  • Press Conference Quotes from Matchroom Boxing Usa in Boston
    PRESS CONFERENCE QUOTES FROM MATCHROOM BOXING USA IN BOSTON Eddie Hearn, President of Matchroom Boxing USA: “I am thrilled to be bringing this triple-header of World championship action to the TD Garden in Boston. “We want to take major fight nights to major cities across America that haven’t had the chance to witness this great sport in the flesh, that’s why we’re in Chicago on October 6 and then in Boston on October 20 – we’re taking this great sport to great cities in great arenas like the TD Garden with the best night of boxing the city has seen.” Billy Joe Saunders – Hertfordshire, England – 26 (12) – 0 – defending his WBO World Middleweight title against Demetrius Andrade “This is such a big fight. The two main men at Middleweight at the moment is GGG and Canelo – and neither of them want to fight me or Demetrius. There’s a lot of smoke and mist in the division right now, and when it clears up I will be the man standing there. “All jokes and trash talk aside, this is going to be a really good fight. Does anyone want to fight Demetrius? No. Does anyone want to fight me? No. We have to fight each other to prove who the number one guy is. Technically, we are the best two in the division, and the winner is going to be number one. I’m World champion, I’ve been more active, I’ve boxed the better opposition – but I have to beat this man. “David Lemieux is a bum, a bum – he’s not worth talking about and I don’t take any credit from beating him.

Both champions retained their titles on a doubleheader last April 30. Jack and DeGale will face off in a long-awaited unification to determine the No. 1 fighter in the super middleweight division on Saturday, January 14, 2017 at Barclays Center in New York.

  • Snips and Snipes 8 February 2018 the Threat That the IOC May Drop Boxing from the 2020 Olympic Games Should Come As No Surprise
    Snips and Snipes 8 February 2018 The threat that the IOC may drop boxing from the 2020 Olympic Games should come as no surprise. For a few years now the AIBA which has responsibility for administrating International “amateur” boxing-but let’s not kid ourselves the Olympics Games are no longer for amateurs-have too long been focusing on making money rather than developing the sport. For a few years they have through the WSB and other initiatives helped make the transition from AIBA to professional boxing easier for elite boxers. However they have failed to tackle the quality of judging and refereeing and have failed to put in place and to police internal controls leaving themselves open to allegations of mismanagement and profligacy taking the organisation to the edge of bankruptcy. The criticism over their handling of boxing at the Rio Olympics had already put them under the IOC spotlight and then they went and shot themselves in the foot over the appointment of an interim President . They selected a man who has been sanctioned by the United States Treasury Department for alleged links to a major “transnational criminal organisation”. I can almost imagine the conversation “We need an interim President let’s appoint Gafur Rakhimov” with one voice saying “ isn’t he sanctioned by the United States Treasury Department for alleged link to a major “transnational criminal organisation”. “Yes sounds just the man for the job”! A ban from the Olympics would be a huge blow for boxing’s prestige but it is more difficult to decide whether it would have any repercussions for professional boxing.

  • Roy Jones Jr. to Face Mike Tyson in Historic "Exhibition Match"
    November 23, 2020 SEVILLE QUARTER CONTACT: BUCK MITCHELL MARKETING & ENTERTAINMENT DIRECTOR [email protected] 850-434-6211 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ROY JONES JR. TO FACE MIKE TYSON IN HISTORIC "EXHIBITION MATCH" PENSACOLA, Fl. – Get ready for the most anticipated fight in the history of boxing, reminiscent to professional bouts featuring immortal fighters like Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier. Roy Jones Jr., 51 and Iron Mike Tyson, 54 enter the ring against each other for an eight-round “Exhibition Fight” at The Staples Center in Los Angeles (without fans in attendance). The fight will be shown on PPV at Seville Quarter in Downtown Pensacola (Jones’s hometown) on Saturday, November 28, 2020. The fights, including undercard fights, will start at 8pm. Jones (66-9), former four-division World Champion challenges Tyson (50-6), former undisputed Heavyweight World Champion. The fight is scheduled to take place on Thanksgiving weekend, November 28, 2020. The bout is officially sanctioned by the California State Athletic Commission with the WBC Frontline Battle Belt on the line. The Jones-Tyson comeback fight is labeled an ‘Exhibition,’ but that does not mean it is solely for entertainment purposes. The two boxing legends doubled down and are taking this fight very seriously. The fight already has Jones fired up as Tyson talks about looking for a knockout. Jones is looking forward to his chance to fulfill a bucket-list moment and testing his skills against Tyson. The one question Jones says he always hears from people is, "have you ever fought Mike Tyson?" He says "now I don't have to say 'no' no more." Jones is still taking the fight seriously.
