Fight Game Ripe for Big Changes

Published

on

Let’s call it for now the Steve Ballmer effect on pro sports, but there are reasons to believe that the fight game is a hot iron for the right hammer in the aftermath of Ballmer’s $2 billion bid to purchase the NBA’s LA Clippers. With the offer, chump change for a guy with a net worth 10 times greater than the bid, the ranks of businesspeople in sports ownership has become ever more exclusive and may lead to some serious speculation and investment in a sport that is currently as organized as the Iraqi armed forces.

Becoming literate in the business side of the fight game can be about as much fun as dissecting a worm, but in a world that like a worm has no head, it offers constant spectacle and drama. The sordid back rooms of boxing’s past which enforced Jim Crow, allowed Mafiosi to fix fights, controlled who fought whom, allowed convicted murderers to promote fights, wrapped fighters hands in plaster and injected them with performance-enhancing drugs have imbued the sweet science a kind of seedy allure that has not been translated well into the HD age of sports.

The time might be finally right for a deep-pocketed investor with savvy and vision to come along and lead the ship into the mainstream.

Just consider some tidbits from boxing’s very recent past:

— Richard Schaefer jumped ship on Golden Boy to dive down into Al Haymon’s mysterious submarine armed to the teeth with undermatched but marketable fighters and with torpedoes set to fire volleys of lawyers back to the surface at a moment’s notice.

— Officials from alphabet sanctioning bodies WBC, WBA and IBF “had a very productive meeting” in Cancun in which they took a first step towards working together. Also, it was reported that they ate some food in the hotel and some of them took lonely short walks on the beach.

— Carl Froch unraveled George Groves in their London rematch in front of 80,000 fans in a soccer, er, football stadium, prompting casual observers to conclude much to the bored chagrin of boxing fans everywhere that the sport was, after all, not dead.

— Eddie Hearn, the 34-year old Brit who promoted the Froch-Groves show, counted his money and looked across the pond, surmising: “Without being disrespectful, a lot of the promoters are quite old and it’s a great opportunity for a young promoter and a young company to come in. There is a big opportunity for us out here [in the USA]. Over the next couple of months we’re going to try and put that in place, talk to broadcasters and get our head around the market, looking at potential fighters as well.”

— The sports’ two biggest draws traditionally, Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, posted PPV numbers about 20% lower than expected for their most recent, highly entertaining fights. Chalk that one up to: 1) the antiquated and expensive PPV distribution problem/existence of Russian internet bootleggers 2) public resentment that the two aren’t fighting each other, and 3) the fact that they’re both past their prime.

— Not a newsy tidbit, but food for thought: Bob Arum, the biggest promoter in boxing , is reputed to have a net worth of $200 million. For those counting at home, that’s one tenth of what the Clippers will be sold for and one hundredth of Ballmer’s net worth.

— Similarly, Floyd Mayweather continues to be the world’s highest earning athlete.

The last two are meant as point-counterpoint arguments. Arum’s wealth, while formidable, is nothing compared to the coffers of others (including Mayweather). If you had a billion dollars kicking around you could make some serious waves. And having a billion dollars kicking around isn’t exactly rare these days, to get onto Forbes magazine’s list of the 400 richest Americans in 1995, you needed $418m. By 2011, it took $1 billion.

ESPN’s Boxcino tournament played out on the network’s Friday Night Fights with mostly unknown fighter competing for a reputed grand prize of around $50,000. Tournaments are an ideal format for recruiting new fans. The fights are all pre-contracted so that winners have to face other winners and the global venues can change to increase visibility.

It would take some maneuvering to navigate the usual obstacles of contracts and networks but what, besides money, is to stop an investor from setting up such a tournament on a larger scale? Ruslan Provodnikov just pocketed $750,000 to Chris Algieri’s $100,000 for a fight in a premium arena televised by a premium network. The combined purse money for the whole card was roughly equal to a fourth line NHL right winger, or the salary of a replacement-level utility infielder.

