Canelo Alvarez has never talked about Christian Mbilli this way. The dismissive remarks sound less like genuine confidence and more like irritation that the public actually believes Mbilli can beat him on October 31 in Riyadh. “There’s no way he can fight like that because I’m not [Lester] Martinez,” Canelo said. “They took and threw punches like crazy, and they are strong, of course, but that’s not boxing,” he told DAZN during its “Face Off” preview. “It’s just a different level. He’s going to find out. I love that style, and he’s strong. He knows he’s going to come forward,…

Tyson Fury has promised to make his long-discussed fight with Anthony Joshua quick and painless, provided Joshua finds the nerve to sign for it. Fury’s latest performance came after what he described as a brutal gym session. With negotiations still dragging, the former heavyweight champion portrayed Joshua as a reluctant businessman who would rather manage his property interests than face him. “It’s all right, Joshua. I know you’re afraid, but I won’t hurt you. I’ll make it quick. I’ll make it a quick KO so you can get back to your business work, being a landlord and stuff,” Fury said…
Isaac Cruz scored a first knockout victory in five as he defended his WBC Interim super-lightweight title for the second time with a stoppage of Nestor Bravo in San Diego, and now Bravo has assessed the power of ‘Pitbull’. Cruz and Bravo became the latest Mexican-Puerto Rican boxing rivalry as the Arecibo-born challenger attempted to pull off the upset and intercept Cruz’s looming shot at Dalton Smith’s WBC super-lightweight world title by capturing his Interim strap. It wasn’t to be for Bravo as Cruz dominated a scrappy affair and twice floored his rival, with the latter being a devastating left-hook…
David Benavidez is mapping out a multi-division campaign that his team hopes will culminate in a heavyweight appearance against Andy Ruiz Jr. José Benavidez Sr. laid out a scenario where David campaigns at cruiserweight against Michal Cieslak and Jai Opetaia, drops to light heavyweight for Dmitry Bivol or Artur Beterbiev, and then jumps into the heavyweight division. “After that, we would love to make a fight with Andy Ruiz. We’re just dreaming here, daydreaming, but those are the fights that I think are very possible to make. Imagine David Benavidez and Andy Ruiz. Andy is a great fighter. My heart…
(Naoki Fukuda) Jin Sasaki claimed the Japanese welterweight title in Tokyo, Japan, with a bruising six-round beatdown of David Ssemujju on Monday. It marks the third consecutive victory for Sasaki since he was stopped by Brian Norman Jnr in the fifth round of a June 2025 bid for the WBO title at 147lbs. Sasaki, 22-2-1 (19 KOs), was typically aggressive from the start but wild. Even so, the attacks had the desired effect in the second round. Ssemujju, born in Uganda and based in Japan, evaded four wild swings before opting to hold and take a breather. Sasaki was not in…
Tottenham Hotspur are a 13/2 shot to be relegated this season, while Roberto De Zerbi is also the 2/1 favourite to be the first Premier League manager to be sacked, according to William Hill. The North London side were 40/1 for the drop before the campaign started but have plummeted to 13/2 after picking up just two points from their opening five games.
