Heavyweight Joe Joyce (8-0, 8 KOs) wants to look impressive this Saturday night on May 18 in his fight against 42-year-old Alexander Ustinov (34-3, 25 KOs) on the undercard of the Billy Joe Saunders vs. Shefat Isufi at the Lamex Stadium, in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom.

IBF/WBA junior middleweight champion Jarrett Hurd and his opponent challenger Julian ‘J-Rock’ Williams both weighed in at 153.8 pounds on Friday at their weigh-in for their fight this Saturday night on Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and Fox Deportes at the EagleBank Arena, in Fairfax, Virginia.

Errol Spence Jr. is confident that a welterweight unification between him and Terence Crawford will be taking place in 2020, but it’s going to have to be at a 60-40 split in his favor before it can take place. As long as Crawford and his promoters at Top Rank Boxing are willing to accept the smaller purse split, the fight with Spence can take place. Spence likely won’t agree to let Crawford get a 50-50 deal. If Crawford and Top Rank push for parity, the fight with Spence will likely never happen.
