The B -Side in boxing. B -Side shit. B -Side.
B -Side. And the B -Side. You got a B -Side.
The B -Side. B -Side. B -Side. B -Side. The B
-Side thing. This is the B -Sides Boxing Podcast.
Here we go. Boxing B -Sides. We are back to talk
the fights. I am joined by the homies. Josh,
how goes it? Yes. Good. This is going to be a
fun one. And the one and only Saul. Welcome back,
guys. Another week. More fights to talk. But
I got to talk. Another week. Another belt without
Virgil. I got to talk about my little homie Punch.
Punch the monkey. His name is Punch. I just...
I was immediately drawn to him. He has graduated.
They're taking away his little stuffed orangutan.
And because he has been accepted by... They call
them troops. The monkey fucking clans. They're
troops. So the adults of the group, of the troop,
are... Like, they hug him and they groom him
and stuff. So he's... He's going to make it.
Punch is a big boy now. All right. A little bit
of MMA recap. Extending the hand of friendship
to our fellows Nathan and Isaac over at Ultimate
F and Casuals. Oh, man. This March 7th, UFC 326.
This was a fucking mistake on my part. last when
we talked about it a few weeks ago i had said
there's no um there's no boxing on this weekend
right on this day in particular yes so you there's
a clear path if you are if you are just really
hard up and you really want fights and i listed
a couple that are that were supposed to be engaging,
exciting, striker -heavy, not a lot of grappling,
and boy, was I fucking wrong. Me when I lie.
Yeah, holy shit. One that I did call correctly,
Sumu Derji, in the early prelims, had a really
fun fight with Jesus Aguilar. Man, there was
one in the prelims, Cody Garbrandt. Ended up
winning a UD over Xiao Long. He got kicked so
hard in the nuts, he threw up. I saw that happening.
I was like, brother, I feel you. I know exactly
what that pain is like. Jesus. So there was that.
There's a pretty sick knockout to open up the
main portion. Gregory Rodriguez. Is he the one
that goes by RoboCop? I think he is. Maybe. I
think it's him. The two guys are both Brazilian
and whatever. Sorry, guys. I'm racist as fuck.
Other than that, like... Oh, Drew Dober. Holy
shit. TKO2 over Michael Johnson. There were rumors
that... Oh, the nephew, the kidnapped nephew.
The gangster disciples, that notorious gang,
kidnapped Michael Johnson's nephew, and they
told him, throw the fight in the second round.
And the fight got pulled off of the sportsbooks
because there were changes in the money line.
I don't know what the fuck that means. I think
there's a lot of money going on. michael johnson
stopped in two so they're like hey this is kind
of funky and they pulled it but the fight went
on he ends up getting stopped in two uh um i
i'll get into the my the conspiracy part of it
more on ultimate effing casuals i i think he
sold the fight i think he did um but Honestly,
that was like the peak of the excitement for
the rest of the card. And I apologize to anybody
who, on my advice, watched this. Specifically,
the main and co -main. Fuck it, even the one
before that, Raul Rosas over Rob Font. If you
watch these fights, because I said they should
be exciting, they should be fun. You have my
sincerest apologies. I wouldn't blame you. It's
all Dana's fault. I blame Virgil Ortiz. Why doesn't
he have a belt yet? Charles Oliveira, BMF champ
before Virgil Ortiz. Honestly, I just watched
softcore gay porn in there. That's, yeah, that's
what I was saying. It was the 25 -minute cuddle
session in the main event. Like, yeah. Goddamn.
Like, Max is, he did his signature little, like,
point down where he's like, we're gonna stand
toe -to -toe. And Oliveira went for it. Here's
the problem. They only had six fucking seconds
left on the clock. Oh, my God. God. So, it's
like Devin Haney. You can, you can do that. You
just fucking choose not to. And the funny thing
is that Charles Oliveira is not a boring fighter.
He's not. Yeah, it's just this fight was just...
This was ass. Yeah. I feel bad for Max. Apparently,
for whatever consolation it is, he was awarded
his jiu -jitsu black belt because he... Was facing
a superior grappler. Like superior rank or whatever.
And he defended himself. Adequately. So they
promoted him. Yeah. Get after it. But like I
said. I'll talk more about the. Conspiracy parts.
Of the Drew Dober fight. Over on Ultimate F and
Casuals. Wherever fine podcasts. Are distributed.
You can find that. Moving into the boxing news.
Most Valuable Promotions signs a long -term deal
with... I misspelled it here, too. God damn it.
ESPN. Not EPSN. MVP TV deal before top rank.
You want Jake Paul before you want... They even
founded the MVPW. where they're going to be putting
up the women's fights. Brutal. Not brutal that
they're doing that. Brutal that like the state
of our sport. I think ESPN, ESPN, even though
they let UFC leave, even though the top rank
deal expired and they are still like struggling
to renew it. I think ESPN had always intended
to stay in the fight sports game. They have maintained
their broadcasting deal with PFL, which is like
a secondary promotion. It's like the retirement
league for UFC, pretty much. What I think happened
here is MVP and MVPW offers fights. at a lower
cost because i'm like it's an unfortunate reality
the women don't get paid nearly as much as the
men even if they're like undisputed champions
and so that's what i think is happening here
is espn wanted cheap fights and they get to say
uh we're you know super gung -ho about putting
women on the forefront like even though we're
paying them less behind the scenes but they wanted
fights they wanted them cheap mvpw could oblige
uh oh yeah uh xander zayas you're not you're
gonna you get like fucking like three to five
women's fights for the cost of xander zayas the
unified champ right so that's what i think is
happening here I think Shanada put it nicely
when she said, like, it's unfortunate that they
went this route because even as much as we try
to shill for them, women's fights are often pretty
fucking mid. Oh, yeah. It's unfortunate. It's
just reality. What they could have done is signed
Probox. That's... You want... competitive matchups.
You want entertaining fights. You want big knockouts.
That's the shit that you want for ESPN. Probox
delivers all of that. Poo -poo. Oh, man. Speaking
of top rank, they signed Sammy Contreras, 5 -0
pro. Amateur standout. He had like, I lost count.
