Lagtest News & Updxates: Manny Pacquiao gives his verdict on Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford fight and sends a message to the American boxer

For an eight-division boxing champion like Manny Pacquiao, he can comment on any topic he wants. On this occasion, the issue that has caused a stir is about the fight between Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Terence Crawford, which will undergo changes of venue and date, but not of protagonists

During his visit to Los Angeles, a possible venue for the fight between the Mexican and the Briton, Manny Pacquiao, 46 years old, is preparing for his fight against welterweight champion Mario Barrios on July 19, in his return to the ring after four years of absence. However, local reporters took advantage of his presence to ask him his opinion about the fight between Canelo vs Crawford.

The British boxer will have to gain around 12.5 pounds to face Canelo Alvarez, so Pacman was asked for some advice for Crawford to reach the weight without setbacks, remembering that the Filipino champion did it on several occasions to dominate eight different categories

was Manny’s quick response, before embarking on his preparation and promotional activities.

However, does Manny Pacquiao look favorably on the fight between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford? With another quick response, the multi-champion replied with thumbs up:

where he does not seem to be displeased with this confrontation after the questions that the Mexican monarch has received about his lack of physical condition and his fights that generate a lot of money, but little sporting spectacle.

The British boxer will move up two divisions for his fight against the Mexican. Many analysts seem to be unsure about the direction of the fight. Especially after the showdown in Riyadh, doubts about Canelo’s physical superiority also diminished.

However, Manny Pacquiao’s quick responses are in favor of this fight or he opted for a safer bet. Canelo Alvarez is the super middleweight king. Crawford enters his lair to claim the crown. The Mexican, with 67 fights under his belt, is one of the most successful executioners of British fighters. It is expected that both fighters can give the sport a touch of greatness, something that has been diluted in recent years.

Tyson Fury Rematch Update: Jake Paul slid into Tyson Fury’s direct messages recently to attempt to make a rematch with his brother Tommy.

Tyson Fury, The former Love Island star remains the only man to have beaten Paul during a fledgling 11-1 professional boxing career.

Since then, Paul has won five fights on the bounce and is set to square off against former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr on June 28 in Anaheim.

Tyson Fury has been far less active, with two fights in the same timespan after undergoing surgery on a recurring hand injury.

He returned to the ring for the first time in almost two years to beat 5-2 Bosnian pro Kenan Hanjalic earlier this month and called out Paul in the immediate aftermath.

“Jake Paul’s a b**** and he’s running scared,” he bellowed. “Jake, the hand’s fixed now, baby. The hand’s fixed.

“I fought a guy in here tonight who’s had over 100 amateur fights and is experienced as hell, and he’s as tough as teak.

“If Jake Paul wants to step inside this ring, I guarantee you next time I’ll knock you spark out.”

However, ‘The Problem Child’ wasn’t deterred by the rejection and is still pursuing the rematch, with the help of Tommy’s brother Tyson.

‘I’ve Got More in 5 Fights’ A UFC icon celebrated a big win, but didn’t hold back when firing at Claressa Shields online

Claressa Shields has carved out a legendary path in the world of boxing. Undefeated with a 16-0 record, she’s a multi-division world champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist. Despite her dominance in the ring, she’s often drawn criticism for her knockout ratio—just three of her sixteen wins have come by stoppage. And now, one UFC icon who fought last night had some choice words about that—sparking a fresh round of drama that could shake up the entire combat sports world.

Cris Cyborg, fresh off a first-round TKO win over Precious Harris-McCray at Fight Night 3 in San Jose, took to social media and threw verbal jabs at Claressa Shields. The tweet was blunt: ‘Only 5 boxing fights but I’ve already got more KO’s than @Claressashields’. That post alone made waves—but the context behind it makes it even louder.

British heavyweights Anthony Joshua Perfectly Sums Up Dave Allen’s Brutal Knockout Win Over Johnny Fisher

Anthony Joshua has praised Dave Allen in the wake of his knockout win over Johnny Fisher.

The two British heavyweights met in a necessary rematch after first fighting the ten round distance in December last year. Though Fisher controlled the opening rounds in their initial bout, Allen turned the tide in the fifth with a knockdown and came on strong thereafter, with the Romford man doing well to survive

It was a split decision in favour of Fisher, a highly controversial outcome given most felt Allen had scored one of the biggest wins of his career. In the rematch this weekend, he left no doubt. Though likely down on the cards again, it was the fifth once more in which Allen took advantage of a tiring Fisher to unleash his best shots.

He dropped the younger man once and finished him off with a devastating combination as the bell went, handing Fisher his first loss.

World champion who “I’m Leaning Towards Him” Amir Khan Predicts Anthony Joshua vs Deontay Wilder

Anthony Joshua versus Deontay Wilder is a heavyweight showdown many would like to see, including Amir Khan.

Both of these men are now in the later stages of their careers. Joshua is a former two-time world champion who had plenty of huge nights on his way to becoming a three-belt unified ruler. He beat the likes of Wladimir Klitschko, Kubrat Pulev, Dillian Whyte, and although he lost to Andy Ruiz Jr, he avenged the loss six months later

It was soon to be undisputed champion Oleksandr Usyk who dethroned him and then beat him again in a rematch across 2021 and 2022, and when Joshua tried to win the IBF belt back against Daniel Dubois last September, he was stopped inside five.

However, the last few years of his career have been marked by defeats.

Losses to Tyson Fury are acceptable, but his last two contests have seen him knocked out by Zhang and Joseph Parker.

But at the age of 39, he’s stepping back into the ring as he looks to rebuild his reputation.

Wilder vs Herndon: What has been said?

As long as Wilder wins, he has plans for some big fights.

One particular fight he has in mind is against Jarrell Miller.

The American duo have exchanged plenty of barbs in the past, and Wilder would love to face him in the ring.

Speaking to Bloody Elbow, he said: “I don’t like him at all. I ain’t gonna say too many things, but this dude has always been a hater. He’s always trying to do things or say stupid shit.

“If that time comes and the money is right for that situation, I would love to put him down.

“Like I told him, h better go get that grave plot paid for by the time I get him because I ain’t playing.”

Anthony Joshua would also like a crack at Wilder, though he admitted his body is struggling at the moment.

He said: “I think a potential fight with Martin Bakole, Agit Kabayel or Deontay Wilder would work.”

Then on his physical state, he said: “My body has been through the works.

“Sooner than later. I’m still training but I’m just kind of rebuilding.

“To be good is not enough in boxing, if you want to be a world champion you’ve got to be great

“Throughout the last year or so, especially my last fight I was good but not great.

“It’s a serious investment” – British-Nigerian boxer Anthony Joshua eyes Watford takeover

British-Nigerian boxing star Anthony Joshua is weighing up a potential investment in EFL Championship side Watford FC — the club from his hometown, Soccernet.ng reports.

The former unified heavyweight champion, who was born and raised in Watford and still lives in the area, is reportedly exploring an opportunity to take a financial stake in the club.

At 35, Joshua has already carved out a highly successful boxing career — Olympic gold in 2012 and multiple world titles in the professional ranks — earning an estimated $110 million in the process.

Speaking to Seconds Out, Joshua explained his motivation to invest strategically rather than spend frivolously — and revealed that Watford FC has emerged as a serious option.

“It’s a serious investment” – British-Nigerian boxer Anthony Joshua eyes Watford takeover

“We wanted to move into private equity, venture capital funds,” Joshua told Seconds Out, via TalkSport.

“As you earn, naturally you want to save, so rather than me spending recklessly I’m trying to invest money into certain asset classes — and that [Watford] was an opportunity that presented itself.”

“His Time Is Done”: British Heavyweight Vows To Beat Anthony Joshua Worse

“His Time Is Done”: British Heavyweight Vows To Beat Anthony Joshua Worse Than Dubois Did

One British heavyweight has claimed that Anthony Joshua‘s career is almost over and that he will beat him in more impressive fashion than Daniel Dubois.

Dubois stopped Joshua inside five rounds back in September 2024. It was the most impressive night of the young IBF champion’s career after two previous knockout wins over Filip Hrgovic and Jarrell Miller, and it marked one of the worst nights in the ring for Joshua

He was also put down hard in the first round and never looked like becoming a three-time world champion. It was the fourth loss of his career following an upset stoppage loss to Andy Ruiz Jr in June 2019, which he avenged with a wide points win in December that year, and two points losses to Oleksandr Usyk in 2021 and 2022.

Joshua is out recovering from injury, but insists he will be back for one final run in the ring, but a British heavyweight rival has lashed out at ‘AJ.’

That is Hughie Fury, who believes he’s put himself in the frame for a fight with Joshua. Fury has had 33 fights, won 30 and lost 3 to Joseph Parker, Alexandr Pvetkin and Kubrat Pulev. Last time out in early April, he beat Dan Garber by fifth round KO.
