Aloys Junior Blasts ‘princess’ Viddal Riley, Targets Former World Champion

4 days ago | boxingnewsonline.net | Oscar Pick

ALOYS Junior claims that Viddal Riley, his domestic rival, has swerved a six-figure payday for their potential British cruiserweight title showdown. The newly-crowned Commonwealth champion comes off a typically explosive performance, extending his ruthless surge in the professional ranks with a third-round finish over David Jamieson.
5 Best KOs For Deontay Wilder

4 days ago | boxingnewsonline.net | Oscar Pick

REGARDLESS of his technical flaws and defensive frailties, Deontay Wilder is, quite simply, one of the most awe-inspiring knockout artists in boxing history. His right hand – delivered more like a jackhammer than a punch – has gotten him out of jail so many times that even Alcatraz would struggle to keep him locked away.
Turki Alalshikh Plans Heavyweight Battle For Canelo Alvarez-Terence Crawford Undercard

4 days ago | boxingnewsonline.net | Oscar Pick

THE main card for Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford is seemingly taking shape, with Turki Alalshikh even teasing a possible heavyweight feature. In any case, Canelo, 63-2-2 (39 KOs), and Crawford, 41-0 (31 KOs), will square off for the undisputed super-middleweight crown on September 13, headlining a Ring Magazine card at the Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas.
Deontay Wilder To Paper Over Cracks With Superficial KO

4 days ago | boxingnewsonline.net | Oscar Pick

THIS version of Deontay Wilder, a once bone-shuddering puncher, is much like how Superman would look if he suddenly lost his powers. While Superman remains a heroic figure, he would be nothing without his extraordinary strength, speed or whatever else he uses to blitz past a selection of less impressive villains. A character like Batman, on the other hand, relies almost entirely on his natural abilities, representing a well-versed operator when it comes to strategically outmanoeuvring his foes.
Callum Simpson Presented With Option As European Title Defence Looms

FORMER European champion Kevin Lele Sadjo has emerged as the mandatory challenger for Callum Simpson, his successor, despite accepting an IBF elimination bout last month. The super-middleweight contender relinquished his EBU title earlier this year, allowing Simpson, 18-0 (13 KOs), to claim the vacant blue and gold belt with a tenth-round stoppage victory over Ivan Zucco.
Pierce O’Leary Ordered To Defend European Title

A deadline has been set for Pierce O’Leary, the newly-crowned European super-lightweight champion, to reach an agreement for his maiden title defence. The 25-year-old claimed his EBU strap after outpointing Liam Dillon, a naturally smaller fighter, at Portman Road – the home of Ipswich Town Football Club – earlier this month.
Turki Alalshikh Calls Kettle Black With Tom And Jerry Comments

5 days ago | boxingnewsonline.net | Oscar Pick

TURKI Alalshikh laid down the law of Riyadh Season – or rather Ring Magazine, or perhaps even his new TKO league – earlier this month, expressing his hatred towards Tom and Jerry. More specifically, the boxing paymaster declared that any two fighters wishing to deliver an impression of the cartoon, involving a cat and mouse, will not be welcome on his cards. First and foremost, it is important to highlight that Tom and Jerry, contrary to Alalshikh’s opinion, is far from a dreary show.
Dana White Teases Eye-watering Figure For Canelo-Crawford Performance Bonus

TURKI Alalshikh has seemingly agreed to reach even deeper into his pocket, doubling down on his desire to see no more Tom and Jerry-type fights. The boxing paymaster took to social media earlier this month, insisting that any fighters refusing to engage in an all-action spectacle would not be welcome on his shows. And since then, it would appear that Alalshikh has put the wheels in motion, wishing to incentivise the production of captivating displays with a hefty wad of cash.
Deontay Wilder Refuses To Close Door On Anthony Joshua Matchup

5 days ago | buff.ly | Oscar Pick

DEONTAY Wilder remains intrigued, albeit to a far lesser extent, when it comes to discussing a potential showdown with Anthony Joshua. The pair have been on a stop-start collision course, it seems, for the best part of seven years, only for their heavyweight dustup to remain several signatures away from materialising. Towards the end of 2023, however, it appeared that both former world champions came agonisingly close to entering their long-anticipated clash.
