This Was A Boxing Clinic From Martinez

Published

Martinez Chavez Jr 120915 006aA rematch would likely go to Martinez, possibly in even more dominant fashion, the writer says. What say you, readers? (Chris Farina-Top Rank)

Essentially, on Saturday night for eleven and a half rounds, we witnessed a cruiserweight being thoroughly outthought, outfought and outclassed by a super-middleweight, in as one-sided a contest for the middleweight championship of the world as you're ever likely to see. Despite the theatrical nature of the last minute and a half of the fight, which saw Sergio Martinez dropped from a manifold of left hooks up on the ropes shortly after being wobbled by a right hand as he was backing away, the fight wasn't the least bit competitive. Even upon rising to his feet, Martinez probably did enough to win the remaining moments of that round too, catching and hurting Chavez during an exchange with rights and lefts. As a result, Sergio Martinez now takes his record to 50-2-2 {28} while Chavez Jr, suffering the first loss of his career, is now at 46-1-1{32}.

It was said here before the fight that Sergio Martinez's superior hand and foot speed –and Chavez's lack of– would be the main difference between the two fighters and it was. Chavez, reduced to following his man around the ring for round after round,found it almost impossible to set himself in order to let his hands go, such was Martinez's quickness at redirecting his movement and in launching his offense. Constantly playing catch-up, Chavez was beaten to the punch throughout the night. You see, the problem for Chavez, as was also previously mentioned here, is that Chavez's style doesn't bode well on the score cards. In other words, unless he actually stops his opponent, he's always going to find it difficult to avoid being outworked across twelve rounds. Because Chavez doesn't throw punches until he's planted his feet once he's found his way inside, he allowed Sergio Martinez, who can throw punches on the move, to throw 908 punches, most of which came at him with Martinez on the back foot. With Martinez moving laterally, side to side and in and out, Chavez, a lineal attacker, couldn't get Martinez in front of him for long enough to put anything together. Hence, the notion of Chavez walking forward without punching and losing rounds. Of course there was a real deficit in hand speed, but the real difference maker in the fight was the gulf in foot speed. I lost track of the amount of times Chavez finally appeared to have his man pinned in the corner only for Martinez to turn him and start the process of walking Chavez onto shots all over again. Martinez's better footwork allowed him to always remain one step ahead of Chavez.

It wasn't just Martinez's superb foot work that gave Chavez problems either. Martinez is an extremely intelligent fighter, which is something that often gets lost when discussing his best attributes. Sergio's physical gifts would count for nothing if he didn't know how to apply them intelligently during a fight. That night, as early as the first round, Martinez made a conscious decision to throw a straight left lead to Chavez's body. While the British commentators correctly assumed that it was thrown to slow Chavez down as he would likely be applying more and more pressure as the fight progressed, they never mentioned it's main purpose. If you look at Chavez's guard in the first round, as both fighters were assessing one another, you'll notice that it was extremely high and tight. By throwing a fast, straight left lead into the pit of Chavez's stomach, Martinez forced him into slightly adjusting his guard to compensate. Once a fighter is unaware of what punch is coming next, it becomes increasingly difficult for them to concentrate on anything else. Once Martinez knew he had forced this sensation upon Chavez, we saw a carefully though out, well rounded attack consisting of straight lefts, right hooks and uppercuts. With Chavez's guard now slightly lowered, we saw the same straight left hand thrown up top and threaded through the guard. We also saw him setting traps with it too. Martinez often drifts left, gravitating towards his opponent's right hand, looking to draw it out so that he can simultaneously shift his weight back across to his right and land a straight left hand. Freddie Roach could be heard in the corner during the rounds, describing the direction of Martinez's movement. I wasn't, however, convinced that he was aware of the counter attacking intentions that were linked to it.

It wasn't just the straight left that worked a treat for Martinez either as he also had a lot of success using his jab, doubling and tripling up on it with great effect, even forcing his far bigger opponent onto the back foot as a result of it. Again, because Martinez wasn't just looking to maintain distance with it –he was also looking to hook off of it– the jab kept Chavez guessing and from getting comfortable with what Martinez was doing. As the fight wore on, Chavez had no answer for the speed and precision –not to mention the unpredictability– of Martinez's combinations neither. Martinez often ended his combinations with the right hook, as he was sliding off to his right and on the blindside of Chavez. Again, Chavez found himself constantly being turned and having to reset his feet.

