Since the calendar year turned 2020, the boxing action has heated up. Many outstanding action fights have already happened, and plenty more are anticipated during January. One fight that everyone should circle on their calendar is the January 18th match between Michael Seals and Eleider Alvarez at the Turning Stone Resort and Casino in Verona, New York. It is one of those fights that is simmering with potential action. To think that the winner will be the fighter whose power holds true in this fight would not be an erroneous assumption.

For Michael Seals, his heavy hands are his calling card, and they were well documented long before he boxed, “Ever since I was a kid, we used to horseplay in the yards, and play in the neighborhood. People would never want to play with me,” Michael told Ringside Report. Before Michael utilized this power in the boxing ring, he was a very good athlete and played college football. “I first started boxing when I was twenty-three, and I thought I was doing it at first to just stay in shape. But my competitive nature just took over, and I fell in love with boxing.”
