سوف تكون مسجلة في واقعي لبثها في المستقبل على شبكة سي بي اس الرياضية.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 كوس), القتال من ويتشيتا, will be fighting in a scheduled eight-round bout for the first time. His three pro fights to date were all scheduled for six rounds and each was held in Kansas, the last two in his second home, Hartman Arena.
In his last fight this past September 23الثالثة, Hernandez was forced to fight late replacement كندريك “Uprising” Latchman who outweighed the celebrated American Olympian by more than 10 جنيه. Hernandez won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54 و 59-55 مرتين.
Despite being younger than Hernandez by almost a year to the day, Ajtai (19-9, 12 كوس) has already had 28 معارك للمحترفين, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year to two-time Olympic gold medalist شى مينغ زو, منظمة الملاكمة العالمية السابقة (المنظمة العالمية للملاكمة) بطل العالم لوزن الذبابة.
“By far, Nico is fighting the toughest opponent of his pro career,” هرنانديز’ متعهد John Andersen (“KO Night Boxing LLC) قال. “Ajtai has much more experience as a pro than Nico, plus he went the distance against a two-time Olympic gold medalist, Zou. Ajtai is a busy fighter with a good knockout ratio (63%). This fight is going to tell us a lot about Nico, especially his power at 112 جنيه.
“Nico fighting for a title in only his fourth pro fight proves that all our hard efforts of KO Night Boxing and Team Nico has paid off quickly and we’re grateful that the IBA has given him this great opportunity. I didn’t realize the high quality of champions the IBA has had in the past and we’re proud that Nico can someday join this group. In the flyweight division, Nico may enter world title fight shot discussions earlier than I had originally thought, which was in his third year as a pro. An impressive performance against Ajtai could position him for a world title fight next year with less than 10 fights under his belt.”
“We’re excited to have an American Olympian fighting for our first Americas title,” IBA PresidentJ.C. Courreges وأضاف. “Nico Hernandez is an Olympic bronze medalist and we’re hopeful that he will develop into an IBA world champion in the not too distant future. His amateur pedigree speaks for itself and we’re very happy to have this young man fighting for the IBA Americas title.”
IBA world champions during the past quarter-century include Hall-of-Famers أوسكار دي لا هويا,جورج فورمان, روبرتو دوران و ارتورو جاتي, as well as stars such as روي جونز, الابن,برنارد هوبكنز, شين موسلي, جيمس توني, ميكيل كيسلر, إريك موراليس, دييغو كوراليس, خوسيه لويس كاستيلو, غلين جونسون و انطونيو تارفير.
