That is a sentiment that trainer Rodriguez echoes.
Justin is different then Jarrett. He uses hand-speed, Jarrett uses his size.

He will be a force to be reckoned with. He is fighting at 154 kilograma sada, but we will slowly be taking him to 147.
Justin Hurd considers himself a real student of the game and has followed the advice of both his big brother and trainer.
What I have learned by watching Jarrett go through his run is to listen to our trainers. I learned that my trainers tell us what to do for good reason. Imajući to na umu, I just am ready to put on a show and am grateful to be added to the card on 14. travnja.”
Hurd joins Hasim Rahman, Jr., Ruben Villa and Michael Dutchover on the non-televised undercard.

WICHITA, Kanzas (Ožujak 31, 2017) – Prošle subote u Kansas Star Areni u blizini Mulvane, 2016 Olimpijski brončani Nico Hernandez zasadi sjeme u nadi da raste Wichita u borbi grad, kao svjetski prvaci Terence Crawford a Deontay Wilder već ostvaren u odgovarajućim rodnim mjestima, Omaha (NE) i Birmingham (AL).
Više od 3,100 ventilatori kupljene ulaznice Hernandez’ Uspješno profesionalni debi, zaustavljanje Pat Gutierrez U četvrtom kolu. Da bi se to pohađanje lik u pravu perspektivu, Wichita ima populaciju od manje od 400,000 i na taj kolut-bjesomučan stanju, prikladno nazvan “KO Noć Boks: Povijest počinje” ode glava-to-head s popularnim Kansas Jayhawks kvintet svira na nacionalnoj televiziji u Elite Eight NCAA koledž košarci, kao i Wichita Force igrati kod kuće u mali nogomet.
21-godišnji Hernandez je praktički sportska franšiza u Wichita, drugi samo na Državnom sveučilištu u Wichita (WSU) muška košarkaška reprezentacija. Grad ispalo na snazi ​​na paradi u čast Hernandeza po povratku kući od njega OI i WSU nagrađen faksu stipendije open-završila četiri godine.
“KO Noć Boks: Povijest počinje” još Prezentacija ove subote noć
Bisa prezentacija prošle subote je “KO Noć Boks: Povijest počinje,” sadrži pro debi 2016 Olimpijski brončani Nico Hernandez, će zraka ove subote (Travanj 1), s početkom u 8:30 poslije podne. I, na CBS Sports Network.
“Show je bio veliki uspjeh i Nico, kao pro borca, proizveo cjelovit opus nego što smo očekivali,” Hernandez’ organizator John Andersen (KO Noć Boks) rekla. “Bio sam vrlo impresioniran. Njegov amaterski pozadini pretvoriti u još bolju pro stil. To stvarno pokazao svoje potencijale i to je jedan od glavnih razloga što smo ga potpisali. Mi smo stvarno vjerovali u Nico. On je jedini borac smo potpisali, odmah; Nico je naš stabilan! Mi vidjeti stvari iz drugog kuta nego veliki put promotora. shvatili smo da je on rodni grad heroj, tako da mu je naslov kod kuće mu pro debi na nacionalnoj televiziji (CBS Sports Network). Mi proizvodimo naše emisije na televiziji i uživamo priča priče kao što je Nico-a. Mi smo željeli doći natrag do Wichita s Nico borbe u lipnju.”
Cjeloživotno Kansas Sean Wheelock, ne-plaćeni član Athletic komisije Kansas koja nadgleda boks, osim pozivanja prošle subote bori se kao član KO Night Boxing najavljuje tima na CBS Sports Network, ima jedinstven pogled na značaju prošle subote navečer je u smislu lokalne povijesti boksa.
“Bio je ogroman za Kansas boks,” Wheelock objasnio, “najveći show u ovoj državi, počevši od šezdesetih Tommy Morrison Doba (rani-to-sredine 1990-ih). Morrison je bio usvojen sin, iako. Nico je rođen ovdje, a on je duboko ulaganja u Wichita zajednici. Crtanje 3000-plus za njegovu pro debi, u ne-boks tržištu, bio je fenomenalan i on ima potencijal da učini ono što Crawford je učinio u Omahi i Wilder u Birminghamu. Boks ima jake korijene u Kansasu i preko Srednjeg zapada, ali MMA je preuzeo i zadnje, većina boks u Kansasu je na hibridnim emisijama sa MMA i kickboxing.
