Boxing Results Roundup: Snooki Boxing's Debut, Frampton Knocks Out Hughes, Spinks Beats Powell
London, England Carl Frampton KO-7 Kris Hughes: Frampton (12-0, 8 KO) is all about calling out British super bantamweight champ Scott Quigg right now, but while Frampton looked good beating Hughes, Quigg is a whole other ball of wax. Quigg can punch, for one thing, which Hughes (15-2, 1 KO) cannot....

Fight Previews: Zab Judah-Kaizer Mabuza, Ismayl Sillakh-Yordanis Despaigne and More
HBO's card isn't the only game in town this weekend. I took a look at those two big fights earlier today, and Dave Oakes previewed the Gary Sykes-Carl Johanneson fight even earlier today, but there's still more boxing to discuss, so let's discuss it.

Vitali vs. Haye, Cruz brings it, and more weekend news and notes
It looks like Vitali Klitschko vs. David Haye is a done deal. We'll give this the full treatment at some point, but there have been so many rumors flying around on these guys that have turned out to be false that I'm loath to give this the full treatment until it's been more widely reported. ...

Some news and notes from around the boxing world this week... According to BoxingScene, Jorge Linares is calling out Humberto Soto. It would be a great step-up fight if it were to happen, but I can't help but feel that Linares still hasn't built up enough of a name to make this a decent money...
Ranking the Welterweights: June 18, 2009
