Hello everyone. First off happy new year to everybody and hope you are doing fine. Boxing starts off with a solid schedule with a couple of potential early fight of the year candidates. Which of these fights listed above are you most excited for?
Absolutely. It would be tragic if we didn't get to see it now after one of them fell at the final hurdle
I love the Mustang but General Okunka is hardly some super fight for him. Definition of stay-busy, don't expect it to be very competitive. Beterbiev vs. Smith has FOTY potential. Mung vs. Gorilla could easily degenerate into a sloppy mess but on paper maybe the best of the rest.
Obviously, the biggest, most important fight is Beterbiev - Smith. However, after watching Smith find no answers for Canelo Alvarez' pressure I cannot see him coming up with anything to stop Beterbiev's non-stop, come forward approach. Eventually, Smith crumbles. I chose the Ryder / Munguia bout. That is the fight I am most excited to watch. I expect it to be an action packed, barnburner which has no chance of going the distance. The both eschew solid defense and both take a good punch. This should be a lot of fun.
The response is overwhelmingly Beterbiev-Smith. It makes me to sick to think that AB hasn't had a mega payday yet.
Happy New Year everyone. This month is definitely stacked with some nice fights. I’m excited to see Beterbiev and Ortiz back in action and providing a nice stoppage win to start the month. Munguia vs Ryder and Teraji vs Canizales are fights that I think are most likely going to be fun, competitive fights. Beterbiev vs Smith is the fight I’ll be quick to tune in this month mainly because I want to see Beterbiev make a statement so we can finally have the fight with Bivol happen.