Here's what I didn't see coming; Martinez spent far longer in the pocket than I could ever have imagined. And what's even more impressive is the fact that he was there on his own terms. Before the fight, many thought –myself included– that if any in-fighting were to take place, it would be Chavez who would have the better of it. Time after time, Martinez rewrote the script as he allowed the fight to take place at close quarters. Demoralizingly for Chavez, Martinez actually got the better of it. As Chavez looked to land his vaunted left hook, Martinez found a way to blunt it by pressing his right shoulder into Chavez's chest. By doing this, Chavez's left hook was landing around and away from Martinez's lower body. With the left hook to the body taken away, Martinez found a way to land his left uppercut to Chavez's head in close. Beforehand, nobody gave Martinez a chance on the inside and here he was, with his back to the ropes, actually getting the better of the in-fighting.

This really was a boxing clinic from Martinez. A display of inside/outside, offensive/defensive, back foot/front foot mastery {albeit against an overmatched opponent}. Martinez looked just as comfortable in taking the fight to Chavez as he was in countering him. His versatility on offense ranks among the best in professional boxing. I honestly don't think I've ever seen a 37 year-old fighter whose stamina levels are as high, nor have I seen anyone at that age who's as fast or as mobile as Sergio Martinez is. Going one step further, I believe Martinez may be the best offensive fighter in the sport or at least, the most aesthetically pleasing. Martinez varies the rhythm of his offense –punching and movement– in subtle ways that are difficult for opponents to track and time. He's so seamless when he does it, that his opponents don't know when or how he's doing it. His constant feinting, twitching, circling, trap setting style will continue to be a nightmare for any fighter in or around the middleweight division.

I'm sure most observers would welcome a rematch between the two, with the PR teams possibly playing on the famous Julio Cesar Chavez-Meldrick Taylor theme to spice things up. Ultimately, these two fights were night and day. Chavez Sr was hurting Taylor throughout the fight even though he was losing most of the rounds, whereas Martinez was dominating Chavez Jr in winning just about every second of every round without getting hurt or worn down in the process. Personally, I saw enough Saturday night that suggests to me that a rematch wouldn't look any different. Yes, Chavez hurt Martinez right at the end, but Martinez was obliging Chavez and giving the crowd what they wanted. My gut feeling here is that if he really wanted to, Martinez could have made the fight a lot easier–and a lot less exciting– on himself by staying on the outside. It wasn't necessary for him to do so, but I believe Martinez wanted to make a statement by choosing to go toe-to-toe with Chavez at times.

Unquestionably, this was a great night for boxing. We saw a great performance from Martinez {as well as resiliency}and a great final round. Chavez, who must be commended for his gutsy effort in almost turning things around late on, must be given credit for his chin, which is clearly as good as he said it was. All in all though, could Chavez really go one better next time? By allowing his hands to move more and by applying more intense pressure early on, Chavez could inadvertently give Martinez more counter-punching opportunities than he did last night. It's not beyond the realms of possibility to suggest that Martinez could go one better next time and actually stop Chavez. At the least, Martinez could make it a lot less compelling, which translates to him sticking and moving and avoiding the inside exchanges at all costs, something that wasn't at the top of his agenda Saturday night.

I can see why many would want to see it again, but for me, I saw all I needed to see. Sergio Martinez will always have the style and speed to trump Chavez Jr's size and strength.

As a thought experiment, ask yourself this. If Martinez was dropped in the first round instead of the last, would the calls for a rematch still be as strong? Using that train of thought then, you could say last night was a lot like the Joe Calzaghe-Roy Jones Jr fight in reverse.

And nobody ever wanted to see a sequel to that one-sided showing, did they?

Canelo vs Berlanga Battles the UFC: Hopefully No Repeat of the 2019 Fiasco

Published

on

Canelo-vs-Berlanga-Battles-the-UFC-Hopefully-No-Repeat-of-the-2019-Fiasco

If one happens to be fan of both traditional boxing and MMA, then one has a choice to make this Saturday. Canelo Alvarez will be in action at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas defending his lineal 168-pound world title against Edgar Berlanga and two miles away in a competing Pay-Per-View card, the first-ever sporting event will be staged inside The Sphere, a UFC card bearing the title Riyadh Season Noche 306.

This won’t be the first time that a boxing card featuring the red-headed Mexican superstar went head-to-head with a UFC event. On Nov. 2, 2019, Canelo Alvarez fought Sergey Kovalev at the T-Mobile and 2,500 miles away, MMA stars Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal locked horns at Madison Square Garden. Both cards were PPV. Alvarez vs Kovalev was live-streamed on DAZN; Diaz vs Masvidal on ESPN+.

We don’t know which event generated the most profit, but the way things played out, this was a symbolic win for the UFC. On this night, the venerable sport of boxing and its adherents were reduced to a second-class citizen.

The fault lay with the nitwits at DAZN. They thought it prudent to postpone the start of Alvarez-Kovalev until the Diaz-Masdival fight was finished. What resulted was an interlude that dragged on for a good 90 minutes after Ryan Garcia knocked out Romero Duno in 98 seconds in the semi-wind-up. Then came the ring walks, the National Anthems (there were three), and the long-winded introduction of the combatants. When the bell finally sounded to signify the start of the bout, it was 10:18 inside the arena and 1:18 am for the bleary-eyed folks tuning in back in the Eastern Time Zone. The backlash was fierce.

