Promotions of the highest rank and ESPN reportedly go in separate ways
Published
1 month agoon

By: Sean Crose
In what is probably not a surprise, it is not to the top -class promotion for anyone and ESPN, apparently separate ways when their partnership is legally ended this summer. While ESPN certainly put great matches there, the highest rank seemed to be pushed to the side by UFC. In a world where boxing is now all over the world by tensioning its muscles, the most critical American sports network has clearly lost interest in sweet science. Perhaps, if the highest rank had huge names, such as Tank Davis and Ryan Garcia in their stable things, could work differently. Although he has known names, such as Nayya Inoue, the highest rank does not seem much on the road to the crossover.
Of course, nothing is official yet, so you never know, but the report here – from the ring, first, and then others – seems to be widely accepted. In fact, it has never been a great partnership. Yes, in recent years there have been great fights, including more than one with the participation of Vasyl Lomachenko, but often combat cards did not start even tardy on Saturday evenings, on the east coast. Simply put, there were and there are better places for the highest rank. After all, the Bob Arum Helmed organization remains one of the most powerful boxing forces.
Considering this, sport certainly goes through a strange time that could take it exponentially or hurt if/when Saudi money ends. However, the Saudis deserve to be considered to be provided by the delivery of one main card on the other (I hope that the trend will continue). Indeed, he can replace Las Vegas as the heart and soul of this sport. However, this is not only intensive Saudi interest that change things into the head. In general, it is now a stream sport, not a television.
Not that streaming makes such a substantial difference. After all, a broadcast fight is a transmitting fight. Still, there are signs that the venerable way of doing things is over. It can be a good or bad thing again. Only time will show. In the meantime, there are many good fights to enjoy … Only you will not be able to watch them on ESPN soon. In this way, it is worth remembering that boxing turned out to be the most pliant sport from a decade after a decade until the 19th century.
There is no reason to think that the trend will not be continued.

Caleb Plant was present on Saturday evening for the match of Mikael Mayer versus Sandy Ryan in Fontainebleau Las Vegas. The match he said he liked and agreed with the unanimous decision granted to Mayer. Plant is preparing for the next set of the match, which is to be scheduled for May 31. He has not fought since September last year, when he defeated the invincible Trevor McCumby.
When asked about his upcoming fight, Plant replied, saying: “We are working on it now, I hope he would announce next week and be up to date.” When he pressed who potential opponents could be, he smiled and said: “Be on a regular basis.” Many thought that the fight against Edgar Berlang would be inevitable, because there were many verbal ones between them.
The latest and noteworthy will be on March 15, when Berlanga called the plant after defeating Jonathan Gonzalez -ortuz. He led a tiny singing “F*ck Plant”. However, it seems that Berlanga is changing now and instead he realizes the match against Jaime Munguia. He said that the match between him and Mungia will be a great fight. Mexico versus Puerto Rico. Munguia is to fight Canelo Alvarez versus William Scull in a rematch against Bruno Surace 3 May.
When asked about the potential fight between him and Berlang in the near future, Plant said: “Whenever he wants, whenever he wants, I’m not tough to find. Yes, I’m not tough to find.” Due to the bad blood between them, there is a great interest of fans in the potential fight between the plant and Berlanga. Both have observations of fans after the main matches with Canelo. These are the names of households and, if they are sold correctly, they can generate a vast fight.
Plant gained the respect of the Mexican fan base after his brave efforts against Canelo and Benavidez. He has the spirit of the warrior they love, and it was perceptible in his humorous fight with McCumba when they comforted him on his way to his technical victory. The fight against the McCumbby plant took place during the Mexican independence weekend at Undercard of Canelo-Berlanga.
Plant has a fan -friendly style, and Berlanga has seventeen knockouts in the first round. They would produce a full fight with history, which dates back to May 4, 2024, when bad blood began. Both were present for Canelo-Munguia weighing and had a quarrel in which the plant called Berlanga to fight.
Berlanga said that in September he would face Canelo and then he can face the plant. The plant still pressed him on the fight, and Berlanga said that he would knock him out. Since then, they go to each other in social media, in interviews and wherever they have a chance. Their bad blood will not be solved until they meet in a square circle. It will last until that day and return.

Can Crawford’s “trick” be overcome by Canelo? The theory of switching arum attitude questioned by Crawford’s last performance
Published

