Boxing Odds and Ends: Notes on Canelo-Plant, Probellum, and Adrien Broner

On Nov. 6, Canelo Alvarez, boxing biggest attraction, opposes Caleb Plant at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. The winner will become the first undisputed super middleweight champion in the four-belt era.

It’s a fair guess that the fight is already a sellout. By this, I mean that it appears that the scalpers are holding all the remaining tickets. Stub Hub, the leader in the industry, has tickets available at prices ranging from $938 to $25,000.

An alternative to fans who won’t cough up the heavy tariff but want to be close to the action is to attend the closed-circuit viewing at the Park MGM Theater. Tickets at this venue went on sale today at a flat rate of $125. The 5,200-seat theater sits across the street from the MGM Grand steps away from T-Mobile Arena.

The fight will air on Showtime pay-per-view at a price that hasn’t yet been announced. While the undefeated Plant (21-0, 12 KOs) isn’t lacking for confidence, the linemakers don’t like his chances. Canelo is a consensus 10/1 favorite with the buy-back on the underdog available at +650.

In Alvarez (56-1-2, 38 KOs), Plant is meeting a 16-year-pro who is still only 31 years old and shows no signs of slowing down. The Guadalajara redhead has defeated a profusion of world class opponents, five of whom – Austin Trout, Liam Smith, Gennadiy Golovkin, Callum Smith, and Billy Joe Saunders – were undefeated when he fought them. Plant, by contrast, has been matched very carefully since upending Jose Uzcategui to win the IBF belt. He was thrust against Mike Lee (TKO 3), Vincent Feigenbutz (TKO 10), and Caleb Truax (UD 12)– hardly a murderers’ row.

Probellum

Probellum, the new company founded by former Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer, is on quite a shopping binge. Among its latest signees are Nonito Donaire and Darius Fulgham.

Donaire, who turns 39 next month, is a shoo-in for the International Boxing Hall of Fame. Born in the same town in the Philippines as Manny Pacquiao, he has held world titles in four weight classes. In his last outing, in May of this year, he began a second reign as a world bantamweight champion with a fourth-round stoppage of favored Nordine Oubaali of France.

Schaefer and Donaire are well-acquainted. Donaire participated in the 2019 World Boxing Super Series bantamweight tournament, a Richard Schaefer brainchild. He advanced to the finals where he lost a narrow decision to Naoya Inoue in Saitama, Japan. The bout was a doozy. TSS and other publications named it the Fight of the Year.

Donaire has been pursuing a rematch and believes that Schaefer can make it happen.

Darius Fulgham joins Schaefer’s firm straight from the amateur ranks, a first for Probellum. At the 2020 U.S. Olympic trials, held in December of 2019 in Lake Charles, Louisiana, Fulgham won the 201-pound competition as the 8-seed. He did not get to the Olympics, which were pushed back a year, failing to overcome other hurdles.

Fulgham, 25, hails from tiny Rosharon, Texas, and trains in Houston. He graduated from Prairie View A & M last year with a degree in nursing.

Probellum previously announced the signings of Regis Prograis, Badou Jack, Eimantas Stanionis, Eduardo Hernandez, Ricky Burns, and Brandon Moore, the latter a six-foot-six, 230-pound heavyweight from Florida who has been fighting off the grid in places like Monterrey, Mexico, building his record to 10-0 (6). According to a company press release, Probellum has co-promotional agreements in place with promoters in Germany, Spain, Latvia, New Zealand, Australia, Indonesia, Ghana, and the Dominican Republic.

Adrien Broner

Boxing’s preeminent knucklehead Adrien Broner has found himself in trouble again. Broner, 32, was arrested late Sunday night in Covington, Kentucky, on a fugitive warrant related to a June 2018 incident at a Cleveland nightclub where he pinned a 35-year-old woman he did not know to a couch and forcibly kissed her. According to the woman’s lawyer, she suffered from post-traumatic stress syndrome as a result of the assault and spent a year in intensive therapy.

Broner was charged with gross sexual imposition. In court, the fighter did not contest the charge against him. Judge Nancy Margaret Russo ordered him to pay the woman an amount that with attorneys’ fees totaled almost $830,000 and she also put him on probation for two years.

Broner violated the terms of his probation when he was arrested in Miami in March of 2020 on a drunken-driving charge. In August he was ordered to serve seven days in jail and to begin a treatment program upon his release. His failure to begin the program purportedly sparked the warrant for his arrest. By all accounts, the financial judgment against him ordered by Judge Russo remains unpaid.

