I’m excited to get back into the cage,” Said Ray. “Two years is a long time after fighting 14 alkalommal három év. I’ve learned a lot about the sport in that time. Our team’s success has motivated me a lot. We have amazing fighters and instructors at our gym. The opportunity to fight in Portland, where I delivered mail for eight years, was too hard to pass up.

Zenon Herrera last competed in the NEF cage in August 2016. He has split his professional career between boxing and MMA. Herrera is a military veteran, having served four years in the United States Army and five years in the United States Marine Corps. Tovább November 3-án, Herrera will look to score his first win since his amateur days on the Florida MMA circuit.

It’s been a long time since last in the NEF cage for both myself and John Raio,” mondja Herrera. “This will be a great way for both of us to make a return, and I’m very much looking forward to going in with such a well classed person. John and I are both the type who will come forward and never back down. I really think this is going to be a great match that will be enjoyed by all involved.

A NAGY ÉSZAK-CAROLINA TALENT SZÖVEGNÖKHÖZ KÖNYT NAPOS NÖVÉNYEK DURHAMBAN

Jegyek a következőre kaphatók Október 19 kártya, ami kemény, helyi mérkőzések

DURHAM, ÉSZAK-KAROLINA – Augusztus 25, 2017Tomboló Babe és a Hírességek Csarnoka Russell Peltz összegyűjtötték, mi lehet a legjobb kártya, amelyet Észak-Carolina látott ebben az évben. Mikor “Tomboló Babe” Michelle Rosado először lépett be Észak-Karolinába, szándékosan és szándékosan tette. Észak-Karolinában van, túlsokáig, úgy tekintették, mint olyan helyet, ahol a harcosok eljuthatnak a nyilvántartásukba. Rosado elkötelezte magát amellett, hogy megváltoztassa, és az újonnan előkerült Szervezõ azt tervezi, hogy teljesíti ezt a kötelezettségvállalást, amikor bemutatja Csütörtök Night Fights tovább Október 19 a Durham Armory.

A fő esemény egy helyi mérkőzés, vastag, rossz vérrel. Marko “A Bikaváros zsarnok” Bailey (5-0, 3KO) Charlotte ellen néz Stevie “A válasz” Massey (4-1, 4KO). egy hat körben zajló mérkőzésen, amely már azóta készül, mivel mindkét harcos amatőr sorban volt. A zárt ajtók miatti szemetes beszélgetés, amelyben mindkét harcos részt vett az elmúlt években, átterjedt a közösségi médiára, és most az észak-karolinai állambajnokságon végződikOktóber 19. “Túl sokat fut,” - mondta az ellenfelének Bailey. “Ez személyes. Meg akarom verni az embereket— belőle. Régóta vártam, hogy megkapjam a kezem ezt a fickót, és hat forduló alatt elbontom őt. Megadom, hogy rosszul nézzen ki.” Ez Bailey első hat fordulója, és a következő szavakkal lép be a táborba: Vitathatatlanul szuper könnyű bajnok, Terence Crawford az agyában. “A múlt hétvégén egy kis időt töltöttem a Buddal. Azt mondta nekem, még akkor is, ha küzd, és az idők nehezednek, harcolni kell rajta, nem számít. Nincs mentség.” Bailey három órát otthonról edz, edzője, Don Turner mellett. “Ez nem könnyű munka, képzési órák minden nap egy gazdaságban, ahol csak munka van, pihenés és kukorica.” - mondta Rosado a Bailey táborából. Bailey nem elriasztott. “Harcolni kell a bajokon. Ez teszi a bajnokokat. Ez az, ami megmutatja, miből készül,” - mondta a fiatal harcos.

Massey azt tervezi, hogy hagyja ököllel beszélgetni. “Nem vagyok vissza senkinek,” - mondta Massey a mérkőzésről. “Harcolnunk kellett volna az amatőrök között, de nem történt meg, és most itt az ideje.” A 24 éves toll súlya felmegy a Bailey ellen, és Bailey lemegy. A közepén találkoznak 132 lbs. Massey elárulja első veszteségét, kemény egyhangú döntés Reggie Barnett Jr. Sok harcos könnyebben érintkezne veszteség után, de Massey nem erre épül. “A veszteség visszatért az éhséghez. Jobb, ha szíjba áll, mert Október 19, Jövök.”

