Saturday's fight between YouTube bloggers KSI and Logan Paul was watched by more people than any previous Boxing match on the dazn platform. This was told on SiriusXM Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn.
In addition, according to Hearn, sales of paid broadcasts of this fight in the UK (where the dazn service does not work) were better than the June fight between Anthony Joshua and Andy Ruiz (this fight gathered 562 thousand viewers in the UK on a paid subscription — a relatively low figure, due to the fact that it began at half-past four in the morning local time).

WBC lightweight champion Devin Haney believes he can beat WBA and WBO lightweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko.
"I see in him shortcomings, whom can take advantage of in combat with him.
And I can also use my advantages. First of all, this is my jab. I think my jab is the best in Boxing right now.
I'm only 20 years old, but I feel faster, stronger, bigger. I can beat him, " Haney said.
The WBC has notified its organization's lightweight champion, Devin Haney, that he should begin negotiations to organize a fight against mandatory Challenger Javier Fortuna. The deadline for reaching an agreement on the fight is December 13, which is scheduled for bidding for the right to organize this fight.
Recall that Haney won the interim WBC championship belt in September of this year, defeating the Russian boxer Zaur Abdullayev. Then Haney hoped that it will eventually lead to the appointment of his fight against the WBC, WBO and WBA lightweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko, but the WBC gave the Ukrainian the status of franchise champion, and Haney made a full WBC title holder. On November 9, Haney successfully defended his belt in a fight against Alfredo Santiago and does not lose hope for a fight against Lomachenko.

23-year-old WBO first Middleweight champion Jaime Mungia, along with his coach, the legendary Eric Morales, began preparations for the next defense of his title, which will take place on January 11 next year, presumably in San Antonio, USA, according to ESPN Deportes. We will remind that in September Mungia defended the title in a duel against Patrick Alloty, and then before a duel and after it he said that can rise in average weight. The fight against Alloti was the first for the Morales-Mungia tandem.
The opponent of the champion is still unknown. On November 30, a match between number one Carlos Adames and number two Patrick Teixeira will determine the new mandatory Challenger for the WBO title, owned by Mungia, but it is obvious that his winner will not be able to go to fight against the champion in January.

Last month, a specialist of the Voluntary anti-doping Association (VADA) complained to the Nevada state Athletic Commission that he could not take samples for doping analysis from 33-year-old former world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (51-3-1, 33 KO). NSAC immediately revoked the boxer's local license.
Because of this problem, the fight of the Mexican against Daniel Jacobs (35-3, 29 KO), which was planned for December 20 in Las Vegas, was moved to Phoenix (Arizona).
As promoter Eddie Hearn told BoxingScene, the problem with Marshal VADA was before signing the contract for the fight. Now, according to the functionary, under the contract Chavez is obliged to obey the requirements of VADA, whenever and wherever its experts want to test it for "zapreschenka".
"We'll see. If he misses even one sampling for analysis, he won't get a fight," Hearn explained briefly and clearly.
In 2017, Jacobs met in the ring with Kazakhstan's Gennady Golovkin (40-1-1, 35 KO) and lost to him by unanimous decision.
