“We had a meeting today. We have an agreement that the fight will be held in Russia in September,” said Arum to IFL TV about the Kovalev vs. Yarde fight. “We had a meeting in my office with Kovalev’s promoter and his manager Egis Klimis and with Frank Warren. We’re going to sign a new contract.”
Fury could be fighting a real contender like Whyte for much better money. Schwartz shouldn't be selling his "0" so cheaply.
The "We Be Crooks" are sinking low to not sanction an excellent matchup like this between two top contenders. They mention "integrity" yet have none.
Simon Kean beat Dillon Carman via TKO 3. Ronald Jonshon beat Saul Farah via wide UD. Alex Dicinson lost to Kamil Sokolowski via UD. Guido Vianello beat Keenan Hickmon via TKO 2. Peter Kadiru beat Juan Torres via UD,
Kean is work in progress. He can go as far as contender due to is boxing skills, handspeed and power. But as far as Peter goes, I don't think he can go far because lack of power and agression in the ring.
Darmani Rock defeated Raymond Ochieng via 2nd round KO. Concerning however that he weighed 289 pounds and is getting heavier every fight.
Good victory for Briedis. He will likely win this WBSS but I don't have no idea where he goes from there. I don't think he will move up to heavyweight. I think he will try to unify, I think he will fight Golumirian in couple fights or less.
It was a good fight to watch. The Argentinian displayed a great chin. But Romanov can be ruled out as a future world champ after this, he's just too small in size and weight for heavyweight, he needs to move down to Cruiserweight if he can.
Dychko's career continues to sputter long. According to boxrec, he is signed to fight the Raphael Zumbano. Better than nothing I guess.
