Matchroom boxing promoter Eddie Hearn has big plans for Anthony Joshua and the heavyweight division. With 2015 approaching, it seems as if we're set for a stunning year of HUGE bouts. Wladimir Klitschko has been fending off his rivals for years, but he may soon have some competition, at long last, and it looks like it will come from Britain. Tyson Fury, David Price, Dereck Chisora, David Haye and Joshua, are all heavyweight hopefuls that may just get some of boxing's biggest bouts in 2015, and that may include possible fights with Wlad himself.

If you haven't heard of Gennady Golovkin yet, you will soon, and he's making sure of it. The boxing star is crushing opponent after opponent, and he has delivered another sensational knock-out in his latest fight against Marco Antonio Rubio. The huge star continues to improve and only needed two rounds this time around, and the middleweight champion doesn't look like he'll slow down anytime soon. Read More »
Carl Froch and James DeGale could of stepped in to the ring with one another, but it seems Froch has little to no interest in the boxing bout. The IBF and WBA super-middleweight champion has ripped in to his domestic rival, insulting him, and ruling out their possible showdown in the process. Froch has revealed he'd retire before bothering to get out of bed to train for a DeGale bout. The champion wasn't coy, either. Read More »
The boxing world is set to explode, and it's got little to do with money. Carl Froch, Amir Khan, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr and Floyd Mayweather Jr all have millions of dollars to spare, as proven with Floyd's recent trip to a L.A. strip club, however, it seems for once, their fights are about their opponents, and the locations only. Floyd wants a Las Vegas MGM showdown with British boxer Amir Khan, while Chavez is being tempted in to fighting Carl Froch. Will these blockbuster bouts take place, and if not, will champions Froch and Mayweather simply accept that they'd rather face retirement than another meaningless fight? Read More »
Boxing is one of the most loved sports in the world, but sometimes it raises strange questions. Both Floyd Mayweather Jr and Wladimir Klitschko are not only two of the best boxers around today, but they are two of the greatest ever. Which is better? With the big gap in weight, we've never been able to find out, leaving a fantasy fight for only our imagination to run wild with. Floyd is preparing for his final fight, possibly with Amir Khan, while Wlad is preparing Anthony Joshua to take his place, but which champion would win if they were the same weight? Ex-world champion David Haye had his say awhile ago. Read More »
The cruiserweight and heavyweight boxing divisions have, for a long while, been the pinnacle of the boxing world. However, it seems they're no longer content with being separated because of a few pounds of weight. Cruiserweights aren't much lighter than heavyweight, but the glory the latter receives seems to weigh a ton more for their self esteem, so could Tony Bellew, Nathan Cleverly and Marco Huck ditch their division, and make a change to their bodies, hoping to get clashes with the likes of Wladimir Klitschko and Anthony Joshua instead? Huck seems prepared to do so, Read More »
Wladimir Klitschko may be the boxing heavyweight champion of the world, but he's already insisted that British boxer Anthony Joshua has all the tools to replace him. Yet again, he's proven the champ is right. A.J. was supposed to have his first 'tough' fight, for the WBC international heavyweight title, and yet again, he won a fight within 2 rounds. The fight was stopped with Denis Bakhtov unable to continue. One of the next fights coming up for the WBC champ could be former world champion David Haye, but how will A.J. perform against the better boxers? Read More »

Wladimir Klitschko has spent years beating up opponents, especially the ones that talk trash to him, showing the world heavyweight champion little, or no respect. However, the star is engaged to Hayden Panettiere, and they're expecting a baby, so perhaps it's time he puts his gloves away and skips the early morning run. It may prove difficult for the champ to walk away, and that would explain why he's preparing top British prospect Anthony Joshua to take his place. As David Haye looks to make a comeback, and Shannon Briggs continues to stalk the father to be, could AJ silence the pair for him? Read More »

Matchroom boxing promoter Eddie Hearn is insisting that Anthony Joshua will beat Denis Bakhtov, then fight David Haye in the near future, but could he fight his close pal, the world heavyweight champion, Wladimir Klitschko? AJ is regarded as one of the best boxing prospects ever, but strangely he has hit out at himself, saying he's 'not that good', however, Wlad disagrees with that. The champion recently trained with AJ, and was then full of praise, and with him edging closer to retirement, could AJ face him, or replace him as the boxing king? Before long the recently engaged Wlad will want to spend time with Hayden Panettiere and his yet-to-be-born baby, but could he help AJ to take his place? Read More »
Wladimir Klitschko is obviously a man than that gets what he wants. The world heavyweight boxing champion has dominated his sport, he's set to marry his dream partner Hayden Panettiere , known for her role on 'Nashville', and he's due to become a father, with the engaged duo pregnant, expecting a baby in the near future. However, when he calls time on his career, what does he want for the future of his beloved sport? It seems like he'd like nothing more than to see top British heavyweight prospect Anthony Joshua take his place, and he might just get his way as he helps to ready him for after his retirement.

IBF/WBA super middleweight champion Carl Froch has achieved a lot in his boxing career, so it's understandable that he needs motivation for his final fights before retirement. Time after time he has proven the world wrong, but now as he makes the world wait, everyone can only wonder, who will he fight next? He's believed to favour a fight in Las Vegas against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, yet both British boxers George Groves and James DeGale present him with high-earning potential. However, it seems the world champion boxer would put personal glory over money as he reaches the end of his career. Read More »
