Send us a textSnow fell, beers cracked, and the fights finally delivered. After a quiet stretch and messy streaming news, we packed a cabin weekend with live cards and walked away with big opinions: a heavyweight slugfest that ended in controversy, a masterclass from a pound-for-pound technician moving up in weight, and a welterweight statement so violent it might have reset the division's pecking order.We start with Fabio Wardley vs Joseph Parker, a back-and-forth brawl that flipped in the 11th when the ref waved it off. Was it an early stoppage or a necessary save? Either way, Parker's grit and Wardley's persistence set the table for a rematch, while the conversation inevitably turned to Oleksandr Usyk and the gulf separating him from most heavyweights. From chaos to craft, Mikaela Mayer put on a clinic against Mary Spencer at 154, running the show with a piston jab and a punishing left hook. The power won't blow you away, but the control, defense, and footwork echo a Mayweather-style mastery that secures rounds and belts.On ProBox, Katsuma Akatsugi stole the show with a ruthless body-attack tutorial—multiple liver knockdowns without a single head-drop finish. Then Tiger Johnson announced himself at 147 with sharper leverage and real power, the kind that translates beyond prospect talk. The weekend peaked when Vergil Ortiz Jr. dismantled Erickson Lubin inside two rounds, a smart stoppage that left no doubt. With Jaron “Boots” Ennis looming, we map a clean path: Boots vs Ortiz, Johnson vs Rashidi Ellis, winners meet, losers regroup, and the welterweight picture finally gets clarity.If you crave honest breakdowns, matchmaking you can actually root for, and a little humor to cut the tension, hit play now. Subscribe, share with a fight friend, and drop your take on the Wardley–Parker stoppage—too soon, or just right?

Kiwi heavyweight boxer Joseph Parker is protesting his innocence, after admitting he failed a drugs test on the day of his defeat to British boxer Fabio Wardley last month in London. News outlets in the UK said the former world champion tested positive for cocaine. Parker says it was a voluntary test and the adverse result was 'a real surprise'. Former professional boxer Junior Fa says this development has come as a shock to New Zealand's wider boxing community. "This is a bit of a shock in terms of lifestyle choice - and from the boxing world, Joe Parker is very, very beloved, everyone loves him. This comes as a shock to everyone."

The Silent Path to Greatness: Lessons from Terence Crawford In a world obsessed with visibility and validation, this episode explores the powerful concept of "quiet greatness" through the lens of boxing champion Terence Crawford's philosophy. What happens when you pursue excellence without seeking attention? When success arrives, it doesn't always bring what you expect. As Crawford wisely observed, "People think success brings friends. It doesn't. It brings silence." This episode unpacks how true achievement often means shrinking circles, revealing who genuinely supports you versus who's simply waiting for your downfall. Timestamps & Key Takeaways: **1:45** - Introduction to Terence Crawford's approach to success* Crawford embodies excellence without seeking attention—training, winning, and returning to work without drama **4:30** - The loneliness of growth and success* When you evolve, your circle naturally shrinks to those who genuinely support your journey **7:15** - Building greatness in silence* True mastery happens when no one's watching—doing the work without needing recognition **10:20** - How success changes your environment* Growth makes others uncomfortable, but you can't dim your light to make others comfortable **12:40** - Episode takeaways* Stop seeking validation—the right path doesn't require applause* Do the work quietly—results speak louder than announcements* Accept a smaller, more authentic circle as you grow* Build your legacy in silence—when it's real, it speaks for itself Ready to embrace the power of quiet greatness in your own life? This episode might just change how you approach success and validation. Sometimes the most profound growth happens when no one's watching. Listen now to discover how focusing on the work—not the recognition—can transform your path to becoming the best version of yourself.

It's been a crazy year for Anthony Joshua and you have to suspect that there are problems for him in the ring and there are problems for him outside the ring. What those problems are, not many of us know but we know that there are problems, and it seems that is the reason he's no longer in the UK. Now, what that means for his career very hard to say but it's very strange that none of the media outlets are asking the right questions.
