Hear More On Tyson-Douglas Anniversary And Fight Previews

On the latest edition of the “Big Fight Weekend Preview” our insider Dan Rafael and me took a look at the championship fight card in San Antonio, TX and a rising prospect headlining in the U.K. We also had to talk about the anniversary of boxing’s all-time biggest upset with Buster Douglas’ KO of “Iron” Mike Tyson.

You will get more on the two Saturday cards- Rey Vargas vs. O’Shaquie Foster for the vacant WBC junior lightweight title in the Showtime main event and Mario Barrios vs. Jovanie Santiago in the welterweight co-feature, as well as, hot-shot junior welterweight prospect Adam Azim vs. Santos Reyes, which headlines on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom (and is available via FITE in the United States).

We also covered plenty of news of the week, including the latest on the Gervonta Davis-Ryan Garcia contract soap opera and the announcement of the Matchroom Boxing/DAZN schedule through May, and looked back on the anniversary of the unforgettable Buster Douglas upset of Mike Tyson.

Previewed of the Vargas-Foster title fight as well as Barrios-Santiago.

Preview of Azim-Reyes and I explained why I am like Azim so much as a prospect.

We got into the lone issue that has kept the Davis-Garcia fight from being finalized — the rematch clause. I explained they way it should be handled.

Gennadiy Golovkin’s decision to vacate the IBF middleweight title, why he did it, what might happen next now that his other mandatory with Erislandy Lara has been ordered. Where does GGG go from here?

Thoughts on Anthony Joshua’s comeback against Jermaine Franklin being finalized as well as his decision to go with trainer Derrick James.

Breakdown of the rest of the schedule unveiled by Matchroom Boxing and DAZN.

The announcement by Golden Boy and DAZN that Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez’s return on March 18 will come against Gabriel Rosado in a terrible fight. We get into just how bad it is.