A father of five (according to Wikipedia), Broner has repeatedly been in trouble with the authorities in his hometown of Cincinnati and elsewhere. He last fought in February of this year, winning a 12-round unanimous decision over unheralded Jovanie Santiago on a PBC show at the Mogehan Sun Casino in Connecticut. His record currently stands at 34-4-1 (24).

The Follies of Gervonta Davis: They Gave Him the Key to the City and Now He’s in the Slammer

Published

on

Gervonta's-Follies-They-Gave-Him-the-Key-to-the-City-and-Now-He's-in-the-Slammer

One surmises that Baltimore City Circuit Court judge Althea Handy has a lot of guts. When the 65-year-old jurist rescinded her decision to allow Gervonta “Tank” Davis to serve his 90-day sentence at the home of his trainer Calvin Ford and remanded him to the jailhouse, that undoubtedly didn’t sit well with some of the poobahs in Maryland’s largest city. After all, it wasn’t that long ago that Davis was presented with a key to the city and a parade was held in his honor.

Davis appeared before Judge Handy on May 5. He had already pleaded guilty to each of four counts stemming from a hit-and-run accident that happened shortly before 2 a.m. on the morning of Nov. 5, 2020. After running a red light, Davis crashed his Lamborghini into another vehicle before crashing into the fence of a 7-eleven. The four occupants of the other vehicle, including a pregnant woman, required medical attention. Gervonta and his two passengers fled the scene in another car.

The four charges to which he pled guilty, eschewing a jury trial, included driving on a revoked license. Had Judge Handy thrown the book at him, she could have packed him off to prison for a term of four years and two months. Instead, she sentenced him to 90 days home detention, three years’ probation, and 200 hours of community service.

Davis owns a home in tony Broward County in South Florida. If it had been his decision, that’s where he would have served his 90 days. But Handy had visions of the boxer lounging by the pool and wouldn’t allow it. She insisted that he serve out his sentence in his native Baltimore.

Althea Handy

It was agreed that Davis would be confined to the home of his longtime coach Calvin Ford for the duration of his sentence. The head trainer at the Upton Boxing Center in impoverished West Baltimore and the inspiration for the Dennis “Cutty” Wise character in the HBO series “The Wire,” Coach Calvin, as he is called, has been a father figure to Gervonta Davis and countless other boys. Gervonta was living with his grandmother after bouncing around between foster homes when he wandered into Upton at the age of seven. The boxer credits his coach with instilling within him the discipline needed to stay off the streets.

There was one small problem. Calvin Ford’s home had only one bedroom. It was far too small for the boxer and his entourage.

Davis needed to find a new crash pad. Being the resourceful type, he moved his tack to Baltimore’s luxurious Four Seasons Hotel before plunking down a reported $3.4 million on a 5,000-square-foot high-rise penthouse. When informed that the boxer had taken it upon himself to recalibrate his “punishment,” Judge Handy said, “not on my watch” or words to this effect, and had the boxer hauled off to the slammer.

Gervonta Davis was boxing’s youngest American-born world champion when he won his first title in 2017. On July 24, 2019, three days before his homecoming fight with Ricardo Nunez – his fifth 130-pound world title defense – he was presented the keys to the city by then mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young in a ceremony at City Hall. “Welcome Home….We’re so proud of you!”, read the proclamation. Later that year, on Oct. 26, the boxer was feted with a parade in his old neighborhood.

In his most recent bout, a non-title affair contested at the catch-weight of 136 pounds, Davis stopped Ryan Garcia in the seventh round to advance his record to 29-0. The fight played out before an SRO crowd of 20,000-plus at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. In his four fights prior to that, Davis drew capacity or near-capacity crowds to NBA arenas in Atlanta, Los Angeles, Brooklyn, and Washington, DC. When it comes to putting asses in seats, no other American boxer can match him.

—-

Davis turned pro under Floyd Mayweather Jr’s “Money Team” banner. As recounted in a previous story, Mayweather’s influence was pervasive. Gervonta came to mimicking Floyd’s lifestyle, reflected in what normal people would see as reckless spending, manifested in bling and in his growing collection of rare and expensive automobiles. The parallels are striking and to that list we can now add one more. When Gervonta emerges from his current abode he will have spent almost exactly as many days behind bars as his former promoter. Mayweather was sentenced to 90 days for domestic battery in 2012 and with time off for good behavior was out of jail in two months.

When Davis gets out, will his boxing tools be as sharp as ever? Based on Mayweather’s experience, his fans have nothing to worry about.

During Mayweather’s incarceration, his lawyer and personal physician submitted a document to the court in hopes of securing an early release. “Jail food and water,” it said, “didn’t meet Mayweather’s dietary needs and lack of exercise space in a cramped cell of fewer than 98 square feet threatened his health and fitness.”

