Esho Comes from Behind to Stop Abbruzzese In Three Exciting Rounds

Warrior’s Boxing’s revivedWindy City Fight Nightcontinued its growth ביום שבת night in Chicago, as the largest crowd yet watched a seven-bout card at the UIC Pavilion in Chicago.
In the thrilling main event, Chicago junior middleweight Achour Esho (13-0, 8 קוס) had to survive a nearly disastrous first round to stop crosstown rival Anthony Abbruzzese (4-6, 3 קוס) in three.
Abbruzzese came out blazing in the first, culminating in a sustained barrage of punches that could have easily led to a stoppage. To Esho’s credit, he survived and walked wearily to his stool.
The fight changed, עם זאת, בסיבוב שני, as a miraculously revived Esho bit down on his mouthpiece and started throwing hard shots. One of them dropped a surprised Abbruzzese, who arose on shaky legs, only to be dropped again before round’s end.
Smelling blood, Esho pounced on Abbruzzese in round three, dropping him again with a left hook and for the final time with a right uppercut. The time was :58.
Esho, now the newly formed ABO Junior Middleweight Champion, took the opportunity of his post-fight interview to call out MMA star Connor McGregor.
Two more Warriors Boxing prospects were in action that night, as undefeated Josh Hernandez (5-0, 4 קוס) of Chicago figured out the puzzle that is Thomas Smith (3-3-1, 2 קוס) of Dallas over six calculating featherweight rounds. Finding it difficult to trap the elusive Smith, Hernandez still did enough to win a clear unanimous decision by scores of 60-54 פעמיים ו 59-55.
And in another scorching slugfest, Chicago lightweight Jessica McCaskill (3-1, 2 קוס) pounded out an exciting unanimous decision over battle-hardened Puerto Rican Carla Torres (5-4), now fighting out of Cleveland. McCaskill’s advantages in size, strength and power eventually took over the back-and-forth battle. בסופו של הדבר, the scores were 39-37 by all three judges.
In a very impressiveWindy City Fight Night” הבכורה, Chicago bantamweight Shawn Simpson remained undefeated by clearly outclassing Mexico’s Leonardo Reyes (5-12, 2 קוס) over four rounds. הציונים היו 40-36 פעמיים ו 40-35. ברמה זו, Simpson appears to be one to keep an eye on.

NEW YORK (יאן. 24, 2017) – SHOWTIME will televise the eagerly anticipated rematch between WBA Lightweight World Champion חורחה לינארס and former champ אנתוני Crolla ב יום שבת, מרץ 25 לחיות ב ההצגה מתחילה מ מנצ'סטר זירה במנצ'סטר, אנגליה.

 

Linares (41-3, 27 קוס) dethroned Crolla (31-5-3, 13 קוס) in a thrilling battle last שבע. 24 במנצ'סטר. It was the first time the three-division titlist Linares was pushed the 12-round distance in his career.

 

Linares-Crolla will be the second lightweight world title bout on SHOWTIME in 2017 and an important fight toward potentially unifying the resurgent 135-pound division. Dejan Zlaticanin will defend his WBC Lightweight World Championship against undefeated two-division world champ Mikey Garcia this יום שבת, יאן. 28 in the co-feature of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®.

 

Linares, of Barinas, ונצואלה, ניצח 10 קרבות ברציפות, including seven by knockout. He became a three-division titlist when he captured the vacant WBC Lightweight World Championship in 2014 with a knockout of Javier Prieto. The 31-year-old defended the belt twice in 2015 with knockouts of Kevin Mitchell and Ivan Cano before being named “Champion in Recess” by the WBC because of inactivity due to injuries. Linares returned following an 11-month layoff to face Crolla in his hometown of Manchester, outpointing the champion 115-114, 117-111 ו 115-113 in a back-and-forth and bloody battle. עם הניצחון, Linares also earned the WBC Diamond and Ring Magazine lightweight belts.

 

Crolla, מנצ'סטר, won the WBA Lightweight Title with a fifth-round KO of Darleys Perez in November of 2015 in an immediate rematch of their 12-round draw earlier that year. The 30-year-old knocked out previously unbeaten Ismael Barroso in his first title defense on May 7, 2016 to set up the showdown with Linares. The close loss to Linares was Crolla’s first defeat in his last 11 קרבות.

It is a great pleasure for me to welcome our first Olympic gold medalist, Tony Yoka, to Ringstar,” אמר Richard Schaefer, יוֹשֵׁב רֹאשׁ & מנכ"ל ספורט Ringstar. “Tony’s skills in the ring speak for themselves and combined with his tremendous charisma, he will transcend boxing and become a global superstar and ambassador for our sport in short order.

My first fight will take place in mid-May in France after a three month training camp with Virgil.

