Can Lamont Roach shock the world when he faces the only “tank” by Gervont Davis in Brooklyn Barclay’s Center on Saturday evening? Probably not, but this is a box in which everything seems capable. In addition, despite the fact that he is not perceived as the premiere of talent, such as Shakur Stevenson, there is no doubt that he is talented. At the age of 29, Renovit from Washington gathered a record of 25 wins in relation to one loser and one draw. What’s more, Roach can be electrifying when it requires this moment. Just ask Feargal McCory, Roach’s last opponent.
After showing significant defense skills for a high guard and criminal landing and exact blows, Roach detained McCory in the eighth of June last year- after shooting three knocking on his man. Of course, McCory is not a warrior like Ryan Garcia or Rolando Romero, both who were detained by Davis. Indeed, Jamel Herring, who defeated Roach at the end of 2019, was probably the most famed opponent of Roach. In addition, Davis is a destruction vehicle. After all, everyone except two out of thirty opponents of the man was stopped at a distance. Indeed, there is a reason why Baltimore’s native is popular.
Can Roach survive the blisters, Davis’ speed and accuracy? Many, if not the majority, say they can’t. Again, however, it is a box, a sport in which seemingly everything can happen. Indeed, everyone can have a bad night. However, the tank does not have one more. Whatever you can say about Davis, there is no doubt that he is a completely concentrated and disciplined competitor. The guy has more than talent. Showing mentally and physically is what the difference really makes – at least it turned out that this is the case with Davis.
Brian Norman Jr., WBO welterweight master, says that he wants to continue to unite with WBC Master Mario Barrios to capture his prestigious belt and become a champion of two stripes.
Norman Jr. (27-0, 21 KO) wants to take the WBC belt from Barrios (29-2-1, 18 KO), and then face the winner on April 12 between WBA Master Eimantas Stanionis and IBF champion Jaron “Boots” Ennis for the undisputed championship. If everything goes as Brian Jr. plans, he keeps all four lanes in the next two fights.
Norman’s goal: Barrios first
“This is a fight that I want most, because united and then undisputed, then right after that,” said Brian Norman Jr. Sean Zittel Asked if he wants to fight the WBC WBC welterweight champion, Mario Barrios. “Besides, we all know that the legends in this game have a WBC belt. I want to have this belt.”
Norman Jr. He should focus on a more realistic fight for himself against 2 WBO Jin Sasaki. This is an effortless fight for Brian Jr. and his promoters in the highest rank. There is also a lot of money that would be available in this fight if they take them in Japan.
“This green belt, we all need it in our lives. This is a fight I want the most, because I can have a WBC and WBO belt. Then whoever wins the fight on April 12 [between IBF 147-lb Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis and WBA champ Eimantas Stanionis]. Boom, the undisputed fight so quickly – said Norman Jr.
It would be shoes and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, if Norman Jr. He got to Barrios before they did it and released him from the WBC belt. This would put shoes in a position in which he would negotiate equal conditions with the master of two stripes Norman Jr. Things would be completely different if he had talks about two titles only for Norman Jr.
“Because of the work I put in. Of course, he comes with everything he has. He is a dog. I am everything, and then a little,” said Norman Jr. Asked why he defeated Mario Barrios. “So it’s just not enough.”
Norman Jr. He would be a great favorite against Barrios if he could have a chance to fight him. We saw Barrios fought in his last fight with Abeł Ramos, and he was kept at a controversial 12-round draw in their clash on November 15 last year at AT & Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Many boxing fans won Ramos in this fight. Barrio did not look better than him when he was beaten by Keitth Thurman in 2022.
Do you stop Barrios?
“Yes, I definitely stop him. No matter what the longer the fight, the better I get. I proved that in Giovani [Santillan] Fight, and I started to prove it in this fight – said Norman Jr. Asked if he would stop Barrios. “I was starting to prove that in this fight [Derreck Cuevas]But he couldn’t stand it. The longer the fight lasts, the better.
“Let’s deal with the fact that you haven’t fought for a minute, I think I am here. I just finished fighting. If necessary we can fall,” Nornan Jr. said when he was asked if he had news for Barrios.
