Boxing: Another title shot of Manny Pacquiao? Anthony Joshua vs. Jake Paul? Crawford sends Canelo to canvas? Don’t be surprised

Published

on

At least the first eight months of 2025. We had historical moments that set fire to the boxing world (Women card at Madison Square Garden in July) and others that left us summer, despite the promise of the performance (Times Square event in May). The 46 -year -old Manny Pacquiao returned to the ring in July, just to gather the controversial majority to become the oldest welterweight champion in boxing history. A week later, Xander Zayas became the youngest boxing world champion at the age of 22.

In the last four months of the year, he will be dominated by Terenka Crawford, he will become a three -part unquestioned champion, when he makes an incomprehensible climbing of two weight classes up to 168 pounds to challenge Canelo Alvarez at the Allegian Stadium in Las Vegas on September 13. But while the boxing world is waiting that this historic show is not only to stop at stop.

When the boxing schedule begins to shake for the rest of the year, this is a guide to some of the most smoking questions along with answers to questions that you may not even think about.

Do not be surprised if Manny Pacquiao challenges the challenge of the welterweight Master Rolando Romero before the end of the year

Pacquiao almost broke his own record as the oldest welterweight master when he fought Titlist WBC Mario Barrios to the majority. If nothing more, it turned out to be Pacquiao that she still was at the age of 46. He explained that he wanted to fight again before the end of the year.

Initially, the idea of a rematch from Barrio sounded intriguing, but the fact is that Barrios is not a great draw. The Pacquiao manager, Sean Gibbons, suggested that the Filipino boxing legend does not waste time from Barrios’s rematch and does not look anywhere else.

If the creation of history is what Pacquiao wants, he should not look further than the fight with the title WBA “Rolly” Romero, who has a larger profile than Barrios after his nervous win with Ryan Garcia in May. Gibbons is on board this idea and it makes the most sense in the next Pacquiao fight.

Don’t be surprised if Anthony Joshua fights with Jake Paul … in 2026

There were many conversations about the potential fight between Joshua, a former champion in hefty weight and ambitious Paweł. Joshua has long wanted to fight another Englishman Tyson Fury, but it does not look like it will happen, with double Dutch fury and apart from retirement and seemingly more interested in the third fight with Okseksandr Uyk. This leaves Joshua very few options.

Fighting with Paweł is the lowest risk, the highest reward, although Joshua seems to be at the level above such a duel. When the door is approaching possible alternative opponents, Paul fights closer to reality. If this happens, it will not be this year, because Paul will have to submit at the start with heavyweight.

Paul will probably receive another fight in the circuitous scale before the end of the year and start attacking the fight against Joshua in 2026. When it comes to Joshua, he was loosely associated with Tony Yoka during the first fight after surgery.

Don’t be surprised if Gervonta Davis is not fighting again this year

After a surprising draw of the majority with Lamont Roach in March, Davis was to sign up for the rematch this summer. There were rumors that the fight was signed this weekend in Las Vegas, but before it was possible to publish a formal advertisement, the return on return were suspended when Davis was arrested in Florida on charges of the home battery on July 11.

Davis is not foreign to legal problems and often came to the most inappropriate time. However, this time “Tank” came unscathed because the case was abandoned against him. There is still time for the fight to take place, but Davis’s interest in boxing was at best summer because he was annoyed to retire many times. He will probably take the rest of the year to solve his life and consider his return options from early 2026.

Don’t be surprised if Amanda Serrano fights again and retires

Serrano had a brilliant boxing career, which finally wore the fruit of her work in the last few years after signing the contract with Jake Paul’s most valuable promotions. Unfortunately, for Serrano she ended her trilogy with Katie Taylor 0-3 after abandoning the final decision of Ireland as the main July boxing event in Madison Square Garden in Novel York. But Serrano, soon 37 years, had a boxing career for 16 years, 51 fights and world championships in seven weight classes. There is really not much more for Serrano, except for its place in the MVP office as a chairwoman of the women’s boxing initiative.

Serrano recently irritated in social media that it would fall to 126 pounds, where the united champion is for the next fight. She could establish a meeting with the title of WBC, Tiara Brown or read the MVP fighter, such as the featherweight master Ellie Scotney. Each of them can be her swan from this sport. Take it with grain salt, however, because Serrano is a warrior in the heart and can fight for the next two years.

Don’t be surprised if Claressa Shields works with Jake Paul

Shields, the undisputed heavyweight champion, ends with challenges and needs something to enhance his career. It is almost good, to the extent that some people reject its size and knock her over the unknown opposition. Both Shields and Paul’s teams said that they are open to joint work, if it has a financial sense, and it may not be better time than now.

