Is the Josh Taylor vs Terrence Crawford confirmed already or just another speculation? Because that will be huge fight next year. Crawford was once the king of 140 lbs until he move up to the welterweight division because that's where the money is. And now seeing that he is going down (I believed that he can still make the 140 lbs with ease), then it will be his second tenure at 140 lbs if ever he beats the current undisputed Josh Taylor.
I think it's just speculation, for now, there's no official announcement yet that these two will fight, otherwise there's already a thread we will see on this particular fight. That would be a great fight, it's the fight between two undefeated fighters but I'd still bet on Crawford no matter what.

In just a few hours we will leave the year 2021 and enter the year 2022 which will probably have so many challenges in life, as well as in the world of boxing, we will see there are some pretty dancing boxing matches in 2022, including:

1. Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano - Undisputed lightweight (women Boxing)

2. Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury - Undisputed Heavyweight

3. Conor Benn vs David Avanesyan - Welterweight

4. Sunny Edwards vs Julio Cesar Martinez - IBF and WBC flyweight unification

5. Lawrence Okolie vs Mairis Briedis - WBO and IBF cruiserweight unification

6. Josh Taylor vs Terence Crawford - WBO welterweight title

I don't think he Spence is avoiding Crawford. Maybe it make sense to get the belt from Ugas first and then go after Crawford for the unification bout in mid or late 2022 that will put a lot of money in the table. Maybe Crawford can fight Thurman too if "One Time", can get over Barrios this February. So there's a lot of options still open for Crawford while waiting for Spence.

Or the schedule doesn't match the two, Crawford just won against Porter and then Spence trying to make a comeback so it's better for him to fight Ugas first as Crawford might not be available the soonest.

So once Spence take care of Ugas then maybe they sit down and talk. Forget about Thurman, he is not that active so he needs to climb back in the rankings. And he is fighting an overblown 140 lbs ex-champion so it doesn't really count.

But Thurman winning against a weak opponent in Barrios will put his name again. He was once considered the best in welterweight, until he gets injured and then beaten by Manny.

And yet all roads goes to Crawford or Spence, but it was the first time I've heard that Crawford is not going to fight in 2022? Is it because of contractual issues? I thought he didn't re-sign his contract with Bob Arum after his last fight with Top Rank. So he should be clear to fight anyone in 2022.

Will see but I still consider Thurman a huge threat. He only loses once and we are counting him out already, I'm sure Thurman will win in his upcoming fight and Spence ( if he wins against Ugas) and Crawford should be ready as Thurman is not a leftover as some of you are thinking.

There are speculations we might not see Terence Crawford fight on 2022. We might only see him fight on 2023 versus the winner of Thurman-Barrios. It would be very disappointing not to witness the 2 kings of welterweight fight hehe.

This is an interview in Teddy Atlas’ podcast with Dana White. They talk about the problems in the sport of boxing and the organizations.

That will be very disappointing if Crawford will sit the rest of 2022 for unknown reason. But it will be very uncanny for him as he wanted to be the best welterweight and in order to get to that, he needs to fight Spence or Thurman or even Ugas to be considered the goat of 147 lbs.

He can even go back to 140 lbs and fight the unified champion in Josh Taylor and win in my opinion.

So there's a lot of options for him not to miss 2022 though.

For me Thurman is a great boxer, really for an athlete like him, I would not take into account the times he lost, he is one of those few boxers who only lose when they are careless and do not train enough, in the next match, I think that the statistics will not favor him, I think they have underestimated him a lot, and that is not good, because the surprises he can give are the least expected, I think I would go for him despite what others think.

I trained boxing at one time, and to be honest before a fight the thing that determines the most that he can win is if the training is hard enough.

Is Errol Spence avoiding a fight versus Terence Crawford? It appears that he is taking the money and the lower risk instead of fighting to be the real king of boxing’s welterweight division. This will be less than 10 rounds Spence knockout win, I reckon.

