With all the meaningful action of the first three months of the year complete, boxing fans are now looking toward the spring and the continually developing schedule while also looking back at some big fights that have already gone down.
Naoya Inoue, the undisputed junior featherweight champion and pound-for-pound elite fighter, was in action on Jan. 24 when he defended his four world titles against Ye Joon Kim. Inoue was originally scheduled to face Sam Goodman on Christmas Eve, but Goodman suffered a cut in training camp and the fight was postponed. Goodman then suffered another cut ahead of the rescheduled Jan. 24 date and was removed from the fight altogether. As expected, Inoue made quick work of Kim to kick off 2025 with a bang.
Business further picked up in February. On Feb. 1, two of boxing’s brightest young stars, David Benavidez and David Morrell, clashed with major a potential major future opportunity on the line. Benavidez dominated the action to take a unanimous decision win and was seemingly in line to face the winner of the Feb. 22 rematch between undisputed light heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol.
However, Benavidez will need to wait a while longer before he gets that opportunity. Bivol won the rematch by majority decision, evening his rivalry with Beterbiev at 1-1 and setting up an almost certain rubber match between the two best light heavyweights on the planet.
While April is lacking in big fights, the first weekend in May is loaded with familiar names. A May 2 tripleheader features Ryan Garcia vs. Rolando Romero, Devin Haney vs. Jose Ramirez and Teofimo Lopez Jr. vs. Arnold Barboza Jr. May 3 features a headliner to crown an undisputed supper middleweight champion when Canelo Alvarez faces William Scull. The weekend then ends on May 4 with Naoya Inoue vs. Ramon Cardenas for Inoue’s undisputed junior featherweight championship.
Take a look at the calendar for 2025 below.
