With Inoue vs Fulton, Spence vs Crawford, Joshua vs Helenius and Usyk vs Dubois all taking place over a 31-day period, boxing eyes have firmly been set on the current generation of stars whereas this weekend, we’ll get a glimpse into the future with two highly anticipated prospect shows in two nights.

One.

That’s how many stoppage wins Anthony Joshua had in the last five years heading into his fight with Robert Helenius this weekend.

In what was meant to Anthony Joshua vs Dillian Whyte, this Saturday sees AJ top the bill against former sparring partner and large, to say the least, heavyweight Robert Helenius.

If you’d told us a week ago that we’d be just around the corner from an Anthony Joshua versus Robert Helenius clash, we would have politely suggested you’d lost your marbles given the fact the Brit was preparing for a rematch with Dillian Whyte.

There’s never a dull moment in boxing and if there were ever five days to optimise that, then it’s most certainly been the last 120 hours. 

On a day when the boxing world was rocked by the news that Dillian Whyte had returned ‘adverse analytical findings’ on a random drugs test with VADA, it was up to the heavily criticised Jake Paul versus Nate Diaz fight to shine a spotlight on the sport for all the right reasons.

As time ticks closer to Jake Paul and Nate Diaz’s fight in Dallas, it also ticks towards the inevitable collapse of the very scene it represents.

Terence Crawford carved his name into boxing immortality with a stunning performance against Errol Spence in Las Vegas.

This Saturday sees two of the biggest names in boxing go head to head in one if not THEE the most highly anticipated fight in the past decade. Errol Spence will be looking to solidify his claims as one of the best welterweights of all time when he takes on former undisputed super-lightweight champion Terence Crawford in Las Vegas.

The bright lights of Las Vegas will shine for boxing this weekend as Terence Crawford and Errol Spence do battle for the undisputed welterweight championship of the world.

Naoya Inoue put on a display worthy of becoming a four-division world champion as he took apart Stephen Fulton in Tokyo.

It should have been the night on which Maxi Hughes finally capitalised on his boxing purple patch, leaving Oklahoma as mandatory for a major lightweight title. Somehow, it wasn’t.

Maxi Hughes’ train pulls in to the ‘Sooner State’ of Oklahoma this weekend as he looks to preserve one of British boxing’s most captivating stories.

A big fight took was had and a big fight was touted, however it was a certain debut that had boxing fans gushing.

Josh Kelly makes outing number one of the year this weekend as he looks to edge ever closer to a shot at world honours amongst a vibrant super-welterweight scene.

For a while, it appeared as though the fight wouldn’t happen. The usual blame game was being played out in the media, and the latest chapter in a rivalry which developed at amateur level, before intensifying in the professional ranks, looked unlikely to get over the line.

The 147lb division’s successors take centre stage this weekend as they vie for significance heading into the year’s crown jewel - Errol Spence vs Terence Crawford.

Savannah Marshall dethroned Franchon Crews-Dezurn to crown herself the undisputed super-middleweight champion, underpinning her legacy as one of female boxing’s greats.

After a week away from the screens, British boxing returns as Matchroom and Boxxer open up July’s schedule.

IFL TV, the world’s biggest boxing media platform, will stage its first live event in August as legendary promoter and Chairman of Matchroom Sport, Eddie Hearn, joins host Kugan Cassius for an in-depth discussion covering multiple topics, including his passion for the industry, the journey which has taken him to this point and his thoughts on some of the sport’s biggest stars.
