⚠️ MVP Promotions x ESPN? 📺, WBC SANCTIONS Usyk vs Rico BUT Women STILL fight 2-minute rounds?!😒

#mostvaluablepromotions #Usyk #RouseyCarano Women’s boxing is entering a new era, and Most Valuable Promotions is leading the charge globally. 🌍🔥🥊 On this episode of BWBSP, Cynthia and Jeandra break down the massive MVP press conference at Madison Square Garden and what it means for the future of the sport. With champions, Olympians, and rising stars set to appear, including Amanda Serrano, Alycia Baumgardner, Shadasia Green, Stephanie Han, Holly Holm, Tamm Thibeault, Oshae Jones, and Tiara Brown, is MVP building the most powerful platform in women’s boxing history? We also dive into MVP’s major Sky Sports deal and UK debut on April 5, 2026, at Olympia in London, featuring a stacked all-women’s card: • Caroline Dubois vs Terri Harper for the WBC vs WBO straps • Ellie Scotney vs Mayelli Flores for the undisputed super-bantamweight championship Is the UK becoming the new global hotspot for women’s boxing? But the landscape gets even more complicated with elite fighters outside the MVP umbrella: • Claressa Shields vs Mikaela Mayer at 163 catchweight? • Gabriela Fundora is defending undisputed at 112 and possibly moving to 115 • The dangerous super flyweight division featuring Mizuki Hiruta, Ginny Fuchs, Adelaida Ruiz, Jasmine Artiga, and Emma Dolan. -MVP Promotions has entered MMA and will be putting on Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano, a massive event, live on Netflix! We also debate the business side of women’s boxing and whether fighters will finally get paid what they deserve, or will negotiations stall the biggest fights? Then things get controversial. The WBC has sanctioned a crossover fight between unified heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk and GLORY kickboxing legend Rico Verhoeven on May 23, 2026, at the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, promoted as “Glory of Giza: Undefeated Icons.” But here’s the question: If the WBC can sanction a crossover heavyweight title fight… why are women still forced to fight 2-minute rounds instead of 3 minutes for their world titles? We break down the double standard. Plus, the boxing internet exploded with hilarious and chaotic X exchanges between Rolly Romero, Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia, and Bill Haney. Is there actually a contract? Who should fight whom? And which fight does boxing REALLY want? We cover it all in a fun, provocative, and unfiltered conversation about the biggest power moves shaping the future of boxing. #WomensBoxing #AmandaSerrano #AlyciaBaumgardner #ClaressaShields #GabrielaFundora #MikaelaMayer #KatieTaylor #CarolineDubois #TerriHarper #EllieScotney #BoxingNews #RyanGarcia #DevinHaney #RollyRomero #RicoVerhoeven #sports #podcast #bwbsp "Best Women's Boxing Show PERIOD" is a Las Vegas-based podcast, in partnership with Blue Wire Network, hosted by Cynthia Conte and Jeandra LeBeauf.