They said like 15 national championships or whatever.
They signed him to a multi -year deal. The only
reason I bring this up is that Top Rank doesn't
have a fucking broadcast deal yet. Why? Sammy,
bro. What are you doing, dude? And he got 2B.
Yeah, you're fighting on fucking Tubi? Is that
what you're... Tubi's got to share the air with,
what's it called? Swerve TV. They just put on
their Teen Titans, bro. All the shit they're
putting on Tubi. It's either this or Swerve TV,
dude. Yeah, it's... I know that American promoters
are like... It's a dumpster fire right now. But
of... The various dumpsters and their fires.
Top Rank, I would say, is the fiercest blaze
at the moment. And that's the one you sign with.
I don't know. Maybe you grew up watching Bob
Arum. Yeah, you watch Thursday Night Fights.
There has to be some reason that he decided to
go with Top Rank. Maybe they're the only ones
that were going to sign him. I don't know. Maybe
we should hit him up and see what's up. Yeah,
we should ask him. We should give it a shot.
Because this is an odd... It's an interesting
move. And I'm curious what the thought process
is. Huh. Interesting thought processes. Tim Zhu
will be facing Dennis Nuria in Australia on April
5th. This is leading up to the Errol Spence fight.
Fucking upside down people, man. Albanian middleweight.
I'm looking for a lifeline here. Can somebody
give me something here? Which one? Tim Zu and
Denis Nouria. No. I'm not. No. No. No. Thank
you. I will continue drowning. No, thanks. Move
on. All right. Moving on. Jason Maloney will
be facing - No, that's not how you spelled it.
I was going to get to that. Jason Maloney will
be facing Andre Donovan on April 23rd. Fucking
the baloniest of the baloney brothers is just
still doing it. He signed with Tasman Fighters,
who notoriously our favorite cruiserweight is
affiliated with them. We'll be talking about
him in a moment. But Jason Maloney, like, bro,
you got your ass fucking taken to school by Tenshin
Asakawa. You might want to read that. Shinada
has more to say about this than us. Yes. She
was actually like... Is this the guy who got,
like, beat by tension? I was like, yep, that's
the one. She's like, Jesus Christ. I can't defend
him. Yep. There you go. Jason Bologna, still
doing it. Speaking of Bologna brothers, IBF champ
Willy Baldo Garcia will be facing his mandatory
challenger, Andrew Maloney. The purse bid was
won by the Kameda Brothers. So, Andrew Bologna
getting a fucking title shot. Before Virgil.
Man, can y 'all shut up, brothers? It gets funnier
every week, dude. It really does get better every
time. It does, but it feels worse. extends beyond
parody. It's even funnier that he still doesn't
have a belt. He hasn't even fought for one. Honestly,
that's the harder part. Currently, his career
is in a shitty state right now. I get it. It's
a bad time right now, but all the time before
that... His career looks like... If you just
ignore his record, the way his career looks like
is that he lost the title challenge and then
is having trouble getting on that path back.
But no, he just never got in the ring for one.
Interims do not count. And that's what kills
me. That's what kills me. Every week you'll see
the worst fighter you've ever heard of so far
yet is either fighting for a belt or has a belt.
But this guy still, no. No, he's in court, actually.
Fighting for the right to lose to a guy who doesn't
have a belt. Well, I will say this. He will get
a belt after he beats Sebastian Van Doren if
he ever gets that fight. That's all I'm going
to say. You know what? I'm sure Virgil's just
this bit. It's the Joel Embiid conference finals
bit because it's the gift that never stops giving.
Do you remember Andrew Maloney versus Junto Nakatani?
Oh, that's one of my favorite highlights. Knockout
of the year. My knockout of the year. Just erased
him. Yeah. He fought for and lost a title, has
since rebuilt his career, and is getting a title
shot. And Virgil is in arbitration. It is a difficult
time. Moving on. Boxing guys ate us. Just the
Virgil bros, unfortunately. Just Virgil bros.
WBA orders Floyd Schofield versus Lucas Body
for their vacant title. Let's fucking go. Yeah,
Saul, let it rip. What do you got for Schofield?
Did they ever say what day it was going to be
on? I have not seen. Because I hope it's going
to be nearby. I would love to go watch that fight.
Is Scofield local to you? No, no, no, no, no,
not at all, not at all. I just want to see him
fight. Just because I've been glazing him like
crazy. Yeah, for the love of the game, I've been
glazing him like crazy, so. Bring a USB -C cable.
Right up the nose. I'll tell you, I'll tell you
this. You need to stop standing fighters, I'm
realizing. Hold up, hold up, hold up. I'm standing
Floyd Schofield. And I'm standing... First of
all, I stand Brian Norman Jr. because that's
kind of how I got onto this podcast. It's gone
wrong. It's just gone wrong every time you stand
a guy. Hey, hey, hey. Hold up, hold up, hold
up. Floyd Schofield hasn't lost yet. He just
pulled out twice. And he's only pulled... Virgil
hasn't lost. Floyd Schofield hasn't lost. And
Schofield is fighting for a world title, it seems.
And he's probably going to win. If he gets into
the ring, yes. That's what I wanted to ask you,
is Lucas Body has been bailed out with some thunderous
fucking knockouts. Can the very sick, poisoned,
decrepit Schofield survive that? Hey, who does
Tim Farmer like that? Who does Devin Farmer like
that? Jojo Diaz. Not really. Not like that. But,
no, I stand these fighters, especially Brian
Norman Jr., because that's how I got into this
podcast, was standing Brian Norman Jr. and trying
to defend him to Leo. And it worked for a while.
I want to offer something that, number one, it's
twofold, two sides of the same coin. Number one.
The fact that you stand these guys, just win
or lose, you still ride for them, like, yes,
absolutely. Or, on the other side of things,
if you were standing them and reality didn't
turn in their favor, you learn things, you grow
from things, maybe your perspectives change.
