    Ep.395 Did Boxing Rob Rico?

    Samp&Chance Boxing is back with another loaded episode as we break down one of the strangest and most talked-about heavyweight fights of the year — Oleksandr Usyk vs. Rico Verhoeven from the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. Did Rico shock the world? Was the stoppage controversial? And what does this mean for the future of crossover fights in boxing? We dive deep into the spectacle, the atmosphere, and the fallout from “Glory in Giza.” We also preview a huge weekend of action as Dmitry Bivol returns to defend his light heavyweight titles against mandatory challenger Michael Eifert. Is this just a tune-up fight for Bivol or could Eifert pull off the upset? Plus, we break down the elite stylistic matchup between O’Shaquie Foster and Raymond Ford in a high-level chess match at 130 pounds. Can Foster’s slick counterpunching frustrate Ford, or is Ford ready for another world title run? We also take a look at the latest MVP card from El Paso and discuss whether MVP continues to change the boxing business landscape. Which prospects stood out and what does the promotion’s future look like moving forward? As always, we bring you the biggest headlines making news across boxing, international and Canadian boxing history, hot takes, fight predictions, and plenty of debate you won’t hear anywhere else. Heavyweights, controversy, world titles, future stars, and boxing chaos — it’s all this week on Samp&Chance Boxing. So sit back and relax and thank you for letting us into your ears.

    Ep.388 A Weekend of Broken Faces?

    This week on Samp&Chance Boxing, we break down one of the biggest weekends in boxing in 2026 — and trust us, it delivered. We start in Tokyo, where Naoya Inoue proved once again why he’s on top of the pound-for-pound mountain, surviving a fierce challenge from Junto Nakatani in a tactical war. Was this a passing-of-the-torch moment that didn’t quite happen, or did Nakatani expose cracks in “The Monster”? Inoue retained his undisputed crown by unanimous decision, but the fight turned into a late-round battle that had the boxing world buzzing.Then we head to Las Vegas, where David Benavidez made a massive statement, moving up in weight and stopping Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramírez to become a three-division champion. Is Benavidez now one of the most dangerous fighters in the sport — and who can actually deal with his pressure and power at cruiserweight? We preview this weekend’s heavyweight showdown as Fabio Wardley steps into the biggest fight of his career against Daniel Dubois. Is Wardley ready for the elite level, or is Dubois about to remind everyone why he’s still one of the most feared punchers in the division? Plus: International boxing history and Canadian boxing history spotlight, top headlines shaking up the sport right now and what’s next for Inoue, Benavidez, and the heavyweight division. All that and the unfiltered takes you expect from Samp&Chance Boxing. So sit back and relax and thank you for letting us into your ears.
