Two-Time Gold Medalist and Professional Superstar Claressa Shields and Her Team Send Congratulations to USA Boxing’s Olympic Medal Winners

Ostavite komentar
Two-time Olympic champion Claressa Shields, from Flint, Michigan, is proud of Team USA’s Olympic boxing medalists and the whole USA Boxing squad, which featured five female participants for the first time. The only American boxer ever to win back-to-back Olympic gold medals, Shields stood atop the medal podium at the first-ever Olympic Games to feature women’s boxing in 2012, before duplicating the feat at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. The reigning middleweight Olympic champion was pleased with the United States’ performance at the Tokyo Olympics, which featured three silver medals and a bronze in the first appearance of a women’s welterweight competition.


“I’m super proud of the U.S. tim. The Olympics is the hardest tournament to medal in and all of you showed a lot of grit, hard work, determination and skill,”Rekao je Shields.


Earning medals in Tokyo were female welterweight O’shae Jones from nearby Toledo, Ohio, who took home a bronze, as well as a pair of professional boxers in Duke Ragan (perolaka kategorija) and Keyshawn Davis (lak), and California’s Richard Torrez Jr, (super heavyweight) who each won silver medals. The four medals represent the highest total for Team USA since Ricardo Juarez, Ricardo Williams, Clarence Vinson and Jermain Taylor grabbed hardware (two silver and two bronze) na 2000 Olimpijske igre.


The 2020 Olympic Games featured the addition of two women’s weight divisions, bantamweight (119 lbs) i velter (152 lbs), which shows the continued growth of the sport of women’s boxing throughout the world.


Štitovi, who in addition to her two Olympic gold medals has won ten world titles in three weight divisions and become undisputed champion in two weight classes in just eleven fights as a professional and recently launched a two-sport career with her professional MMA debut for the PFL, says that having Jones as another American female professional boxer sporting an Olympic medal would be good for the sport. Jones has previously expressed a desire to enter the pro ranks.


“An injection of new top-level talent is always positive,”Rekao je Shields (11-0-0, 2 Kos), who aside from making her successful MMA fighting debut in June, made history last March by dethroning Canada’s Marie-Eve Dicaire and becoming the first boxer in the four-belt era to be an undisputed champion in two divisions. She also retained her WBC and WBO junior middleweight titles with the victory and claimed Dicaire’s IBF belt, as well as the vacant WBA Championship. “The idea of a new generation of ladies turning pro and deepening the talent pool with Olympic-level skills will be good for the sport of women’s boxing.”


Shields went 77-1 as an amateur and turned professional after her second Olympic victory in 2016. Her 2017 battle with Szilvia “Sunset” Szabados was the first female main event to be broadcast on American premium television. In addition to currently being the WBC, WBO, IBF and WBA champion at 154 funti, Shields had previously unified all four of the major sanctioning body belts at middleweight (160 lbs.).


Shields has had a dominating, record-breaking run thus far in her professional career, tearing through other women once considered the best in their divisions with relative ease. She and Great Britain’s Katie Taylor, also undefeated as a pro, have lifted women’s boxing to new heights in recent years, leading an increasingly deeper talent pool that will only get deeper with the addition of the 2020 Olympians from around the world.


Shields’ manager, Mark Taffet of Mark Taffet Media, agrees that the impending influx of new talent to women’s boxing will benefit the sport as a whole.


“I’m excited for the four Americans who brought home Olympic medals this year, particularly welterweight bronze medal winner Oshae Jones who I believe will be one to watch in the next few years,” said Taffet. “The female boxing talent pool, and importantly the U.S. pool, continues to improve and bodes well for the future of women’s boxing and the continued gains toward equality across the board.”


Shields’ promoter, Dmitriy Salita of Salita Promotions, says he’s excited for the future and proud of USA Boxing, who produced four medal winners while undergoing a deadly pandemic that severely hampered the ability to train properly


“As a former amateur and professional boxer, I know the sacrifices required to fight on the elite level and I congratulate Team USA for all of its successes this year, even through all the added challenges that Covid-19 created,”Rekla je Salita.