“Fanovi su glasno pjevanje, „Nico’ i „316’ (Wichita je pozivni broj) prije, tijekom i nakon borbe. Nikad nisam čuo navijači pjevajući za grad kao što su učinili, „Wichita”, za pojedinog sportaša. I oni također su skandirali „USA”. Kao rodni Kansas, Ponosan sam da je ova država je postala etnički i kulturno raznolike s više Latinoamerikanaca koji žive u Wichita. Nico je angažirana u latinoameričku zajednicu, a on je fantastičan dijete, previše. Zbog svoje osobnosti i stil borbe, on može izvući iz lokalnih Wichita, kroz sve Kansas, i nacionalno među Latinoamerikanaca i Amerikanaca diljem zemlje zbog njegove ostvarenje u Olimpijskim igrama.”
Hernandez također bori u jednom od najvrućih podjele u boksu — 115-pound mlađi bantamweight / super flyweight — će iskoristiti ime borci poput Naoya Inoue, rimski Gonzalez, Carlos Blokovi, Juan Francisco Estrada a najnoviji dodatak Srisaket Sor Rungvisai. upadljivo odsutni, međutim, su vrhu 20 rangirani američki borci u ovoj klasi mase, osim 36-godišnjak Brian Viloria, četiri vremenu, dva podjela (mlađi flyweight i flyweight) svjetski prvak. Prilika je upravo tamo Hernandez i brzo uspostavlja se kao nadmoćan američki boksač u ovoj klasi mase.
“Nema razloga za Nico boriti izvan Wichita za par godina, kako on razvija,” Andersen je navedeno. “Osjećam da on može osvojiti regionalni naslov iduće godine. Naš cilj je da ga imaju u borbi položaju naslov svjetskog prvaka u roku od tri godine. Naš cilj je da ga 13 za 15 bori se, a zatim promovirati super borbu u Wichita. On je započeo u šest rundi boriti. Mislim da će imati samo par više, a zatim premjestiti do osam cijele borbe.
“Nico ne troši puno udaraca, tako da je broj planiranih rundi neće biti problem za njega. Još jedan borac bi se uguraju u dva kruga, bore kod kuće ispred zapjeva kao da ga podržava, ali Nico je pokazao ogromnu ravnoteža, smiriti i stavljajući svoje udarce zajedno vrlo dobro. Nije potjerati Gutierrez, je učinkovito odsječeni prstena, a njegov snažan napad tijelo bilo nešto što nije učinio kao amater. Željeli smo vidjeti kako je reagirao na otpor i on je prošao taj test s ocjenom.”
Andersen je istaknuo da je njegova tvrtka je promovirao nekoliko uspješnih koncerata, ističući veliku razliku je prošli vikend show sadržanu svjetske klase borac u Hernandez. “Izrada OI je velika stvar za Nico,” Andersen je dodao, “da li je on medaljom ili ne. Nico je za nas ono Manny Pacquiao je na vrh rang, „Canelo’ Alvarez za Zlatni dječak. Mi smo sretni da početi s borac kao Nico. Borba u Wichita je rizik za svakoga, ali to je već plaćati dividende.
“Mi znamo tko smo i što smo kao promotivni tvrtke. Nico je naš prioritet, naš jedini borac odmah, i sada imamo veliku priliku za izgradnju izvan uspjeha prošlog vikenda. Dajemo Nico svu pažnju zaslužuje i da će iskoristiti ovu situaciju. I mi također otkrili da ima neke druge talentirane bokserice na ovom tržištu. mrvica Hayden je prekrasan posao izrade vrlo konkurentne borbe. To je njegova povijest, on nikada nije blowouts. Mrvica je jedan od najboljih poznavatelja ljudi koje poznajem u boksu. On je savršen posrednik za usmjeravanje Nico karijeru, uz Nico oca (Glava trener) Klin dizač Hernandez, tko smo blisko surađivati ​​s na mnogo načina, i iz prstena.”

