Magnificent Seven Preview Magnificent Seven preview This Saturday several of the best fighters in Britain appear on a bumper Frank Warren promotion called “The Magnificent Seven” Though a few weeks back we had Darren Barker & Ryan Rhodes pull of there respective fights some good work behind the scene’s saw both fights saved with replacements stepping in. Here we look at the fights that make up an exciting night of Boxing that kicks off at 6pm on SKY PPV. Nathan Cleverly –V- Karo Murat WBO Light Heavyweight Title Eliminator. http://www.15rounds.com/q-a-with-nathan-cleverly-031610/ http://www.15rounds.com/q-a-with-karo-murat-072710/ Hometown; Cefn Forest. Wales Kitzingen, Germany Record; 19-0(9) 22-0(13) Rounds boxed; 101 121 KO% 47 59 Age; 23 27 Height; 6’3 5’10 Rankings; The Ring Cleverly 8 Murat 6, Neither fighter rated in the top 15 by WBC or WBA. IBF Cleverly 4 & Murat 11 & WBO Cleverly 2 & Murat 3. Betting 1/4 11/4 This fight is see’s both guys fighting the best fighter they have to date. Cleverly will look to dominate with the jab and put Murat on the back foot using his height and reach advantages. By the mid rounds Murat will become marked up and frustrated at being repeatedly caught trying to get inside. To Murat’s credit he’ll continue to try, while Cleverly will build up the points on way to a comfortable decision. Enzo Maccarinelli –V- Alexander Frenkel European Cruiserweight Title http://www.15rounds.com/q-a-with-enzo-maccarinelli-082610/ http://www.15rounds.com/q-a-with-alexander-frankel/ Hometown; Swansea, Wales Wurzberg, Germany Record; 32-4(25) 22-0(17) Rounds Boxed; 128 74 KO% 69 77 Age; 30 25 Height; 6’4 6’1 Rankings; Neither fighter ranked in the Ring top 10; WBC Maccarinelli 8 Frenkel 7; WBA Maccarinelli 3 Frenkel 2; IBF Maccarinelli 11 Frenkel 6 & WBO Maccarinelli unranked Frenkel 12. Betting 4/7 11/8 One thing that you can always guarantee with a Maccarinelli fight is fireworks. Both guys will start cautiously of the others power. That wont last long as they’ll quickly engage. I’d be surprised to see this one go beyond half way with Maccarinelli’s edge in power seeing him score an impressive stoppage. Matthew Macklin -V- Shalva Jomardashvili Vacant European Middleweight Title http://www.15rounds.com/q-a-with-matthew-macklin-091410/ Hometown; Birmingham, England Gori, Georgia Record; 26-2(18) 27-2-1(19) Rounds Boxed; 133 139 KO 64 63 Age; 28 23 Height; 5’10 5’9 Rankings; The Ring Macklin 5, WBC 5, WBA 5, IBF 9, WBO 8. Jomardashvili unranked by any of the organisations. Betting 1/25 10/1 The always professional Macklin wont have a problem finding Jomardashvili who’s a come forward brawler. Look for Macklin who can be a quick starter to get off to a good start and make an impression by pushing Jomardashvili backwards from there he’ll methodically breakdown the tough durable Georgian until finally around the fifth or sixth he’ll bludgeon his brave but outgunned opponent to the canvas before seeing the fight called off. Matthew Hall –V- Lucas Konecny Vacant European Light Middleweight Title Hometown; Manchester, England Usti nad Labem, Czech Republic Record; 23-2(16) 44-3(21) Rounds Boxed; 91 287 KO 64 45 Age; 26 32 Height; 5’7 5’8 Rankings; Both unranked by The Ring, Hall is also unranked in any of the organisations while Konecny is ranked 8 by the IBF & 6 WBO. Betting 6/5 8/13 Pocket dynamo Hall was already in training for a fight when Ryan Rhodes pulled of this fight so sharpness shouldn’t be a problem Konecny could be a whole different ball game though. Konecny is battle hardened and has two wins over Khoren Gevor (who went on to challenge for world titles at 160 & 168) & only lost a split decision to the super talented Sergei Dzindziruk. The signs all point to Konecny being a bit to seasoned and having to much no how for Hall who will start well but fade by the middle rounds before coming on down the stretch before losing a spirited unanimous decision that will raise his profile while Konecny will be able to push for a second World title fight. Kell Brook –V- Michael Jennings British Welterweight Title http://www.15rounds.com/q-a-with-kell-brook-081010/ Hometown; Sheffield, England Chorley, England Record; 21-0(14) 36-2(17) Rounds Boxed; 78 213 KO 67 45 Age; 24 33 Height; 5’9 5’9 Rankings; Both unranked by The Ring, WBO Brook 1 & Jennings 10. Betting 1/6 4/1 Arguably the fight that most people are looking forward too on the card. A battle of youth (Brook) verses experience (Jennings) could be a changing of the guard of sorts with Brook’s star ascending while Jennings could be perhaps on the wane. Brook is very confident and to some may come across as brash even arrogant it’s not though it’s complete belief in his ability, he see’s this as a fight that can help him break out and make a statement. For his part Jennings is a very proud warrior who was out of his league against Miguel Cottobut is determined to prove many wrong and cause the shock. Though he’ll have his moments slowly but surely Brook will chip away until around the ninth Brook will put the shots together and get the stoppage. Derek Chisora –V- Sam Sexton British & Commonwealth Heavyweight Title Hometown; London, England Norwich, England