Either way, either stand firm, with what you're
with your guy or if you're gonna ditch him then
admit that you you know you were like mistaken
all of the these two things were what I proffered
to Nova Scotia boxing that that's all I was saying
to him was like dude you're fucking writing for
for uh galalia fi dude are you serious right
now and and he's like he's trying to act like
he didn't like he wasn't and then i'm like bro
either stand with your guy or admit you were
wrong either way i like i i really don't want
to make a fucking big deal about this it's galalia
fire you're fucking kidding me but That is neither
here nor there. Floyd Schofield, Lucas Body.
What are we going to do to celebrate Schofield's
ascension to world champion? I'm going to go
on the podcast and celebrate. If he wins. I'm
going to make another joke about Virgil Ortiz.
Floyd Schofield, champion for Virgil Ortiz. Champion.
That's the highlight. I mean, honestly, if...
To your point that you said right now, Leo, about
standing by your fighter. I'm just saying. Hamza
Shiraz lost to Carlos Adamis and everybody dipped.
He won. Everybody came back. When he beat Berlanga?
Yeah, when he beat Berlanga. The same. They all
got the chip. They called him a shitter. He knocked
out fucking Berlanga and everybody called him
the king. It's because we hate Berlanga. I shat
more on Adamis than I did Shiraz. I honestly
felt that Shiraz was a little weight -drained.
I knew O'Donnell was going to win. I just knew.
Well, he's the house guy. Quote -unquote house
guy, right? Yeah. He didn't win, but he won.
Right. He didn't win, but he won. Yeah. He got
a draw, but same reason why Lamont Roach lost.
Or had a draw twice. Yeah. I'll tell you this,
though. Go back to Floyd Schofield. Versus Lucas
Body. I mean, you're right. Lucas Body is a knockout
puncher. Floyd Schofield, I would say, at the
top level, isn't as experienced. I mean, he should
have had a JoJo Diaz. He has a Tevin Farmer,
but, I mean, Tevin Farmer's lost how many times?
Seven times, I believe? A lot of those are early
in his career. Four of them were before anybody
even knew who he was. Yeah, like, after the first
four, like, those... That's when we start counting
is the after four. Losses that actually represent
him as a fighter. Marquez lost one of his early
fights. Estrada lost one of his early fights.
Just two of my personal favorites. I think the
Jose Pedraza loss onward is when we start counting
his... Yeah, Pedraza's a legitimate loss. Losing
your debut by like... Losing your debut, losing
on points, drawing, like all these are like,
yeah. Marquez lost his debut. Whatever, dude.
Nobody cares. And honestly, yeah, you're right.
You're right. It happens. But, I mean, still.
I mean, Farmer in recent years still hasn't done
much. I mean, he fought Zepeda, and he arguably
beat Zepeda twice. Schofield knocked him out.
That's the best you can measure to him. Schofield
also has fought Rene Guiron, right? They were
calling him a bum, but now he's on Pro Box, right?
Doing good things on Pro Box. Yeah, he's doing
good things on Pro Box. I feel like that win
is aging pretty decent. I would like to know
what poison Schofield beat, because that should
be a dub on his record. Is it a hemlock? Cyanide?
Oh, my God. Just straight anthrax from Shakur
Stevenson's camp? You think they could afford
that? Something, dude. But, I mean, not just
that, but he would have fucking beat Jojo Diaz.
Pedro Diaz. I mean, that one was kind of rough
to see, but... I mean, I'm... I don't think it's
rough to see Pedro Diaz go down like that. No,
I'm saying it's rough to see Jojo Diaz live to
see another day. Oh, you're right, actually.
Because Schofield would have knocked him the
fuck out. Oh, yeah. No, no, that's fair. I feel
like this fight's probably going to be on a Ryan
Garcia card. Probably going to be co -main. Who
promotes Schofield? Golden Boy. Oh, no. He's
the last man standing on Oscar's table. Yeah,
he's like their elite prospect turning contender
guy. Yeah. Fuck, dude. Man, poison yourself again
and, like, run out your contract. Oh, man. No,
but he's right. You're right. Whatever it takes
to get out of that umbrella. Make sure you get
the measurements right so that you don't die.
I think seniors got it right after the first
time. Well calculated. All right, moving on.
WBC orders Dalton Smith versus Alberto Puello
for his first defense. Man, that's a stiff challenge
for Smith. No shit. That's a tough first defense.
Hindsight being 20 -20. Before that, we were
thinking Dalton Smith is heading into the fucking
fire. And now, he's out of the fire and into
the fucking frying pan. It's just a stylistic
challenge that is not entirely welcome. I mean,
it depends on what card he's on. You know, if
he's on a, you know, PBC or if it's on Matchroom.
Whichever one. They're not going to rig the fight
for Pueyo. Well, Premier Boxing Copium would.
Yeah. It's Alberto Pueyo, dude. Who's Dalton
Smith with? Is he Matchroom? Yeah, he is Matchroom.
That's right. Eddie was at the fight. What I
will say with Don Smith is I do want him to win.
As much as it pains me to root for a Brit, I
do like seeing the underdog come up and beat
everybody else. That's funny. That's funny and
it's inspiring. You know what, man? I wish him
great success as long as Virgil doesn't become
a champ. So that way... This guy's having fun
with it. I'm having so much fun today because
there's so much ridiculous bullshit that's gone
on lately. Like a Brit knocking out Matthias.
A Brit. A Brit winning against the boogeyman.
The boogeyman. When does that actually happen?
It's a British year. Except Nick Ball. We don't
talk about Nick Ball. He was a sacrifice. He
was a sacrifice to the boxing gods. Ball was
sacrificed for ball. I said the same thing last
week to Shanada about Dalton Smith was the plucky
upstart. Again, hindsight is 20 -20, but going
into the Matias fight, we're like, this fucking
kid's about to get... sent back on a stretcher
like on a hospital ship he's gonna be sent back
to the uk but nope he upset the apple cart in
a big way it would be super cool to see him continue
that against uh like matthias stylistically it
can be beaten like as we saw when his chin just
doesn't hold up anymore Alberto Pueyo, stylistically,
is a fucking nightmare for Dalton Smith. So that's
why I don't want to root against my fellow Latino,
but Dalton Smith, like, man, prayers up, dude.
