Anthony Joshua telling Ring Magazine that knocking out Jake Paul was just "completing an assignment" is cold 🥶. AJ really looked at that fight as community service for the sport of boxing. Was that the absolute end of the influencer boxing peak? Let's talk. #Boxing
O’Shaquie Foster calling Shakur Stevenson "two-faced" and bringing up old sparring sessions is exactly the kind of energy the sport needs right now. Drop the talk and lock them in the ring. Who y’all got if this fight gets made? 🥊👀 #Boxing
#OnThisDay in 2019, Andy Ruiz Jr shocked the world. Dropped Anthony Joshua four times, stopped him in round 7, and became the unified heavyweight champion in one of boxing’s wildest modern upsets. Real-life Rocky moment.

#OnThisDay May 31, 1997 Vince Phillips shocked the boxing world by stopping an undefeated Kostya Tszyu in the 10th round to win the IBF Junior Welterweight title. 🤯🥊 Tszyu was heavily favored and already looking ahead to a mega-fight with Oscar De La Hoya, but Phillips had other plans. He broke Tszyu down with a relentless right hand in a bloody, absolute war. One of the most underrated 90s title fights. #boxing #history
O’Shaquie Foster vs Raymond Ford is the type of fight boxing needs more of.
Two elite fighters.
No marinating.
No excuses.
Just find out who’s better. 👏
Who wins?
#OnThisDay in 1987, a 20-year-old Mike Tyson defended his unified WBC & WBA Heavyweight titles by stopping Pinklon Thomas in round 6. 👑
The finishing sequence in this fight is absolute poetry in motion—a 15-punch combination of pure leverage, speed, and bad intentions. Thomas had a legendary chin, but nobody was surviving that onslaught. Peak Iron Mike. 🥊💥
#OnThisDay May 27, 1983. Marvelous Marvin Hagler defends his undisputed Middleweight crown and adds the inaugural IBF belt to his collection with a 4th-round KO of Wilford Scypion.
The stance switches, the defense, the power. Modern fighters could learn a lot from studying this version of Hagler. 🥊Collateral damage.