Texas Twins Jordan & Josh Jenkins on special Mission to Write American Boxing History

2020 USA National Boxing ChampionshipsMore. 25-Travnja. 4, in Shreveport, Louisiana

COLORADO SPRINGS, Krug. (Ožujak 1, 2021) — Texas twins Zadirkivati (L) a Jordan (R) Jenkins are on a mission to become the first twins ever to be on a Team USA Olympic Boxing Team.


They will both be competing in the elite division at the 2020 USA Boks nacionalnim prvenstvima, postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic from last December to March 25 – Travanj 3, in Shreveport, Louisiana.


The Jenkins twins have overcome numerous obstacles in Dallas, primarily their father’s long incarceration, subsequently getting into trouble and constantly fighting others in school. And that doesn’t even include COVID-19 restrictions that limited gym time and eliminated tournament competition this past year.


They were fortunate to have their grandfather, kasno Guilford Childress, who was the most significant male influence in their lives. “We played all sports but were getting into trouble fighting in school,” older brother by 1 minute Josh said. “Our grandfather took us to the gym, but our mother didn’t want us to box. He and my godfather, Darryl Thomas, who was also a father figure for us, trained us. Our grandfather used to come to school when we got in trouble. He was our disciplinarian. He’d take us right out of training at the gym or stop us from sparring for two weeks. He didn’t just want us to be champion boxers, he wanted us to become mature men.


“Two years ago, Greg Hatley became our trainer. Everything changed for us when we started being trained by Coach Hatley. Our styles completely changed, and we started settling down in the ring, and picking spots. Coach Hatley has had a big impact on our lives. He’s taught us how to be men. He’s a roofer and he taught us how to roof, change oil and tires, and save our money for later.”


The twins work for Amazon in a warehouse. Jordan is a brawling lightweight, while welterweight Josh is more of a boxer. Have they ever switched places and fought under the other’s name? “Everybody asks us that,” laughed Jordan. "Ne, Josh is bigger than me.”


They’ve been competing in the elite division for the past couple of years, and both have reached the semifinals of major tournaments, but they’re ready to break out at the upcoming National Championships.


The Jenkins twins have had their training impacted. like most other amateur boxers, but not terribly, yet different from what they were used to. At first there were limitations at their gym, but once restrictions opened-up, they were able to train more often, spread out more than normal at the gym while working out, and COVID-19 tested monthly.


The dream for “Twin Nation”, coined by their grandfather when Josh and Jordan were in the seventh grade, is becoming the first twins on a Team USA Boxing Olympic Team, something late grandfather first mentioned to them. “We want to be the first twins on the US Olympic Boxing Team so kids can look up to us,” Jordan noted. “We want to prove that kids labeled as bad can still be successful growing up in an environment like ours. A lot of friends we grew up with are dead or in jail. We’ve worked had to change our lives and we’re looking ahead to Paris (site of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games)."


Their remarkable journey reaches a new level at the Nationals. They aren’t in a rush to go pro, ili. Oh, they both intend to be professional boxers, but only when they’re ready as a tandem.


“We’re humble,” Josh concluded. “We’ve had a lot of bumps and bruises. We could have gone left or right. A lot of our friends went one way, but we went the other way, a
became boxers.”

po: Što Andz

WhatsApp pinguje u 10 sati ... “Bok, ovo je tvoja teretana, zbog koronavirusa teretana je do daljnjeg zatvorena. ".

Ako ste poput mene, i treba vam ono visoko trkačko mjesto da biste provjerili svoje tijelo i um, tada je gornja poruka bio sudbinski scenarij. Zaboravite na toaletni papir, Trebam svoje utege!

To je za mene, posjetitelj teretane…što je s osobnim trenerima, MMA borci, hrvači, boksači koji zarađuju za život za sve ono na što nas Covid-19 prisiljava da ne radimo?