I hope you keep doing it. Just keep letting them
put people you're not supposed to beat in front
of you and just keep fucking beating them. That
would just be great for me. Yeah, honestly, this
might be the first couple times that I'm actually
rooting for a Brit. This is a Brit story I can
get behind. Oh, yeah. Moving to another WBC fight.
WBC has sanctioned Lamont Roach versus William
Zepeda for their vacant title. fucking lamont
roach williams zapata were not like the one and
two but they petitioned yeah they petitioned
like we're making we're gonna make this fight
will you accept this as your vacant title fight
and what do you know lamont roach williams zapata
is it shrimp time or is it roach time is it ocean
roach or ground roach I think we're going to
see a third consecutive draw where I once again
go on a little diatribe about scoring after it's
done. And then we call for the death of judges
that we're going to see like one consistent judge
in all three of Roach's fucking draws. Let me
see. Let me see. Let me see. Yeah, please do.
Please do. So far. No, there hasn't been a consistent
judge. Oh, shit. Not yet. Well, I guess I can't
send death threats to anyone. Never mind. Well,
you can, but... Yes, I can, but... You always
can. Don't let your memes be dreams. Literally.
I got a question for y 'all. My thing is, didn't
they... This is all caused by the WBC shenanigans
with Stephen Fulton, right? With Shakur. It's
Shakur. Well, Stephen Fulton... Fight being that
they gave the interim to Oshaki Foster. It wouldn't
have happened if Fulton wasn't a fatty, though.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So, I mean, I don't
know. Honestly, that's going to be a good fight.
But I don't think either guy deserved it. I feel
like, at the very least, William Cepeda should
have at least had a comeback fight to earn the
vacant title match. Lamont Roach fought at 140.
He has not fought for the WBC. At all. He fought
for the interim 140 with Pitbull. Oh, I thought
that was WBA. No, WBC. No. Oh, never mind. I'm
silly. I'm sorry. My bad. My bad. Yeah, WBA strip
tank. That is very awkward. Sorry about that.
That makes more sense now. But what I will say
is it's going to be a good fight that Lamont
Roche should win. That's where I'm landing as
well. The ground roach should be the water roach.
Ground roach? The pit is just a weaker pit bull.
Shrimp. Camaron. It's a little ocean bug. Oh,
man. The thing is, though, I just think roach
has a very judge -unfriendly style. I brought
this up before. You have. Like, he just... He
has to be so... I don't think he has it in him
to be dominant either. I mean, in his last two
fights... I think he can. Like, he wins fights.
He could win fights clearly. It's just that,
like, being that dominant and assertive in order
to, like, very clearly win rounds instead of
stealing them every time is not... It's not his
MO. It takes two rounds to... Two or three rounds
to even... Figure out the opponent. He just kind
of gives away the first couple rounds. Just the
way he looks. You can just feel like. He's edging
the rounds. Instead of. I think where this. This
makes sense. In the Pitbull fight. But where
I think it doesn't. Is against Tank. Where I
think Roach. Absolutely did enough. To clearly
win rounds. but it's Gervonta Davis. You're not
gonna... Yeah, like, I need him steamrolling
guys instead of just, you know, outboxing them.
Clearly to us, with a great view of it, but not
so clearly to... Yeah, to the judges who are
sitting in one spot. Especially if he's a catch
-and -shoot guy. I've always brought up he's
a catch -and -shoot guy. So, if you're watching
this back... If you're watching his back, it
looks like he's getting clubbed. And even if
you have it from the proper angle, he's still
taking one to throw one. So how much do you gauge?
How do you judge your value judgment? A punch
that appears to maybe have glanced past the guard,
but... there's one thrown back. Like, yeah, how
do you... Especially if Roach misses that shot.
Right, right, right. How do you judge the defense
versus an ineffective... Like, technically, Roach
is the one being ineffective here. He got hit
glancingly, barely, but then he missed. He missed
the follow -up. So, from our view, yeah, he's
a more complete boxer here. He's definitely getting
it on the guy, but... So... Like, so what, almost.
Yeah. Hmm. Well, keeping things at 135, this
is... Ring Magazine has sanctioned Caroline Dubois
vs. Terry Harper for the vacant 135 ring title.
This is less about the... the fighters. It's
more about is the ring title a fucking title?
Are we in a fucking five belt era? Have we always
had that plus one? That plus one that just sits
in the background? What the fuck, man? Is ring
magazine, is that a fucking title or is it not?
You want to hear all that chatter? Then you're
going to have to fucking pony up some dough for
it. Because that was a good conversation. Oh,
yeah. Last bit. Tyson Fury versus Arsalanbek
Makhmudov. Oh, we're still in the news. Damn.
Yeah, we are. The undercard has been announced.
Co -main. Conor Benn versus Regis Progray. The
$15 million boy fights at 150 catchweight against
what the fuck Regis Progray. I hope you're getting
paid, buddy. I'm rooting for Regis. I am too.
One last time. I want this to backfire. It'd
be so funny. It'd be too funny, man. Jamie Chikeva
versus Richard Riekpore. the British heavyweight
title on the line. Frazier Clark versus Justice
Hooney, a heavyweight fight. We'll see if Frazier
Clark can replicate the Fabio Wardley success.
Troy Williamson versus Simon Zakenhuber. Brayon
Gorham versus Eduard Georgiev. Mikey Talon versus
Christopher Rios. Felix Cash versus Liam O 'Hare.
Hector Lozano versus Sultan Al -Muhammad. Fucking
Saudi guy. And Elliott Whale versus Tom Hill.
Pretty lackluster undercard. Conor Benn included.
Lackluster. What Shanada and I had talked about
was none of these guys. bringing value to this
event. Anybody who is tuning in to see Tyson
Fury would tune in to watch any of these guys
on their own events. This doesn't really add
anything. There you have it. Anything more for
the news? Alright. Let's see here. Kevin Lorena.
Bridger Waite, if you remember. Lorena, that's
a name I haven't heard in a while. Closer to
beating Daniel Dubois than Anthony Joshua, Kevin
Lorena. It's true. It is. Dubois like Taurus
ACL in that fight. One -legged Dubois. Yeah.

