Promoter Eddie Hearn predicts that weighty weight claimant Filip Hrgovic will break Joe Joyce “Inside Three or Four Runs” on Saturday, April 5, on a live cooperative in Manchester in England.

Joyce: Used?

Hearn believes that Joyce’s resistance has decreased from his two knockout losses from Zhilei Zhang and thousands of sparring rounds he did over the years. He notes that the blows that Veteran Derek Chisora ​​hurt 39-year-old Joyce in their fight last summer on July 27, he would never have done it to him before in his career.

Saturday’s Joyce event vs. Hrgovic will be shown live in Dazn. The main card starts at 14.00 et/11 in the morning PT, and the main ring of the event goes around 17:00 et/2 pm entitled

“He had a very close fight with Derek Chisor. No knocking out [in round nine]It would be very close – said the promoter Eddie Hearn Stamping ground About the recent defeat of Joe Joyce with a 41-year-old Veteran Derek Chisory on July 27 last year.

“Derek Chisora ​​is now mandatory for [IBF heavyweight] World Championship title. He just defeated Otto Wallin. [Hearn makes a face, giving his thoughts on Derek being the IBF mandatory to fight for a world title.]”

The arrows with which Joyce was hit against Chisorie were caused by the fact that he fought too close, leaving defense and was leisurely. He fought him wrong. A faster warrior would destroy Chisora ​​inside, but Joyce is so leisurely at this stage of his career that he was defenseless.

It was still a close fight with the result determined by Chisor, who shot Chisor, but Joyce should not lose the warrior at this level. At best, he would beat any version of Chisora.

Impact resistance

“The problem concerns some warriors, and Joe is a good example. Joe was always leisurely in the ring. He never looked like this sensational, qualified warrior,” said Hearn. “In the past he was very tough, it can hit, he is a immense nodule and has a great chin. As his career progressed, his impact resistance has changed.

“Shots that hurt him against Chisorie had never hurt him before. Two [Zhilei] Zhang defeats thousands of rounds of weighty sparring were a problem. If you want to predict, he [Joyce] On Saturday he will be well defeated and I think it will be in three or four rounds, said Hearn.

Joyce was knocked out twice in the first round during his amateur career in 2013. However, he was able to return from these losses and avoid knocking until he met Zhilei Zhang in 2023.

There is no shame when he was knocked out by a great puncher, such as Zhang, because he would do the same with Anthony Joshua if he was associated with similar blows. Zhang is the only guy who stopped Joyce in professionals. In the defeat of the juggernaut against Chisorie, he was never threatened with knocking out. He was dropped in ninth place, but it was more knocking down.

HRGOVICA FREE

Hrgovic says that Joyce is now “antique”, does not look good and must “retire” after the fight on Saturday evening. Of course, Filip is on the same boat, he was knocked out in his last fight and wounded in the match against Demesey McKean on August 12, 2023.

Hrgovic defeated in his last fight, he was eliminated in the eighth round by Daniel Dubois on June 1 last year. If Joyce can stay long enough to land weighty arrows, he can wear Hrgovic to get space. Dubois is also not the fastest guy, but he forced the tempo at the Hrgovita who wore him.

World champion claims Conor Benn pulled out of fight after ‘setting up the whole deal’

World champion says Conor Benn pulled out of fight after the ‘whole deal was set up’

Conor Benn could be ready for a world title fight against Ryan Garcia, but there is one reigning world champion who claims the Briton recently pulled out of a title shot even though “the whole deal has already been done.”

Benn made his Zuffa Boxing debut earlier this month. defeating Regis Prograis in a 150-pound catchweight bout – his first fight at sub-154 pounds in four years – and now he looks ready to fight for world titles at welterweight.

Although his position as mandatory challenger for the WBC title put him in line to face Garcia, WBA 147-pound champion Rolando Romero claimed that Benn had withdrawn from the title fight.

I’m talking to Fighting Hub TV“Rolly” explained why he doubted the Garcia fight would happen and revealed that he expected to fight Benn until “The Destroyer” changed his mind.

“Conor Benn waived me, we had the whole deal done, we were supposed to fight on May 30 in Fresh York for my world title, and then he just disappeared out of nowhere.

Conor Benn was there begging to fight me. By the way, we already had everything planned, but he’s in Fresh York trying to create all this fuss and stuff – he did it for advantage. Same with this, he can do this with Ryan too to gain strength.

