A big week for hardcore boxing. We saw WBO welterweight champ Brian Norman knock out Jin Sasaki. Is he the best guy at the division now that Jaron "Boots" Ennis has moved up in weight?Then, we talk about Francisco Rodriguez defeating Galal Yafai. Rodriguez is a lower-weight legend who has been underrated, while Yafai, a 2020 British Olympic gold medalist, is in career limbo. Callum Walsh cut, but wins his fight against Elias Espadas. Welterweight Vernon Brown knocked out Gor Yeritsyan, handing the Armenian fighter his second loss in less than 12 months. The Top Rank card saw Vito Mielnicki Jr win in a hometown fight, but the story of the card was Jahi Tucker defeating Lorenzo "Truck" Simpson. Tucker is a capital G Guy and probably the prospect of the year? Also, Canelo Alvarez-Terence Crawford press tour has started. This week....Liam Paro faces Jonathan Navarro in the middle of the week from Australia. On Friday, Deontay Wilder will face Tyrrell Herndon. The fight is on PPV.com and features Deon Nicholson and Nico Hernandez on the undercard. On Friday on ESPN+. Christian Mbilli will fight Maciej Sulecki. This is a good fight. Undercard notables are Moreno Fendero and Wyatt Sanford. On Saturday, the event of the week is Jake Paul vs. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. on pay-per-view. The co-feature is unified cruiserweight titleholder Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez facing Yuniel Dorticos. A strong undercard consists of a welterweight showdown between Avious Griffin-Julian Rodriguez, a lightweight bout between Floyd Schofield-Tevin Farmer, 10 rounds, the welterweight return of Raul Curiel, a women's lightweight bout between Holly Holm and Yolanda Vega.The depth continues deeper on the card with junior bantamweight John "Scrappy" Ramirez, a sink-or-swim fight for Victor Morales vs. Rene Alvarado, a bantamweight step-up fight between Alexander Gueche vs. Vincent Avina, Welterweight Joel Iriarte and junior flyweight Naomy Valle are also featured. On Saturday on Triller TV, Jean Pascal will fight Michal Cieslak, and cruiserweight Marcus Browne will be in the co-feature. timestamps0:00 Canelo-Crawford Press Tour Starts11:00 Vito Mielnicki Jr18:00 Jahi Tucker-Lorenzo Simpson26:30 Brian Norman Jr.34:14 Francisco Rodriguez-Galal Yafai39:14 360 Promotions 41:10 Liam Paro-Jonathan Navarro43:50 Deontay Wilder-Tyrrell Herndon.51:10 Christian Mbilli-Maciej Sulecki58:02 Jake Paul vs. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.01:08:08 Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez-Yuniel Dorticos. 01:10:10 Floyd Schofield-Tevin Farmer01:14:00 Rest of the card

A very slow week of boxing occurred with the highlights being Richardson Hitchins stopping George Kambosos Jr, which would lead to a call-out of former two-division titleholder Devin Haney. Andy Cruz stopped Hironori Mishiro. This win makes Cruz mandatory for Raymond Muratalla's IBF title. Friday night, two things to talk about: A card in Ghana went on until the early morning with Andrew Tabiti getting a stoppage win, and LeAnna Cruz had to get off the deck to win her fight against Regina Chavez. Israel Mercado upset Branden Pizarro in the co-feature. Looking ahead to Thursday, WBO welterweight titleholder Brian Norman Jr faces Jin Sasaki. Is this a Fight of the Year or a mismatch? We discuss. From Thursday to Saturday, the WBC Grand Prix will enter the second round. This has provided some very exciting bouts so far. Friday on DAZN, David Stevens vs. Petr Khamukov will meet in a crossroads match. Saturday on DAZN, Galal Yafai vs. Francisco Rodriguez will take center stage with Peter McGrail in the co-feature. Saturday on ESPN+, Vito Mielnicki Jr. will face Kamil Gardzielik, other notables on the card, Jahi Tucker vs Lorenzo Simpson, which is a great fight, Brandun Lee, and Jamar Talley.Saturday on UFC Fight Pass, Callum Walsh will face Elias Espadas in a very good match-up we will explain.

Michael begins by reflecting on the immediate aftermath of his highly controversial exit from the 2016 Olympics. Following this pivotal moment, he shifted his focus to professional boxing, opting to partner with Top Rank promotions in the United States. Michael discusses the process of relocating with his family to the U.S. and recounts his early successes in the professional arena. It wasn't long before he found himself headlining St. Patrick's Day events at Madison Square Garden in New York, captivating a large Irish audience. He opens up about the significant backlash he faced back home, stemming from the controversy surrounding his ring entrance music, and how some of the public's perception of him does not reflect his true character. Our conversation delves into notable bouts from his pro career, including a gratifying victory over his 2016 Olympic rival, Vladimir Nikitin, at MSG. He also secured both WBO and WBA continental titles, including a great win against former world champion TJ Doheny at Falls Park in 2021. This then positioned Michael for that much-anticipated shot at the world title against Leigh Wood in 2022. The matchup was unforgettable and Fight of the Year, but the last round defeat was the first setback in Michael's pro career. After some good wins, back-to-back defeats against Luis Alberto Lopez and Jordan Gill, Michael took a break from the ring for over a year to regroup. During this hiatus, he remained active, discovering a new passion for running and successfully completed a marathon in under three hours—a challenge he set for himself and accomplished. However, the call of boxing was undeniable, and following a 15-month absence, a recent victory has set him back on the right path. Michael continues to harbor ambitions of capturing that elusive world title, with the final chapter of his professional career yet to be written.
