Former undisputed Josh Taylor (19-2, 13 KOS) will fight for the relevance and redeeming of May when he brings his debut on Veldma against Vbo Esaman’s European Belt (21-1, 8 KOS) in Glasgow. Card flow Live on Dazn (22:00 Local / 17:00 ET / 14:00 PT) from hydroelectric power plant.
It is the first taylor fight in Scotland from the controversial Catteral Saga and there is no margin for an error this time. It is older, heavy and who fired the losses back. Let’s see if the crowd still believes.
Taylor’s Homecoming: Redemption tour or retired road?
A long drop in Taylor has passed. After cleaning 140 with a victory via Baranic, program, he slipped into the fog of trained, injuries, and finally, two clear defeats – one for Catterlal and the other against Theofimo Lopez, where he looked like the spirit of his old self.
Now in 34, enters the weight of full wolves. And will not respect his past. Test what is left of the present. Essuman may not be elite, but he is not deserted. And if Taylor looks flat, tired or uninterested, Glasgow could turn hostile quickly.
This is more than just a return. It is a crossroads in career. Win, and maybe get another big day. To lose, and the conversation turns from “what’s next?” Yes “What went wrong?”
Essaman filmed to destroy the legacy – and he knows that
Essaman is not here for payroll. The former British, Commonwealth and IBF Euro Champ renovated after its only loss at Harry SCRFF last year. Since then, he has crashed Oven Cooper and Ben Vaughan – and it is clearly clear: he wants to fight the world level.
It has a motor, has experience and already broken the calipers in the ring. Ask Danny Ball. Essuman is not afraid of Glasgow. He fought under the lights on Vembley and Manchester. The stage will not scare him – and the name of Taylor will not even.
If he wins, he jumps straight in VBO Mix at 147. If he loses close? He will still be out of more credibility than when he entered.
Unorganic British Heavy Woman Itauma (11-0, 9 Kos) returned 24. Maja, was facing former NFL Linebacker-Boker-Boker Mike Balogun (21-1, 16 KOS) on the hydropower of this in Glasgow.
Balogun brings greatness, not danger – Moses should break it
Itauma destroyed Demsey McKean in two minutes of apartments last December in Riyadh. Since then, the fans have been waiting several months for their next victim. Enter Mike Ballogin: Southpyp, a hard guy, a padded record and most famous in that Murat Gasiev became tight for six minutes.
Of course, Balogun has 21 victories, but not to pretend that these names mean something. His last exit? Win Points over Lamont magistics – Walking definition “Safe opponent”.
His shop window. Balogun is here to eat shots, try to shelle and may survive long enough to test Itaumet’s patience. If it’s even possible.
Moses Marching – But the actual danger is forward
The Golden Boy Kueensberry wants a belt. And with other dominant who moves one step closer to the title eliminator. If it looks sharply, you can bet names like Hrgovic, Makhmudov or Kabayel start to hover in the owls.
For now, the speed is a speed. But itauma does not only beat opponents – he erases them. And if the Balogun becomes messy or cunning for a moment, he could wake up staring at the lights.
It is not about proving more about it. This is beating the beating boxes to great wrinkles.
