    I thought of this one. But sided with Joshua/Klitschko because it's every bit as good and at a much higher level.

    February 2nd Simon Kean will face Solomon Haumono in Canada. A very very good step up for Kean!

    I have no doubts that he will. Probably a decision but Haumono is a lil old.

    Two guys to keep an eye out for that I really like and think could be very good or better in the ranks: Isaac Chamberlain - CW from UK and I think fighting Lawrence Okolie next who is very highly rated. 2. Andrew Tabiti - CW from the US. Loaded to the teeth with natural ability and athleticism.

    Depends what will be the game plan for the fight. I feel like there will be a slower start and then if his opponent gasses out , Kean will go for the KO!

    Chamberlain and Okolie won't get past domestic level.. they aren't good enough. Not seen Tabiti but lets be real US cruiserweights have all been used as punchbags for the Europeans in recent times .. so I'm not running to go watch him cause I'm guessing he'll be ****.

    Not sure about that. I favour Okolie in their fight and I favor Okolie to get past British level but doubt he can beat Lebedev, Hunter or Usyk.

    Freddie Roach will prepare Iago Kiladze for his fight against Kownacky. This fight won't be televised.

    Lucas Browne (25-0, 22 KO) confirmed in social media that talks are going on about his fight with Dillian Whyt (22-1, 16 KO).

    - Negotiations are underway. I spoke to my lawyer yesterday, who was in contact with Eddie [Hearn], but Eddie has not yet called back, probably because of the holidays. I think it will take another week. I am ready to fight. The contracts are ready, but we're still negotiating - said Big Daddy.

    Whyte and Brown would be fighting on March 24 in London, although it is possible that the duel will be placed on the card of the fight planned for the March-April gala of Joshua Parker.

    On January 20, a match with Iago Kiladze (26-1, 18 KO) at the gala in New York will return to Adam Kownacki (16-0, 13 KO). For the undefeated heavy from Lomza it will be the first performance since the sensational victory with Artur Szpilka.

    - I know that Kiladze boxed previously in junior heavyweight. A lot of moves, this should be an interesting fight. I think that after going to heavy, he changed his style a bit, so it should be interesting - says in an interview for boxingtalk.com "Babyface", who realizes that before any eventual chance he still has something to work on in the training room.

    - I still have gaps in defense. Kiladze does not hit particularly hard, but I let him hit some blows I would not want to accept from such big guys as Joshua or Wilder. When I feel that I have progressed in this topic, I will be ready for the champions - declared Kownacki.

    The Pole, when asked about his plans for the next twelve months, replies: - I want to win every fight as effectively as possible. I think that this year it got loud about me, next year will be mine