Eye of the Tiger on DAZN. Man, I only kept the
good stuff. And there was actually quite a bit
of it. For an Eye of the Tiger card, not bad.
That's true. This actually wasn't that bad. Not
bad. Steve Claggett gets a big stoppage over
Alejandro Frias. Homeboy came in. Steve Claggett
was TBA less than five days before the event.
So take it with a grain of salt. John Orobio
KO5 over Yomar Alamo. That was fun. uh arobio
is supposed to be like a good prospect um i i
know i've seen him fight a few times but like
you're crushing cans on eye of the tiger dude
um we're gonna have to we're gonna have to step
up the competition here um leonard perez ud over
isaac chalemba robbery i don't watch it robbery
this is an instant instance where i i was uh
like i was talking to you guys before about getting
more active on social media like with scoring
being involved on fight nights this was a case
where i was having good engagement where it was
like leonard perez is supposed to be a super
awesome cruiserweight prospect or whatever how
the fuck are you not finishing isaac chalemba
in 2026 Maybe we need to... Maybe we need to
rethink some things. He's gotta go to Zusa. I
don't know, maybe... Chilumba had the shield
over his face. The liquid shield? The liquid
shield? I don't know, it's hard to knock a guy
out when your punches are slipping off his face.
To be... To be fair, Perez... Was dominant throughout
the entire fight. Chalemba. As they say in Discord.
He has. Experienced being washed. So he has those.
Like those survival tactics. The dirty veteran.
Avoid. Confrontation kind of tactics. So yeah.
That's being fair. To Perez. But. I don't feel
like being fair to Perez. He should have done
better. Yeah, should have. How dare you do that
to my goat, Chalemba? Think about this. A particular
cruiserweight gentleman that we will be discussing
in a moment had a similar situation play out.
Oh, you're right, actually. So maybe we need
to dial it back on the Perez hate. I need to
dial it back. You need to dial it back. I do.
I'm hating for a different reason. Yeah, Goop
Face made it work. Congrats. Whatever gets you
paid, buddy. And minimal damage, too. In the
main event, Stephen Butler knocks out Ramadan
Hiseni in two. That's all she wrote for Eye of
the Tiger. I had said when... We were previewing
this weekend that there was not a lot of boxing
on. And I stand by that. There was some lower
level shit. Which, of course, I didn't update
my doc. Because I'm professional. I'm really
good at this. Did you know that I got a magazine
interview about how professional I am? That's
because you're awesome, dude. Yeah, I'm fucking
excellent. Let's see here. Angel Ureña got a
UD over Roy Casanova. That one was actually pretty
goddamn fun. It was like a crossfade. In the
first six, Ureña was like... the guy, and then
it faded the last six. It was a 10 -round fight.
The one round was a crossfade, and Casanova kind
of stepped it up. It was pretty cool. Good fight.
And Haciel Amador, UD over Pedro Delgado. I think
that was a regional title. Both of those were
regional titles, actually. Moving on. Box Stars
on ESPN KO in Netzahualcoyotl. Look at that.
I'm good at that shit. In Mexico, Mauricio Lara
stops Rafael Rosas in two. Shit was not even
competitive. But it was bronco, so I was here
for it. MF Pro on DAZN. This was in Derby, UK.
Ty Mitchell. I don't know who this fucking guy
is. He's apparently some social media person.
He beat Gabe Rosado in a six -round contest.
Gabe fucking Rosado, guys. Gabe. Rosado. This
was his Misfits debut. It's a separate tab on
BoxRec. It's a separate tab. Misfits Pro, which
is hilarious. Fucking nuts, huh? Yeah. I genuinely
think this might be conspiracy tinfoil shit,
but I think Gabe is being brought in to be beaten
by these guys. He's like Benito Sanchez. Oh,
my God. You're right. The fear of a real pro
fighter, except it's Gabe Rosado. Right. He'll
give you some good work, but you're going to
beat him. All you got to do is just stay confident,
and he will make sure that you stay confident,
because that was a fucking ass fight. I am a
bit ashamed of myself that I watched all six
rounds. You watched it? I did. I did. I wanted
to make sure, like, what is Gabe doing here?
Like, why are you here? Are you here to fucking
knock out these social media kids? Because I'm
down for that. You live by the motherfucking
sword, you die by the motherfucking sword. Yeah,
straight up. That is exactly what is happening.
But enough of that. Sunday, March 8th. Happy
birthday to my sister. Zufa Boxing 4 at the Meta
Apex. There were, moving up from the bottom,
what stood out? The first ever majority draw
on Zufa, Brady Ochoa. How's your name, Ochoa,
but your first name is Brady? Interesting. Pick
a lane, dude. Anyway, Adrian Serrano. And then
there was another majority draw. Jacob Ramos
versus Ethan Perez. Vlad Panin stops Shannard
Bunch in nine. It was... I honestly felt like
they were making excuses for Shannard the whole
time. They were... Man, this... I'm not trying
to knock the guy. I honestly can't imagine. The
difficulties that he had to endure. Like they
were talking about. Like his father was murdered.
And stuff. Like bro. If you. It's clear that
you need more time. And that's okay. You didn't.
Yeah. Just. Go deal with that shit, dude. That's
more important. Moving up, the co -main Ricardo
Salas stops Jesus Saracho in eight. This one
was actually pretty fun. Hmm. Josh, are you prepared?
Do you have... your finest glass of aged haterade
ready oh my god i've had it i have had it because
i've been waiting for saul to get on jai opataya
sorry about that guys ud over brandon glanton
ibf cruiserweight title was not on the line the
zufa cruiser cruiserweight title was on the line
here Josh, kick it off. Dunk on Opitaya as best
you can. Oh my god, he's retarded. In the ring,
out of it? Oh my god. The shit with the IVF.
The IVF was so clear when Zufa showed up. Hey,
if you try and put that piece of shit belt next
to ours, we're gonna strip you. Not necessarily.
It was if you tried to make that piece of shit
more important. than ours yes then it was so
clear and then all the promotion and then like
jai not getting it we're like dude if you're
you're calling the zufa one like your whole promotion's
calling the zufa one the belt the belt the belt
oh yeah the ibf is here too like come on oh yeah
that red fucking thing over there oh yeah like
like yeah no they're gonna strip you you're fighting
a bum They're going to strip you. It's the IDF.
