  • Aftermath of the Klitschko – Thompson Title Fight

    Another heavyweight title fight, another comfortable win for Wladimir Klitschko. This time? 40-Year old Tony Thompson, who hardly produced anything of note on his second tumble in the ring with the younger Klitschko brother, winning with a sixth round knockout, retaining the WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO & Ring Heavyweight title belts.

  • Aftermath of the Pacquiao – Bradley Fight

    Manny Pacquiao landed more punches and more power shots than Timothy Bradley. According to anyone who was watching and scoring the fight, Pacquiao had won something between 8 to 10 of the rounds. It was that one sided. But the judges saw a completely different fight, and somehow, someway, decided to give the sport another terrible decision – Bradley wins, Split Decision.

  • Pacquiao vs Bradley – In the Shadow of Mayweather

    Manny Pacquiao facing Timothy Bradley is a big fight, but everyone knows this is a concession for Pacquiao and for fight fans in general. What he really would have wanted, according to him, is facing Floyd Mayweather for the biggest bout of all time in terms of cash.

  • Miguel Cotto Gives Floyd Mayweather His Toughest Fight Yet

    Floyd Mayweather won by an impressive unanimous decision if you believe the scorecards, giving him 117-111, 117-111 and 118-110. It was probably a bit closer than what they showed. Miguel Cotto didn’t knock Mayweather down, but he hit him and made it harder for the undefeated champion than anyone ever did before.

  • Amir Khan Still Hoping to get Mayweather in 2012

    There’s no doubt Amir Khan’s main and immediate goal right now is getting a rematch against Lamont Peterson, the man who beat him to take away the WBA and IBF Light Welterweight titles, but he’s still hoping that his earlier plans, of facing Floyd Mayweather by the end of 2012, haven’t been hampered by recent events.

  • Amir Khan – From Mystery Man to Peterson Rematch

    Amir Khan will get a rematch against Lamont Peterson for the Light Welterweight title, according to the WBA. The IBF will also look into what happened during the fight, from the referee decisions to the Mystery man that shouldn’t have been there and will probably do the same as the WBA.

  • Aftermath of the Ward – Froch Title Fight

    Andre Ward may not have the power the masses and PPV crowds want from a pound-4-pound king, but he’s got everything else. The American became a unified Super Middleweight champion after a unanimous decision win over Carl Froch, remaining undefeated and winning Showtime’s Super Six Boxing Classic tournament. Lucian Bute is next?

  • Despite WBC, Hopkins – Dawson Rematch Seems Unlikely

    The WBC has ordered a rematch between Bernard Hopkins and Chad Dawson for the Light Heavyweight title belt. After the farce of a fight in the first meeting back in October, it’s unlikely the fight will actually be worked out for financial reasons.

  • Aftermath of the Khan – Peterson Title Fight

    Amir Khan was the better fighter in the ring against Lamont Peterson, but it wasn’t enough. Peterson won by a more than controversial split decision, becoming the WBA and IBF Light Welterweight champion and seemingly agreeing to a rematch between the two.