March 31, 2025
Promoter Bob Arum says that Crawford’s ability to change the hit of will “befuddle” Canelo Alvarez in September and predicts that his former warrior will defeat the Mexican star.
Posture switch strategy
Arum believes that the change of attitudes is that all cups must defeat Alvarez (62-2-2, 39 KO). If Crawford wins, changing all night, he could be fooled. This is not David Avaneyan or Jeff Horn, which he is going on.
This may require something more than the changing position of Terenca to defeat Canelo, because these things did not work well for the native Nebrask in his last fight with Israil Madrimov. He brightened, switching from Southpaw to the Orthodox. Madrimov repeatedly nailed him with his hands from both positions and looked as if he could not miss this right.
“I like Crawford in this fight. I think he is a better talent, a better athlete, a better boxer and I think he will win this fight,” said promoter Bob Arum to Sean ZittelAnticipating that Terenka Crawford will defeat the WBA, WBC and WBO Super Middle Wwweight Canelo Alvarez, if they fight on September 13.
Arum can be sentimental to Crawford, because he was his child from the beginning of his career, fighting the highest rank by 2021, so that the arum could talk to a warrior who spent 13 years in his company, it seems strange. Crawford was a family with the highest rank and he would probably be with them if he did not go to the Free Agent’s route after the victory over Shawn Porter in 2021. Interestingly, Crawford fought only three times since he left Arum, defeating David Avanes, Errola Spence and Israil Madrimov.
He should have been fighting much more than three times in four years of leaving the highest rank, but this reflects the lack of ambition. This inactivity will turn around and bite Crawford’s ass against Canelo, because you cannot be a diminutive warrior part -time at the age of 38 and expect that you will defeat the warrior of this caliber.
Arum forecast
“After the announcement I felt that Crawford would win. I told him:” It’s a great fight for you. You’ll win this fight. ” I do not think that he would take this kind of weight, “said Arum, when he was asked if he was an additional weight that puts off Terenca, slowing him against Alvarez.
Arum may not have recently followed Crawford, but it looks like it is packed for good feeding of 20 pounds and hit weights. He is still five months to continue the fight before fighting Alvarez in September, and until then it will probably be fine. He no longer looks like a slim, agile warrior, whom he was two years ago, when he took his best career with Errol Spence on July 29, 2023.
“In addition, Crawford has a occasional ability to be indifferent and switching from Southpaw to the Orthodox as the fight goes on. It will be Canelo. Like most fighters, he was not in this kind of opponent. I think that it was that that made it uncomplicated to fight Spence.
Canelo fought many fighters who can change positions in 20 years in which he fought as a professional. This will require much more than Terenka to defeat Canelo with his trick, such as changing attitudes. It worked on Errola Spence, because he lost his game so much from this car disaster in 2019 and it looked like he was not physically or mentally present when he fought Crawford in 2023. Spence operated with 25% capacity.
“A fighter when he trains, he generally trains Southpaw or Orthodox in sparring,” said Arum. “Now, if you fight a guy who goes smoothly with Southpaw to the Orthodox and is as effective as you train for it? It’s tough. You don’t get sparring partners who can do both. They are not around.
“Crawford, because he is a unique type of warrior that others did not see other warriors, and the ability that he must change, the fighters are not used to it. They don’t train to it,” said Arum, who asked who would win in the fight between Crawford and the main Floyd Mayweather Jr. “I think Crawford is a very, very special talent.
“It has nothing to do with his ability as a warrior. Perhaps his ability as a dispute, I can say. But as a warrior he is a special better guy,” said Arum.
Madrimov concerns
Crawford will have to significantly raise his game from the last performance against Israil Madrimov on August 3 last year to beat Canelo, because this fight was essentially a draw. He was aimed at a very good warrior who overtook him and went outside in the first nine rounds before he fell apart. Against Canelo Crawford will face a greater blow that will make him pay if he tries to fight aggressively.
Based on some things that Bud and his trainer, Brian “Bomac” McIntyre, spoke in interviews, focus on Canelo’s boxing, remaining out of reach, and tied him when he is close enough to land their great shots of power.

Does Crawford wear water for Canelo? Critics say that “respect” the excuse is hidden by the tilting of the powerful Benavidez alvarez
Published

March 31, 2025
Terenka Crawford sounded like apologeta Canelo Alvarez, turning on why the superstar decided not to fight David Benavidez in favor of the clash with him.
“Respect” angle
Crawford says “Alvarez’s Mexican monster” Niew Research “to such an extent that he will not give him a” payment “. However, Terenka appears as if it were simply wearing water In the case of Canelo, using the angle of “respect” as a smoke veil as a cover for him, which throws Benavidez and almost some embarrassing defeat.
All Benavidez has done this is a request for a fight and says that he thinks that he can beat Canelo. This is the same thing that Crawford did before he was chosen as an opponent of Alvarez. He made the same comments, but he was still chosen. In this way, you know that Canelo repealed Benvidez. It’s not about respect.
It’s about Canelo’s competition, avoiding competition. With Crawford he is an venerable, little guy who showed that he cannot move to 154 in his last fight in August last year. In other words, Crawford is sheltered. But with Benvidez it has the size, youth, power and combination striking to knock out Canelo and humiliate him in front of the entire civilized world.
Respect or fear?
“I think that Benavidez did not respect him to such an extent that he does not like him. In terms of business, it’s like” I won’t give you this check. I don’t give you this ticket. ” That’s why he said: “You want to pay.” – said Terenki Crawford to Pound 4 pounds of Kamaru and Henry YouTube channel about why Canelo Alvarez decided not to fight David Benavidez.
“Belt does not matter when you are in his situation. When you reach a certain peak in your career, you grow your seat belts.” I will give you these belts. ” Regardless, they will watch me, “said Crawford, justifying Canelo Gucking Benavidez.
Of course, Canelo does not care about the belts when it comes to Benavidez, because he will probably leave the WBC belt if the sanctioning authority tried to force him to take this fight when he was his obligatory contender.
