he stopped Oscar Valdez in six. Suarez was recently noticed in September, where he stopped Jorge Castaned in three. Although Navarrete had a problem with heavyweight, he was finally able to reach the Super Feather Wweight limit, so the fight is ready. How much the fight for earning weight will be or will not affect the performance of the Navarrete ring, it will just turn out.

“My performance against Oscar Valdez was my way of showing that I am 100 percent now,” said Navarrete through CBS. “There is no doubt about it now.” At the age of thirty, Navarrete fought over forty times, which is noteworthy according to today’s standards. What’s more, he only lost twice (he also has a draw in his CV). After last winter he looked so impressive against Valdez, Navarrete undoubtedly wants to still look at “100 percent” this weekend. However, Suarez may have something to say about it. This is to be an intriguing fight.
