Today I've finally received my long overdue Silver Creator Award!

I am thrilled and hopefully I will be able to hit the Gold Creator Award meaning a million subs next.

I would like to THANK EVERYONE again for their continuous support over the years, as I've created this channel 14 years ago and would like to keep it for as long as I live because I love what I do so much I cannot imagine doing other things for a living.

Not to mention my passion for the sport is something I cannot replace.

Hopefully I will continue to make such videos for good and I'd hope to have your support for as long as a I do.

On this day 38 years ago, the legendary Thomas "Hitman" Hearns took on James "The Heat" Kinchen for the inaugural WBO Super Middleweight Championship. Hearns was seeking to become the 1st fighter in history to win world titles in 5 different weight divisions. The night nearly turned into a disaster when Hearns was shellshocked by a pulverizing right hand that sent him to the canvas in the 4th frame.

He beat the count but appeared to be finished. However, a much-needed reprieve came when referee Mills Lane called timeout to dock a point from Kinchen for hitting on the break. This provided Hearns with critical recovery time that altered the momentum of the fight.

It also proved to be the pivotal moment and the ultimate deciding factor; the mathematical strength of Kinchen’s 10–8 round was erased by the deduction. Hearns then displayed his warrior heart and veteran savviness, shifting gears into a slick outboxer, utilizing his long jab and refined footwork as well as high-level boxing IQ to avoid needless exchanges with the naturally bigger, rugged Louisiana-born slugger.

After 12 rounds, Hearns earned a hard-fought MD12. Kinchen remained dangerous until the final bell, and the closeness of the fight remains a point of debate among purists today. The 3 judges turned in scores of 115–112, 114–112, and 114–114.

With this victory, Hearns secured his place in the record books as the first man to capture world titles in five divisions.

What do you guys think of the outcome of this fight?

"The Monster" Naoya Inoue ((井上 尚弥) has recently become my ALL TIME favorite Japanese fighter in recent years as his achievements are astounding and almost hard to believe. Listing down his achievements since his pro debut till present day felt almost fake as though it was completely made up.

Well, that's really how GREAT he is.

Since his debut on October 2nd 2012, he has been impressive for 14 years straight and not only without any losses he also had very few bad moments and 2 of those were in bouts against Luis Nery and Ramon Cardenas where he was decked but what's amazing about it is the fact that even as a veteran he LEARNED from those few mistakes. He proved that he could go back to boxing, don't get too gung ho with his power and win by points as he did in his last 3 bouts.

The first time he showed any vulnerability was against the legendary Nonito Donaire where he suffered a number of injuries despite winning by clear UD12. It was at that point and still the hardest fight of his career. Again, he not only was more wary in the rematch but he decimated Donaire in less than 6 minutes!

So far his 28 consecutive world title fight wins is a record that's only 2nd to "El César del Boxeo" Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. with his gold standard of 31.

Only 5 out of his 33 total fights are non world title bouts.

He has never lost in over 14 years of his career and he has had a win that's close, debatable or in some ways doubtful as well.

He has been World Champion in 4 different weight classes;

1. WBC World Champion (108)
2. WBO World Champion (115)
3. Undisputed World Champion (118)
4. Undisputed World Champion (122)

Inoue is definitely an ATG at this point and I don't think it can be really disputed because his achievements speak volumes. And I do not loosely give this status to any fighter.

What's next for him boxing heads? Who do you like to see him fight?

There are talks of matching him and Bam Rodriguez. Let me know in the comments!

Hey boxing heads! Guess what? I AM FINALLY BACK! 🥊🥊🥊

After 2.5 years of hiatus, it is hard to believe that I am returning and words cannot truly convey just how happy I am to be able to do this again. For me, I've always considered this to be the one career I was meant to have. It was particularly difficult to be away as I had previously been doing this for over a decade and regardless of how hard it was I never wanted to consider a different career or pursue a path in content creation that might have been a lot more profitable.

Even though I am aware that if I resorted to clickbait materials with clickbait thumbnails like editing a picture of Mike Tyson and Ivan Drago, maybe even adding lots of visual and audio effects I would likely get more views and more subs as flashy contents tend to be more attractive at least to most viewers. But I couldn't do that because it is simply not my style and I've always tried my best to keep things as real as possible.

Personally, there are quite a lot of misinformation being spread around in a lot of these contents that appear to be convincing. I don't want to single out any creator or talk as though their contents are inferior to mine but I like to keep things real, and avoid misinformation as much as possible. Sure, I would also love to have more views, more subs and ultimately more revenue but then again I simply couldn't do those stuff and frankly I've even been advised to do that years ago as it would definitely result in more engagement that I've ever gotten before.

