Avila Perspective, Chap. 102: Networks Rumble

Published

Avila-Perspective-Chap-102-Networks-Rumble

A battle of the networks erupts on Saturday with multiple boxing cards shoving each other for attention.

It starts early.

Ireland’s Katie Taylor (15-0) faces Belgium’s Delfine Persoon (44-2) in a rematch on Saturday morning from London, England. DAZN will stream this high volatile rematch between fierce lightweights. The co-main features heavyweights Dillian Whyte and Alexander Povetkin. It all begins at 11 a.m.

Plenty of other sports will take place, but Saturday is the night for fighting, not basketball, baseball or soccer.

Let’s take the Taylor-Persoon rematch. Their first encounter took place at Madison Square Garden on the same card as the upset of Anthony Joshua by Andy Ruiz. Fans from the British Isles arrived in droves and expected to celebrate victories by their champions Taylor and Joshua.

It did not happen.

Instead, Joshua was knocked out by Ruiz and Taylor nearly lost her fight against Persoon. Many felt the Irish fighter did lose, but in the end, Taylor emerged the winner by majority decision.

That near-loss has irked Taylor for 14 months.

“This is a legacy-building fight for me and Delfine. We’re both in this sport to prove that we are the best,” said Taylor. “You have two fighters here that absolutely believe that they are going to win. We both think we’re going to win. That’s what makes this such a fantastic fight.”

A lot of questions will be answered when Persoon and Taylor meet again this weekend. First, Persoon has never had PED testing results by VADA released. Was she juiced when she fought Taylor the first time? Is that how she was so tireless in her pursuit for 10 furious rounds?

Also, can Taylor adjust to Persoon’s hyper-aggressive style?

Persoon does not think so.

“We will see who is the best fighter. We didn’t think (Taylor would grant a rematch). We were very surprised Katie is taking this risk. For her, it is a big risk. If she loses, it isn’t good for her career,” said Persoon adding that Taylor grabs and holds too much. “I must not give her time to hold me. Don’t give her the time.”

Heavyweights

Getting back to the Matchroom Boxing card, Whyte (27-1, 18 KOs) has a very capable foe in Povetkin (35-2-1) in this heavyweight match that serves as a litmus test.

Dillian Whyte has rebuilt his reputation and has fans clamoring for another shot at Joshua or maybe even a challenge against Tyson Fury. It’s been nearly five years since he was knocked out by Joshua.

“I’m fighting a consummate professional so I’m not bothered about Tyson Fury. I’m bothered about Povetkin. Povetkin is the most technical fighter I’ve fought. He has beaten a lot of top guys. He’s an Olympic gold medalist. He’s only lost two fights. When the bell goes it doesn’t matter if there’s 100,000 people there or 100 people. You are zoned in,” said Whyte.

Povetkin has only lost to Wladimir Klitschko by decision in 2013 and Joshua by knockout in 2018. The Russian has slowed but his experience is way up there.

“Thanks to Dillian also for taking this fight. Hopefully, it will be a great fight in the heavyweight division. I have taken responsibility to train for this fight, understanding how serious it is,” said Povetkin. “You have to take Dillian seriously. I don’t like to make predictions – but it will be fireworks.”

Light heavyweights on ESPN+

Former light heavyweight world champion Eleider Alvarez and heavy-hitting contender Joe Smith Jr. lead a Top Rank card from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas Bubble that begins at 4:30 p.m. PT on Saturday.

Alvarez (25-1, 13 KOs) is known best for his knockout win over Sergey Kovalev several years back and whenever he’s in the ring it’s not over till its over.

“I want to be champion of the world for a second time. Whether it’s by knockout or decision, I know Joe Smith comes to fight. I’m going to do the best I can to win this because I want to be champion of the world for a second time,” Alvarez said.

Smith (25-3, 20 KOs) is known as the fighter that gave boxing great Bernard Hopkins his last loss with a knockout that sent the Hall of Fame fighter through the ropes. It was a scary ending but that’s the type of power possessed by the fighter from Long Island, New York.

“Being the underdog, I always feel like I have something to prove. I don’t mind it. I like getting in there and proving the world that I belong at the top and should be a champion,” Smith said.

Another interesting bout features former middleweight titlist Rob Brant (25-2, 17 KOs) facing Vitaly Kopylenko (28-2, 16 KOs) of Ukraine. It’s Brant’s first return to the ring since losing in Osaka, Japan to Ryoto Murata a year ago. Kopylenko is also coming off a loss by decision to Steven Butler by decision. It’s sink or swim time for both.

