Boxing: Naoya Inoue Keeps 4 Super Bantam Belts with 27th Straight Title Bout Win

Welcome to the 2025 Award Show. We start with fight breakdowns. In this episode, we break down Saturday morning's telecast from Saudi Arabia. In the main event, Naoya Inoue rather effortlessly defeated David Picasso. It was a showcase of Inoue's great timing and reflexes, but Picasso proved to be a tough foe, hanging on until the final bell. Yet, the story of the night was Junto Nakatani. Nakatani defeated Sebastian Hernandez, but the result left many with more questions than answers. The fight was close, closer than any Nakatani had as a pro prior. Nakatani opted to fight on the inside at times, a difficult move. Some thought Hernandez won, some thought Nakatani won, as did the judges. In the end, the mega-fight between Inoue and Nakatani has taken a massive hit. Also, Erdison Garcia upset previously unbeaten Taiga Imanaga, and IBF flyweight champion Masamichi Yabuki made his second title defense, knocking out Felix Alvarado in 12 rounds. Next week, we get one fight card from Puerto Rico. Amanda Serrano will face Reina Tellez in a 10-round women's title fight broadcast on DAZN. This will be Serrano's first fight against an opponent named Katie Taylor since the summer of 2024. Tellez will be taking a major leap up in competition as she faces the toughest opponent of her career, replacing Erika Cruz. Other notable bouts on the undercard, Stephanie Han, a women's lightweight titleholder, will face legend Holly Holm, who will not just be battling Han, but father time itself. Holm, now in her 40s, is a boxing pioneer who became a legend for knocking out Ronda Rousey. She looks to win a title in the twilight of her career. Notables on the undercard include Yankiel Rivera, Jan-Paul Rivera, Henry Lebron, and Ebanie Bridges. Then, the awards. 0:00 Naoya Inoue-David Picasso13:00 Junto Nakatani-Sebastian Hernandez21:48 Boxer of the Year30:15 Women's Boxer of the Year34:50 Fight of the Year39:10 Women's Fight of the Year40:50 Round of the Year42:00 Trainer of the Year44:30 Knockout of the Year46:30 Prospect of the Year49:00 Story of the Year54:00 Vergil Ortiz vs Jaron “Boots” Ennis58:40 Guys who didn't fight enough59:25 Illegal Manuevers 01:01:28 Guy who came out of nowhere award.01:04:52 Good job, bub award01:07:00 The lost all momentum guy 01:08:30 The 2026 Breakout Fighter will be…01:10:00 Amanda Serrano-Reina Tellez Preview

Teddy Atlas breaks down the spectacle of Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua, recapping why he thought this fight would go more rounds than most people expected. While many anticipate a quick and violent ending from Joshua, Teddy outlines the factors that could extend the fight into deeper rounds — including Joshua's recent inactivity, the massive ring size, and Joshua's tendency at times to be a slow starter. Teddy also reflects on the legendary career of Terence “Bud” Crawford following his retirement announcement. He discusses Crawford's rare versatility, ring IQ, mental toughness, instincts and ability to dominate across multiple weight classes. Teddy places Crawford among the true modern greats, comparing his résumé, skill set, and dominance to other all-time elite fighters and explaining where Bud fits historically in the pantheon of boxing legends.Finally, Teddy previews a huge weekend of action from Saudi Arabia, breaking down Naoya Inoue vs. David Picasso and Junto Nakatani vs. Sebastian Reyes. Teddy explains why Inoue's pressure, power, and precision make him one of the most dangerous fighters in the world, while also noting what Picasso must do to survive and compete. He then turns to Nakatani, highlighting his size, technique, and finishing ability, and explains why Reyes faces an uphill battle against one of boxing's most complete and dangerous champions.Thanks for being with us.

Trained by his father David Leo, he turned professional in 2012, won the WBO super-bantamweight title in 2020 against Tramaine Williams, and lost it in his first defense to Stephen Fulton in 2021—his only career defeat. After moving to 126 pounds, Leo captured the IBF featherweight title in August 2024 with a knockout win over Luis Alberto Lopez and defended it in May 2025 against Tomoki Kameda by majority decision. He currently holds a record of 26–1 (12 KOs) and is scheduled to defend the IBF title in early 2026 in Albuquerque.In this episode, Leo participates in a conversation covering his journey in the sport. The Albuquerque, New Mexico native discusses his upcoming title defense against Lerat Diamini, and shares his thoughts on the current featherweight world champions and the state of the 126-pound division. He reflects on winning the IBF belt in Japan, and reflects on his defeat to Stephen Fulton. Leo also talks about a past training-camp visit from Floyd Mayweather, his conversations with Hall of Famer Juan Manuel Márquez, and the challenges of navigating the early part of his career without a manager amid promotional difficulties. Additional topics include his experience fighting abroad, adjustments made since becoming champion, and what lies ahead in one of boxing's most competitive divisions.-------------------- Find all things The Last Round Boxing Podcast -------------------- All Show Links

