Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Fredomago]

That won't happen as per reducing the rounds, there are specific rounding counts depending on the weight limit per se. It's unavoidable really because it's a contact sport.
The boxers are aware of those risks because even a long time ago, they've heard and seen the news about a sudden passing through major blows on the temple.
That's the risk they know and their trainers are also assessing that so that it won't happen to the fighters that they're coaching. They know what's best for each of them and they've already embraced this as a chosen profession.

Well, the boxing commission really knows this aswell but they can not reduce certain rounds because boxing will now be boring to watch in a limited round what can they do to prevent it and to lessen the death, they are now admitting that they can not do a thing to this kind of problem but I don't really think coaches or the fighter can remedy that part with their training, but in further more years to come, it is just going to be uglier if they chooses to change certain rules in the declining popularity of Boxing over MMA like I have said if the

Almost everyone knows those risks but just like what you've said, they can't do about it to make the sport much safer. I guess that's the end of it and for now, all they can do is accept the said risks while the people behind the industry is searching for some remedies without making the fight uninteresting. This is the sport they chose, combat sports specifically and it's natural that fighters will get hurt.

Combat sport that can takeaway lives, but there's no force that happened here fighters do have free-will even they knew that the sport they are is very risky they choose to continue fighting whatever happen they wanted to have a good career and the money that they can take is huge.

They've learned thing from the experienced of those successful legends and they wanted to follow that path even it possibly takes their own life.

[blockman]

Yes, there's a certain reason the rounds are up to that number. It's really to control and avoid that scene when a sudden strong punch has been thrown to the body part which can cause the death of the boxer.
You'll never know if it's on the head, back head, or even on the abdomen part could also cause death when the internal organs of the boxer that have been hit are delicate and will cause implications inside or hemorrhage.

Watching the recent deaths in boxing, this year 2022 Arest Saakyan, death to opponent Igor Semernin, Simiso Buthelezi's death to opponent Siphesihle Mntungwa, and Luis Quinones's last opponent Jose Munoz, well all causes of death was head trauma or injury to the head, Notable injury fighters can not stand up and unconscious while Simiso Buthelezi was fighting a hallucination inside the ring when the referee stops the fight because Simiso Buthelezi never stop fighting that day, he keeps on going on, till the end,

Those were tragic, well, all of the deaths while having a fight are tragic. It's too sad that they have to go too soon and it's going to be a match. I guess you've also heard this news about a young boxer in our country that suddenly died after a sparring match.

Accidents happen and I believe if the person is bound to that destiny (death) at that age, he will die no matter what the cause is.  If the person did not die in that fight, he will probably die by other means.  We also see some deaths in other sports which should be unlikely to happen but it happens.  Like for example in a football game, you can see the list of death here[1] while they are playing. Even death on track and field happens.[2]


Anyway, I am still waiting for the result of Marinez - Ancajas fight.  Hopeful to hear a good news soon.

Anyway, I am still waiting for the result of Marinez - Ancajas fight.  Hopeful to hear a good news soon.  

I saw this fight. In the undercard of Sebastian Fundora. Maidana was there too to support his countryman. Martinez is very strong and is very aggressive of a boxer. Ancajas was no match, bleeding, gassed-out and he was beaten to the punch by the stronger and much elusive boxer.

I was looking forward to Adames and Montiel. Thought it was a banger but Adames finished it early in the third round. Main card was pretty clear to me that Fondura will win but didn't thought it would go the distance. Looking forward to that kid to face Charlo.

It looks like Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor are indeed talking behind the scenes to make the rematch into a reality because it was already reported that the two is nearing to close the deal and it says that the fight will be contested at 155 pounds, currently, the two are just finishing some details including the terms.

If that will happen, their rematch will likely happen somewhere in the 1st quarter of 2023 because Floyd Mayweather have 1 more exhibition fight this year versus Deji (another YouTube star) at the Coca-Cola Arena, Dubai.

We could say that this is a two rematch because they are planning two fights across two sports.