Yoka came to the 2016 Olympic Games intent on winning gold and defeated fighters from Croatia, Jordan and the U.S. Virgin Islands on his way to the gold medal match.
Yoka first made a splash by winning the French Junior National Championship in 2008 ו 2009 before claiming a silver medal at the 2010 Youth World Championships. He continued his rise to prominence by winning French National Championships in 2012 ו 2014 while also defeating current heavyweight world champion Joseph Parker at the 2010 Youth Olympic games.
I am thrilled to be able to work with Tony Yoka,” said world renowned boxing trainer Virgil Hunter. “He truly is a rare talent who has tremendous potential and with only 24 שנים של גיל, he has the opportunity to become the future of our sport. The fact that he is moving his training camp from France to California shows how committed he is to boxing and I am committed to helping him fulfill his dream of winning the Heavyweight World Championship.
Added Jerome Abiteboul, President and CEO of French fashion brand Ünkut and CEO of Ringstar France, “I am very pleased to be part of the next chapter of Tony Yoka’s career and help guide him together with Richard and our team from Olympic gold in Rio to the Heavyweight Championship. After evaluating many proposals, we decided to sign with Ringstar because Richard’s track record in business and in boxing is unmatched and we fully share the same philosophy of empowering athletes and entertainers.

Brant Stops Hloros with Body Shot and Defends WBA-NABA Championship in Hinckley

ביום שישי, ינואר 20, in front of a standing-room-only crowd of 3000+ at the Grand Casino’s Events & Convention Center in Hinckley, מינסוטה, WBA #3-, IBF #13- and WBO #5-rated middleweight contender Rob “כל הכבוד” Brant stayed busy and defended his WBA-NABA Middleweight Championship by stopping Detroit’s Alexis Hloros.
With a possible title-shot opportunity on the near horizon, the Saint Paul, Minnesota-based Brant (22-0, 15 קוס) wasted no time in dispatching Hloros at2:33 הסיבוב הראשון. A huge body shot dropped Hloros for a count of nine, but he arose still wincing in pain, and was in no condition to continue.
I was happy with the way the night ended up,” said Brant. “When you get a guy last minute like Alexis Hloros, you have to treat them like they have been training to be the best version of themselves. Overlook them and you can get beat. I feel like I am ready for a bigger name now and am ready to showcase myself at the top level.

Despite the opponent change on short notice, he handled it the way a future champion should. And Skender Halili continued his run as one of the most exciting punchers in boxing with another fan-friendly win. It was a great event in front of a huge crowd of fans. I am proud to have been able to promote it.

ATLANTIC CITY (יאן. 21, 2017) – In a stunningly one-sided affair, Danny “Baby Face Assassin” Roman scored an upset ninth-round TKO over previously unbeaten האדם לופז in a WBA Super Bantamweight Title Eliminator יום שישי באירוע המרכזי של ShoBox: הדור החדש on SHOWTIME from Bally’s Atlantic City Hotel and Casino.

 

Lopez’s trainer, renowned רוני שילדס, decided his boxer shouldn’t take any more punishment and asked the referee to stop the contest after nine completed rounds.

רומי (21-2-1, 8 קוס), who was ranked No. 4 בWBA, זכיתי 14ה in a row in a career-best performance. He out-boxed and out-slugged the No. 3-rated Lopez (16-1-1, 8 קוס), של סן אנטוניו, טקסס, from the outset. Roman seized command in the fourth round with two knockdowns, first with a left hook and then, with a left uppercut.

לופז, who was appearing on ShoBox for a fifth time, tried to fight back, but Roman’s skill and harder pinpoint-punching led to the scheduled 12-round fight being stopped between rounds nine and 10.

Win the victory, Roman is now in position to challenge WBA 122-pound World Champion Nehomar Cermeno.

“The main event was a shocker,"אמר ShoBox אנליסט מומחה סטיב הפרהוד. “We didn’t know much about Danny Roman. And he sure earned that title fight against Nehomar Cermeno. It’s a bittersweet for us, for Lopez. We know him well. He’s fought five times on ShoBox but now doesn’t look like he is going to get that title fight since this is the second opportunity he had and he took a real beating. It’s going to take a while for him to come back.”

 

In the final three rounds, Roman out-landed Lopez 107-27, ו 84-20 במכות כוח. In the final session, Roman landed more punches (43) than Lopez threw. It was a merciless beating followed by a merciful stoppage. Roman landed 54 אחוזים מיריות כוחו, לְהָבִיא 67 אחוזים בסיבוב האחרון.

“Adam Lopez is a great and tough fighter,” said Roman. “He came prepared, but I came out with the victory.

“I started hurting him with uppercuts. I dropped him twice the fourth. I felt I was going to stop him there, אבל הפעמון הציל אותו.

