2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez Dedicated to building boxing in Wichita & across Kansas

Airing live on CBS Sports Network from
Hartman Arena in Kansas
PARK CITY, Kansas (Hunyo 1, 2017) – Wichita-native Nico Hernandez (1-0, 1 KO), isang 2016 Olympic bronze medalist, is on a mission to establish his home as a realfight townlike world champion Terence Crawford has done in Omaha, Nebraska.
The 21-year-old Hernandez returns to action Sabado, Hunyo 17, in the six-round main event against Mexican-born flyweight opponent Jose Rodriguez (2-0, 2 Kos), headlining “KO Night Boxing: Rapid Fire”, which will air (10 p.m. AT / 7 p.m. PT) on CBS Sports Network live from Hartman Arena in Park City, Kansas.
“KO Night Boxing: Rapid Fireis a presentation of KO Night Boxing LLC.
Hernandez drew nearly 3,200 fans for his professional debut, Marso 25, in nearby Mulvane (KS), in which he knocked out Patrick Gutierrez in the fourth round of the main event, which was also televised live on CBS Sports Network.
Hernandez’ tagataguyod, KO Night Boxing, LLC, is committed to showcasing Hernandez at home on national television, as well as provide a platform for young Kansas boxers for them to develop their skills and build intra-state rivalries as evident on this card.
My plan is to do it like Terence Crawford has done in Omaha,” Hernandez explained. “I’m hoping it works out as well for me. It means so much for me to bring boxing to Wichita, to all of Kansas, for these fans and all the good, young boxers we have here.
This is a good opportunity for fighters from Wichita, across Kanas, to showcase their skills to the boxing world,” tagataguyod John Andersen nabanggit. “Nico is giving all these other fighters a chance to do that by headlining our shows on CBS Sports Network. They need to fight to develop; otherwise, they’d have to travel far from home just to fight. They can build fanbases close to their hometowns.

We’re an up-and-coming promotional company, much like Nico as a pro fighter, and together we want to build boxing across Kansas and build natural rivalries like we have on this card. Nico is the perfect fighter to do this because, in addition to being an Olympic medalist, he’s a great role model for young people in Wichita, and Kansas as a whole, to emulate. We’ve planted the boxing seed in Wichita, through Nico, and we feel that boxing is going to grow across the state where Nico is bigger than life.

Split-T Management signs National Golden Gloves champion Poindexter Knight, JR. to a managerial contract

New York (Hunyo 1, 2017) -Split-T Management is pleased to announce the signing of the 2017 Pambansang Golden guwantes kampeon, Poindexter Knight, JR. to a managerial contract.

Knight of North Philadelphia won the National Golden Gloves while competing in the middleweight division, but will campaign as a professional as a welterweight.

The 21year-old compiled an amateur record of 45-5 may 15 knockouts, and before winning the National Golden Gloves, was a two-time Pennsylvania State Golden Gloves winner.

Knight was introduced to the sport by his father, Poindexter Sr., who was an amateur boxer and wanted his son to know how to protect himself.

I was getting into a lot fights because I was short for my age and also my name. After getting expelled, my dad took me to the gym and I fell just fell in love with the sport,” said Knight.

Sa 13 years-old he was able to spar with top contender Hank Lundy.

I learned so much from him, “says Knight. “Not only the physical aspect but also the mental part of boxing . Hank’s an old school type fighter where he is not only good skillfully, but he is smart mentally as he tries to get in your head when you’re in there with him. I learned a lot during those sessions and we last worked together as I was preparing for the National Golden Gloves.

I only gave boxing my whole attention in the last year. As you can see the results as I took the Pennsylvania Golden Gloves open division and then I won the Nationals at 165 pounds.”

Despite being a bit on the small end for that weight class, Knight was able to overcome and take the crown.

People said I was not going to win neither because I am really a welterweight and had to enter the Golden Gloves at a higher division because of a technicality. Everyone was saying I would be too small to compete as a middleweight!”

I always had a lot of confidence in myself and love to prove people wrong so when I got to the Nationals, I wanted to prove a point that I could be the best Middleweight in the tournament. I was weighing only 155lbs. and fight guys coming down to 165 and I dominated the competition.

Knight is excited to join a stable that includes Olympians Antonio Vargas, Teofimo Lopez and Charles Conwell.

I’m very happy to have signed with David McWater. When I met him, he talked to me like man. He didn’t try to sell me a dream but instead told me the realities of boxing. The good and the bad of the business.

To top it all off, everyone I knew that knows him had great things to say about him and he showed me I can trust him as well as feel confident he will move my career in the right direction.