Mayweather vs McGregor rematch is close: One boxing and one MMA fight for 1.5bn dollars
Could finally meet again in the Middle East

https://www.marca.com/en/boxing/2022/10/08/634163bd46163fdb7d8b45db.html

As long as they are Youtuber's MMA fighters Floyd Mayweather will surely fight, them, for me Deji is no match against Floyd Mayweather but Conor McGregor has a fighting chance because he is a fighter and he also fought Mayweather inside the ring, so he has experience in fighting him, but a huge likely that Floyd Mayweather will surely fight both these fighters,

Those were tragic, well, all of the deaths while having a fight are tragic. It's too sad that they have to go too soon and it's going to be a match. I guess you've also heard this news about a young boxer in our country that suddenly died after a sparring match.

It was tragic because it can not be prevented if it is an arms or leg injury it is not fatal, but most of them are fatal would to the Brain maybe it was Intracranial Bleeding to the head that cause this boxer to pass away, and sometimes become comatose for MMA most injuries was on the arms, and legs and not fatal but for Boxing for the head to sustain that severe continues blow could surely cause internal bleeding,

That Professional boxer was Axiel Van Dignos an 18 years old, and I surely heard of that news, but because I thought that he was just an amateur I haven't added him to the list of boxers, but in hearing this news again, I was shocked that he is really a professional and only 18 years old, and his death will be just because of a sparring match, and it was an Intracranial Bleeding and due to repeated blows to the head, I am quoting this word because I assumed this is the cause of all the deaths in boxing, and no one can tell if this would likely occur to all boxers or just an unlucky few,

It was an unlucky moment for him. No one thought that he'll be ending his career and life like that because his family thinks that he's got the potential to be something big in the future.
But that's no longer a thing anymore because he's not with us anymore and there's no way to stop these sudden unintended deaths by those blows whether it's from sparring or actual pro/amateur fight.

As time goes, the physical condition of Mayweather is no longer on its same level. If McGregor land a solid punch on him, he might
endanger his life, though the chance of winning is still high for Mayweather.

But we never know when an accident will take place, and basing on that last statement where he doesn't want to fight a real fighter
it's more on the security side.

Just play for the money and take advantage of the fan base youtubers. It's still money that he can collect, so why not, right?

Then why announce that he would not fight real boxers anymore if even Professional boxers like Pacquaio he can surely beat, well, I really think it is to his age, he is not immortal, and he can surely feel that he is now depleting, having ring rust for some that know of it, his age is really catching up to him and he can really tell that his retirement is one thing or another to be enjoyed by him that is why he has done fighting dangerous that could get his fun to a halt,

It was an unlucky moment for him. No one thought that he'll be ending his career and life like that because his family thinks that he's got the potential to be something big in the future.

We can say that every death in boxing is very tragic, but can we just say something like that without having to do something about it, let's put ourselves in the shoes of their families and relatives surely you would be hurt if a loved one would die from boxing right, Is it just like that we just move on because someone passed away from boxing, do we just settle with remorse from the commission of boxing and be done with it, or we just wait for boxing to be banned because those deaths are getting higher and higher,

In my opinion, you greatly underestimate Mayweather, if the fight goes purely according to boxing rules, then McGregor has no chance of winning. Mike Tyson is 56 but the latest workout videos are terrifying if you think he'll fight you. Floyd is 45 years old, yes, he is 9 years older than McGregor, but McGregor was never even close to Floyd's level. I think he will easily win this fight (and if he wants to, he will knock out McGegor).

Yes, McGregor just have to find that perfect timing to give Mayweather a solid punch to drop him but at the time, 5 years ago, Mayweather is still agile and quick to read McGregor's punches that's why the latter haven't successfully land a good solid punch. Now, he just wanted to play it safe that is why he released that statement, he is already 45 now and just fighting in exhibition, he need a lot of time to prepare if he will fight a high caliber boxer/fighter but that won't be enough to increase his chances as his numbers are quite high already.