“My plan was to break him down little by little, and I felt that was starting to take effect as he was losing his steam in the third round, but he kept on going.

“I knew he would have one last stand, but I knew I would stop him. Even if they didn’t stop it in the corner, I knew I would get him out of there.

"עַכשָׁיו, I am going to go back to the gym. I have to start working on the basics again and begin to prepare for my title shot. I’m very excited.”

לופז, who left the ring promptly after the stoppage, was not happy with his performance.

“He was the better man הלילה,” he said as he sat with his head down in the locker room. “I kept trying to catch him with uppercuts and I got caught every time. I was trying to get on the inside, but it was hard.

“I thought I was clawing my way back into the fight, but my eye started hurting. It was the first uppercut that knocked me down in the fourth that got me right in the eye. It was hard to keep on going with my eye like that.

“When I got back to the corner after the ninth round, Ronnie told me he had seen enough and he stopped the fight.”

In the co-main event of the evening, בינוני סופר בלתי מנוצח Ronald “Flatline” Ellis took a unanimous eight-round decision in a messy-grappler-type affair overChristopher “Ice Cold” Brooker על ידי עשרות רבות של 79-73 פעמיים ו 77-75.

“Ellis-Brooker was an ugly fight,'' הפרהוד אמר. “Brooker didn’t really have any answers. Ellis won clearly but he didn’t shine, mostly because of his opponent’s style.”

 

אליס (14-0-1, 10 קוס), של לין, מסה., established the tone of the fight with an explosive first round in which he went 27-of-90 overall—both high totals for the fight—to Brooker’s 8-of-45. Ellis won the body shots battle (64 ל 31) and landed sharper combinations during the rare moments the fighters were at distance.

In the final three rounds, Ellis continued applying pressure with accuracy.

“I am back and I want some more,” said Ellis. “That was a good fight. I fought smarter today than in my last ShoBox הופעה. I’m not going to lie, he was tough and came at me very hard, but I maneuvered. אני מאוד שמח עם הביצועים שלי.

 

“He was big and strong and was holding a lot, but my boxing skills took over in the fight. He was trying to get on my nerves, but I knew that my skills would get me the win.”

 

Brooker (11-3, 5 קוס), who was very unhappy with the judges’ scorecards said, “I don’t know what these judges are looking at. I had the better ring generalship, aggressiveness and I brought all the pressure.

 

“I feel that because he was undefeated, the judges must have put him on a pedestal. Even though I have a couple losses, look who I have fought and defeated. I am an elite-level fighter as well, and I should get that same respect. That’s why SHOWTIME has me on.

 

"בסופו של היום, I just fight. It is up to fans who watch, they are the real judges for me.”

בפותח הטלוויזיה, בלתי מנוצח סופר קל Kenneth “Bossman” Sims Jr. ידיים Emmanuel “Renegade” Robles the second loss of his career in a closer than the scorecards reflected eight-round unanimous decision. It was scored 79-72 פעמיים ו 78-73.

“Kenneth Sims Jr. is the typical ShoBox סיכוי,'' הפרהוד אמר. “He showed a lot of good skills. He fought a different fight than the one we expected. He was more aggressive than we thought he’d be. With his amateur background and now the exposure on TV, I think he is a potential star.”

 

Sims (11-0, 3 קוס), שיקגו, חולה., who went past the sixth round for the first time in his career, began the fight with an overwhelming high-volume attack highlighted by vicious body shots.

Robles (15-2-1, 5 קוס), של סן דייגו, קליפורניה., עם זאת, picked up the pace and took advantage of Sims slowing his pace in rounds four through six. Robles upped his work rate and out-landed Sims 78-66 כללי. Referee Bengy Estives took a point way from Sims in round six for dropping his mouthpiece.

Sims gritted his teeth and caught his second wind in the seventh and eighth by out-landing Robles 49-34 overall and 46-24 power to grab a wider-than-expected decision.

“I didn’t have my best performance, but I still got the win,” Sims said. “I was trying too hard for a knockout, and that’s not me. He was a durable opponent, but my performance had nothing to do with that.

“I want to talk to my team about my next fight. My speed and feet were the difference in the fight, but I did not use them as much as I should.”

Robles, who was disappointed with the verdict, acknowledged Sims’ speed.

“He was moving a lot and I couldn’t neutralize that,’’ Robles said. “He was slicker than I thought he was going to be. I was putting on a lot of pressure and wanted to work the body, but he was slick and able to withstand what I was doing.

“I just have to get back to training and get better. You’ll see more of me. I will be back.”

של יום שישי three-fight telecast will re-air יום שני, ינואר 23 ב 10 p.m. ו/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME ON DEMAND beginning January 21.
