Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol
Artur Beterbiev became the undisputed lithe heavyweight champion, adding the WBA and IBO belts to his collection after a thrilling majority decision victory over Dmitry Bivol in Saudi Arabia.
Beterbiev (21-0, 20 KO) entered this fight on the back of 20 straight wins, winning a slew of world titles along the way, with the last one coming in January, beating Callum Smith in seven to Bivola (23-23-KO). 1, 12 KO) in his last fight in June, he stopped Malik Zanid in six rounds.
Bivol landed some decent counters and combinations in the first round, and after a serene second, the Russian was successful again, scoring more combinations in the third round.
However, Beterbiev moved forward and the fourth one increased the pressure, but his rival remained behind a tight guard.
39-year-old he was busy, but many of his punches were landing on Bivol’s gloves, though the sheer amount of work he was doing was starting to get him a few rounds.
Beterbiev began to apply pressure in the seventh set, landing several solid punches, but the 33-year-old WBA champion responded matter-of-factly, wobbling the unified champion with his left hand.
Beterbiev was told in his corner that he needed a knockout in the championship rounds and he responded to that advice as he had a very robust penultimate frame, landing several shots that troubled the tiring Bivol, but both boxers made it to the final bell in an extremely absorbing contest.
The 114-114 draw was broken by scores of 116-112 and 115-113 in favor of Beterbiev, who received the nod and walked away with all the belts.
Wardley destroys Clarke in the rematch
The long-awaited rematch between Fabio Wardley and Frazer Clarke ended emphatically as Wardley defended his British heavyweight title in less than a round.
The pair played at the O2 Arena in March in a thriller that ended in a draw, but Wardley (18-0-1, 17 KO) let the judges off the hook this time, defeating Clarke (8-1-1, 6 KO) with a barrage of weighty punches. that put him on shaky ground and he finished in style.
The right-hand hammer struck the Burton man’s senses and the referee waved his hand to end the fight.
Opetaia sails from Massey
Jai Opetaia did almost everything he wanted in his fight against Jack Massey, defending his IBF cruiserweight title for the first time in his second term as champion after the Briton threw in the towel in the sixth round.
Opetiaia (26-0, 20 KO) was in dominant form and although Massey (22-3, 12 KO) put up a brave challenge, he never actually took part in the fight and after being broken by punches to the head and body after the sixth hour, coach 31 -year-old Joe Gallagher found it necessary to withdraw his charge from the battle.
Eubank Jr burns Szeremeta
Chris Eubank Jr won the vacant IBO middleweight title against Kamil Szeremeta, scoring four knockouts in a seventh-round victory.
Szeremeta (25-3-2, 8 KO) landed a right hand in the first round, and in the sixth round he knocked him out with the same shot.
In the seventh round, the Pole lost twice more, and the referee wisely ended the action.
Eubank Jr (34-3, 25 KO) faced Conor Benn after the fight, with both hoping to reschedule the fight after it was infamously postponed to fight week in October 2022.
The Whittaker-Cameron fight ended in a strange draw
There was a controversial and bizarre ending in the lithe heavyweight division as Ben Whittaker and Liam Cameron (23-6-1, 10 KO) there was a technical draw after five rounds.
In the fifth set, both started aggressively clinching on the ropes and both fell out of the ring on the top rope.
Whittaker (8-0-1, 5 KO) performed worse, injured his leg and was unable to continue competing, and the fight was deemed an accidental foul.
The score of 58-57 for each fighter was deemed redundant as the third judge scored it 58-58 after five completed rounds.
Nicolson defeats Chapman
Skye Nicolson successfully defended her WBC featherweight world title for the second time, winning half the distance and scoring points over Raven Chapman (9-1, 2 KO).
Nicolson (12-0, 1 KO) defended her belt by two points 98-92 and third by a score of 99-91 in the historic first women’s world title fight in Saudi Arabia.
Super featherweight debutant Mohammed Alakel (1-0, KO0) started a winning four-round fight against Jesus Gonzalez (3-3, KO0) by scoring points.
Diego Paczeco defended the titles of WBC USA and WBO International in super medium weight against the invincible Steven Nelson in Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas, scoring clear points on Saturday.
Pachaco (23-0, 18 KO) was last seen in August, beating Macej Sulecki with arrows in the body in six rounds, while Nelson (20-1, 16 KO) also dropped out in the same month, defeating Marcos Vazquez Rodriguez in five rounds in Los Angeles.
Pakco began carefully because he devoted time to looking at the rival, who was already successful at the beginning, leaving forward and releasing his hands.
In the fourth round, Nelson took the cut with a brisk right hand of Pacharo and it seemed that this tilted the scales in favor of the 23-year-old.
Nelson had vision problems, which allowed Pasteco to make a few eye -catching counterattacks and combinations, especially in the seventh round, after which he slowly began to unscrew the screw as he struggled.
The player from Omah was stunned in the tenth round, but he showed courage and heart to continue shooting and gave his best to the last gong, where the result seemed inevitable.