Record; 13-0(8) 13-1(6) Rounds Boxed; 54 70 KO; 62 43 Age; 26 26 Height 6’1 6’2 Betting 2/5 15/8 In a rematch two and a bit years after they first met both guys have improved considerably. It looks nicely poised, however Chisora has been more active of late he possess the better chin and knows he can hurt Sexton having previously stopped him in 6 that makes me think he can repeat it probably around the same time. James Degale –V- Carl Dilks WBA International Super Middleweight Title Hometown; London, England Liverpool, Eng Record; 7-0(5) 14-2(5) Rounds Boxed; 20 84 KO 71 31 Age; 24 26 Height; 6’0 5’11 Betting 1/9 11/2 Last time out Degale fought very aggressively walking down Sam Horton as soon as he realised he couldn’t be hurt. This fight wont be much different Dilks doesn’t have the fire power to make Degale respect him though he is very tough and that should see him give Degale the rounds he needs. Degale will either force a late stoppage or coast to a comfortable decision. Frankie Gavin –V- Michael Kelly Vacant Irish Light Welterweight Title http://www.15rounds.com/q-a-with-funtime-frankie-gavin-090210/ Hometown; Birmingham, England Dundalk, Ireland Record; 7-0(6) 8-2-1(2) Rounds Boxed; 24 41 KO 86 20 Age; 24 35 Height; 5’10 5’8 Betting 1/50 12/1 Fighting at home is an added pressure, that doesn’t seem to phase Gavin in fact he thrives on it. He’ll get some good work in an entertaining fight before scoring a stoppage in the seventh while comfortably ahead. The weight in will take place at 2pm at the LG Arena on Friday 17 September. The Running Order Gates open at 4.30 with the first bell at 5.15 Joe Selkirk-V-TBA 4×3 Light Middleweight Ronnie Heffron-V-Billy Smith 4×3 Welterweight PPV Starts at 6pm James Degale-V-Carl Dilks 12×3 Super Middleweight Matthew Hall-V-Lucas Konecny 12×3 Light Middleweight Nathan Cleverly-V-Kuro Kurat 12×3 Light Heavyweight Kell Brook-V-Michael Jennings 12×3 Welterweight Derek Chisora-V-Sam Sexton 12×3 Heavyweight Swing Bout to be used before 10pm Craig Evans-V-Mickey Coveney 4×3 Super Featherweight After 10pm Enzo Maccarinelli-V-Alexander Frenkel 12×3 Cruiserweight Matthew Macklin-V-Shalva Jombardashvili 12×3 Middleweight Frankie Gavin-V-Michael Kelly 10×3 Light Welterweight Don Broadhurst-V-Najah Ali 10×3 Super Flyweight.

  • Maccarinelli Aims for Third World Title Against Great Jones Jnr
    MACCARINELLI AIMS FOR THIRD WORLD TITLE AGAINST GREAT JONES JNR Welsh star Enzo Maccarinelli will challenge American legend Roy Jones Jnr. for the Vacant WBA Super World Cruiserweight Championship on Saturday 12 December at the VTB Ice Palace in Moscow, Russia, televised exclusively live in the UK on BoxNation. Maccarinelli aims to become a three-time world champion at 200lbs by defeating Jones, a former five time and three weight-division world champion, who became a Russian citizen on Tuesday after being presented with a passport by President Vladimir Putin. The sledge-hammer hitting Swansea ace has registered 31 wins by knockout from 40 wins in 47 fights and has previously won British and European titles at cruiserweight and the Commonwealth title at light-heavyweight. ‘Big Mac’ has been campaigning at light-heavyweight for the last three years and challenged for the WBO World title last year against Juergen Braehmer, but the fight was stopped in the fifth round after Maccarinelli couldn’t see out of his right eye after a clash of heads in the opening round. Although Maccarinelli respects Jones for his incredible ring achievements and acknowledges he was the greatest fighter of the 1990s, he says he will knockout Jones to realise his dream of becoming world champion for a third time. “Jones was a great great fighter, certainly the best of his era and a fighter that I admired, but that has to be put to one side as I have my job to do and that’s to knock him out and win the world title,” Said Maccarinelli.

    Groves and Douglin come face- to-face at final press conference G e o r g e G r o v e s ( 1 9 - 2, 15 KOs) and Denis Douglin (17-3, 10 KOs) came face-to-face for the first time at today’s press conference ahead of their WBC Silver World Super Middleweight Championship fight on Saturday night, live on Sky Sports Box Office. There is a lot on the line for the ‘Saint’, who risks both his WBC Silver title and WBC mandatory position, when he faces the ‘Mommas Boy’ in front of a sell out crowd at the Echo Arena in Liverpool. ‘It’s great to be back boxing in Liverpool,’’ said Groves. ‘’It’s been a successful place for me in the past. On Saturday, it’s going to be a great night of boxing and I’m really looking forward to it. ‘’It’s good to finally see Denis. He seems super charged and up for the fight. I’m expecting a tough fight but I’m fully prepared for it. We’ve had a fantastic camp. I’m ready to put into practice what we’ve been working on the past year. This is when we can really step it up a notch.’’ ‘’I’m truly excited for this fight,’’ said Douglin. ‘’I’ve come here to win! I didn’t come over here just to lie down as an opponent. Although I’ve only had twenty fights, I consider myself a veteran. I’ve lost against people I wasn’t meant to lose against and beaten people I wasn’t supposed to beat.