I’m sure Trejo has a lot of tricks up his sleeve with all his experience,” said Damien Vasquez. “These are the type of fights I look forward too, where a young fighter like myself can learn a few things. I’m going to set the pace early, and go from there. By no means am I taking him lightly.
Vasquez’s father Oscar, has been in his sons corner from day one. He’s thrilled, knowing his son has progressed since his first pro fight.
I’m very proud of my son because I know how hard he works, and I can see the improvement after every fight,” rekla Oscar Vasquez. “My brother and I always knew he had the talent to become a good professional boxer. I’m confident he’ll come out victorious against a tough veteran like Trejo.

Cherry of Wauchula, Florida has had a smooth camp while training in the Sunshine State and is ready for the 46th start of his professional start.
“Sve je dobro, and we will be prepared for everything on 4. travnja,” said the 34-year-old Cherry.
“Na 4. travnja, whatever Douglas brings, we will be prepared for. This is not the first time, that I’ve been in this position. He is the guy who has to prove he can perform. I have been there before, so the pressure is on him.
Cherry has been a top contender at both the 130 a 135 funta podjele, and he even challenged for a world title at 140 funti. He believes there are many reasons that he has remained a viable contender who has only lost once in the last nine years and 13 borbe.
I am motivated and I believe in myself,” rekao Cherry. “Those are the reasons that I am still here at the top of the 130 a 135 divizije. My family gives me drive every day. 4. travnja will be another great fight. This is my job and I have to go out and do it well.
Cherry believes a win should gain him another crack at a world title.
A win definitely puts me ahead. It will open doors for better fights and better paydays. A title shot is what I want. But also a bigger money fight that will take care of my family.
Douglas has been training at home in Delaware, has been working hard for this fight, which could be a breakthrough fight on the heels of his narrow defeat to former world champion Javier Fortuna last November.
“Sve je super. This has been a long camp. I have been getting great work,” rekao 26- year-old Douglas.
I am the better fighter. I have known about him for a long time. I watched him a lot when he fought u petak Noćni borbe.”
That fight with Fortuna was a major step up, and Douglas had a lot of positive moments, as he dropped the former champion in the 1st round, only to lose by three points on two cards and one point on a third card.
The Fortuna fight let me know and let the people know that Omar Douglas is a world class fighter. Even in a loss, people did not expect me to do well. I thought that I showed a lot that night and I will carry that confidence into this fight on 4. travnja.”
Douglas believes that a win over Cherry is his path to a world title.
I think that it is time. I just happen to be crossing paths with Cherry. This fight makes sense for me. I will let people know that I am player at 130 funti, and a win will earn me a title shot. I have shown that I will fight anyone. Look at the records of my previous opponents. Fortuna was 30-1 and one fight removed from being a world champion. Alexei Collado was 19-1; Frank De Alba was 17-1. So wins over those guys plus Cherry should have me right there, but I am focusing on Edner Cherry. He is a great veteran, ali u utorak night I will be victorious.

Busy May & June for M-1 Global

 

