The weigh-in for Ennis vs Avanesyan:

We will see this fight in the next couple of hours, both make the weight, Jaron Ennis is set to defend his IBF welterweight title.

David Avanesyan though is a 14:1 underdog here so expect Ennis to win and then still go after Spence or Crawford as this is still two of the biggest fight for him at 147 lbs. That is, if both of them are going to stay at that weight class, but it looks like they are not as Crawford will have a fight against Madrinov at 154 lbs.

Despite some ring rust, Ennis still dominated Avanesyan and forced his corner to stop the fight from the amount of punishment he was taking. Even if Boots had fought the original opponent, Cody Crowley, I think the outcome would have been the same. His matchmakers will have a hard time fighting an opponent who can be competitive against him. The elite names like Crawford don’t have any interest in facing him. We will have to settle for one-sided mismatches until he is given the opportunity to prove himself against the best.

And I don't think that though that he can beat either Spence or Crawford on this version of him against Avanesyan. He chooses to stay in the pocket, but if that is either Spence or Crawford, he will be hit hard and could be punished.

Obviously, he will change his style, but I don't think that he belongs to the elite though, he really need to work very hard and give us impressive wins. However, both of them might be moving to super Welterweight so I don't see him fighting either Spence or Crawford in the future.

I just go on my social media and there are speculations that the Saudis are very interested on putting up a Ennis vs Spence fight. If that will be the case then there's no more excuse for Spence not to give Ennis a crack at him as the money will be huge specially if this is what the Saudi's want. And it will still be good for both, they will cement their legacies not unless Spence is going to chase for Crawford at 154 lbs. For the win of Ennis, I think Crawford has laid down the blue print already when they fought as he target the body of David first to soften him up before taking his head off and this is what Ennis this in this fight.

I don't think that Shakur though could win against Loma even if Loma is old. Shakur might be too technical, but Loma has fought a lot of fighters in his resume that tends to be tactical, but they say No Mas to him.

It will be Loma vs Tank first and so Shakur will have to wait if the winner is willing to face him because his style is boring.

Shakur is the very definition of being all bark and no bite. He may act tough on social media but when he is inside of the ring, he couldn’t even hurt a fly. He is not entitled to a Loma fight. Now that he is a free agent, Top Rank has no obligation to match him against one of their most marketable and exciting fighters. From a business perspective it is better for Loma to fight Tank.

Promoters will only pursue a match if they are seeing good money out of it. And since he is a free agent now, hard for him to push thru the fight he wants. Unless, boxing fans are calling for it and they see a huge demand for the fight. Otherwise, he needs a very good convincing power from the boxing world to get a very good fight.

nowadays fights are no longer limited to just inside the ring, nowadays fighters make an effort to make scandals that will get a lot of attention and fans and fighters are starting to carry out campaigns to have more big fights. in each fight, the fighters create more confusion before the fights to generate more attention, this has become a form of fighting outside the ring.

Fighters who cannot have these ideas that they have to create uncomfortable situations before a fight to generate a lot of people's attention, risk having a fight and being forgotten. Unfortunately, many fighters have exaggerated this type of marketing: " creating problems to attract attention ", just look at the case of Ryan Garcia, who is constantly in the media for unnecessary reasons, and is always involved in controversies. I see Shakur Stevenson as moderate when it comes to not getting involved in too many controversies, unfortunately this can also make him not get much attention.

News update.

It appears that negotiations for Loma vs. the scammer Tank Davis has begin! This is confirmed by Bob Arum. This is also quite shocking because it appears uncle Bob is changing his tactics on creating fights. Did he not like creating superfights before? I might be mistaken, however, I reckon he will only do this rarely. Has he learned something after Bud Crawford left Top Rank?

In any case, I wish that Loma will not agree to Tanks's rehydration clauses.

Top Rank promoter Bob Arum states the Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis vs. Vasily Lomachenko lightweight unification fight is in the works for November in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand or T-Mobile Arena.

Arum says Carl Moretti of Top Rank is negotiating with Luis Decubas to make the Tank vs. Lomachenko fight happen in November in Las Vegas, provided they can hammer out a deal.

It's probably what they could have verbally agreed upon, Tank winning his fight against Martin and then Loma getting a win and a belt against Kambosos. And probably this is a way for Bob to rub it in to Shakur as Stevenson openly said that he wont' sign back with Top Rank.

So Shakur will have to wait first a little longer before he can either face the winner.

I don't think that rehydration clause could be an issue, Loma is not that big for 135 lbs, and this is his comfortable weight. Maybe the size of the ring though or even the size of their gloves or what gloves they are going to used as Tank is a knockout artist.