Ez a fajta egyeztetés, amelyet Rosado és Peltz szeret a legjobban. “Hallgat, Michelle egy kis út- kőfejtő vájár, agresszív,” - mondta Peltz. “Részt vesz a helyi match-up elméletben. A boksznak nincs semmi baja, hogy a jó harcok nem fognak segíteni. Michelle megérti ezt. Versenyképes harcot kell folytatnia. Ha helyi szinten készítheted őket TV nélkül, hosszú távon csak a boksz segít. Megpróbálunk változtatni a kultúrán az NC-ben. Bármikor, amikor két helyi gyereket harcol egymással a 21. században, ez egy nagy ügy.”

A co-main event, két legyőzhetetlen, A helyi Durham-harcosok hat fordulóban lépnek fel a Junior Középkategóriában. Joseph Jackson (8-0, 6KO) terek beszámítják Monreco “Reek király” Goldston (5-0-1, 3KO), mindkét harcos elhelyezi az O-t’ a sorban. Ez lesz a Goldston első mérkőzése több mint egy év alatt, miután májusban többször sorsolt a virginiai Robert Sweeney-vel 2016. A mérkőzés Jackson idén negyedik lesz. Múlt szombaton jön egy kiütéses győzelem Darryol Humphrey felett, Augusztus 19.

Szintén a kártyán, Carlos Olmeda (2-0, 2KO) Nagyon kemény ellenféllel szembesül a New York-i csapkodó Vinnie Denierio (1-2, 1KO). Nem ez az első alkalom, hogy az 5'10-et” Southpaw Denierio harcolt a Bikavárosban. Marko Bailey-vel áprilisban találkozott vele, mielőtt júniusban Philadelphiában újraértékelték volna. Mindkét ütés állandó ovációkat szerzett a tömegtől. Olmeda nem olyan típusú, hogy lemenjen, annak ellenére, hogy a két harcos közül kicsi, azt tervezi, hogy mindent megtesz a New Yorker számára, amellyel képes lesz.

A kártya fennmaradó részét Észak-Karolina legígéretesebb tehetségeivel rakják össze. Nem győzött Junior középsúly Donnie Marshall (5-0, 4KO) megjelenik a kártyán, a szuper középkategóriás kilátás mellett Blake “A KO király” Mansfield (4-1-1, 2KO) , és Raleigh nehézsúlyú Nate Williams (1-0, 1KO). Szintén a kártyán, Hasim Rahman |, Jr. debütál Észak-Karolinában. A nehézsúlyú apja nyomában követi, és két nyert, mindketten kiesés útján, áprilisi debütálása óta.

A harci kártya teljesíti Rosado ígéretét Észak-Karolina rajongói számára. “Ezek a harcosok nem zavarják egymást,” - mondta Rosado. “Örömteli együtt dolgozni azokkal a srácokkal, akik harcolni akarnak.” Rosado ezt megjegyezte, a harcosok felé’ hitel, a fent említett mérkőzések könnyű eladást jelentettek. “Jönni akartak és harcolni a rajongókért. Nincsenek külföldi sajtóutak, nincs nézegetés, nincs cirkuszi fellépés, nincs kínos mérkőzés. Csak egy igazi bokszoló, aki igazi harcokkal küzd, Durham stílusban.”

