Jayde Mitchell now WBC #10 super middleweight.

 

Horn, a billy goat legend! He can butt the best, hold, elbow, wrestle, low blows. It's the kangaroo sparring that makes him unbeatable........................only Crawford will knock him out cold...................back to the kangaroos!

 

Billy Dib and Tevin Farmer to fight vacant junior lightweight interim belt.

Both camps were formally notified to negotiate. If they do not strike a deal by May 3, a purse bid will be ordered.

 

The stakes just higher for a all Aussie SMW showdown with Bilal Akkaway.

Tim the Toolman back in action on 24 May against an unbeaten Thai.

I don't know anything about Jayde Mitchell but I would expect Bilal Akkawy to take a quantum leap forward coming off his last fight. Will be very tough to beat.

 

Mitchell is a busy fighter. High workrate. Good stamina. Mitchell-Akkawy would make for an interesting contrast in styles and hopefully a good contest.

 

Aus MW champ David Toussaint has a new opponent for the nation capital May 4 bout NZ no 1 MW Gunnar Jackson. Gunnar has fought Anthony Mundine and went the distance with current WBA champ Ryota Murota .Gunnar a crafty world travelled fighter will be a tough test for David.
Toussaint is looking for a world top 15 ranking and will spring board up the world rankings with a win
over Jackson.

 

Hmm, not one I've seen nor even heard of. The only name on his record I recognize is Stevie Ongen Ferdinandus, whom like 5-6 years ago you could deem a goodish regional scalp. Took him the distance. Most of this guy's stoppages were opponents in their debut or coming in with tons of losses. Guessing he won't have much genuine pop to keep Tim's respect.

 

Still no May 5th opponent announced for GKJ.

 

Only 2 of the 8 bouts are matched so far according to Boxrec. Not a great look less than 2 weeks out.

 

George Kambosos talks US debut and signing with Di Bella.

Well, certain other May 5th cards only just got finalized within the past week, so fair play.
