Harlem Eubank returned to the Brighton Center after his latest loss and did as he pleased, scoring welterweight points against Josh Wagner on Friday.

Eubank (22-1, 9 KO) faced Jack Catterall in July in Manchester and lost for the first time, while Canadian Wagner (19-2, 10 KO) was last in action for six rounds in May, stopping Juvenal Herrera in a round in Colombia.

After the first few rounds where Eubank had the upper hand, the hosts started to turn the screws and the visitors struggled to score anything noteworthy.

The 31-year-old increased the pressure in the fourth quarter and Wagner simply had no answers to allow Eubank to exploit his move to win the next session.

The pattern was set, and although Eubank caught a few shots in the seventh and eighth periods, he weathered the storm, with Wagner fading in the closing rounds as the Brighton man cruised to the finish line to win.

Two scores of 100-90 and the third of 99-91 reflected Eubank’s dominance.

Eubank called for a fight against the winner of Saturday’s WBO welterweight clash between Brian Norman Jr. Devin Haney and IBF champion Lewis Crocker, who was ringside.

A boxing match turns into a mass brawl when the boxer’s trainer is taken to the hospital

Published

on

A professional boxing world championship fight descended into chaos when a massive brawl broke out in the ring. Turkish Emirkhan Kalkhan and Russian Sergei Gorokhov faced off in the Besirli sports hall in the fight for the UBO world championship.

The tension reached a breaking point after the second round when Gorokhov secured victory over his opponent. The Russian was overjoyed and celebrated with his corner team before heading to Kalkhan to seemingly check how he was doing against his opponent.

A member of Kalkhan’s entourage then pushed Gorokhov away, before one of his cornermen lunged to deliver a thrust of his own. The situation quickly got out of control as both teams clashed in corner kicks, with spectators storming the ring to exchange punches and kicks.

Plastic chairs were thrown into the ring as a group of men attacked and kicked Coach Gorokhov. The boxer himself was left stunned as he desperately pleaded for an end to the violence before another group attacked him.

Falling to the canvas, Gorokhov was hit with chairs and subjected to a barrage of kicks before disappearing under a wave of enraged attackers. Meanwhile, a separate clip shows Gorokhov’s cornerback Igor Sudalainen lying on the floor and holding his head as security personnel and some of Kalkhana’s team tried to restore order.

After the incident, Gorokhov posted updates from a nearby hospital on social media. Sharing the message via the stories section of his Instagram account, he said: “Hello everyone. We are currently in hospital in Turkey.

“Ismail [trainer] he suffered a head injury and is currently undergoing an MRI. I got through it the least badly. The gloves helped protect me. Who saw the broadcast? “We were probably attacked by about 80 people.”

“They entered the ring and beat us after our great victory in the second round, where we knocked him out twice. However, the Turks behaved very badly.

“But thank God, everyone is alive. That’s what the fight was like, difficult. I’ll tell you later. We already have a police escort, we’ll go straight from the hotel to our rooms.

“I don’t think we’ll be spending the night there tonight. If anyone tries to pull a stunt, we’ll fly straight to Georgia. Then we’ll drive through Georgia overnight to Mineralnye Vody, and from there to Kaliningrad.”

“Thank you all for your support. We will be in touch. I will tell you everything tomorrow. World champion belt – we have a world champion in Russia, in Kaliningrad, in boxing. It was a very good fight.”

Gorokhov then posted another video on Instagram, confirming that he and his team had safely reached Georgia. He said: “We are in Georgia. We have the belt, we are champions. Thank you very much for your support, friends.”

Jarred Anderson’s return to the ring against Solomon Dacres was canceled just days later.

Dacres and Anderson were scheduled to face on May 9 in Fabio Wardley’s first world title defense against Daniel Dubois.

It looks like “Massive Baby” will continue to gain momentum after suffering his first career loss in 2024.

After a great start to his professional career and 17 impressive victories, Anderson took a gigantic risk in his fight against Martin Bakole in Los Angeles.

This acceleration did not go as planned, as Bakole stopped the American in the fifth round.

The American was forced to withdraw from competition for several weeks after suffering an injury during camp.

Anderson reportedly suffered a torn biceps, and the news was first broken by reporter Chris Mannix during the broadcast of Jarrell Miller’s win over Lenier Pero in Las Vegas.

Anderson, 26, recently signed a promotional deal with Frank Warren’s Queensberry Promotions, strengthening his existing relationship with Top Rank that he has been pursuing since his professional debut in 2019.

He last fought in a 10-round victory over Marios Kollias in February 2025, more than 14 months ago.

For now, no further information has been provided regarding a possible postponement of the fight.

For Dacres, it would be his first fight since his impressive decision victory over Vladyslav Sirenko.

Both Dacres and Anderson have only one loss to their name, and the fight between them will prove to be a great indicator of where each is at in their careers.

Dacres’ only loss came in the first round to David Adeleye in 2024, and he has only had one fight since that defeat.

Although the Anderson-Dacres fight has been canceled, the Manchester event will still go ahead as planned, with Fabio Wardley defending his WBO heavyweight title for the first time after winning the title with a stoppage victory over Joseph Parker.

Wardley remains undefeated and his opponent is Daniel Dubois, who has a 95% knockout rate.

Dubois is heading straight for another shot at the world title after being stopped by Oleksandr Usyk last July.

Wardley vs. Dubois it should be an epic fight, and the pair showed off their incredible knockout ability throughout their careers. The Ipswich fighter has wins over Justis Huni, Frazer Clarke and Joseph Parker, while Daniel Dubois has stopped Jarrell Miller, Filip Hrgovic and Anthony Joshua, so a stoppage seems the most likely outcome for the main event.

Dillian Whyte is eager to fight Joseph Parker again.

In 2018, Whyte and Parker played 12 invigorating rounds, with both hitting the canvas.

Whyte won his dramatic heavyweight fight by unanimous decision at the O2 Arena.

‘The Body Snatcher’ is now planning a rematch with the Recent Zealander, who is looking to clear his name after testing positive for cocaine following his October defeat to Fabio Wardley.

“There are a lot of good fights and Joseph Parker is one of them,” the 38-year-old said Ring Magazine.

“I would love to fight Joseph Parker, I think it’s a really good fight.

“He has to come back, he has to be cleared or whatever. I don’t know the situation.

“So in the meantime I have to stay busy and fight my way back, so let’s see.

“I feel like I still have a little bit to give, so let’s see what we can do to finish the season on a high.

“I’m training now and I want to come back in May or June.

“Now it’s just a matter of training and seeing what comes out on this kind of date.”

The former world title challenger from Brixton has not fought since a crushing first-round knockout defeat to rising contender Moses Itauma last August in Riyad.

Former world champion Parker won six times on spin before being stopped in the 11th round against Wardley, losing the WBO interim title and a shot at unified champion Oleksandr Usyk.

The 34-year-old says he is going through this process after failing the test and hopes it will be resolved soon.

“Let’s hope so [I’m back] soon,” Parker said Professional boxing fans.

“I’m just going through the process and practicing patience.

“We just have to be patient and learn from what they say happened.

“I know what happened and I handed over everything, so let’s see.”
