ROSADO MOVES ON
AT MIDDLEWEIGHT AGAINST LOVE 

After being turned back in his first title challenge against Gennady Golovkin, North Philly's Gabriel Rosado, 21-6, 13 KOs, planned to return to 154 pounds and resume his assault on the junior middleweight division, where all of his previous fights had taken place. 

But in boxing, things don't always play out the way you plan. 

With all of the major 154-pound stars tied up with other bouts, Rosado accepted a fight with middleweight J'Leon Love, 15-0, 8 KOs, for his next assignment.  Rosado and Love face off Saturday night in Las Vegas as part of the big Floyd... (MORE)

    

 
                 
 

   

GARCIA DEFENDS TITLE AGAINST JUDAH

Danny Garcia defeated Zab Judah by close unanimous decision to defend his junior welterweight titles Saturday night in Judah's hometown of Brooklyn, NY. The fight was a terrific battle with both fighters landing freely throughout the contest. Garcia dominated early, and floored Judah in round eight, but the native New Yorker staged a brilliant comeback down the stretch. Judah's late heroics gave the fight a great final act, sternly tested Garcia's mettle, and brought the scores rather close on the official cards.

In the end, Garcia kept his collection of title belts (WBC, WBA, Ring Magazine) and remained undefeated at 26-0, 16 KOs. Judah, 42-8, 29 KOs, a former... (MORE)

    

 
                 
 

   

OCASIO IS A NO SHOW
FOR PHILLY MAIN EVENT 

Angel Ocasio was a no show for his scheduled 8-round main event with Ryan Belasco Friday night at the National Guard Armory in Northeast Philadelphia.  Ocasio, 7-0-2, 2 KOs, made weight Friday morning and ultimately passed his PA Commission medical tests, although it was reported that he originally had an accelerated heart rate. 

After Ocasio was cleared by PA Commission doctors, the USBC lightweight title bout was expected to proceed as planned. However, Ocasio never came to the arena, deciding instead to bail out of his main event bout...         (MORE)

FURY
KNOCKS OUT CUNNINGHAM

Heavyweight giant Tyson Fury came off the floor in the second round to score a knockout of Steve Cunningham in round seven on Saturday afternoon at the Theater at Madison Square Garden. It was a gritty heavyweight grudge match full of action, excitement, high stakes, and the all of the ill will that began brewing at the first press conference to announce the fight.

Fury enjoyed size advantages that measured 6 inches of height and 44 pounds of weight, and the colossal contender used every extra inch and ounce to his advantage. (MORE)

    

 

  
                 
       

GARCIA MUST TACKLE JUDAH
TO CONTINUE LIVING HIS DREAM

Junior welterweight champion Danny "Swift" Garcia, 25-0, 16 KOs, has been a world champion for a little more than one year now.  He took his first share of the title in March 2012 by defeating legend Erik Morales, and saw his life permanently change as a result. 

In beating Morales, Garcia achieved the dream he had set for himself many, many years before when he was a skinny little amateur boxer working hard at the... (MORE)

    








 		  
                 
       

CAPUTO SMITH PRESSURES HIS WAY
TO PA STATE TITLE

Anthony Caputo Smith beat the odds and expectations that were against him in his 10-round main event with slick Dhafir Smith in a fight for the PA state light heavyweight title.  Going into the bout, few gave Anthony, a KO victim in his last start, much of a chance against the seasoned Dhafir, but the Kennett Square scrapper came to fight and brought a ballroom full of fans along with him.  After the 10 rounds were over, some ringsiders wondered if he had also brought the judges with him as well. 

Caputo Smith won the verdict on two of the three official cards, while one judge scored the fight a draw.  Therefore Caputo came away with the win and... (MORE)