Then why announce that he would not fight real boxers anymore if even Professional boxers like Pacquaio he can surely beat, well, I really think it is to his age, he is not immortal, and he can surely feel that he is now depleting, having ring rust for some that know of it, his age is really catching up to him and he can really tell that his retirement is one thing or another to be enjoyed by him that is why he has done fighting dangerous that could get his fun to a halt,

Because his chances are not the same anymore just like his power, speed and defense maneuvers. He cannot hide that fact that he is already old even if he's still fight in exhibitions, he will have the ring rust effect if he will choose to deal with the likes of Pacquiao nowadays, a May-Pac fight is profitable but knowing Mayweather, he doesn't want to get embarrassed from being defeated.

[mirakal]

I think there are fight that is being sanction for 10 rounds, specially young prospects like 10 fights or less. But as far as the gloves goes, I remember Manny loving the Cleto gloves or it is Reyes gloves, both weight but the difference is that one is a puncher gloves and then the others to protect the hands or something like that.

So I guess the boxing organizations really done everything to protect the fighters in a brutal knockout, but inevitable that they really punch so hard that it can damage their opponent for good.

Well, certainly the gloves thing is something additional, for us it is more exciting that they have light gloves, because the speed of the blows is much greater, and if we could talk about great things that would make boxing bigger and with more options to have emotions in the fans, if they change the gloves to be lighter I think it would attract more people, but the bad thing is that blows like that, it's like you say, would cause permanent damage to the person, however I know what that is, because in part when it comes to boxing those gloves are somewhat softer that they don't hurt, in Hapkido the gloves are softer, and I know that sometimes they do do some damage.

Fewer rounds for the beginners until they earned enough experience and ready for 10 and 12 rounds.

I saw it before, they weigh the boxers boxing gloves. So they are in the same weight. Cleto Reyes was very popular before. Muhammad Ali, Tyson, Lewis, Pacquiao and many Mexicans wear it because it is harder. But I don't see anymore boxers using Cleto Reyes. Many boxers now want to use gloves that can protect their hands more. Mayweather too wears gloves that can add protection to his fragile hands. Rival is what I can see most often, I think it is a new brand. Loma uses that Rival gloves. 

That might do but that won't guarantee safety, researchers are still digging what to do to reduce the chances of these incidents. There are some overhauls in the industry way back 1980 and established a 10-round fight but as years goes by, it was again back to a 12-round fight.

Cleto Reyes from Mexico are quite famous in the early 2000-2010 because they said that it was so comfortable that boxers tend to forgot that they are wearing gloves but now, boxers tend to choose Grant gloves and Everlast more than Cleto as it gives both protection from their knuckles and it also weigh lighter.

[Kasabus]

He is just trying to take advantage of the opportunity while he's still famous and known because sooner or later, he will be forgotten and become an old news even if he got an undefeated record during his professional days. And now that he said that he's already done fighting a true fighter, I expect that he won't be fighting McGregor as well because if he accept that fight and rejected the idea to have an exhibition fight with Pacquiao, I will be convinced that he's just trying to duck the Filipino legend, AGAIN!

Yes, and look what he has gotten him in taking advantage of a Youtuber/boxer or an MMA/boxer to fight him in a boxing rule fight, he will surely win the fight, and the purposed of it was just money and entertaining himself, Well he will not surely take a boxer to fight him anymore so that Manny Pacquiao fight is really out of the picture,

And I don't even know why his fights are still a must watch to anybody out there, it's not that entertaining and exciting anymore because he is just fighting amateur fighters that is way out of his league and even before he said that he won't accept any fights against any boxer that is near his caliber, we already know that he won't agree to any fights where his chances to win are not guaranteed.

And we have this rumor that he'll fight with McGregor again, what does that mean? It's seems to me that he's just afraid to face the legendary boxer once again even if it's just an exhibition fight.

