Podcast appearances and mentions of Oleksandr Usyk

Examining the bombastic rise of Fabio Wardley which has now astonishingly left Joseph Parker scrambling for breath in the rubble below. But should Parker be punished too severely for rolling the dice again? And we also wonder whether Oleksandr Usyk will really entertain a contest with Wardley at this stage of his career. It looks like we're heading for Derek Chisora-Dillian Whyte III, yet another contest set to get the PPV debate boiling over. And in keeping with the heavyweight theme, we cruise back to 1990 and the night when Evander Holyfield popped the Buster Douglas bubble. Getting sick of those adverts? Loving the podcast?

I didn't see this coming, nor did many. Fabio Wardley stops Joseph Parker. WOW! Hear our thoughts on the stoppage, plus Dakota goes on a rant about Parker not getting a chance against a champion. We don't have much to say about he undercard as well. We also talk about Joshua Pagan's impressive win over Maliek Montgomery on DAZN Thursday night. On Thursday, Mikaela Mayer faces junior middleweight beltholder Mary Spencer for the title. The bout will be streamed and we will explain how to watch. It has a good undercard with Arthur Biyarslanov taking on Sergey Lipinets, and Wilkens Mathieu facing Shakeel Phinn as noteworthy bouts. On Saturday, we have two fight cards, one in the U.S. and one in Europe. In the U.K., Joshua Buatsi will face Zach Parker in a light heavyweight contender bout, and Bradley Rea will fight Lyndon Arthur in a light heavyweight bout. In the U.S., rising heavyweight contender Lenier Pero will face Jordan Thompson. Thompson is moving up after being stopped by Jai Opetaia. Pero could be a real force. Other fights, a crossroads junior middleweight bout between Yoelvis Gomez against Antraveous Ingram. Cruiserweight Pat Brown will face fringe contender Felix Valera in an interesting bout. Junior middleweight Olympians Nishant Dev and Omari Jones will both fight on the undercard in separate bouts. Timestamps0:00 Fabio Wardley-Joseph Parker7:45 The stoppage13:40 Oleksandr Usyk vs Fabio Wardley17:30 Joshua Pagan-Maliek Montgomery25:15 Mikaela Mayer-Mary Spencer35:40 Joshua Buatsi-Zach Parker40:00 undercard43:30 Lenier Pero-Jordan Thompson47:00 undercard52:30 rants and rumors

Joseph Parker and Fabio Wardley each risk their position in the heavyweight sweepstakes while knowing only the winner of their collision will be invited to challenge Oleksandr Usyk. Parker will rightly be the favourite but is the New Zealander's ‘renaissance' being overstated when one examines his recent opponents more carefully? Throw in Wardley's astonishing will to win, alongside the potency he possesses when his punches land clean, and suddenly, the outcome widely expected might be turned on its head. Elsewhere, the TKO invasion is gathering pace while drawing irk from Eddie Hearn and Oscar De La Hoya; George Liddard proves he's going places; Danny Garcia might not be going anywhere; and, in This Week, we head back in time for some vintage Matthew Saad Muhammad mayhem.

