Boreham Wood chairman Danny Hunter has issued an update on the Abdul Abdulmalik transfer situation in his programme notes. Less than 24 hours after the £1.5m-rated Abdul Abdulmalik asks to leave Boreham Wood, a lengthy statement from Hunter has been published ahead of his side’s game against Boston United on Thursday. Hunter spoke of the outside noise, the recent press leaks, Abdulmalik’s current situation, Hthe player refusing to train and much more. 🗣️ “As such, I’ve decided, rather than do an external interview with the many, that I’d quietly set out my thoughts in these programme notes, as I’m the…

Mikaelian has not been removed from the card, and the development does not mean the fight has been canceled. Zuffa is protecting itself in case King files a lawsuit or attempts to stop Mikaelian from fighting through an injunction. King maintains that he has a binding promotional agreement with Mikaelian. He also claims arrangements were made for the WBC cruiserweight champion to face David Benavidez. Mikaelian has disputed that version, saying he never received formal paperwork for the proposed Benavidez bout before accepting the Opetaia fight. Muted Promotion Makes More Sense The contingency planning may help explain the unusually quiet…

Canelo Alvarez is training to use more footwork against Christian Mbilli, but the adjustment may accelerate the fatigue he is trying to avoid. A 36-year-old fighter with declining output and an unreliable gas tank is preparing to expend more effort against the most relentless combination puncher in the super middleweight division. A video posted by DAZN Boxing shows Canelo circling the ring while working with former opponent Jaime Munguia. The emphasis on footwork signals that Canelo and trainer Eddy Reynoso understand how dangerous remaining stationary will be against Mbilli on October 31 in Riyadh. Mbilli is a nightmare stylistic fit…

Part of Andoni Iraola’s charm is his ability to flourish with what he’s got at his disposal, the Liverpool boss having previously worked wonders at Bournemouth despite so much upheaval. The Spaniard lost almost his entire backline last summer, yet still proceeded to steer the Cherries into the Europa League, a fine feat considering he’d also seen star man, Antoine Semenyo, join Manchester City in January. Iraola – who had been a central figure in the rise of the Ghanaian – subsequently oversaw a remarkable unbeaten run following the sale of Semenyo, the Cherries’ first loss since January coming at…

(Michelle Farsi / Most Valuable Promotions) Alycia Baumgardner will step up to lightweight on November 8 when she challenges IBF champion Elif Nur Turhan at College Park Center in Arlington, Texas.

Dubois, 13-0-1 (5 KOs), defends her WBC and WBO straps on Saturday when she takes on Amelia Moore in Birmingham, England. The 32-year-old Baumgardner, the reigning unified WBO, WBA and IBF junior lightweight boss, is expected to be ringside to see Dubois, and no doubt pose for…

“We’re combining DAZN’s global scale, premium sports content, and technology capabilities with EverPass’ market-leading commercial distribution platform to help shape the future of sports viewing in venues worldwide,” DAZN posted on X. The NFL Built the Network Boxing is not the foundation of this purchase. EverPass was launched in 2023 as the exclusive commercial distributor of NFL Sunday Ticket, giving bars access to out-of-market Sunday games unavailable through residential subscriptions. Built around football, that network persuaded businesses to install EverPass equipment and pay for its service. The company then added ESPN+, Peacock, Prime Video, Apple TV sports, Paramount+, and regional…

Catterall defeated Shakhram Giyasov on May 23 to get the WBA’s secondary welterweight belt. The organization then required Romero to face the winner within 180 days. Catterall maintains that the WBA has told him he is next and that promoter Eddie Hearn has written to WBA president Gilberto Mendoza requesting an immediate order. Lopez’s legal team can argue that the original directive named Romero, but a mandatory requirement issued by a sanctioning body is not simply a private contract that binds only the two fighters named in it. The WBA committee can transfer the obligation, modify the deadline, or grant…