To my perspectives, he is afraid facing Pacquiao as he knows that even it's just an exhibition Manny will take it seriously and the winning chance for him is slim, and aside from that, fighting Pacquiao he needs to train hard in order to make sure that his body is well prepared, The Pinoy legends always put pride once he steps inside the ring.

Mayweather, on the other hand, he's more on the money and he wanted to have an easier and surer fight to accept.

Plus the money that what will move Mayweather, nothing but all is for the money.

I share the same opinion, he suddenly said that he won't be fighting anymore in such fighter in the same caliber when the fans are hyping for a second dance between the two of them. Before that hype, there was even a rumor that Mayweather and McGregor is working for a second bout, but when it comes to Pacquiao his tone suddenly changed. Well, that action he made was more than enough reason to believe that he is still afraid of Pacquiao until this day.

You seen the latest footage of Mike Tyson training? Good lord… I don’t want to see him fight again because I don’t want him to risk getting hurt, but there is no way that Jake Paul could handle Mike Tyson at 57 years old. I wouldn’t want any part of a fight with this guy. He looks terrifying. I wouldn’t even want to be in his trainer’s position…

I haven't seen this discussed but I was waiting for this fight this weekend until it got postponed:

Eubank Jr. vs Benn boxing bout canceled due to drug test failure

Former IBO boxing champion Chris Eubank Jr. was set for a generational grudge match against Conor Benn on Saturday October 8th, but the fight has been scrapped at the last minute.

https://www.bloodyelbow.com/2022/10/7/23393236/boxing-drug-test-scandal-conor-benn-vs-chris-eubank-jr-cancelled-fight-news

Unfortunately, this legacy fight is cancelled because Eubank jr has been tested positive for a ban substance. And so the BBBoC has to issue and order stopping the fight. Although Matchroom and Eddie Hearn thinks that they will go and continue to his fight as unsanctioned, they just decided to postponed it for now.

but i believe his sciatica, a nerve condition is a dangerous one if this one kicks in while inside the ring and the opponent doesn't know he's already experiencing it. so for me, even exhibition fights, tyson should already let go. better enjoy his remaining years without not much problem in terms of health. that sciatica condition was the reason why he was seen using a wheelchair and a walking stick. but if he doesn't have this condition, i can say, he can easily beat Jake Paul even with the age gap.

[blockman]

The commission or organizations of boxing will just have a few words of condolences and a portion of financial help then that's it. Not everyone has to stop what they do because someone has gone through a tragic way of death. It's not just a few but many already and yet, the sport keeps on moving and any athlete that has chosen this path understands that this is the risk that they will take and the consequence that might occur could be tragic for them and for their family.

Even though he didn't suffer an injury, I don't think that Mike Tyson is still fit to fight even in an exhibition match.

People should now accept the fact that they can't see the legend now doing some actual fight.

He's now part of the boxing history and just let him rest for good away from the gloves.

[Sarah Azhari]

I heard Mike Tyson is seriously ill, he can't walk and is only in a wheelchair, is this true?

I'm not aware of it though, but if this is true, then this is a sad news.

I'm also not aware on this that's why I made some research, and there it goes.

I hope he quick recovery back and goes to the exhibition fight as the planing. I heard Tyson Fury was also interested to meet him but the problem is the age between them is too far. if happens, seems like an unfair fight, and Mike possibly lost in 1st round. Many observers say he doesn't need to continue fighting and is better to continue to explore as a Hollywood actor.

Although Matchroom and Eddie Hearn thinks that they will go and continue to his fight as unsanctioned, they just decided to postponed it for now.

I am actually glad that his fight had been canceled. I'm glad Hearn and DAZN didn't force this event to go through. I think Connor has a lot of confidence and guts but he is too small for the former super-middleweight contender. Another thing is the wide difference when it comes to experience. Chris failed to become a legit world champion but he got too much world-class experience while Connor is only an unproven prospect. Their catchweight was 157 which is only 3 pounds south of Chris' weight while 10 pounds above Connor's.

And a little correction mate. It was Connor Benn who got caught with an illegal substance in his body.