ST. PETERSBURG, Rusija (Ožujak 31, 2017) – M-1 Global predsjednik Vadim Finkelchtein (na slici gore) has announced five M-1 Challenge events to be held this May and June.
Below is a Q & A with the veteran MMA promoter:
Can you tell us about plans for upcoming M-1 Global events?
VF: “In the next 2-3 months we will promote an extremely full schedule of events. Through the middle of Lipnjaje, we will promote fiveI’m not afraid to use these wordsgrandiose tournaments. 22. travnja there’s an event being held in Nazran, which was arranged with the support of the local government, and dedicated to the 25th anniversary of Ingushetia. Na Svibanj 19th, in collaboration with Rostec and Rosoboronexport corporations, we will hold a truly spectacular event in Sochi. Our traditional tournament in Orenburg is set for May 26th, which regularly takes place at the highest level with a crowded venue. Na Lipnjae 1st, we will hold another event in St. Petersburg as part of the International Aconomic Forum program. And already on Lipnjaje 15 – A major tournament will be held June 15th in Harbin, Kina, during the program of the Russian-Chinese Axpo. Both in St. Petersburg and China, we are included in the official program, so we will be participating in truly large-scale events.
Fans are interested in fighters whose performances will decorate these tournaments. Can you reveal some of the competing fighters?
VF: “We will really surprise the audience at these events. A lot of negotiations are ongoing, including those with fighters who are the TopP-20 ranked fighters in the world. There will also be fights involving new fighters. Naravno, we intend to make fights that fans have been waiting for a long time. One is the is the Idrisov vs. Buchinger rematch and, naravno, probably the most anticipated fight in Russian MMA today, Shlemenko vs Ameev.
The fight between Alexander Shlemenko and Ramazan Ameev had already been postponed twice. What prevents this fight from being canceled for the third time?
VF: “The desire of the two fighters can play the major role here. Averything has been done on our side. Aleksandar Shlemenko is ready for this fight. We’re waiting word back from Ramazan Ameev. This fight is interesting for fans and we will try to make it happen. People are starting to understand more and more about MMA and we are making fights that our fans want to happen. Not only does this apply to Shlemenko a Ameev. but for other popular fighters as well, including undefeated M-1 welterweight champion Alexey Kunchenko, top lightweight Artiom Damkovsky, Damir Ismagulov, Sergej Romanov i mnogi drugi. We try to sign contracts with only fighters who want to be in spectacular fights. Look at the last events in Moscow. Were any of the 11 fights boring? Ne! Aven in undercard matches we have fighters who deliver exciting fights and often early finishes. This is the hallmark of our promotion. We do not hold uninteresting events or boring fights.
Danas, many promotions sign fighters who were fired from UFC. Why are you not doing this?
VF: “Certainly in that way. If fighters are interesting to the Russian public and well known, we will sign him. Inače, I believe that it is wrong to sign, da se tako izrazim, cast-off fighters. This will not add credibility and strengthen our organization in the MMA world. We do that a different way. We build stars that UFC chases. It may be more difficult but M-1 is more respected by the West for doing it this way. Pogledaj, those fighters who leave M-1 for the UFC leave because they’ve been developed through serious schooling, as we do not feed themtomato cans” protivnici. We do not make easy fights for anybody. Marcin Tybura, Rashid Magomedov, Mairbek Taisumov, Alexey Oleinik, Islam Makhachev, Aleksandar Volkov, itd. All of them are our former fighters. They were not known at the beginning of their careers but now they are all doing excellent. Fighters of the other promoters who moved in UFC are often fired after a while because, here in Russia, they did not face tough opposition.
How do you fight the departure of your fighters to the West?
VF: “Ovdje, I disagree with you. It used to be that way. Sada, to the contrary, many fighters want to perform in M-1 because it is no less prestigious than performing for Bellator, where the emphasis is on the show. Example of this are Alexander Shlemenko, Sergej Kharitonov, and others. These warriors gladly come to us and agree to fight here because the opposition in M-1 is not weak. Naravno, regarding the departure of the fighters to the West, money plays a great role. But there are fighters who are grateful to M-1 for fame they gained. We paved the road to a greatness for them and, consequently, they do not rush to leave M-1 anywhere.

PHILLY PROMOTER ARTIE PELLULO: “FLANAGAN-PETROV STEALS THE SHOW AND COULD BE FIGHT OF THE YEAR!”

