In an interview with Sky Sports, Anderson spoke on the praise that he has received from the Gypsy King.
“We look at Jared, without any question, as a future heavyweight champion.” said Fury. Tyson has been supportive as his sparring partner gets more experience, and has made it known that he anticipates a lot of success in the near future. Rumors have circulated about Anderson getting the better of Fury during some of that sparring, which has given the young contender confidence that he can already compete at the highest level. He has served as the champ’s main sparring partner for his last two fights against former WBC Champion Deontay Wilder (42-1-1, 41 KOs). Perhaps what has been most beneficial to Anderson in his young career has been the sparring that he has done with WBC Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs).
ROCHARD COMMEY PRO
With the win, Anderson received his eleventh straight knockout victory to begin his career.Īnderson has been fast tracked up the ranks as a pro due to his ability to learn on the job. He made it up at the count of ten, but struggled to stand straight up and the referee rightfully ended the fight. A little over a minute into the round, a straight right hand buckled the legs of Teslenko and sent him crashing down to the canvas. Unlike most of his heavyweight peers, he uses his jab to set the offensive rhythm and attacks both the head and body of his opponent with it.Īnderson came out in round two in an orthodox stance, and kept that piston-like jab firing at the head and midsection of Teslenko. Anderson opened up as a southpaw, showing yet another dimension to his already advanced skill set for a heavyweight. He faced off against Ukrainian Oleksandr Teslenko (17-2, 13 KOs) in a scheduled eight round attraction. He was able to secure another opportunity just two months later, serving as the chief support to Vasyl Lomachenko vs Richard Commey on Heisman Night at Madison Square Garden.

ROCHARD COMMEY PROFESSIONAL
With the victory, “Big Baby” had won his first ten professional contests all by knockout. He used a viscous body attack that wore down Tereshkin and set up huge head shots that caused the referee to intervene and stop the fight.
ROCHARD COMMEY FULL
Anderson’s skill set is why many people have tabbed him as potentially the next great American heavyweight, and that was on full display on fight night. He handed Vladimir Tereshkin (22-1-1, 12 KOs) his first professional defeat by getting the second round TKO victory.

He is set to be the co-feature on Saturday’s card, with former world champions Jose Pedraza and Richard Commey squaring off in the main event.Īnderson got the opportunity to fight in a Pay-Per-View event last October as he was on the undercard for the trilogy between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder. Anderson was set to come back on the Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte undercard this April, but he had to withdraw from the fight due to injury. He picked up the two best victories in his young career at the end of the year, and had a lot of momentum as 2022 began.
He fought four times in 2021, with the most recent one being on Heisman Night in December. After a career long layoff, Jared “Big Baby” Anderson (11-0, 11 KOs) returns to the ring this weekend at the Hard Rock Hotel in Tulsa, Oklahoma on ESPN.
