POUR DIFFUSION IMMÉDIATE
Vérone, New York (Octobre. 21 2017) -Two-Time undefeated world champion Demetrius Andrade made a successful debut as a middleweight by winning a dominant 12-round unanimous decision over previously undefeated Alantez Fox at The Turning Stone Resort Casino.
The bout was the co-feature bout of an HBO Boxing After Dark® tripleheader
Au premier tour, Andrade rocked Fox with a blistering straight left hand. Fox was wobbled badly, and Andrade jumped on Fox. After landing several hard follow up shots, Fox was able to hold on and get out of the first frame. Andrade was dominant as he continued to land swift combinations at will. That opening flurry caused Fox to engage very sporadically during the fight
Au deuxième tour de sept, Fox was awarded a dubious knockdown when Andrade slipped on the wet canvas. Television replays showed that Fox did not even land a punch during that exchange.
That was the only blemish for Andrade, as he controlled the action by using his superior skills on both the inside and landing crisp and sharp punches on the outside and he cruised home to the victory. Compubox punch stats showed the dominance of Andrade as he outlanded Fox 158-52 over the 12-round bout with Andrade winning the power shots by a 132-29 marge.
Those stats were evident in the scoring as Andrade of Providence, Rhode Island won by scores of 118-110, 118-109, et 116-111 to push his perfect mark to 25-0.
Fox loses for the first time, and the native of Forestville, Maryland is now 23-1-1.
ANDRADE QUOTES
I did what I had to do in there. I think I did very well, but I will look at the fight and then give myself a grade after that,” Saïd Andrade.
I did everything I needed to do. It was a great experience to go 12 rounds at this weight. Fox is a tough kid, and after I hurt him early in the first round, he recovered well. He wasn’t sloppy and he knew how to survive, so that is why I did not finish him.
I took my time and I needed the 12 tours. I knew I could hurt him and had the pop to do it.
I will go back and work on putting a little more pop on my punches and I feel that I can do a lot of damage.
He was a big test. Nobody would step up and face him, and I did. This is why I am the best, because I am willing to face anybody. Fox is a good fighter and he will do damage down the line, but like I told everybody before the fight, Look out It’s me again!.”
En non-télévisé l'action, Villa Ruben remained perfect by winning a six-round unanimous decision over German Meraz in a featherweight bout.
Villa controlled the action against the 100 fight veteran Meraz. Villa won by shutout margins on all cards by the scores of 60-54 which made Villa of Salinas, California raise his mark to 9-0. Meraz of Agua, Prieta, Le Mexique est 54-45-1.
The card opened up with Michael Néerlandais Plus beating down and eventually stopping Anthony De Jesus Ruiz in round four of their six-round lightweight bout.
Dutchover landed heavy blows throughout the contest and had Ruiz in trouble several times before the bout was stopped at 2:42 de la quatrième ronde.
Dutchover of Santa Fe Springs, California via Midland, Texas est maintenant 7-0 avec cinq coups de grâce. Ruiz of San Luis Potosi, Mexico is now 2-4.
The AndradeFox bout was promoted by Banner Promotions, Joe DeGuardia’s Star Boxing and A-Team Promotions, in association with DiBella Entertainment.

I know that Sulecki is a good undefeated fighter, but I’ve prepared for everything he can bring to the ring. The winner of this I feel will definitely be in line for a title shot.
I am very confident after fighting Demetrius Andrade. I’ve always known I could compete with the best and that fight proved it. Now I just need to make the adjustments to look even better this time.
I fight for Germany and Ecuador and I can’t wait to get in the ring and fight with pride until the final bell.
This was the best training camp that I ever had. I’m just hitting my prime now and I will show off all of my skills.