They don't fuck around. They do not. Like, oh,
Glanton was in the top 10. Like, so what? This
isn't the WBC. This isn't the WBC. They're going
to strip you. And then you get in the ring and
just, oh, my God. You don't get them out of there.
You spend the whole time flopping on your ass.
It was just like you wasted the fans' time, you
wasted your own time, and now you're going to
continue begging for fights with belt holders
when you're with the promotional company that
explicitly doesn't deal with the belt orgs. You
lost all your leverage. As a mission statement.
Yeah, he gave up his leverage signing with them.
And, like, the big thing is, like, he got asked
about moving up to heavyweight. And, you know,
historically, cruiserweights, if they are good
enough to go to heavyweight, they do. They kept
saying Usyk, Holyfield, trying to make him be
a part of that conversation. Like, he is, like,
the third in the trio. Like, fuck no. Yeah, but,
like, even if they are not the best at the cruiserweight
division, they move up. So what does it say that
this guy doesn't feel great moving up? I want
to be undisputed. Yeah, like, his big thing is
having a size advantage at cruiserweight, and
if he goes to heavyweight, it vanishes. And he's
not good enough to be able to compete at heavyweight.
No, like, he's not skilled enough. I mean, two
of his, like, slips were footwork mistakes. glanton
did like sure whatever glanton hit him in the
nuts a couple times two of the slips were footwork
mistakes can i so i want to posit something he's
shorter than he's dave allen's height is he for
the record of his size he is dave allen's height
and about half the weight so jesus christ like
he's not cutting it heavyweight if he's tripping
over his own feet pivoting away from brandon
glanton What if Chaya Pattaya, for whatever reason,
just decides he's going to move up? It's really
clear, as you pointed out, he is the same size
as Dave Allen. And if he were to move up that
high, he would just be fat as fuck. What if he
made... Zufa recognized the Bridgerweight division.
Oh my god. I'm crying. I'm crying, dude. That
is crazy. I would send Jai Obataya flowers. Like,
thank you for continuing to fuck up that organization.
He's gotta be doing this on purpose. Yeah, you
have to be. He's wasting the rest of his career
tanking Zufa. He's the sacrificial lamb. I would
set up a Patreon to donate money to him to make
up for his lost wages. Because the big thing
I've seen people, the remote people on Twitter
defending Jai is like, oh, he's making the money
he can because Cruiserweight's a poverty division.
And I'm like, that's why you move up. You move
up if you're good to make the real money. That's
just Cruiserweight. Zerdo Benavidez are getting
paid. Yeah, too. You fight guys that are worth
it or you move up and get paid. Yeah. And then
there's the, oh, he has the heart to hang in
there with anyone. Like, Maris Bredis broke his
jaw twice. They made it very fucking clear. At
the tender age of, hold on, how old is this?
At the tender age of 38 and 39. How old was Zopatai
at the time? Like, 26. I feel bad for him. That's
what I mean. Because it's like, I saw it, like,
again. Like, a lot of the discourse is, we give
Usyk credit for his victory over Bredis, and
I'm like, that was Bredis at, like, that was
Bredis 10 years ago. That was 10 years before.
Are you fucking high? He was 31, and Usyk not
only beat him, he beat Gassiev, he beat Huck,
he beat Michael Hunter, and then moved up and
became the best heavyweight of, like, basically
two generations. He capped it off with Tony fucking
Bell. He became the generation. He became the
generation at heavyweight. Yeah. So what are,
like, so then why are we getting, like, yeah,
then 10 years on, this prime specimen should
roll him, right? Max Kellerman's creaming his
pants at a guy who can't get Morris Bredis, age
30, age 41, out of here. He was creaming his
pants that he went the distance, that he got
his jaw broken and went the distance. I can't
imagine getting punched in the mouth when your
jaw's already broken. But, like, bro, you're
getting your jaw broken by a 40 -year -old man.
And you're supposed to be the best cruiserweight
on the planet. I'm a little confused. Myrus Bredis.
We went through it in Discord. After Usyk. Usyk
Belyu. That was his last fight at Cruiser. And
after that, like, we were tracing the path of
all the titles, and it was Bredis Dortikos was
the reestablishment of the quote -unquote lineage.
Yeah. So, yeah. That fight was not great. No.
Having watched it, having watched it live, that
fight was not great. It was... What? I don't
know. I'm torn on Obataya. Like 90 % of me really
wants to just fucking dunk on him every chance
I get. But another part of me thinks he's a dumb
fuck Islander kid that just came up in Australia.
So he's kind of getting pulled in a lot of different
directions and kind of being taken advantage
of is what I think is happening. Yeah, but part
of it is you have to read. Right. You have to
read. There's a difference between you being
shuffled around in the back, but we can see it,
which means he should obviously be able to see
it and read. All he had to do was say, I'm the
IBF champ. And not, I'm fighting for the prestigious
Zufa belt. The inaugural Zufa belt. So much lineage
there, right? Because you're the lineal champion.
You have to read. You have to read. You have
to know. Get a lawyer, bro. You got money. I
hate the sob stories on Twitter of like, oh,
he's just maximizing his value. You can go to
heavyweight and do that. You can go to heavyweight
and do Lawrence or Coley circuit. The thing is
that it's not like he's boxing AIDS or Coley.
People would show up to watch him beat up on
guys at heavyweight. Did you say boxing AIDS?
Yes. Like a Lawrence Acoli. I got to support
that term. No one wants Acoli. Like Opetiah,
you get the exciting knockout artist who's moving
up the heavyweight. Alleged knockout artist.
He can make good money. If he stayed out of Zufa.
Go to the UK and take out a couple of the domestic
Brits and you have a hype train. He had a title.
And if you want to dispute it, he probably could
have gotten money from fighting Zerto or from
fighting Benavides. Eventually. He could have
gotten money fighting Mikaelian. I'm not even
saying Zerto. Zerto, let's say, okay, Zerto promotional.
