Anthony Cacace ends the return of Leigh Wood with the nine Rune TKO
Published
4 hours agoon

Anthony Cacace continued his handsome form with winning in the 9th round of Leigh Wood, who survived the painful end of returning after a 19-month absence.
Cacace (24-1, 9 Kos), 36, sealed the victory after they forced the count in round 9, and then followed the cruel attack, which prompted the corner of Wood to throw the towel and stop the clash of two former world champions in Motorpoint Arena Nottingham in England.
During the third subsequent fight, Cacace defeated either the prevailing world champion or former world champion after transforming his delayed flourishing career over the past year. Cacace emerged from relative vagueness to win the title of IBF champion a year ago, and then made one defense against giving up the belt in January. It was another brilliant performance of the North Irishman.
With its growth and reach, in this form, Cacace is a hazardous pretender for each of the world juniors of delicate masters.
“I took this fight only for money, and the money was twice as much [IBF mandatory challenger Eduardo] Nunez, that’s why I was here in Nottingham tonight.
“Show me the money, I will travel everywhere, I’m 36 years ancient. I will fight it [vs. WBC world champion O’Shaquie Foster] next week.”
Frank Warren, a promotion promotion of Queensberry, says that Cacace will fight in his hometown of Belfast in Northern Ireland.
But in the case of Wood (28-4, 17 KO), defeating his junior delicate debut after a long release can make him consider retirement when he approaches his 37th birthday in August.
“I don’t want to pronounce, it was more hard than usual,” said Wood.
“I feel that I am much stronger in a featherweight, where it was a even pitch tonight. There was no shame when she lost to him.
“I’m not going to make decisions on the spot [about retirement]. “
Wood was unable to create his heroic past.
Wood knocked out Can XU in the last round of the WBA World title in July 2021, and then did the same to Michael Conlan at Fight of the Year in 2022. Then, in his last fight, Wood comes from a losing position to stop the former champion Josh Warrington in round 7 in October 2023.
Wood collects dust since winning over Warrington due to injury and long -term waiting for his younger delicate debut.
While Wood was gone, Cacace’s career started with a delay. Cacace gave up the IBF world, which he won against Joe Cordin in May 2024 to fight Wood. In September, he unanimously spoke Warrington, and the last activity meant that he looked much sharper than Wood.
They both began to box from an orthodox attitude and focused on establishing their stabs, but in the 2nd round Kocia was more risky when he landed excessively on his forehead.
Cacace, who had three inches and four -inch advantages of reach, broke the guard Wooder with the right upper top in round 3, and then a moment later a left hook landed.
The two -time World Feather champion Wood, who was roared by his fans of his hometown in Nottingham, answered with his left hook at the end of the 3rd round, but in general he tried to get close enough to land on the early rounds.
Wood produced his best in round 4 with a more busy stab and closed the upper round. But Cacace resumed control, and in the 6th round a man from Belfast punished wood with a long stab and upper left mining from close range.
Cacace changed his attitude and slid around the ring when he fired stabbing stabs and put points.
The Northern Irishman sealed the victory when he started attacking in round 9 and it was too much for Wood, which he received when he was sent back on the ropes after nailing the miniature upper right and left hook.
He followed the piercing of blows after Cacace. After a series of hooks and the upper Kakas, he unloaded the left to the solar plexus, which wounded the wood and sent it back. When Cacace was chasing the wood around the ring to land on Ko, the English corner threw a towel to stop the fight.

Hang-DOG appearance: exclusion of Canelo signals trouble with motivated Crawford money

. Hang-dog look Canelo Alvarez stood next to Terenka Crawford after his fight with William Scullem on May 3, a warrior appeared who is uninvolved, unmistyed at their start of September 12.
Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KO) looked sorrowful and elderly. Crawford is a fight that Canelo doesn’t really want, but he takes her because of the pressure and money he received. It is effortless to read Canelo.
Mountain Man?
It can be said that he was dissatisfied with his performance against Scull because he looked needy and knew yes. He is a warrior who would destroy Alvarez in the first years from 2016 to 2021. He couldn’t do it and looked elderly like hills in this fight. If Crawford wins, Canelo will ruin. Can react how Ted Kaczyński And withdraw from society to hide in the mountains.
Some people react in a shame in different ways, hiding. That Canelo would lose with a smaller, older warrior than he, like Crawford, it would be complex pills. I saw him holding in the cabin in the mountains, such as Kaczyński, suffocating with loss and tortured.
This performance could break Canelo’s faith, forcing him to face reality that he was not a adolescent warrior, who was many years ago when he fought Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Shane Mosley.
Contrast in desire
This is a classic appearance of an unmotivated person who doubts in age. Crawford is also elderly, but his motivation seems to be more about money in this inventive circus fight. He did not lose his sleep if he was beaten because he has a built -in excuse. He moves up two weight classes at the age of 38.
The money is about what it is all about. If he believed that he could really do it, he would move to 168 and fight the best warrior in the division as tuning. I don’t want any part of the tuning. It is masked on what he focuses on this fight – money.

