Valdez önce yerel Boys'a gitti’ Kulüp o iken 11. Düşük gelirli bir ailede yedi çocuğun en küçüğü, bekar annesi tarafından yönetiliyor, tüm çocukların bir yatak odasında uyuduğu, yatakta kızlar, yerdeki çocuklar, hamamböcekleriyle alan paylaşmak.

 

 

 

“Kulübe gitmeye başladım ve sanırım iyi yaptım çünkü daha yaşlı ve daha büyük adamları dövmeye başladım.,” Valdez hatırlandı. Bir gün bir koç bana boks yapmayı öğrenmekle ilgilenip ilgilenmediğimi sordu. At 11, ABD Boksçular benimle ilgilendi, boksör ben değilim, ve bana hep rehberlik ettiler. Geçmişim yüzünden, Üniversiteye gitmeyeceğimi biliyordum, ve bu insanlar bana yardım etti ve bana rehberlik etti.

 

 

 

Içinde 1964, 16-Valdez yaşındaki Valdez olimpiyat bronz madalyası Quincey Daniels siklet bölümünde Ulusal AAU Şampiyonasında, ve o yıl daha sonra ABD'ye hak kazandı. Alternatif olarak Olimpiyat Takımı. Valdez, hafif orta sıklet sınıfında 1967 Ulusal Altın Eldiven'de altın madalya kazandı ve prestijli Pan-Amerikan Oyunlarından bir bronz madalya ekledi..

 

 

 

“Daha iyi bir boksör olmak istedim ve bu (Daniels'ı yenmek) ayrıca daha iyi bir insan olmama yardım etti. O zamana kadar Teksas'ın dışına hiç seyahat etmemiştim. Bölgesel ve Ulusal Yarışmalara gittim ve sonra Doğu Afrika'ya gitmek isteyip istemediğim soruldu.. Afrika hakkında tek bildiğim Tarzan'dı, Jane ve Çita. Lisede, Üniversite bursları teklif edildi, ama notlarım kötüydü çünkü okulda olduğundan daha fazla zaman geçirdim. Bir baba figürüm yoktu.”

 

 

 

ABD'de görev yaparken. Hava Kuvvetleri, Valdez'de altın madalya kazandı 1970 Hafif bir orta sıklet olarak ve iki yıl sonra Ulusal AAU Şampiyonası, o oldu 1972 Ulusal Altın Eldiven ağır siklet şampiyonu.

Olimpiyat Boks Takımı, geleceğin dünya şampiyonunu yenerek Eddie Mustafa Muhammad.

 

 

 

“Hayalim 1964'te gerçekleşti” Valdez kaydetti. “ABD Olimpiyat Takımının yedeğiydim 1964 ve yine içinde 1968. Ama içinde 1972, Altın madalya kazanmak istedim, Bronzla bitmiş olmama rağmen.”

 

 

 

Valdez, Münih'teki Olimpiyat savaşları nedeniyle Amerika'da tanınan bir isim oldu, Almanya, canlı yayınlandı ABC Geniş Spor Dünyası, yetmişli yıllarda ödüllü Cumartesi öğleden sonra gösterisi, efsanevi spiker Howard Cosell Valdez'i parlattı. Ne yazık ki, Jessie, yarı finalde altın madalya kazanan kişi tarafından elendi., Emilio Correa, tartışmalı bir karar yoluyla, ve Jesse bronz madalya almaya karar verdi.

 

 

 

The 1972 Olimpiyatlar, ancak, ne yazık ki ölümleri için hatırlanıyor 11 İsrailli sporcular ve antrenörler Filistinli bir terörist grup tarafından rehin alınarak öldürüldü, Kara Eylül.

 

 

 

“Olimpiyat köyü bir daire şeklinde inşa edildi,” Valdez açıkladı. “Dünyanın her yerinden sporcular vardı. Oda arkadaşım ve yemek yedikten sonra bir rutinimiz vardı. Yemeğimizi sindirmek için yürüdük ve o gece yürümeye başladık, Silahlı ve tüfekli gardiyanlar kimsenin yanlarından geçmesine izin vermediğinde. Neden bilmiyorduk ve Almanca konuşmuyorduk. Daha sonra koçlarımıza ne olduğunu sorduk, ve o öğleden sonra insanların vurulduğunu söylediler. Daha sonra, televizyonda ne olduğunu gördük.

