    Also I think the winner of Ritson Ponce should possibly consider a different career. Especially if Ritson 'wins' another British decision like the Vazquez fight... Guy will get his head taken clean off.

      Always reckoned that was what it was about... can't be an easy thing when a man dies by your hand whether you intended it or not..he also got blasted off his former trainer for not taking his training seriously before the Ananyan fight if I recall correctly, so maybe a bit of both... although his trainer sounds like a bit of a ****head for turning on him publicly.

      Last Saturday night at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, it should have been a showcase for top junior welterweight contender Subriel Matias (15-1, 15 KOs). The boxer had just signed a multi-fight deal with Al Haymon's Premier Boxing Champions, who placed him on the undercard of the highly anticipated rematch between Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury.


      Either way I see the kid becoming a champion before long although whether at 140 or 147 I ain't 100%. He's near 30 now and been fighting at 140+ since he turned pro so a move up wouldn't be a surprise but I reckon he could have more success at 140. Either way great fun fighter to watch... really look forward to seeing him in with the bigger names oin the division. Browny vs Baranchyk or Ergashev would be perfect next I reckon, then in another fight or two one of the divisional top dogs.

        His defense is subtle and it gets overshadowed by his brute aggression but he rolls with shots well and also has a freakin titanium chin Jukembayev was landing clean and hard and he’s a KO artist and even when he kinda buzzed him Matias shook it off quickly.

          Why fight for a title at the weight if you're not even going to fight defend it? Hell, neither RIng or TBRB have Subriel in the top ten lol, so it should be an easy fight by that logic

            Matias will be Ring top ten coMe Tuesday since Jukembayev was #8 by the ring magazine.

              Lol it's just a one off with PBC being creative with their matchmaking. Tank isn't going to actually campaign there.

              Ugh... How Matias is not in there top tens is nuts.

                They both better pray for a draw

                  The 3 0's he snatched were all from guys who are all technically better than him. Jukembayev looking way better than him even. I just want to see on how high a level it works for him.

                    Oh I know, they have no interest in having him campaign there. It's why I shake my head whenever he calls out Regis on social media.

                    And yeah, Matias isn't top 10 so the WBA Regular belt is what he should be going for, not Tank.

                      Can we wait until he fights a world class opponent?