Welterweights on FOX

Shawn “Showtime” Porter (30-3-1, 17 KOs) finally returns to the ring and faces Germany’s Sebastian Formella (22-0, 10 KOs) in a title elimination bout for the welterweight world title. The former world champion is among the first of the elite fighters to step back in the prize ring. FOX will televise the PBC card on Saturday Aug. 22, at 5 p.m. PT.

“I wanted to take on the responsibility of bringing big-time boxing back. I’m one of the first big names to come back and I’m proud to represent my team and my family by getting back in the ring sooner than later,” said Porter, 32.

Few fighters excite fight fans like Porter who’s a pit bull inside the prize ring. His fight a year ago against Errol Spence Jr. lit up the Staples Center in Los Angeles. His clash with Danny “Swift” Garcia was equally exciting. In fact, Porter rarely gives bad fights.

If you ever wondered how the great Henry Armstrong fought, just take a look at any of Porter’s fights. He’s the 21st century Henry Armstrong.

Formella, 33, is one of the few fighters Porter has ever faced that he can look directly eye to eye. Both are short for welterweights. But the German fighter has never lost and has some decent wins on his record.

Also, on the PBC fight card will be super welterweights Nathaniel Gallimore (21-4-1, 17 KOs) meeting Sebastian Fundora (14-0-1, 9 KOs) who is one of the tallest Latino fighters I’ve ever seen at 154 pounds. It’s a very interesting pairing. Gallimore is not short but he’s giving up six inches in height to Fundora, a southpaw out of Coachella, California.

Avila Perspective, Chap. 297: Callum Walsh in Dublin, Anthony Joshua and More

Avila Perspective, Chap. 297: Callum Walsh in Dublin, Anthony Joshua and More

All eyes point toward the British Isles this weekend and the American wild west.

In back-to-back days, several of that European region’s best pugilists headline cards in Dublin then in London.

It all begins with super welterweight contender Callum Walsh, the Irish fighter from Cork who trains in Hollywood, Calif. with one of the masters, Freddie Roach.

On Friday, Sept. 20, Walsh (11-0, 9 KOs) meets Poland’s Przemyslaw Runowski (22-2-1, 6 KOs) at 3Arena Dublin in Dublin, Ireland for a regional super welterweight title. UFC Fight Pass will stream the 360 Promotions card at 9:30 a.m. Pacific Time.

Straight from the sweaty gyms of Hollywood, Ireland’s Walsh (pictured on the left) returns home to native soil where he intends to showcase the ever-growing skills learned from Southern California’s hotbed of pro boxing.

On any given day a number of veteran fighters can be found to spar and learn.

Walsh, also known as King Callum, has been one of many Irish fighters who uprooted themselves from the comforts of home and moved to Southern California to find a myriad of styles from boxers coming from all parts of the world.

The hard-charging Walsh finally returns to perform in the heart of Ireland. His speed, power and skills have enabled him to eliminate nine of 11 opponents via knockout.

Dana White, his manager, will be attending the fight.

“Love the fact that he’s not fighting guys to pad his record, like the typical boxing model. This is a kid who really believes in himself and his potential to become a world champion,” said White the president of the UFC organization. “I also love the fact that one of the greatest trainers in the history of the sport, Freddie Roach, believes in him. I am very invested in this fight in Dublin and I’m really excited to not only bring a fight back to Ireland but to be sitting ringside to see Callum fight in his home country.”

Poland’s Runowski has never been stopped and has a string of victories against top competition. This match will prove who moves on toward elite competition.

Saturday in London

In London, England on Saturday, top heavyweights Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois lead an impressive Matchroom Boxing fight card at Wembley Stadium. DAZN will stream the card.

Joshua (28-3, 25 KOs) and Dubois (21-2, 20 KOs) fight for the IBF heavyweight title. Both have recently looked in peak form. Look for a stoppage in this fight between knockout experts.

Dubois only lost to Okesandr Usyk and should have been ruled the winner when he floored the champion with a body shot a year ago. The referee erroneously ruled it a low blow. The titles should have been given to Dubois at that moment. Instead, Usyk rallied and stopped the British fighter in the ninth.

Since that loss, Dubois knocked out Jarrell Miller and Filip Hrgovic.

Former champion Joshua has never looked better and recently destroyed MMA star Francis Ngannou who gave Tyson Fury fits when they fought. Not so against Joshua who mercilessly blew him out in two rounds.

Also featured on the card are Hamzah Sheeraz, who recently defeated Ammo Williams via knockout plus Josh Warrington, Josh Kelly and undefeated Joshua Buatsi. It’s a front-loaded boxing card.

Wild West USA

Mexico’s former champion Jaime Munguia (43-1, 34 KOs) makes his debut on a Top Rank card against undefeated Armenian super middleweight Erik Bazinyan (32-0-1, 23 KOs) on Friday Sept. 20, at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. ESPN will televise the Top Rank card.

