PARK CITY, KANSAS (十月 23, 2017) – 2016 奧運銅牌得主 尼科·埃爾南德斯 will be fighting for his first professional title on 星期六, 十二月 2, when he takes on Hungarian invader約瑟夫 “小紅” Ajtai in the eight-round main event for the vacant International Boxing Association (IBA) Flyweight Championship, 領銜 “KO拳擊之夜: 金 & 榮耀” 在哈特曼競技場帕克城, 堪薩斯州.
“KO拳擊之夜: 金 & 榮耀” 是的KO晚上拳擊LLC的介紹。, 與哈特曼競技場協會, 和部分贊助 龍捲風市哈雷戴維森 地鐵PCS, Mort’s Cigar Bar 和 Jimmy Egg.
該行動將進行現場錄音為今後CBS體育網播出.
The 21-year-old Hernandez (3-0, 2 科斯), 戰鬥出來的威奇托, 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 23RD, Hernandez was forced to fight late replacement Kendrick “Uprising” Latchman who outweighed the celebrated American Olympian by more than 10 英鎊. Hernandez won a six-round unanimous decision by scores of 60-54 和 59-55 兩次.
Despite being younger than Hernandez by almost a year to the day, Ajtai (19-9, 12 科斯) has already had 28 親打架, including a full 10-round distance loss by decision last year to two-time Olympic gold medalist Shiming Zou, 前世界拳擊組織 (WBO) 輕量級世界冠軍.
“By far, Nico is fighting the toughest opponent of his pro career,” 埃爾南德斯’ 促進者 John Andersen (“KO Night Boxing LLC) 說. “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 英鎊.
“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 額外. “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 霍亞,喬治·福爾曼, 羅伯托·杜蘭 和 阿圖羅·加蒂, as well as stars such as 羅伊·瓊斯, 小,伯納德·霍普金斯大學, 巴蒂爾莫斯利, 詹姆斯·托尼, Mikkel Kessler, Eric Morales, 科拉萊斯迭戈, 何塞·路易斯·卡斯蒂略, 格倫 - 約翰遜 和 安東尼奧·塔弗.
Other fights on the “金 & 榮耀” card will soon be announced. 所有戰鬥和戰士都受到變革.
這是一個老少咸宜的顯示. 門開處 5:00 P.M. CT with the opening bout scheduled at 6:00 P.M. CT.