Knight compares his style to Terence Crawford and Roy Jones, JR.

I am a strong southpaw with good size. Not only can I box like Terrence, I have lightning speed similar to Roy with power that can end a fight with one punch.

I want to be mentioned as one of the greats to come out of Philadelphia. The Bennie Briscoe’s, the Jeff Chandler’s, the Meldrick Taylor’s and the list can go on and on. I want people to mention me in the same breath!”

Sinabi, Split-T Managements’s David McWater, “I’m very happy to have Poindexter Knight Jr. in the Split-T Family. One of America’s top amateur coaches, Otha Jones, had watched Poindexter sparring shortly before the national gloves and told me point blank the kid would win the whole thing. By mid-week I realized he was also fighting way above his weight class and was giving ten pounds in most fights, those two things really impressed me. He is a wonderful kid and now joins a team with many former National Champions and I expect the same big things from him as we’ve had for our other top prospects.

FOUR-DIVISION WORLD CHAMPION ADRIEN BRONER TAKES ON UNDEFEATED THREE-DIVISION CHAMPION MIKEY GARCIA AT 140 Pounds

 

Adrien Broner vs. Mikey Garcia

Itinanghal ni Premier Boxing Champions

Sabado, Hulyo 29 * Live sa showtime

Watch, Magbahagi, Embed Video: http://s.sho.com/2qKad51

New York (Hunyo 1, 2017) - Ngayon, Showtime Pampalakasan® announced a blockbuster matchup between two of boxing’s biggest stars as three-division world champion Mikey Garcia moves up in weight to 140 pounds to face four-division champion Adrien “The Problem” Broner in the main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®, Sabado, Hulyo 29, nang live sa showtime. Adrien Broner vs. Mikey Garcia is presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

In yet another significant main event matchup on SHOWTIME, these world-class fighters will meet at a critical time in their respective careers. A three-division world champion at the age of 23, and one of the youngest four-division world champions in boxing history, the flamboyant Broner remains one of the most accomplished and popular athletes – and perhaps the most polarizing – in the sport today. Among the top 140-pounders in the world, Broner is undefeated at or below 140 pounds with his only two losses coming against welterweight world champions Marcos Maidana and Shawn Porter. An experienced fighter at just 27 taong gulang, Broner (33-2, 24 Kos) still believes he is the future of the sport and promises to prove it against Garcia on July 29.

 

Mikey Garcia, 29 years old and undefeated (36-0, 30 Kos), is a recently crowned lightweight champion on a self-appointed journey to become a household name in the sport of boxing. Garcia will move up in weight for the second time in just three fights to challenge Broner. Garcia represents a boxing family developing legendary status in the modern era of the sport. He is renowned for his sportsmanship and his commanding presence in the ring, honed by his brother and acclaimed trainer Robert Garcia. Mikey has held world titles at 126, 130 at 135 pounds, but has never fought north of 138.

 

Sabado, Hulyo 29 ang magiging 19ika live boxing event on SHOWTIME this year. The main event bout will be a WBC 12-round special attraction.

 

“SHOWTIME Sports continues to deliver the most anticipated matchups, the most important events and the most thrilling fights in boxing,"Sinabi Stephen Espinoza, Executive Vice President at General Manager, Showtime Pampalakasan. “We consistently feature top-rated champions and challengers. The best are fighting the best and the results have been spectacular. Adrien Broner vs. Mikey Garcia is a fight that fight fans have dreamed of—an undefeated, young star facing one of the best 140-pound fighters in the sport, both men in the prime of their respective careers. Hulyo 29 promises to be a memorable night in a year already full of memorable boxing events.”

 

 

Broner, ng Cincinnati, Ohio, has achieved more in his young career than most fighters can hope for in a lifetime. After earning world titles at 130, 135 at 147 pounds, Broner won a belt in a fourth weight division – 140 pounds – in October 2015 when he defeated Khabib Allakhverdiev via 12ika round stoppage to become the second youngest four-division champion in boxing history at 26 (behind Oscar De La Hoya, 24). Bilang isang baguhan, Broner compiled a record of 300 panalo, 19 losses under the guidance of his trainer Mike Stafford, who has remained in Broner’s corner throughout his entire career. Broner will turn 28 years old on Hulyo 28, the day before his bout with Garcia.