If such an investor were smart enough to recruit the right boxers to perform in the right venues with the right promotion, the sport could erupt in visibility and popularity, and the financial risk weighed against the potential reward gets more favorable by the day as global wealth expands for the ultra-rich. For less than $20 million dollars, for example, you could pick eight top middleweights to fight in a tournament that paid the eventual victor $5 million (a career purse for every middleweight excluding the new champ Cotto). Who wouldn’t love to see how things could unfold in a months-long tournament throwing in names like Martin Murray, Gennady Golovkin, Peter Quillin, Felix Sturm, etc.

With the right organization and financial backing and given the premium commercial status that live sporting events are afforded these days, a major television network would eventually be chomping at the bit to give the thing a shot in the arm.

The mentality of boxing promotion still feels very much stuck in the corrupt political mire of the 20th century, unable to pick itself back off the mat. Don’t expect it take the full eight seconds of rest before it leaps back into the attack.

International Brotherhood of Prizefighters Rankings: Week of September 24, 2023

 

What’s in a nickname, you ask?  Zhilei “Big Bang” Zhang exhibited shades of the legendary Brown Bomber, Joe Louis; the exception being he conducts business from the port side.  Zhang’s 3rd round stoppage of Joe Joyce sees Joyce exiting the top 10 in the heavyweight division.  Also exiting due to inactivity is Andy Ruiz and Luis Ortiz, who last fought each other on September 4, 2022.  Gaining entries are Daniel Dubois, Dillian White and Derek Chisora, at 8, 9 and 10 respectively.

At 140, Richardson Hitchins earned his asterisk with a one sided decision over Jose Zepada.  Hitchins enters the top 10 in the 7th slot, while Zepeda falls to 8th.  Zhankosh Turarov drops to 9th in the world and immediately underneath him, rounding out the top 10, is Elvis Rodriguez. Scotland’s Josh Taylor gets bumped from the 10th slot.

At 108, World Champion Kenshiro Teraji defended his title with a stoppage of 4th ranked Hekkie Budler in round 9 of a scheduled 12.  Budler drops to 7th, see list for reshuffle.

*Please note that when the fighter’s name appears with an asterisk it represents a movement in ranking from the previous week.

Canelo-Charlo Gets All the Ink, but Don’t Overlook the Compelling Match-up of Gassiev-Wallin in Turkey

Canelo-Charlo Gets All the Ink, but Don’t Overlook the Compelling Match-up of Gassiev-Wallin in Turkey

The eyes of the boxing world will be on Las Vegas this Saturday where Mexican superstar Saul “Canelo” Alvarez risks his four super middleweight title belts against unified 154-pound champion Jermell Charlo. Earlier that day at a luxury resort hotel in the city of Antalya on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey, there’s a heavyweight match sitting under the radar that may prove to be the better fight. It’s an intriguing match-up between former world cruiserweight title-holder Murat Gassiev and Swedish southpaw Otto Wallin, a bout with significant ramifications for boxing’s glamour division.

Gassiev (30-1, 23 KOs) and Wallin (25-1, 14 KOs) have only one loss, but those setbacks came against the top dogs in the division. Gassiev was out-boxed by Oleksandr Usyk back in the days when both were cruiserweights. Wallin gave Tyson Fury a world of trouble before losing a unanimous decision.

Since those fights, both have been treading water.

Gassiev

Gassiev was inactive for 27 months after his match with Usyk while dealing with legal issues and an injury to his left shoulder. He is 4-0 (4 KOs) since returning to the ring while answering the bell for only eight rounds. The only recognizable name among those four victims is German gatekeeper Michael Wallisch. After stopping Wallisch, Gassiev was out of action for another 13 months while reportedly dealing with an arm injury.

A first-round knockout of Carlouse Welch, an obscure 40-something boxer from the U.S. state of Georgia on Aug. 26, 2022, in Belgrade, Serbia, was promoted as a title fight. The sanctioning body was the Eurasian Boxing Parliament (insert your own punchline here). Gassiev followed that up with a second-round knockout of former NFL linebacker Mike Balogun who came in undefeated and was seemingly a legitimate threat to him.

