By Peter Wells: No one ever said filling ones potential would be easy, and when one hits a roadblock or two it takes a person of un-teachable determination and will power to fulfil that promise which has been shifted upon ones shoulders. So when Amir Khan suffered defeat number three it would take someone with that incredible will power to bounce back and reach the heights that he was expected to reach.
Yet another change in trainer and Khan is set to go again. So here we go. Take four! Now with Virgil Hunter in Khan’s corner, the Bolton born Olympic Silver medallist will take to the ring for the second time since Danny Garcia took Khan out in 4 explosive rounds. First up was the undersized and over matched Carlos Molina (not the Carlos Molina competing at 154lbs), whom was outclassed for 10 rounds before his corner decided enough was enough.

By Tony Crooks: Firstly, let me point out that this is not an article; this is for all of you that make comments on this website. The rules are as follows, you can not name any fighter that has not been a champion and they have to have been a champion between 1993- 2013. I hear about the likes of Ali, Foreman, and Frazier all the time. They were the greats of their time, let’s talk about our time.

By Dan Ambrose: Eddie Reynoso, the trainer for WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canel” Alvarez (42-0-1, 30 KO’s), says that they are targeting Floyd Mayweather Jr. and/or Sergio Martinez for Canelo’s next fight date on September 14th in a fight that will likely be put back in Texas.
By Shane Newsome: With a heavy schedule of fights on both sides of the pond its easy for a fight or a whole fight card to have been missed by a casual boxing fan recently and could be forgiven, and if this is the site you use for all you boxing news (which for a lot of people that may be the case) then its too easy to get drawn in by a bias writers opinion of a fight.
By Dan Ambrose: WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (43-0, 26 KO’s) didn’t know much about Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero (31-1-1, 18 KO’s) before agreeing to defend his title against him on May 4th in Las Vegas, Nevada, but since the fight was signed, Mayweather has discovered that Guerrero is a “dirty fighter” in his view and with a “flat-footed” fighting style.