Pakco defended the titles with three identical results 117-111 and was close to winning the title of world champion.
A player from Los Angeles is the number one claimant in the WBO organization to the United Master of Super Medium. Canelo Alvareza.
Cruz dominates over Salcido
Andy Cruz, a former amateur star, for the third time defended the title of IBF International in lightweight after a point victory over the Salcido Gamez Omar (20-2).
Cruz (5-0, 2 KO) dominated and won two results 98-92, and the third 99-91.
Mercado stops Pedraza
In the superior weight of the super delicate Ernesto Mercado (17-0, 16 KO) he made progress in his class and won the fourth round in front of the faded former world champion Jose Pedraza.
The accumulation of blows meant that Pedraza (29-7-1, 14 KO) landed on board and was unable to recover his legs sufficiently, and judge Robert Hoyle waved his hand to fight.

Rubalcava-Mercado kept a draw
The only player in the eighth round weighed 140 pounds, and Leonardo Rubalcava (9-0-1, 3 KO) and Israel Mercado fought for a majority draw.
Mercado (11-1-2, 7 KO) lost in the first round, and in the seventh round he was taken away from the punch from below, but two results 75-75 provided an impasse.
The third judge scored 76-74 in favor of Mercado.
Other Undercard card
In six rounds, Harley Mederos (8-0, 7 KO) won in the third round by knockout against Arturo de Isla (5-3-1, 4 KO) in lightweight, and Nishant Dev (1-0, 1 KO) Alton Wiggins (1-1-1) in the first round in super welterweight.

– Eddie Hearn (@eddiehearn) January 26, 2025
In the only four rounds of the struggle Zaquin Moses (2-0, 1 KO) forced Mario Garcia (3-1, 3 KO) to withdraw after the round of the clash in the super featherweight.
David Benavidez has reignited the war of words between himself and longtime rival Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.
Although a fight has not yet taken place between the two, Benavidez and Canelo have launched numerous verbal attacks on each other, mainly when the former fought in the super middleweight division.
After “The Mexican Monster” moved up to delicate heavyweight, things went tranquil between the pair for a while – but that has now changed.
Many in the sport believe that Alvarez is shying away from fighting his younger, bigger opponent, even though it is arguably the most financially lucrative fight for him.
And when Benavidez showed up The hustle and bustle of Miami this week he went on an X-rated tirade against the four-weight world champion.
“Honestly, I think Canelo is f*ckin’ f–king! This is just my opinion.
If we ever fight, this man will make well over $100 million.
“He says I have nothing to offer, that I’m a nobody and I need more experience.
“But if you’re going to make $100 million fighting someone who has no experience and all the crap they’re saying about me, why don’t you come in and get the large bucks?
“I’m not afraid of anyone!” I accept challenges. So Canelo and his fans say I bring nothing to the table – everyone is afraid, just like he is afraid.
“If he wants to prove that I’m not shit, come and prove it to everyone. It’s that plain.”
Unfortunately for Benavidez, it looks like the Alvarez fight will never happen as the Guadalajara fighter enters the twilight of his career.
Unified super middleweight champion “Canelo” has not boxed since his September win over Edgar Berlanga, although reports suggest he has agreed terms for a thrilling fight with pound-for-pound star Terence Crawford in September.
As for Benavidez, he will face the toughest test of his career on February 1, when he will lose his job faces the outstanding Cuban amateur David Morrell Jr for the “regular” and interim WBA delicate heavyweight world titles.
Daniel Dubois believes that Tyson Fury will return to the ring and claims that a fight between them may happen.
Fury ended hopes of All-British fights against the likes of Dubois and long-time rival Anthony Joshua after retiring last Monday, less than a month after his second successive defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.
However, “Dynamite” believes that his compatriot will return in a similar mood as when he retired in April 2022, only to return seven months later.
If the “Gypsy King” ends his final retirement, Dubois insists the fight with Joshua must happen, which has opened the door for him to face the winner.
“I think he will definitely come back,” said the 27-year-old talkSPORT.
“He’s always done that throughout his career, mind games and all that.
“So I think he will come back. He plays various characters. He will definitely come back.
“Get them in the ring [Joshua and Fury].
“I want to see them fight now.
“I punched Joshua so he had to fight Fury.
“I want to see what’s left between these two.
“And then maybe I’ll fight the winner.”
The Londoner knocked out “AJ” five rounds in September at Wembley Stadium and on February 22 in Riyad, he will defend the IBF world heavyweight title against Joseph Parker.
Dubois stormed the ring after Usyk’s rematch victory over Fury, calling for a rematch from their August 2023 clash.
The Londoner’s argument for wanting a rematch is based on a controversial low blow in the fifth round of the fight against the Ukrainian, which he believed was a legal shot.
“Usyk, I want to take revenge,” he said.
“Good job tonight.
“I want revenge for the last robbery.
“Let’s sort this out. Let’s go.
