Hear All About Bivol-Zurdo WBA Title Bout
We are ready with more action in the fist weekend in November, including the WBA light heavyweight world title bout that you will hear all about on the “Big Fight Weekend Preview.”
There are two notable cards on Saturday, a Matchroom Boxing show on DAZN from Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates headlined by the long-awaited fight between light heavyweight titlist Dmitry Bivol and formidable mandatory challenger Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez in an outstanding fight on paper and the PBC tripleheader on Showtime from Minneapolis topped by David Morrell defending his secondary super middleweight belt against mandatory challenger Aidos Yerbossynuly.
We previewed both shows and discussed a lot more and you can hear us by clicking below,
Here is what’s on the show (in order):
We recapped the significant fight that took place Tuesday in Saitama, Japan, where Kenshiro Teraji scored two knockdowns and stopped Japanese countryman Hiroto Kyoguchi in the seventh round to unify junior flyweight titles.
The Japanese card streamed on ESPN+ at 4:30 a.m. and led to some discussion on how boxing fans today have it way better than from years past in terms of access to bouts and full cards from around the world.
Why Are Spence-Crawford Only Battling On Twitter?
Deep dive on the implosion of the Errol Spence Jr.-Terence Crawford undisputed welterweight title fight based on Crawford’s lengthy Instagram video, in which he gave his side of the story, as well as the two fighters duking it out on Twitter on Thursday. That led to conversation about Crawford’s fight with David Avanesyan and the hard road it faces to be commercially viable as well as the prospect of Spence facing Keith Thurman next.
