On The Watch “It’s All About Danny Garcia vs Shawn Porter”

WBC Welterweight World Championship

It’s on and popping! Two of the top former Welterweight Champions in Danny “Swift” Garcia (34-1, 20 Kos) and Shawn “Showtime” Porter (28-2-1, 17 Kos) are set to do battle for the vacant WBC World Championship, live on SHOWTIME, Saturday September 8, 2018, in a Premier Boxing Champions event from the Barclays.

To me, this bout has the potential of being a Fight of The Year nominee if both combatants bring their “A” Game and come correct with no bullsh*t excuses. Both have caught a respectable decision loss to Keith Thurman but aside from that still remain on top of the food chain.

With Keith Thurman sidelined for now, the No.1 spot in the Welterweight Division is up for grabs and these two “pitbulls” are willing and ready to find out who the best is between them. No shortage of confidence from neither warrior here. Styles make fights so none-stop action is guaranteed when these two bump fist-to-fist inside that squared circle.

Both fighters have been carrying heavy chips on their shoulders since their last loss. The pressure and the buildup to recovering a World Title is real heavy on them both but a win in Brooklyn on that Saturday September 8, 2018 will depend on who has the better game plan and can execute it the best without falling short of hesitation.

The stakes are high for them boys. Real Talk. It’s a very intriguing 50/50 fight whichever way you want to look at it. It’s must see boxing at its best. It’s not often we get to see two A+ skillful and high boxing IQ fighters that can bang it out and brawl with the best of them on the same stage. That being said, who will prevail when all is said and done?

Don’t miss the action, on SHOWTIME, Saturday September 8, 2018. Brooklyn stand up!

On The Watch “It’s All About Daniel Jacobs vs Maciej Sulecki”

WBA Middleweight Title Eliminator

Last night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn New York, Daniel Jacobs (34-2, 29 Kos) secured his WBA Middleweight Title Eliminator position by defeating a worthy contender in Maciej Sulecki (26-1, 10 Kos).

This was an exciting bout from start to finish. Real Talk! This Kat Sulecki may have sounded as an unknown to casual boxing fans but last night he definitely made a name of himself and showed the Middleweight Division that he’s a real -life player to be taken seriously. Although the outcome wasn’t what he had hoped for his aggressive style kept the attention of the fans in attendance.

That being said there are levels to this boxing sh*t and Daniel Jacobs is definitely levels above Sulecki. When the going got a little rough, Jacobs stepped up his game and showed Sulecki why he’s one of the top dogs in the Division. Sulecki was a tough customer who came out the gate ready to fight. The Kat’s got heart with no intention of backing down, but Jacobs is a seasoned warrior who adjusted on the fly and kept steady control of his opponent. It was a back and forth type of fight from round to round but when it was time for the curtain call, Jacobs knocked Sulecki down with a straight right hand in the 12th round with less than minutes left to wrap off the performance. Nuff said.

Jacobs needed a tough outing like this to keep him sharp and ready with that hunger for more. This win makes him a WBA mandatory challenger to Gennady “GGG” Golovkin and gives him another opportunity to redeem himself for his loss to “GGG” by unanimous but controversial decision in a close 12 round title fight back in March 2017.

Congratulations on your win Danny. Until your next bout stay focus and ready at all times.

Showtime Boxing Night

What a night!! Last night, Saturday April 21, 2018, Mayweather Promotions and Showtime Premier Boxing Champions delivered us another exciting tripleheader at the Barclays Center, Brooklyn New York. Real Talk!

First up was undefeated Gervonta Davis (20-0, 19 Kos) who became a Two-Time World Champion by annihilating in a devastating fashion Jesus Cuellar (28-3, 21 Kos) to pick up the vacant WBA 130-pound World Championship Belt.

There ‘s level to this Boxing sh*t and this young shooter has been leaps above his competition to date. REAL TALK! It took Gervonta less than 3 rounds to dispose of his worthy opponent. Three knockdowns, heavy accurate power shots and spectacular movement, were just too much for Jesus Cuellar to handle. Gervonta came ready to rumble and performed, as a Champion should.

Gervonta is truly the present and the future of this Super Featherweight Division.
Congratulations Champ on being the youngest Champion to ever do it this good.

Who really wants it next??

