The Lukie Boxing Podcast

An action-packed weekend of fights leave us with a lot to talk about. For starters, Vergil Ortiz won a majority decision over Serhii Bohachuk, was it a good decision, we discuss. Also, Charles Conwell, Kenny Sims Jr., Gabriela Fundora and Cecilia Braekhus fought on the undercard – and Fresno's own Jordan Fuentes had a weird fight with James Mulder – details in the podcast.
On ESPN, Angelo Leo became the new IBF featherweight titleholder knocking out Luis Alberto Lopez in the tenth round. What should we know about both. Junior welterweight Lindolfo Delgado won a split-decision over Bryan Flores...the bizarre case around Abraham Perez not being able to fight, Albert "Chop Chop" Gonzalez might be a capital G Guy and Alan "Kid Kansas" Garcia wins another fight.
Also, a new IBF flyweight champion Angel Ayala won the vacant title.
We have a sleep weekend of boxing for a bit now...This weekend has one major card that will be headlined by super middleweight Christian Mbilli vs. Sergiy Derevyanchenko. Also on the card, a heavyweight fight between
Arslanbek Makhmudov vs. Guido Vianello, a super middleweight fight between Osleys Iglesias vs. Sena Agbeko, rising lightweight star Abdullah Mason vs. Mike Ohan Jr., and middleweight Jahi Tucker vs. Santiago Fernandez

Thoughts on the Olympic with Cain Bradley, a boxing expert who has a great website olympicshub.co.uk

Join us for a deep dive into the world of boxing on our live show, where we analyze the major matchups and headline-grabbing events from across the globe, as Lukie and Dakota ramble on.
First, we discuss Artur Beterbiev’s controversial victory over Dmitry Bivol to become the undisputed light heavyweight champion. The fight was a tactical masterclass but left fans divided, with some comparing it to classic bouts like Leonard vs. Hagler, while others felt it lacked the thrill of an all-out war. Did it live up to the hype, or will this bout be more debated than celebrated?
We also look ahead to junior middleweight Tim Tszyu’s highly anticipated title fight this Saturday, live on Amazon Prime, where he looks to cement his place among the world’s top junior middleweights. Will Tszyu continue his rise, or will his opponent and IBF titleholder Bakhram Murtazaliev, spoil the party?
In addition, we highlight Fabio Wardley’s explosive first-round knockout of Frazer Clarke, which sent shockwaves through the heavyweight division. With talks of Wardley taking on names like Otto Wallin or Jamaine Franklin, is he destined for a major title shot soon?
Chris Eubank Jr.'s knockout win over Kamil Szeremeta and his escalating feud with Conor Benn is another hot topic. Is this grudge match the next big showdown in British boxing, or just another flashy sequel in the making?
Next, we cover the ongoing rise of Ben Whittaker, who faced unexpected adversity against Liam Cameron, ending in a technical draw after a dramatic tumble over the ropes. Will Whittaker bounce back stronger, or is this a sign of more challenges ahead?
We then shift focus to Japan's thriving boxing scene, where major upsets and knockouts stole the spotlight. Masamichi Yabuki’s stunning knockout of Sivenathi Nontshinga for the IBF junior flyweight title and Seiya Tsutsumi’s upset win over Takuma Inoue are just some of the highlights. Plus, Kenshiro Teraji’s 11th-round KO of Cristofer Rosales showcased his all-action style, while Junto Nakatani’s dominant win solidified his status as Japan’s next rising star.
Join us as we break down all these fights and more, offering expert analysis, predictions, and debates on the biggest moments in boxing. Don’t miss out on the hottest discussions in the sport!
