On The Watch “It’s All About 2025 NBA FINALS CHAMPIONS”

2025 NBA Champions

With one of the best NBA Final games played to date, the Oklahoma City Thunder fought through the challenges ahead and continued to stay true to their character and their No. 1 Seed throughout the regular season and the Playoffs to close out the NBA Finals 4-3 with a dominant performance win over a very competitive Indiana Pacers team. OKC just entered history by collecting their first Championship since the franchise moved to Oklahoma City from Seattle in 2008 after Seattle won the 1979 Chip.

The Oklahoma City Thunder, led by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, completed a historic year by becoming the first Canadian-born to win the NBA Finals MVP, Western Conference Finals MVP, NBA Regular Season MVP, the 2025 Scoring Title and capping off the year with an NBA Championship.

I tip my “B” hat to the Indiana Pacers for running through the Playoffs defying the odds the way they did and for putting up a hell of a fight on Game 7 without their key player Tyrese Haliburton, who suffered a leg injury seven minutes into the first quarter and eventually had to be carried out. Them Dudes are straight warriors. Real Talk!

That being said, it was only fitting that OKC walk away with the win and the 2025 NBA Finals Championship. They were the chosen ones from the jump this year and had to conquer the regular season and a tough and impressive Playoff run to complete the mission at hand. This young group of kids had a rare unity that grew with time captivating the league in a positive way and making their future together as a tight squad that much more intriguing to watch and follow.

Congratulations to the Oklahoma City Thunder for completing a very dominant season from start to finish. These youngins earned this one Hands Down!

On The Watch “It’s All About Galal Yafai vs Francisco Rodriguez Jr.”

WBC Interim World Flyweight Challenge

Tonight’s Matchroom/DAZN Main Event between WBC Interim World Champion Galal Yafi (9-1, 7 Kos) and challenger former unified WBO/IBF Minimumweight World Champion Francisco “Chichuas” Rodriguez Jr. (40-6-1, 27 Kos), surpassed all expectations when they touched gloves for a throwdown at the BP Pulse LIVE Arena, in Birmingham, England.

I don’t think Galal prepared appropriately for what transpired but Francisco seized his opportunity and brought the “HEAT” from round one and on and never looked back. Real Talk!

Francisco let his gloves go from head to body with exceptional clip and power behind every shot that had Galal on unsteady legs and confused from the jump. Normally, Galal has always been the aggressor and able to dictate the fight but this time around he was the prey trying to keep up with the heavy onslaught coming his way.

Galal was outgunned, outhustled and outmuscled from every corner. Galal attempted to stand his ground and go toe-to-toe but truth be told that was the wrong “game plan” to have considering that Francisco’s experience and durability was on a different level on the night.

Both combatants threw heavy leather at each other but the one administering the most visible damage round by round was Francisco with the way he boxed and moved with aggression clearly troubling Galai.

That being said, Galal had absolutely nothing to deter Francisco from having his way with him inside that squared circle. It was a one-sided beatdown that could have been halted but instead continued to go 12 full rounds with Galal eventually getting dropped to a standing 8 count in the final round. The Judges at hand had absolutely no issues scoring this bout 119-108, 119-108 and 118-109 unanimously for Francisco “Chichuas” Rodriguez Jr.

With this convincing victory now under his belt, Francisco is now the new WBC Interim World Champion.

Well done, Champ.

On The Watch “It’s All About Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford”

Undisputed Super Middleweight Showdown

The first of three press conferences to kick off one of boxing’s most intriguing super fights has officially taken off last Friday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with the announcement of the “Kingpin” Canelo Alvarez (63-2-2, 30 Kos) defending his Undisputed Super Middleweight IBF/WBA/WBC/WBO/Ring Magazine Championship Crown against former two Division Undisputed Champion and four Division Champion Terence “Bud” Crawford (41-0, 31 Kos) on September 13, 2025, at the Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas, Live on Netflix.

No one ever anticipated this matchup ever coming to fruition but with the boxing community talking and Terence starting to believe the “HYPE”, it took his Excellency Turki Alalshikh to bring it to reality.

Terence, fresh off winning another title, the WBA Super at the Junior Middleweight Division, will be moving up another two Divisions in pursuit of another challenge and the opportunity to dethrone the “Kingpin” Canelo Alvarez and release him of his Undisputed status, becoming the new Undisputed Super Middleweight IBF/WBA/WBC/WBO/Ring Magazine Champion of the World.

This is a tough task for “Bud” but truth be told, this man does not lack confidence and clearly believes that he is the one to get it done. Skill for skill them two warrior’s match up very well on paper but with Canelo being the true Super Middleweight who has been dominating the Division for quite some time as a Champion, it is very unlikely that he will lay down quietly without a tough fight.

Both Champions have a mutual respect (for now) for one another but on fight night, all will be out the window when these two combatants bump gloves inside that squared circle come Saturday night, September 13, 2025, at the Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas, Live on Netflix.

Tune in and witness the unthinkable unfold. Who will be the last man standing?