I am so glad to return, and for those of you who continue to watch my videos I just want to say that you guys make me want to keep doing this even though I can honestly say I am not making nearly as much as I used to. And I am saying this truthfully with no sugarcoating and this is not me playing with words. Its God's honest truth.

There are times, I believe I might even be getting obsolete and phased out in light of so many new boxing creators today. My "old school" style of video editing and keeping it as simple as I could, might not be the most appealing to the average young audience today and I admit that maybe I am unwilling to overhaul my style or even start a new channel doing exactly that just to cater to a broader audience.

So from the bottom of my heart, I am truly GRATEFUL for those of you who still enjoy my content during my absence and have waited for my comeback. You guys are so amazing and keeps me motivated even though it wasn't easy at all being away.

I need your continuous support to subscribe, comment and share my videos. Perhaps, to turn on post notifications as well. Of course, you are in no ways obligated to do so but trust me, it'd really make me happy to see that I am still relevant in your eyes and it makes me realize I am not one of those outdated creators.

Remember guys, always *ALWAYS* keep your PUNCHES coming!

Hey boxing heads,

It is regrettable for me to announce that I have officially uploaded the final video of my channel as I have been unable to resolve the ongoing issues with YouTube due to their "updated T&C" as it meant the end for me and there is no way to turn this around anymore. I was a little too optimistic in believing that I could overcome this issue as I did several times before but seems to me this time, it really is the end for me.

I am truly sorry that I cannot continue doing what I love for you guys, despite the fact that I wish I could do this and only this as a career but I am now left with no choice but to let it go. Believe me when I say, I love what I do so much that despite the fact my earnings are often unpredictable and had been declining for almost 2 years it did not stop me in any way as my love for the sport far transcends my desire to earn more from being a content creator. Perhaps, it is not something that's easy to believe but I have had other options thrown my way and if I was more of a pragmatic individual I would probably go for it rather than choosing to continue doing what I've always done.

Most of the time, I am aware that certain fight highlights will not likely result in as many views but due to my love for the sport I just feel like there are least known fights and fighters that I have to highlight for boxing fans whether it will generate lots of views or not. Frankly, I am a boxing fan first and content creator second, that's why I have never resorted to using excessive theatrics, clickbait titles and thumbnails even though I notice that it does result in greater views and subscribers count. Call me crazy, but I prefer to keep it as real as possible even if it meant that I will lose out to creators that's willing to do these things.

I was also told that it was pointless for me to do all the research just to write a thorough description as most viewers will only focus on the video itself. Way I see it, I loved doing that and also I believe that it is up to anyone to choose whether they will read the description or not but I will put it up regardless. If that is not proof of how much I love the sport, I really don't know what is.

Good news is, all of my videos will remain available in my channel so I hope you guys continue watching them because it means a lot to me just knowing that my hard work is still and will be appreciated by boxing fans. While it's a shame that YouTube has chosen to do this to me (and many creators from what I heard) but still, it will never diminish my love for the sport and my gratitude for all the support shown for over a decade.

Jeff Jackson Boxing lasted 11 years, 127 days.

I can only imagine life beyond what I have done for so long as I have had the privilege of doing what I loved for about 1/3 of my life.

THANK YOU. I mean it from the bottom of my heart. The love and support shown will never be forgotten by me no matter where I will go from here on. Once again, I am truly sorry to have to stop doing this for you guys and I say this with a very heavy heart.

So guys, remember to continue showing love for this great sport and KEEP PUNCHING! 🥊

Hey guys, as you guys know I have not been uploading for over a month now. This is due to some issues with YouTube which I am still trying to sort out. I certainly want to continue creating and uploading contents as I have been doing for well over a decade now but unfortunately, I might be in danger of having to discontinue if these issues with YouTube cannot be resolved.

For now, I hope you guys can continue watching the contents I have uploaded and I will try to end this problem as soon as I can so that I can continue doing what I've always loved doing as a lifelong boxing fan.

I just want to say that I truly appreciate all of the support that has been shown to me in over 10 years. I can't thank you guys enough for that and it would sadden me a great deal if I really have no choice but to quit doing what I love doing more than anything else.

I will let you guys know in due time and I do hope I have good news to share.

Once again, I am grateful for all your support and remember to keep punching at all times!

After rewatching Crawford's spectacular victory over Spence multiple times, I have to say I get more and more impressed with each viewing. I believe like many, I did not expect a dominant performance by either man.