Itt van, amit a harcosok kellett mondani Csütörtök from the David Copperfield Theater at MGM Grand:
GERVONTA DAVIS
Szombat night is going to be a great performance from me. I’m ready to take over this sport after Floyd passes me the torch.
I had a great camp. I hope Fonseca’s camp was great because we have to put on a great performance for the fans. I want the fans to say that there is a new star in this sport.
I feel like my career is very similar to Floyd’s so far. We started out at the same weight and we each got our first belt at 130-pounds. I just want to live up to what he’s accomplished and accomplish even more. I believe that I have the skills and the ability to be the big star in this sport.
I just try to stay grounded because I know what I want to do in this sport. Because I have the belief in myself it’s easy for me to stay focused. I also think I have the best team in this sport and they help me every step of the way.
Fonseca is a very good fighter. He’s very fast and sharp. He’s got a long reach but I know that he hasn’t fought anyone that has the skills that I have. Én nem néz rá. I’m training really hard for this.
I was in the position he’s in now. I know how him and his team are feeling. I know what I have to do to be victorious. I’m going to come out sharp and hopefully pick up even more fans than I have now.
I want to unify this division and then move up in weight and keep adding titles. If I can’t get a unification bout next, then I’m going to move up for new challenges.
This is a very important night for me. It’s important to me that I put on a great show. I want everyone to say that ‘there’s a new star in town.'
FRANCISCO FONSECA
The huge audience won’t intimidate me. I’ve dreamt my whole life to be in an event of this magnitude.
I take this fight as a big responsibility. My dream has always been to fight in an event of this magnitude. My goal is to be a champion and come out of this with a belt on my waist.
The preparation has been long. I’ve had five months of training in intense conditions. I feel strong mentally. Tovább Augusztus 26, I aim to reach my goal as a champion for Costa Rica.
This is an opportunity to start writing my legacy. Gervonta is tough because he is a champion, but I have the hunger and motivation to win and be a champion.
All camps are different but in this one I had fivemonths to prepare. We were in Puerto Rico for the training and everything was smooth. I feel strong heading into this fight.
We both have the pressure to win. I come to do my job. I’ve been keeping focused on the fight and the combat. He hasn’t experience an opponent with as much hunger as I have. It’s going to be a great fight and very competitive. He is the champion and I want to be the champion.
NATHAN CLEVERLY
I’m enjoying the experience of being in Las Vegas. I love fighting in this city. I’m looking forward to the fight and I’m going to embrace this moment.
“Végül, all that matters is the fight. I’m coming to win and that’s my sole focus. The fight is the pinnacle moment and I’m saving all my energy for that.
I’ve persisted throughout my career. Any setbacks I just got right back to training and stayed consistent. If you keep working hard then the opportunities will arrive. I stayed patient and allowed the opportunities to come.
I have no regrets in my career. I like taking risks in this sport. I fought Kovalev when I was 26, I fought Bellew at cruiserweight, I fought Fonfara in Chicago, Braehmer in Germany and now I’m fighting Badou Jack, who’s on the rise. I love the big fights.
It’s a high-risk high reward fight. The winner of this is in line for Andre Ward and the super WBA title. This is a solid world title fight between two guys who want to be at the top of the division.
JACK Badou
I’ve got great stamina in there. I’m never going to get tired. I train hard for this. Every punch in a fight is important. We have a great game plan and we’re going to execute it.
“Azt akarom, hogy a legjobb ellen. I have the skills to beat anyone. If they say I can’t beat someone, that’s the fight I want the most.
I’m not overlooking Nathan Cleverly. I’m just getting comfortable at this weight and I’m going to be focused on performing on fight night. If all goes well though, I could see myself finishing my career at cruiserweight someday.
I’ve been fighting big, strong guys since Cleverly was a teenager. Well see who is the stronger man when we’re in the ring szombat.
I feel better at this weight than at super middleweight. Már alig várom, hogy ezt a harcot. There happens to be a lot of UK fighters at my weight and I’ve enjoyed experiencing a little bit of the UK fans.
ANDREW Tabiti
I began boxing because I was being bullied so my stepfather put me in the ring and I would get beat up every day. I learned a lot from those experiences. I just kept coming back every day and I never gave up. Now I’m here.
This sport is about proving people wrong. People said Floyd wouldn’t beat a lot of guys in his career, I’m not saying I’m Floyd, but this is a sport where you have to prove yourself. Meglátjuk szombat.
