Adrian Curiel-Sivenathi Nontshinga II: Stats & Stakes

Junior flyweight has already delivered a fight of the year contender in 2024. Kenshiro’s lineal title defense against Carlos Canizales set a bar for the division this year, the same way his run atop the division has set a bar for what has been a strong and undersung era. 108 pounds isn’t always an attraction but its highs over the years have been red meat highlights for harcire fans. Classics like Carbajal-Gonzalez and Segura-Calderon stand the test of time and multiple champions from the division have been enshrined in the Hall of Fame.

Lightweight Shuffle Might Require Some Fan Patience - Boxing Scene

By Cliff Rold - It can be exciting to see a fighter collect all the belts in a single class. How they lose those belts is another matter. Sometimes, they lose them in pieces. Josh Taylor and Jermell Charlo are recent examples. Both assembled all the hardware at junior welterweight and junior middleweight respectively. Taylor defended all his straps once before inactivity and injury saw his waist whittle down from four belts to one. Eventually he lost the lineal throne, and his lone remaining bel…

Haney Seizes The Lead: BoxingScene Competition Index Update - Boxin...

Can 2024 Keep the Momentum Going? - BoxingScene.com

By Cliff Rold - The business of boxing outside the ring in the United States remains as in flux as it has been for most of recent history. Decades of stability by way of free network coverage gave way to decades of premium cable stability with ESPN and HBO. ESPN has been in and out of boxing since it launched with more time in than out. Times have changed.

Inoue, Haney, and the Heavies: December Preview - Boxing Scene

There are a handful of fighters right now in the race for fighter of the year in 2023. Terence Crawford, David Benavidez, and Tim Tszyu are among them and have all made whatever statements they will.

Memory Lane, 24 Hours a Day - Boxing Scene

By Cliff Rold - MLB, the NFL, and the NBA all have channels. Golf has a channel. Cricket? Tune in to Willow anytime (really, do…it’s sort of mesmerizing if the game is otherwise unfamiliar). Boxing? In the US, boxing has had many outlets but never a 24-hour a day spot to go watch the fights. Considering some of the libraries out there, it’s a shame. Part of the reason the legends of Joe Louis and Sugar Ray Robinson have endured is their fights have never really left the rotation.

Shakur Stevenson-Edwin De Los Santos: Stats and Stakes - BoxingScen...

By Cliff Rold - There is a corner of boxing that says Shakur Stevenson is a pound-for-pound king in waiting. Maybe he is. We won’t know one way or the other just yet on Thursday night (ESPN, 10:30 PM EST) but all Stevenson can do is stay active and collecting belts until the big fights come. If he keeps winning, the time will come when there is a Tank Davis, a Devin Haney, a Teofimo Lopez across the ring to give him a chance to further his case.

BoxingScene.com's Television Pick of The Week - November 16 - Boxin...

Pick It: Shakur Stevenson vs. Edwin De Los Santos (Thursday, ESPN, 10:30 PM EST) - Are we seeing the seeds planted for a showdown? The way the card is stacked this Thursday, we might be. 26-year old Olympic silver medalist Shakur Stevenson (20-0, 10 KO) hasn’t gotten himself into fights with the likes of Tank Davis or Devin Haney and should be expected to win his third divisional title, this one a WBC strap at lightweight, against 24-year old Edwin De Los Santos (16-1, 14 KO).

James Toney-Razor Ruddock: Party Like It’s 1991 - BoxingScene.com

By Cliff Rold - Thirty-two years is a long time. For Hall of Fame three-division titlist James Toney and once feared heavyweight contender Donovan “Razor” Ruddock, thirty-two years (and change) is how long it’s been since both had their breakthrough star-making moments in boxing. For Toney, those moments were achieved in victory; for Ruddock, in gritty losses.

BoxingScene.com's Television Pick of The Week - October 21 - Boxing...

Pick It: TBRB #4 Jack Catterall vs. Jorge Linares (Saturday, DAZN, 2:00 PM EST) - Luck is a funny thing. A little more of it with the judges and 30-year old Jack Catterall (27-1, 13 KO) would be able to say he won the undisputed junior welterweight crown in February 2022. Instead, Catterall caught the rough end of a split decision versus Josh Taylor and then rode a roller coaster of a rematch imploding along the way.

Showtime's Exit From Boxing Marks The End of an Era - BoxingScene.com

By Cliff Rold - There was a time when boxing fans stood in line, buying a ticket to their local movie theater rich with the latest silent fare, to see just a bit of a major fight that had happened sometimes weeks before… …a time when fans leaned their ear toward the family radio to hear Don Dunphy describe the live exploits of Joe Louis and Henry Armstrong…
