Cruiserweight and Heavyweight thread.

I got miller but I do think someone is going to sleep in this match

 

I hope you are right! I'll be rooting for Gassiev to KO the obese drug cheat.

 

Rahman’s comeback has been canceled

no reason given by the promoters

if it wasn’t due to him, wonder if he will take another fight soon as he was training already

 

Good for David Adeleye. Old Fish Eyes was just ruining his life by keeping him inactive.

Joe Parker has also left Queensberry recently.

Every major heavyweight is with Frank. Doesn't make much sense to leave him now of all times.

 

What good is it to stay, when old Fish Eyes just keeps him inactive? He'll be better off with Zuffa.

 

Yeah Parker can make fights with the likes of Ahio, McKean, Huni etc for his next few without the need for Queensbury.

 

Willy Kyakonye (14-0, 13 KOs) vs. Angelo Morejon (11-0, 8 KOs) 12 rounds for the WBF title on 10/12/2026 in Amsterdam

While I don't know any of these fighters well, I am happy that boxers of this level, who normally would be happy fighting bums in their own region, are fighting each other. I've personally seen an increase in these kinds of fights in the heavyweight division, though it's still far from its peak.

Guido Vianello will fight on the August 29th Itauma-Hrgovic event.

Will be interesting to see who he fights. I was expecting Adeleye but we saw what happened there. I imagine at this short notice it will be tough to find even a good journeyman to fight Vianello, but we'll see.

Honestly, someone like Hysa would be acceptable this late.

 

Good pick. Hysa.

Age 19 heavyweight Khalimjon Mamasoliev (9-0) defeated late notice opponent
German Skobenko by UD today in Naberezhnye Chelny, Russia.

Skobenko doesn't have a good record, but has fought some of the top Eurasian heavyweights and is difficult to stop, so the 19-year-old Mamasoliev was able to get 8 rounds of experience.