Being in the gym with Floyd gives me the drive to keep working. Seeing how hard he works, it shows me what I want to be.
I have to use my legs and keep boxing. I need to use my speed in there. It’s different watching me on TV than actually being in there with me. I could see it going the distance but if I catch him, Megyek, hogy végezzen vele.
One of my favorite fighters growing up was James Toney. That’s where I picked up some of my style. He used to hit combos off the shoulder roll and that’s what I like to do.
This is a great undercard with Gervonta Davis and Badou Jack. I’m here trying to make a name for myself in the cruiserweight division and become a face of this weight class.
Steve Cunningham
I actually commentated on one of Tabiti’s fights about a year and a half ago. He’s a good up-and-coming fighter. He emulates Floyd and he’s trained by Floyd’s dad so that’s expected. I think I’m going to overwhelm him mentally and physically.
I don’t think Tabiti is at the top level yet. He has flaws and strengths but at the end of the day, he has a fight Szombat. He’s in there with a two-time world champion so he’s going to have to fight Szombat.
Every fight on this level is a huge fight. I’ve been in the ring with some monsters. Some of the best cruiserweights and heavyweights in the world. I don’t think that I look 41 but you’ll have to let me know szombat.
I think this is what Tabiti has been waiting for. I will be nice and calm and be right in his face and right in his chest.
When these guys hang around Floyd they want to be like him and they’ve been around these events, so I don’t think the atmosphere will affect him. But once we’re in the ring, it’s just me and him.
THOMAS DULORME
I’m so happy to have this big fight szombat éjszaka. My team has done a great job to get me to this position.
Having an opponent change is part of boxing. I was already training very hard for Shawn Porter so when the opponent changed, nothing changed in camp. I continued to work hard and szombat night I will show why I worked so hard.
I want all of my Puerto Ricans to tune-in szombat night because I’m going out there to steal the show and put on the fight of the night.
I’m going to bring an exciting fight for the fans and prove that I am a world championship level fighter. I fight for the fans and I can’t wait to get in there and perform.
YORDENIS UGAS
“Nagyszerűen érzem magam. Készen állok Szombat and I’m excited to put on a great fight. I feel very blessed to be here and be a part of such a historic event.
To my Cuban fans, I’m so proud to be representing my country here in Las Vegas and Szombat night it’s going to be a great fight.
It is an honor to step in to face Dulorme. Ő egy hatalmas harcos. I’m here and I feel a blessed and happy to have been called. I won’t let my fans down.
JUAN HERALDEZ
My weight is great right now. I feel comfortable and hydrated. Everything has gone perfectly. I’m looking to make a mark in the junior welterweight division. Terrence Crawford is the dream fight and I just want to keep working up to that level.
My career has progressed well and I think this fight is going to make me a contender. From here I just want to keep improving and getting in there with tougher opponents.
I’ve been training out in Las Vegas since 1998 but the last two years in the Mayweather Boxing Club has been amazing. Everyone in the gym is so motivated right now. We all push each other by just working harder and trying to match each other.
I didn’t watch much of Borrego in the beginning of camp, but I saw his record so I knew I had to train as hard as I ever have. But when I watched him I thought he was kind of limited. I think I have advantages and I think I’m the better all-around fighter.
JOSE MIGUEL BORREGO
I feel excited and motivated. Training has been tough but we’re sure we’re ready for Szombat.
The motivation for this kind of card has been tremendous. I can’t wait to put on a show for all the Mexican fans who tune-in.
I’m so proud to be the only Mexican on this card. We’re going to give it our all. We’re ready for this fight. I’m the new breed of Mexican fighters and I’m going to show it to the world.
KEVIN NEWMAN
I’ve had a great camp. Én vagyok csúcsformában. I was really pushed in sparring working with Chris Eubank Jr. and some other guys. I’ve been up running at 5 a.m. four to five miles every day. Készen állok,.
I’ve improved a lot mentally. I’ve focused in more. Listening is key for me. I feel like I’m at a stage where I’m listening to my corner and we’re bonding and meshing together great.
I just have to continue to stay focus and work hard. If I’m dedicated and disciplined to my craft, then everything else will fall into place.
“Boldog vagyok, hogy itt lehetek. I’m in a very blessed position. I can’t wait to go out there and put on a dominant performance. I plan on starting out strong and taking advantage of everything that I can.
I just take my time and relax in the ring. I’m going to make my opponent fight my pace. He usually starts pretty quick but then he starts to fade. I’m going to dictate the pace from round and not let him get comfortable.