In this episode, we start with the lead, which is Danny Garcia, a Hall of Famer? Dakota went to his fight last night and provided insight on the whole card, including Chris Colbert's comeback win, Reshati Mati, Damian Knyba, and Gabriel Rosado's wins...but the big takeaway is what is Garcia's legacy? CHEAP PLUG, I also wrote about this here: https://www.boxingscene.com/articles/has-danny-garcia-put-together-a-hall-of-fame-careerAlso watch Dakota's new video on  @ITRboxing here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDDpRztUIpYThen we move on to the MVP card in Texas, in which Lourdes Juarez, the WBC junior flyweight titleholder and younger sister of Mariana Juarez, won a close decision over Yesica Nery Plata. The fight was world-class and is a credit to MVP as this is the type of bout two-to-three years ago, that would be buried on an undercard or not shown at all.In the co-feature, Omar Juarez broke down Omar Rosario to win 10-round UD, but Juarez's younger brother, Sebastian, was the star of the night. Sebastian Juarez was dropped in the first round, lost a point, only to stop Demarcus Layton, in what pretty clearly was the 'Round of the Year'Other notables on this card: Unified women's middleweight champion Desley Robinson stopped Logan Holler in two rounds, and super middleweight Ronny Alvarez is a bad boy, as he looked like a 21-year-old Cuban fighter who can move up the ranks fast. In L.A., Albert Gonzalez defeated Leonardo Baez, as he continues to be my No.1 prospect in the sport. Other Top Rank fighters featured on the card were Andres Cortes and Elvis Rodriguez, who both got wins. Perla Bazaldua and Yazmin Martinez Jimenez fought to a draw. In the U.K., George Liddard became a major player as he stopped Kieron Conway in a fun fight, Shannon Ryan defeated Chloe Watson after Watson suffered an eye injury early in the fight The bout went to the cards. Tiah Mai Ayton and Jimmy Sains also got stoppage wins. This week...we have the WBC Grand Prix tournament taking place. One of the more fun events that we have seen in some time. Thursday, Salita Promotions returns in Puerto Rico with a great main event between unbeaten Joshua Pagan and Maliek Montgomery. Ashleyann Lozada vs. Melissa Oddessa Parker is a solid co-feature at women's middleweight. Then, the big fight on DAZN pay-per-view. Joseph Parker will face Fabio Wardley. The winner would face Oleksandr Usyk at some point if Usyk decides to continue boxing. The undercard is as regional as it gets as Lewis Edmondson vs. Ezra Taylor, but not much else stands out. Contender alert: Rene Calixto Bibiano will face Hasanboy Dusmatov in an IBF flyweight eliminator fight.

"The Smashing Machine" is a biographical sports drama film written, directed, produced, and edited by Benny Safdie. It stars Dwayne Johnson as former amateur wrestler and MMA fighter Mark Kerr, alongside Emily Blunt as Kerr's girlfriend Dawn Staples, with Ryan Bader, Bas Rutten, and Oleksandr Usyk in supporting roles.

Joseph Parker admits he's wary of the latest heavyweight standing in the way of another shot at a world boxing belt. The Kiwi faces big-hitting Brit Fabio Wardley in London in just over a fortnight, with a hopeful title fight against undisputed Ukrainian champion Oleksandr Usyk sometime early next year. Parker says he's watched Wardley's last few fights, and he always finds a way to step it up and get the results, with 18 K-Os in his 19 wins. But he told Piney that he feels like for this fight, Wardley's stepped up a little too far. “I do feel like with the experience that I have, I know he possesses power, but like I say to all the other fighters that I've fought, like, bring it on.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textBoxing's heavyweight renaissance takes center stage as we unpack three thrilling encounters that showcase the division's exciting present and future. Oleksandr Usyk's masterful performance against Daniel Dubois demonstrates why many consider him potentially the greatest boxer of this generation - his footwork, angles, and newfound power combining to form a complete fighting package at age 38. "This guy literally - you put him in any era, he could stand in there with the greats."The emergence of 20-year-old Moses Atama provides a glimpse into heavyweight boxing's future, as his stunning two-minute demolition of veteran Dillian White announced his arrival on the big stage. We break down how Atama's relentless pressure and power overwhelmed White from the opening bell, creating the kind of statement performance that instantly elevates a prospect's profile.For fans of old-school heavyweight slugfests, the Filip Hrgović versus Arlene Adeleye bout delivered primitive excitement with two massive men trading thunderous blows. The eighth round particularly captivated us, featuring a knockdown followed by a dramatic momentum shift that exemplifies why heavyweight boxing at its most raw remains uniquely thrilling.The super welterweight division gives us something to discuss as Sebastian Fundora dominates Tim Zuu in their rematch, while we also touch on Raymond Ford's creative Tom and Jerry-themed boxing attire and ESPN KO's emergence following the conclusion of their Top Rank partnership.Looking ahead to September's superfight between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford, we examine why this clash between pound-for-pound elites represents a must-watch moment for both hardcore and casual boxing fans.

Moses Itauma surely ended the career of war-torn Dillian Whyte with a savage first round KO. Itauma was faultless, from his movement to the shot selection and exquisite execution. The potential is seemingly limitless but, before we get too carried away and anoint Itauma as the greatest heavyweight in history, let's apply some context. And when we do that, the truth remains that Itauma is yet to defeat a live contender. With that in mind, surely talk of him challenging Oleksandr Usyk is wildly premature. Or is it? We examine Daniel Dubois' habit of changing trainers when the going gets tough and, in This Week, we head back in time for an early indicator of what was to come in the career of Terence Crawford.
