UK boxing news round up.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Any news on Lerrone Richards and Martin Bakole? Both coming off solid wins and heard nothing since then.

Richards is currently a free agent, his deal with Matchroom has expired. I suspect Queensberry is his likely destination as they have Parker, Clarke, Heffron etc as potential opponents. Boxxer would maybe sign him too but they don’t exactly have many super middleweights on the roster.

I’m hoping Bakole winds up getting a big fight with Fury, AJ, Dubois, Whyte etc all needing Dance partners. He’s probably waiting it out hoping the phone rings.

Cheers mate.

Richards is very talented, hoping he's not being put on the shelf because of his style.
The pasting Bakole gave Yoka in his hometown made my day. I hope he gets a good fight next.

Boxing is a mess right now, most fighters are nowhere near as active as they should be, a lot of them against their will.

Richards is in a tough spot because he’s difficult to look good against and doesn’t sell tickets. He’s the type of fighter who’s gonna need to become a mandatory to get a big fight.

Ideally, I’d like to see him face Parker or Ryder. Wouldn’t mind a Clarke rematch too as I felt that was really close.

I prefer Chisora over Charr. But still piss poor.

I’d probably rather Charr but it’s not much of a choice. Neither fight is competitive and I really don’t wanna see Del Boy take another unnecessary beating.

The worst thing is, if they could afford Chisora, they definitely could have afforded Bakole, Hunter, Wallin etc and several other better options within the top 15.

Chris Billam-Smith signing with Boxxer/Sky.

Some good fights to be made, Riakporhe rematch I’d like to see.

The first fight was really ****ty lol

The first fight was really ****ty lol

They were both 9 fight novices back then. Both are top 10 contenders now. I think it’s the fight to make if neither can secure a title shot.

Joyce-Parker could get pushed back from July to September. Frank is still planning a July show in London that will feature the return of Anthony Yarde.

Chisora vs Kownacki is on the table for July 9th. Chisora has signed. Matchroom are waiting on a signature from Kownacki.

Unsure what’s happening with Hughie Fury vs Hunter, deal has reportedly been agreed but still no date or venue announced. July 16th in London was previously rumoured.

Maxi Hughes and Kid Galahad are in talks for a fight later this year at 135 lbs.

Josh Kelly will be added to the Wasserman card in Liverpool on June 17th. Opponent TBA.

Probellum have become increasingly quiet. Their last UK show was April and they have nothing announced throughout the summer yet. Their TV deal with Eurosport has also been nixed. Growing concerns amongst many of their fighters.

Outside of Fury & Usyk…who cares…………….
