Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bob Arum Conversation With Dan Rafael 10 26 26 | Fight Freaks Unite Podcast
Q: What do you think happened between him and Zuffa then? I mean, to get a release after three months of having never boxed for them, that would be my guess.
Arum argues that the reported financial expectations were difficult to sustain, saying the proposed sums depended on outside funding and that paying a fighter $15 million would make it hard to earn money from a fight.
Bob Arum Conversation With Dan Rafael 10 26 26 | Fight Freaks Unite Podcast
Q: Can you sort of maybe fill in the landscape of what you think you could map out for O'Shaquie come next year?
Arum says Lomachenko is expected to fight Charlie Suarez in February. The winner would face Foster in the spring or summer, with the eventual winner then pursuing the other title.
Canelo Alvarez Returns in Saudi Arabia + Lomachenko Comeback And Devin Haney Fight Date | BFW Preview Podcast
Q: What is the likelihood that Raymond Muratalla will fight Shakur Stevenson after the WBO ruling?
Rafael says Stevenson must decide whether to negotiate or participate in a purse bid, and may need to accept a lower payday than he has sought. If he does not take the fight, he may have to vacate the belt.
Canelo Alvarez Returns in Saudi Arabia + Lomachenko Comeback And Devin Haney Fight Date | BFW Preview Podcast
Q: What are we getting from Canelo Alvarez in his return fight against Christian Mbilli?
Rafael says Canelo's current level is unknowable after his year away and elbow surgery. He expects Canelo to be capable of winning a decision, while noting Mbilli is younger, focused, and aggressive.
Daniel Dubois Destroys Fabio Wardley and Sebastian Fundora Wins Easily + Devin Haney Fighting Shakur Stevnson? | Fight Freaks Unite Recap
Q: When is the final bell not the final bell?
Rafael says the rules require a fighter knocked down after the bell to get up before the count of ten, but argues the bout should have ended once Hadribeaj rose during the count. He says the referee's knockout ruling denied Hadribeaj a decision loss.
