US fans are nervous when they find out that the Kickoff press conference for Canelo Alvarez vs. Terenka Crawford Fight will take place in June in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The fight will be staged in the USA, not Saudi Arabia, on September 13. Event organizers still hope that US fans will buy a huge number on PPV.

They may feel that they can afford to ignore US fans because of the huge base of Canelo fans in North America and newer fans of Crawford. Despite the press conference in Riyadh, the American media will cover this event in a huge number, informing fans what happens to the competition while gathering to their September 13.

Saudis have money to promote the fight of Canelo-Crawford in the USA, which will cause fans to overlook a press conference in Riyadh and potentially over conferences, if they continue to exhibit there.

Who is this sport for?

Some believe that the press conference begins in Riyadh to determine the priorities of financial profits. Saudi Arabia can earn at these events. However, the movement imagines the basic bases of Canelo and Crawford fans, which have no money or time to travel thousands of miles to take part in a press conference in Riyadh.

Turks Alalshikh had previously talked about reviving boxing to bring him back to the place where it was once. Staging conferences for American fights in Saudi Arabia may have the opposite effect, which makes a boxing event a more secondary niche sport. We have already seen as soon as a tiny VIP crowd participated in the Times Square card on May 2.

It was chosenAnd the event was very exclusive. Okay if You are one of the luxurious in Uber Or very successful people who will be chosen for these events, but what if you are not? Is this happening with our sport? How can it develop if it becomes more exclusive?

. Ring reports that these three cities are options for Canelo-Crawford

– Las Vegas
– Los Angeles
– Modern York

#1 Xander Zayas I #2 Jorge Garcia Perez reached the fight for the fight for the free WBO Junior Medium Libra title. The location and date of the fight will be announced soon. The previous Master WBO, Sebastian Fund, decided to give up the 154-pound WBO belt after the sanctioning authority ordered him to start negotiations with the 22-year-old native Puerto Rican Zayas (21-0, 13 KO).

Un-trinity

It is not that the fund was afraid, as if the striking delicate of the Zayas fighter. He decided to fight better in the rematch with Tim Tisz on July 19 on the Manny Pacquiao vs. Mario Barrios. Zayas wanted the fund to have a premature situation with him after his last victory over Chordale Booker, but he did not choose it because he had no fight with him.

Xander looked stupid and desperate, coming to the wardrobe funds, trying to meet. If the fight happened, the fund would be a great favorite because Zayas has no picture. His only way to victories is to hit, move and gain in this order.

Zayas is not well known beyond the Up-to-date York Arena i His style is very uninteresting. It is the opposite of fighters from Puerto Rico Felix Trinidad and Miguel Cotto. It resembles Puerto Rican Shakur Stevenson, which is not good. He also has little Devin Haney. You may notice Haney’s style in Xander, which suggests that he could apply it and Shakur as his role models.

Perez (33-4, 26 KO) leaves the 12-round division of decisions Charles Conwell On April 19 at Oceanside, California. Nobody expected Perez, 6’0 ″, overcome the previously undefeated Conwell, but used a body attack and combination to defeat him.

Handy opportunity?

Zayas’ flaws

– no power
– frail chin
– Never tested: Zayas adapted the highest rank with only mediocre opposition
– not ready for elite competition
– blunt style

Will six world champions of the Manny division “Pac Man” Pacquiao, at the age of 46, break the former heavyweight champion “BIG” George Foreman, who won the world championship title at the age of 45?

The current world champion of WBC WWETreight Mario “El Azteca” Barrios, 29-2-1, from San Antonio in Texas, negotiates the defense of the title against Pacquiao in June or July.

Barrios had his last defense in November 2024, ending with a divided draw with Abel Ramos, 28-6-2, at the AT&T stadium, Arlington, Texas. It was also the previous fight for Ramos. What seemed to be a rematch did not develop.

The last fight of Pacquiao took place in August 2021, losing to Yordenis Ugas, 26-4, in T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada. In September 2023, UGA lost to Barrios for the ephemeral title of WBC World Welter Wweight on T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, and Nevada.

Foreman, then 72-4, still has a record as the oldest to win the title of world champion at the age of 45, knocking out the world heavyweight champion IBF Michael “Double M” Moorer, 35-0, in MGM Grand, Grand Garden Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada.

The only other boxer who won the title of world champion at the age of 40 or more was “Ruby” Bob Fitzsimmons at the age of 40. He defeated George Gardner, 38-4-3, over 20 rounds, at Mechanics Pavilion, San Francisco in California.

Will “Pac Man” become the third, not only to win the title of world champion over 40, but the oldest at the age of 46?
