After a day off, Chris Algieri, Paulie Malignaggi and Coach Robert Garcia are back on BoxingScene Today for a wide-ranging discussion, beginning with the fact that they all all have World Cup fever.
Getting back to boxing, the group agrees that money will eventually bring an accord among the Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua promoters, then they take a closer look at Keyshawn Davis, as he pursues a showdown with Devin Haney.
Next comes Rico Verhoeven’s denied appeal over the stoppage of the Oleksandr Usyk fight (Paulie admits he’d rather not see a rematch, while Chris says he’d like Rico to fight Francis Ngannou) and a discussion whether David Benavidez, who is getting close to a cruiserweight unification fight with Noel Mikaelian, should be facing Dmitry Bivol instead?
The show closes out with the question “Is Moses Itauma ready for a step up to Filip Hrgovic?” and then a look at reader comments.
Another strong episode with strong opinions, a few laughs and the insights of three of the most astute minds in boxing.
