Cardone has overseen numerous accomplishments during his time with the school, including the NYC Freshman and Sophomore Title and becoming undefeated Region 4 Division Champions. “He has changed the lives of many wrestlers in the school by being with them through both good and hard times as a friend and a coach.”
Volunteer of the Year: David Prado
Prado has been involved in wrestling since he was in elementary school and attended Arizona State on an athletic scholarship.

26-Fortuna tahun, La Romana, Republik Dominika, telah menjadi menonjol di tinju sejak hari-harinya sebagai amatir dihiasi yang berpartisipasi dalam Pan SMP Kejuaraan Amerika perdana di 2003. Dianggap sebagai salah satu pejuang yang paling menarik dalam olahraga, Fortuna memenangkan gelar saat ini dengan keputusan bulat lebih Bryan Vasquez Mei 2015. Dia membela berhasil pada bulan September tahun lalu dengan TKO 10 lebih Carlos Ivan Velasquez. Fortuna sebelumnya memenangkan WBA bulu Championship Interim dengan mengalahkan sebelumnya tak terkalahkan Patrick Hyland pada bulan Desember 2012. Kidal kuat juga dikenal untuk mencetak gol sorot KO gulungan atas lawan tangguh termasuk Yuandale Evans (SIAPA 1) dan Miguel Zamudio (KO 1). Fortuna dipromosikan oleh Sampson Boxing.
28-Sosa tahun, Camden, New Jersey, adalah bangga Puerto Rico keturunan. Ia mendapatkan tembakan judul dan tertangkap mata dunia tinju pada bulan Desember tahun lalu oleh berjuang untuk imbang kejutan dengan satu pejuang atas olahraga, dua kali Nicholas juara dunia “Axe Man” Walters Jamaika. Pertarungan disiarkan di HBO Boxing After Dark. Sebuah puncher kuat, Sosa mengendarai 13-laga knockout beruntun sebelum menghadapi Walters. Sosa juga dikenal karena gaya dan besi agresif dagunya. Dia telah disebut petarung terbaik untuk keluar dari Camden sejak mantan juara dunia Dwight “Camden Buzzsaw” Muhammad Qawi. Sosa dipromosikan oleh Peltz Tinju.
Inilah yang promotor, peserta dan pelatih mereka katakan:
Javier Fortuna
Saya merasa hebat. Saya merasa terhormat untuk bertarung di Cina.
Dia seorang pejuang yang kuat dan dia selalu berpikir ke sana. Namun, Saya merasa bahwa aku lebih berbakat dan memiliki kemampuan lebih. Saya juga memiliki kekuatan meninju kuat.
Saya telah menunggu kesempatan ini. Saya melihat ke depan untuk laga ini untuk tim saya dan negara saya.
Saya telah berjuang pemukul sebelumnya dan saya kotak mereka sampai kekuasaan mereka mulai menghilang dan kemudian saya bergemuruh dengan mereka.
Saya menghargai semua cinta yang saya dapatkan dari para fans, worldwide. Itu sebabnya saya berlatih keras: to gain fans and to make myself the best fighter I can be.
Jason Sosa
Ini adalah kesempatan besar. This is what every fighter dreams of: to fight for a world title.
It depends on what kind of fight Fortuna wants. I’ll be in there fighting smart and just see what kind of fight he wants to bring. We can go to war, or we can box. It’s up to him.
He’s a little aggressive. A little wild. Just another guy.
I’m not really doing anything different training for him. Everything I’m doing is working, so I don’t fix anything that’s not broken.
I’m excited and nervous to fight in China. It’s my first time out of the country for me. I can’t wait to go there and I know it’ll be a beautiful experience.
Mr. Min Du Modoson
Kami sangat senang dapat bermitra dengan mak comblang internasional dan promotor Sampson Lewkowicz untuk membawa kelas dunia tinju ke daerah Cina.
Javier Fortuna memiliki apa yang diperlukan untuk menjadi bintang di Cina. Dia dan lawan yang layak nya akan disambut dengan tangan terbuka oleh orang-orang kami.
Mr. Liu Gang
Acara ini akan menjadi besar di negara China. Perusahaan kita, MPP, gembira untuk bekerja dengan Sampson Lewkowicz dan dapat membawa seperti pertarungan besar untuk orang-orang.
Cina adalah negara yang kaya tinju. Petinju di sini adalah pahlawan bagi rakyat. Kedua pejuang akan diperlakukan seperti selebriti dan pertarungan akan diawasi oleh jutaan dan jutaan orang.