Ta zanimanja možda nisu „bitna usluga“ poput vozača hitne pomoći i supermarketa, ali ti su profesionalci bitna usluga u danima koji dolaze za naš um, tijelo, i duša svih, posebno tijekom epidemije iz dana u dan postaju sve bitnije, čak i po satu.

Dobra vijest je…digitalna komunikacija fizičke umjetnosti NIJE nova stvar. Video za vježbanje, hrvanje i MMA borbe digitalizirani su počevši od TV spotova, YouTube i gotovo svugdje gdje možete pronaći zaslon.

Prvi korak je zapitati se, kako do sada nudite svoje usluge?

Sada, možete li to ponoviti ispred kamere? 

Sada, možete li koristiti računalo i stvari staviti na web mjesto?
(Pogledaj ovo https://www.capterra.com/sem-compare/membership-management-software)

Ej! Imate posao!

Gotovo svaka obrazovna usluga, čak se i fizička može digitalizirati i prikazati. Ne, neće biti tako dobro kao prave stvari i ne, ne možete očekivati ​​od svojih klijenata da posjeduju opremu koja radi u teretani…

…No, ovdje je lukav dio i tu je razlika između uspješne kampanje i one koja nije ...

Prvo što treba shvatiti je, ljudi će platiti vrijednost, posebno u ovo doba kada se potrošnja mora dobro obaviti. Dakle, učinimo to dobro

Opcija A: Ton dolje. Oprema je uglavnom nepristupačna, tako promijenite svoj program treninga da vam ne trebaju ti fantastični dijelovi. Zapitaj se, na što možete zamijeniti ili isključiti rutinu i još uvijek postići utjecaj koji tražite?

Stubište se može zamijeniti stepenicama, utezi se mogu zamijeniti kamenjem (pažljivo).

Ako napravite video zapise s treninga s ovom umanjenom opremom, čineći to nečim što svi mogu učiniti, na bilo koji proračun, ti si sebi pobjednik.

Ovo je ujedno i mogućnost kombiniranja u drugim službama koje djeluju zajedno, poput prehrane tijekom izolacije. Beskrajna razina prilika, možda čak i više nego normalno.

Opcija B: The Upsell – Ljudi nemaju tu opremu, zašto ih ne biste dobili. Sve trgovine trpe. Posegnite za ovim trgovinama i tvornicama i sklopite ugovor kojim ćete pomoći u olakšanju njihove prodaje.

Zauzvrat, oglašavate poseban popust na najbolju opremu. Cijelo to vrijeme počinjete zarađivati ​​provizije na tim rasprodajama. Istinska win-win za sve. Ako trebate pomoć oko digitalnog marketinga, čavrljaj s tim momcima.

Imajte na umu svoju publiku, demografski i kako se prodaje.

Znam da su to novovjekovne marketinške taktike za one koji prizemlje teretana, to su vremena u kojima se moramo naučiti prilagoditi i mijenjati…ili nestati.

Jamel “Semper Fi” Herring Patriot, Olimpski & now World Champ

Ostavite komentar
USA Boxing Alumni: (L) Jamel Herring and his stablemate, Terence “Pupoljak” Crawford

COLORADO SPRINGS, Krug. (Lipanj 13, 2019) – Newly crowned World Boxing Organization (WBO) super featherweight champion Jamel “Semper Fi” Haringa has been a fighter practically all his life as a U.S. Marine and elite boxer.

The 33-year-old Herring (20-2, 10 Kos), fighting out of Cincinnati, has come full circle since he started boxing at the age of 15. “I started because I was doing poorly in school, cut from the basketball team,” he explained on why he chose the Sweet Science. “I didn’t want to be in the streets. It was not my character, so I had to find something else to do. A friend introduced me to boxing and I stuck with it. I eventually got my grades back up and made high honor roll.”


Herring also developed into an Olympic boxer, mostly while he was serving nine years in the U.S. Marines, and even when he was deployed twice in Iraq. He compiled an 81-15 amaterski rekord, including top honors at the 2011 & 2012 Armed Forces Championships, 2011 U.S. Olympic Trials and 2012 US Nationals gold medalist, along with a silver medal at the 2010 World Military Games. He was the first active duty U.S. Marine to qualify for the US Boxing Team since 1992, as well as the first U.S. Marine to compete in the 2012 Olimpijske igre.

