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

發表評論
Two-time Olympic champion Claressa Shields, 弗林特, 密歇根, 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. 球隊. The Olympics is the hardest tournament to medal in and all of you showed a lot of grit, hard work, determination and skill,“希爾茲說.


Earning medals in Tokyo were female welterweight O’shae Jones from nearby Toledo, 俄亥俄, who took home a bronze, as well as a pair of professional boxers in Duke Ragan (featherweight) and Keyshawn Davis (輕量級), 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) 在 2000 奧運會.


該 2020 Olympic Games featured the addition of two women’s weight divisions, 最輕量級 (119 磅) 和次中量級 (152 磅), which shows the continued growth of the sport of women’s boxing throughout the world.


希爾茲, 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,“希爾茲說 (11-0-0, 2 科斯), 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 英鎊, Shields had previously unified all four of the major sanctioning body belts at middleweight (160 磅。).


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,薩利塔說.

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

發表評論

2020 USA National Boxing Championships海. 25-四月. 4, in Shreveport, 路易斯安那州

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (三月 1, 2021) — Texas twins 喬希 (L) 和 約旦 (ř) 詹金斯 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 美國拳擊全國錦標賽, postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic from last December to March 25 – 四月 3, in Shreveport, 路易斯安那州.


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, 已故 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. “別, 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, 或. 哦, 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, 和
became boxers.”

將健身帶入數字時代

發表評論

由: 什麼安茲

WhatsApp 在上午 10 點發出 ping 信號……”嗨, 這是你的健身房, 由于冠狀病毒，健身房已關閉，直至另行通知”.

如果你和我一樣, 你需要那個跑步者的高潮來控制你的身心, 那麼上面的信息就是世界末日的情景. 忘記衛生紙, 我需要我的體重!

這對我來說, 一個健身愛好者…私人教練呢, MMA 戰士, 摔跤手, 靠 Covid-19 迫使我們不要做的一切謀生的拳擊手?

這些職業可能不像救護車司機和超市那樣是“基本服務”, 但這些專業人士在未來的日子裡是必不可少的服務, 體, 和每個人的靈魂, 特別是在流行病期間變得越來越重要, 甚至按小時.

好消息是…體育藝術的數字傳播並不是什麼新鮮事. 鍛煉視頻, 摔跤和 MMA 格鬥都從電視廣告開始數字化, YouTube 和幾乎任何可以找到屏幕的地方.

第一步是問自己, 到目前為止，您如何提供服務?

現在, 你能在相機前複製嗎? 

現在, 你能用電腦把東西放在會員網站上嗎?
(看一下這個 HTTPS://www.capterra.com/sem-compare/membership-management-software)

哎! 你有生意!

幾乎所有基於教育的服務, 甚至實物也可以數字化和呈現. 別, 它不會像真正的東西那麼好，沒有, 你不能指望你的客戶擁有健身房那樣的設備…

…但這是棘手的部分，這是成功的競選活動與不成功的競選活動之間的區別……

首先要明白的是, 人們會為價值買單, 尤其是在這個必須做好支出的時代. 所以讓我們做好

選項 A: 調低了. 設備大多無法訪問, 所以改變你的訓練計劃，不需要那些花哨的東西. 問你自己, 您可以在日常工作中換入或換出什麼，但仍然可以獲得您正在尋找的影響?

樓梯主管可以用樓梯代替, 重量可以用石頭代替 (小心).

如果您使用這些低調的設備製作訓練視頻, 讓它成為每個人都可以做的事情, 任何預算, 你讓自己成為贏家.

這也是結合其他服務的機會，例如隔離期間的營養. 無限的機會, 也許甚至比正常情況還要多.

選項 B: 追加銷售 – 人們沒有這些設備, 為什麼不把它交給他們. 所有商店都在受苦. 聯繫這些商店和工廠並達成協議，您將幫助他們促進銷售.

反過來, 你為最好的設備做廣告打折. 在您開始通過這些銷售賺取佣金積分的同時. 真正的雙贏. 如果您在數字營銷方面需要幫助, 和這些人聊天.

牢記你的聽眾, 它的人口統計及其營銷方式。

我知道這些是腳踏實地的健身房愛好者的新時代營銷策略, 這是我們必須學會適應和改變的時代…或消失.

CLARESSA SHIELDS INDUCTED INTO USA BOXING ALUMNI ASSOCIATION HALL OF FAME

發表評論
Paving the way for female boxers…..
Claressa盾
“USA Boxing is family!”
美國拳擊校友會, 等級 2018 Inductee

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (十二月 3, 2018) – Two-time Olympic gold medalist Claressa盾 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 成員 羅伊·瓊斯JR. 和, 沃德, as well as the late Emanuel Stewart和 湯姆·克利.

 

 

 

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, 十二月 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 或 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, 密歇根, 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) 世界中量級冠軍.

 

 

 

Shields finished her amateur career with an incredible 77-1 (18 科斯) 記錄, highlighted by her Olympic gold-medal-performances in 2012 和 2016. She hasn’t lost in the ring since 2012, 什麼時候 薩凡納·馬歇爾 (英國) 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; 會議 Julie Goldsticker, who was a blessing for me as she helped me with a lot as a teenager, and just having Coach Abdullah, 教練 阿爾·米切爾, 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, 科羅馬, 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 克里斯蒂·馬丁, 萊拉·阿里 and a few others.

 

 

 

“There is great change going on right now — 我, 邁卡拉邁耶, Franchon Crews, 凱蒂·泰勒, 阿曼達·塞拉諾 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, in and out of boxing.

 

 

 

“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,” 說 克里斯tofflemire, 美國拳擊校友會執行董事. “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 歲月, 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.”

 

 

 

希爾茲, 可惜, 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, 加利福尼亞州, 針對 Fenmke Hermans (9-1).

 

 

 

“可悲的是,” 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 比利 (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 上午, 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.