 

 

 

“Ben takım kaptanıydım ve her spor dalından tüm kaptanlara sporcuların ne yapmak istediği soruldu, devam et (rekabet) ya da eve git. Devam etmeye karar verdik çünkü, eğer dursaydık, bu onlar (teröristler) aranan. Olimpiyatlar, ölenleri tanıyan bir anma töreni nedeniyle bir gün durduruldu.”

Hava Kuvvetlerinde kalabilirdi ve koç olabilirdi. Yerine, evine dönen Olimpiyat bronz madalyalı oyuncuyu işe almaktan yararlanmak isteyen bir Houston televizyon kanalının teklifini kabul etti.. Valdez muhabir oldu ve kanalın reytingleri hemen yükseldi, ama diğer muhabirler kıskandı ve bu Jesse için bir sorun haline geldi.

Neden bir Olimpiyat bronz madalyası sahibi olarak ününden yararlanıp profesyonel olmaya başlamıyorsunuz??

 

 

 

“Ben ne zaman 14 veya 15 okuldan sonra gittiğim spor salonunda antrenman yapan profesyoneller vardı,” Valdez açıkladı, “Orada gerçekten sevdiğim ve hayran kaldığım bir profesyonel boksör vardı.. O bir dünya şampiyonuydu, kim isimsiz kalacak, ve onun çalışmasını izledim. Ben asla unutmayacağım, bana ödünç alıp alamayacağını sordu $1.00. Bir sentim bile yoktu ve bu gerçekten gözlerimi açtı. İşte benden para isteyen bir dünya şampiyonuydu. Aklımda kaldı. Muhabir olarak işe girdim çünkü gerçekten ihtiyacım vardı (tıbbi) faydalar.

ABD Boks Mezunlar Derneği, Sınıfı 2018 Inductee

KOLARODO BAHARI, Tur. (Eylül 6, 2018) – Living legend Roy Jones, Jr., universally recognized as one of the greatest pound-for-pound boxers of all-time, leads a celebrated quintet of Class of 2018 inductees into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame.

 

 

 

The second annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception, held in conjunction with the 2018 ABD Boks Elit ve Gençler Ulusal Şampiyonası ve Gençler ve Hazırlık Açık, Aralık 2-8, will be held Dec. 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) in Salk Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

 

Jones ek olarak, Sınıf 2018 also includes two U.S. Olympic gold medalists and world (profesyonel) şampiyon, Andre Ward ve Claressa Shields, as well as former USA Boxing National Director of Coaching Emanuel Steward and veteran USA Boxing official Tom Cleary. The latter two will be posthumously inducted.

 

 

 

The charter class inducted last year included Muhammad Ali ve Evander Holyfield, as well as veteran coaches Roosevelt Zımparalar ve Tom Coulter.

 

 

 

I am honored to be selected for induction into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” Jones commented, “especially as a member of this great class with my fellow inductees.

 

 

 

Amateur boxing gave me the chance to learn life skills as well as face every other possible scenario inside of the ring.

 

 

 

Jones, ironik, got into boxing at the age of 11 because of Ali. “I saw Ali vs. (Joe) Frazierand just felt as though Ali and I had the same mental concept on life,” Jones explained.

 

 

 

Jones went on to become one of the best amateur boxers in the world, compiling a reported 121-13 kayıt, including gold medal performances at the 1984 National Junior Olympics and 1986 & 1987 National Golden Gloves Tournaments.

 

 

 

At 1988 Seul'de Olimpiyatlar, Güney Kore, Jones reached the championship final of the light middleweight division against Park Si-Hun, Güney Kore. Jones suffered arguably the worst decision in boxing history, losing 3-2, despite outpunching his opponent, 86 için 32 landed punches, and he was forced to settle for a silver medal. Even his opponent admitted that Jones won their fight, leading the AIBA to later suspend the three judges who selected the hometown fighter as the winner.

 

 

 

How disgraceful was this decision? Jones was selected as the Val Barker Trophy winner as the best boxer of the 1988 Olimpiyatlar ve, due to controversy, the scoring system for Olympic boxing was changed, replacing the 20-point must system with electronic scoring.

