‘Very disappointing’: Caroline Dubois hasn’t managed to land unification fight

Edgar Berlanga nearly suffered his own setback on his Zuffa debut, getting dropped in the second against Steven Butler before rallying back to stop him in seven rounds.

Yes, Tim Tszyu is past his best, but he can win a world title at 160
Tim Tszyu is obviously coming off of a big win last night over Errol Spence Jr, and he says he’ll be staying at 160 lbs going forward, rather than trying to return to 154. Tszyu (28-3, 18 KO) has been dabbling with this idea for a year now, after his second loss to Sebastian Fundora. […]
‘He can fight like that and beat Tyson Fury’: Eddie Hearn on Anthony Joshua’s Prenga scare
Anthony Joshua winning by second round knockout made plenty of predictions come true on Saturday, but how he got there was another story. Joshua (30-4, 27 KO) had a big scare in the first round, when he was knocked down twice by Prenga (20-2, 20 KO) and just looked like he was on bad legs, […]

Tim Tszyu revitalized the commercial side of his career with a win tonight in Sydney, Australia, against the returning Errol Spence Jr. Spence, a former welterweight titleholder and regular in various pound-for-pound top 10s for several years, just didn’t have it anymore, following a three-year layoff and a two-division jump in weight. The 36-year-old Spence […]

Stephen Fulton failed to make weight for his planned fight with Liam Wilson on the Spence vs Tszyu show, so now that show has lost a second featured undercard bout.

There were no surprises in Tyson Fury’s tune-up bout today in Thailand, as he stopped 46-year-old Mariusz Wach after seven rounds, taking what should be the final step toward the autumn mega-fight with Anthony Joshua.

Errol Spence Jr will return to boxing for his first fight in three years this weekend, when he travels to Australia to face Tim Tszyu in a 12-round, middleweight main event. Spence has been out of action so long that the guy he faced last has since won world titles in two other weight classes […]
