Mikey Tapology Boxing Corner!

Alright folks, 

As you might know I'm Tapology Boxing editor. I know the majority of you guys are here for MMA, so was I originally. But for the last year or 2 there is a little more interest in Boxing on the site. 

So here's a place to talk boxing. 

@Mikey1903 

I posted about it in the thread for that event but I actually considered picking that.  Simsri is actually now 4-1 in Japan.  So I was like “if anyone is gonna win from Thailand, it’s him”

June June 1st can't come soon enough!!! Beterbiev vs. Bivol is, IMO, the best scheduled fight in all boxing, probably even all combat sports!   2 absolute masters! Both P4P (probably both in the top 5, they are in mines anyway, but P4P is subjective and everyone has a different list!) Anyway!  Bivol is 1 of the best technicians around with 1 of the sharpest jabs you'll ever see. Beterbiev is a destroyer, he is THE Destroyer!!  Captain of my all violence team!    
Again I.CANT.WAIT!!!!!!

Queensbury vs Matchroom 5 v 5 match ups are being officially announced too. I think I have all the bouts listed correctly already but could be a curveball in there. 
In particular Ray Ford vs Nick Ball is tasty AF!!! Ammo Williams vs Hamza Sheeraz sounds like a great ****** time too!!!!!  

Oh and throw in Deontay Wilder vs Big Bang Zhang for fun!!

Shout out to the double excellent Turkey!!!!

Absolutely gutted to be posting about yet another ****** death in boxing!  Willie Limond sadly passed away late last night.  He had suffered a seizure last week, was found slumped in his car. He had been in hospital since then.
Although 45, Limond had an upcoming fight scheduled for June. He also fought another Scottish boxing legend Ricky Burns last year. Limond suffered a bit of a beating and I can't help but think that may have had an after effect on his health.  Taking sustained punishment at 45 after 3 decades boxing isn't good obviously. 

I'll remember Limond for his fights vs Amir Khan, had me out my seat when he wobbled him!!! Also faced Mexican legend Erik Morales and was British Champion 

Absolutely gutted.  RIP Willie Limond 

R.i.p. hate seeing warrior to pass wish him eternal rest.

Always tragic to see these great fighters pass so young. R.I.P Willie Limond.
