Cris Esqueda/Golden Boy/Getty ImagesNot real. If just about anything, the lawsuit could possibly pave the way for a settlement deal that features an offer for a rematch. The return round in between Garcia and also Haney is merely extremely significant to skip, for both the fighters and also the sport.There's the huge conflict observing Garcia's beneficial test as well as subsequent 1 year ban. Haney states the PEDs brought about Garcia's astonishing performance, along with the reality Garcia was 3.2 pounds overweight. Each violations are actually key to the lawsuit.Haney was actually as long as a 9-1 favored however was knocked down 3 attend a distressed reduction that was actually later overturned to a no contest. The battle was actually awesome, and the 2nd match stands to be a box office bonanza.After all, the prevailing idea moving right into the April matchup was that Haney would certainly dominate. Garcia's habits in the buildup of the match was actually thus careless that there was genuine are afraid of the fight wouldn't take place at all.Now, along with all the negative blood stream between the fighters along with Garcia's growing star energy and also his efficiency against Haney (conveniences notwithstanding), there would be huge enthusiasm in a rematch. The suit only includes in the dramatization as well as can be the exact point that aids unite the concerns to make the rematch take place.-- CoppingerReal or otherwise: If Bivol reduces Beterbiev, he'll be the favorite to fight Alvarez in MayLight heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol, left, reduced Canelo Alvarez through consensual choice in 2022. Etienne Laurent/EPA-EFEReal. Canelo told ESPN last month that he was targeting a rematch must Bivol gain next week. And why certainly not? Canelo was actually a primary fave versus his previous 4 rivals as well as has been widely criticized for his amount of competition.Against Bivol, Canelo will be a chosen longshot. Bivol transmitted Alvarez when they fulfilled in May 2022, in spite of the slim directories. Bivol is actually certainly not only much bigger yet had the ability to use his footwork as well as elite punching capacity to baffle and also reprimand Alvarez.Editor's Picks2 RelatedCanelo has sustained all along that he is actually a better fighter than Bivol which his surgically mended hand will certainly assist him prove it in a rematch. This would certainly also be actually a tradition fight. Canelo will have the possibility to not merely come to be undisputed champion at a 2nd weight training class, however additionally vindicate the second reduction of his profession (the various other defeat was against Floyd Mayweather in 2013). What continues to be to be viewed: Bivol's willingness to deal with Canelo once again. When the rematch was reviewed during the course of the summertime of 2023, Bivol was unfaltering that the struggle should take place at 168 pounds for Canelo's uncontested champion. Alvarez mentioned the fight required to take place at 175. Whatever body weight they decide on, this fight is by far the very best possibility for Canelo if he's certainly not going to face either David Benavidez or Terence Crawford. Yet Bivol first possesses a tremendous challenge to face against Beterbiev.-- CoppingerReal or not: Mikhailovich is going to dismiss AlimkhanulyJanibek Alimkhanuly, left behind, puts his IBF middleweight globe title vulnerable versus Andrei Mikhailovich on Friday in Australia. Mikey Williams/Top RankReal: Mikhailovich, of New Zealand, is entering the supplant Australia along with an intense feeling of obligation. He's a hostile as well as brave competitor who appears prepared to let loose after journeying to the U.S. months ago to combat, just to find out that Alimkhanuly stopped working to make weight and also the fight was actually postponed.Mikhailovich is a highly effective puncher, as well as punchers want to take on to land their strikes, so I expect him to carry out merely that. On the other hand, a lot of Alimkhanuly's previous challengers have actually entered into the band with self-doubt, affected by the hype neighboring the champion. This time around Alimkhanuly locates himself outside his comfort area, facing a calculated, eager challenger. Although this is Mikhailovich's very first fight versus an outstanding challenger, the risks are actually higher and also he has every little thing to acquire. The question is, can he prevent acquiring knocked out early? Or may he harm the champ early to acquire respect?I think Mikhailovich's ruthless design might trouble Alimkhanuly's counterpunching style, especially since Alimkhanuly has actually simply gone the total 12 arounds as soon as in his profession. For Mikhailovich, making it through the very early arounds as well as taking the battle deep is going to be vital. Alimkhanuly's capability to conform as well as withstand Mikhailovich's aggressiveness as well as punching energy will definitely be fun to check out.-- BradleyReal or otherwise: Joshua will not get the rematch with Dubois nextDaniel Dubois, right, tore down Anthony Joshua four times in the course of his fifth-round KO success to protect the IBF heavyweight globe label.

Joshua, punching's largest wage earner responsible for Canelo, has actually gone coming from closing with it a massive, lucrative face-off along with the winner of the Dec. 21 Usyk vs. Rage battle, to fighting to maintain his title appropriate at punching's leading table. To put themself back in to significant hostility for a megafight in 2025, Joshua requires to restore some reliability after last month's five-round KO loss to Dubois, and also the only technique he can possibly do that is with a prompt rematch.Though his promoter, Matchroom, might certainly not concur, Joshua won't mind taking the slim edge of an offer that are going to observe him encounter Dubois in a sequel, this moment in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, possibly on Feb. 22, considering that it provides him the quickest option back. The champion of the Dubois vs. Joshua rematch will proceed to encounter the victor of Usyk vs. Fury 2 in summertime 2025, potentially back at London's Wembley Coliseum, the performance of Joshua's embarrassing 4 presentations versus Dubois before a UK-record 96,000 supporters two weeks back.

As well as this time he would certainly be paid for more.It was actually a disorderly, engaging and also electrifying fight the first time around, which would swell pay-per-view sales for a rematch. However since Dubois vs. Joshua 2 necessities to occur in the winter months and the U.K. simply possesses one arena along with a roof covering (Principality Coliseum in Cardiff, Wales, which has an ability of 74,500), it would certainly be actually a surprise to observe this match property at a U.K. venue.Turki Alalshikh, the most highly effective figure in boxing that handles lineups that occur on Saudi Arabia-backed punching occasions, will certainly be actually eager for such a large match-- some of the largest boxing can give upcoming year-- occurring in Saudi Arabia.Matchroom marketer Eddie Hearn, who guides Joshua's profession, says Joshua has actually already acknowledged phrases, while Frank Warren, Dubois' promoter, states Dubois will fight once again in February. Warren has also revealed his fervency for a quick rematch, thus anticipate it to take place.-- ParkinsonReal or not: Sphere will guard his WBA featherweight headline against RiosNick Round, left behind, won the WBA featherweight label through defeating Raymond Ford in June. Richard Pelham/Getty ImagesReal. Reception has actually been actually hungry, alert as well as hectic symphonious approximately best degree over the in 2013, also in fights where he really did not have his palm elevated. The Liverpool-based 5-foot-2 pugilist carries out not appear to become troubled by a height negative aspect in globe headline fights and also was regrettable to become rejected victory in a split draw against Rey Vargas, the WBC featherweight holder, in March. What was actually much more impressive was actually Ball's crack selection get Raymond Ford, who was actually formerly unbeaten, for the WBA waistband, back in June in Riyadh.Rios (34-4, 17 KOs), 34, has actually certainly not been actually as active or even in the same type as Ball, who will definitely has plenty of fire for his first globe label protection facing his home area enthusiasts. Round (20-0-1, 11 KOs), 27, should make sure, as Rios signed up an impressive fifth-round KO of Nicolas Polanco in April, yet that was the Californian's very first trip in just about pair of years. Vargas likewise outpointed Rios in 2017, as well as Murodjon Akhmadaliev ceased Rios in the last around for the WBA and IBF junior lightweight planet labels in June 2022.