Henry Clark (3-3) a tervek szerint szembe Carl Langston (6-9) A harc súlya 135 kiló.

Henry Clark is a member of the Choi Institute based in Portland. Since his debut in the fall of 2014, Clark has been known for producing exciting moments in the NEF cage. In a memorable bout with Langston’s Young’s MMA teammate, and current NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Champion, Fred Lear (6-2), Clark held onto a triangle choke while Lear viciously slammed him not once but twice. He will look to break a two-fight losing streak with what Clark predicts to be a dominant performance against Langston in front of his hometown fans.

Portland is my town,” declared Clark. “Tovább November 3-án, I’m showing up to prove that. I’ve got a great opponent in Carl who always shows up to fight, but I’m planning on keeping it a dominant, one-sided affair. Truly my only desire is that of violence, my only intention is victory. Both will be achieved.

Like Clark, Carl Langston calls Portland home. With a background in Taekwondo, Langston has thrilled NEF fans on numerous occasions with his prolific striking abilities. He knocked out Alex Johnson (2-3) with a series of violent kicks to the body in Langston’s last NEF appearance. Langston says this will be his last amateur fight before turning professional.

This will be my last amateur fight and there isn’t any better way to go out fighting for NEF’s first card in my hometown in Portland,” stated Langston. “I’m super pumped to be part of this card! Ami az én ellenfele, he’s a good guy and I have nothing bad to say about him, but come fight time, I’m going to walk through him. He won’t make it out of the second round. He has nothing to offer me.

NEF következő vegyes harcművészeti esemény, “NEF 31: The Old Port,” will see the company debut in Portland, Maine at the brand new, state-of-the-art venue Aura. The event is scheduled to take place on Péntek, November 3, 2017. Jegyek már kaphatók a www.auramaine.com.

LAS VEGAS (Augusztus 23, 2017) – Fight week for the biggest event in combat sports history continued Wednesday as Floyd Mayweather és Conor McGregor squared off at the final press conference ahead of the SHOWTIME PPV matchup this Szombat, Augusztus. 26 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The fighters spoke to hundreds of media from all around the world as the anticipation continues to grow for this once-in-a-lifetime event that combines the worlds of boxing and MMA for one spectacular fight.
Here is what the participants had to say Wednesday from KA Theatre at MGM Grand:
FLOYD Mayweather
I’ve been here so many times. I know what it takes for a fight of this magnitude. I’m thankful to everyone who has covered this event. Everyone can talk about different storylines, but it comes down to two fighters. Just me and the guy I’m competing against.
I had a tremendous training camp. We had a lot of different guys who gave me different looks. To compete in a combat sport, you have to be a fighter at the end of the day. To be in this sport for 21 év, I had to take it extremely seriously, just like I did for this bout.
Everyone knows I can fight. I can give it and I can take. But to get to 49-0, it’s obvious that I’m not receiving it, I’m giving it a lot more often.
Conor McGregor is a hell of a fighter. He’s a tough competitor. It’s going to be blood sweat and tears Szombat éjszaka. That’s what we want to give people all around the world. Now it comes down to the two of us going out there and displaying our skills.
The best fighting the best. He’s the best at what he does, I’m the best at what I do. We can both do a lot of talking, but it comes down to the skills. We’re going to compete and give you what you want to see.
“Után 21 years I’ve been hit with everything and I’m still right here. One thing you must know about combat sports, if you give it, you must be able to take it. Last time I checked, no one is walking me down. It’s all about my IQ and patience in the ring.
We’re both real fighters. We’re two huge names in combat sports. He’s made a mark the last few years and I’ve made a mark for 21 év. Now it’s time to go do what we do best and fight.
I go out there and do what I do. I’ve been here before and fought many different fighters with different styles. There have been plenty of guys who talked a lot of trash, but when it’s all said and done, I came out victorious.
We prepare for this every day at the Mayweather Boxing Club. We’re built for this stage. We have a lot of young fighters and guys with more experience going toe-to-toe every day. We’re always talking trash to each other and staying in each other’s ear.
This is great for the city of Las Vegas. It’s all about giving back and I’m giving back to my home of Las Vegas. This city has welcomed me with open arms from day one. We’re doing great numbers. It’s the biggest fight in history. It’s not just a fight, it’s an event. It’s all about breaking my own records.
I’ve said it’s not going the distance and you can mark my words. I know he’s going to come out and switch and go back and forth with stances. It’s my job to execute my game plan and adjust if I have to.
CONOR MCGREGOR
We’re here now. It’s a couple days out. We’ve had a lot of crazy events but this is nice and business-like. I’m very happy with how camp has gone. Everything has been absolutely amazing. I have to shout out my team and everyone who’s been involved with camp. We’re prepared for 12 rounds of nonstop pace. I will go forward and put the pressure on and break this old man.
He made a big error agreeing to the eight ounce gloves. I don’t see him lasting two rounds. I think I could end him in one round if I want. He messed up. I’m very happy with these gloves. I don’t care where your hands are, I’m going to break through whatever is in front of me.
I really appreciate the support from everyone back home and all over the world, it’s been very humbling and motivating. That’s why I’ve put in such hard work for this fight. I’m going to go out and perform. I’m going to out box this man at his own game. That’s how much of a different level I’m on.
When it’s all said and done I’m going to feel a little bit sad. You should have kept your mouth shut and left me over where I was. This man is not on my level. He’s not a quarter of the man I am. Everyone is going to eat their words szombat.
He’s a beaten man. He will not be able to take the ferociousness that I come with. Én nagyon magabiztos. I have more skills in many areas and as a true martial artist, I can adapt to any situation.
I’ve never missed weight in my life and it won’t be happening this time. I’ve had my nutritionist practically living with me throughout camp. We are ready and feel great at the weight right now. The weight has been taken seriously and Floyd can keep wishing that I’ll miss weight.
I’ve made it through shin bones that bounced off my cheekbone. That’s the game I come from. They can say what they want, but I’ve come through a lot tougher than what any of these fighters he’s faced have gone through.
Leonard Ellerbe, Vezérigazgatója Mayweather Promotions
Mayweather vs McGregor has captured the imagination of sports fans across the world. It’s a historic event demanded by the fans and put on for the fans.
The fighters will put their talents on display in a fight that people did not think was possible. After it’s done, people will talk about this fight for years to come.

