Chantelle Cameron and Natasha Jonas in Chase for Katie Taylor Showdown

Published

on

Chantelle Cameron and Natasha Jonas are fighting to be another opponent of Katie Taylor after her fight with Amanda Serrano in Novel York on Saturday.

Taylor (24-1, 6 KO), 38, from Bray in Ireland, but WHO Trains in Connecticut, is 2-0, enters the Saturday defense of its world-handed titles in Madison Square Garden.

Serrano (47-3-1, 31 KO), 36, who as a child moved to Novel York from Puerto Rico, overcame a significant disadvantage that she accelerated three classes to Outland and Wobble Taylor in the greatest fight in the history of women’s boxing in November last year, while fighting his right eye.

But Taylor became forceful in later rounds to get 95-94 results with all three judges, after winning the first fight vs. Serrano in the issue of the disputed, divided decision in April 2022.

Cameron (20-1, 8 KO), 34, from Northampton in England and who is now training in Liverpool, also fights on the same card as Taylor vs. Serrano III in Madison Square Garden, when he is in the face of Jessica Camar (14-4-1, 3 KO).

Cameron inflicted the only defeat of Taylor, at most points in May 2023, before Ireland also took revenge on majority points in November 2023.

Cameron is signed for the most valuable promotions, companies Social Media Star Jake PauL, and because he is also a pretender for the WBC Taylor belt, the future opponent of Taylor looks like.

However, Cameron still has some doubts.

“I was told that I would fight the winner of Katie versus Amanda because I am the transient champion of WBC,” said Cameron ESPN.

“However, Amanda is not a 140-Funt warrior, but whoever wins, and if the title becomes empty, I will fight for the title after the next fight.

“I am not saying that I am sure that the third fight against Katie, because the fight with her in the trilogy should have been a long time ago. I fought her in Dublin twice and told me after the second in the ring that the fight against the trilogy would happen.

“I thought he was signed and sealed, I agreed to the date and place, and I actually took less money for her than the first two fights. But then I was told that he wanted to fight easier and fight her duty instead of me.

“She didn’t want to fight me again and did she change her mind?

Mother-of-one Jonas (16-3-1, 9 KO), 41, from Liverpool, has retirement plans on the shelf to see if he can receive one last day of remuneration compared to Taylor or Serrano.

Jonas lost its titles WBC and IBF World Welter Wweight on the British rival Lauren Price on points in March.

“Katie means much more to me because of our history, but the fight with the winner, whoever is, means that you have lanes on the line, so it makes sense,” said Jonas Espn.

“There are only three fights in which I could invest everything, and against Katie, Mikael Mayer and Amanda Serrano.

“I am sure that Cameron Cameron is higher in a queue than me to fight Katie because she signed a contract with Jake Paul. But 140 pounds are something that I could do comfortably and I am available.

“Fighting Katie would be perfect because there are only some fights that can motivate me, because you have to go through hell mentally and physically to prepare. If I intend to do it, I want to do it because of to motivate myself. Katie would bring it.”

Both Cameron and Jonas agree that Taylor’s utilize of her head can be a decisive factor again on Saturday. Serrano was seriously cut through the ass of the head in the 4th round of her second defeat from Taylor in November, and later Taylor took the point to utilize.

“I think it’s Katie’s style, I don’t think she does it on purpose, but she definitely uses her head,” said Cameron ESPN.

“I had opponents of her message before I fought Katie, telling me to think of her head and sticking to. We were aware that she was leading with my head before she entered both fights. I don’t think she did it on purpose, but when she sees how she cut you, she did it, she just did against Amandie and I in recurses. [by a clash of heads in Round 3] And then she made the decision [in the 2023 rematch].

“Katie is an incredible boxer, but she is enraged with her head and leads with her head.

“I hope that this will be a cleaner fight, but so far they have produced really good fights and I think it will be another good. It is challenging to say who will win, I think Amanda had pierced the first two fights, but Katie was forceful in the second, so sit on the fence.”

Jonas, who lost her unanimous decision from close results towards Taylor for world airy titles in 2021, says that Taylor must watch out for her head after last year she has managed a point against Serrano.

“Amanda thought she won and could do enough, but I thought Katie deserved to win the second fight,” said Jonas Espn.

“I thought that Amanda’s cutting completely changed the second fight when she was coming back to the fight, when she had cut, then changed her packed and played Katie. Amanda probably thought she had to do it because it was a terrifying cut, and Amanda lost her way, and Katie became more effective.

“I do not think that Strzępiek was deliberate, but Katie also knows how she boxes, and if you look at the faces of herself, Delfine Peroon and Chantelle after we went to Katie, we have nodules and unevenness on our faces, and they were not from the blows. It was a great decision for the judge in the second fight Serrano to make Katie, because they did It was a great decision.

“I think it’s a bit like Artur Beterbiv vs Dmitriry Bivol, if they fought 20 times, everyone would be really close, really high quality. Some gel styles for the production of classics, and so it is in the case of Katie and Amanda.