“It’s very inevitable [Norman Jr. and Jaron Ennis fighting]. Many people say that we are the best two welterweight. So he has to go down. “
It doesn’t look likely that Norman Jr. He will have the opportunity to fight Barrios, because of course he is kept on ice as long as Money, Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney or Teofimo Lopez does not look at him. Barrios’ promoters know better than match him to Norman Jr., because the chances are high that he lost. Jaron “Boots” Ennis may have similar problems, trying to fight Barrios, unless his promoters or Saudis do not offer him a lot of payments.
2020 Olympic silver medalist massive Richard Torrez Jr. He says he was impressed by the strength of Terenka Crawford, when they briefly struggled with the cuisine of Buda. Crawford was better than over 230 lb Torrez Jr. (12-0, 11 KO). Two fighters have never paired in a boxing ring.

The size and power of Torrez Jr. Of course, they would be too gigantic for Crawford, who recently moved to 154 and had no pop in his blows. Torrez Jr. He says that he is on the side of Crawford in his fight with the unified Master of the super medium weight Canelo Alvarez in September. He does not say who he thinks he will win, but from the sounds he hopes that it will be Terence.
The 25-year-old chapter for heavyweight Torrez JR fights on Saturday evening, April 15, against Guido Vianelllo (13-2-1, 11 KO) in a ten-end fight, live on ESPN+ with Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas.
Crawford’s power
“I am a Crawford team, but I am a driving fan or Die Canelo. But to say this, I intend a little more towards the USA, but I am excited to fight,” said Richad Richard Torrez Jr. Sean ZittelLeaning towards Terenka Crawford, defeating Canelo Alvarez in September.
Crawford takes a gigantic step up, passing from 154 to 168 to fight what many consider player No. 1 in Super Middle Wweight, Canelo. This is a great task before Bud, because he just got up from 147 to 154 August 3 last year after he was sitting from the ring for a year.
He did not look sturdy on this younger medium weight against Israil Madrimov and almost lost. Now Crawford is moving on two divisions to face Canelo after a year outside the ring. In September he will be 38 years vintage, which makes him even more complex. To some extent, aging in boxing can lend a hand, but not when the warrior is approaching 40. It works against them at this point.
“He appeared some time ago:” Oh, Crawford defeated Richard Torrez in wrestling, “and I got a few views on this topic”, Sid Torrez Jr.. “I just want to point out that I did not know that we were fighting tough. We dealt with his kitchen and he said:” Let us let what we have. ” Suddenly he got a closure at me, and I thought, “Oh, that’s the end.”
“As soon as he got this castle on me, I thought:” Okay, I finished. ” So he is very sturdy, but we have never got into the ring before, but I love his defense for how he can do it.
Shakur Stevenson has published his reaction to reported 340,000 PPV purchases generated for the event on February 22, led by Artur Beterbiv vs. Dmitry Bivol 2 Rematch in Riyadh.
Interestingly, Stevenson seemed to attribute the success of the event after one of his glazed followers said that he “silenced critics” using “PPV Hits 340,000 Buys”. He tried to delight the glory.
The main draw of the event
People who ordered the Beterbiv-Bivol 2 event almost certainly did it because they wanted to see the headlining. Shakur’s presence on the card very little fans’ interest, even before his originally planned opponent, Floyd Schofield, withdrew from the fight because of a mysterious disease.
The reality is that the featherlight champion of WBC Stevenson (23-0, 11 Kos) played a very compact role in the success of February 22 events at Dazn PPV, because his fight with an electrician, Josh Padley, was buried in the fight against Shakur’s clothes with the little-known warrior, Padley (15-1, 4 Kos). It was just to take a place.
They were global PPV numbers, not US figurines. American shopping is said 50k, which are beyond terrible. To be so low, he signals that fans of American boxing perceived this event as unworthy orders, even after a reasonable base of the basement of USD 25.99.
Shakur is not a warrior paid at the sight and it is likely that he will never be, because his combat style is not that US fans are interested in watching. He is not a knockout, and running around the ring he does led him to boo in his fights.
Fortunately, Stevenson was not booed in Riyadh in February last year, but this is because the fans are polite. They probably booed quietly in their heads.
