Gervonta Davis(Instagram) Devin Haney is coming off a massive victory over George Kambosos, and Gervonta Davis won his fight against Rolly Romero by highlight-reel knockout. It only makes sense that the regular champion Gervonta Davis and the unified lightweight champion Devin Haney fight. The only problem with this fight is that Devin Haney is not a big name yet and won the titles but has no defenses. Gervonta has over a 90% knockout ratio, making him more interesting to watch. Many experts have said there is no need for a Kambosos rematch because Devin dominated. The next fight for both boxers should be to unify their titles.

Artur Beterbiev(Instagram) The fight occurred at Madison Square Garden in New York City, Joe Smith Jr's hometown. Even with the hometown crowd by his side, Joe Smith Jr. seemed to give up on the idea early that he could be Artur Beterbiev. He didn't have to connect with Joe Smith Jr. that much for him to get a few knockdowns. One of the knockdowns was a slip, but it came from a punch that seemed to have knocked him off balance.

Joe Smith Jr. is the WBO light heavyweight World Champion from Long Island and fights and trains in New York City. At 13, Smith Jr. moved home with his father, Joe Smith Sr., and for the first time, put on a pair of gloves at the Atlantic Veterans Memorial Boxing Club in Bellport, Long Island. He believes that boxing saved his life by keeping him off the streets and out of danger.

Devin Haneye.g. (Instagram) Devin Haney is only 23 years old, born in San Francisco, and he is fighting to unify the lightweight division against George Kambosos. Kambosos rallied to defeat Teofimo Lopez and snatched the titles in a close win. Now, Kambosos has a new goal to defeat Devin Haney and unify all the belts in the division.

Rolly Romeroe.g. (Instagram) Rolly Romero grew up in North Los Vegas, NV. He lived in poverty, hearing gunshots as he slept at night. Learning boxing at a young age from his father, Romero also has a sister who is a champion Judo fighter. Romero has been boxing since the age of nine. After having a short, successful amateur career, Romero signed with Mayweather promotions in 2016. He has been criticized for his rough fighting style by boxing experts. No matter what you say about his style, he's fighting what most people think is the best fighter in the 135-pound division.

Errol Spence and Trainer Derrick Jamese.g. Instagram. AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, held one of the year's best fights with Errol Spence jr. and Yordenis Ugas. Spence got the TKO victory in round 10 after dominating Ugas after round 1. Spence's first round was rough, but he made some adjustments and dominated every round except for round 6. During round 6, Spence got hit with some big shots because he lost his mouthpiece, and he searched for it. After he turned to look for his mouthpiece, he was clipped by Ugas and sent across the ring. I had Ugas winning round 1 and 6 because of that. All the other rounds went to Spence.

Edgar Berlanga, an up-and-coming name in the sport of boxing, but he didn't produce a big finish versus Steve Rolls. There is still a significant opportunity for Berlanga to be the center of New York boxing. Mike Tyson is the most prominent New York boxer in history, and we can remember the excitement his fights drew in the late eighties and early nineties. Some other notable fighters from New York, like Shannon Briggs and Teofimo Lopez, are great, but Berlanga is unique because he is Puerto Rican. Puerto Ricans have played a significant role in New York's entertainment culture. Even when you look at hip-hop and the impact Puerto Ricans have had on break dancing, graffiti, and rapping. Big Pun is still considered one of the best rappers of all time. Then you can talk about the impact of Lin-Manuel Miranda and his play "Hamilton" and the many awards, including a Grammy he won for best play. So, you can see how Edgar Berlanga's background has already impacted his fight attendance. He drew some of the biggest names in music, including top hip-hop stars. There is a lot of pressure for Berlanga to come out and perform at a high level.

"It was a beautiful right hand that hurt him. He was a tough guy and he made me work all night. At 19-years-old going 10-rounds, I felt great and my wind was great. I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. I'm blessed to be in this position and we definitely can't wait to be back in 2022.” ~ Vito Mielnicki, Jr.