 

 

 

I was angered,” Jones admitted, “yet promoted to prove that I was the best fighter there, and in the world, at that time.

 

 

 

Jones made his professional debut May 6, 1989, at home in Pensacola, Florida, in a scheduled eight-round bout, in which RJJ stopped Ricky Randall İkinci turda. His long, glorious journey has produced a remarkable 66-9 (47 KOs) profesyonel kayıt, highlighted by nine major world titles in four different weight classes.

 

 

 

Içinde 2003, Jones defeated John Ruiz by way of a 12-round unanimous decision to become the first former world middleweight champion to become world heavyweight title holder in more than a century.

 

 

 

The possessor of exceptional hand and foot speed, atletizm, movement and reflexes, Jones went undefeated through his first 34 pro kavgalar, 22-3 (14) Dünya başlık kavgalar. Against former, present or future world champions, Jones was 19-9 (8 KOs) and included among his victims were greats such as Bernard Hopkins, James Toney, Mike McCallum,Vinnie Pazienza, Virgil Tepesi, Antonio Tarver ve Felix Trinidad.

 

 

 

Bugün, the 49-year-old Jones, technically speaking, is still an active fighter. He also has two promotional companies and gyms, located in Pensacola and Las Vegas, trains several pro boxers and serves as a color commentator for HBO Boxing. He recently opened gyms in South Africa.

 

 

 

For the past two years, Jones has hosted theFuture Stars of Boxing Tournament” Las Vegas, showcasing some of the best amateur boxers in the world.

 

 

 

Hosting the tournament in Las Vegas gives me the opportunity to give back to amateur boxing,” Jones explained. “It’s a great experience for the boxers and it reminds them that who they may have or still look up to, are watching them as well.

When USA Boxing alumni discuss their favorite fighters,” adı geçen Chris Cugliari, ABD Boks Mezunları Derneği İcra Direktörü, “Roy Jones is near the top of everyone’s list. His spectacular talent, dedication to his craft, and infectious personality make him a no-brainer to headline this year’s Hall of Fame class. He continues to give back to amateur boxing and support the next generation. Roy deserves to be celebrated for all he has accomplished, and we look forward to honoring him in December.

Montell Griffin: “Floyd (Mayweather, Jr.) was no comparison as far as speed. Roy was much faster.

 

Mike McCallum: “(Jones is) the greatest fighter of all time.

The flyweight boxed a total of five times through the 11-day tournament, which included a split decision win over Patrick Clancy (İrlanda), unanimous decision wins over Ibrahim Boukedim (Fransa) and Samandar Kholmurodov (Özbekistan), as well as a split decision win over Bhavesh Kattimani (Hindistan) yarı finalde.

CRADLE OF CHAMPIONS To Premiere Friday, Eylül 21 SHOWTIME üzerinde

Görünüm, Pay, Embed Trailer: https://s.sho.com/2Msfq0X

 

NEW YORK - Ağustos 27, 2018 - SHOWTIME has acquired the television rights to CRADLE OF CHAMPIONS, a documentary film that takes viewers through the New York Golden Gloves tournament, one of the most prestigious amateur boxing tournaments in the country. Written and directed by journalist Bartle Bull, the film will premiere Cuma, Eylül 21 at 8 um. SHOWTIME ET / PT.

 

CRADLE OF CHAMPIONS chronicles three inspiring fighters—James Wilkins, Güzel Rodriguez, and Titus Williams—as they navigate the 10-week tournament and fight their way among 500 boxers from the five boroughs, all vying for the coveted title of Golden Gloves champion. Through the three intertwined yet unique narratives, the film explores the pressures and sacrifices on the arduous journey toward boxing greatness.

 

 

 

Shot in a cinema verité-style with no voice-over narration, the character-driven narrative examines what it means to “fight for your life,” not only for the boxers, but also for their coaches, mentors, teammates and loved ones. CRADLE OF CHAMPIONS includes genuine characters and intimate revelations set against the gritty urban landscape of New York City to create a powerful and layered account of the 2015 turnuva.