Za immediate release

Filadelfija, PA / Manchester, UK (Ožujak 30, 2017)–Legendary Philadelphia fight face Artie Pellulo lands in the UK early next week confident of adding a 45th world champion to his stellar CV.
The 61 year old Italian-American’s highly regarded lightweight Petr Petrov (38-4-2) makes a mandatory challenge to home hero ‘Turbo TerryFlanagan, the undefeated WBO king, at Manchester Arena u subotu week and he looks like being frantic. BT Sport and BoxNation screen live in the UK.
Last Wednesday, Glynn Evans spoke to the Philly-based promoter.
It’s been extremely difficult to find any background info regarding Petrov’s personality. Can you enlighten us?
I’ve been promoting fighters for almost 30 godina, uključujući 44 world champions and I have to say that Petr is one of the nicer individuals I’ve come across; the type you’d have over your house. He’s just married the girl he’d been dating for a very long time. He’s a gentleman, a pleasure to work with.
Psychologically, how will he cope performing before thousands of baying Brits?
I’ve consistently gone on record as saying that the British fight fans are terrific. You’ll recall I had dealings with Ricky Hatton. They support their heroes like no other. But I guarantee that the crowd will not adversely affect Petrov.
Being on the road is actually like being at home for him because he’s never ever fought in Russia and hasn’t featured in his adopted homeland of Spain for five years. He’s won all six of his fights in the US and, before that, he competed in Germany, Argentina and Montenegro. I guarantee that facing a partisan crowd in Manchester will not affect his job. Zapravo, it will energize him, excite him.
And I’ve no problem whatsoever with the officials in the UK. Matter of fact, I won my first world title in Britain when Otis Grant outpointed Ryan Rhodes in his hometown of Sheffield for the vacant WBO Middleweight title way back in (Prosinac) 1997.
Prije toga, my fighter Tyrell Biggs was officially ahead on the referee’s card before Gary Mason knocked him out on a Mickey Duff show at the Royal Albert Hall (Listopad 1989) and John Thompson was up on the cards before Liam Smith put him to bed at this very venue 18 months back. You always get a fair shake with the Brits.
What are Petrov’s qualities as a fighter?
I discovered him during his involvement in the ESPN Boxcino Lightweight tournament in early 2014 a, trust me, between the ropes, he’s the real deal. You only have to watch his tapes to appreciate that he’s relentless, smart, can box or punch and he’s blessed with a very good eye. Petr has a real understanding of what is going on in the ring at any given moment and he can adopt accordingly. He gives a 110% effort every time.
What is your assessment of champion Flanagan? What does Petrov need to be mindful of?
I was ringside the night Terry Flanagan hammered Diego Magdaleno in two rounds because John Thompson challenged Liam Smith that night and what I saw was a very, very good fighter. Terry’s a smart southpaw who’s very tough and keeps coming. Bez sumnje, he’ll be looking to extend his very impressive unbeaten streak.
What course did you see the fight taking? What key factor will determine the winner?
This fight steals the show and could well be Fight of the Year, seriously. It’s that good a match up. Both Terry and Petr are TV friendly and fan friendly. It’s gonna be great theatre.
There’s no main factor that distinguishes one over the other. It’ll be about how two fighters at the very top of their games handle the pressure and stay with their game plan.

One of the most feared heavyweights in the world, Ortiz has worked his way into the WBA’s mandatory position to fight the winner of the Anthony Joshua-Wladimir Klitschko, who fight for Joshua’s IBF and the vacant WBA Super World Championship. The Cuban-born fighter had previously picked up the interim title in 2015 with a stoppage of Matias Ariel Vidondo and defended the title with a dominant knockout of former title challenger Bryant Jennings later that year. Last year saw Ortiz continue to run through heavyweight contenders as he earned TKO victories over Tony Thompson and David Allen plus a victory over Malik Scott.

 

Fighting out of Medford, Njujork, Rossy was a 2004 Golden Gloves champion and a defensive end for Boston College before turning pro in October 2004. Rossy owns victories over Axror Muralimov, Ray Mercer and Carl Drumond in addition to challenges top heavyweights Eddie Chambers, Vyacheslav Glazkov and Bermane Stiverne. This will be the ninth undefeated fighter that Rossy faces in his pro career.

 

Raised in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn, Serrano gravitated toward boxing from watching her older sister Cindy, also a professional fighter. She picked the sport up quickly, gomilanje 9-1 record during a brief amateur career in which she won the New York Golden Gloves title in 2008. The 28-year-old would go on to fight all over the world, seizing her first world title in 2011 when she defeated Kimberly Connor to grab a super featherweight belt. U 2014, she went to Argentina and defeated Maria Elena Maderna to become a world champion at lightweight. Her world title climb continued in 2016 as she stopped Olivia Gerula in the first round to capture her featherweight championship and followed that up with a victory over Alexandra Lazar to add a super bantamweight title to her collection. She most recently put on a show at Barclays Center in January when she defeated two-division champion Yazmin Rivas by unanimous decision.

 

Evo što su sudionici imali za reći Četvrtak from Gallagher’s Steakhouse in Manhattan:

 

LUIS ORTIZ

 

“I’m not a man of many words, but yesterday was my birthday, so with that extra year of experience, I’ll speak a little bit more.