But yes, Arum already confirmed the news right away after Tank won against Frank. So let's wait if this is going to be official in the next coming weeks or months.

So at least Manny can at least breath a sigh of relived as he won't pay $5 million to PSM because of the breach of contract. But just imagine though if the fight happens back then, Connor could have another biggest paycheck and it could break his record with Floyd in terms of PPV numbers.

That's good for him. This case was long over due and I just remembered it by now after reading the update.

It's a lot of money if it will go to punishment. The MVP here is Pacquiao's legal counsel and was able to convince the judge to reverse the verdict and vacate the first one.

Pacquiao did really saved more money than paying the penalty.

Just an update on the Manny Pacquiao case against PSM,

Quote

Reports mushroomed back then that PSM was setting up a Pacquiao-McGregor mega match, but this did not come into fruition when McGregor was knocked out by Dustin Poirier in January 2021.

Pacquiao proceeded to fight Cuban Yordenis Ugas in August 2021 for another promotional banner. This drew the ire of PSM and a lawsuit was filed against Pacquiao.

PSM accused Pacquiao of not disclosing other agreements he had signed before he inked a deal with PSM.

In May 2023, a California jury (Superior Court of Orange County, California) ruled in favor of PSM.

Pacquiao's team sought declaratory relief from the judgment. In a stunning reversal, California Superior Court Judge Walter P. Schwarm vacated the earlier verdict against Pacquiao.

The previous verdict was vacated because it was established that PSM was not properly licensed in California to act as manager as required by state law.

The California Business and Professions Code requires a license for a person to participate in any contest or service as agent, manager, trainer or second.

https://www.msn.com/en-ph/sports/other/big-win-for-pacquiao/ar-BB1pOFG8?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=NMTS&cvid=159fe1bca752478d8e54f61373ad5e4b&ei=32

So at least Manny can at least breath a sigh of relived as he won't pay $5 million to PSM because of the breach of contract. But just imagine though if the fight happens back then, Connor could have another biggest paycheck and it could break his record with Floyd in terms of PPV numbers.

Ryan Garcia apparently broke inside the house he lived in with his ex is to see his kids and went on to destroy the place

https://x.com/oocmma/status/1810884944496824378

And there is also this this news that he is texting a underage girl, not really sure what's going on with Ryan's life, but obviously, it has took a toll on him with regards to his suspension I guess. I thought that he can handle it well, but with so much on what's going on in his life with the divorce and other personal stuff, his like is going on a downward spiral.

It seems like his mental problems got worse after what happened in Haney's fight. He was suspended, and I don't know when he'll be able to come back. So most of his time is probably spent going out with his friends and doing some stupid things, including this one. Ryan wasted his talent if he ends up going to jail. What's the use of his money if his freedom will be taken from him?

It's not good news when it already involves abuse of a woman, and now this new rumor that he is texting a minor? For real?

It is not good news definitely, Ryan is old enough to know what he is doing is wrong and no one is above the law here. It's really ironic as well that he praises God when he will be interviewed before and after the fight but then his actions are totally different on what he says.

So by now we really know that he is mentally unstable, it could be because of the success that he had or this is really in-born that he has personality disorder that was not check and as he grew, this illness takes it's shape and form in Ryan. And I do agree that it will really ruin everything for him unless he straighten things up and just be sober because I think his under the influence of something when he did this disgusting actions.

Indeed, he needs that push to gain the attention else, since that he doesn't have any good back up then there's nothing for him, seeing him fighting brings boredom for those live viewers, unless there's a big call from another good opponents that he will accept and the fans will react greatly, anyway he can use the influence of social media to create noise for his name, let see if how him and his camp will find that good money making fight that he'll earn a lot.

What do you expect? He went overboard with his posts and with the way the social media is right now, they are going to cancel you regardless of who you are. And I think Ryan deserves this, he has been out of control in the past couple of months after he was found guilty of using PEDS and now suspended. But it seems that he doesn't care and when on a tirade in his account, but no one is letting him with this one.

And so WBC has no other options but to issued their statement about Ryan and so there's nothing we can do about it. Oscar though trying to salvage everything by saying that Ryan is going into rehab but it's too late.

Ryan should’ve gotten treatment for his mental problems long ago but there is always people willing to exploit him for their own benefit. Golden Boy, Matchroom, and DAZN allowed the Devin Haney fight to go through because they didn’t want to sacrifice the PPV money. Social media influencers like Andrew Tate use him to farm engagement. He went on a racist tirade and is still somehow allowed to tweet crazy things.

Maybe if they hadn’t been enabling his destructive behavior he wouldn’t need rehab, which it doesn’t appear that he will even be attending after all. Not only is all this affecting himself but he is also dragging his brother down with him, Sean Garcia, who came in over weight and then got knocked out on Saturday.