In the co-feature, undefeated Jermall Charlo (27-0, 21 Kos) overpowered Hugo Centeno (26-2, 14 Kos) with some heavy combinations and stopping him in the second round. EASYYY WORK! It was a total mismatch with no resistance whatsoever. The Kid is a “Beast” inside that squared circle hands down. With this win Jermall became Interim WBC Middleweight Champion and now mandatory to Gennady Golovkin.

The Middleweight Division just got shook with this one cause your Boy Charlo is coming for that No.1 Spot.

Congratulations Champ you are officially a Two-Time and Two-Division World Champion on the come up!

In the main event, in a catch–weight at 144 pounds, Adrian “The Problem” Broner (33-3-1 24 Kos) and Jessie Vargas (28-2-2, 10 Kos) battled to a controversial majority draw.

Real Talk! This bout was tight from start to finish; Broner performed way better than his last two outings in my eyes. He looked fit strong and his energy was much better. Vargas was on point early but seemed to be fading as the rounds wore on. Dude is tough though he never gave up when sh*t got popping. Kid definitely got heart.

Personally, I think that if Broner would have let his hands go just a little bit more sh*t would have been clear to all three judges. That being said a draw is not a loss and both can do it over again if need be.

Bottom line this was a good night of Boxing.

On The Watch “It’s All About Deontay Wilder vs Luis Ortiz”

WBC Heavyweight Title Challenge

Last night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn New York I witness two of the Baddest Heavyweights in the Game put it all on the line in that squared circle and DAMNNN they did not disappoint. REAL TALK!

In my eyes Deontay “Bronze Bomber” Wilder (40-0, 39 Kos) had his one missing defiant bout vs Luis “King Kong” Ortiz (28-1, 24 Kos). Deontay had to fight hard and dig real deep to overcome Ortiz’s experience inside that squared circle.

Shit got real for Big Homey. He quickly found out that Ortiz wasn’t going to be a walk in the park cause Ortiz came to fight by all means necessary. Truth be told Deontay did put “King Kong” down a total of three time in the fight but real talk in round seven in my eyes Ortiz had the upper hand on Wilder, he had the “Bronze Bomber” out on his feet but the man’s heart was pumping hard and would not let him go down. Real talk that bell and the ref saved him on that one. Shit looked bleak for Wilder at that point but like a true Champion that he is my man withstood Ortiz’s best shots and continued to survive round by round until the 10th round and connected on Ortiz not once but twice in that round and “King Kong” got clipped in a devastating fashion. Even when tired, Wilder still possesses that knock out power. Unbelievable.

This bout is exactly what both fighters needed to test themselves. The Best fighting the Best. Ortiz showed up and performed beautifully and should have nothing to be ashamed off, he just happened to meet up with the Baddest Heavyweight in the Game today, in Deontay “Bronze Bomber” Wilder. This man is a serious problem for the Heavyweight Division “Hands Down”

Last night Wilder was tested, showed heart, and actually fought from behind in my eyes to secure his most defiant win in his career to date!

Congratulations Champ and thank you for giving us the fans a hell of a Heavyweight Bout. Keep making history and climbing that mountaintop.

SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING

IBF Welterweight Championship

Last night, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, Errol Spence Jr. (23-0, 20 Kos) successfully retained his IBF Welterweight Belt with a one-sided beat down TKO win over Lamont Peterson (35-4-1, 17 Kos). Lamont’s corner pulled the plug before the start of the eight round. REAL TALK!

I expected this bout to be more competitive but EJ was simply too strong and too proficient for Lamont to handle. EJ controlled every round from the jump. He showed incredible poise and clearly executed the game plan at hand to a “T”. Lamont showed up and gave it his best shot but the young gunner’s steady aggressive style was overwhelming Lamont round by round.

Sh*t wasn’t looking good at all for Lamont. To me it looked like EJ was toying with a sparring partner instead of a world-class opponent in Lamont. REAL TALK!

EJ is definitely the “Truth” in that squared circle and he’s only getting better bout-to-bout. He’s a serious problem for the Welterweight Division hands down. That being said I can’t wait to see who’s gonna step up to the plate and attempt at derailing this kid. Good luck to the opposition.

Until then congratulations on your win Champ.

SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING

IBF Welterweight Championship

Undefeated and newly appointed IBF Welterweight Title holder, Errol “The Truth” Spence Jr. (22-0, 19 Kos) will be making his first Title defense vs former Two-Division Champion Lamont Peterson (35-3-1, 17 Kos) on Saturday January 20, 2018 live on SHOWTIME at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn New York.

