The eagerly awaited return of Lineal World Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury recorded by far the highest linear subscription TV viewing figure for boxing this year, peaking at 814,000 live viewers on BT Sport last Saturday night.
Former Bellator fighter Michael Page just knocked out Michal Ciach in the second round of his second pro fight at York Hall. He is 2(2)-0-0 now after stopping Jonathan Castano back in October 2017 @ LHW
Well I think Hrgovic is a brilliant HW prospect. So you must think Evgeny Romanov will be a future world champion then?
Well, I respect your opinion but I can't see him beating Joshua or Wilder, too stiff. Romanov is fast, deadly power, great hand speed and moves like 20 year old. So, why not? Of course he can.
Hope you're right cause I like watching him, but I see his level as more of a top 15 fringe world level guy.
I Know you a big hrgovic fan.. but your Allowing your love for him Blind you he's not as good as you think sorry. not impressed me so far as a pro anyway.
Evgeny Romanov's accomplishments in the amateur ranks: 2003. Gold European champion among juniors in the heavyweight (up to 91 kg). 2004. Gold World champion among juniors in the heavyweight (up to 91 kg). 2004. Bronze medal winner in World University Boxing Championship 2005. Silver medalist of the Russian heavyweight championship (up to 91 kg). 2006. Silver medalist of the Russian heavyweight championship (up to 91 kg). 2008. Silver medalist of the Russian heavyweight championship (up to 91 kg). 2009. Gold Champion of Russia in the heavyweight (up to 91 kg). Has wins over Wilder, Glazkov, Afonin, Bradley Pitt, Robert Alfonso, Maxim Babanin, Magomed Omarov and Rakhim Chakhiyev.
Romanov can be knocked out but it's tough ask. In his later amateur career he was very rarely stopped, once or twice in couple of years. I think he adjusted his guard in due time.
"This is all wrong. I'm ready to ride through to Antarctica. I'm waiting for the information [regarding the date and location], it will be soon," Usyk told Match. "I have two belts, and Murat have two belts. I need this fight. We are waiting for a letter from the organizers of the WBSS, regarding where I will fight and I am willing to go anywhere in the world. I specifically want Murat Gassiev. If one of us will not be involved in the final - then the tournament loses all meaning. I want this fight, and I'm positive that Murat does too. And a lot of boxing fans are waiting for this fight." P.S. Everywhere except Russia. It's not about judging because they have good judging policy in Russia in the recent times.
Sergei sure that to enter the top rivals Fury should be restored to its previous level. "It was a show fight," said Sergei. - Seferi just left to serve the number. About these people say: "Do not hurt me, I will not touch you." Under this motto, Fury returned. Tyson used his physical data - growth, dimensions, weight, arm lengths. Sefery did not show anything. Kuzmin believes that after a long pause in two and a half years, Tyson has not yet gained the previous condition. - Of course, this is not the version of Tyson Fury, who boxed with Wladimir Klitschko. But if he works on himself and will improve, do not dissolve himself in weight and regime, then I think that we will see his updated version. While Tyson Fury is an ordinary bag. Boxing, which now shows Fury - uninteresting boxing. If a normal opponent came out against him, he would create serious problems for Tyson. "Everything can change when he starts to think." Then he will have big fights with people like us, going to the titles. It would be interesting to fight him, but at what level is he now ... Yes, he was at the peak when he defeated Vladimir. But now is another time, now champions Anthony Joshua and Deontey Wilder, and we are equals to them and go to battle with them. And Fury let him first restore the old name, after which we will begin to solve with him questions. Is your fight with Fury possible in the foreseeable future? What do you oppose to him? - Yes, our fight with Fury is quite possible, because we have the same goals. My - to become the world champion, I go to her. And he returned to the ring and seeks to regain his belts. If our paths cross, we will give a very classy fight, to which I will go with one intention - to win.
That's okay. My opinion on Wlad was the same when he went pro. Who is being moved faster and looking better among the prospects?
Wouldn't be surprised if he gets Nate Campbell'd by an area level fighter or journeyman. He's so cocky and open. Even in MMA he's feasted on nothing but tomato cans since bursting on to the scene 5-6 years ago. Complete joke of a fighter.
