Edgar Chairez knows a rematch with Tatsuro Taira is not within immediate reach. However, he’s confident he’ll eventually work himself into a position where a second meet with the Japanese contender makes sense.

Columns Kendall Rogers – August 30, 2024 There’s no doubt that last year’s NCAA Transfer Portal had more ‘high-profile’ players enter, but there’s also no doubt this year’s portal was heavier in numbers.

By Elliot Worsell WHILE it is perhaps not unusual to be informed that a press conference is “open to the public”, it is still strange to comprehend such a thing and indeed consider it completely normal – which, today, it is. Just last week, in fact, there was another press conference about another big fight, which again was being sold – yes, sold – on the basis that it would be “open to the public” and that anyone who is anyone could attend. This, I can only assume, is done in the hope of drawing a crowd and drumming up…