And then there are more drama, as it was reported:

The abuse of social media has finally taken its toll again and Ryan Garcia has officially been dismissed from his WBC membership after making controversial and racist statements in his posts on Instagram, I think what Garcia did should be a lesson for many young boxers who want to start their careers in boxing, for don't do ridiculous things and actually destroy their career as a boxer, In fact, Garcia is a boxer who is quite talented and would probably have a brilliant career if he could avoid things that continue to trigger controversy today, as a boxer who is still very young, of course the way is open for him to get a better career in the future, especially since all this time, Ryan Garcia has been under the promoter of boxing legend Oscar De La Hoya, so it is very likely that Ryan Garcia will be able to get a better opportunity to become a great boxer with help from Oscar de la Hoya, but after everything Ryan Garcia is doing now and after his expulsion from the WBC so we can say that his career is over.

WBC is one of the places that has succeeded in raising Ryan Garcia and now because of his stupidity in doing several uncontrollable things, he has to leave the WBC, everything has been explained by WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman and this expulsion is also stated as form of rejection of acts of racism and discrimination.
We all know that Ryan Garcia is one of the best young boxers, he has had really very satisfying career and has been one of the boxers who was able to unite the 3 title, but unfortunately his stupidity has repeated itself.
I think in the future we will never be able to see how Ryan Garcia fights in this championship again and one thing that is certain is the rematch he wants against Gervonta Davis was guaranteed to fail because Gervonta Davis reject it.
Apart from that there is also serious attitude from the promoter Oscar De La Hoya and the figure of Muhammad grandson Ali is Nico Ali Walsh, but everything has happened and there will be no solution that can really help Ryan Garcia to come back again, I sure this will be complicated problem to solve.

I already posted it here.

Regarding the fight between Conceicao and Foster, yeah, I think it was controversial as I give that to Foster, and so it's hard for him to take that fight and then seeing his belt gone after the judges took it away from him and rewarded Conceicao.

Not sure if there were rematch clause, but it looks none, but hopefully Conceicao will gave one and see that his win is not a fluke. It could be the fight was boring though, as Conceicao is the aggressor here, although not hitting Foster but it seems that's what the judges see in this fight.

Yes, I think it's not only ESPN that score and say that Foster has won, but there could be a lot watching live and scoring the fight itself. And he has all the right to demand a rematch because it's really controversial and you have to look at the background of those judges.

Of course Top Rank's Bob Arum is all fuming that his boy winning has been criticized and say that punch stat says nothing. But hopefully, he will allow Robson to rematch Foster to settle this. But with the way Bob talks, it seems he is not keen on that second fight with Foster though.

Let alone without a promoter. Most boxing fights happen because of the promoters involved, not because of the boxer's will. At the end of the day, the promoters are the ones pushing thru the fights.

I don't think that Shakur though could win against Loma even if Loma is old. Shakur might be too technical, but Loma has fought a lot of fighters in his resume that tends to be tactical, but they say No Mas to him.

It will be Loma vs Tank first and so Shakur will have to wait if the winner is willing to face him because his style is boring.

Shakur is the very definition of being all bark and no bite. He may act tough on social media but when he is inside of the ring, he couldn’t even hurt a fly. He is not entitled to a Loma fight. Now that he is a free agent, Top Rank has no obligation to match him against one of their most marketable and exciting fighters. From a business perspective it is better for Loma to fight Tank.

The abuse of social media has finally taken its toll again and Ryan Garcia has officially been dismissed from his WBC membership after making controversial and racist statements in his posts on Instagram, I think what Garcia did should be a lesson for many young boxers who want to start their careers in boxing, for don't do ridiculous things and actually destroy their career as a boxer, In fact, Garcia is a boxer who is quite talented and would probably have a brilliant career if he could avoid things that continue to trigger controversy today, as a boxer who is still very young, of course the way is open for him to get a better career in the future, especially since all this time, Ryan Garcia has been under the promoter of boxing legend Oscar De La Hoya, so it is very likely that Ryan Garcia will be able to get a better opportunity to become a great boxer with help from Oscar de la Hoya, but after everything Ryan Garcia is doing now and after his expulsion from the WBC so we can say that his career is over.

I already posted it here.

Regarding the fight between Conceicao and Foster, yeah, I think it was controversial as I give that to Foster, and so it's hard for him to take that fight and then seeing his belt gone after the judges took it away from him and rewarded Conceicao.

Not sure if there were rematch clause, but it looks none, but hopefully Conceicao will gave one and see that his win is not a fluke. It could be the fight was boring though, as Conceicao is the aggressor here, although not hitting Foster but it seems that's what the judges see in this fight.