It’s Munguia’s first fight since losing to boxing kingpin Saul “Canelo” Alvarez. No shame in that. But he is facing another Canadian prospect who has never lost. Recently, that country has been developing some very good pugilists like another super middleweight Christian Mbilli.

The Top Rank card is loaded with highly-regarded prospects such as Richard Torrez Jr., Emiliano Vargas, Alan “Kid Kansas” Garcia and others.

LA Area

A half dozen undefeated fighters including Daniel Cruz (7-0) against Recky Dulay (11-9) meet on Friday Sept. 20, for KO Fight Night at Farallon Event Center in Lynwood, Calif.

Among the undefeated fighters on the House of Pain fight card are Mathias Radcliffe, DeAngelo Evans, Luis Rubalvaca, and Jose Casillas.

Doors open at 6 p.m.

Fights to Watch  (all times Pacific Time)

Fri. UFC Fight Pass 9:30 a.m. Callum Walsh (11-0) vs Przemyslaw Runowski (22-2-1)

Fri. ESPN 7:30 p.m. Jaime Munguia (43-1) vs Erik Bazinyan (32-0-1).

Mikaelian vs Rozicki POSTPONED Amidst Rumors that Promoter Don King is Ailing

Mikaelian-vs-Rozicki-Postponed-Amidst-Rumors-that Promoter-Don-King-is-Ailing

The WBC world cruiserweight title fight between Ryan Rozicki and Noel Mikaelian, slated for Sept. 28 at Miami Casino Jai Alai in Miami, Florida has been postponed. A terse press release attributed to Don King Promotions, Three Lion Promotions (Rozicki’s promoter) and the WBC was issued today. No reason was given for the postponement. It merely said, “we are working diligently to set a new date and should have a new date to announce in the days to come.”

An Armenian who has done most of his fighting in Germany and now lives and trains in Miami, Mikaelian (aka Noel Gevor) sports a 27-2 (12 KOs) record and would be making the first defense of the title he won with a third-round stoppage of Ilunga Makabu on a Don King card in Miami in November of last year. Canada’s Rozicki (20-1, 19 KOs) suffered his lone defeat at the hands of Oscar Rivas in October of 2021. That match, which went the full 12 rounds, is recognized by the WBC as the first Bridgerweight title fight. Plagued with chronic eye problems, Rivas would never fight again.

This is the second time that the Mikaelian-Rozicki match has been postponed. They were originally scheduled to fight on June 7 at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino and Resort in Hollywood, Florida, but Mikaelian (pictured on the left) suffered an eye injury just days before the fight and the match evaporated. Mikaelian’s injury bumped the welterweight contest between Blair Cobbs and Adrien Broner into the main event. Cobbs won a 10-round unanimous decision.

The news of this second postponement spawned talk in online chat rooms to the effect that Don King had fallen seriously ill. According to one private correspondence shared with this reporter this morning at a local boxing gym, King had suffered a near-death experience and would be stepping away from boxing for one year.

This allegation could not be substantiated. More than that, reliable sources say it should be dismissed as an UNFOUNDED rumor. Considering all the misinformation on social media, perhaps I was remiss in not keeping it under my hat.

At one time the most powerful boxing promoter in the world, Don King turned 93 last month.

Reflections on Yoenli Hernandez and the New Wave of Outstanding Cuban Boxers

Reflections on Yoenli Hernandez and the New Wave of Outstanding Cuban Boxers

Cuban boxers were 2-0 at the T-Mobile Arena on Mexican Independence Day weekend in Las Vegas. Erislandy Lara toyed with listless Danny Garcia for nine rounds before Garcia’s corner stopped the bout. Yoenli Hernandez improved to 5-0 with his fifth knockout, dismissing his Mexican opponent in the second round.

Lara, who was appearing his nineteenth 12-round fight, is 41 years old. Yoenli Hernandez (pictured) is 27. However, although separated by only 14 years, they effectively represent two different generations of Cuban boxers. Hernandez is part of the new wave that includes super-hot prospects Arlen Lopez and Andy Cruz.

A light heavyweight, Lopez, 31, was an Olympic gold medalist in Rio and in Tokyo, but came up short in his bid to become only the fourth boxer (and third Cuban) to achieve the Olympic hat trick, losing a split decision to Ukraine’s Oleksandr Khyzhniak in the semi-final round of the recent Paris Games. As a pro, he’s 3-0 (2 KOs).

A lightweight, Andy Cruz, 29, was 4-for-4 against Keyshawn Davis as an amateur, with the last of those four wins coming in the gold medal round of the Tokyo Olympiad. He’s 4-0 (2 KOs) as a pro with all four of those wins coming against experienced opponents in matches slated for 10 rounds.