FIRST NEF WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP WILL BE AWARDED ON NOVEMBER 3RD

Azonnali kiadásra: Portland, Maine (Augusztus 23, 2017) - New England Harcol (NEF) will make its long-awaited debut in Portland on Péntek, November 3, 2017 at Aura with “NEF 31: The Old Port.” Korábban ma, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur mixed-martial-arts title bout to the card. Alex Walker (4-1) veszi át Hilarie Rose (4-3) to crown the first-ever NEF MMA Amateur Strawweight Women’s Champion. The fight is scheduled to be contested at the strawweight limit of 115 font.

Alex Walker is a three-fight veteran of the NEF cage. Since losing her debut in the spring of 2015, Walker has been on a tear throughout the New England MMA circuit. She has won her last four in a row with three of those victories coming by way of submission. At “NEF 29,this past June in Lewiston, Maine, Walker forced Sarah Ziehm (1-1) to tap to an arm bar. She trains with Team Kaze of Lancaster, New Hampshire. According to Walker, she is excited to have an opponent to strike with in the form of Rose.

This girl is a more than a game opponentshe’s also a good striker,” exclaimed Walker. “She won’t back down. This will be a hell of a stand up fight! We’re going to put on a good bout. I’m looking forward to having an opponent that will trade punches and not back down!”

If it is a striking match Walker is looking for, she will indeed find it in Hilarie Rose. Rózsa, who trains at USMMA in Bellingham, Massachusetts, burst onto the local fight scene in late 2014 with an ultra-brutal switch kick knockout of Tiffany McCoy (2-1). She has won her last two fights, and Rose is determined to end Walker’s streak to become the first-ever NEF women’s champion.

I’m looking forward to fighting Alex for NEF’s first woman’s strawweight championship,” said Rose. “Alex has won her last few fights and looks like she’s got quick arm locks. Ezzel azt mondta, her winning streak ends on November 3-án, and I’m bringing the NEF belt home with me. I’m excited to show Maine and the NEF fans my skills.

