Ringside Revelations: Latest Boxing News

LOS ANGELES – Noel Mikaelian did more than enough to get revenge in a rough-and-tumble rematch against Badou Jack for the WBC cruiserweight title on Saturday night. Now he's turning his attentions to unification fights.

Diego Pacheco would definitely consider facing Hamzah Sheeraz next, but Jaime Munguia is also in his sights after beating Kevin Lele Sadjo on Saturday night.

Ninety-two days after their first fight ended in a majority draw, Olivia Curry and Kaye Scott will return to the scene of their hotly contested bout to do battle again for the vacant WBA and WBC middleweight titles.

Jaron “Boots” Ennis and Vergil Ortiz have instructed their teams to make a fight between them happen next. So far, however, discussions have been kept under wraps and it's unclear if talks are progressing. If, of course, things are going well and both sides can come to an agreement, countless names, including Xander Zayas, will be watching closely.

Ayton, 19, is one of the hottest prospects in boxing, but once the Bristolian takes off her hand wraps or kicks off her running shoes she switches off.

Pacheco, who stands 6-foot-4, is ranked by all four sanctioning bodies. Sheeraz is also a towering super middleweight standing 6-3 who is ranked inside the top six by all four groups.

Seven months after saying he was robbed of a win, Mikaelian delivered the statement he was seeking by controlling the second half the bout.

Pacheco leveraged an 11-inch reach advantage and an eight-inch height advantage and leaned on a potent jab to get the job done.

As the fight entered the second half, Amos stayed on the front foot but his pace and output lessened. Brown was beginning to find more success with his movement.

The victory should give Cordina, a former titleholder, the No. 1 spot in the WBO junior welterweight rankings.

Mercado picked up a secondary WBO title, and in the process should move closer to a crack at Ring and WBO champion Teofimo Lopez, who next faces Shakur Stevenson on January 31.

Skye Nicolson easily outpointed Yulihan Luna to win a secondary 122-pound title on Saturday in Stockton, California.

The fallout after what happened at Tattersall’s shut the place down and broke the sport of boxing in Illinois for more than 25 years.

It has emerged and been confirmed by The Ring in the last few hours that Cletus Seldin is out of his scheduled interim WBA junior welterweight title bout against Kevin Brown on Saturday night at Orlando's Caribe Royale.

Dmitry Salita has made Detroit the focal point for many of his cards under the Salita Promotions banner, with Claressa Shields his flagbearer. They return there on December 20, headlined by Olivia Curry-Kaye Scott II for the WBA/WBC middleweight titles, and new signee Tony Harrison feels Salita deserves more plaudits for helping bring the sport back to the city.

Undefeated Diego Pacheco has developed into one of boxing's best super middleweights. He wants higher-profile, tougher fights in 2026 to further prove himself.

Cruiserweight champ Badou Jack doesn't expect Jake Paul to last long on Dec. 19.

Stephen Fulton blames himself after his weak performance against O'Shaquie Foster on December 6, implying that he needs to approach his training differently.