Peeps in the boxing community are already predicting the year 2018 will be Errol Spence’s coming out party to the rest of the 147-pound Division. As it stands right now Errol is one of the most avoided fighters in the Division period. This young blood is ready, loaded and hungry to unify the Welterweight Division but the other champions aren’t too keen to step up to the plate and answer that call.

The only gamer to do so, so far, is Lamont Peterson, a well-respected fighter with the heart and skills to go toe-to toe with just about anybody in the Division. Lamont has won titles at 140 and 147 pounds. He just recently renounced his own WBA 147-pound Belt to have a chance to challenge Errol. This Kat is no slouch in that squared circle. Lamont is a proven veteran who’s been on that big stage before and handled himself pretty well so I’m personally expecting a competitive bout come January 20, 2018.

With that being said Errol Spence Jr. is “The Truth” REAL TALK! The Kat is nice with his hands and his body shots are legit. The Boy knows how to take kats out in that squared circle-hands down. Iron sharpens Iron and you can clearly see that his growth and development as a boxer have improved dramatically from bout to bout.

Spence is heavily touted as being that Dude to take over the Division but before all is said and done he needs to handle his business at hand in Lamont Peterson. Let’s see who bodys who, come Saturday night January 20, 2018 at the Barclays.

Who you got?

On The Watch “It’s All About Deontay Wilder vs Bermane Stiverne”

WBC Heavyweight Title Challenge

Due to Luis Ortiz recent failed drug test, Deontay’s challenger on Saturday night November 4, 2017 at the Barclays Center, Brooklyn New York, became none other than his original mandatory in Bermane Stiverne (25-3-1 21Kos).

With the disappointment of the highly anticipated fight between Luis Ortiz and Wilder (39-0 38Kos) being cancelled, Deontay wanted to take his ever-growing frustration out on Stiverne and make a statement in the Division.

Now keep in mind that this fight was a rematch of their 2015 meeting, when Wilder first captured the WBC Title from Stiverne with a twelve round unanimous decision. At the time Stiverne was the only opponent to date who hadn’t been knocked out by Wilder.

Both fighters had something to prove. Stiverne wanted to avenge his loss and recapture his WBC Belt while Wilder wanted to finish the job in an even more convincing manner then the previous time.

Now with that being said Deontay Wilder successfully defended his WBC Heavyweight Title by dropping Bermane Stiverne three times in a dramatically vicious fashion, which prompted the referee to intercede with only seconds left in the first round. Unbelievable!! Personally I thought that Stiverne would have learned something from the 12 previous rounds with Wilder but damnnnn three knockdowns in the first round is a hell of an assertion.

This Kat Deontay is the truth in that squared circle hands down. He walks it like he talks it and keeps on chopping all his opponents down like trees. REAL TALK! I can’t front it would have been nice to see how he would have fared with the likes of “King Kong” Luis Ortiz.

With his mandatory out the way now his main focus is unifying the Heavyweight Division. He’s calling out Anthony Joshua for all them Belts. The question remains, will AJ answer that call and take the challenge?

Congratulations Champ, way to finish the year 2017 “Bomb Squad”.

Super Welterweight Division

Wow!!! Last night, Saturday October 14, 2017, Showtime Premier Boxing Champions gave us the fans an incredible tripleheader at the Barclays Center, Brooklyn New York. REAL TALK!
Six of the top Super Welterweights graced that squared circle and all performed stunningly on that stage.

First up was undefeated Jarrett Hurd (21-0, 15 Kos) the International Boxing Federation Titleholder who successfully defended his belt vs former World Champion Austin Trout (30-4, 17 Kos).
This bout was about a young hungry gunner climbing his way to the top of the food chain with no regard to whatsoever to any savvy proven veteran standing in his way. REAL TALK! Trout is a proven warrior and one of the best at that but your Boy Hurd was just too big and strong on that night. Austin brought his “A “ Game but was cut short by the 10th round. Hurd’s onslaught on Trout was just too much to handle.
Jarrett Hurd becomes the first fighter to beat Austin Trout by knockout or technical knockout. Congratulations on your win Champ.