“I boxed a little during my second deployment during free time,” he noted. “I came back from my second deployment toward the end of 2007 and began boxing for the Marine Corps in 2008. Most of my amateur career came under the Marine Corps. I learned a lot traveling with the Marine Corps. I got to see more styles and competed in national tournaments as a Marine. They also had the funding to send me.”

The highlight of his amateur career was representing his country at the 2012 Olympics in London as captain of Team USA. Although he lost (19-9) in the opening round to two-time Kazakh boxer Daniyar Yeleussinov, who won gold at the 2013 World Championships and later at the 2016 Olimpijske igre, the opening Olympic ceremonies was the most memorable moment of his entire amateur boxing career for a special reason.

“That was the anniversary of my daughter’s passing,” Herring said. “It let me know that no matter what, you can still accomplish anything, even through ups and downs.”

Other members of the 2012 USA Olympic Team Herring captained included present day world champions in the pro ranks such as Errol Spence, Jr., Claressa Shields a Marcus Browne, Bivši svjetski prvak Rau’Shee Warren, and world title challengers Terrell Gausha, Michael Hunter a Dominic Breazeale.


Herring remains close to USA Boxing, kazivanje: “USA Boxing helped me because of the relationships I created, many of which still remain today. I met other fighters from around the world that I kept good relationships with. It also helped me become more of the people-person I am today. Being team captain taught me patience, because I had to deal with a lot of personalities, I still use those traits today. And I’m still close to my Olympic teammates today.”

“Jamel is the perfect example of resiliency and persistence,” spomenuo Chris tofflemire, USA Boxing Alumni Association Director. “His hard work, žrtva, and inability to quit no matter what obstacles he encounters will continue to inspire the next generation of champions for many years. The USA Boxing Alumni Association wants to thank him for all that he has given to others, both in and out of the ring.”

Nothing has ever come easy for Jamel Herring, especially his remarkable turnaround after the tragic loss of his infant daughter, Ariyanah, which happened three years to the day prior to the opening ceremonies of the Olympics.

“My road wasn’t easy,” Herring added, “I had my ups and downs. I’m an Olympian, but nothing was ever handed to me. I had to fight for everything I’ve gotten. Ovo je moje vrijeme!”

It certainly is, particularly after he defeated defending WBO super featherweight champion Masayuki Ito, prošlog svibnja 25, postati svjetski prvak. Proof that good things do indeed happen to good people.

Troy Isley coming off biggest win, Preparing for 2020 Olimpijske igre

Ostavite komentar

COLORADO SPRINGS, Krug. (Svibanj 6, 2019) – USA Boxing middleweight Troy Isley is coming off the most significant victory of his young career, when he defeated the 2016 Zlatne olimpijske medalje, Cuba’s Arlen Lopez, at the recent Pan American Games Qualifier in Managua, Nikaragva.


Lopez served as a positive barometer for Isley in terms of his potential 2020 Olympic run. “Beating Lopez is my biggest win so far,” Isley admitted. “He won a gold medal at the last Olympics. I avenged my loss to him in 2017. We almost fought in The Continentals, but he lost in the quarterfinals, and I lost in the semifinals. We could face each other again in July at the Pan American Games.”

U 2017, Isley captured a gold medal at the Elite World Championships, which marked a first for an American elite boxer in six years. He’s progressed year-by-year, pohvaljujući najveće počasti na 2012 & 2013 National PAL Championships, 2014 Državne juniorske olimpijske igre, 2016 & 2017 Elite National Championships. So far this year, in addition to winning at the Pan American Games Qualifier, he also took gold at the Strandja Tournament in Bulgaria.

Not too shabby accomplishments for a kid who really didn’t like boxing, especially compared to football, which was his favorite sport growing up.

