News about Michael Watson

Since being 'burnt out,' Michael Watson, an Iowa resident, left a lucrative career as a music photographer, he instead pursued another lifelong passion. He first caught pro-wrestling around a decade ago when he rode a five-hour road trip to Chicago to photograph an event there. He's shared how he became hooked on Huck magazine. He says that the pro-wrestling experience paralleled his capture of the Midwestern DIY music scene, and that he was able to adapt to the new setting. Watson's stunning up-close-and-personal photographs capture a mixture of action, posed portraits, and candid moments from the scenes.

Having previously stated that cutting weight will result in head injury, the two-weight world champion has voiced his doubt that cutting weight will result in head injury. On October 8, Chris Eubank Jr. and Benn will meet at the O2 Arena in London, reigniting a family feud three decades after their fathers met in the second instalment of British boxing's most legendary rivalry. Eubank Snr released a statement on The Fight Is Right: 'Dear Spencer and The Fight Is Right' The Fight Is Right' Boycott the war is on full throttle. You should know how three pounds under the middleweight at 33 years old would do. This is how brain injuries occur.'

On Monday, Chris Eubank Snr vowed that he would not allow his son to fight below 160 pounds, despite the fact that the fight was decided at a 157lb catchweight. The fight is not over, as only fighters themselves will pull out of matches, but Snr's words have resulted in Benn mocking Jr.'s remark: "Grounded" was posted on Instagram, followed by a baby emoji. On October 8, the two will meet at the O2 Arena in London.

On October 8, Chris Eubank Jr. and Benn will meet at the O2 Arena in London, reigniting a family feud three decades after their fathers met in the second instalment of British boxing's greatest rivalry. Both sides have confirmed that the war will go on as planned, as only the boxer will pull their son out of a fight, but on a video call involving both Nigel and Conor Benn, a senior told Sportsmail that he would not allow his son to fight below the 160lb middleweight limit and begged for assistance. If they're not going to listen to me, they'll have to listen to my King's Counsel,' the 56-year-old said. The argument does not take place; Eubank has already argued that Junior had been withdrawn from the war, a charge denied by sources around the conflict.

EXCLUSIVE: Michael Watson will be inducted into the British boxing hall of fame later this month in honour of the inspiration he received in his fight against serious brain injury in the ring 31 years ago. The British Ex-Boxers Association will honor the three-time world champion, who spent 40 days in a coma following Chris Eubank's brutal knockout in 1991, at a dinner in London on September 18. Watson has run a marathon and has raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for charities after suffering from his horrific injuries, which required Watson to rewrite, read, write, and walk after six years in a wheelchair.
