The big one is nearly here. Two of the greatest fighters of this generation going toe-to-toe in Sin City in their bid to go down in the history books as one of the sports greats. 

It’s the fight that many believed we would never see and many believed was impossible to make. Two pound-for-pound generational greats putting it all on the line in their bid to be the undisputed super-middleweight champion of the world.

With the end of 2025 getting closer by the day and promoters’ schedules starting to get finalised for the end of the year, we’ve picked out six fights across four weight classes that we would like to see before the turn of the year.

Ahead of last Saturday night, much of the talk centred on whether the 20-year-old heavyweight sensation Moses Itauma has what it takes to become a heavyweight great. Dillian Whyte was seen as a step up in opposition — arguably the first fighter Itauma had faced who posed a real threat to him. However, in less than 120 seconds, Itauma silenced any doubters who suggested he wasn’t ready for an opponent like Whyte. First-round knockout. Job done.

When it comes to boxing, a crossroads fight is often a vital part of not one but two fighters’ careers. One fighter is usually on the up with a huge future ahead of them, while the other faces the bleak prospect of potential retirement if they lose.

In terms of a random weekend of boxing action, it really doesn’t get much more random – but as randomly exciting – as this one. A super-middleweight ‘interim’ world title fight on Friday, followed by the return of a former heavyweight world champ. Then on Saturday, probably the best fight of the weekend in an all-British European title clash – and Jake Paul headlining a card that features a cruiserweight unification clash against another former world champ.

Five shows from five different cities across three days — big-time boxing is well and truly back this weekend. We’ll be taking a look at all of the major fights over the next few days, starting off in Newcastle, where the exciting super-welterweight Josh Kelly will be looking to take one step closer to a world title shot against Flavius Biea.

There’s only one Brit who has been undisputed world champion in the four-belt era, and that man is Prestonpans’ very own Josh Taylor. This week, he returns to the home of some of his greatest triumphs when he faces Ekow Essuman at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow.

When there’s high demand for a rematch in boxing, it usually means that the first fight was close or controversial. In this case, it’s both, as Johnny Fisher looks to make it back-to-back victories over Dave Allen — but this time in much more convincing style.

There was a time when referees were barely noticed. Silent guardians in the background, only stepping in when absolutely necessary. But in 2025, they’ve become central characters—praised for their protection, criticised for their caution, and, at times, blamed for ruining the show. And after last weekend, the spotlight on the referee has never burned brighter.

Boxing is a sport built on moments—the knockouts that make headlines, the wars that turn unknown fighters into overnight stars. But while those moments are celebrated by fans, the fighters delivering them often leave with little more than a handshake and a pat on the back. Meanwhile, in MMA, standout performances don’t just earn applause—they earn cash.

Boxing is a sport built on preparation. Fighters spend months in training camp, fine-tuning their skills, sharpening their strategy, and peaking at just the right time. But what happens when all of that is thrown out the window? Short-notice fights have long been a staple of boxing’s unpredictable nature, but are they a genuine opportunity for fighters looking to break through, or just a brutal form of exploitation that stacks the deck against them?

Billed as ‘The Greatest Card in Boxing History’ by many, Saturday’s The Last Crescendo card in Riyadh very much lived up to the expectation in a thrilling night of boxing action. We’ll be taking a look at the winners and losers following a huge night of boxing that has changed the landscape of the sport.

Turki Alalshikh has done it again, and this time, he’s done it bigger and better than ever. On Monday night, the Feb. 22 card in Riyadh was finally announced, with the highly anticipated rematch between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol for the undisputed light-heavyweight championship topping a bill that has a world title on the line in EVERY fight—quite something We’ll be taking a look at each fight as we look ahead to one of, if not THE, greatest card in the history of boxing.

2007… The year that was better known for the outbreak of Bird Flu and Gordon Brown becoming Prime Minster. It was also the year when a future British boxing legend made his debut in the pro ranks. 

Let’s shake up the boxing world with an idea that’ll either make you cheer or cringe—a fighter draft system. Imagine this: top amateur talent getting picked by promotions in a dramatic draft event, much like the NFL. Fighters would be evenly distributed, ensuring no single promotion hoards all the star power. Sounds exciting, doesn’t it? But here’s the big question: could it work in a sport as fiercely individualistic as boxing?

Let’s get one thing straight—the heavyweight division is the shiny centerpiece of boxing. The marquee act. The division that puts bums on seats and draws eyes to screens. Ali, Tyson, Holyfield, Lewis, Fury—just say the names and even non-fans perk up. Heavyweights are the blockbuster movies of boxing: big, bold, and bankable.

Boxing is booming already in 2025, and the year is barely a couple of weeks old. With superfights such as Eubank Jr vs Benn and Garcia vs Haney both pretty much announced, we’ve picked out five weight classes that could host some of the biggest and most exciting bouts over the next 12 months. Where better to start than with the big boys?

The walkout. It’s the moment a fighter steps into the spotlight, leaving the comfort of the dressing room and entering the cauldron of noise, expectation, and pressure. More than just an entrance, it’s a spectacle, a psychological statement, and a chance to seize control before the first punch is thrown.

In the electrifying world of boxing, few phrases are as polarising as “lucky punch.” It’s the ultimate insult to a knockout artist, dismissing their victory as the result of random chance rather than skill, timing, or preparation. But is the lucky punch a real phenomenon? Or is it a convenient excuse, wielded by fans and fighters alike to discredit a defeat or diminish a victory? Let’s explore whether luck truly has a place in a sport built on precision, discipline, and strategy.