“When I returned to the gym I trained at, Aleksandrija (VA) Boxing Club,” USA National Team assistant coach Kay Koromba sjetio,” they needed help with a young kid, Troy Isley. I had a simple conversation with him. He said he’d come back to the gym if I was there coaching. I didn’t go back for a little while and he didn’t return. I eventually took over the gym when the coach left, and Troy returned.

“Troy is friends with Keyshawn Davje (USA Boxing’s No. 1-rated lightweight). They both live in Virginia (Troy in Alexandria, Keyshawn in Newport) and train with me at the Alexandria Boxing Club, when we aren’t living and training in Colorado Springs. They fought as kids and became good friends. All of the other boxers here look up to them.”

“Bio sam samo 8 and at first I really didn’t like boxing,” the now 20-year-old Isley spoke about his introduction to amateur boxing. “I was more interested in team sports like football, but I gave up boxing when I chose to compete in the Box-Offs. I just wanted to be a kid and you can’t play boxing. I went back to the gym and beat up everybody. Coach Kay told my father that he could make me into a national champion, and that gave me a lot of self-esteem.”

A self-described boxer puncher, Isley is an intelligent, well-spoken boxer with eyes on the future, outside of boxing, taking on-line business courses through DeVry University. “I can do it all,” he offered about his boxing style. “I’m working on using more jabs to be a better all-around boxer. The jab sets the offense up. I’m working on my jab because you can win fights with a jab.”

Promoters are lining up to pitch their companies to sign Isley, who has a definitive plan that involves making the 2020 USA Olympic Boxing Team, medal in Japan, and then turn professional.

“The Olympics is only a year away,” Isley noted. “I’m close with Keyshawn and Shakur(Stevenson, 2016 Olympic silver-medalist and an 11-0 pro prospect). Training with them makes things easier for all of us. We drive each other and train against different styles. I’m always picking up new stuff. We help each other training, boksovanje, and just talking. We’re always together, either in Alexandria or Colorado Springs. Shakur still goes there for good sparring.

“Shakur tells us a lot about his experiences in the Olympics and now as a pro. Me and Keyshawn have always talked about being together on the USA Boxing Olympic Team. We keep working hard and staying focused. It’s been our dream.”

Dreams do come true but, prvo, Isley is preparing for the Pan-Am Games and, possibly, his rubber match with the defending Olympic gold-medalist, Lopez.

CLARESSA SHIELDS INDUCTED INTO USA BOXING ALUMNI ASSOCIATION HALL OF FAME

Ostavite komentar
Paving the way for female boxers…..
Claressa Shields
“USA Boxing is family!”
SAD Boks Alumni Association, Razred 2018 Inductee

COLORADO SPRINGS, Krug. (Prosinac 3, 2018) – Two-time Olympic gold medalist Claressa Shields not only is spearheading a new wave in women’s boxing, she has developed into a true role model for countless youths.

 

 

 

Shields will be inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame this Friday night in Salt Lake City, along with Class of 2018 članovi Roy Jones Jr.. a, Andre Ward, as well as the late Emanuel Stewarta Tom Cleary.

 

 

 

The second annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception, held in conjunction with the 2018 USA Boxing Elite and Youth National Championships and Junior and Prep Open, Prosinac 2-8, will be held December 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) in Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

“I feel honored,” Shields spoke about being inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” I am only 23 years old and to be inducted into the USA Boxing Hall of Fame is a great honor, but also a shock to me. I believe I am worthy of any honor, but I know things take time, and I always thought I would put in the Hall of Fame at the age 40 ili 50. This is a big deal to me and I feel so honored. Just to have my name mentioned alongside names of greats like Andre Ward and Roy Jones just really motivates me. I feel privileged!”

 

 

 

The pride of Flint, Michigan, Shields has already successfully parlayed her amateur success to the professional ranks, in which she is 7-0 (2), and the reigning unified (IBF, WBA & WBC) svjetski prvak u srednjoj.

 

 

 

Shields finished her amateur career with an incredible 77-1 (18 Kos) rekord, highlighted by her Olympic gold-medal-performances in 2012 a 2016. She hasn’t lost in the ring since 2012, kada Savannah Marshall (Engleska) won on points, 14-8, at the World Championships in China.

