One of the most anticipated heavyweight boxing matches in recent years will finally take place this Saturday.

More...

Deontay Wilder's first clash with Luis Ortiz was a fiery encounter and sparks are again expected to fly during their Las Vegas rematch.

Hughie Fury's burgeoning career takes the next step when he faces former WBA heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin at the O2 Arena on Saturday August 31. The 24-year-old cousin of lineal heavyweight champion Tyson has moved himself back into world title contention once again with an impressive victory over veteran Samuel Peter in Saudi Arabia in July. More...

Anthony Yarde has been expertly managed to an 18-0 record and his connections clearly believe the time is right to challenge WBO light-heavyweight champ Sergey Kovalev. The 36-year-old Russian has a wealth of experience, but three defeats in his last six bouts does have alarm bells ringing. More...

Dillian Whyte can further enhance his claims for a heavyweight world title shot by taking out unbeaten Colombian Oscar Rivas in London. The Body Snatcher has only suffered one defeat in 26 pro fights, when going down to Anthony Joshua with the British and Commonwealth belts on the line in 2015. More...

Manny Pacquiao is fancied to inflict a first defeat on Keith Thurman when challenging for the WBA super welterweight title in Las Vegas.

Amir Khan will be keen to enjoy a morale-boosting early win when returning to action against Australia's Billy Dib in Saudi Arabia.

Josh Warrington takes on Yorkshire rival Kid Galahad in the second defence of his IBF world featherweight title and is 33/50 to retain his belt on points.

Anthony Joshua will be looking to make a big impression on his US debut when facing Andy Ruiz at Madison Square Garden in New York. The Londoner will defend his IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight titles against Mexican-American Ruiz, a late stand-in after Jarrell Miller's failed drugs test. More...

Deontay Wilder will be looking to send a message out to Anthony Joshua when defending his WBC heavyweight title against Dominic Breazeale.

Saul Canelo Alvarez is the box office star of this weekend's middleweight unification bout with Daniel Jacobs and that can help him land a points victory. The Mexican, who boasts a massive following, puts his WBA and WBC belts on the line, while American Jacobs is the current IBF champion. More...

Amir Khan looks to have bitten off more than he can chew by challenging WBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford in New York this weekend. The big-punching American will enter the ring with a perfect 34-0 record in the paid ranks and has secured 25 of those victories inside the distance. More...

Chris Eubank Jnr has the energy, hunger and desire to outwork James DeGale in Saturday night's grudge fight at London's O2 Arena. At 29, the Brighton boxer is four years younger than his opponent and has significantly fewer miles on the clock from a well-managed career. More...

Adrien Broner is nicknamed 'The Problem' and is rated a value bet to prove just that for Manny Pacquiao when they meet in Las Vegas for the WBA welterweight title. The American held this belt for six months back in 2013 and has every chance of getting it back if fully focused on the task in hand. More...

Carl Frampton looks a worthy favourite to prise the IBF featherweight title away from Josh Warrington at Manchester Arena on Saturday night. The 31-year-old Belfast fighter may be the challenger, but he has mixed in much better company than the champion, who is three years his junior. More...

Tony Bellew is no stranger to upsetting the odds but we fear he may have bitten off more than he can chew by taking on undisputed cruiserweight champion Oleksandr Usyk. The Ukrainian southpaw is widely regarded as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters on the planet. More...

George Groves is fancied to prove a level above fellow Englishman Callum Smith in Friday's World Boxing Super Series final in Saudi Arabia. The Londoner suffered a shoulder injury when beating Chris Eubank Jr in his super-middleweight semi but has had plenty of time to recover. More...

Gennady Golovkin will face Saul Alvarez in an eagerly-awaited rematch this weekend and we're backing the Kazakhstan fighter to come out on top in our Canelo vs GGG 2 predictions.

Tyson Fury continues on the comeback trail when facing Italian heavyweight Francesco Pianeta in Belfast and should have little trouble in extending his unbeaten record to 27-0. The former world champion returned from a long absence to brush aside Sefer Seferi and is expected to be sharper for that outing. More...

Joseph Parker can push his claims for a rematch with Anthony Joshua by beating Dillian Whyte at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday night. Both boxers have only suffered one defeat in their pro careers, each losing to heavyweight world champion Joshua, but Parker is a far more polished fighter in our book. More...

Manny Pacquiao gets back in the ring after a 12-month absence to challenge WBA welterweight champion Lucas Martin Matthysse this weekend and can claim a 12th major world title. The 39-year-old should still have enough left to overcome a limited Argentinian opponent in Kuala Lumpur. More...