Javier Fortuna akan menghadapi pejuang dengan hampir sebagai kekuatan sebanyak dia, dan ia harus menjadi yang terbaik untuk mendapatkan kemenangan lain.
Russell Peltz
Ini akan menjadi pertarungan besar dan Sosa melihat ke depan untuk memenangkan gelar juara dunia.
Sosa hanya memegang sendiri dan berjuang untuk imbang dengan salah satu lightweights junior top di dunia, Nicholas Walters, dan meningkatkan tingkat kepercayaan yang lebih tinggi.
Fortuna dan Sosa adalah ukuran yang sama, jadi saya berpikir bahwa ini baik. Sosa juga memiliki sparring besar dengan hander kiri lain yang sangat baik, Tevin Petani. Mereka sekandang. Tevin adalah imitasi sempurna, ukuran bijaksana, bukan gaya bijaksana, Fortuna.
Hector Bermudez (Fortuna Trainer)
Saya pikir itu akan menjadi pertarungan yang sangat baik untuk Fortuna untuk memamerkan bakatnya internasional.
Sosa adalah lawan yang bagus bahwa kita harus berlatih keras untuk dan difokuskan terhadap. Ini tidak akan mudah tetapi Fortuna adalah pelatihan keras dan harus menjadi pertarungan besar.
Sosa adalah pejuang tekanan dan pons besar dengan tangan kiri. Dia kasar dan melempar kombinasi.
Saya, sebagai pelatih, Saya sudah memilih Sosa terpisah. Dia Menekuk lutut banyak. Dia pasti agresif dan memiliki hook kiri yang besar.
Raul Rivas
Ini akan menjadi pertarungan yang menarik.
Fortuna sangat berbakat, tapi saya percaya bahwa ini adalah saat yang tepat untuk Jason untuk mengambil laga ini. Dia berjuang oposisi yang lebih baik.
Fortuna adalah pejuang yang datang untuk melawan, dan kami datang untuk melawan, jadi saya percaya itu akan menjadi pertarungan yang sangat menarik, dengan dua orang melakukan apa yang mereka lakukan yang terbaik di luar sana.
Saya percaya kami memiliki lebih baik dan lebih kuat tempur, jadi saya seperti peluang kami.
Aku belum pernah ke Cina, tidak memiliki Jason. Kami menantikan pengalaman sebagai sebuah tim; berada di suatu negara dan pengalaman sesuatu yang berbeda yang berbeda. Aku tahu cinta penduduk Cina tinju, dan olahraga tempur. Kami mengharapkan acara besar.

WBA Interim Champ Zhakiyanov and Camp Respond to ‘Blatantly False’ Rumors Being Spread by Super Flyweight Contender Zolani Tete
Interim WBA World Bantamweight Champion Zhanat “ZZ” Zhakiyanov (26-1, 18 Biaya) and his representatives are now forced to respond to the deliberate falsehoods being distributed by the team around South African super flyweight Zolani Tete. Zhakiyanov of Petropavl, Kazakhstan, is a proud warrior, who has been willing to face anyone from the start of his career. Which is what makes the blatantly false and intentionally misleading allegations by Tete’s camp so infuriating.
Tete and his manager, Mla Tengimfene, have been feeding the media a fictional story that Zhakiyanov recently backed out of a purported fight between the two, supposedly scheduled for Bulan Juni 4 at Echo Arena in Liverpool.
One problem.
Zhakiyanov and his people were never even contacted about such a fight. It never existed.
“I have never heard from anyone about this fight,” said Zhakiyanov. “They are saying I can’t make the weight and that’s why I can’t fight him. I was never supposed to fight him! He and his people are telling stories.”
Zhakiyanov’s manager, Philippe Fondu, wonders why the media would even believe such a fight ever existed when a quick check of the WBA rule book would have eliminated all talk of such a match-up.
“There were some unfounded rumors on the net about Zhanat defending against Tete a while ago, but having never received any concrete proposal from anyone, including his new promoter Frank Warren, I never paid any specific attention to these rumors. But let’s be honest here. Zhanat Zhakiyanov is the reigning interim WBA Bantamweight champion and Tete is actually boxing for other world organizations (IBF and/or WBO). Selanjutnya, Tete is rated #9 in the WBA super-flyweight division (115 lb.). Such a contest could obviously not even be considered, as a WBA Interim 118-lb. champion can only defend his title against a WBA top-15 rated boxer in the 118 lb. division.”
Fondu also says that Zhakiyanov, promoted by Hatton Promotions, is fully capable of making the 118-lb weight limit and welcomes any and all viable fight proposals approvable by the WBA.
“I have been in boxing many years and I understand using the media to get a fighter’s name in print,” continued Fondu, “but they are using the name of a champion and proud representative of his home country of Kazakhstan to do it and it’s not right. Hopefully the media will get more responsible about checking the facts in the future.”
