Oscar DeLa Hoya has confirmed that talks have begun for the proposed Leo Santa Cruz - Guillermo Rigondeaux fight. This is one of the fights I most want to see this year.

Andre Ward will be returning to the ring in late March/early April!

[...] here he was again, a boxing champion at age 30, putting his retirement speech on paper. The super middleweight champion was locked in a contract dispute with Goossen Promotions that had kept him out of the ring since November 2013. Ward has signed with Jay Z’s Roc Nation Sports agency and will…

Unsurprisingly, Rios stops Alvarado when Mike doesn't come out for the fourth after being bashed for three rounds.

I said before the fight I think Alvarado is a drug addict and would be stopped quickly. He was stopped quickly, now I'm just waiting to hear the post fight drug test results.

Basically, Alvarado is done. He should retire.

I think Klitschko would knock Jennings out in about 3 or 4 rounds.

In a fight nobody saw going the distance, Wilder dominated Stiverne through most of the fight en route to winning a 12 round decision. He answered a lot of questions tonight about his chin, but I think his power may not be what people thought it was.

Leo Santa Cruz gets the win over Jesus Ruiz by 8th round stoppage. Ruiz put on a good performance and was stopped on his feet. Let's hope Leo steps up and fights Rigondeaux now.

Imam vs Maldanado Jr turned out to be a very good fight, providing us with an early round of the year candidate that featured 3 knockdowns of either fighter. Imam scored 4 knockdowns in total and secured the fight with a KO in the fifth.

In rather huge news, Andre Ward has signed with RocNation! Good to see he's making moves in his career again, hopefully we see him in the ring again soon! Also good to see RocNation get a high profile fighter.

Speaking of RocNation, tonight they are hosting two cards with the fighters they have gained from buying out Gary Shaw Promotions. One of them, "throne boxing", is the first of their 3 fight deal scheduled with Fox Sports. Including Tureano Johnson - Alex Theran, Dusty Hernandez Harrison - Tommy Rainone and Chris van Heerden - Cecil McCalla.

Name one boxer who managed to completely change your opinion on them in 2014.

James DeGale for me. I thought he was terribly average and wouldn't achieve anything at world level prior to last year, then he goes and destroys Gonzalez and Periban. Now I'm of the opinion he beats Groves in a rematch and stands a very good chance against Carl Froch.

Who have you all got in Wilder - Stiverne?
