Even though both sports are known for intense action and rough characters, boxing and poker aren’t usually combined. This didn’t stop Gus Hansen (known as one of the biggest full tilt poker names)and Danish poker pro Theo Jorgensen from duking it out. Both know as skilled poker players in both the online poker and live tournament circuit, did quite well as shown in the video.

2017 Maxboxing fight of the year: Anthony Joshua knocks out Wladimir Klitschko

Sub Lead01-Jan-18by John J. Raspanti
The fight of the year for 2017 took place across the pond in April. The bout had all the classic components that make boxing so compelling and fascinating. The young man, with only 18 fights under his belt, would be taking on the former champion, who had held the heavyweight championship for over 10 years. The two had sparred a few years before. The older fighter took the younger man under his wing, mentoring him. They liked each other. By John J. Raspanti

Klitschko seeks redemption

Sub Lead26-Apr-17by John J. Raspanti
Wladimir Klitschko has accomplished plenty as a boxer. He sports a record of 64-4, 53 KO’s, is a three-time world champion and defended his IBF version of the championship 18 times. Awesome credentials. Or are they? From a fan perspective, Klitschko is one of the most disrespected world champions of all time. I often think, is the scrutiny shoveled on Wlad’s resume justified?

Sub Lead13-Dec-15by Rish ap_Wiliam
By Benny Henderson Jr.: Anybody who follows any contact sport knows that it is a young man’s game. Professional football players rarely play on when they reach their mid to late thirties. The average age of a pro player is the mid-twenties. As you get older your skills start to decline, the speed goes first, your legs get weary, your back gets tired, the gas tank does not hold as much as it did when you were young. But the heart, the heart still beats strong, and with its desire, sometimes
