And so Mark Magsayo is back:

He knocks out Bryan Mercado in just 2 rounds. It is reported that this is a get busy fight for him. But he shows his talent again, but this time it was with a body shot. Hopefully, the Filipino could be given another chance to fight for the belt.

But Magsayo is campaigning at 130 lbs right?

So it's very hard weight class, you have Emmanuel Navarette leading this division. And then we have O'Shaquie Foster and Lamont Roach (who will be fighting Tank Davis), as well in the mix. Although it's good to see Magsayo slowly climbing up and has been ranked in 4 boxing bodies. I think he needs one more fight here, a solid opponent who is rank in the top 3 and if he wins, then that could be his perfect opportunity.

It looks like you have thoroughly analysed the match before picking Akhmadaliev to win, but indeed if you look at what he has shown in each of his fights so far, it is certainly a smart decision to choose to bet on Akhmadaliev, especially if we want to find higher betting value in the fight, Akhmadaliev have excellent technical skills and the ability to survive in a long fight, so that could be an important factor if Espinoza provides strong resistance in the fight later.

Anyone who follows and is fan of boxing must know that Akhmadaliev has really hard left-handed punch, it like deadly combination punch so it natural that every fight Akhmadaliev has good chance of winning by KO.
After this win Eddie Hearn tried to get Inoue to fight Akhmadaliev because they were eyeing the undisputed super bantamweight title that Inoue has, but we all know how Inoue avoids every fight he doesn't want.
Akhmadaliev will be an easy fighter to get the super bantamweight title if Inoue moves up division later.

There was a big upset as Jaime Munguia was knockout by Bruno Surace in his hometown of Tijuana, Mexico.

Munguia was a huge favorite going into this fight and he has been looking to fight rival Puerto Rico's Edgar Berlanga after this one. But it's obvious that it might not happen for now, as Munguia will have to go back to the drawing board.

So this is a big challenge for him, but I think he can still make a name, he is still very young and maybe we can see a rematch between the two.

I just watched a video on Facebook regarding the highlights of the fight, and surely, this is an upset especially for Munguia that's fighting on his own hometown.
I will call it, but this is the "UPSET OF THE YEAR" fight candidate.

I don't know if it's just me though, but it seems like the referee was too fast in counting when Munguia got knocked down, but nevertheless, that right hook really stunned him that he didn't beat the count. Well, I counted myself as well at the start of the knockdown, and I would say that he's a bit fast. Also, for me, it's too fast to waive his hand signaling that he can't fight anymore. I mean after counting to 9, he immediately waived his hand. Well, I guess the referee knows more than I am, but it's a big upset indeed.

Rematch for sure will happen next year before fighting Berlanga. It's just very frustrating if you're a fan of Munguia to see your fighter losing in your own hometown. All of the fans are stunned when they see it, and it's very quiet in the arena. Cheesy

Yeah, I do agree, this could be the upset of the year, as majority thought including myself that this is going to be an easy fight for Munguia. And this fight is in front of hometown and so he did good in the early stages as he knockdown Surace in round 2.

But Surace was still standing and was not ready to give up. And so Munguia was very careless during that round as he put his hands down and not playing defense. And Surace counter him with a big right. I guess the stock of Munguia has went down from this big upset. And I'm seeing that his lost to Canelo Alvarez was big as he was not the same anymore, specially his chin.

Murodjon Akhmadaliev knockout Espinoza in round 3, so there is no decision or fight going into distance.

^ I checked the odds on this fight, and it shows the Murodjon Akhmadaliev is huge favorite. I think I will go with Akhmadaliev here by decision, the knockout was not that attractive at 1.40. I do hope that Espinoza will come with heavy hands and so we can see how Murodjon will handle that kind of power and maybe the fight going into distance.

The odds for Murodjon Akhmadaliev by decision is 3.x so that is huge but obviously, it's a big risk. So let's see, again, Espinoza might come firing very early in the fight and Murodjon doing the counter punching. Best of luck to those who are going to bet on this fight.

