I hope not, and it is just a rumor at this point. He's old and went out on a good note. I can't see him recapturing the championship. The fight I think would interest him the most would be a rematch versus Tyson Fury if Fury beats Wilder and doesn't have to do a trilogy. To me, it seems like that is the only loss he really regrets.
“ Bob Arum has stated that he intends for Teofimo Lopez to pursue the WBC lightweight title, with the ultimate goal being an undisputed fight with Vasyl Lomachenko next year. The promoter also said he'd love Lopez to fight Luke Campbell and Jose Pedraza in 2019.”
Gamboa signing to PBC according to Coppinger: "Former champion Yuriorkis Gamboa has signed a two-fight deal with PBC, according to industry sources. The Cuban is slated for a tune-up bout in April that could pay him $250K. Gamboa could be matched with Leo Santa Cruz or Gervonta Davis afterward where he could earn $750K". I don't like Gamboa being fed to either of those guys but at least he's getting paid. Hopefully its LSC rather than Tank, I don't think they can justify Davis fighting Gamboa at this stage in his career.
There were some notable updates to the WBO rankings last night. Golovkin is now the #1 challenger to Andrade's title. Makes it seem certain he will be the mandatory challenger, sign with DAZN, and fight Andrade. The #1 at Super Middleweight, an unknown fighter named Shefat Isufi fighting out of Germany, looks like he will be facing the newly installed #2 Billy Joe Saunders for the vacant title. Gilberto Ramirez was installed as the #1 challenger at Light Heavyweight over Yarde, so it seems like that may be next for Kovalev.
That's a good match up, Dinu boxed well against Miller, only for 2 rounds, but it will be interesting to see how he'll do against a less strong and a less dangerous Pulev
Pulev is less dangerous than Miller. Miller has 83% KOs, Pulev has 48%, Pulev has fought and beaten the better opposition, but not so much so that you can easily make a case for Pulev hitting as hard when he has that much lower a KO percentage.
Miller has beat no one but lost to no one therefore he can still be the greatest of all time while Pulev has beat Chisora and Hughie Fury but lost to an all-time great in Wlad so he's less dangerous
Roughly, maybe 15 great fighters in the world, roughly, maybe 100 good world level fighters in the world, substantially more good European level and good North American level fighters in the world, I said that, not you.
Extremely unlikely he is the greatest of all time, I do not believe Miller is the best in his division, as I explained to the Wilder critics, just because an under challenged fighter hasn't beaten a certain calibre of opponent, doesn't mean he can't. Just because Miller hasn't beaten anyone better than Duhaphas, doesn't mean he can't.
Pulev is less dangerous because he is a particularly light puncher comapred to a lot of heavyweights, Chisora, H Fury, better than Duhaphas, but not so much better that Pulev is likely to hit harder than Miller.
Miller is unproven as top 5, also unproven as not top 5, there is no particular reason to think it likely or unlikely he is better than Ortiz, Whyte, Povetkin, that is a matter of a 60-40 opinion, either way. Tabbing a fighter means saying an unproven fighter is good.
Now that would be a great match up, both veterans, especial Povetkin, both old, but both skilled and dangerous. I think Ortiz would win that, would be a very tough fight to call, but Ortiz is bigger, could be enough to split it, he might be slightly fresher, and we know from his last couple of fights and just the fact that he is active and still trying to get himself back in world title contention, that the Wilder loss wasn't the end of him, but Povetkin was stopped by Joshua, and there are still questions as to what he has left, physically, but also mentally, but that would be a great fight.
what about rumours of wlad's come back is it serious?
I hope not, and it is just a rumor at this point. He's old and went out on a good note. I can't see him recapturing the championship. The fight I think would interest him the most would be a rematch versus Tyson Fury if Fury beats Wilder and doesn't have to do a trilogy. To me, it seems like that is the only loss he really regrets.
Yarde now mandatory for Alvarez-Kovalev winner.
he has a fight how can he be mandatory?
yarde is favorite but I don't think it would be an easy fight for him
yarde is going to fight reeves instead of amar
I think whyte will face povetkin next because I don't think breazeale will agree to face whyte
smith vs ggg that would be a mismatch in my opinion
callum smith
in favour of callum smith
at least a knockout
If he doesn't move up I would like to see him against sanders
andrade vs sander who would you pick ?
sanders
what do you think of golaumirian ?
briedis vs glowacki june 15

maybe it's also to take away another scorecard like rochin's one at the first fight
pulev vs dinu
That one fell through apparently
That's a good match up, Dinu boxed well against Miller, only for 2 rounds, but it will be interesting to see how he'll do against a less strong and a less dangerous Pulev
less dangerous?!

I'm just joking man
he doesn't like your joke you can joking with me if you want
Misunderstanding, don't worry NF
Ok
pulev vs miller I pick Pulev
Fair enough, but I think Miller.
yoka vs duhaupas is probably not going to hapend because duhaupas doesn't want to boxe before december
Who do you guys think would win between Ortiz and Povetkin?
Now that would be a great match up, both veterans, especial Povetkin, both old, but both skilled and dangerous. I think Ortiz would win that, would be a very tough fight to call, but Ortiz is bigger, could be enough to split it, he might be slightly fresher, and we know from his last couple of fights and just the fact that he is active and still trying to get himself back in world title contention, that the Wilder loss wasn't the end of him, but Povetkin was stopped by Joshua, and there are still questions as to what he has left, physically, but also mentally, but that would be a great fight.
It definitely would be.
I favor Ortiz, but it's a very 50/50 fight.
povetkin would beat ortiz in my opinion
does someone has the results of the undercard fight?
Which one? Boxrec has some of them posted