USA Boxing Announces Four Boxers to Compete at Summer Youth Olympic Games Buenos Aires 2018

KOLARODO BAHARI, Tur. (Haziran 2, 2018 – USA Boxing announced today the four boxers who were nominated to represent the United States at the Summer Youth Olympic Games Buenos Aires 2018, pending approval by the United States Olympic Committee. The Youth Olympic Games will be held Oct. 6-8, with the boxing competition to take place Oct. 14-18 Arjantin.

 

 

 

Following the 2017 Women’s Youth World Championships and 2018 Gençler Kıta Şampiyonası, two men and two women have been nominated for the prestigious competition. The team will be comprised of Cennet Garcia (El Monte, Kaliforniya.), Otha Jones III (Toledo, Ohio), Roma Martinez (Mütevazı, Teksas) ve Harley Mederos (New York, New York).

 

 

 

We’ve got a great group of young talent representing Team USA at the Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires,” said USA Boxing High Performance Director Matt Johnson on the nominated boxers. “Each one has good international experience, having participated in a junior or youth world championships over the past few years. That experience will be key as they face some of the world’s best up and coming boxers this October.

 

 

 

Garcia has been on the international scene since her impressive World Championships debut in 2015, where she became the Junior World Champion. The bantamweight represented Team USA at the 2017 Youth World Championships in Guwahati, India before clinching her spot to Argentina with her winning performance at the 2018 Youth Continental Championships this May. She is a two-time USA Boxing Youth National Champion, and currently has a record of 53-7.

 

 

 

Garcia described being able to represent the United States at the Youth Olympics asamazing.” “Knowing that only four boxers are nominated, and I was one of them is a very huge accomplishment for me,” she stated.

 

 

 

Being able to represent my country at the Youth Olympics is something I have worked hard for and now that I get the opportunity, I will be sure to work even harder to bring home that gold medal.

 

 

 

Light welterweight Jones III solidified his position on Team USA by winning gold at the 2018 Gençler Kıta Şampiyonası. Jones III will be looking to add his third international medal in 2018 at these Games, after his silver medal performance earlier this year at the Emil Jechev Memorial Tournament in Bulgaria. Jones, who has a record of 267-11, is also the 2017 USA Boxing Youth National Champion, as well as a member of the 2015 Junior World Championships team.

 

 

 

Not only is it an honor to represent Team USA in a huge tournament such as the Youth Olympics, I am pleased to represent my family as well,” stated Jones III.

 

 

 

I grew up in the boxing gym. My family owns a gym, Soul City Gym, and all my brothers and sisters were brought up in the gym to show kids a better way to live than violence and making it this far will help me show that even more.

 

 

 

Martinez was the sole American to qualify from the 2017 Women’s Youth World Championships last November. The featherweight was the 2016 USA Boxing Youth National Champion and 2017 USA Boxing Youth National Championship silver medalist. The Youth Olympic Games will be Martinez’s first international tournament of 2018, where she will be looking for her first international medal.

 

 

 

When I received the notification that I was nominated for the Youth Olympic Games, I felt resurrected,” diyen Martinez. “I have experienced a few devastating life losses in the past six months, and was feeling confused about my future in the sport,” she explained.

 

 

 

“Ancak, when I was contacted about this amazing opportunity, my vision became clear, my mind focused and my heart determined to take this opportunity not only for myself, but for every person who hoped and dreamed for a chance like this. I plan to take on this journey to Argentina with me; my faith, my boxing skills and a quote from my late teammate: ‘a boxers favorite scriptureit is better to give than to receive.

 

 

 

Mederos is the final member of Team USA to be nominated for the Youth Olympic Games. The lightweight won bronze at the 2015 Junior World Championships prior to his transition to the youth division. Mederos is the 2017 Youth National Champion and earned his place to Buenos Aires following his impressive gold medal winning performance at the 2018 Gençler Kıta Şampiyonası.

 

 

 

It feels amazing to be able to go to Argentina and represent my country in what I love to do most and get the chance to showcase my talent in front of everyone,” stated Mederos.

 

 

 

I can guarantee you, the best Harley you’ve ever seen, both physically and mentally, will go out there and do the best that I can do and make everyone proud.

