Cris Esqueda/Golden Boy/Getty ImagesNot real. If anything, the legal action could possibly pave the way for a negotiation that consists of a deal for a rematch. The yield round between Garcia and also Haney is simply extremely large to skip, for both the boxers and the sport.There's the huge dispute following Garcia's beneficial test and subsequential 1 year restriction. Haney claims the PEDs triggered Garcia's surprising efficiency, alongside the truth Garcia was actually 3.2 pounds obese. Both infractions are actually vital to the lawsuit.Haney was as long as a 9-1 preferred yet was floored three attend a dismayed reduction that was actually later on rescinded to a no contest. The fight was actually thrilling, as well as the second bout stands up to become a ticket office bonanza.After all of, the dominating thought and feelings heading into the April competition was actually that Haney will control. Garcia's behavior in the accumulation of the fight was actually therefore negligent that there was actually genuine worry the fight wouldn't take place at all.Now, with all the poor blood stream in between the fighters along with Garcia's growing star energy as well as his functionality against Haney (perks notwithstanding), there will be tremendous passion in a rematch.

Etienne Laurent/EPA-EFEReal. Canelo informed ESPN final month that he was actually targeting a rematch must Bivol succeed upcoming full week. As well as why certainly not? Canelo was a major preference against his past four enemies as well as has actually been actually commonly slammed for his amount of competition.Against Bivol, Canelo would certainly be a made a decision longshot. Bivol directed Alvarez when they satisfied in May 2022, even with the slim scorecards. Bivol is not merely larger but had the capacity to use his maneuvering and also elite punching capacity to bewilder and penalize Alvarez.Editor's Picks2 RelatedCanelo has actually preserved during that he's a far better fighter than Bivol and that his operatively mended hand is going to help him confirm it in a rematch. This will additionally be a tradition match. Canelo will possess the opportunity to not simply come to be recognized champ at a 2nd body weight lesson, however additionally retaliate the second loss of his job (the various other defeat was against Floyd Mayweather in 2013). What remains to become found: Bivol's willingness to battle Canelo once more. When the rematch was reviewed throughout the summer season of 2023, Bivol was actually steadfast that the fight should occur at 168 extra pounds for Canelo's recognized championship. Alvarez mentioned the battle required to take place at 175. Whatever weight they decide on, this match is by far the best alternative for Canelo if he's certainly not heading to encounter either David Benavidez or even Terence Crawford. However Bivol first possesses an enormous challenge to deal with versus Beterbiev.-- CoppingerReal or otherwise: Mikhailovich will certainly displace AlimkhanulyJanibek Alimkhanuly, left, puts his IBF middleweight planet title vulnerable versus Andrei Mikhailovich on Friday in Australia. Mikey Williams/Top RankReal: Mikhailovich, of New Zealand, is stepping into the supplant Australia with a strong sense of obligation. He is actually an aggressive and fearless competitor that appears all set to let loose after traveling to the U.S. months ago to eliminate, only to find out that Alimkhanuly stopped working to bring in body weight and also the battle was postponed.Mikhailovich is actually a highly effective puncher, and punchers are willing to take on to land their strikes, so I expect him to perform just that. On the other hand, much of Alimkhanuly's previous rivals have gotten into the band along with self-doubt, determined due to the buzz neighboring the champ. This moment Alimkhanuly finds themself outside his convenience zone, facing an established, ready challenger. Although this is actually Mikhailovich's very first battle versus an unparalleled enemy, the concerns are actually high and he possesses everything to obtain. The concern is actually, can he stay clear of obtaining knocked out early? Or even can easily he injure the champ early to get respect?I assume Mikhailovich's relentless type could trouble Alimkhanuly's counterpunching style, especially given that Alimkhanuly has actually only gone the complete 12 arounds when in his profession. For Mikhailovich, enduring the early arounds as well as taking the match deep will certainly be actually essential. Alimkhanuly's ability to adjust and resist Mikhailovich's aggressiveness as well as drilling energy will definitely be exciting to see.-- BradleyReal or otherwise: Joshua will certainly certainly not take the rematch along with Dubois nextDaniel Dubois, right, knocked down Anthony Joshua four times in the course of his fifth-round KO victory to guard the IBF heavyweight planet headline.

Joshua, punching's greatest wage earner responsible for Canelo, has gone coming from closing with it a massive, lucrative face-off along with the winner of the Dec. 21 Usyk vs. Fierceness match, to overcoming to keep his label applicable at boxing's leading table. To put themself back right into major contention for a megafight in 2025, Joshua needs to regain some reliability after last month's five-round KO defeat to Dubois, and the only means he may do that is along with a prompt rematch.Though his marketer, Matchroom, might certainly not concur, Joshua won't mind taking the slim side of an offer that will definitely observe him experience Dubois in a part two, this time in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, possibly on Feb. 22, considering that it supplies him the quickest option back. The victor of the Dubois vs. Joshua rematch would certainly proceed to face the winner of Usyk vs. Madness 2 in summertime 2025, perhaps back at London's Wembley Coliseum, the performance of Joshua's humiliating four presentations against Dubois facing a UK-record 96,000 followers pair of weeks back. That fight might be for all 4 primary big-time globe titles.Two-time champion Joshua (28-4, 25 KOs), that switches 35 this month, has actually currently put away recommendations from past pugilists like Barry McGuigan that he should retire, amidst hesitations in order to whether he is actually shedding resistance to electrical power punches.Dubois (22-2, 21 KOs), 27, is likewise up for a rematch as well as is going to expensive his possibilities against his drunk English competitor. And this time around he would certainly be paid more.It was a chaotic, amusing and electrifying fight the very first time around, which would certainly swell pay-per-view purchases for a rematch. But due to the fact that Dubois vs. Joshua 2 needs to take place in the wintertime and the U.K. only has one coliseum along with a roof covering (Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, which possesses a capacity of 74,500), it will be an unpleasant surprise to see this fight land at a U.K. venue.Turki Alalshikh, one of the most strong have a place in punching who regulates schedules that happen on Saudi Arabia-backed punching events, are going to be actually keen for such a big match-- among the biggest boxing can provide next year-- occurring in Saudi Arabia.Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn, that overviews Joshua's occupation, claims Joshua has currently conceded conditions, while Frank Warren, Dubois' marketer, states Dubois is going to fight again in February.

Richard Pelham/Getty ImagesReal. Ball has actually been hungry, alert and also hectic in stepping up to best level over the last year, also in fights where he really did not possess his hand increased. The Liverpool-based 5-foot-2 pugilist carries out certainly not seem to be to become troubled through a height negative aspect in world label fights and also was actually unfavorable to be refused triumph in a crack draw against Rey Vargas, the WBC featherweight titleholder, in March. What was a lot more remarkable was Sphere's split decision get Raymond Ford, that was earlier undefeated, for the WBA waistband, back in June in Riyadh.Rios (34-4, 17 KOs), 34, has actually certainly not been as active or even in the same form as Sphere, that are going to have plenty of fire for his initial globe title defense before his home city followers.
