Dana White vs Eddie Hearn is heating up. After rival UK shows, White questioned Hearn’s influence and claimed he may know more about Joshua-Fury than the Matchroom boss. Hearn hit back by criticising the UFC model.
Plus: Katie Taylor’s Croke Park dream, Bam Rodriguez’s path to Naoya Inoue, and a look back at Thomas-Weaver (1985).

🎙️ Chris Billam-Smith should have too much experience, size and quality for Ryan Rozicki. But if he's not fully switched on, Rozicki has the style, toughness and aggression to make it a very uncomfortable night.

🎙️ Anthony Joshua still has plenty to prove. But mentally, he looks in a better place than he has for a very long time – and that could be a problem for the rest of the division..

Ryan Garcia vs Conor Benn on Sept. 12 in Las Vegas looks all but set – a huge and hugely controversial fight given both men’s drug-testing histories. The same night, Canelo faces Christian Mbilli in Saudi Arabia. Another Turki Alalshikh mega-weekend incoming? 🥊

“I don’t know what his financial situation is… maybe he needs money, or maybe he’s just anxious to get out of the house. But ‘Loma’ represents the best of what boxing has to offer.”
