QUINCY, كتلة. (يوليو 31, 2017) – في.يوم السبت ليل, أغسطس 5, three-time world title challenge Aleksandra Lopes (17-4-2, 1 KO) is taking on former world super lightweight champion ليزا جارلاند (15-7-1, 8 كوس) في الحدث المشترك من ثماني جولات في “Fight Night at the Bay” بطاقة, largely to try and better position herself for one final world title shot.

“Fight Night at the Bay” بطاقة, التي قدمتها الترقيات الجرانيت والذقن, will be held at Marina Bay Sportplex in Quincy, ماساتشوستس.

Former New England. بطل وزن الوسط ديريك سيلفيرا (12-1, 6 كوس), fighting out of Salem (MA), وسيلتقي السابق المنافس ببطولة العالم مايكل “بدم بارد” كلارك (44-16-1, 18 كوس) في الحدث الرئيسي من ثماني جولات.

Poland-native Lopes (17-4-2, 1 KO), fighting out of Marshfield (MA), is a 37-year-old lawyer who practices in Brockton (MA). She lost a pair of vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) Super Welterweight title fights to a Pole in Poland, Swede in Sweden. Last September, Lopes lost a 10-round decision to Ewa Piatkowska (9-1) في بولندا; she dropped a 10-round majority decision in Sweden to Mikaela Lauren (22-3) في 2014. في 2013, Lopes lost a 10-round unanimous decision in Rhode Island to توري نلسون (6-0-3) لجمعية الملاكمة الدولية الشاغرة (IBA) بطولة العالم في وزن الوسط.

The highlight of Lopes’ 8 ½-year professional career, حتى الآن, is her 10-round complete shutout (100-90 X 3) decision victory, يوليو 30, 2016, إلى Szilvia Szagbados (13-6) في بليموث (MA) for the vacant WBC Silver female welterweight crown. Lopes has also defeated world champions Yvonne Reis و كالي ريس.

Lopes vs. Garland has world title fight implications for the winner. “I’d like to position myself for one more world title shot,” Lopes said. “I’m still learning every fight and I haven’t reached my plateau yet. Garland has good experience, she’s been around as long as I’ve been fighting. I can’t afford to lose this fight, but I’ve always had that in the back of my mind. I need an experienced opponent like her to push me, to learn something new, and I always like to fight at home.

“It’s tough to fight here (نحن.) for a world title. You almost always need to travel overseas. We’re limited here because of the required purse (for the defending champion to come to the states) and sanctioning fees for promoters in America. Women’s boxing is more popular in Europe, Mexico and parts of South America. But I have had a very good run and great relationships with New England promoters, who’ve put me on their cards.

“I think women’s boxing maybe, just maybe, will start changing if the trend continues as fighters such as Clarissa Shields و كاتي تايلور, women boxers who’ve made names in the Olympics, keep turning pro. أماندا سيرانو has gotten some good exposure fighting on television, أيضا. We’ve had to travel for world title fights but, نأمل, things are changing for the better.”

Other top N.E. boxers will also be in action أغسطس. 5, including Iraq War veteran كريس تريتي (23-4, 19 كوس), of Quincy, الذين الساحات قبالة ضد Nick Lavin (4-5, 4 كوس), of Shelton (CT) for the vacant New England cruiserweight title in an eight-round bout. Traietti is also the co-promoter of “Fight Night at the Bay”.
