Powcast Boxing Daily: Dy Retains as Schofield Wins Gold and Mendoza Stuns Sandoval

Filipino fight fans woke up to a mixed set of results, with Rolando Dy defending his bare knuckle crown while Jayson Mama suffered an early defeat in the United States.

Photo courtesy of Carl Jammes Martin On social media, undefeated Ifugao boxer Carl Jammes Martin has been giving fans hints that a major fight was coming. While many were hoping it would finally be a big opportunity, only a few truly expected something of this magnitude, especially since Martin has yet to consistently compete in what many would consider high-profile fights. “Mangarap para sa Pamilya at Bayan, lumaban nang buong Puso, at dalhin ang bandila ng Pilipinas tungo sa tagumpay. 🇵🇭 Mabuhay tayong lahat!

BoxRec Refuses to Record Tapales, Laurente and Thailand Pro Boxing Fights; Sean Gibbons Calls for Investigation

Wondering why the recent fights of two-division unified world champion Marlon Tapales and boxing prospect and IBF Pan Pacific Lightweight champion Criztian Pitt Laurente have yet to appear on BoxRec, the internationally recognized boxing record database, even though the fights took place about two weeks ago?