Not to worry. Floyd had some of his best moments after he was set free, although it may be worth noting that he stopped knocking people out.

Floyd was 35 years old when he regained his freedom. Gervonta Davis will be 28. There’s no reason to think that he won’t be as good as ever, but that’s assuming that he keeps his nose clean. He doesn’t need any more of these kinds of distractions.

Claressa Shields Defeats Maricela Cornejo in Detroit

Published

Claressa-Shields-Defeats-Maricela-Cornejo-in-Detroit

In front of a Detroit crowd familiar with boxing legends, Claressa Shields demonstrated her place among the legends with a start-to-finish win over number one contender Maricela Cornejo to retain her middleweight world championship on Saturday.

“Maricela is just super tough. She was just in shape and knew how to get away from shots,” said Shields

More than 10,000 fans entered Little Caesars Arena and witnessed the fight.

Despite last-minute changes in opposition, Shields (14-0, 2 KOs) accepted always strong Cornejo (16-6, 6 KOs) and proved that former Detroit boxing legends such as Sugar Ray Robinson, Joe Louis and Tommy Hearns need to move over.

The champion wasted little time in opening-up with looping overhand rights that barely missed the mark. Cornejo was careful to avoid the bombs. Though few punches landed it was clear that Shields was on the attack.

Cornejo was scheduled to fight another foe and had been preparing in Las Vegas with famed trainer Ismael Salas. She was fully prepared to face anyone, but Shields is not anyone. Her defense was on point but the speed ratio of Shields punches is almost impossible to practice.

Still, Cornejo did enough by connecting with a strong right cross that kept Shields from overwhelming her.

“Just stay smart and not get hit with her big right hand,” said Shields about her battle plan against Cornejo who replaced Hanna Gabriels who failed a PED test.

Though Cornejo had two inches height advantage, Shields had faced others that were taller before such as Christina Hammer and Savannah Marshall. Shields adjusted well.

“Height don’t matter, power don’t matter,” Shields said. “It’s all about skills and wills and I always have more.”

Over the years Shields has carefully added more ammunition to her offensive arsenal and fighting a taller opponent with power has become second nature. Shields kept a perfect distance at all times and made it difficult for Cornejo to time her attacks with a big right cross.

Cornejo jabbed her way trying to close the distance, but Shields agility and reflexes kept the taller fighter from her goal. Shields snapped Cornejo’s head back numerous times during the fight, but the Mexican-American fighter from the state of Washington has always shown to have one of the best chins in women’s boxing. No one has ever knocked her down.

Shields came close, especially in the seventh round. Cornejo opened the frame with a strong right lead that seemed to awaken the gates. Shields unleashed the blinding combinations that have bewildered every foe she’s ever faced since childhood. The speed and fury of the blows forced Cornejo to hold and maneuver out of range. She survived the onslaught but if it had been a three-minute round the fight might have been over. Instead, after the two-minute round expired, Cornejo had survived.

Shields had expended a lot of energy attempting the knockout. It takes a lot of to fire off dozens of blows with blinding speed and accuracy. Most of the eighth round was fought by both at a much slower tempo, until the last 20 seconds when Shields and Cornejo opened up the guns.

After saving energy in the prior round, Shields stunned Cornejo with a strong one-two that snapped the head of the challenger. Shields kept on the attack but in measured tones. Though she won every round it was evident that Cornejo was looking for one big counter shot that could turn the momentum.

It did not happen. Shields kept control of the fight until the very end. After 10 rounds both hugged each other in respect and the judges gave their verdict 100-89, 100-90 twice for Shields who keeps the middleweight world championship.

“I felt great. I won every round like I knew I could,” said Shields. “I tried for the KO, but Maricela was tough, had a strong right hand.”

For Shields it was her sixth defense of the middleweight championship.

“I thought I looked really, really good,” said a very content Shields. “Thank you for coming out.”

Other Bouts

Local fighter Ardreal Holmes (14-0) defeated Haiti’s Wendy Toussaint (14-2) by technical split decision after the fight was stopped early due to a bad cut following a clash of heads in the super welterweight match.

Toussaint was the aggressor through most of the fight but when a savage cut opened up above his forehead the referee stopped the fight though the ringside physician had given approval to continue.

The fight was stopped at 1:54 of the eighth round and Holmes won 76-75, 77-74, 74-77. The Detroit crowd booed the decision loudly.

A middleweight contest saw Michigan’s Joseph Hicks (7-0, 5 KOs) use his height and reach to dominate Atlanta’s Antonio Todd (14-8) from the outside. All three judges scored it 80-72 for Hicks.