Les perspectives annoncées Ruben Villa et Michael Dutchover apparaîtront sur une sous-carte non télévisée ce samedi soir au Turning Stone Resort Casino

PHILADELPHIA, PENN./ORANGE, Californie. (Octobre. 19, 2017) – Heralded prospects, poids plume Villa Ruben (8-0, 4KOs) and junior lightweight Michael Néerlandais Plus (6-0, 4 KOs) will return to action ce samedi night on the non-televised portion of an HBO Boxing After Dark® card at the Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York.
Villa de Salinas, Californie prendra 103 fight veteran German Meraz in a featherweight bout, while Dutchover of Santa Fe Springs, California via Midland, Texas will fight Anthony De Jesus Ruiz in a junior lightweight contest.
Villa and Dutchover are co-promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing.
Both are training in Santa Fe Springs, California and are ready for their 2nd appearances on the East Coast.
Each fighter chimed in with thoughts on their respective battles.
Everything has gone good in training camp. I just fought four weeks ago, but I stay ready and that is the case now. I am ready for Saturday night,” dit Villa.
Meraz is by far the most veteran opponent that Villa has faced. He has been in the ring with 25 undefeated opponents and 9 champions du monde.
I just need to be patient against him. He has over 100 fights and knows his way around the ring. If a knockout presents itself then I have to take it, but I want to display my skills.
Being on a big card has the 20 year-old Villa excited, and he is looking to endear himself to the New York fight crowd.
I am excited to be fighting on a bigger show. It motivates me to do better and get on the broadcast someday soon. It is very exciting to be on these types of events.
This will be the ninth bout for Villa in just fifteen months he is very happy about the progress of his career.
When I signed the plan was to be active, and that has been the case. I would like to get one more fight in this year. But I first I am very excited to put on a great performance Samedi nuit.”
Dutchover has moved his camp from Texas to California, and the results have been very good as he heads into his bout Samedi.

“Tout se passe très bien. I just fought last month, and I felt good. I am ready to go back to the east coast, and put on a great show.
Like Villa, Dutchover was very impressive in his east coast debut on April 14th, and he is looking to cement himself as one of the top prospects in the junior lightweight division.
This is nothing new. I have fought on big shows before in the amateurs. The ring is my home. As long as I am in the ring, I will do my thing and put on an impressive performance.
Even though Dutchover has very little to go on when it comes to scouting Ruiz, Dutchover is already a young veteran and is leaving no stone unturned.
I do not know much about him, but I am prepared for anything he will bring, and then I will adjust. I have had many different sparring partners with diverse styles, so that gets me ready for any opponent.
I planned for this, and I train hard. I am always ready when I get the call for a fight. I am glad that I have been busy, and I have been improving with each fight, and next year should be a good year in my career. I have a mentality that if I train hard, the fight is easy. Quand je monte sur le ring, I just like to have fun.

Connecticut Boxe Hall of Fame de classe 2017 Casquettes d'induction Juger la carrière de Clark Sammartino