“They’re out there trying to do all this stuff, I don’t do this imitation beef. That throws me off, you go and do all this imitation beef and then you come here and act like a gigantic, tough guy and then you run away and don’t fight.”

“Maybe he was doing it with Ryan because Ryan would have knocked him out cool.”

Garcia and Benn could collide this summer in Las Vegas when Benn returns to the welterweight division in a direct world title fight.

Jermell Charlo picks Tim Tszyu to defeat Errol Spence Jr

Charlo then launched into a longer explanation, questioning what version of Spence would emerge after his years outside the ring and claiming that style favored Tszyu.

“He has little defense. Errol will come in softly. He doesn’t really move his head. Tim moves his head. He throws a few stone hay shots. “I just follow my fighting style and be realistic.”

Jermell looked like a war veteran and described the fight, giving reasons why he chose Tszyu to beat Spence.

For years, these two towers were the “Twin Towers” of Derrick James’ gym in Dallas. They shared celebrations, sweat and secrets. The problem is that Errol was very vocal about these sessions, essentially telling the world that he was “teaching” Jermell.

For a guy like Charlo, who carries enormous pride and has built his “Lions Only” brand on being the alpha, having a former teammate claim dominance over him is a stain he can’t wash off in a sanctioned fight.

Having never fought professionally, these gym stories are the only narrative that exists and you have to wonder if it’s still eating at him.

Charlo also indicated the location, with the fight expected to take place in Australia.

“He’s going to Australia there. I see Tim Tszyu winning that fight,” Jermell said.

X is having a field day because Charlo looks like a man who sat in a dim room and watched Spence’s training videos over and over again. Fans call this the “villain arc” energy. He spoke quickly, louder and louder, and seemed personally interested in the answer.

During the prophecy, Jermell had a diabolical look in his eyes, as if he were performing a technical exorcism on his elderly rival.

When he has such wide eyes and high energy intensity, he tends to rely on his “Only Lions” personality, which thrives on perceived disrespect. In this case, the disrespect is the years in which Errol Spence Jr. he claimed to be the “substantial brother” at the gym.

“I don’t have to fight Errol Spence and I don’t care about fighting Errol Spence,” Jermell said.

Jermell is essentially using Tim Tszyu as a proxy. Since Charlo hasn’t fought at 154 pounds since 2022, he needs Spence to lose to someone else to prove that the elderly era (the Derrick James era) is over. If Tszyu destroys Spence, it will validate Charlo’s technical criticism and make his inactivity look like a calculated move rather than a decline.

Roy Jones Jr sums up Tyson Fury’s chances of beating top-ranked Lennox Lewis

Roy Jones Jr sums up Tyson Fury’s chances of beating a prime Lennox Lewis

Britain has produced some great heavyweights in recent years, ending an almost century-long curse and seeing success in the division ever since. Predicting the outcome of the clash between two of the best fighters in the country, Lennox Lewis and Tyson Fury, Roy Jones Jr said it would be a “great fight”.

Bob Fitzsimmons became the first British world heavyweight champion in 1897, and he and Jones remain the only two fighters in boxing history to have won both middleweight and heavyweight world titles.

However, Great Britain struggled for success in the division after the Fitzsimmons fight, unable to claim heavyweight supremacy until Lennox Lewis became WBC world champion in 1992. Britain has since crowned its title 11th world heavyweight championFabio Wardley, who follows in the footsteps of Fury and Anthony Joshua.

In an interview with Grosvenor CasinoJones said he would give Lewis an advantage over the “Gypsy King” if they met in their prime.

“Tyson Fury vs. Lennox Lewis? That would be a great fight, but my first thought was Lennox Lewis because of his power. But my second thought was also that Tyson Fury was great at making adjustments. I would go with Lennox Lewis.”

At least one heavyweight world title is expected to remain in a Briton’s hands for some time, with Daniel Dubois scheduled to face another Briton, Fabio Wardley, for the WBO belt next month.

In the meantime, we hope 21-year-old Moses Itauma can continue Britain’s success for many years to come, with the youngster considered by many to be the hottest prospect in boxing.

As for Fury, he is focused on the UK-wide megafight with Joshua – their own ‘Battle of Britain’ after Lennox fought Frank Bruno in 1993.
