Antonio Amaya (boxer)

Hi guys! The page I made for boxer Antonio Amaya has been sent to Draft:Antonio Amaya (boxer). The person who sent it there refuses repeatedly to bring it back, despite the fact Amaya was a three time world title challenger on the WBA and WBC.

I sent it to Draft review and it's taking days. I was wondering if you could take a look at it. Thanks! Jeaneete Knockout babe Martin (dime?) 06:15, 13 February, 2025 (UTC)

:You should focus on his fights that were covered by press/books rather than describing his career based on your analysis of his Boxrec profile. Morbidthoughts (talk) 00:58, 3 May 2025 (UTC)

:What got you interested in this boxer-??- I looked him up... BoxRec I use and it WILL be there. But... BoxRec getting more and more limited far as time one can stay on it; also what the will "show easily."

:I know that Antonio Amaya fought Hiroshi Kobayashi twice and that AT LEAST ONE OF those was for World JL WBA title. Was both matches? The one I can pick up immediately was 15RD "split decision" loss. &: boxer passed at age 79 January this year (2025).

: Hiroshima Kobayashi's record far as time-lines holding WBA JL (*Super FeatherWT.) is "confused" on their chart on bio. Have you picked that up? Their is a back story about that-??-

: Amaya career: 1963-'78. 77 pro matches and -it be the truth(?)- three X World Title challenger. Guy... came within a wisker by the judges tabulation on the one I can see in on today! 184.180.43.98 (talk) 17:05, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

:2Nd: I don't pick up your meaning when you say that his merrits aught be picked-up off of seperated media reviews instead of the BoxRec database(???). Are you trying to have Wikipedia run his profile?

: The boxer has "great merit" BUT. I rather doubt it the would carry him because of the limits Wikipedia uses. Too many boxers much more significant than him that would not be listed. However - that said - isn't a conclusion because I am unsure really the depths they will or won't go to but.. i CAN rate your guy a.t. against other names on the database here (now) or unincluded. 184.180.43.98 (talk) 17:26, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

Lists of champions as an image

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Boxing/Archive_8#File:All_Boxing_Lineal_Champs.png These types of images] are being added again (ex. List of current world boxing champions#The Ring). They violate several policies and MOS. Some of these problems can be fixed but I think it is better to present the info in these images in tables and we shouldn't use them.-- Jahalive (talk) 20:33, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

:They've got to go. User has been told repeatedly about this. Revert on sight. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 13:49, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

New boxing league

With the announcement by Turki and Dana White of their new boxing league, this could be the start of a new era in boxing (possibly a five-belt era?). Obviously, very little details have been released so far and we’ll have to wait and see as they release more info in the coming months. GOAT Bones231012 (talk) 18:15, 5 March 2025 (UTC)

:Yes, we will need to wait and see what they do. The first card will be in September 2025. Mahussain06 (talk) 08:14, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

::Neither of you two must be very much experienced in the field. Ten years following boxing? 184.180.43.98 (talk) 17:28, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

Assessment Needed

Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Sharmba Mitchell and Roy Jones Jr. vs. Clinton Woods articles need class assessment from someone in wiki-boxing project. I gave importance assessment for WikiProject Oregon, where fights took place.--Orygun (talk) 21:11, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