Yoenli Hernandez (sometimes identified as Yoenlis Feliciano) wasn’t an Olympian, but he was a World Amateur Champion who finished his amateur career with 26 straight wins. He turned pro along with Arlen Lopez and four other elite Cuban amateurs on May 20, 2022 in Aguascalientes, Mexico, an historic day in the history of Cuban boxing as it was the first time that members of the Cuban National Team competed as pros with the blessing of the Cuban government.

Cuba has spawned a number of notable boxers over the years. Kid Gavilan, the Cuban Hawk, master of the bolo punch, won the world welterweight title in 1951 with a unanimous decision over Johnny Bratton at Madison Square Garden and successfully defended it seven times. By some accounts, he was Cuba’s first true world title-holder. Kid Chocolate (Eligio Sardinas) captured world titles as a featherweight and a junior lightweight in the early 1930’s, but neither title was recognized overseas — the junior lightweight division then lacked traction and his featherweight diadem was the New York State version of it.

Kid Gavilan and Kid Chocolate have plaques in the International Boxing Hall of Fame as does Luis Rodriguez who captured the world welterweight title at LA’s Dodger Stadium in 1963 in his second of four meetings with arch-rival Emile Griffith. Rodriguez and his compatriot Florentino Fernandez, a world title challenger as a middleweight, both had their first U.S. fights in 1959, the year that Fidel Castro’s rebels  overthrew the Batista regime. They trained at Chris Dundee’s iconic Miami Beach gym alongside the fighter who would take the name Muhammad Ali.

Two future greats — featherweight Ultiminio “Sugar” Ramos and welterweight Jose “Mantequilla” Napoles — left Cuba a bit later and settled in Mexico. Although they won world titles in U.S. rings, they never left their adopted home. Both were residents of Mexico City at the time of their passing.

As is well known, Fidel Castro abolished professional sports. Moreover, there was a long lag after he came to power before elite Cuban boxers had the temerity to defect.

Cuban boxers dominated the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, sending nine of a possible 12 boxers to the gold medal round, seven of whom emerged victorious. Of the medal winners, only bantamweight Joel Casamayor left for the United States, and he did not defect until four years later on the eve of the Atlanta Summer Games. Eventually 12 other Cuban boxers – several who arrived in the U.S. before him — would join Casamayor in a stable that took the name Team Freedom. Casamayor was the best of the bunch, winning world titles as a pro at 130 and 135 pounds.

Team Freedom evolved into Warriors Boxing. The South Florida agency, run by Luis De Cubas Sr. and Leon Margules, is the dominant force in the Cuban-American boxing community. De Cubas, who once owned a piece of Roberto Duran, was born in Cuba and spent his formative years in Minnesota before settling in Miami at age 24. His business partner Margules is a Fort Lauderdale attorney.

Yoenli Hernandez’s manager of record is Providence, Rhode Island businessman Robert Valle, but Warriors Boxing, which also controls WBA (regular) light heavyweight champion David Morrell, has its fingers in the pie. Virtually every boxer who defected from Cuba during the Castro years was helped along the way by Luis De Cubas and his associates. His name now appears on the ballot for the International Boxing Hall of Fame and it’s a fair guess that he will go in with the next class of inductees.

In many ways, things have gotten worse in Cuba since Fidel Castro passed away in 2016. More than a million Cubans – roughly 10 percent of the population – left the island nation between 2022 and 2023, the largest wave of out-migration in Cuba’s history. Of that number, more than 400,000 settled in the Unites States, mostly in the Miami area.

Within that diaspora were many of Cuba’s most talented boxers. Those that leave for greener pastures are no longer stamped an enemy of the state. Restrictions have been eased for people traveling back and forth between the two countries.

Cuban boxers were well-represented on the rosters of the teams in the newfangled Team Combat League where men compete in one-round matches across six weight categories. One doesn’t have to like the concept to appreciate the fact that the TCL has been a godsend to boxers who would otherwise have trouble staying busy while also putting a few dollars in their pocket to help pay the bills during the lacuna between conventional prizefights.

The novice professionals from Cuba who have competed in these events tend to be younger than their predecessors who left Cuba to launch their pro careers. To take but two examples, light heavyweight Brayon Leon and welterweight Darian Castro, both strong prospects who excelled at the TCL brand of fisticuffing (a combined 22-2) are 22 and 21 years old respectively.

The takeaway is that we will be hearing a lot more about Cuban boxers in the next few years. And if Yoenli Hernandez becomes a big name in the sport, remember that you heard it here first.
