Залишити коментар
Філадельфія – After ten years of celebrating the biggest and best achievements of the Philadelphia-area boxing scene, the Briscoe Awards will change the timing of their annual event, from October to March.
“For a few years now, I’ve considered moving the awards up to the first part of the year,” said John DiSanto, founder of the Briscoe Awards. “The original Fall time slot caused a lot of confusion, because by the time we gave out the awards, the fights were old news. Moving to March will allow us to give out the awards shortly after the fight year ends. I’m a little nervous about making a change, but in the long run, the move will only make the Briscoe Awards better.”
The Briscoe Awards honor the key fights and fighters of the Philly area every year. A total of eleven awards will be give out ЦЕ SUNDAY MARCH 25TH AT 1 PM ET, which includes prizes for the “Philly Бій року”, the “Philly Бій року”, the “Нокаут року”, “Amateur of the Year”, “Новачком Року”, “Проспект Рік”, “Performance of the Year”, “Photo of the Year”, і більше.
The fighters being honored this year include Tyrone Brunson, Ярон Енніс, Керміт Цинтрон, Dylan Price, Ейвері Воробей, Marcel Rivers, Реймонд Форд, Джером Conquest, and others.
Advance tickets for the Березня 25, 2018 Briscoe Awards cost $20 and are currently available for sale at BriscoeAwards.com, або по телефону 609-377-6413. Tickets will not be sold at the door. The $20 admission includes food, draft beer, wine, soft drinks, and a souvenir program and ticket.

He has proven time and time again that he is an elite fighter and I’m glad he decided to have Split-T Management guide his professional career to the top of the welterweight division,” said Split-T Management CEO David McWater.

 

 

 

 

“I first met (CEO of Split-T Management) David McWater at the 2016 Національні Золоті Рукавички, which I won. I wasn’t ready to turn professional, but we talked. I told him when I do turn professional, you will be the first I talk to,” said Ceballo. “Після того, we kept in touch and after I won the US Nationals Championships in 2017, I reached out to him and said that I wanted to turn professional. I would talk to other managers, some who appeared to offer me better deals, but I decided to sign with him because I had a great relationship with him, and I liked him as a person. I felt that he would do the best for my career.”

 

 

 

 

Ceballo sees himself as a player in the competitive 147-pound division.

2001 Fight of the Year Reunion for final stop of 2018 США проти. Ireland Northeast Tour

Залишити коментар
Emanuel Augustus joins special guests Micky Ward & Steve Smoger to complete memorable fight
Березня 21 в Манчестері, Нью-Гемпшир
Колорадо-Спрінгс, Коло. (Березня 19, 2018) – Retired pro boxer Emanuel Augustus has confirmed his attendance this week at a USA Boxing-hosted reunion of the 2001 Бій року, associated with the final stop on the 2018 США проти. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour festivities in Manchester, Нью-Гемпшир.
The 2001 Fight of the Year was held July 13, 2001, at Hampton Beach Casino in Hampton, NH., and it is still considered one of the greatest matches ever broadcast on ESPN. “Ірландський” Міккі Уорд won an incredibly entertaining, back-and-forth junior welterweight match-up with “boxing cult” hero Emanuel Augustus, by way of a 10-round unanimous decision that was much closer than the judges’ scoring indicated (98-90, 96-91, 96-94).
“Ward versus Augustus was truly the event of the year in boxing and we’re so happy it was held right here in New Hampshire,” said Stephen, who has been in his position as chairman since 1974, “Micky was losing the fight until the later rounds. As the chairperson of he commission, I checked the judges’ scorecards after six or seven rounds and Micky was losing. Потім, Micky caught Augustus, dropped and really hurt him. He went on to win a great fight.”
The high-profile win positioned Ward for what turned out to be his epic Gatti trilogy, while Augustus went on to become one of the most dangerous, upset-minded opponents in boxing. Підопічний, Augustus and the third man in the ring that night, Hall of Fame referee Steve Smoger, will host as USA Alumni Association event Tuesday, Море. 20 at The Shaskeen Pub & Restaurant (909 Elm St. в Манчестері), починаючи з 6 p.m. І.
The trio will also be joined by two others closely associated with the 2001 Бій року, Chairman of the New Hampshire Boxing and Wrestling Commission, Bobby Stephen, as well as International matchmaker, Eric Bottjer, who made the Ward-Augustus fight in 2001.
All five will also attend the USA Boxing Alumni Association event as well as the following night’s (Море. 21) США проти. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour finale at the Manchester Downtown Hotel in Manchester, Нью-Гемпшир.
SPECIAL MANCHESTER AMATEUR BOXING MATCH ADDED
A special lightweight novice WILL open the competition, showcasing two Manchester amateur boxers, Abhisek Thapa (Title Boxing Club) і Michael Correa (Manchester PAL).
Presented by Corona Premium, the Manchester event will start at 7 p.m. СТАНДАРТНЕ СХІДНЕ ЧАС, and it also serves as a fundraiser for another partner of the show, the Manchester PAL Boxing Club.
Квитки за розумними цінами в $20.00 для загального прийому, $30 for reserved ringside seats, and available to purchase on Seacoast Ticket Agency’s website, www.seacoastticket.com, the official ticket distributor for the event.
“We’re so happy to have the USA-Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour here in Manchester,” Stephen added. “The talent on both squads is extraordinary. We’re honored to have these two teams here for this big event. It’s a credit to USA Boxing and (special events director) Al Valenti, who has done so much over the years for boxing in New Hampshire. Boxing was very popular here many years ago. People turned out in droves to attend the Golden Gloves. There’s a boxing resurgence and that’s so important to teach young people discipline, respect and conditioning that’s so needed today. These amateurs do their best for the love of boxing; they aren’t in it for money like professionals.
“Micky is honorable, a real nice person. It means a lot for local fans and boxers to meet him. We were fortunate to have him fight in New Hampshire on serval occasions and nobody who watched his fight Augustus or his trilogy with Артуро Гатті will never forget.”.

