Joe Joyce has had a bruising year, two losses to Zhilei Zhang knocking him down the heavyweight rankings and relieving him of his prized mandatory position. At 38-years-old, the Brit says he’s going to have one more crack at reaching the top, but he now not only has to deal with the men of his […]
Devin Haney is the talk of boxing following a superb win over Regis Prograis to become a two-weight world champion at just 25-years-old. ‘The Dream’ dominated Prograis, knocking him down on the way to as wide a unanimous decision as they come.

Carl Froch has high praise for one fighter coming off a statement victory. Now a Hall of Famer and pundit, Froch held multiple super-middleweight world titles during his fighting career.

Tony Bellew has been voted runner up for this year’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. In reality TV, second best is to be celebrated. In the boxing ring, it can be a bitter pill to swallow. In a 34-bout career, ‘Bomber’ Bellew had just three losses. The first came by close majority […]

Regis Prograis was knocked down and wobbled over the course of his fight with Devin Haney – a man he had previously taunted as being unable to crack an egg.