There was a major upset tonight as Jaime Munguia got knocked out in his hometown of Tijuana. His opponent, Bruno Surace, only had 4 knockouts in his previous 27 fights. Surace looked very outmatched and was losing every round, but as we know, Munguia is very careless with his defense. Tonight it came back to bite him in a classic “cherry pick gone wrong” moment.

I really haven't paid that much attention to boxing in years. My favorite kind of boxing is when the big boys are fighting and when they are good. Holyfield, Tyson, Lennox Lew etc. However I have tuned in, shamefully , to a couple of that doucher's fights. Is he even close to being ready to fight a legitimate boxer or is that just never going to happen? I'm guess that he really gains nothing from a loss.

I'm curious though, where are his match drawing, as in number of people watching/attended? Are there legit pro boxers beating him out in category?

If the douche you are referring to is Jake Paul, I don’t believe he will fight a legitimate opponent until he is ready to cash out and move on from the sport. He will probably continue fighting weaker opponents until Canelo has aged a bit more and that will be his last fight. An older and smaller Canelo still beats him convincingly in my opinion.

As far as drawing power, Jake Paul is a bigger star than any boxer outside of Canelo, and even then it might be debatable after Jake, along with Mike Tyson, broke the state of Texas’ records for attendance and revenue which was previously held by Canelo.

Murodjon Akhmadaliev and Ricardo Espinoza fight, here is the official weigh-in,

Both make the weight, Murodjon Akhmadaliev (121lbs) vs Ricardo Espinoza Franco (121.6lbs).

So let's see if MJ Akhmadaliev can get back into the picture in the super bantamweight division. It's not that Inoue doesn't want to fight or has duck him, it's that Inoue has better plans and that he will be fighting in the US next year.

And with that, if he vacated the belt, Akhmadaliev might be another fighting that will be given the chance since he is a former champion. So this is a test that he needs to pass in order to be in the contention next year.

@Yaunfitda. If master Turki finds a very acceptable opponent for Bud Crawford who also has a big name, this will certainly cause and begin Canelo's insignificance for the fans in the sport of boxing very much similar to Tank Davis. Their revenue on their events will decrease and this is where master Turki and uncle Dana can make them an offer to force them to fight the best challengers hehehehe.

In any case, according to social media Ansem vs. Bitboy was a draw. These are the highlights of the fight.

@Yaunfitda. However, Canelo's anger on Golden Boy and his anger on master Turki is very different because why would Canelo be truly angry if master Turki's criticism is very much true? The fans are shouting for Canelo vs. Benavidez because this is the best challenger for Canelo and Canelo will be angry if he is being criticized for avoiding Benavidez? Hehehehe this is very headshaking.

In any case, uncle Dana and master Turki will certainly make boxing great again heheheh.

Simple: he doesn't take this constructive criticism lightly, maybe he feel that he is being pin-pointed by Turki himself and so it's a lose-lose situation. His defense is that whoever he fights, there will be criticism on him.

I agree that the criticism is true and as fans we wanted Canelo vs Benavidez, and when he says that he doesn't want to fight another Mexican when he just fought Jaime Munguia two fights ago? So for me, Canelo might not happen if Canelo head is too big and doesn't want to accept the constructive criticism before throw on him.

He does not take the truth lightly because he is very much afraid to fight David Benavidez heheheh. This Canelo is not anymore on a similar status as Pacman. This present Canelo is very similar to Tank Davis, an boxer who is acting similar to an ICO scammer hehehehe.

And that's what most of us believed, that Canelo making a lot of excuses, but at the end of the day, he doesn't want to fight Benavidez or Morrell for that matter. And so this two monsters go up in weight at 175 lbs and fight each other.

I agree, most of the time, the truth hurt and that's what Turki is saying when he posted that tweet and so Canelo reacted negatively. We haven't heard who's Canelo next fight is, usually he fights in May, so by now we should be hearing so that he will have 8 full weeks of training. Maybe early next year, but I don't know who's next for him.

