Frank Sanchez: There is No Other Heavyweight Like Me Barclays Center, Brooklyn - Rising heavyweight Frank Sanchez (15-0, 11 KOs) scored a 10-round unanimous decision over Joey Dawejko (20-8-4, 11 KOs) to remain unbeaten. The Cuban fighter dominated with his movement, rarely being flustered by Dawejko's attack as he bounded around the ring and avoided the incoming Philadelphia native. Sanchez was also superior in punch output and accuracy, out throwing Dawejko 352 to 242 and out landing him by a 116 to 46 margin. MORE |

FRANK SANCHEZ LOOKS TO STAND OUT ON CROWDED STAGE OF YOUNG HEAVYWEIGHTSBack when HBO still showed boxing, their “Night of the Young Heavyweights” specials were among the most anticipated programs they’d offer. Setting aside the one stroke of irony, that the fighters on the two cards who lost by early knockouts (John Ruiz, Davaryll Williamson, Shannon Briggs) ended up having better careers than their conquerors, the interest in these cards was that they brought a crop of young fighters together on the same stage for a big TV audience eager to see who was coming up on the horizon to claim what was once considered the richest prize in all of sports. This Saturday’s PBC on Fox card headlined by Adam Kownacki against former title challenger Robert Helenius looks like a card that could very well have been that series’ third installment. Aside from the undefeated Polish favorite Kownacki, who has consistently drawn big crowds at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, there is Nigerian prospect Efe Ajagba and a Cuban heavyweight named Robert Alfonso, all in separate bouts. Frank Sanchez (14-0, 11 knockouts) says it’s his goal to stand out as the most impressive. MORE |

Charles Martin stops Gerald Washington in sixth round to earn IBF shot Charles Martin will, at some point, get a shot to regain the IBF title he lost in 2016. Charles Martin and Gerald Washington probably shouldn’t have been in an IBF heavyweight eliminator tonight, but they were, and Martin stopped Washington at 1:57 of the sixth round to earn a future shot at the belt he won and lost within 84 days in 2016. Martin (28-2-1, 25 KO) didn’t do anything spectacular tonight, really, but he mostly controlled the pace and distance of the fight against Washington (20-4-1, 13 KO), looking to set up a big left hand. In the sixth round, the opening presented itself, he cracked Washington clean, and Washington went down. He did get up but was unsteady and stopped by referee Tony Weeks. MORE |

WBSS Cruiserweight Final Between Yunier Dorticos, Mairis Briedis Scheduled After being bogged down by sanctioning body issues that delayed the second-season final of the World Boxing Super Series cruiserweight tournament for months, the fight has been scheduled. Yunier Dorticos will defend his 200-pound world title against former two-time world titlist Mairis Briedis on March 21 (DAZN), with the Muhammad Ali Trophy also going to the winner, at the Arena Riga in Riga, Latvia, Briedis' hometown, the World Boxing Super Series announced Friday. The fight, however, will not be a title unification bout as originally intended. That is because Briedis was stripped of his version of the world title by the WBO in late November. MORE |

Frank Sanchez To Train With Eddy and Chepo ReynosoCuban heavyweight contender Frank Sanchez is going to start a new chapter in his professional life by confirming a huge change in his corner, just as he is about to dive into a conquest to face the best fighters in the division. The promising Cuban warrior will be trained for his next fight by Eddy and Chepo Reynoso, who have an all-star stable with Mexican superstar Saúl 'Canelo'' Alvarez, rising star Ryan Garcia and undefeated former world champion Oscar Valdez. Sanchez was previously trained by his compatriot Erik 'Tigre'' Castaños. "The Tigre will always have a special place for me: he was a father, friend and brother at the same time, and what he did for me I will never forget. This is a decision made by the managers. We have to move on and now we're working with Reysoso," Sanchez told George Ebro. MORE |

At the recent WBC Convention, a motion was passed to have silver cruiserweight titleholder Ilunga Makabu face the highest rated challenger for the vacant title and Wlodarczyk is in the running for that fight. |

A gash caused by a clash of heads cut last April’s fight against Peter Quillin short after two rounds. An Achilles injury in late August forced him to withdraw from the rematch. MORE |

Dorticos pressed the action and was busier, while Tabiti tried to stay out of range. Dorticos suffered a nasty cut over his right eye after a sixth round accidental headbutt. Referee Eddie Claudio deducted a point from Tabiti for holding in round six. The bout ended in round ten when Dorticos knocked Tabiti out cold with a huge right hand. Time was 2:33. |

Dereck Chisora vs Artur Szpilka set for Whyte-Rivas card Another heavyweight clash is added to Matchroom’s July 20 bill. Dereck Chisora and Artur Szpilka are set to meet on July 20, as the heavyweights will be part of a big night in the division at London’s O2 Arena, with Dillian Whyte vs Oscar Rivas headlining, and Dave Allen vs David Price also set. We still don’t know if this card is going to air on DAZN or not, but it is set for Sky Box Office in the UK. Chisora (30-9, 21 KO) is a 35-year-old heavyweight veteran at this point in his career, but he’s still a legitimate fringe contender. In 2018, he beat Zakaria Azzouzi and Carlos Takam via stoppage, then in December, he was highly competitive with Whyte in their rematch, leading on two of three cards after 10 rounds before Whyte knocked him out in the 11th. In his last outing on April 20, Chisora was able to rather sleepily win a 10-round decision over Senad Gashi in a pretty miserable fight where Gashi didn’t want to engage at all, and Chisora, working with new trainer Dave Coldwell, was trying to box more. |

This is my second chance and I will do my best to complete it. I wouldn’t use the word ‘war’ about the fight like Krzysztof. It is a strong word, but I think it is going to be a beautiful and very watchable fight. CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE |

What is your assessment of your performance against Troyanovsky? “I wasn’t entirely satisfied with my performance against Troyanovsky. His style was quite inconvenient, as he didn’t engage. I am convinced that Prograis’ style will suit me much better. |

Murat Gassiev Moving to Heavyweight Murat Gassiev has signed a promotional deal with Matchroom Boxing USA, Ural Boxing Promotion and Warriors Boxing – and will move up to heavyweight in June as he prepares to fight on DAZN. The 25-year-old is moving up from cruiserweight where he landed the IBF world title in June 2016 after beating Denis Lebedev in Moscow, defending it with a third round KO of Krzysztof Wlodarczyk in New Jersey in December 2017 in the quarter-final of the World Boxing Super Series and then adding the WBA crown with a dramatic final round stoppage of Yunier Dorticos in February 2018. That victory led Gassiev to a final with Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed cruiserweight title, which Usyk won over the distance. Gassiev has mirrored the moves of Usyk by going up in weight and teaming up with Matchroom Boxing USA.CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE |
