Davis allegedly has an offer for $5M, we don't know what DAZN is offering Farmer for the fight

Right I just made the assumption based on him saying 2M is a non starter, I guess their offer was better that’s why he’s saying it.
That 2 would be around 28% of the split had Davis got offered 5 millions. Doubt that he wouldn’t have more %.

Lennox is a clown... I don't respect Lennox': Anthony Joshua hits back at criticism from legend Lewis after shock defeat by Andy Ruiz Jr


Anthony Joshua has labelled Lennox Lewis 'a clown' after he criticised his preparation for this summer's shock defeat by Andy Ruiz Jr in New York.

Lewis is Britain's last undisputed heavyweight champion, and tweeted after Joshua's total knockout loss: 'I can't look at that fight and agree that AJ was fully prepared'.


Lennox is a clown. I don't respect Lennox,' Joshua said on Sky Sports documentary AJ: The Untold Truth.

'Me and Lennox are not the same. My legacy is to sit back and enjoy the younger generation coming up, and not to be involved. Just to appreciate what it takes to get there.

'Lennox isn't like that.'

Joshua is set to take on Ruiz in the ring again in Saudi Arabia on December 7.

The IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight titles will be at stake in the showdown.

Exactly. Who goes into a fight unprepared and underestimating an opponent? Joshua was really high on himself and now he can't take the criticism that came from his piss poor performance.
tbf Lennox is not just a critic but a PBC company man but I agree that it's disrespectful (well, intentionally but...) to say these things about Lewis. If not anything else Lewis' career as a boxer should command respect

Miguel Berchelt, Pedraza-Zepeda in The Works For Fury-Wallin

By Ryan Burton

WBC super featherweight champion Miguel “Alacrán” Berchelt (36-1) has advised BoxingScene.com that his next title defense will likely come on the Tyson Fury-Otto Wallin undercard in Las Vegas on September 14th. The fight card will take place at the T-Mobile Arena.

When Top Rank chairman Bob Arum announced the Fury-Wallin fight taking place on Mexican Independence Day weekend - a date that Canelo Alvarez traditionally fights on - he stated that he would fill out the card with Mexican fighters.

Berchelt, who lives in Mérida, México, said that they are currently looking at potential opponents.

As far as a fight against unbeaten former featherweight champion Oscar Valdez, Berchelt said that fight wouldn't be happening next. Valdez has had trouble making 126 pounds and recently relinquished his WBO title an announced his move up to the super featherweight division.

“That fight won’t be in September. I don’t believe that fight will happen until next year,” Berchelt told BoxingScene.com.

Sources have also advised BoxingScene.com that a fight pitting former two-division champion Jose “Sniper” Pedraza (26-2) of Puerto Rico against former title challenger Jose “Chon” Zepeda (30-2) is also nearly finalized for the Fury-Wallin card.

Zepeda, who is of a Mexican decent, gave unified super lightweight champion Jose Ramirez all he could handle in a majority decision loss in February. Pedraza is 4-1 since signing with Top Rank with his only loss coming against Vasiliy Lomachenko. He is looking to win a world title in a third weight division.
i think arum knows this shyt storm of a main event is going to need to fire power before it..pedraza vs zepeda is a damned good fight...if berchelt can get someone willing to also hand out fades with him..might have a palatable undercard
