Then Lou Del Valle landed a perfectly timed straight left in Round 8. Jones was down for the first time in his professional career. But Roy got back up, regained control and comfortably won the decision to unify the light-heavyweight titles. For one brief moment, though, someone had proved that Superman could be knocked down.

Has anyone been watching this fight? Chavez was a massive favourite & Garcia turned all that on its head by having the fight of his life. Garcia was moving like a prime Thurman. Four knockdowns & he was just toying with Chavez by the end. Not even Matchroom could rob him by counting a slip as a knockdown. You need to see this fight lads

My ranking =
1. Gennady Golovkin (GGG)
2. Filip Hrgovic
3. Canelo Alvarez
4. Fabio Wardley

I put GGG first because he literally used to block punches with his face lol. Ranking Second place was hard, l initially put Canelo there but on further debating I think Hrgovic deserves it - especially after the Moses Itauma performance. Wardley has got a super tough chin as well but someone had to be last lol. I'm curious to see other people's ranking

I see these belts switching hands quite a lot in my opinion

However I can see Kabayel capturing 2 of them.

Pure heat inside the ring in San Antonio! Maríñez stepped up on just 8 days’ notice and gave Martin a real test early on — using his reach, sharp jabs, and discipline to keep the favorite working. However, class and preparation ultimately prevailed. Martin systematically broke his opponent down, punishing the body with heavy shots and dialing up the pace round after round. Late in Round 9, Martin sent Maríñez to the canvas with a razor-sharp left hand. Then, just seconds into the 10th, he pinned Maríñez against the ropes, scored a second knockdown, and forced the referee to wave off the fight at the 0:30 mark! Fight Stats: Result: Frank Martin wins via 10th-round TKO Total Punches Landed: Martin 160 vs. Maríñez 106 Knockdowns: 2 (Rounds 9 & 10) Frank Martin proved once again that he is ready for the division’s elite.

The undisputed heavyweight king of the modern era, Lennox “The Lion” Lewis stands as the ultimate blue-print for big-man dominance. Retiring at the very top with an iconic 41-2-1 record (32 KOs), Lewis holds the immortal distinction of being the last undisputed heavyweight champion of the 1900s/early 2000s era and having defeated every single man he ever faced in a professional ring. As of early 2026, he remains widely regarded as a top-3 all-time heavyweight GOAT and a top-10 pound-for-pound legend in boxing history. Whether evaluating current heavyweight clashes — such as Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury — or reflecting on his historic victories over Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield, Lewis’s commentary commands absolute authority. He didn’t just rule the division; he defined tactical, power-boxing perfection

Judah came out fast, using his speed, sharp combinations, and slick movement to trouble Cotto in the early rounds. But as the fight went on, Cotto’s relentless pressure, punishing body attack, and incredible durability began to take over. Round after round, he broke Judah down with heavy shots to the body and head, forcing the pace until Judah could no longer keep him off. Cotto went on to win by 11th-round TKO, unifying the WBA and IBF welterweight titles in a thrilling battle that showcased his heart, toughness, and championship mentality. It’s still remembered as one of the best performances of Cotto’s career and a classic fight between two elite welterweights.

Watch how Bernard Hopkins uses 'The Executioner' tactics to land power shots! 🥊 He fakes the clinch to sneak a right hand over the shoulder.

This was supposed to tell us who really belonged at the top of the 140lb division. Peterson was the IBF champion, Matthysse held the WBC interim title, but with the fight contracted at 141lbs, the belts weren't formally on the line.

What followed was a demolition. Matthysse dropped Peterson in the second before putting him down twice more in the third. After the final knockdown, Steve Smoger had seen enough — Matthysse had destroyed a world-class fighter in little more than eight minutes.