The competing shows this coming Saturday coincide with Mexican Independence Day Weekend. One might assume that this will give the PBC promotion at the T-Mobile a leg up as Canelo Alvarez is a must-see attraction within the Mexican and Mexican-American communities. However, the UFC card has something going for it that T-Mobile lacks. The venue is itself an allurement. The newest addition to the Las Vegas skyline, The Sphere has the WOW factor. Even long-time Las Vegas locals, supposedly jaded by a surfeit of architectural wonders, are mesmerized by the constantly changing light show on the exterior of the big globe. Inside, visitors will find the world’s highest resolution LED display.

Customizing the interior for UFC 306 was an expensive proposition. UFC honcho Dana White has pegged the cost at $20 million and concedes that without Saudi money it would not have been feasible. He says that Saturday’s show will be “one-off,” not merely the first combat sports event at The Sphere, but also the last because it would be too expensive to replicate. If that be true, attendees are advised to keep their ticket stubs. Years from now, they might command a nice price in the sports memorabilia marketplace.

The T-Mobile has Canelo, but The Sphere has Alexa Grasso who, akin to Canelo, hails from Guadalajara. Ms. Grasso, 31, just may be the second-most-well-known fighter in Mexico. In addition to holding the UFC flyweight title, she is an analyst for the UFC’s Spanish-language broadcasts.

Grasso will be defending her belts against Russia’s Valentina Shevshenko in the co-main. In the featured bout, bantamweight belt-holder Sean O’Malley will defend his title against Merab Dvalishvili.

The T-Mobile card on Prime Video comes with a suggested list price of $89.99 for U.S. buyers without a Prime Video account. That tab has been widely assailed as a rip-off. “It’s gouging fight fans, plain and simple,” says Kevin Iole who covered both boxing and MMA for Yahoo. (For the record, the UFC show on ESPN+ comes with a list price of $79.99, $10 cheaper if bundled with an ESPN+ subscription. The UFC folks are holding their breath that the event can be translated to the small screen without compromising the clarity of the picture. The logistics are daunting.)

The main bouts on the UFC card will be far more competitive based on the prevailing odds, but when it comes to combat sports, this reporter is a traditionalist. Agreed, that can be interpreted as an old fuddy-duddy stuck in his ways, but in my eyes boxing, a sport that rests on a far more arresting historic foundation, trumps the Johnny-come-lately that is the UFC.

Check back later this week as TSS West Coast Bureau Chief David A. Avila offers up a closer look at Alvarez vs Berlanga and some of the supporting bouts.

Niyomtrong Proves a Bridge Too Far for Alex Winwood in Australia

Published

on

Niyomtrong-Proves-a-Bridge-Too-Far-for-Alex-Winwood-in-Australia

Today in Perth, Australia, Alex Winwood stepped up in class in his fifth pro fight with the aim of becoming the fastest world title-holder in Australian boxing history. But Winwood (4-0, 2 KOs heading in) wasn’t ready for WBA strawweight champion Thammanoon Niyomtrong, aka Knockout CP Freshmart, who by some accounts is the longest reigning champion in the sport.

Niyomtrong (25-0, 9 KOs) prevailed by a slim margin to retain his title. “At least the right guy won,” said prominent Australian boxing writer Anthony Cocks who thought the scores (114-112, 114-112, 113-113) gave the hometown fighter all the best of it.

Winwood, who represented Australia in the Tokyo Olympics, trained for the match in Thailand (as do many foreign boxers in his weight class). He is trained by Angelo Hyder who also worked with Danny Green and the Moloney twins. Had he prevailed, he would have broken the record of Australian boxing icon Jeff Fenech who won a world title in his seventh pro fight. A member of the Noongar tribe, Winwood, 27, also hoped to etch on his name on the list of notable Australian aboriginal boxers alongside Dave Sands, Lionel Rose and the Mundines, Tony and Anthony, father and son.

What Winwood, 27, hoped to capitalize on was Niyomtrong’s theoretical ring rust. The Thai was making his first start since July 20 of 2022 when he won a comfortable decision over Wanheng Menayothin in one of the most ballyhooed domestic showdowns in Thai boxing history. But the Noongar needed more edges than that to overcome the Thai who won his first major title in his ninth pro fight with a hard-fought decision over Nicaragua’s Carlos Buitrago who was 27-0-1 heading in.

A former Muai Thai champion, Niyomtrong/Freshmart turns 34 later this month, an advanced age for a boxer in the sport’s smallest weight class. Although he remains undefeated, he may have passed his prime. How good was he in his heyday? Prominent boxing historian Matt McGrain has written that he was the most accomplished strawweight in the world in the decade 2010-2019: “It is not close, it is not debatable, there is no argument.”