LAS VEGAS (Augusztus 22, 2017) – A korábbi világbajnok Juan Carlos Payano (19-1, 9 KO) scored an impressive decision victory over Alexis Santiago (24-5-1, 8 KO) A fő eseténPremier Boxing Champions Toe-to-toe KEDDEN tovább FS1 és Ökölvívás Bajnokoktovább FOX Sports, Kedd night from Sam’s Town Live in Las Vegas and presented by Mayweather Promotions.
Payano set the pace early, closing the distance with Santiago and delivering consistent flurries of punches. Santiago was unable to keep Payano from charging forward early and seemed focused on landing a big counter.
The fight was defined by its rough nature and constant fighting on the inside. This led to a cut above Payano’s left eye after round three, but his corner was able to manage it and the cut was never a problem.
I felt like I was winning every single round,” said Payano. “There were small moments on the inside that I gave away but I think I did the better work each round.
Santiago had moments in the fight and landed big right hands late in the fourth and fifth rounds that got Payano’s attention, but the former champion was able to throw back with high volume and regain control of the fight.
The strategy was to wear him down and then really try to walk him down and take him out,” said Payano. “Santiago was a little too tough for his own good so I kept some distance at times and controlled the fight.
I felt the long layoff when I got in there,” Said Santiago. “I was a little tight and I loaded up too much instead of using my speed.
Even when Santiago was able to corner Payano, the slippery fighter was able to fight his way off the ropes and turn the tide back in his favor. After the end of 10 rounds of super bantamweight action all three judgessaw the fight in Payano’s favor by scores of 100-90 és 99-91 kétszer.
I want my titles back,” said Payano. “I don’t care who is holding which titles at 118 és 122 font. I’ll fight anyone and show I’m still a champion.
I thought the fight was a little closer,” Said Santiago. “He did more work than me but I thought I had good moments. I wanted to box him a little more but I couldn’t find my range so I just tried to close down the gaps. We just have to go back to the drawing board and stay more active. I want to get a tune-up fight then get right back to fighting top guys.
The co-main event saw once-beaten Ladarius Miller (14-1, 4 KO) score a unanimous decision victory over 2012 Egyesült Államokon kívül. Olimposzi Jamel Hering (16-2, 9 KO) in their 10-round lightweight bout.
The southpaws began the fight carefully, with Miller looking to establish his jab while Herring showed great movement early and tried to catch Miller in the pocket. The exchanges picked up in round two, although both men were still primarily throwing one punch at a time.
I know I out-jabbed him,” - mondta Miller. “When we jabbed each other, I thought my jab was stronger than his. I gave him two different styles. There were times where I walked him down and times where I boxed him.
Miller began to pick up the aggressiveness in round three, following up his jab with a straight left hand over the top that snapped Herring’s head. Herring continued to focus on his movement and mixed-in good body work several times to finish off exchanges.
In round five Herring began to plant himself inside and looked to counter Miller, but was unable to do enough clean work to get the attention of the judges as Miller continued to throw back with left hands and movement that occasionally frustrated Herring.
“Azt hittem, hogy egy szoros küzdelemben,” Said Hering. “I thought when I came forward and pressed the fight he started retreating and moving.
Both men squared-off in the center of the ring for the final three rounds, as each looked to deliver a shot that would seal the fight in their favor. The flurry of action led to judgesdisagreements on all three of the final action-packed rounds.
In the end it was Miller’s consistent work throughout the fight that got him the nod from all three judges by scores of 98-92 és 97-93 kétszer.
I thought 97-93 was the right score,” - mondta Miller. “I took it easy in round nine and felt him out in the first two rounds. But the rest of the fight I felt like I dominated. It’s a process. I’m just climbing the ladder right now. I want to get another test and fight more strong fighters. I want to be on the biggest stages. I’m ready for the step up.
I thought I landed some heavy shots in there and was more aggressive,” Said Hering. “Obviously the judges saw it differently. I’ll get back with my team and see what’s next, but I did think I won the fight. I thought I won the last two rounds and pulled it out.
