BoxingScene's 2025 Upset of the Year

Armando Resendiz’s split decision win over Caleb Plant, which gobsmacked fans and gummed up future plans, is BoxingScene’s 2025 Upset of the Year.

A late double entry for Upset of the Year and Knockout of the Year was produced Saturday in Tijuana, Mexico, when Yahir Frank flattened Argi Cortes with the only punch thrown in their fight.

Earlier this week, the IBF ordered a fight between Josh Kelly and junior middleweight titleholder Bakhram Murtazaliev, and now Kelly has been ranked No. 1 in the WBO’s latest ratings update.

"They always say you are a real trainer when you bring someone from the amateurs to the top," Mike Bazzel tells Lucas Ketelle.

Graduation night arrived Saturday for Xander Zayas, whose disciplined performance resulted in a title-winning unanimous decision over Jorge Garcia in New York.

Saturday’s fight, for the vacant WBO junior-middleweight title, between Xander Zayas and Jorge Garcia Perez can enhance the already appealing-and-competitive landscape at 154lbs.

The vacant WBO 154lbs title fight between Zayas and Garcia will headline an ESPN tripleheader from The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Jorge Garcia had a good feeling about his last fight, in more ways than one, writes Jake Donovan.

Xander Zayas will receive his first world title opportunity Saturday at his now-familiar haunting grounds – the Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York – against Jorge Garcia Perez.

When Sebastian Fundora vacated one of his two junior middleweight world titles in order to make a rematch with Tim Tszyu, that left the WBO belt vacant. On Saturday, the sanctioning body’s top two contenders – Xander Zayas and Jorge Garcia Perez – will fight for their first world title.
