Veteran trainer Abel Sanchez doesn’t exactly approve of the stylistic changes his former charge, Gennadiy Golovkin, has made to his approach in the ring.
Jermell Charlo is none too pleased with how the proceedings of his upcoming rematch with Brian Castano has thus far played out. The 154-pound full unification clash pitting Charlo’s WBA, WBC, and IBF titles against Castano’s WBO belt, was supposed to take place March 19 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, but Castano ended up suffering a right biceps injury, forcing him to withdraw. The fight, as BoxingScene.com previously reported, has been rescheduled for May 14 on Showtime, although the venue has not yet been determined. Their first bout, which took place last July at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, ended in a somewhat controversial split decision draw.
Jermell Charlo is aware that his intense skepticism of Brian Castano’s recent biceps injury may make him sound like he is some Zapruder film debunker.
Apparently, there is no such thing as “keeping it in the gym” for Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte when it comes to their infamous sparring sessions. Fury, the WBC heavyweight titlist, doubled down on an oft-repeated assertion that he “battered” Whyte many times in sparring sessions that presumably took place many years ago.
Anthony Joshua apparently has no plans on being a neutral observer for the upcoming all-British heavyweight title defense between WBC beltholder Tyson Fury and his mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte.
Even after a close review, trainer Ben Davison simply can’t see how his charge, Josh Taylor, got away with a “highway robbery”, as some have called Taylor's recent controversial points win over Jack Catterall.
If Anthony Joshua has truly found the new trainer he has been hinting at for the past several months, he didn’t have to look too far. The British sporting star and former heavyweight champion casually informed reporters Saturday night in London at the OVO Arena Wembley for the Deji vs. Alex Wassabi YouTuber card that his main trainer at the moment is actually someone who has been a familiar face in his corner in recent years, Angel Fernandez.
Trainer Shane McGuigan couldn’t help but feel like a disappointed parent watching his former charge Josh Taylor pick up a controversial decision the other night.
Trainer Marc Ramsay is no fan of the seemingly well-intentioned but, in his view, wrongheaded rash of punitive measures enacted recently by boxing’s major sanctioning bodies.
Anthony Joshua is apparently trying to soak in as much boxing knowledge from as many sources as possible for his upcoming rematch against Oleksandr Usyk.