He's not a powerhouse. No. But, like, whatever.
Better than Glenn. Let's say. Let's say we're
having issues getting a fight with Zerto. Like,
come on. You can get fights that aren't complete
dog shit. I would like to take a moment to just
give a little high five to Brandon Glanton. Like,
you went the distance with this, uh, the alleged...
Number one cruiserweight fucking of all time
ever. All time great cruiserweight. Fucking greatest
of all cruiserweight times. You went the distance
with him. Yeah, the boogeyman, blah, blah, blah.
You went the distance. I hope you're not locked
in to Zufa because I honestly think he could
pivot this into some decent work. with the other
cruiserweight people. Like, Mikaelian, like,
fuck Mikaelian, but, like, you could... Shit,
dude, you might be able to snag that title off
him. And then Zerto Benavides. Glanton is ranked
in the IBF. And there's no number one or two
contender. It's Chris Billum -Smith and Glanton.
Ah, son of a bitch. Gosh, darn it. Chris Billum
-Smith. He continues to stick around. It could
be worse. It could be the WBC. You've got Mikaelian,
Sislak, and then Roziki at your mandatory spot
there. I would rather be IBF. I'll take the IBF
over that. You could be Jowptown with a fucking
shrink of Zufa. WBA got no one. Getting rid of
fucking your IBF like an idiot. It's just...
Oh my god, guys. Like, we might genuinely see
for the IBF, like, Vidal Riley and Masternack
be elevated to something. Where's Gula Mirian
in WBA right now? Gula Mirian in the WBA? Let
me take a peek. Is the guy that's in WBO? Yeah,
absent. No, okay. Well, look at that. Maybe he
just fucked off after losing to Zero. In absentia.
Right on. Again, cruiserweight is horse shit,
and if you are fucking up title reigns at cruiserweight,
like, there's no hope. That's just how it is.
To reference the two cruiserweights that they
want Opitai to be in the conversation with, Evander
Holyfield dominated, maybe not necessarily undisputed,
but dominated, moved up the heavyweight. Oleksandr
Usyk, undisputed. He beat everyone. Anyone who
was anyone, he beat them. And then he fucked
off the heavyweight. And beat anyone who was
everyone there. Exactly. Same with Holyfield.
He had fucking solid wins as well. For context
with Holyfield, Holyfield's... like, huge war
with Kawi was, first of all, 15 rounds. Christ.
And his jaw was not hanging off. Kawi was known
for his engine, right? Like, this is, like, if
you ever have, like, two hours to just kill,
put on Kawi Holyfield 1. It's 15 rounds of straight
action, and what's crazy is that Holyfield picks
it up by the end. Picks it up? That's it. Last
15 -rounder of... Yeah, last championship 15
-rounder before they changed it. They... Kawi
was known for his engine more than anything at
this time and at this weight class. And Holyfield,
like, scrapes it out with his engine. Crazy.
Out -engines the engine? He then goes apeshit
and knocks everyone out at cruiserweight, including
Kawi in a rematch and Carlos de Leon. And then
moves up. And just knocks guys out until his
hands basically shatter on George Foreman's skull.
But... To show how a dominant cruiserweight should
carry themselves at the division. You're allowed
your hard fight. Usyk had his hard fight with
Bredis and then just washed everyone else. He
had a hard fight with Chizora, to his own admission.
At heavyweight. Yes, at heavy. Yes. Yeah, but,
like, at cruiserweight. For the standard of cruiserweight
champion, like, even, like, David Haye. Like,
let's say David Haye is, like, it's closer to
what Opetai is, but still better. That is a better
analog than Usyk and Holyfield. God, I really
want to smack fucking Kellerman so badly. That's
what I mean. Like, David Haye, you could use
David Haye. Like, they're exciting, vulnerable
guys who, like, They had okay reigns at Cruiserweight
and then moved up. Like, granted, he did pick
up one of the easier world titles ever. But that's
not his fault. One of the easier world titles
that were... It was difficult for him to win
them. Yeah. Like, at Cruiserweight and Heavyweight.
At Heavyweight... Imagine if he fought Evander
Holyfield at heavyweight if Holyfield got the
decision against Beluev. Oh, God, that fucking
Easter Island statue person? Yeah, he was the
guy that Hay beat for a WBA world title at heavyweight.
But the thing is that right before he fought
Hay, he robbed Holyfield. So we actually could
have seen David Haye and Evander Holyfield in
the year 2009. Think about it. You know what?
That makes me depressed to think about. Oh, man.
Some funny shit going on. Anything more for Zufa
Boxing 4? I would say to Zufa, you go to Jaya
Pattaya, but I mean... Come on. I hope somebody
sorts Opetai out. He's probably locked into a
contract at this point. I hope somebody, when
that contract comes to term, I hope somebody
sorts him out and like, hey dude, this is not
the place you want to be. I think it's going
to take a gentle nudge. Because he's... a former
world champion so he's gonna have a little bit
of a big head but still i hope somebody sorts
him out like he he strikes me as kind of dumb
um i that's i'm not trying to be like really
demeaning i'm not trying to be demeaning it's
just like he's not i don't know like he's he's
a little slow uh I kind of feel bad for calling
him an idiot earlier. Yeah, like... No, because,
like, I get it. Hearing him talk, he's obviously
slow, but, like... He's an airhead. There's slow,
but then there's, like, you should, like, read.
You need to read the word. Like, it's not like...
Back in the day, like, Don King had to, like,
hide this shit in the fine print. There should
be... And Don King was better at this shit. He
had to hide it in the fine print here. Like,
the fighter can read it. He's just choosing not
to. There should be a level of self -awareness
when you're... You should know, like, I'm a bit
of a fucking airhead. Maybe I should get somebody
who does this for a living to look at this for
me. Somebody who's like... They are paid to keep
my best interest in mind. But what are we going
to do? Opitaya, buddy, you want me to read your
contract? You let me know. We'll manage you,
bro. What's the Reddit acronym? I, anal. I am
not a lawyer. I'm not a lawyer. I'm not a lawyer.

Nobody on here of note other than Mickey Conlon
in the main event. I almost didn't include him
in this. Saturday, March 21st. Matchroom at the
Copper Box. Motherfucking... Similar situation.