 

Once considered one of the top young pound-for-pound boxers in the world, Mikey Garcia, of Moreno Valley by way of Oxnard, Calif., returned to the ring after a two-and-half-year layoff in July 2016 without missing a beat. He scored a dominant fifth-round stoppage over former world champion Elio Rojas in his first fight back. Pagkatapos, Garcia became a three-division champion by beating previously undefeated lightweight world champion Dejan Zlaticanin with a vicious third-round knockout last January. Garcia has stopped 19 ng kanyang huling 21 opponents including Roman “Rocky” Martinez, Juan Manuel Lopez, Orlando Salido and Bernabe Concepcion.

I am excited to be able to have our first world championship boxing match on our ‘New England’s 3’ boxing event,” promoter Jose Rivera commented. “It’s special because it’s a women’s World Heavyweight title fight with veterans like Sonya and Laura, who also have some hostilities towards one another.

This is still a make-dominates sport. I tell young girls to box as a side job. I have two Master’s Degrees and I’m a full-time teacher in New York. Boxing is my hobby. Very few women can make enough money boxing to make a good living. I don’t know if it’s because I was born in Greece and boxing is in my blood, but I love this sport and that’s what keeps me going. I guess I was born to fight. I enjoy getting in the ring. I’ve gotten a lot from boxing and now I’m giving back to amateurs in New York City as president of a youth organization.

Her opponent, Ramsey (10-7, Kos), as a two-time world title challenger is hoping the third time is the charm for her. They have history together and this fight nearly happened a few years ago.
I beat her daughter (Alysia Williams-Stevenson) in my second pro fight,” Lamonakis explained. “She said she’s see me and now, seven years later, we’re fighting. She’s a little older than me and I needed more fights before I fought her. We were supposed to fight a few years ago in Aruba but a hurricane cancelled the show.

DREAM MATCHES, BELLATOR VETERANS & TITLE FIGHTS TOP NEF 29 Lumaban CARD

Lewiston, Maine (Hunyo 1, 2017) - New England Fights (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Hunyo 17 with a fight card featuring both mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Mas maaga sa araw na ito, ang pag-promote inihayag ang buong paglaban card para sa kaganapan. The fight card is subject to approval of the Combat Sports Authority of Maine (CSAM). The boxing portion of the card will begin at 7 pm EDT with the MMA card to immediately follow.

 

In a highly-anticipatedSuperfight,” Maine MMA star Bruce “Kahanga-Boy” Boyington (14-9 MMA, 1-0 boksing) will take on Maine’s premier boxer Russell “The Haitian SensationLamour, JR. (15-2, 7 Kos) in a six-round boxing bout. The fight will be a dream match for fans who never expected to see each sportstop in-state athletes face one another. Boyington and Lamour have both been featured in nationally-televised bouts on NBC and ESPN in recent years. Lamour is the former New England Middleweight Champion, while Boyington held the NEF MMA Lightweight Title until relinquishing it last year to sign with the World Series of Fighting (WSOF) global promotion.

 

Bruce and Russell are at the top of their respective games,” noted NEF co-owner and matchmaker Matt Peterson. “Russell is a great boxer, and he’s going to face a superb striker in the form of Taekwondo black belt Bruce Boyington. This is a true dream match for Maine fight fans.

 

The professional MMA portion of the fight card will feature the long-awaited return of former NEF MMA Featherweight Champion Sinag “Lahat ng Negosyo” Kahoy (8-3) as he faces Brazilian prospect Alexandre “Malaking bariles” Bezerra (19-5). Wood left Maine more than two years ago to re-settle in South Carolina and then Texas. Both Wood and Bezerra are veterans of the Bellator cage with a dozen fights between them for the national promotion.

 

When you consider both sides, this is probably the highest-level fight to ever take place in NEF,” sabi ng NEF co-owner at promoter na si Nick DiSalvo. “This fight could easily be slid into any UFC card on FS1 or Fox and steal the show. Either one of these athletes could get the call up after this fight. Our fans are about to see something special.

 

The amateur MMA card will be headlined by a title fight with Rafael “Deez NutsVelado (4-0) defending the amateur lightweight championship against Maine Amateur Wrestling Alliance Hall of Famer Pat Kelly(3-0). At age 52, Kelly will be the oldest fighter to ever challenge for an NEF title.

 

In addition to the fights, legendary boxer James “Buster” Douglas (38-6-1, 25 Kos) will make an appearance atNEF 29as the guest of honor. Douglas will hold an hour-long meet-and-greet with fans at the Colisee from 6 pm hanggang 7 pm prior to the opening bell. Longtime fans will remember Douglas as the architect of the greatest upset in professional sports history with his knockout of “Iron” Mike Tyson (50-6, 44 Kos) sa 1990 to claim the world heavyweight title. Douglas halted the 37-fight undefeated streak that opened Tyson’s pro career.