May 10, 2025
Almost a year has passed since Emanuel “El Vaquero” Navarrete (39-2-1, 32 KO) challenged Denys Berinchyk at the WBO Lightweight Free Championship, fighting him on May 18 at San Diego. Navarrete lost the match that attributed his hand injury. He repaired his hand and then strongly beat Oscar Valdez in December, leaving doubts that he returned 100 percent. Now he returns to San Diego and wants to defend his featherlight title against veteran Charly Suarez (18-0, 10 KO).
At the age of 36, Suarez knows that this could be his last opportunity in the title. He will want to take over a moment and do everything in his power to get the title. He has a discouraging task, in the face of a power hit with an awkward style. Navarrete incapacitated Valdez and punished him with his power. The apply of both hands gave him the full apply of his arsenal and showed up in the ring. Dropping Valdez many times. Navarrete is a power power power, on average 43.4 power beats per round with a percentage of 36.4 (compubox). If he sees defects in defense of the opponent, his output power.
Yohan Vasquez was able to push Suarez in the match. He told him to fight on the back foot. Although he won the match with a unanimous decision, it was not the best Suarez performance. Yohan, with decent power, revealed defensive defects of Suarez. Suarez also slows down in the direction of behind schedule rounds. Navarrete can reveal the penetration defense of Suarez and force him to fight on the back foot for a full match.
El Vaquero tried to earn the weight of the fight throughout his career. He seemed ready to go to a slight weight against Berinchyk, but after the failure to lose with him, he decided to return to Junior Lightweight. During yesterday’s weighing, its initial weight was 130.4 pounds. It took him an hour and a half with five additional attempts to reach the target weight of 130 pounds. An additional four ounces put unnecessary stress on his body, creating a feverish race against the clock. Navarrete received two hours for weight loss and weight loss was achieved before allocated time. What impact, if at all, has this on his performance in Ringie. As mentioned earlier, he had weight problems in the past; Four ounces were minimal compared to his past fights.
Because both warriors reach a weight limit of 130 pounds, it will be for the title. The match itself will not disappoint entertainment. Suarez likes to exchange and stay inside. The question is: how long will it stick to the power like Navarrete?
Emanuel looks prepared for the next star performance against the aging warrior. His awkward angles of impact are a arduous challenge for Suarez to defend.

Union offer Janibek 2025: Aiming at Adames and Lara before the potential fight of Canelo
Published
6 hours agoon
May 10, 2025
Janibek Alimkhanuly (17-0, 12 KO) mapped his plans for this year, focused on uniform fights with medium weight champions Carlos Adames and Erisland Lara to achieve his goal, which is the undisputed master. Then in 2026 Janibek says that he will move up to challenge Canelo Alvarez to become the undisputed champion in Super Middle Wweight.
Obstacles in negotiations
If Janibek fails to fight Adames and Erisland this year, he should consider reducing losses and immediately go to 168 to put himself in able to fight Canelo. If Terenka Crawford gets four lanes in the Super Middle Wweight, he will never agree to fight Janibek because it is not popular enough.
Olympian Alimkhululy 2016 has no significant victories in its nine -year CV. Despite this, Janibek can earn more money in a medium supercer than in a dead, idle weight class 160 pounds. It would still be better to get up if he is unable to get a clash of union with Adames or Lara.
The IBF and WBO MIDDLE champion Alimkhanuly and WBC Champ Adames (24-1-1, 18 KO) are supposedly in negotiations. They were mentioned as potentially fighting on the Manny Pacquiao vs. Mario Barrios on July 19 on the PBC PPV card in Las Vegas. If the fight was made, Janibek vs. Adames would be a great addition to the party and can easily overshadow this clash.
Janibek’s promoters in the highest rank may have problems negotiating the fight with the WBA master Erislanda Lara (31-3.19 KO), because he did not participate in a risky battle from the moment his fight against Canelo Alvarez in 2014. At the age of 42, he may have a reluctance to take part in a secured impact, such as southern Plad Alimkhnelia.
Lara may feel that it is better to maintain her WBA title and continue defending titles at a low level against warriors, such as Danny Garcia, Gary “Spike” O’Sullivan and Michael Zefer. The Cuban opposition Southpaw Erislanda since the winner of the WBA 160-LB title in May 2021 was embarrassingly bad. The face of gold can be broken from this form with uncomplicated opposition to face the much younger and powerful Janibek in unification.
Narrow opposition
32 -year -old Janibek did not fight the great opposition either. In its four four fights there are these uncomplicated traces:
– Anauel by Missangue
– Andrei Michhailovich
– Vincenzo Gualtieri
– Steven Butler
This year I take off Carlos and get my third title. Then I will retire Lara. And in May next year I come from Canelo to become the undisputed champion of both divisions! Inshallah! pic.twitter.com/pajlzixsb