Octobre. 28 au Mohegan Sun

Clark Sammartino

UNCASVILLE, Conn. (Octobre 19, 2017, 2017) – Son intronisation au Temple de la renommée de la boxe du Connecticut (CBHOF) Samedi nuit, Octobre 28, dans le cadre de la classe de six membres 2017, mettra fin à la carrière de boxeur du juge sortant Clark Sammartino à 13TH Dîner annuel CBHOF Gala d'intronisation dans la salle de bal Uncas au Mohegan Sun.
Les autres nouveaux intronisés au CBHOF sont des boxeurs pionniers “Professeur” Charles Hadley, médecin de l'anneau Dr. Tony Alessi, arbitre / juge Dick Flaherty, écrivain de boxe Et Parker et contributeur boxeur / boxe Hugh Devlin, Sr.
Diplômé de l'Université Brown, Sammartino, maintenant âgé de 80 ans, a connu deux autres carrières en tant que chirurgien buccal et conseiller en investissement chez Blue Fin à Providence, en plus de son rôle de juge de boxe international depuis 1985.
“J'ai commencé la boxe parce que Joey Angelo épousé ma cousine,” Sammartino a expliqué. “Il a riposté au début des années quarante. Joey a combattu Willie Pep deux fois et Sandy Saddler. C'est ce qui m'a fait démarrer. Nous avions l'habitude d'avoir le grand Lundi Night Fights à l'Auditorium de Rhode Island et je me souviens avoir regardé Rocky Marciano se battre “Tigre” Ted Lowry là-bas.”
Parce qu'il était un chirurgien buccal réussi, Clark pourrait prendre de longs week-ends pour juger des combats dans le monde entier. Son premier combat pour le titre mondial et le plus mémorable fut Vinny Paz-Greg Haughn I. A travers sa longue carrière, Sammartino a jugé plus de 400 combats professionnels, y compris 50 combats majeurs pour le titre mondial.
La liste des boxeurs dont Sammartino a jugé les combats se lit comme un Who's Who de la boxe dans le passé 32 ans: Mike Tyson, Oscar de la Hoya, Evander Holyfield, Julio Cesar Chavez, Johnny Tapia, Naseem Hamed, Chris Eubank, Marco Antonio Barrera, Mark Johnson, Wayne McCullough, Wladimir Klitschko, Gennady Golovkine, Anthony Joshua, Sergey Kovalev, Bernard Hopkins, Juan Manuel Lopez, Nonito Donaire, Acelino Freitas, Ivan Calderon, Felix Trinidad, Tommy Morrison et beaucoup plus.
Sammartino, qui dit fièrement qu'il n'a jamais manqué une journée de travail 40 ans, a décidé de prendre sa retraite, bien qu'il restera un fan de boxe pour le reste de sa vie. “J'ai commencé à ralentir à mon âge, faire des spectacles locaux et peut-être trois ou quatre combats pour le titre mondial par an, principalement WBO et IBF,” Sammartino a fait remarquer. “J'ai eu un combat difficile avec la pneumonie dans le passé 5-6 mois et cela a rendu le travail difficile.”
Son intronisation au CBHOF est une fin appropriée et un immense hommage à Sammartino et à sa carrière dans la boxe. “Je suis honoré d’être intronisé au Temple de la renommée de la boxe du Connecticut,” il dit. “C'est une excellente façon de terminer ma carrière.”
Billets limités pour le CBHOF 13e Dîner gala annuel d'intronisation, à un prix raisonnable $90.00, sont toujours disponibles à l'achat en appelant Kim Baker au Mohegan Sun(1.860.862.7377) ou Sherman Cain au Manchester Journal Inquirer (1.800.237.3606 X321).

Un nouveau chapitre de boxe pour l'ancien challenger au titre des poids lourds de l'UFC, Gabriel “Il a attaqué” Gonzague

