Tim Bradley blames the lackluster performance of Bruce Carrington last Saturday evening against Mateus Heitie that it was “”bored in the ring “ Because it was too uncomplicated for him. It didn’t seem to be bored.

Bradley protection

The fans saw fear in Carrington’s eyes because he was persecuted by the relentless, hungry predator, Mateus Heit (14-1, 9 Kos), who did not intend to give up. Bradley sounds like a classic example of a person who will turn in a warrior’s defeat. Shu Shu looked terrible, but Bradley blames him for boredom. Fans do not buy Tim excuses for Carrington.

Carrington won the 12-round fight with a unanimous decision, but he did not look good. He ran too much and did not show any dog in him, to the extent that he was ready to fight Heita Toe-toe. He was forced to move all the time to stop him from knocking out by the highest blow, Heita. The results were 119-109. 119-109 and 120-108.

After the fight, Carrington sounded comical, saying: I see [WBO featherweight champion Rafael] Espinosis in the crowd. I want to fight him. “

The best rank does not intend to put Carrington with Espinosis (27-0, 23 KO) and watch how he broke his career in the way he did the two-time Olympic gold medalist Robeis Ramirez.

“As for the performance of today’s performance, I wanted to see more,” said Tim Bradley Fight Hub tvResponding to the penniless win of Bruce Carrington over Mateus Heita on Saturday evening in Novel York. “If you hit such a guy in Wola, if it is so uncomplicated to land this kind of blows on him, you can do a little more to try to enter the judge.”

Carrington couldn’t do more because he would be knocked out. Heita had too much power for him to try to choose a knockout. When Bruce tried to unload it, Heita caught him with huge mountains, which broke away from the head.

Carrington’s skills restrictions

Bradley did not look closely at Carrington’s fight last year with a pretender for the featherweight Sulaiman Segawa to know that he was a circumscribed warrior. Carrington is not one of the best aged 126. Segawa clearly defeated him, but he received a miniature end of the stick with judges on the side of the fighter A, who had noise behind him.

In addition to Heita Segawa, he is the only other pretender with whom Carrington stood during his four -year professional career. The point is that they were both pretenders with fringes, not with a high ranking of fighters, and still make Carrington fight.

“Everything is targeted to push Shu Shu in this direction, the direction in which he wants to be. He wants to be known as one of the best fighters who leave Brownsville [New York]. I do not set any restrictions About his skills. Everyone else can set restrictions. No, I think you are better than what you showed, “said Bradley.

Bruce has all kinds of restrictions on her skills. He revealed last night that he could not stand in his pocket for a idle, move too much and resorts to using stiff arms. It is also circumscribed in terms of power. His promoters did a good job so that he was a great blow, but he showed that last night that he was not at the level of heity in the energy department.

Carrington will soon be 29 years elderly. He will not be “one of the best fighters who leave Brownsville. If he had such talent, he would already be shown and would not struggle with the only two players with whom the best rank suited him, Heita and Segawa.

Boredom Bradleya excuse

“Fulton? I think it would be a hellish match. I think he had the opportunity to beat [WBC featherweight champion] Stephen Fulton. Absolutely. When you get a guy who is bored in such a ring [Carrington]It was too uncomplicated, but he couldn’t get a knockout. This does not push him, “Tim said.

Impact on heity pressure

Boredom was not the reason why Carrington looked penniless against Heitie. Who is trying Bradley? The reason he ran on the ring, fought and did not stand on his land, was fear. Carrington was worried because he was Coping with pressure similar to GGG From Heita, who never stopped coming, persecute him around the ring and hitting heavily as he trapped him.

Heita was like a hunter in the ring, and Carrington looked fear. Sometimes he tried to bluff, but his movements showed that he was afraid of his well -being. Bradley does not see the reality of what happened last night.

“If you compromise him and put him with a guy who is at the same level as he, in terms of IQ, and he must kick and try to get him, I think we see another shu shu. Really.

“Today, he [Carrington] He was supposed to shine today. I thought he had a perfect opponent in front of him, a hand -chosen opponent [Mateus Heita]. I’m forthright. It can rub him in the wrong way, but that’s all. I just keep it 100 because I’ll tell you. Fans at home see it and they will say it too. It’s just that, “said Bradley about Carrington.

Bradley sounded as if he refrained from baking Carrington last night during the ESPN broadcast of his fight with Heita. Tim did not see that Shu Shu was maximum, fighting for what he could, but he lacked power and talent to dominate Heita.

Carrington was not comfortable with complex arrows with which Heita hit him. The guy could look slowly, but he had it Brigadier’s power on his hefty shots.

You could hear the sound of heity blows. It was the sound of bangs, and Carrington was not willing to stand in his pocket for a long time to endure this punishment. The mountains and looping of the right hands with which Heita hit Shu Shu made him a survey, reluctant to stay in his pocket.

Carrington changed the rabbit early, choosing continuous movement and holding. It wasn’t accidental. It was self -preservation. He tried to save his skin because he met his match.