 

“I’m ready to fight right now. I’m waiting for the opportunity to fight the winner of Anthony Joshua vs. Wladimir Klitschko. They better get ready, because ‘King Kong’ will be waiting for them.

 

“I work very hard to stay in shape. All year round I am in the gym and staying ready. When the time comes and I have a fight offered, I will always be ready.

 

“My plan is to become the heavyweight champion of the world. I feel like I’m with the right team now that will open those doors for me. Koga god bi stavili ispred mene, I will take care of them.

 

“I love fighting in New York because there are such smart fans here who really love boxing. They love the knockout and I’m excited to be here to do my job.

 

“I’ve been working hard and waiting to get a victory on Travanj 22. Once I get past this bout, it’s on to bigger and better things. I’ll find out everything about Rossy that I need to know on Travanj 22 and put on a great show.

 

“Age is nothing to me. So many fighters have competed into their late age. I still have a lot left in the tank.

 

“I would love to fight Deontay Wilder. We’re both big, tough fighters. These are the kind of fights that people want to see. I know that my time will come.

 

“We’re looking forward to this new relationship and this first fight on Travanj 22. I can’t wait to get out there in front of the fans and show my skills. I believe it will finally be time for ‘King Kong’ to come out of the jungle.”

 

DERRIC Rossy

 

“When they brought the fight to me, I said let’s do it. We’re doing it right by fighting at Barclays Center.

 

“This is a real fight. Ja sam uvijek spreman. The fans are who pays us and they want to see a legitimate fight. This is going to be a quality matchup on Travanj 22.

 

“I think our styles will match up well. He throws his hands well and I think I do the same. I sometimes try to be more evasive and I’m anticipating him bringing it. There might be some bull in a China shop, but then it could turn. We both adapt well in the ring.

 

“You can’t ask for anything better than this kind of fight. We’re both top-notch heavyweights and we’re going to go at it. It’s a thrill for me to be there regardless, but I think the fans are really going to be the winners.

 

“I’ve fought a lot of really good heavyweights. I won’t know how he stacks up until I get in there with him. All I know is that he’s tough, rugged and good.

 

“My situation is that I always have to stay ready in the gym. I happened to be ready when the call came and I said yes as soon as I could.

 

“I’m going to win this fight and it’s going to set up some big things. I’m in this business to get a world title. I have to go through Luis Ortiz to get there.”

 

AMANDA SERRANO

 

“I can’t wait to get back in the ring and put on a show in front of the fans. That’s what I love to do and it’ll be great to do it at Barclays Center.

 

“I’m motivated to make history. This would be my sixth world title in five weight divisions. This is a goal that my whole team has had. We want me to be the first Puerto Rican fighter to conquer five divisions. I want to be known as the girl who made history.

 

“I think every fighter wants to be known as the best in the world. If I’m not the best, I want to be one of the best. I want to be remembered and open the door for girls around the world.

 

“I’m very thankful for everyone who came out here today. This is a great opportunity for me on Travanj 22. I’m going for history. I want this so badly. I train hard and I have a great team taking care of me.

 

“What better place to make history than at Barclays Center in Brooklyn? No matter who they put in front of me, it’s going to be a night of fireworks. I’m doing this for female boxing. I’m going to show how much talent we have. This is the one that I want more than anything. I always put on a show for my fans in Brooklyn and my eyes are on the prize.”

 

LOU DIBELLA, Predsjednik DiBella Entertainment

 

“I’m really happy today to announce some great additions to a terrific card on Travanj 22 in Brooklyn and live on SHOWTIME. Everyone knows the main event is a great fight in the welterweight division. We also announced a 154-pound matchup as the co-main event with Jermell Charlo vs. Charles Hatley.

 

“The biggest announcement is that a very big man, is going to be on this card. All Luis Ortiz has done as a professional fighter is knock guys out. He’s one of the most feared and avoided men in the heavyweight division. Ortiz and his team want the biggest fights out there. He knows that being seen on a card of this magnitude is a tremendous opportunity.