Thanks to the most valuable promotions, Super Middle Wweight Shadasia Green disturbing former rival Shields Savannah Marshall last month, the fight between Shields and Green is the most lucrative option for Shields. Woman No. 1 pound for ESPN pounds must fight at the largest available stages to stay in the first place in the minds of boxing fans, and the event promoted by Paul opened her to a up-to-date demographic group of fans. The ego will be put aside and the money will be transferred.

Do not be surprised if Terenka Crawford knocks down and defeats Canelo Alvarez

All conversations concerned Crawford, who moved up two weight classes to face Canelo and how challenging it would be to hurt the master of superpower medium weight. But the same was said when Crawford fought with Errol Spence and Steamrolling him in 2023. While Canelo is a much bigger challenge than Spence, there are several things in favor of Crawford. The decreasing power of Canelo is disturbing and although Crawford has never been known as high volume, there is certainly the possibility that he will land cleaner blows on flat Canelo.

As for the idea that “Bud” has no wounded Canelo, it should be noted that Crawford is largely based on the distribution and arrangement to surprise his opponent. All the last finishes of Crawford appeared courtesy of well -placed meters that caught opponents outside of shooting. Canelo may not be injured against Crawford, but there is a chance that he will affect the canvas for the first time in her career, if he is not cautious.

Tony Bellews Bold KO Prediction for Dubois vs Wardley 2: Yep, I Said It

Tony Bellew's Bold KO Prediction for Dubois vs Wardley 2: "Yep, I Said It"

Tony Bellew is going against the grain for tonight’s Daniel Dubois vs Fabio Wardley rematch.

The pair meet again just five months on from their thrilling first encounter, with Dubois now WBO champion having won the belt from Wardley via eleventh round stoppage.

After surviving two early knockdowns, the Londoner – who is now in his second stint as heavyweight titlist – took over the contest with a solid jab setting up thudding attacks that exhausted Wardley.

Though the Ipswich man stayed on his feet throughout, referee Howard Foster waved it off as the punishment because too much.

It is how the fight ended, and those last few rounds in which Dubois was largely dominating, that make him a strong favourite to retain his belt.

Giving his prediction to the BBCformer cruiserweight world champion Bellew backed Wardley to have success early again, but capitalise fully this time and end it.

“I’m going to be the difference. I am going to back Fabio Wardley by knockout within six rounds. Yep, I said [it]. I’m going for Fab within six.”

Dubois was on the canvas within ten seconds last time out, and took a knee in the third when hurt again.

Bellew has questioned Dubois’ resolve in the past, pointing to his stoppage loss to Joe Joyce as proof that there is a point he can be pushed to that he is not willing to go beyond. Many, however, will look to the first Wardley performance and disagree.

Both men recorded the highest weights of their careers on the scalessuggesting that neither will be changing the gameplan to a more measured affair, rather looking to engage in round 13 from the off tonight at London’s O2.

Peter Fury Shares Final Thoughts on Daniel Dubois vs Fabio Wardley 2: I Still Think That

Peter Fury Shares Final Thoughts on Daniel Dubois vs Fabio Wardley 2: "I Still Think That"

Top trainer Peter Fury has offered his expert analysis on the rematch between Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley, believing it is still a 50/50 fight.

Others, meanwhile, will argue that Dubois should be made a considerable favourite, based on how he was able to dismantle Wardley in their first encounter.

In order to do so, the ‘Dynamite’ puncher was compelled to climb off the canvas in rounds one and three, having been put down by blows to the top of his head.

Proceedings then became a little one-sided as Dubois, utilising his fundamentals, managed to score an 11th-round finish with his thudding jab and superior footwork.

Wardley, however, wasted little time before activating the rematch clause in their contract and, in turn, securing the chance to reclaim his WBO title at London’s O2 Arena tomorrow evening.

Many will argue that such a swift turnaround could lead to his downfall while, due to his power and toughness, others would suggest that the 31-year-old is always dangerous, no matter the opponent standing across from him.

As such, coach Fury has told Boxing King Media that, while Dubois is rightfully brimming with confidence, it would be foolish to entirely dismiss Wardley’s attributes.

“I think it’s a great heavyweight fight – Dubois has got heavy hands and a good jab as well, so it’ll be interesting.

“You’ve got to say Wardley’s got it all to do, because the confidence of Dubois will be high. And if Dubois’ super confident, he’s a problem.

“But let’s see – Wardley was able to hurt Dubois early on. I still think that fight is a 50/50 fight.”

If he emerges victorious against Wardley, then Dubois will likely be targeting a unification match with Agit Kabayel or Filip Hrgovic in 2027.