Against the intrepid Winwood, Niyomtrong started slowly. In round seven, he cranked up the juice, putting the local fighter down hard with a left hook. He added another knockdown in round nine. The game Winwood stayed the course, but was well-beaten at the finish, no matter that the scorecards suggested otherwise, creating the impression of a very close fight.

P.S. – Because boxrec refused to name this a title fight, it fell under the radar screen until the result was made known. In case you hadn’t noticed, boxrec is at loggerheads with the World Boxing Association and has decided to “de-certify” the oldest of the world sanctioning bodies. While this reporter would be happy to see the WBA disappear – it is clearly the most corrupt of the four major organizations – the view from here is that boxrec is being petty. Moreover, if this practice continues, it will be much harder for boxing historians of future generations to sort through the rubble.

Avila Perspective, Chap. 295: Callum Walsh, Pechanga Casino Fights and More

Published

on

Avila-Perspective-Chap-295-Callum-Walsh-Pechanga-Casino-Fights-and-More

Super welterweight contender Callum Walsh worked out for reporters and videographers at the Wild Card Gym in Hollywood, Calif. on Thursday,

The native of Ireland Walsh (11-0, 9 KOs) has a fight date against Poland’s Przemyslaw Runowski (22-2-1, 6 KOs) on Friday, Sept. 20 at the city of Dublin. It’s a homecoming for the undefeated southpaw from Cork. UFC Fight Pass will stream the 360 Promotions card.

Mark down the date.

Walsh is the latest prodigy of promoter Tom Loeffler who has a history of developing European boxers in America and propelling them forward on the global boxing scene. Think Gennady “Triple G” Golovkin and you know what I mean.

Golovkin was a middleweight monster for years.

From Kevin Kelley to Oba Carr to Vitaly Klitschko to Serhii Bohachuk and many more in-between, the trail of elite boxers promoted by Loeffler continues to grow. Will Walsh be the newest success?

Add to the mix Dana White, the maestro of UFC, who is also involved with Walsh and you get a clearer picture of what the Irish lad brings to the table.

Walsh has speed, power and a glint of meanness that champions need to navigate the prizefighting world. He also has one of the best trainers in the world in Freddie Roach who needs no further introduction.

Perhaps the final measure of Walsh will be when he’s been tested with the most important challenge of all:

Can he take a punch from a big hitter?

That’s the final challenge

It always comes down to the chin. It’s what separates the Golovkins from the rest of the pack. At the top of the food chain they all can hit, have incredible speed and skill, but the fighters with the rock hard chins are those that prevail.

So far, the chin test is the only examination remaining for Walsh.

“King’ Callum Walsh is ready for his Irish homecoming and promises some fireworks for the Irish fans. This will be an entertaining show for the fans and we are excited to bring world class boxing back to the 3Arena in Dublin,” said Loeffler.

Pechanga Fights

MarvNation Promotions presents a battle between welterweight contenders Jose “Chon” Zepeda (37-5, 28 KOs) and Ivan Redkach (24-7-1, 19 KOs) on Friday, Sept. 6, at Pechanga Resort and Casino in Temecula. DAZN will stream the fight card.

Both have fought many of the best welterweights in the world and now face each other. It should be an interesting clash between the veterans.

Also on the card, featherweights Nathan Rodriguez (15-0) and Bryan Mercado (11-5-1) meet in an eight-round fight.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. First bout at 7 p.m.

Monster Inoue

Once again Japan’s Naoya Inoue dispatched another super bantamweight contender with ease as TJ Doheny was unable to continue in the seventh round after battered by a combination on Tuesday in Tokyo.

Inoue continues to brush away whoever is placed in front of him like a glint of dust.

Is the “Monster” the best fighter pound-for-pound on the planet or is it Terence Crawford? Both are dynamic punchers with skill, speed, power and great chins.

Munguia in Big Bear

Super middleweight contender Jaime Munguia is two weeks away from his match with Erik Bazinyan at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. ESPN will show the Top Rank card.

“Erik Bazinyan is a good fighter. He’s undefeated. He switches stances. We need to be careful with that. He’s taller and has a longer reach than me. He has a good jab. He can punch well on the inside. He’s a fighter who comes with all the desire to excel,” said Munguia.

Bazinyan has victories over Ronald Ellis and Alantez Fox.

In case you didn’t know, Munguia moved over to Top Rank but still has ties with Golden Boy Promotions and Zanfer Promotions. Bazinyan is promoted by Eye of the Tiger.

This is the Tijuana fighter’s first match with Top Rank since losing to Saul “Canelo” Alvarez last May in Las Vegas. He is back with trainer Erik Morales.