Not a whole lot of people. This is like a Lin
card. Yeah. George Ladard vs. Tyler Denny. I
think the British middleweight title is on the
line here. So, that's fine. Sure. Yeah, whatever.
Man, we got one and a half title fights this
weekend. I haven't checked. There's probably
more fights on the bill. But Probox TV in San
Bernardino, California. Co -main Joshua Kevin
Anton. versus Kudratilo Abdukakarov. Excellent.
And in the main event, Lester Martinez versus
Emmanuel Alim for the interim WBC super middleweight
title. Lester, my man, you got done dirty. There
is no situation where Christian Mbili gets elevated
to full title list. Without having had to face
you again. This is a situation I said before
where interim WBC titles are where championship
dreams go to die. I don't think Lester's going
to get the fight again. I really don't. And Lester,
I fully believe with all of my heart that he
would win the rematch. God damn it. It sold out.
I didn't know this year was in San Bernardino.
Maybe if you check the calendar, you would have
known about it weeks ago. No, I didn't know it
was in San Bernardino, though. I knew the fight
was happening, but I didn't know it was in San
Bernardino. As I said, if you check the calendar,
you would have. But that's neither here nor there.
Sorry, Saul. Yeah, that's on you. It's okay,
though. We'll get to watch it together and enjoy.
Facts. Last one. Matchroom on DAZN at the Caribe
Royale in Orlando, Florida. Let's see. Moving
up the bill. Entrevious Ingram just has a fucking
excellent name. I just wanted to say it. Up the
bill, Terra Moana. I haven't checked if he has
an opponent yet. Chances are, like, this far
out, if he doesn't have an opponent, it's not
going to be anybody, like, worthwhile. And Terra
Moana's still in his, like, can -crushing phase
of his career. So, c 'est la vie. Yoannis Taiz
versus Myles Micelle. Taez is the dude that got
beat by Abbas Baru. So that's fun. Omari Jones
is back. Quick turnaround. Versus Christian Gomez.
And headlining Carlos Adamas, the WBC middleweight
champion, versus Austin Williams. Third round.
ranked contender. I refuse to call him Tiger.
He is Ammo. But that's it. That's all we got
on the calendar. For this week, anyway. Sure.
You know what we're getting close to? Fucking
Chisora Wilder. Chisora Wilder and Gangbusters.
Wardley Dubois. Holy shit, dude. That is coming
up, too. May 9th. We'll get there. Anyway, Nagatani.
Holy shit. And Zerto Benavidez. May is going
to be real good. We just got to suffer the next
bit. Bro, this night of suffering is easy, dude.
Last year was way worse. Yeah, I was going to
say, last year was fucking dog shit, so I'm happy
here. You're right. We've got some nibbles as
we lead up to the bigger dishes, so we're good.
We're good. I think we're sitting pretty. Let's
see. So, we are going into Adamus Ammo Weekend.
Parting words. Let's go, Carlos Adamus. Go, Adamus.
Jayo Pataya. You know what? Jao Pataya undisputed
before virtual world title. Go fuck yourself.
How bad would that be? Undisputed Zufa champion,
maybe? Yeah, true. Zufa title. You know, maybe
the Zufa title, I'd be less mad at it if it didn't
look ugly as shit. I'd be less mad if they didn't
call fucking Zufa. That's true. It's tacky. It's
so tacky. Imagine they called it a TKO belt.
Like UFC is ultimate fighting championship. The
belt is gold and black. It's cool as fuck. Like
you call it Zufa and it looks like a watch. Yeah,
Casio watch, right? Yeah. Zufa, yeah. What the
fuck even is Zufa? It has the color palette of
my calculator and it says Zufa on it. I don't
fucking want that. I don't even want to look
at it. I want to fight for the Zufa belt when
I grow up. The WBC looks cool. That's like the
number one reason why it's more legitimized.
Because it's cool as fuck. The Zufa belt is silver
and black and it's tacky. Looks like it was made
out of plastic. It does look like it's made out
of plastic. The WBC does what they also do which
I really like is the commemorative designs. Yes.
Like the British one when Tyson Fury beat Dillian
White. Yeah. I'm not British. That was a fucking
cool ass belt. The Floyd Mayweather versus Conor
McGregor, the money belt. The money belt. I'm
looking it up right now. That's the one I was
thinking of. Yeah, the diamond encrusted belt.
Diamond encrusted, made of gator skin. Are you
fucking kidding me, dude? And it was gold, like
legit gold. No, I know. The IBF uses gold in
their belts, and it's cool. Zufa is fucking dick
and balls. It looks off. And Saul, I think a
big one is the name. You could have called this
anything. Anything. Yeah, just the fact that
it says Zufa on it makes it ten times worse.
Yeah. Because of UBC. I would fucking like it
like that. Anything, dude. If you look at the
UFC belt, it's gold. It says UFC on it. It's
black and gold. It looks pretty cool. There's
already a UBC, by the way. It's the Ultimate
Fighting Championship. Universal Boxing Council.
Look that one up. Just come up with something
that isn't. Zufa. Zufa is so stupid. You can
make an acronym. Like, if you want to be super
corny 2010's edgelord, you can call it the war
belt and come up with an acronym for war. Extreme
KO belt. Yeah. XKO. XKO is fine. That's pretty
dope. TKO. That's the parent company. TKO. TKO
is cool. Or you could just call it the KO belt.
You know, they could call the WBC the World Boxing
Congress. They could just do anything except
Zufa. They could call the ZBC and call Zufa Zufa
Boxing Champion. It would look fucking so much
better than ZBC. I thought you said Z -B -Z like
Zufa Boxing Zoo. That's what I thought. I don't
know why I thought you said that. What is a fucking
zoo? They're a bunch of fucking animals. Fuck.
All right. So is that what we got for parting
words? Zufa fucking sucks. Yes. All right. Cool.
That is it for this edition of the Boxing B -Sides.
Holy shit. We will see you on the other side.
Adamus, Ammo, who will be the fucking middleweight
champion? We will find out. See you on the other
side.