“Both girls raised women’s boxing to a different level. They don’t slide anyone, they are simply great rivals.

“The conversation around the boxing of women and around it interest in which they obtained is a recognition for both of them, women’s boxing is owed to them.”

Floyd Mayweather Sr. had only one man in mind when he mentioned the strongest boxer in boxing history

Floyd Mayweather Sr had only one man in mind when naming the hardest puncher in boxing history

Floyd Mayweather Sr. had only one name in mind when asked who he thought was the greatest boxer in boxing history.

Mayweather Sr., after more than 50 years in the sport, is well-equipped to answer this question. He made his professional debut in 1974 and took part in 35 competitions, including a fight with the legendary Sugar Ray Leonard.

Mayweather Sr. is perhaps best known for his training career, as he trained his son Floyd Jr to numerous world titles and also spent stints in the corner for the likes of Oscar De La Hoya and Ricky Hatton.

In recent years, Mayweather Sr. has shared his thoughts on a wide range of topics from the world of boxing, as well in the restored cliprevealed that he thinks Earnie Shavers is the hardest hitter in the history of the sport.

“Earnie shavers! [Asked, not Mike Tyson?] Earnie Shavers!”

This is a view shared by many other fighters, and it’s effortless to see why – 70 of Shavers’ 76 claimed wins have been by knockout, 23 of them in the first round.

Although he unsuccessfully challenged for the world heavyweight title twice, he demonstrated his immense strength in both of those fights, knocking down Muhammad Ali in the second round of their 1977 fight and defeating Larry Holmes in the seventh round of their 1979 battle.

Shavers sadly passed away in September 2022 at the age of 78 after a low illness, but it is clear that boxing fans will forever remember him as one of the most powerful men to ever grace the sport.

Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury are expected to fight later this year, but the date remains uncertain even though both camps claim to have reached an agreement. The fight depends on whether Joshua makes it to his fight, which will take place on July 25 in Riyad against Kristian Prenga.

Fury returned earlier this month with a decision victory over Arslanbek Makhmudov, his first victory since 2023, and immediately called for Joshua, who was watching from ringside. From that moment on, the desire to fight intensified again.

Joshua is still scheduled to return to action in July after a break following a fatal car crash in Nigeria that killed two of his close friends. He confirmed that he will continue his career and that his next target will be Fury, provided he manages to get a summer fight.

This first step is now ready. Joshua will face Kristian Prenga on July 25 in Riyad, with both sides claiming a deal with Fury will be concluded later. Eddie Hearn has identified November as his target.

“We’ll be back in July against Kristian Prengi and then, if all goes well, we’ll fight Tyson Fury in November. Everything has been signed on our end and ready to go. Fury said he’s signed the contract too, so there’s no point in denying it, in the end we’re going to fight without a doubt the biggest fight in the history of British boxing,” Hearn told Punch Podcast.

For Fury’s side, Frank Warren provided another window on when the fight would happen.

“It’s signed. Tyson signed up for it a few months ago and we were waiting for AJ and he already did it. So the fight will continue and it looks like it will take place sometime in October,” Warren said on talkSport Boxing.

The difference between October and November is compact on paper, but it usually means that the details are not yet fully settled. Fury’s dates, location and schedule still need to be finalized before anything can truly be wrapped up.

The fight goes on under a certain condition. Joshua has to get through July first. Until that happens, everything else is still being discussed.

Manny Pacquiao names one fighter he wishes he faced: “They preserved him from me”

Manny Pacquiao has faced plenty of top-flight stars over the course of his three-decade-long career, but there is one fighter the Filipino star still regrets not being able to fight.

“Pac Man” competed in famed fights with the likes of Floyd Mayweather, Oscar De La Hoya and Juan Manuel Marquez and remains in the sport to this day, hoping to break his own record as the oldest welterweight world champion in boxing history.

However, before the veteran can continue this mission, he is scheduled to fight a rematch with Mayweather in September – however, it is unclear whether it will be a professional or exhibition space.

The 47-year-old icon said, reflecting on his 73-fight career Vibration that he still regrets not having had the opportunity to hand Terence Crawford his first defeat before “Bud” retired with a 42-0 record.

“The Crawford fight. Because Bob Arum kept it. I’m covered by top-tier promotions and he’s been covered by top-tier promotions before, so I would love to fight him. But it never happened. Bob didn’t give it to me.”

Pacquiao and Crawford have been linked to the fight multiple times, and intriguingly, when the Omaha cameraman was asked the same question, he stated that he had been “chasing this fight for years” and regretted that it didn’t happen.

If he remains interested, Pacquiao has shared his desire to fight anyone while he is dynamic in the sport, including Crawford.

“As long as I stay dynamic in boxing, I will never do it [duck] whoever is in line. Whoever I face, I will face.”

Crawford doesn’t seem interested in returning to the ring despite the allure of a lucrative rematch with Canelo Alvarez, while Pacquiao appears to be absent in 2026 due to Mayweather’s defeat.
