Watch WBA Boxing Amir Khan v Dimitry Salita Free Live Online Stream

November 29th, 2009

Amir Khan will defend his world title against Dmitriy Salita at the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle on Saturday December 5.

Khan, who won the WBA light-welterweight belt in July by outpointing Andreas Kotelnik, faces a tricky first defence.

Promoter Frank Warren said: “For Amir’s first defence this is a very tough fight for him and he’s taking on a fighter that the American media are really building up at the moment.

“Salita’s got a great record, he’s unbeaten and carries a big punch and of course he will pose a threat to Amir, but Amir’s a world-class fighter and has to deal with these challengers.”

He added: “I’ve promoted a lot of shows in Newcastle with all the big names like Naz (Naseem Hamed), (Joe) Calzaghe, (Ricky) Hatton and (Nigel) Benn and I’m delighted to bring Amir to the city for the first time.

“The public there are big sports fans and love the big events and it’s great to bring them a fight like Khan v Salita.”

Salita, the mandatory challenger for Khan’s title, was born in Odessa, Ukraine, and moved with his family to Brooklyn, New York, when he was nine years old. He is an observant Jew and strictly follows Jewish law so if he fights on a Saturday then it must begin after sundown, the end of the sabbath.

He famously said: “Anyone who wants a good whuppin’ from me is just going to have to wait until sundown.”

Watch MMA UFC 106: Ortiz vs Griffin II Free Live Online Stream

November 18th, 2009

Previously announced match-ups of John Howard vs. Dennis Hallman and Kenny Florian vs. Clay Guida  were moved to The Ultimate Fighter: Heavyweights Finale and UFC 107 respectively.

MMAWeekly.com had reported that Tom Lawlor would fight on the card but he has been moved to UFC Fight Night: Maynard vs. Diaz.

Tito Ortiz was originally scheduled to fight Mark Coleman. However, on October 5, 2009, Ortiz reported that the fight was now off, and it later became known that Coleman was suffering from a knee injury. UFC confirmed that Forrest Griffin would step in to face Ortiz.

Jon Fitch was originally set to fight Ricardo Almeida but Almeida was forced off the card with a knee injury. Fitch was announced to fight Thiago Alves at UFC 107, but Alves was forced to pull out due to an injury during training. Fitch is still on the UFC 107 card and will now be fighting Mike Pierce.

On October 26, UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar pulled out of his fight against Shane Carwin due to an illness (mononucleosis) that has kept him from training for several weeks.While resting in Canada, he collapsed and was hospitalized, and was found to also have a serious intestinal disorder that may possibly end his career. The UFC therefore had the Ortiz v. Griffin fight headline the UFC 106 card.

Watch Boxing Super Six Andre Ward v Mikkel Kessler Free Live Online Stream

November 18th, 2009
The Super-Six tournament has already proven a stunning, innovative success. By taking in six top fighters in one division working toward a common goal has not really been seen since the alphabet organizations began proliferating in the 1970s.
Mikkel Kessler and Andre Ward are super talents that would not have met for at least a couple of years (if ever) had it not been for the Super-Six. Ward may have very well captured one of the various belts and been force, as Kessler has been, to engage in meaningless mandatories ad nauseam.
So, it is with particular relish that we get to see this bout come to fruition Saturday night.
Kessler, 30, 42-1 (32 KOs), Denmark, is clearly in his prime years. The tough loss to Joe Calzaghe notwithstanding, he has resided at or near the top of the division for years. Wins over the likes of Markus Beyer, Eric Lucas, and Anthony Mundine, among others, has solidified his place as an elite fighter. What none of those names have given him, however, is the breakout victory that he needs to become an international figure. This tournament, with Andre Ward first on the menu, gives him that opportunity.
His crisp and precise punching has enabled him to adjust to a variety of opponent styles. In his most recent title defense, Kessler demonstrated that he had little trouble adjusting to the tall southpaw Gusmyr Perdomo. While Perdomo does not have nearly the talent level of Andre Ward, he was a useful warmup for the switch-hitter Ward.
Ward, 25, 20-0 (13 KOs), Oakland, came to the pro ranks with an Olympic Gold Medal pedigree — a rarity for American fighters of late. In amassing his undefeated ledger, he has not been in any hurry to climb the ladder. Whatever doubts fans and pundits may have had about his development had their questions answered earlier this year when he out-punched and out-boxed the hard punching Edison Miranda. In that fight Ward show that he could take the big shot and use a range of skills to decision a dangerous opponent.