 

 

 

All four boxers will return to Colorado Springs in July to begin training for the Youth Olympics. Garcia, Jones and Mederos will use the 2018 Youth World Championships in Budapest, Hungary in August as a tuneup leading to the event before heading to Argentina in late September.

Keyshawn Davis is Pushing His Way to the Top Norfolk, Irade. native is 2020 Olympic hopeful for Team USA

 

KOLARODO BAHARI, Tur. (Haziran 8, 2018) Overcoming adversity is something many people deal with throughout their lives, and it makes that person who they are. For Keyshawn Davis, he has been overcoming adversity from the beginning, and he is now on his way to the top of the boxing world.

 

 

 

Davis began boxing when he was just nine-years-old, after his mother took him and two of his brothers to the gym. They were constantly fighting each other and fighting in school. After about an hour of watching two kids around his age spar his mother asked if they wanted to sign up. The next day Keyshawn and his two brothers were in the gym training.

 

 

 

O zamandan beri, Davis has won numerous titles and is now on his first elite high-performance squad following his win at the 2017 ABD Boks Milli Şampiyonası. Following that win, he has made Colorado Springs, Tur. a second home, as he spends a great deal of his time training at the United States Olympic Training Center.

 

 

 

Training for his first year at the elite level began with one of the largest multi-nation training camps USA Boxing has ever hosted. Davis got the opportunity to spar with not only his American teammates, but boxers from Great Britain, New Zealand and Poland. The preparation led to one of his proudest moments of his young career, his first elite international tournament and title at the Strandja Tournament in Bulgaria.

 

 

 

It was a very different experience, being that it was my first time out of the country,” stated Davis. “I really had to get used to the different environment, especially the time difference, as it threw off my sleep schedule at first.

 

 

 

Ancak, he did not let anything distract him from reaching the top of the podium.

 

 

 

The feeling was just so unreal,” said Davis about his gold medal performance in Bulgaria. “I told myself that this is just one gold and I need to be standing here after every tournament. It was just a great feeling.

 

 

 

Shortly after his winning performance in Bulgaria, Davis was back in the ring representing Team USA on the USA vs. IRL Northeast Boxing Tour. Only fighting in one of the three stops of the tour, Davis made every minute of it count, as he pulled off another impressive victory in front of a large number of American fans.

 

 

 

Ancak, before the success came struggles.

 

 

 

I am a kid from Norfolk, Irade. that started with nothing; Just my mother and her five children,” stated Davis.

 

 

 

As life went on, I kept getting better in the ring, but outside the ring was horrible, from anger problems to getting sent to a mental institution,” continued Davis. “I would’ve never thought I would be in the position I am today, so I thank God that he blessed me with all my supporters; from my sisters, Shanice and Shantel Davis, also my brothers, Keon and Kelvin Davis, and of course my mother, Wanda Davis. Without them I wouldn’t be here today. I am a walking miracle and I just want to show the world what Keyshawn Davis really can do.

 

 

 

Helping Keyshawn get past his struggles has been his coach who has been there from the beginning, Kay Korma, hem de 2016 Olympic silver medalist Shakur Stevenson.

Last year when I was put in the mental home, they were both right there pushing me to get back on track,” Davis stated. “They never gave up on me or doubted me. They always knew what I was capable of, even though I was in a bad place.

 

 

 

Another source of motivation and help came from another teammate, Troy Işleyin, who has been there by his side getting to experience Keyshawn’s first year as an elite with him.

 

 

 

Troy has been a huge help for me during my first year on the elite high-performance squad,” mentioned Davis. “He has been telling me what foods I might need on a trip to help me maintain weight.

 

 

 

When Davis went to Bulgaria for his first international tournament, Troy was there representing Team USA with him. “He told me how he felt his first time fighting internationally, and I just took all his information and used it to my advantage.

 

 

 

Now the goal is to continue training and being successful at the international level. He has hopes of becoming an Olympic Champion in 2020 and being able to give back to his family.

 

 

 

My biggest motivation is just to give my family a better life.

 

 

 

With one gold under his belt, Davis will look for his second international title at the 2018 Chemistry Cup later this month. You can continue to follow his journey to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics through social media via Instagram (@keyshawndavis1) or SnapChat (@key4999).