Also, I predict boxing politics will be used on Spence after Ugas. The WBA will order Spence to fight the mandatory challenger or remove his WBA championship. This will be Crawford being unlucky again.



Errol Spence Jr and Yordenis Ugas will meet in a three-belt welterweight title unification after all, with the fight now expected to come in the first quarter of 2022.

Spence holds the WBC and IBF titles, and was set to face Manny Pacquiao when Pacquiao held the WBA belt in the summer of 2021. That fight was scrapped when Spence came up with an eye issue that required surgery, and Yordenis Ugas stepped in, beating Pacquiao to take the belt.

The WBA originally denied Ugas’ request for a fight with Spence, as they had Eimantas Stanionis waiting as mandatory challenger. Now, with Stanionis willing to step aside, WBA President Gilberto J. Mendoza has confirmed that Spence-Ugas is approved.

Once Errol Spence would have a bout against Manny Pacquiao that fight has a venue already but on August 10, Spence was forced to pull out before of a retinal tear on his eye, then he was replaced by Yordenis Ugas that won against Manny Pacquiao, well he might be pulling out from the hard fights and just wants a lower risk fights this is mostly done by boxers that don't have lost record on their fight, mostly Floyd Mayweather is doing the same, but I am not 100% sure about this, I am just hearing rumors, and people are saying some stuff like that, but it is still their choice if they want to do something like that, and right now Errol Spence Jr. VS Yordenis Ugas fight approved for a unification of the WBA and may expect to fight on the year 2022,

And on the upcoming fights in the Year 2022 and on January 7, we will have Luis Reynaldo Nunez vs. Carlos Arrieta that will be on Caribe Royale Orlando, Orlando, Florida, USA, this will be a super featherweight match-up.

^^ Yes, Browne was doing good in the fight against Beterviev, but the power of Arthur was the obvious main different because once it touches Browne chin or body, it has a big effect on him. His knock down on round 7 was started by a good body shot and then he took a knee. On the second and last knock down he was set up by a body shot on both side and that upper cut to end the fight. But we love to see Alvarez vs Beterviev in the future.

I think it all has to do with the normal effect of the body, when you receive a blow to the chin or near the jaw the blow reaches you directly to the brain, and sometimes through the lateral canal of the face, and the effect is dizziness , but it is a non-normal dizziness, it is not a dizziness that comes and goes quickly, it is a dizziness that lasts for hours, that is why boxers always protect that part a lot, and when connecting a blow there then when attacking for the body near the kidneys, that ends up making a devastating effect in a fight.

Marcus Browne VS Artur Beterbiev

That gash from Beterbiev's forehead was really deep, and there is so much blood pouring out of it, but still, I think he is doing great even though his sight was hindered by his blood but well, both men have some cuts on their head but the fight had continued and kudos to both men in giving their all and showing their strong will to continue, and at around 9 Beterbiev KOéd Marcus Browne, that was a really bloody and intense fight for both guys.

Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley 2

Surely this is a devastating fight for Tyron Woodley, a 1 punch that knocks him out cold, and delivering it to him was a youtube, Jake Paul, you can say it is a huge upset, but I guess Jake Paul really has a solid strong punch that can knock out anybody, even Mayweather if he can graze at him and touch him before he got away. but in my opinion, this exhibition match didn't do much of an action, sorry but that is just what I have seen. but yeah Jake Paul really has the punching power.

