Heavy rumors: Wilder undercard, WBO title for Joyce and Parker, White-Dubois fight

Reviewer
Salvador Rodriguez shared an insider on what two more fights will take place on October 15 in Brooklyn (New York, USA) as an opening act for heavyweights Deontay Wilder and Robert Helenius.

According to him, within the framework of the show, the IBF super lightweight champion (up to 63.5 kg) will be determined: Jeremias Ponce (30-0, 20 KOs) from Argentina and Subriel Matias (18-1, 18 KOs) from Puerto – Rico. Another undercard fight is a bantamweight rematch (up to 53.5 kg) between American Gary Antonio Russell (19-0, 12 KOs) and Puerto Rican ex-champion Emmanuel Rodriguez (20-2, 13 KOs). Their first full-time duel ended without a result.

It is already officially known that within the framework of the show, two American ex-world champions in the second middleweight (up to 76.2 kg) will meet in a full-time fight – Caleb Plant (21-1, 12 KOs) will fight with Anthony Dirrell (34-2-2 , 25 KOs).

WBO unexpectedly confirmed the rumors that have been circulating on the sidelines for a long time: on September 24 in Manchester (UK), heavyweights Joe Joyce (14-0, 13 KOs) from the UK and Joseph Parker (30-2, 21 KOs) from New Zealand will determine the owner of the “temporary” division title. The organization confirmed the request of the promoters of fighters – companies boxer (Parker) and queensberry promotions (Joyce).

Reviewers are extremely unhappy with this decision. There is no logic in it, since less than two weeks have passed since the holder of a full-fledged belt of the organization (as well as the WBA Super and IBF titles), Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk, beat Briton Anthony Joshua in a rematch, defending the title.


And on the sidelines, they say that on November 26 in London (England), local WBA World heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois (18-1, 17 KOs) will meet his compatriot and former challenger Dillian Whyte (28-3, 19 KOs) in his debut defense. .

With a high degree of probability, another entertaining heavyweight fight will take place as part of the show – two fighters who previously came across illegal drugs will fight. We are talking about a duel between American Jarrell Miller (25-0-1, 21 KOs) and age Australian Lucas Brown (31-3, 27 KOs).

Ben Damon argues that the whole question is whether the doping recidivist Miller will be allowed to box in Britain. If the answer is no, then this fight will take place a little earlier – on November 13 in Abu Dhabi (UAE).

In June, Brown became the author of a huge sensation from Australia: he knocked out Prospect Fa. We have video. A month later, doping recidivist Miller knocked out Cardenas: there is also a video. Rumor has it he scammed promoter Eddie Hearn for money.
