Boxing calendar 2024: The next title fight
The next boxing title fight will take place in Japan in mid-December.
On December 14, Ryosuke Nishida and Anuchai Donsua will fight for the IBF bantamweight title in Osaka (Japan).
Who is the favorite? According to the bookmakers’ odds and forecasts, Nishida is the heavy favorite to win the crown. Donsua will therefore only enter the ring as the underdog.
Next boxing match 2024 – Usyk vs. Fury 2 in December
With the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury, boxing fans will receive a Christmas present in advance!
Usyk vs. Fury 2 will take place on December 21 in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia).
Three world championship crowns are at stake in this rematch: Usyk currently holds the WBA, WBO and WBC titles, which he took from Fury in the first fight.
If the boxing betting odds of the bookmakers in Germany are anything to go by, the Ukrainian will retain the three titles. Usyk is seen as the clear favorite.
The Cat” clearly dominated the first duel in May of this year. With his excellent footwork and high ring IQ, he had the “Gypsy King” under control at all times and almost defeated him early. However, Fury was ultimately able to avoid a knockout.
Fury’s desire for revenge and his height speak in his favor. He is clearly superior to his opponent in terms of reach. If he can exploit this advantage in the rematch, the three world championship belts could go to the “Gypsy King”…
When is the next boxing match?
The next boxing match of international importance is scheduled to take place in February 2025.
The heavyweight boxing match between Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois is being considered and is already being planned. The venue will be Riyadh (Saudi Arabia).
It is also the rematch for the first clash. This took place in September at London’s Wembley Stadium and Dubois won by knockout to claim the vacant IBF title.
Dubois is due to defend this gold belt in February. Probably against AJ.
If, contrary to expectations, it doesn’t go against Joshua, then DD will get on the ropes against someone else. “Daniel will defend his title in February, and if it’s not Joshua, then against someone who is one of the five best,” says his promoter Frank Warren.
Next boxing match for Agit Kabayel
The next boxing match for Germany’s heavyweight star Agit Kabayel will take place next year. Only when and where is still open. But there is already an opponent.
The IBF has scheduled a “Final Eliminator” fight to decide who will be the mandatory challenger to the current title holder Daniel Dubois. Agit Kabayel (25-0, 17 KOs) from Bochum is to meet Martin Bakole (21-1(1), 16 KOs) from Congo.
Bakole, currently ranked 6 by BoxRec, only lost prematurely to Michael Hunter in 2018. Since then, he has celebrated big wins, including against Tony Yoka, Carlos Takam and most recently Jared Anderson, who was considered an up-and-coming US heavyweight.
Kabayel recently won twice with great confidence. After stopping the previously unbeaten Russian Arslanbek Makhmudov early at the end of 2023, he also recently defeated the Cuban upstart Frank Sanchez.
Boxing calendar 2024: The next title fight in December
The next boxing match for a world title is scheduled to take place in March 2025.
Gervonta Davis, reigning WBA lightweight champion since 2019, will face challenger Lamont Roach in Houston (USA) in March. This fight was actually supposed to take place in December 2024, but was postponed. The preferred date is March 1, 2025.
Davis last celebrated a spectacular eight-round knockout against Frank Martin in June. This was also his sixth title defense.
Of course, “The Tank” wants to keep his place on the throne and, according to the boxing odds, he will do so. Davis is considered the clear favorite against (25-1-1, 10 knockouts), who is new to the lightweight division.