Dmitry Bivol is targeting a fight with Canelo Alvarez or David Benavidez

Undisputed lithe heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol could pursue a rematch with Canelo Alvarez or a fight with David Benavidez once he finishes his current duties in the division.

Bivol’s manager, Vadim Kornilov, outlined the champion’s preferred path in comments provided by Dan Rafael, explaining that Bivol intends to first pursue a mandatory IBF defense and then return to competing with Artur Beterbiev.


He is expected to have a mandatory defense against Michael Eifert this spring. The fight was scheduled for May 23 at a gala headlined by unified heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk.

After fulfilling this obligation, Bivol’s team wants to immediately start the third fight with Beterbiev. Their rivalry produced two closely watched fights, leaving unfinished business between two fighters who have dominated the lithe heavyweight division for the past several years and built one of the most respected rivalries in the sport.

More intriguing possibilities emerge after this trilogy. Rafael reported that Bivola’s camp sees a second fight with Canelo as one of the main options still available to the champion. Bivol defeated Alvarez by unanimous decision in 2022, handing the Mexican star one of the clearest defeats of his career.

Another potential opponent in question is Benavidez, who has moved up to lithe heavyweight and has been seeking a chance to fight the top fighters in the division. The fight between Bivol and Benavidez will pit the undefeated Mexican-American challenger against a champion who currently holds four major division titles.

Kornilov also suggested that Bivol could eventually prove himself at cruiserweight, although such an idea appears to be more of a long-term possibility than an immediate plan for the undefeated champion.

For now, the plan of action remains straightforward: fulfill the IBF mandate against Eifert, complete the trilogy with Beterbiev, and then fight one of the most crucial fights that could decide the final stage of Bivol’s career.

Jai Opetai’s undisputed dream lives on as the IBF releases a fresh statement regarding the status of the title

Jai Opetaia undisputed dream still alive as IBF release new statement on title status

A fresh twist has been revealed in the story of Jai Opetai and the IBF cruiserweight title.

Last week it was reported that Opetaia was to be stripped of his IBF belt after the opening bell of his planned fight with Brandon Glanton on Sunday at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas, due to the fact that the fight was also for Zuffa’s inaugural belt.

Nevertheless, Opetaia continued his fight and declared a unanimous decision victory over Glanton extend their undefeated record to 30-0.

After the fight, Opetaia once again shared his desire to become undisputed in the cruiserweight division, and it appears he has been given the opportunity to do just that as – announced the IBF in a statement that they have not yet made a final decision to strip him of the title.

“Jai Opetaia made comments during the post-fight press conference that led the organization’s leadership to question whether his advisors fully and fully made him aware of the decisions he had to make in deciding to fight Brandon Glanton. The organization intends to take a closer look at this matter.”

The statement also included a mighty response to claims that they had decided not to sanction the fight due to feelings of “disrespect” in the run-up to the fight.

“The IBF categorically denies any suggestion or claim that it deliberately withdrew sanctions to cause harm. The IBF sanctioned the Opetaia vs. Glanton fight in good faith, expecting what was assured to happen.”

“The press conference held on March 8 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada, made it clear that the inaugural Zuffa World Cruiserweight Championship would be held on March 8.

“The IBF, as previously stated on March 6, reserves the right to sanction title fights along with other sanctioning bodies that adhere to the same regulations that the IBF follows, and reserves the right to sanction title fights along with other fights that prepare the IBF cruiserweight title remains a subject of discussion.”

The final outcome as to whether Opetaia will indeed retain her title will be revealed in due course.

Turki Alalshikh studies the boxing system

“It’s analyzing how the system works on this side of the wall, in the States, and then it will make its own move,” Nelson told iFL TV. “He only wants one belt.”

Turki Alalshikh has already become one of boxing’s most influential financial sponsors thanks to his involvement in major events. The chairman of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority has helped finance several high-profile fights by working with promoters across the sport.

Nelson believes this approach could ultimately influence how the championship is organized.

For decades, boxing titles were distributed among several sanctioning bodies, with each group recognizing its own champion in the same weight class. The result is multiple belts in one category and constant debate about who is actually at the top.

Nelson indicated that Turki’s long-term interest may include simplifying this structure.

“He’s just sorting out all his ducks,” Nelson said. “He understands how everyone works.”

Turki has already shown a willingness to work with various promoters and networks in supporting major fight cards in Saudi Arabia. His involvement has helped unite fighters and promoters who often operate in separate business paths.

These partnerships included collaborations with competing promoters and broadcasters that had historically operated separately. The Saudi-backed substantial cards also attracted fighters from several promotional groups to the same event.

Nelson sees the current period as preparation for a bigger game.

Another question is whether a single-lane system could ever be implemented. The four main sanctioning bodies would continue to exist and their titles would continue to be recognized unless broadcasters chose to ignore them.

This kind of change would likely require networks like DAZN to focus exclusively on events built around the Ring Belt. For now, such a scenario seems arduous to imagine.

Turki has already become one of the main financial figures of sport. Turki has the resources to influence boxing, but turning a four-belt sport into a one-belt system would be a completely different fight.