 

“I know that Luis Ortiz has a big victory in mind on Travanj 22 that will propel him to a bigger fight and eventually to the biggest fights in the world. This guy deserves the opportunity.

 

“Amanda Serrano is a great champion. She’s one of the best pound-for-pound female fighters I the world today. No female fighter in history has ever won five titles in five weight classes. But it’s even more amazing, given the long history of the sport on the island, that no Puerto Rican fighter has ever become a five-division world champion. Na Travanj 22 Amanda Serrano will attempt to make history.

 

“Amanda has won titles as heavy as 135-pounds and now she’ll be fighting at 118-pounds. That’s an amazing achievement. She’s always fought the best out there and she’s always proven that she is the best. She deserves the attention she’s getting. She may be the best fighter I promote, razdoblje. This woman stands should-to-shoulder with any of them.”

 

“I know that Derric Rossy is going to give a test to Ortiz. But he’s never been predicted to win. Every time I watch his fight against Bermane Stiverne, I saw him winning the fight. This guy is a real professional and he deserves this opportunity.

 

STEPHEN Espinoza, Executive VP & General Manager, Showtime Sport

 

“We’re thrilled to be here announcing such a fantastic undercard from top to bottom. Amanda Serrano is looking to become the first woman and Puerto Rican to win world titles in five weight classes. A card this deep, you know that it is a SHOWTIME card.

 

“These are the kind of cards that SHOWTIME, Lou DiBella and Barclays Center are working on every day. This was a good event and now it is a great event.”

 

Brett YORMARK, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Zabava

 

“It’s been a special start to the year for Brooklyn Boxing. You think about Siječanj 14 and March 4 and what great nights those were. Now we have Travanj 22 and it has become a special card. We’re excited about what we’re building in Brooklyn. We’re making great strides.

 

“I want to welcome Luis Ortiz to Barclays Center for the first time. I’m sure it will be a special night. We’re thrilled to welcome back Amanda Serrano as well for what should be a historic night.

 

“We’re going to continue to put on the biggest and best events we can. It’s been a great start to the year and we’re looking forward to more to come.”

Palm Springs Boxing Gala Rescheduled for May 20th; Fighter Injuries Delaying Scheduled Matchups

Za immediate release

Thousand Palms, KAO ŠTO (Ožujak 29, 2017) — The much anticipated showdown between rising Liveco boxer maksimum “The GeneralBecerra i Washingtonu Ricardo Maldonado will have to wait a little longer.
Santa Ana’s Becerra (11-2-2 7Kos) has been diagnosed with a minor hand injury that has interrupted his training for the scheduled Travanj 22 bout that was the featured fight of the Palm Springs Boxing Gala na Renaissance Hotel. The event will now take place on Subota, Svibanj 20 with the same fight card.
The postponement also gives Liveco stablemate Pomona’s DavidLeft Hook” Lopez (4-0 3Kos) more time to heal while nursing a hand injury also sustained in training.

Liveco Boxing founder Ron Sanderson said, “In light of these injuries, we thought it would be best for our boxers and our fans to postpone the Gala rather than scramble together fights at the last minute or drop a fighter from the card. Injuries are a part of boxing. These boxers are significant players in the Liveco family and we want them to be healthy and uncompromised for their fights.

Sanderson said Lopez and Becerra’s hand issues are not considered major injuries, but after further medical evaluation, their trainers decided it would be better for them to fully heal and train appropriately rather than put their fighters at risk.

svibnja 20 event is the second of a series of Boxing Galas planned by Liveco Boxing featuring its fighters in Palm Springs. Also scheduled to fight on the undercard that evening are the Bay Area’s EricEl Gallo de Oro” (9-0 6Kos) and DanielEl PanteraAndujo (3-1-0 1KO) from Murrieta along with other California talent.

Becerra and Lopez dispatched their opponents at the first Palm Springs Boxing Gala with tremendous showings in front of a packed house. Both are looking to continue their streak in the Coachella Valley as is Andujo who also collected a win at the Gala in February before signing with Liveco.

Becerra said he was anxious and ready for his first fight as a headliner, especially in his home state. “This is going to be a huge night for me and my team. But I know I need to be patient and get my hand back in shape before I can continue chasing my dream.