^^ We will see about Canelo, we all know that he has full of pride, he bolted out of Golden Boy and up till now him and Oscar are still not seeing eye to eye. He had a huge contract before and then went to become a free agent or at least just signing for per fight basis with Eddie Hearn and other manager.

So I wouldn't be surprised if he is not on boat with HE Turki's plan and proposal with regards to boxing right now. It's good money though, but Canelo might think that he is already settled and so he is ok if Dana and Turki will exclude him on the plans to take over boxing in the next couple of years.

Isn't he known as boxer who is more playing it safe for now, Canelo also has several businesses and he is full of wealth so I don't think it surprise if he refuses or disagrees with what HE Turkey has planned.
Indeed many people especially other boxers also criticized Canelo, but we all know who Canelo is and he is fighter who is considered gold so whatever Canelo decides will definitely not be changed by anyone.
On the other hand, in an interview session it also showed that Benavidez also doesn't really care about his desire to be able to fight Canelo, haha now maybe both of them will focus on their respective goals.

^^ For me, there seems to be a beef between Canelo and HE Turki Alalshikh, so I doubt that he will ever fight in Saudi for now,

https://x.com/Turki_alalshikh/status/1820700851528196362

And it all started when Turki criticized Canelo for not wanting to fight Benavidez, and so Canelo felt that he is being disrespected. Also he could really earn more if he will go under the banner, but for now, Canelo might be thinking that he is great than boxing itself as he is the cash cow.

So everything from what he had after a couple of months ago has taken shape already. So we might be looking for Beterbiev vs Bivol rematch. And obviously we will have the rematch as well between Usyk and Fury before the end of the year.

Haney's name is also mentioned, so who knows, after the Anpo vs Garcia fight, we might see them next year in Saudi too.

I am very much quite certain that the roadmap of master Turki and uncle Dana will be a celebration on the greatness of the sport of boxing! Canelo might be angry, however, this is also a business. He cannot ignore the money to be created and the challenge of a superfight between him and Bud Crawford. I am quite certain Canelo speculates that he can have the victory against Bud.

I seeing that the roadmap is still Canelo vs Bud Crawford. Everything leads to Canelo still, as he is the cash cow, although Turki doesn't like what he see during the Crawford against Madrimov so for now they fight might not happen. Maybe we will see Bud fight again next year at 154 lbs and Turki gauging if he can make the weight at 168 lbs and see if he has a chance against Canelo before setting this plan.

Quote from: bbc.reporter on December 03, 2024, 11:30:06 PM

Also, King Ry vs. Devin Haney is a certainty to be another fight that will be promoted and to occur in Saudi Arabia. What is the biggest holiday in Saudi Arabia?

Doesn't matter, Turki can create a holiday for the sake of boxing there so that many fans can watch. That's how influential this guy is, he already have February set for for the rematch between Bivol and Beterbiev, and then the Dubois defending his belt against Parker.

Turki mentioned any amount yet? In the past months Canelo was asking around $100M right? I think what he meant being disrespected is that the amount offered is not enough or maybe he changed his mind this time its more than 100M?

I'm not sure if Turki has mentioned any amount as far as Canelo goes, but it seems that Canelo is not interested for now, although I also heard that $100m. But Turki hasn't replied since his criticism of Canelo.

Quote from: bittraffic on December 05, 2024, 01:29:58 PM

Garcia vs Haney 2 is unlikely to happen. Ryan after receiving lots of criticism from the Haney camp will probably asks a lot more money also. His Anpo fight I think is just his tune up but he pis likely more interested to Tank vs him again.

Turki though might be interested, as he mentions Haney is one of those that he wanted to make a fight in Saudi. Garcia fighting Anpo could be just another money grab and tune up fight for him in preparation of his ban as it will be lifted in April if I'm not mistaken. So at least fighting in December, he might have shaken his ring rust and by the time around June he could be ready to make a comeback. Not necessarily against Haney, but a true boxing match.
