Heavyweight champ Deontay Wilder says most boxers' worst fear is his fantasy ... telling the world he desperately wants to KILL A MAN IN THE RING before his career is over. Wilder sat down with Charlamagne Tha God & Angela Yee (DJ Envy probably already walked out of the interview) on "The Breakfast Club," when he made the incredibly frightening statement. "I want a body on my record. I want one. I really do." Ummm, yeah. If any of you think he's joking, Wilder actually goes on to give reasons why he feels this way, saying he's not in his right mind when he's in the ring under his "Bronze Bomber" persona. "That's the Bronze Bomber. He want one. When I'm the Bronze Bomber I don't care. I want that on my record." In case you were wondering, it DOES happen, and most fighters say it haunts them their entire life. But, Wilder says only part of his split personality would feel remorse, and even then it's part of the game. "Deontay would feel bad, but we signed up for that." Yikes. You sure you want that, Anthony Joshua?

Fight recap of the week MARCH 9, 2018 FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHT ON SHOBOX Prograis annihilates Indongo for WBC title Report/Photos: Boxing Bob Newman at ringside In a clash for the vacant interim WBC super lightweight title, undefeated Regis Prograis (21-0, 18 KOs) impressively destroyed former unified WBA/IBF world champion Julius Indongo (22-2, 11 KOs) in two rounds on Friday night at the Deadwood Mountain Grand in Deadwood, South Dakota. Prograis scored a knockdown late in round one and finished Indongo with three more knockdowns in round two. Time was 2:54. Prograis immediately turned his attention to a possible matchup with the winner of next week’s Imam-Ramirez matchup. “I want the real title now, and I don’t think those two dudes will fight me after tonight,” said Prograis. “Indongo only had one loss to Terrence Crawford, the pound for pound best, and I stopped him a round before Crawford did. I don’t see anybody trying to fight me right now.” MARCH 10, 2018 CO-MAINEVENT ON SHOWTIME Relikh beats Barthelemy for WBA 140lb belt In a rematch of their controversial fight last year, Kiryl Relikh (22-2, 19 KOs) got revenge against previously unbeaten two-division world champion Rances Barthelemy (26-1, 13 KOs), taking a twelve round unanimous decision to claim the vacant WBA super lightweight title on Saturday night at the Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio, Texas. Relikh took the fight to Barthelemy and outworked him by a wide margin. Barthelemy was deducted a point for a low blow in round seven. Scores were 117-110, 118-109, 118-109. MARCH 10, 2018 MAIN EVENT SHOWTIME Garcia dethrones IBF 140lb champ Lipinets Unbeaten jr welterweight Mikey Garcia (38-0, 30 KOs) is now a four-division world champion after dethroning IBF junior welterweight beltholder Sergey Lipinets (13-1, 10 KOs) by twelve round unanimous decision on Saturday night at the Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio, Texas. Garcia dropped Lipinets with a left hook to the head in round seven and went on to win 116-111, 117-110, 117-110. MARCH 10 2018 ESPN CO-MAIN EVENT Baranchyk batters Petrov in IBF eliminator By Boxing Bob Newman at ringside In an eliminator for the IBF’s #2 position at 140 pounds, #4 rated Ivan Baranchyk (17-0, 11 KOs) walked through late sub and former world title challenger and #10 rated Petr Petrov (38-6-2, 18 KOs) on Friday night at the Deadwood Mountain Grand in Deadwood, South Dakota. Baranchyk dropped Petrov immediately in round one and had him on the deck again (not officially) in round three. Another knockdown in round six. The one-sided bout was finally stopped by referee Marc Nelson in round eight. Time was 1:12. MARCH 10, 2018 MAIN EVENT ON ESPN Valdez defeats Quigg to keep WBO feather belt By Miguel Maravilla at ringside WBO featherweight champion Oscar Valdez (24-0, 19 KOs) won a brutal twelve round unanimous decision over Scott Quigg (34-2-2, 25 KOs) on Saturday night at the StubHub Center in Carson, California. Quigg failed to make weight, but Valdez still needed to beat him to keep his WBO title. From the start, Valdez was landing the big punches connectin Quigg with a huge right in the opening round. Quigg came right at Valdez in round two as they stood in the pocket trading. Attacking on the inside in the third Valdez connected with the left hook to the body a couple of times. In the fifth Valdez tagged Quigg cutting his left eye as Quigg responded with a huge right. It was a wild sixth round as Quigg and Valdez traded, the champion began bleeding heavily from his mouth. The seventh round saw Quigg’s cut trickling blood as Valdez kept his distance boxing. Quigg and Valdez both were bleeding in the eighth. The war continued in the ninth as Valdez landed good combinations inside, Quigg responded with pressure. In the championship rounds, it was all-out war as the fighters traded to the final bell. Scores were 117-111, 117-111, 118-110. Valdez suffered a broken jaw...

Canelo Alvarez has admitted he tested positive for a performance enhancing drug -- but he's blaming the dirty test on contaminated cow meat. The boxer was tested in advance of his upcoming May 5 rematch against Gennady Golovkin -- and says results show he had trace levels of Clenbuterol. FYI, Clenbuterol is a banned substance often used by athletes to cut body fat while retaining muscle mass. It's banned by every major doping agency. But Canelo says he's NOT a cheater -- just an eater. He believes the traces of Clenbuterol are "consistent with meat contamination that has impacted dozens of athletes in Mexico over the last years." Canelo says he will immediately move his training camp from Mexico to the United States and will submit to any number and variety of additional tests that the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association deems necessary ahead of the fight. "I am an athlete who respects the sport and this surprises me and bothers me because it had never happened to me," Canelo says. "I will submit to all the tests that require me to clarify this embarrassing situation and I trust that at the end the truth will prevail." Canelo's team notes he has tested clean dozens of times over the course of his previous 12 fights.

According to the boxing experts at Sportsbookreview.com, who rate the sportsbooks and help bettors shop for the best line, many of the books have the champion Wilder as a favorite at -330 (wager $330 to win $100). When it comes to betting on boxing I always express that we're looking for value. The value, in this case, is defined as weighing the investment vs. the risk. I've been around the sport long enough to know what I am looking at and why I make the picks I make. With that being said, here are my four best bets for Saturday night simply from a value standpoint and why these picks make sense. All of the betting value points toward Luis Ortiz. A combination of experience, power of his own, a southpaw stance and the fact that Wilder might be overlooking him provides enough confidence that the sharp money points toward Ortiz.