Watch Boxing Manny Pacquiao vs Miguel Cotto Free Live Online Stream

November 9th, 2009

It’s finally been made official, the Manny Pacquiao vs. Miguel Cotto super fight is now signed and sealed. On November 14 th, 2009 from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas Nevada, pound for pound champion Manny Pacquiao will take on welterweight powerhouse Miguel Cotto.

The fight will be fought at a catch weight of 145 pounds. The weight was one of the biggest factors holding up the creation of this fight, as Pacquiao’s camp wanted Cotto to come down even farther. Finally the two sides agreed on 145, 2 pounds lighter than the welterweight limit.

Manny Pacquiao’s opponent for his November fight was unknown for quite some time. Finally it appeared that Shane Mosley would be the man to step into the ring with him. However, Team Pacquiao and Team Cotto were able to finalize the deal, made all the easier since both men are promoted by Bob Arum and Top Rank Promotions.

Pacquiao will have the clear speed advantage in this bout. He showed the world what his speed could do even at the higher weight classes against the likes of Oscar De La Hoya and Ricky Hatton.

Miguel Cotto on the other hand will come into the ring as the naturally larger man, having fought at junior welterweight and welterweight for his entire career. He also has superior boxing skills, while Pacquiao is the more dynamic offensive fighter. Team Pacquiao is also hoping that forcing Cotto to cut weight down to 145 pounds will leave him weaker, and Pacquiao more able to capitalize on that vulnerability.

Watch Boxing WBA David Haye v Nikolai Valuev Free Live Online Stream

November 2nd, 2009

WBA heavyweight champion Nikolai Valuev has arrived in Nuremberg ready for Saturday’s fight with British challenger David Haye insisting he will leave Bavaria with his title.

Valuev, 36, takes on Haye at the Nuremberg Arena with former cruiserweight Haye eager to claim his first world title and the Londoner has accused the 2.13m tall Russian of being a “circus freak” in the pre-fight build-up.

But Valuev has kept silent despite his opponent’s taunts as he looks to pick up his 51st professional win with 34 knock-outs and just one defeat, to Ruslan Chagaev in April 2007, on his record.

“I am in great shape and I will take home my title with me,” said the Russian. Haye, 29, is 23cms shorter and nearly 40 kgs lighter than Valuev in what is a true David versus Goliath contest.

The brash Brit – who labelled IBF and WBO heavyweight champion Vladimir Klitschko as ‘Bitchko’ – has been sparring with his trainer wearing 15cm-high boots to prepare for the height disadvantage he will face.

Referring to the biblical tale of diminutive David slaying the towering Goliath with a single blow to the head, Haye has used the fable in tv advertising for the fight.

“David beat Goliath…,” says Haye looking into the camera, “….and this is my sling shot,” he says holding up his fist.

Valuev has never been knocked down in 51 fights, but Haye insists he can be the first fighter to put the towering Russian on the canvas.

Watch Boxing Mikkel Kessler v Gusmyl Perdomo Free Live Online Stream

September 11th, 2009

WBA Super-Middleweight Champion Mikkel Kessler (41-1, 31 KOs) has vowed not to underestimate mandatory challenger Gusmyl Perdomo (16-2, 10 KOs). The duo came face-to-face for the first time today during the official press conference at the MCH Herning in Denmark. They will meet in the ring again on September 12, with SHOWTIME airing the fight on a special Saturday primetime edition of ShoBox: The New Generation at 10 p.m. ET/PT (same day tape delay). “I am thrilled to be fighting in my home country and I am glad the fans in the U.S. will have the chance to watch,” Kessler said. “I cannot wait to be back in the ring. Obviously, there is much more at stake than just the WBA Super-Middleweight Title.”

