Lomachenko vs. Lopez Now Targeted For October 3, Says Arum
By Dan Rafael

Published On Wed Jul 8, 2020, 10:10 PM EST

Scheduling and rescheduling is the name of the game as Top Rank is working on its schedule for the rest of the year, which includes a date change for the much-anticipated lightweight title unification between Vasiliy Lomachenko and Teofimo Lopez Jr.

Lomachenko-Lopez, which was at first penciled in for May 30 at Madison Square Garden in New York but forced to move to Sept. 19 at a site to be determined due to the coronavirus pandemic, is moving again.

Top Rank chairman Bob Arum told BoxingScene.com on Wednesday that the new date will be Oct. 3.

“Loma-Lopez, we had scheduled it for Sept. 19 as the working date but now it will probably go on pay-per-view and that means the working date now is Oct. 3,” Arum said of a fight he hopes to hold in Las Vegas although whether there will be spectators allowed to attend is undetermined.

“Right now, with the (coronavirus) spike going on Nevada we couldn’t schedule it even with limited spectators,” Arum said. “Hopefully, and we have some time, we’re looking to do that fight for 2,000 or maybe 2,500 people.”

Lomachenko (14-1, 10 KOs), who many regard as the No. 1 boxer in the world pound for pound, and Lopez (15-0, 12 KOs) have turned down the opportunities to have interim bouts because they only want to fight each other next. Lomachenko, in fact, began his training camp this week in his native Ukraine.

Curious who Whyte's new trainer will be, Mark Tibbs did a good job with him and helped him improve, from the sounds of it it's a location issue, Mark is gonna be spending a lot of time at his new gym. It's pretty close to the Povetkin fight, for his sake would hope the new trainer is good, he's a fighter where specific training and the right gameplan would significantly help. Richard Riakporhe split with Tibbs too.

Dyllian's been working with a young Black coach called Xavier Miller alongside his main coach for a while now so I'm assuming he's going to just switch to xav fulltime now




Happy to see a young brother get a chance with a high profile fighter

Showtime Card 8/1 At Mohegan Sun; FOX Show 8/8 At Microsoft Theater In LA
By Keith Idec

Published On Thu Jul 9, 2020, 09:15 AM EST

The sites are set for Premier Boxing Champions’ cards early in August.

BoxingScene.com has confirmed that Showtime’s telecast August 1 will air from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. Showtime will televise numerous “Showtime Championship Boxing” cards from Mohegan Sun over the subsequent several months.

MMAfighting.com first reported Wednesday night that the “Showtime Championship Boxing” broadcast August 1 will follow a Bellator MMA telecast from Mohegan Sun Arena on July 24. Showtime and Bellator are owned by ViacomCBS, also the parent company of BoxingScene.com.

Before selecting Mohegan Sun as its temporary home base, Showtime Sports’ Stephen Espinoza considered broadcasting the premium cable network’s upcoming boxing shows from a ViacomCBS soundstage in Studio City, California.

BoxingScene.com also has learned that the “FOX PBC Fight Night” broadcast scheduled for August 8 will take place at Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. FOX is expected to televise several “FOX PBC Fight Night” shows from Microsoft Theater thereafter.

Fans cannot attend the August 1 and August 8 cards due to COVID-19 restrictions.

FOX’s show August 8 will be headlined by Las Vegas’ Thomas Dulorme (25-3-1, 16 KOs) and Minneapolis’ Jamal James (26-1, 12 KOs) in a 12-round fight for the WBA’s interim welterweight title. The co-feature of FOX’s broadcast that night will pit 22-year-old Cuban prospect David Morrell (2-0, 2 KOs) against Guyana’s Lennox Allen (22-0-1, 14 KOs) in a 10-round super middleweight match.

FOX’s first boxing broadcast since March 7 was supposed to air July 25, but it was pushed back two weeks to accommodate FOX’s commitment to air Major League Baseball games July 25 and August 1. Showtime’s first boxing telecast since March 13 tentatively was scheduled for July 18, but it also was delayed two weeks.

The main event of Showtime’s August 1 show likely will match Mexico’s Luis Nery (30-0, 24 KOs) against countryman Aaron Alameda (25-0, 13 KOs) in a 12-round, 122-pound bout. Nery, a former WBC bantamweight champ, and Alameda were scheduled to headline Showtime’s March 28 broadcast from Park MGM in Las Vegas.

That March 28 show was scrapped due to the coronavirus crisis, as was FOX’s April 11 broadcast, which was to feature Dulorme-James from The Armory in Minneapolis.

a card in CT..specifically at one of my old haunts and i cant even go to it...awful :smh:
