A tremendous weekend of championship fights is on tap and from Australia to Minnesota to Wales, we're ready to preview it all on the latest "Big Fight Weekend Preview" Podcast.
Host T.J. Rives and Dan Rafael, insider for BigFightWeekend.com, are back with plenty to discuss, preview and predict.
First, the guys go over the news of the week with Dan's exclusive story that Triller has failed to prominent fighters from their May 14th PPV in Los Angeles, including Sergey Kovalev and Kubrat Pulev. The guys discuss whether this is the legitimate end to the floundering Triller being able to do boxing business on any scale in the future due to their latest financial mess?
Then, they talk about the Gervonta Davis PPV numbers coming in from last weekend in Brooklyn and Dan details what his present day sales success means relative to others. T.J. and Dan also discuss the decision by former heavyweight champ Anthony Joshua to pick American trainer Robert Garcia to work with for his upcoming rematch with Oleksandr Usyk later this year.
Next, Dan has an interview with unified Jr. Featherweight title holder Stephen Fulton, who defends Saturday night against former 122 lb. champ Danny Roman in the Showtime Boxing main event in Minneapolis. Fulton gives insight into his mindset and whether we'll see him rematch Brandon Figueroa in the short term, if he wins Saturday.
Finally, the guys get to the biggest bout of the weekend, as unified lightweight champ George Kambosos defends his three titles in his home country Sunday afternoon Australian time against American WBC titleholder, Devin Haney. How will Haney fair "down under," especially without his father/trainer Bill, who cannot enter Australia due to a previous criminal conviction. Will the moment be to big or will Haney stun Kambosos?
And, in addition to more on Fulton-Roman, Dan previews the IBF Super Featherweight title bout between Kenichi Ogawa and Joe Cordina in Cordina's home of Cardiff, Wales. It's Ogawa's first defense against a decorated, unbeaten challenger.
