Iniutos ng Nevada State Athletic Commission na pagbawalan sina WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder at lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury na mag-faceoff para sa kanilang weigh-in matapos magkainitan sa kanilang final press conference.
Nagpalitan ng maaanghang na salit ang dalwang boksingero na kalauna’y nauwi sa tulukan. Bahagyang natigil ang tension upang ganapin ang question and answer ngunit muling nag-init ang dalawa at nagpatuloy sa pagpapalitan ng mga salita.

Dahil sa insidente, inutos ang pagbabawal ng face-off matapos ang kanilang weigh-in na siya namang ikinagulat ng Top Rank president.
“In my 25 years in boxing, I’ve never heard of an administrative body stepping in and prohibiting faceoff. It’s the pinnacle moment before the fight. I am just shocked,” wika ni TP president Todd deBoef, stepson ni TP promoter Bob Arum, sa interview nito sa theScore.
Bagama’t ikinagulat ay sinang-ayunan naman ito ng magkabilang panig.
Inaaasahan namang mas magiging mainit ang aksyon mula sa dalawang nangunguna sa heavyweight division pagpatak ng fight night.

PONCIANO

Two-weight world Mexican champ Luis Nery (35 wins – 1 loss – 0) mocked the undefeated “Japanese monster” Naoya Inoue (26 wins – 0 loss) as ordinary and overrated hyping their fight at Tokyo Dome in Japan May 6, 2024.

31-year old Inoue will defend his undisputed super bantamweight title against Nery.

29-year-old challenger Nery has the WBC and Ring magazine bantamweight titles plus the WBC super bantamweight title from 2020 to May 2021.

On the other hand, the undisputed Inoue who holds WBA and IBF titles plus WBC and WBO belts has never lost except a decision with Filipino ‘flash’ Nonito Donaire last 2011.

Francis Ngannou cries ‘deception’ vs Anthony Joshua camp

Former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou accused AJ camp of ‘trickery’ when he suffered devastating knockdowns in the first and second round last March 8, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The MMA fighter and former UFC heavyweight champion said that AJ camp sabotaged him by letting him go early in the arena.

“We both fought at 3am. What I think, something that’s happened is that they get me to the arena very early. Like my pickup time was 10.30pm to go to the arena. And then when we get to the arena, they tell us that we are scheduled around 1.45am. right?” Ngannou blurted.

He believed that he came exhausted, which resulted in his humiliating defeat.