In the co-feature, (which could have easily been the main event on any other night), WBC Super Welterweight Titleholder Jermell “Iron Man” Charlo (30-0, 15 Kos), also successfully defended his belt in an astonishing fashion by demolishing previously unbeaten No. 1 contender Erickson “Hammer” Lubin (18-1, 13 Kos) in the first round. Nuff Said!
Your Boy Jermell is the truth. The kid walks it like he talks it. He once again silenced all the critics and the haters who just can’t seem to come to grip that this kid is the real deal. The 154-pound Division has a real problem on their hands and he goes by the name of Jermell “Iron Man” Charlo. Good luck to the competition. Congratulations Champ!

In the main event, WBA/IBO Super Welterweight World Champion Erislandy Lara (25-2-2, 14 Kos) successfully defended his belts by knocking down previously unbeaten Terell Gausha (20-1, 9 Kos) on the way to a 12-round unanimous decision.
Listen his fight wasn’t as exciting as Jarrett or Jermell’s previous title fights but we can’t wrong the man for making it look so easy cause he’s still the top dude in the Division. We all know that styles make fights so lets hope his next performance is up to par to a real Champs standard. Congratulations Champ.

On The Watch “It’s All About Mikey Garcia”

WBC Junior Welterweight Diamond Champion

Last night on Showtime Boxing at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, I witness Three-Division World Champion Mikey Garcia (37-0, 30Kos) dismantle with a dominant display of Ring Generalship enactment against Four-Time Division Word Champion Adrien Broner (33-3, 24 Kos). REAL TALK!

I have to tip my “B” hat to your Boy Garcia for proving to me and all the naysayers just how good this Kat can be when the competition gets better and better. I was Speechless to see Garcia handle Broner a very strong opponent, is third loss of his career.

For twelve full rounds of action Garcia did not seem intimated or bothered by anything Broner brought to the table. Garcia had Broner figured out from the “Jump”. To me Broner did not look like a fighter who followed the “Game Plan” of his corner at all. I must admit that the betting circles had it right all along.

The bothersome pattern that Broner is falling into is real right now when faced with top-notch competition. Back in December 2013, Marcos Maidana handed Broner his first Unanimous-Decision defeat and June 2015 Shawn Porter defeated Broner for his second lost now fast forward another 2 years to now and once again Broner loses to a Unanimous-Decision to the Superior Fighter in Mikey Garcia. REAL TALK!

The Judges scored it 117-111, 116-112 and 116-112. For now, the New WBC Diamond Title Junior Welterweight Champion Mikey Garcia. Congratulation Mikey this was by far one of your best performances in that squared circle.

That being said I refused to think that Broner is a done fighter at this point in his career. AB is still young and talented enough to bounce back and make thing right for his career. To me the boy is gifted but definitely needs to reevaluate his approach come next fight. REAL TALK! Your thoughts on this one?

On The Watch “It’s All About Adrien Broner vs Mikey Garcia

This is a fight in my eyes that should have a little bit more steam behind it. REAL TALK! Adrien “The Problem” Broner (33-2, 24 KOs) and Mikey Garcia (36-0, 30 Kos) are both well respected in the boxing world. Both have successful careers to date and both are willing to put it all on the line come Saturday July 29, 2017 on Showtime Boxing at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Garcia the WBC’s Lightweight Champion is moving up to the agreed Junior Welterweight limit of 140 pounds. Broner also a past Champion at the Lightweight Division is moving down from the 147 Welterweight Division to challenge Mikey’s undefeated record at the Junior Welterweight limit, a familiar Division he not too long ago held a belt at. Skills for skills these two match up pretty well. Ring Generalship (check), Boxing IQ (check) Strength/Power (check). To me this is a legitimate 50/50 fight that could go either way. That being said the boxing aficionados, the boxing media, the boxing fans and the betting circles, most seem to consider Broner the underdog in this battle? REAL TALK!

I understand that Broner needs this win more than Garcia at this point in his career, but an underdog? Come on Ref! The stakes are high here for Broner. If Garcia wins or loses, he’s still going to be ok cause he can still go back down to the 135 pound Division and continue defending his WBC Lightweight Championship Belt as if nothing happened.

Now keep in mind Broner has won titles in four different Weight Divisions coming into this fight and Garcia has won in three different Weight Divisions. For people to think that this fight will be a cakewalk for Garcia is ludicrous. Broner has a tough task ahead. He has to come into this bout as the Champion of old in today’s form and prove the haters wrong for doubting your Boy. This will definitely be a defining night for Broner. Now will he talk the talk or concede to your Boy Garcia. Your thoughts on this one?