Before the exhibition match of Paul Logan VS Tyron Woodley we will be having a match tomorrow and a match on December 17 this Friday,

Naoya Inoue VS Dipaen Aran

Dec. 14, 2021,
Tokyo’s Ryogoku Kokugikan

After that success and I could say close match with Nonito Donaire, and a dominating fight against Jason Maloney and Michael Dasmariñas defending his Super IBF Naoya Inoue will now face Dipaen Aran, pretty much I don't really know Dipaen Aran, so this could be an easy match for the monster, odds at stake is 1.01 for Naoya Inoue and 9.20 for Dipaen Aran, pretty sure this is a very high risk if you want to bet for Aran but for me, Naoya Inoue will surely win this,

Marcus Browne VS Artur Beterbiev

Dec. 17, 2021,
Bell Centre, Montreal, Quebec, Canada

I guess this fight will not go the distance it surely will be a possible knockout win both fighters are knockout punchers so whether who may land the finishing punch the other will sure say good night to his opponent, me Artur Beterbiev will be a more technical fighter here, and Markus Browne surely wants to brawl, that is why he lost to Jean Pascal, but if he would predict Beterbiev attack and could land a punch it is over that fast and that is how these two fighters strength is, odds at stake was 1.07 for Beterbiev Artur and 6.20, Markus Browne, I'd said I like how Artur Beterbiev will approach this fight I think he may apporch this fight with calmness and have a collected mind to make his decisions against Browne.

I have not watched Marcus Browne versus Artur Beterbiev, however, I am reading in social media that he fought very good. There are also some people who commented that Canelo challenge Beterbiev instead of the other light heavyweight fighter that Canelo’s team has planned to challenge who appear to be not very good.

Also, Jake Paul is also planning to fight in MMA hehehe. He said he will be training with Khabib and head coach of American Kickboxing Academy. This might end in a comedy or a tragedy hehe.



Love him or hate him, it is hard to deny the impact that the younger Paul brother has had on the world of combat sports, particularly in boxing. Although, by taking on and beating former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley and relentlessly attacking UFC President Dana White, he has also had his hands into the world of MMA, at least to some degree. This has led some to wonder if we might see Jake Paul switch from the ring to the cage at some point down the line.

Speaking at the press conference for his upcoming rematch with Woodley, Paul explained that he not only plans on competing in MMA, but he’ll be getting leadership from American Kickboxing Academy head coach Javier Mendez as well as former UFC lightweight champ turned budding trainer, Khabib Nurmagomedov.

“I’m gonna go get coached up by [Javier] Mendez, Team Khabib,” Paul said (h/t LowKickMMA). “That’s that. They’re down — 100 percent. I don’t see why if I can do boxing at this high of a level that I couldn’t do MMA at this high of a level.”

“I’ve gotta go 10-0, 12-0 in boxing first, and then I’ll hit that MMA fight.”

So now the 135 lbs is very exciting after the upset of Lopez and all champions wanted to a piece of Kambosos as they think he is a weaker champion. Ryan Garcia is also waiting in the wing and looking for a Davis fight as well. So for sure next year we will see this champions facing each other for unification.
It was confirmed that a medical condition has something to do with Lopez performance, boxers like Garcia and Haney thinks that Kambosos is a vulnerable champion because he only has Lopez as the big fish in his resume, so Kambosos is the target to get those undisputed titles, Haney will be a heavy favorite if he meets Kambosos even in Australia, Haney has fought boxers that are way better than Kambosos, so he wants this fight badly, and so is Garcia.

Shocking news came from Gervonta Davis who took off her WBA Super Lightweight belt to challenge the WBA, WBO, IBF Lightweight champion George Kambosos Jr, Gervonta Davis bold decision also made plans for a fight between Gervonta and Josh Taylor as the undisputed Super Lightweight champion now cancelled, reportedly gervonta now prefers to keep his current WBA belt.

So he will remain in the 135 lbs for now? Well, that is a good decision, Lopez is also targeting Josh Taylor at 140 lbs after his lost to Kambosos. And it also seems that Haney is willing to fight Kambosos in Australia.

So now the 135 lbs is very exciting after the upset of Lopez and all champions wanted to a piece of Kambosos as they think he is a weaker champion. Ryan Garcia is also waiting in the wing and looking for a Davis fight as well. So for sure next year we will see this champions facing each other for unification.
