🥊 Floyd Mayweather vs Jose Luis Castillo II | FULL FIGHT | WBC/RING Lightweight Titles | 7/12/2002
Floyd Mayweather Jr. 28–0 (20 KO) vs. José Luis Castillo 46–5–1 (42 KO) II was a professional boxing match contested on December 7, 2002 for the WBC and The Ring lightweight titles.
Mayweather and Castillo had fought eight months earlier with Mayweather prevailing with a unanimous decision. The decision was seen as controversial as Castillo had clearly outpunched Mayweather 203 to 157 and landed over 100 more power punches than Mayweather.
The fight’s promoter Bob Arum, while not necessarily saying Mayweather didn’t win, called the scoring for the fight, with Mayweather having won comfortably by five points on one scorecard and four points on the other two, “ludicrous” and vowed that he would attempt to schedule a rematch on August 10 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles with the bout being carried on HBO pay-per-view rather than on cable. However, Arum’s plans were scuttled when Mayweather refused to fight in Los Angeles, claiming he could not trust the judges and did not want to fight in front of what expected to be a largely Mexican crowd that would be in favor of Castillo.
As a result of Mayweather’s refusal to fight in Los Angeles, the fight was rescheduled to take place in Nevada’s Mandalay Bay Events Center on October 5 with the fight happening on a standard telecast of HBO World Championship Boxing rather than on HBO pay-per-view.
In preparation for the rematch with Mayweather, Castillo took a tune-up fight with Verdell Smith, defeating him by third-round knockout in his native Mexico in early August.
While training for the fight in late September, Castillo developed a case of Achilles tendinitis, resulting in the fight being postponed until December 7. Though Castillo was expected to be healed by October 19, Arum opted to move the fight to December so as to avoid competition from the 2002 World Series.
Originally, the Mayweather–Castillo rematch was to be the main event of a boxing card that featured WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko defending his title against Jameel McCline as the featured undercard bout. However, when Mayweather no-showed a press conference promoting the card three days before the event, Arum, having tired of Mayweather’s antics, decided to flip the two fights with the Klitschko–McCline bout taking the main event slot, while the Mayweather–Castillo fight was moved to the undercard.

🌩️THUNDER vs LIGHTNING⚡️ | Julio Cesar Chavez vs Meldrick Taylor I | FULL FIGHT | WBC/IBF Titles
Julio César Chávez vs. Meldrick Taylor, billed as Thunder Meets Lightning, was a professional boxing match contested on March 17, 1990, for the WBC and IBF light welterweight championship. Its title was an allusion to the punching power of Chávez and fast hand speed of Taylor.
Julio César Chávez had an undefeated record of 68–0 with 55 wins by knockout and had won world championships in three weight classes: super featherweight, lightweight and, the previous year against Roger Mayweather, the WBC light welterweight title.
Meldrick Taylor had won, at only 17 years, a gold medal at the 1984 Summer Olympics. He also had an undefeated professional record and had won the IBF light welterweight title in 1988 from Buddy McGirt.
This fight was the third title defense for both boxers and a unification fight of the WBC and IBF title.
The fight took place only one month after Mike Tyson’s upset loss to James “Buster” Douglas.

🥊THE REMATCH‼️ Andy Ruiz Jr vs Anthony Joshua II | 🥇WBA/WBO/IBF Heavyweight Titles | FULL FIGHT
Andy Ruiz Jr. vs Anthony Joshua II, billed as Clash On The Dunes, was a heavyweight professional boxing rematch between the Mexican-American champion Andy Ruiz Jr. and British former champion Anthony Joshua, for the unified WBA (Super), IBF, WBO and IBO heavyweight world titles. The event took place on December 7, 2019, at the Diriyah Arena, Diriyah, Saudi Arabia.
After losing by seventh-round technical knockout to Andy Ruiz Jr. on June 1, 2019, at Madison Square Garden in New York City in one of the biggest upsets in the history of boxing, Joshua stated in a post-fight interview that he and his team certainly expected to exercise the rematch clause with Ruiz.
Four days after the fight took place, Joshua’s promoter and group managing director of Matchroom Sport Eddie Hearn announced on social media platforms that Joshua’s management team triggered the contractual rematch clause with Ruiz.
Saudi Arabian authorities reportedly paid £30 million ($41.1 million) to host the event in Saudi Arabia.