Send us a textBoxing's landscape shifted dramatically as Terence Crawford accomplished the seemingly impossible - jumping two weight classes to dethrone Canelo Alvarez and claim all the super middleweight belts. The historic victory was a masterclass in precision, timing, and fight IQ as Crawford neutralized Canelo's power advantage with superior movement and consistent output across all twelve rounds.The episode dives deep into how Crawford's strategy unfolded, analyzing the key moments that led to his undisputed championship victory. We break down Canelo's late surge in the championship rounds and discuss why it ultimately proved insufficient against Crawford's dominance. Between Crawford's mariachi-themed entrance (complete with trolling Canelo) and the pound-for-pound implications of this result, this fight delivered drama despite not becoming the slugfest some anticipated.But the true fight of the night award goes to Christian Mbilli versus Lester Martinez - an absolute barnburner that ended in a draw. We examine this under-the-radar classic that featured haymakers, heart, and non-stop action worthy of an immediate rematch. The episode also covers other notable weekend action including Naoya Inoue's continued dominance at super bantamweight and Lewis Crocker's split decision victory over Paddy Donovan.We take a moment to pay respects to boxing legend Ricky Hatton, who passed away at just 46 years old, reflecting on his impact on the sport and the shock of his untimely death. The conversation winds through other topics including Max Kellerman's controversial commentary and Top Rank's streaming situation, all delivered with our signature blend of analysis and humor.Listen now for our complete breakdown of a transformative weekend in boxing history.

In this episode, we recap an amazing fight between Terence Crawford and Canelo Alvarez. We get both of the guys takes as well as thoughts on Lester Martinez, Christian Mbilli, and Brandon Adams-Serhii Bohachuk. Also, what to make of Callum Walsh, who defeated Fernando Vargas Jr, and what did Dakota think of the overall television product?Also, Naoya Inoue defeats Murodjon Akhmadaliev. The bout streamed on Facebook, which I am not mad at because that means it was free. Inoue continues to impress.This is followed by a general recap of all things boxing this week. Lewis Crocker fights like Adonis Stevenson to win a split decision over Paddy Donovan. Caoimhin Agyarko won a narrow split decision over Ishmael Davis on that card. On Thursday, WBO flyweight champion Anthony Olascuaga stopped Juan Carlos Camacho. Also, Jalil Hackett was a stand-out, getting a stoppage, while up-and-comer Justin Viloria had a hard night, and Jamar Talley is still an interesting prospect. On Wednesday, we had a card which had the fewest fan favor. Mikie Tallon stood-out when he dropped Christian Robles twice en route to a decision victory. Bek Nurmaganbet stopped Steven Stumper in three rounds, Cuban heavyweight Yoandy Toirac was lucky to get a draw with Skylar Lacy as well. This week, on Thursday, former titleholder Liam Paro returns to Australia. He is in an IBF welterweight eliminator against David Papot. He would be the mandatory for Lewis Crocker. Salita Promotions returns on DAZN with a good card at the top as, Brandon Moore faces DeAndre Savage in a 10-round heavyweight main event, and Olivia Curry vs. Kaye Scott fight for a vacant women's middleweight title. Middleweight Da'velle Smith will also be featured on this card. On Saturday, Golden Boy Promotions returns with a doubleheader. Unified 105lbs champion Oscar Collazo will face Jayson Vayson, and Gabriela Fundora will put her undisputed flyweight champion titles on the line against late-sub Alexas Kubicki. Also featured are junior welterweight Ruslan Abdullaev, welterweight Joel Iriarte, and junior middleweight Grant Flores. On DAZN, OTX Boxing returns with junior welterweight Breyon Gorham as the feature bout, and WBC women's featherweight champ Tiara Brown making her first title defense. Timestamps 0:00 Crawford-Canelo recap7:10 Crawford ATG? 13:45 Canelo's legacy22:40 Callum Walsh-Fernando Vargas Jr31:00 Christian Mbilli-Lester Martinez 40:00 Brandon Adams-Serhii Bohachuk II44:00 Naoya Inoue50:20 R.I.P.

Nunez won the vacant title earlier this year in a very fun fight. It is strange that Nunez is not getting more publicity. Also, in Mexico, Oscar Valdez will return to the ring for the first time in 2025 against Richard Medina, a former Raymond Ford opponent. I am not sure if we can watch it, but it is good to have him back.
