Ringside here and can still visualise the flying stool and mayhem afterwards. Tszyu looked pedestrian in the media workout and was the expected fall guy, but derailed the Judah hype train in spectacular fashion. Zab regrouped well to win belts at 140 (twice) and 147

This card brings back memories of Azumah Nelson, Ike Quartey, Alfred Kotey and Joshua Clottey. Agro in Accra, Drama in Ghana, I'm all for it πŸ‡¬πŸ‡­

The upshot is Davis holds one victory in 2.5 years and has now missed out on an extremely well-paid novelty fight. His biggest challenge remains outside of the ring. Hype can't fight for you.

Bowe is one of the heavyweight division's great enigmas. Two-time belt holder, legacy wins over Holyfield, yet one felt the ceiling was so much higher. But I'll always mischievously love the pure s***housery of the two Golota fights - absolute mayhem in a prize ring.

The names of George Foreman and Muhammad Ali are forever entwined. And, like Ali before him, Foreman's career had a second incarnation and this was the exclamation point. The thud and wonder of when that right hand landed will echo forever in heavyweight history.

Proud to have written the cover story in this week's Boxing News. A four-page feature on the 154lbs super-welterweight division and why it might just be the best in boxing.

Some say Tenshin's star power rivals Naoya Inoue in Japan. He guns for his first world title against Naoya's little brother later this month.

Mark Butcher Tenshin's biggest Kickboxing fight did a $25mil gate at the Tokyo Dome and did 500k PPVs generating $37mil (albeit against another huge name) The biggest fight in Japanese boxing history has always been Inoue vs Tenshin. Not Nakatani unfortunately. Big business

Tenshin is more popular, it’s kinda crazy tbh. He goes on & faces real guys/wins belts & hes going to exceed the amount of $ Inoue is generating β€” which is already insane for those weights.

40 years ago, Mark Kaylor defeated Errol Christie by KO in round 8 of 12 to improve his record to 30-3 (25 KOs). Both fighters knocked down multiple times, one of the greatest British fights of all time.

Following the Tenshin talk yesterday, I discovered my 'five Asian fighters to watch' piece from 2016. Four became world champions - Magsayo, Higa, Takuma Inoue and Murata - with Iwan Zoda being the leftfield pick that didn't asiatimes.com/2016/12/five-r…

Boxing and batshit crazy moments walk hand-in-hand, but the fan man descending into the ring during Bowe-Holyfield II is hard to beat. The wild-eyed ring invader wearing wrestling pants during Zarate-Zamora may just do it