With Crawford achieving his most significant career win, what should be his next move?

Should he move up in weight or face his IBF mandatory Jaron Ennis?

Most seems to favor Inoue but is there a possibility of an upset by Fulton?

Let me know what you think the outcome will be.

Jeff Jackson

Julian Jackson aka “The Hawk” (born September 12th, 1960) fought professionally from February 1981 to May 1998. He is universally recognized as one of the hardest punchers P4P in boxing history. He scored many devastating highlight-reel worthy knockouts with his INSANE POWER (often with single blows) throughout his 17 year career.

Jackson had a short amateur stint where he compiled a record of 15-2. He represented his birthplace of United States Virgin Islands (an unincorporated United States Territory) at the 1979 Pan American Games in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

On February 2nd 1981, he made his pro debut in Puerto Rico and his 1st appearance in the United States in September of the same year where he defeated Dario De Asa via KO3.

Between March 1982 & January 1984, he racked up a streak of 10(9)-0 before scoring a KO2 win over former Lineal Light Middleweight Champion Eddie Gazo. Later on, he scored another impressive streak of 12(12)-0 in a span of 2 years before earning his 1st world title shot against “The Bodysnatcher” Mike McCallum for the WBA Super Welterweight Title on August 23rd 1986.

Jackson managed to rock McCallum a number of times in round 1 but the more experienced McCallum managed to stop him in round 2 after taking The Hawk’s early thunder.

In a 2010 interview with Ringside Report, McCallum stated that he definitely felt Julian Jackson’s INSANE POWER and that he was the hardest puncher he ever faced and that includes EVERY FIGHTER he has ever worked with;

“Oh Man! Julian Jackson was THE hardest puncher I ever fought in the game. That includes all the fighters that I sparred with, worked with or fought with. None of them punched harder than Julian Jackson…”

After being handed his 1st career loss, he rebounded with 2 low key wins before gaining his 2nd world title shot on November 21st 1987 against In Chul Baek for the vacant WBA Super Welterweight Title where he soared a KO3 victory over the gutsy South Korean to become world champion for the 1st time.

13 months later, Baek went on to bag the WBA Super Middleweight Championship via KO10 over former Marvin Hagler opponent Fulgencio Obelmejias.

Between July 1988 & 1989, he went 3(3)-0 in title defenses before moving up to 160 pounds in 1990 where he picked up 2 victories to garner the opportunity to fight for the vacant WBC Middleweight Championship against the crafty Nottinghamian, Herol “Bomber” Graham on November 24th of the same year.

From the get go, Graham outclsssed Jackson with his slick southpaw, stick & move style to the point that referee Joe Cortez notified him in his corner before the start of round 4 that he had 1 round left as his eyes were swelling shut from the punishment dished out by one of Britain’s most avoided fighters.

However, with a little more than a 1.5 minute before an impending stoppage, Jackson scored 1 of the most memorable come-from-behind finishes of all time with a blinding counter right hand which flattened Graham for about 20 minutes to become world champion in 2 weight classes.

Between September & December 1991, he went 4(3)-0 in successful title defenses.

On May 8th 1993, Jackson was dethroned by Gerald McClellan aka “The G-Man” in a slugfest named Fight of the Year by Ring Magazine. He bombed McClellan with his best shots in the 1st couple of rounds, but the younger man who was also a destructive puncher, rebounded to stop the veteran powerhouse in round 5.

In a rematch 1 year later, he was stopped in 83 seconds as he entered the bout with a rib injury and was beginning to show signs of decline.

However, he had not lost his unparalleled punching power.

On March 17th 1995, he became the 2x WBC Middleweight Champion with a TKO2 triumph over former EBU Middleweight Champion Agostino Cardamone.

In August of the same year, he was dethroned by Quincy Taylor via TKO6 in the 1st defense of his WBC title.

Between September 1996 and May 1998, Jackson went 4(2)-2 and retired with a final record of 55(49)-6.

The Hawk hold commendable victories over Agostino Cardamone, In Chul Baek, Thomas Tate, Dennis Milton, Eddie Gazo, Buster Drayton, Terry Norris & Herol Graham.

He was the former WBA Super Welterweight Champion & the former 2x WBC Middleweight Champion.

In retirement, Julian Jackson joined his local ministry and established the I Believe I Can Fly boxing gym in his birthplace of St. Thomas, Virgin Islands where he still lives. He has also been largely involved with the V.I. Amateur Boxing Federation which serves as a hub for youngsters to learn boxing and keeping their lives together.