Although he has yet to fight a ranked opponent since leaving the cruiserweight division, Gassiev — a former stablemate of Gennady Golovkin who has been living in Big Bear, California, training under Abel Sanchez – is one of the most respected fighters in the division because he has one-punch knockout power as Balogun and others can well attest. The rub against the Russian-Armenian bruiser is that he is somewhat robotic.

Wallin

Otto Wallin, a 32-year-old southpaw from Sweden who trains in New York under former world lightweight champion Joey Gamache, fought Tyson Fury on Sept. 14, 2019 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. There was a general feeling that the Swede would be a stroll in the park for Fury, but to the contrary, he gave the Gypsy King a hard tussle while losing a unanimous decision.

Wallin is 5-0 since that night beginning with victories over Travis Kauffman (KO 5) and Dominic Breazeale (UD 12), but his last three opponents were softer than soft and all three lasted the distance. In order, Wallin won an 8-round decision over Kamil Sokolowski, who was 11-24-2 heading in, won a 10-round decision over ancient Rydell Booker, and won an 8-round decision over Helaman Olguin. His bout with Utah trial horse Olguin was at a banquet hall in Windham, New Hampshire.

It isn’t that Wallin has been avoiding the top names in the division; it’s the other way around. His promoter Dmitriy Salita reportedly came close to getting Wallin a match with Anthony Joshua whose team had second thoughts about sending Joshua in against another southpaw after back-to-back setbacks to Oleksandr Usyk.

Gassiev vs Wallin is a true crossroads fight. Both are in dire need of a win over a credible opponent. At last look, Gassiev, who figures to have the crowd in his corner, was a 3/1 favorite.

Skavynskyi and Bustillos Win on a MarvNation Card in Long Beach

Skavynskyi and Bustillos Win on a MarvNation Card in Long Beach

LONG BEACH, Ca.-A cool autumn night saw welterweights and minimumweights share main events for a MarvNation fight card on Saturday.

Ukraine’s Eduard Skavynskyi (15-0, 7 KOs) experienced a tangled mess against the awkward Alejandro Frias (14-10-2) but won by decision after eight rounds in a welterweight contest at the indoor furnace called the Thunder Studios.

It was hot in there for the more than 600 people inside.

Skavynskyi probably never fought someone like Mexico’s Frias whose style was the opposite of the Ukrainian’s fundamentally sound one-two style. But round after round the rough edges became more familiar.

Neither fighter was ever damaged but all three judges saw Skavynskyi the winner by unanimous decision 79-73 on all three cards. The Ukrainian fighter trains in Ventura.

Bustillo Wins Rematch

Applerose2

In the female main event Las Vegas’ Yadira Bustillos (8-1) stepped into a rematch with Karen Lindenmuth (5-2) and immediately proved the lessons learned from their first encounter.

Bustillos connected solidly with an overhand right and staggered Lindenmuth but never came close to putting the pressure fighter down. Still, Bustillos kept turning the hard rushing Lindenmuth and snapping her head with overhand rights and check left hooks.

Lindenmuth usually overwhelms most opponents with a smothering attack that causes panic. But not against Bustillos who seemed quite comfortable all eight rounds in slipping blows and countering back.

After eight rounds all three judges scored the contest for Bustillos 78-74 and 80-72 twice. Body shots were especially effective for the Las Vegas fighter in the fifth round. Bustillos competes in the same division as IBF/WBO title-holder Yokasta Valle.

Other Bouts

In a middleweight clash, undefeated Victorville’s Andrew Buchanan (3-0-1) used effective combination punching to defeat Mexico’s Fredy Vargas (2-1-1) after six rounds. Two judges scored it 59-55 and a third 60-54 for Buchanan. No knockdowns were scored.

A super lightweight match saw Sergio Aldana win his pro debut by decision after four rounds versus Gerardo Fuentes (2-9-1).