Octobre 28 à Worcester, MA
WORCESTER, Masse. (Octobre 19, 2017) – The next chapter of former UFC heavyweight title challenger Gabriel “Il a attaqué” Gonzague starts October 28e when he makes his professional boxing debut fighting on theNew England Future 4” carte, the fourth and final 2017 installment of the popular professional boxing series, “L'avenir de la Nouvelle-Angleterre”, to be held at the DCU Center (Salle d'exposition) à Worcester, Massachusetts.
“L'avenir de la Nouvelle-Angleterre 4” est présenté par Rivera Promotions Entertainment (À propos de nous), qui est détenue et exploitée par trois retraités, double champion du monde de division Jose Antonio Rivera et son fils, Antoine (A.J.) Rivera.
The 38-year-old Gonzaga teaches Brazilian Ju-Jitsu (BJJ) in Worcester and lives nearby in Ludlow (MA). An imposing physical fighter, la 6′ 2″, 260-pound Gonzaga (17-11-0, 7 KOs, 9 SUBs, 1 Décembre), détient 4e degree black belt in BJJ. The highlight of his MMA career was at the 2007 UFC 70, held in Manchester, Royaume-Uni, in which he knocked out K-1, Pride and Rizen champion Mirko Cro Cop with a head kick in the opening round, positioning Gonzaga for his unsuccessful challenge of UFC Heavyweight Champion Randy Couture in his next fight.
Gonzague, who retired from MMA 1 Il y a ½ ans, also defeated Ben Rothwell, Shawn Jordan et Chris Tuchscherer, among the more notable UFC fighters he faced in the Octagon.
(L-R) – Rocky Gonzalez & Gabriel Gonzaga
Gonzago has a new opponent for his four-round bout, Tampa’s pro-debuting Alejandro Esquilin Santiago, who also has a pro MMA background.
I like challenges in my life,” Gonzaga explained why he’s making his pro debut. “I set new goals because I like to be competitive in sports. I have a good boxing coach who told me I should try. I was a BJJ (Jiu-Jitsu brésilien) world champion and UFC title contender. I have good boxing skills and plan to put on a good show. I do have one-punch power and hit hard.
I started boxing in 2001 and worked at it every day for two years to learn, but then I was competing in MMA. Maintenant, I’m focused on boxing. I think boxing is the hardest part of MMA. I know you can’t make mistakes in boxing and there’s no time to relax. En MMA, I could relax a little at times in clinches, but the referee won’t allow that in boxing. I’ll probably fight more than once but not too many because of my age and I’m not really at the high-level of boxing like I was in MMA.
Gonzaga’s head boxing trainer, Rocky Gonzalez, has been working with several MMA fighters, including Gonzaga, for more than a decade to help them improve their striking skills. Gonzalez freely admits that Gonzaga knew how to box before he started working with him, crediting Gonzaga’s Muay Thai coach, and that boxing came naturally to the big Brazilian who has made an easy adjustment from the Octagon to the ring. Gonzalez also feels that leg positioning differences for MMA fighters switching to boxing, in terms of throwing proper punches, is somewhat overrated.
“dans la boxe,” Gonzalez dit, “fighters need their hands like their legs and elbows in MMA. Distance and timing is more important than where their legs and feet are positioned. Gabriel doesn’t like sparring with headgear, si, his sparring is more like real fighting. He’s been hot with some real shots but he’s responded well. He’s always going to have a puncher’s chance and he’s deceptive because he doesn’t look as fast as he is.
We didn’t really plan anything but he got this good opportunity. He’s always wanted to turn pro as a boxer and go from there. Gabriel is a good listener who keeps working hard to get better. When he first brought up boxing, he was contracted by the UFC, but we started talking about him boxing after the UFC released him. He knew Jose from him teaching boxing. Gabriel isn’t doing this for the money. He’s a competitive guy who wanted to try boxing.