Kessler is to face Andre Ward in their hotly-anticipated first-round meeting of SHOWTIME´s Super Six World Boxing Classic. “I am not thinking about that right now,” he stated. “All my focus is on Perdomo. He is a tough challenger who wants to walk away with my title. I want to enter the Super Six with a victory and my belt, so I know how much there will be at stake on September 12.”

Kessler will soon move his training camp base to Berlin to work out in Team Sauerland´s facilities in the German capital. “It will be a very tough preparation but I look forward to it,” he said. And he added with a smile: “Now I go to their hometown and show them how to box.”

Challenger Gusmyl Perdomo also voiced his confidence ahead of the clash. “This is the biggest fight of my career,” he stated. “Mikkel Kessler is a great fighter and a great champion, but I will rise to the occasion and take the belt home. You have to be very intelligent to beat Kessler, but I have got the moves – the Latino moves and the feel for the rhythm – to defeat him. I know I have got what it takes to leave the ring victorious.”

Watch Floyd Mayweather Jr. v Juan Manuel Marquez Free Live Online Stream

September 8th, 2009

Floyd Mayweather Jnr has confirmed he will return to the ring against Juan Manuel Marquez in Las Vegas on September 19.

 ’Pretty Boy’ retired with an unbeaten 39-0 record after beating Ricky Hatton in 10 brutal rounds at the MGM Arena in December 2007, turning his back on the sport and handing in the mantle of ‘best pound-for-pound fighter on the planet’.

However, at just 32 the five-weight world champion clearly feels there is plenty of fight left in him and even more money to be made at the box office.

In Marquez he will take on a world class fighter who has also been world champion in three weight classes, and who currently holds the WBA and WBO lightweight titles after stopping Juan Diaz inside nine rounds earlier this year.

Marquez had been in the running to take on Hatton before Manny Pacquiao agreed to fight the Brit after weeks of talks, but the Mexican now gets his own shot at the man who still claims to be the best in the world.

Victory for Marquez could set him on course for a third fight with Pacquiao with the duo already having fought two thunderous contests – the first a draw with the second going to the Filipino by split decision

Watch Amir Khan v Andreas Kotelnik Free Live Online Streaming

July 5th, 2009

The boy from Bolton challenges WBA Light-Welterweight champion Andreas Kotelnik on Saturday, July 18 at Manchester’s MEN Arena.

Khan, fresh from defeating modern-day legend Marco Antonio Barrera, tops a bill crammed with the best of British talent.

Olympic trio James DeGale, Frankie Gavin and Billy Joe Saunders will continue their professional careers with the boxing world watching, while hard-hitting Matthew Hall and showman Anthony Small battle it out for the vacant British Light-Middleweight title.

But all eyes will be on Khan as he aims to become British boxing’s biggest attraction.

It will be the first time in 21 professional fights that Khan has boxed at light-welterweight and his world-title chance comes just over six months after his stunning KO loss to Breidis Prescott.

He has since teamed up with Freddie Roach, the man who masterminded Manny Pacquiao’s stellar successes over Ricky Hatton and Oscar de la Hoya, and will be strongly fancied to take Kotelnik’s title away.

The Hamburg-based Ukrainian will be making the third defence of the belt he took from Gavin Rees in March 2008.

Sky Sports’ Jim Watt, said: “Khan looked sensational against Barrera. The Freddie Roach effect is paying off for Amir without doubt; he’s the best coach in the game.

His technique and defence have been so much better since he began training with Freddie. Kotelnik is a solid fighter, a genuine world champion.

“I think it’s a good time to move Amir up and out of the lightweight division and this is a great match up for him.”
