“I wasn’t ready for that,” Crawford said to the TNT post-fight panel about Zepeda’s performance. “From round one, look at his movement, his footwork, his distance, his range, his angles, his feints, his jab, his counter ability, his punch placement. I was looking for the straight come forward type fighter.” Crawford’s analysis echoed what Zepeda revealed after the fight. The new champion said his loss to Stevenson gave his team a full year to study what needed to change, and many of those adjustments showed up against Roach. “We worked on many things,” Zepeda said. “We studied his videos, watched…
Fans always get excited when the transfer window comes around.Your team is linked with a big-name signing and you start to dream they could be the ones to lead your club to glory.Tottenham fans might have felt this way a few years ago when they were strongly linked with a young, prolific striker from Nigeria by the name of Gift Orban.They had every reason, on paper at least, to be excited.In the summer of 2023, Orban, then 21, was regarded as one of the hottest prospects in the game.After scoring 16 goals in 22 games for Norwegian top-flight side Stabaek,…
Morning all. A quick Sunday round-up for you, starting with Arsenal’s 4-1 win over Girona last night. It was interesting to see some big names start, particularly Kai Havertz, Piero Hincapie and Viktor Gyokeres, all of whom had been on World Cup duty this summer. Their tournaments ended earlier than others, and their games ended earlier than others too as they played just half an hour before being replaced. Clearly they are easing these guys back into action. At that point we were 2-0 up. Havertz opened the scoring with a nice finish after excellent midfield play from Max Dowman,…
Tony Bellew has outlined the distinction between “world-class” and “elite-level”, believing just two British legends fall into the latter category. While winning a major title should, in theory, mean guaranteed world-class status, it often depends on whether that particular fighter has crafted a world-class resume. Likewise, an elite-level fighter must consistently prove themselves against top-class opposition in order to be immortalised as one of the all-time greats. With that in mind, Bellew has named Terence Crawford, Oleksandr Usyk and Canelo Alvarez as three of boxing’s elite-level operators in recent years, providing an idea of what it takes to reach such…