Voici ce que les combattants avaient à dire mercredi:
MURAT GASSIEV
I’ve been working very hard in Big Bear, California with Abel Sanchez for about 10 weeks preparing for this fight. We are like a family up there. I have my Russian brothers, plus Gennady Golovkin, who is definitely like an older brother to me.
Abel has helped me so much. He hasn’t tried to change my style. He’s just gone in and made my style better. He means so much to me.
My last fight was my first title shot and I felt great in the moment. My nerves were calm and I feel like this is what I was made for. I want to be in this position for a very long time.
I’m very thankful to be a part of this tournament. I’m very happy to be a part of this. This is an opportunity to be a unified world champion and prove that I’m the best in the division.
My opponent has a lot of experience and has been in a lot of tough fights. He’s been in more fights than me, so I just need to be ready. Je suis prêt pour 12 rounds or a short fight. This is what I train for.
I will show everyone what I am all about Samedi nuit. Je ne suis pas un grand causeur, but I will speak loudly with my fists Samedi.”
KRZYSZTOF WLODARCZYK
Training camp went very well and I am physically ready for this challenge. You will see how strong I am mentally when I get in the ring Samedi.
I have to be ready for anything. I know that he worked hard to get in there and hurt me so I’ll have to be ready to fight back against anything he does.
Everyone knows that my experience will help me. I’ve had a lot more pro bouts than Gassiev. But I also will need to display smart boxing. I think I am the more intelligent fighter and will show it Samedi.
My first goal is to win and become IBF world champion. That would put me in a special place in the history of Polish boxing as a three-time world champion. Winning this tournament would be very prestigious and lucrative for me.
It’s always great to have the support of the great Polish fans. They really support all of their guys from Poland. But I have lots of experience fighting on the road with no Polish fans so it will just be a nice bonus.
It’s going to be a clash of styles, I don’t know exactly what it will look like, but I can guarantee that it’s going to be exciting.
MATEUSZ MASTERNAK
“Je ai eu un bon camp. My sparring was strong and I was very happy with the training in Poland. I finished my camp in London for some new sparring and everything is all set for Samedi.
I have a very good opponent. He’s going to use his boxing skills. We sparred with each other a few years ago and it was good, hard sparring for eight rounds. It could help me Samedi but sparring is different from a real fight.
It’s very important for me to fight in the U.S. and to perform well. I haven’t fought in the U.S. in seven years so I’m excited to be back. I’m motivated to do well and keep getting big fights.
I’m fully concentrated on this opponent. I have to get in there and take care of my strategy. I don’t know exactly how the fight is going to go, but I will be ready and have a plan for everything.
STIVENS BUJAJ
I feel perfect physically. I’m ready to rumble Samedi nuit. We’ve done all the conditioning, sparring and dieting to be in the right position on fight night. I did what I had to do.
I’ve been training here in New York, mostly in the Bronx but also moving around and finding the best possible sparring to prepare for Samedi.
He’s a tough opponent and I can’t underestimate him. I’ve trained to win. I’m going to come out on top one way or another.
I’ve sparred with Masternak before, so I know what I’m dealing with. I’m going to go in there and pick him apart. He’s an aggressive fighter who will come forward and throw power punches, but I’m ready for that.
I’m so happy with where my body is at heading into this fight. This is the best I’ve felt in a long time. The shoulder injuries are behind me and I’m healthy now.
I can’t really say what the fight will look like but I hope everybody comes out Samedi to see the show. I feel comfortable fighting in the New York/New Jersey area and I can’t wait to go get this win.
MACIEJ SULECKI
Everything was perfect in training camp and I feel very strong. I worked well with my coach and we were on the same page all of camp. I worked very hard and I’m ready to show-off on this big card.
I know that Culcay was a great amateur champion and an interim champion in the pros, so he’s obviously a very good fighter. But I will win this fight because I’m better and stronger more determined to get the win.
I saw Culcay fight Demetrius Andrade. Ce était un bon combat, but I don’t think Andrade performed well. Culcay lost but he made it very competitive so I know that he will be a challenge.
I feel better at super welterweight than I did at middleweight. I always knew I could go down in weight and now was the time. So far I have felt much stronger at this weight.
I am fully focused on fighting Culcay. First I must beat Jack Culcay, but I want to fight all the best fighters in the division. Jermell Charlo, Erislandy Lara and Jarrett Hurd, Je suis prêt pour chacun d'eux.
It’s a lot of extra motivation to fight in front of the Polish fans. They are the best fans in the world and I’m ready to perform.
JACK CULCAY
I feel perfect physically. This was one of my best training camps ever. I trained for about five months in Germany. I had four or five very tough sparring partners to get me prepared for this.
Sulecki is undefeated and that’s the most important thing I know about him. I trained my hardest for this and Samedi you will see the best versus the best.
“Je dois vitesse, I have gained strength and I will show the mix of Ecuadorian and German styles. I was an amateur champion and now I’m going to be a champion in the pros.
I learned against Demetrius Andrade that I can fight with anybody. I can compete with anybody in this sport. I’m going to show my experience Samedi nuit.”
