By Dan Ambrose: Former two division world champion Tomasz Adamek (45-2, 28 KO’s) badly bruised his left hand in his 10 round unanimous decision victory over 2nd tier heavyweight Nagy Aguilera (17-7, 12 KO’s) last Saturday night at the Aviator Sports Complex in Brooklyn, New York. Adamek said he landed a shot with his left early in the fight that immediately caused him a lot of pain.

By Eric Thomas: Making his fourth fight of his still developing career unbeaten Kevin “Kimbo Slice” Ferguson (4-0, 3 KO’s) scored a 4th round knockout on Saturday night over Brian Green (0-1) at the O’Reilly Center, in Springfield, Missouri.

By Jim Dower: Unbeaten super featherweight contender Diego Magdaleno (22-0, 8 KO’s) defeated replacement opponent Fernando Beltran Jr. (36-8-1, 20 KO’s) by a 7th round TKO on Friday night at the Casino Del Sol, in Tucson, Arizona.

By Sean McDaniel: If former EBU middleweight champion Grzegorz Proksa (26-1, 19 KO’s) is smart he’ll stay away from fighting a rematch with Kerry Hope (17-3, 1 KO’s) as long as he can and perhaps forever, because Proksa was badly exposed by Hope in his 12 round decision loss to him last weekend. The judges scored it 115-112, 114-113 and 114-114.

By Ian Aldous: This past week former World heavyweight champion, James ‘Bonecrusher’ Smith (44-17-1) took the time to talk with me about his rollercoaster career and what the first man to become heavyweight champion with a college degree hopes to achieve outside the ring, helping others.

By Sean McDaniel: Last Saturday night EBU middleweight champion Grzegorz Proksa (26-1, 19 KO’s) was shockingly beat by a big Welsh fighter named Kerry Hope (17-3, 1 KO’s) by a 12 round majority decision at the Motorpoint Arena, Sheffield, Yorkshire, United Kingdom. The loss has a lot of Proksa fans crying foul, feeling that the 27-year-old Proksa did more than enough to handily win the fight or at worse get a draw. I don’t see it that way. Proksa deserved to lose that fight and my guess is he’d lose again to Hope in a rematch if one takes place.

By William Mackay: Previously unbeaten now former EBU middleweight champion Grzegorz Proksa (26-1, 19 KO’s) was beaten by 30-year-old little known challenger Kerry Hope (17-3, 1 KO’s) by a 12 round majority decision last Saturday night at the Motorpoint Arena, Sheffield, Yorkshire, United Kingdom. The final judges’ scores were 115-112 and 114-113 for Hope, and 114-114 even. The 27-year-old Proksa from Poland sustained a cut above his left eye in the 2nd round from a clash of heads in the last seconds of the round.

By Jim Dower: Undefeated heavyweight prospect and former 2008 super heavyweight Olympian from Ukraine Vyacheslav Glazkov (11-0, 8 KO’s) registered his eighth knockout with a 5th round stoppage of 6’9″ 300+ Evegeny Orlov on Friday night at the Circus, in Krasnodar, Russia. Glazkov, 27, hurt the rounded Orlov with a right to the body in the 5th round that caused Orlov to wince and briefly turn his back in pain. Although he continued to fight for the remaining seconds of the round, you could see that he had possibly suffered a rib injury from the right hand shot.

By Gerardo Granados: It’s been a while now since the last time I saw boxing related comments full of joy on a boxing site. Yeah it is true, on this site boxing experts like McJack deserve all the respect; he writes balanced articles and for sure has vast boxing history knowledge. Manuel Perez was a site icon, he was biased but it was entertaining to read his articles.

By Jim Dower: 34-year-old super middleweight contender Adonis Stevenson (17-1, 14 KO’s) will be fighting contender Noe Gonzalez Alcoba (28-1, 20 KO’s) in a 12 round bout at the Bell Centre, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. This isn’t the fight that Stevenson wanted, as he was hoping to take on former two time title challenger Librado Andrade. However, Andrade reportedly past on the idea of fighting Stevenson for whatever reason.
