News about Jeff Horn

After copping a pounding on an otherwise ground-breaking night for women's boxing, sport-hopping Tayla Harris is unlikely to attend Melbourne AFLW training on Thursday. Milli Agboegbulen left Harris literally battered and blue after battling the Australian super-welterweight title with an eight-round defeat on Wednesday. Harris, who was coordinating the first televised all-female card in Australian professional boxing history, was hoping to win another big prize while competing in the AFLW for the defending champion Demons.

Jeff Horn, a schoolteacher turned world champion, has called it quits on one of Australia's finest careers in recent history by announcing his retirement at the age of 35. Horn officially made the decision on Sunday morning, the sixth anniversary of his most awaited victory over boxing hero Manny Pacquiao (left) in front of 51,000 fans at Suncorp Stadium. It's been a remarkable career, with Anthony Mundine (right) thinning him in 90 seconds.

The Brisbane 35-year-old is expected to make his earliest appearance in a media conference at Suncorp Stadium on Sunday, just six years after he famously shocked legend Manny Pacquiao at the venue to win a world championship. Horn (20-3-1) defended his WBO welterweight belt once more, until losing to Terence Crawford in Las Vegas in 2018.

Tim Tszyu, a boxer, has confirmed he will make his WBO interim world championship defense against tough Mexican opponent Carlos Ocampo, and has threatened to put his opponents on blast. Tszyu will return to Queensland for the first time since beating Jeff Horn three years ago to face Mexico's No. 1 ranked super welterweight on Sunday. With a record of 34 victories and just two losses to world class fighters, including undisputed American star Errol Spence jnr.

Michael Zerafa, an Australian boxer, has discussed the tragic deaths of two of his relatives and his efforts to become Australia's new star of boxing after defeating Tim Tszyu. When Zerafa pulled out of his pending fight against Tszyu in 2021, he was branded the most despised man in Australian boxing, but the Melbourne middleweight has since earned himself a world championship shot against Esquiva Falcao. If Zerafa wins the IBF Championship, it will be a dream come true for the 30-year-old who lost two friends in recent years under horrific circumstances.

After Saturday's tense WBO super featherweight title match against Emanuel Navarrete in Phoenix, several boxing fans and pundits are accusing Aussie Liam Wilson of cheating. Wilson was 'robbed,' according to his team, who was given 27 seconds to recover from a trademark left hook that floored him in the fourth round. However, some fight enthusiasts are now claiming Wilson beat Navarrete while his glove was touching the ground, a foul.

Jeff Horn, a former boxing world champion, has posted a graphic illustration of a bizarre occurrence that has left him needing a titanium plate stuck in his throat and questioning his sanity. When sparring 85kg amateur Simon Cooper in 2016, Horn, who competed at welterweight, was shot in the chest with a wide left hook. The injury ended his career's best fight against knockout king Randall Bailey and required the Australiane to recover at Brisbane Private Hospital.

Michael Zerafa, the champion in Australia, has denied allegations that he was too afraid to box actor Tim Tszyu as a war of words wages up with his ex-trainer Sam Labruna, which may erupt into a hefty court contest involving near $500,000.

If 'GGG' lives up to his promise to compete for two middleweight championship belts, Zerafa will compete with Jeff Horn and George Kambosos Jr in a big title fight. Golovkin is 40 and coming off a humiliating loss to Canelo Alvarez (pictured right), but the Aussie will still be a big leap in class thanks to his chin, ringcraft, and his incredible punching ability.

Liam Paro, the undefeated Australian pugilist, won his first match of his career - and the attention of the boxing world - with a stunning first-round defeat of Brock Jarvis in Brisbane recently. Paro's victory solidifies his bid for a world championship shot in the upcoming future, and he's revealed the tragic motivations behind his aspirations.

Spence (right) has the WBC, WBA, and IBF titles, while Crawford (left) has the WBO belt, making him the first undisputed welterweight champion in less than a decade. A match between the American duo has been on many boxing wish lists for a long time, particularly after Crawford, the undisputed super-lightweight champion and then-two-weight champion, made the jump to welterweight champion and then-second-weight champion.