 

 

 

“USA Boxing came into my life as a two-time Junior Olympic champion,” Claressa explained her USA Boxing relationship. “The help from USA Boxing was so important: just noticing me as a young athlete and knowing I would be a strong young woman to represent the USA in the future; sastanak Julie Goldsticker, who was a blessing for me as she helped me with a lot as a teenager, and just having Coach Abdullah, trener Al Mitchell, and coach Gloria Peek teach me different styles and how to use all my attributes. USA Boxing blessed me with a lot of knowledge and life-long friendships with all my Olympic teammates and Olympic coaches. My favorite coach, Koroma, literally was with me the whole way through 2015-2016, helping me outside the ring with advice and inside the ring.”

 

 

 

Shields is one of the driving forces in women’s boxing today, carrying the torch handed off by American female boxing pioneers such as Christy Martin, Laila Ali and a few others.

 

 

 

“There is great change going on right now — mene, Mikaela Mayer, Franchon Crews, Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano and a few other women are carrying the torch for women’s boxing right now,” Shields explained. “Progress has been fast, every network has had a women’s fight on television this year, especially Showtime, on which I have boxed the main event four times. Women’s boxing can go far. I believe the day will come when we can be paid millions just like men.”

 

 

 

By opening doors and breaking down obstacles, Claressa has become a true role model for youngsters all over, u boksu i van njega.

 

 

 

“It feels good to be a role model for them (females), and also for so many male boxers,” Shields noted. “Boxing is in a different era and I just want to make it easier for girls coming up, so when they turn pro, boxing will be closer to equality.”

 

 

 

“Claressa has one of the greatest stories in the history of amateur boxing,” rekla Chris tofflemire, SAD Boks Alumni udruga izvršni direktor. “Her drive, commitment, talent, and character made her a USA Boxing and Olympic champion, leaving a legacy that will last for a very long time. She is a trailblazer for women’s boxing and has established her place as one of the most influential USA Boxing Alumni members of all time. The USA Boxing Alumni Association wants to thank her for inspiring the amateur boxing community and serving as a great role model for the next generation of champions.”

Despite all the honors and accolades, she has so richly received, Shields hasn’t forgotten where it all started, and she’s still actively involved in USA Boxing.

 

 

 

“I keep in contact with a lot of the female athletes and give them advice if they ask me,” Claressa added. “I also went to Colorado for five days to be a motivator and keynote speaker for the Next Olympic Hopeful. After my career is over in about 15 godina, I want to be a boxing trainer and lead the women’s team to more Olympic gold medals, if given the opportunity. I also want to be a school teacher and a counselor for youth.”

 

 

 

Štitovi, nažalost, is unable to attend this Friday night’s Hall of Fame reception because she’s in deep training for her titles defense this Saturday evening on HBO, live from the StubHub Center in Carson, Kalifornija, protiv Fenmke Hermans (9-1).

 

 

 

“Nažalost,” Shields concluded, “I can’t be there but, if I was there, I would say: Thank you to USA Boxing for believing in me at the age of 16. It was an honor to represent America, not only once but two times in the Olympics! I thank Coach Štap (Walsh) for making me dig deep, by having to deal with his Irish ways and jokes, also for changing the culture of USA Boxing. A special thank you to coach Kay, also, I can’t count on my hands how many days we trained at 1 prije podne, how many times I knocked on his room door and ran, how many times he has had to take my phone from me because I was crying or having a family problem. He is the coach I could tell everything to, and he also blessed me with his boxing knowledge and made me always feel secure in myself when he was in the corner. USA Boxing isn’t just staff – USA Boxing is family! Even though I’ve had a few words with Matthew Johnson and other staff, I thank them for being hard on me and making sure I handled my responsibilities. Love to all USA Boxing staff, I’m truly thankful.”

 

 

 

Claressa Shields is much more than world and Olympian champion, she’s a class act as well, exactly what’s so desperately needed today.
