David Nyika won Commonwealth gold again, for me it was 3-0 easy He’s like 6’4” and slick AF at CW. Hope he makes some noise in the pros
The final duel of the World Boxing Super Series tournament in the junior heavyweight category between Murat Gasijew (26-0, 19 KO) and Oleksandr Usyk (14-0, 11 KO) can take place on July 22 in Russia. Earlier, it was announced that Gasijew will come to Usyk on May 11 in Saudi Arabia, but yesterday the organizers of the prestigious competition announced that it will be postponed for the summer.
Speaking of Commonwealth Games ... anyone know much about Patrick Mailata (age 23, bronze, 6'5, 120 kg) ?
Not a lot. He did have a close amateur fight (loss) with Joseph Parker in 2012 when only 17. The Frazer semifinal was fairly close too. From what I see he's got plenty to learn but has the talent to be a decent HW.
Wow, that's almost 6 months away ... this is a saga that just keeps going on and on spanning years. The Chagaev fight was mid 2014.
Grisunins was clearly out boxed by Kennedy. He needed to rush Kennedy but at least he got some experience from this fight. I think he can easily move down to different weight division and gain some success there. He was pretty competitive as the super midleweight back in his amateur days, he ko'd Murata....
