Posted on 01/24/2024 By: Sean Crose At 35 years of age, John Ryder has fought and lost to arguably the most popular fighter in the world.

By John Ryder FOR me, Saturday night in Phoenix, the equation is a simple one: The winner stays on. I know I’ve only got a couple more fights left but that means my mindset is clearer than ever. It’s win or bust – I have to win to keep going. I’m not quite ready to
Peter Dobson has always wanted a big-time opportunity, but after waiting around for years, the old veteran began losing hope. But, just when ring rust was forming and inactivity was becoming the norm, Dobson (16-0, 9 KOs) was thrown a lifeline. On February 3rd, the 33-year-old will officially return to the ring when he takes
By Steve Bunce IN JANUARY 1998 Herbie Hide was chasing Roy Jones for a fight and a date in June was mentioned. Hide had regained the WBO heavyweight title in the summer of 1997 when he knocked out what was left of Tony Tucker in Norwich. That may be harsh, sorry. In the first week
Posted on 01/23/2024 By: Sean Crose Sadam Ali. Liam Smith. Gary O’Sullivan. Gabriel Rosado. Sergiy Derevyanchenko. These are not the biggest names in boxing. They are, however, the names of notable boxers who have plied their trade over the last ten years at least. And they’ve all been defeated by Jaime Munguia. Indeed, the now
What would the world of boxing be without all the pettiness that comes along with it, right? 140 lb titleholder Rolando Romero recently made headlines by blasting Golden Boy promoter Oscar De La Hoya and his prized fighter Ryan Garcia (who are often at odds with one another). Then Romero would soon take things a
In an action-packed, nip-and-tuck affair that saw both men floored (Carlos Canizales from an overhand right to the top of the head in round two, Kenshiro Teraji from a right cross to the jaw late in round three), Teraji retained his WBA/WBC light flyweight titles in Osaka by majority decision. Canizales brought the pressure and
A solid UK domestic tussle is on the horizon, as Florian Marku and Chris Kongo have signed on for a grudge match “expected to take place in March.” The pair’s longstanding animosity boiled over last August when Kongo (14-2, 7 KO) crashed an interview with Marku (13-0-1, 8 KO) ahead of “The Albanian King’s” 54-second

It will be the second fight for Benn ever since it was revealed last year that he
NEXT month Andre Ward turns 40 and in doing so moves one year closer to achieving his goal. That goal, his latest and no different than any other retired fighter’s, is essentially this: for age to become an obstacle so great that the idea of returning to the ring is no longer even an option.
THE RESULT: In a fight full of action and vicious exchanges, it was in the end the ability of Kenshiro Teraji to fight in more than one style which saw him secure a majority decision against Carlos Canizales today (January 23) in Osaka, Japan. Both men had periods of success, and indeed both scored knockdowns,
Tenshin Nasukawa picked up his first stoppage as a pro boxer. It came in anticlimactic fashion, as a right ankle injury left Luis Robles unable to continue after three rounds.
