Jake Paul showed up at 216.6carrying itself as weight is optional. Anthony Joshua beaten 243.4the number of a man who has lived his entire career within heavyweight damage. That gap is not theory. That’s the result.
Paul can market himself as a cruiser if it helps him sleep. Joshua is a heavyweight who has spent years bullying bodies and cracking guards. If Jake changes size in a slogan, Joshua will change it in power.
Baumgardner made weight – now she has to remind people that she can hurt someone
Alycia Baumgardner beat 129.2. Leila Beaudoin beaten 130.0.
This is clean business. But weight never resolved Alycia’s real question—does she still throw with authority, or has she turned into a rhythm dealer? Beaudoin is going to test output, not ceremony. Twelve threes will reveal who has lungs and who has delusions.
Anderson Silva and Tyron Woodley at cruiserweight just feels like nostalgia disguised as relevance
Silva at 191.4 and Woodley at 194.0 is less about a division sheet and more about two retired men borrowing weight classes to cash checks. They have thrown hands before. They didn’t change the sport then. They won’t now.
Harvey weighed in 129.6Cervantes 130.0 – real prospects, real danger. Someone’s “0” goes. Someone’s hype is waning. It’s worth more than nostalgia attacks and influencer bravado.
The preliminary list is functional – champions stay busy, prospects are staged
Cherneka Johnson made 117.0Amanda Galle 117.4.
Caroline Dubois hit 134.2Panatta appropriate 134.2.
Yokasta Valle clocked 104.8Yadira Bustillos 104.6.
These are belts that are defended because sanctioning bodies need movement. Don’t pretend it’s something else. The only question worth asking is who shows ambition and who treats the night like a paid jog.
Avious Griffin came in at 146.4 with sixteen knockouts — real doll. Justin Cardona at 145.6 is the kind of opponent that tells you if that knockout ratio is substance or padding.
Keno Marley debuts at 198.6. Diarra Davis rolls in small 188.4 – a cruiser vs an inflated light heavy with nothing to lose.
Netflix starts around 8 p.m. ET for the main card, 4:45 p.m. ET for the forerunners. Miami. Kaseya Center.