Stephon Молода: ‘Team Gaballo Not Thinking Enough About What’s Going to Happen to Him’

Залишити коментар
Вулиця. Louis Bantamweight Young to Face Reymart Gaballo for WBA Interim World Championship on П'ятниця, Березня 23, at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Казино, Голлівуд, Флорида
Perennial 118-lb contender Stephon “Showstopper” Young is finishing up his 13-week training camp in Miami while wondering if his opponent knows what he’s truly in for next week.
На П'ятниця, Березня 23, in the Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Штат Флорида., WBA #4-rated Young (17-0-3, 7 КО) from St. Louis will face WBA #5 Reymart “GenSan Assassin” Gaballo (18-0, 16 КО) from General Santos City, Філіппіни, in a 12-round battle for the WBA Interim World Bantamweight Championship.
Young vs. Gaballo headlines promoter Kris Lawrence and The Heavyweight Factory’s “Rumble at the Rock,” an 11-bout night of world-class professional boxing. In the 10-round co-main, former WBA Super World Bantamweight Champion Juan Carlos Payano (19-1, 9 КО) бере на себе “Magic” Mike Plania (14-0, 7 КО) from General Santos City, Філіппіни.
Квитки за ціною $255, $130, $80 і $55. All seats are reserved and available at all Ticketmaster outlets, на сайті www.myhrl.com, www.ticketmaster.com or charge by phone: 1-800-745-3000. Additional fees may apply.
29-year-old southpaw Young says that while Gaballo obviously has some strength to have such a high KO percentage, he is too green to be in the ring with a fighter at his level and experience.
“Якщо чесно, Я нічого не приймати від нього, but they should have stepped him up with a different opponent first and not thrown him in with a guy like me,” сказав Янг. “I feel he’s not ready yet and that will show в наступну п'ятницю. He should have had two or three more fights, but I feel like just because it’s for a title, they are rushing toward it. It’s a good opportunity for him, but they’re not thinking enough about what’s going to happen to him. I will be bringing everything I’ve got that night.”
Молодий, who still lives in St. Louis but travels to Miami for camp, says coming up the hard way in boxing and then meeting up with his current team will make all the difference в наступну п'ятницю.
“When I turned pro, I didn’t get signed right off the bat with a big-time promoter,” він сказав. “I went and fought in people’s backyards and proved myself. I was given nothing, but I knew my time would come. I stayed focused and continued to train. I’ve been with my coach, Herman Caicedo, now for two years and I’m a totally different fighter. I want to thank my team, my promoter Kris Lawrence and The Heavyweight Factory for giving me this opportunity, my manager Henry Rivalta for always believing in me and my coach Herman Caicedo for getting me in the best shape I’ve ever been.”
For Young, lifting the belt over his head в наступну п'ятницю will be a dream come true.
“Перемога в цій боротьбі всі засоби. It’s a big accomplishment and nothing can keep me from my dreams. На Березня 23, I will be champion.”
“Rumble at the Rock” is proudly sponsored by Armero Tequila. Special guests expected that evening include former heavyweight champions Riddick “Big Daddy” Bowe and Evander “The Real Deal” Холіфілд. На бій вночі, Hard Rock Event Center will open its doors at 6 p.m. з перший бій, починаючи з 7 p.m. Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Казино знаходиться в 1 Seminole Way в Голлівуді, Флорида.
