Even before he signed a professional contract on his 18th birthday, Erickson Lubin had high expectations set upon him for 2016.
Σε 2013, Lubin was one of the United Statestop amateur boxers and being targeted as a surefire standout on the 2016 Η.Π.Α.. Ολυμπιακή ομάδα. Ωστόσο, the talented southpaw swapped that dream for another on October 1, 2013, when he turned pro and began his quest to become a world champion.
While Erickson “Σφυρί” Lubin has yet to fight for a world title, let alone obtain one, his decision to forgo a shot at Olympic gold has remained fruitful.
Lubin (17-0, 12 KOs) continued his ascent in the 154-pound division in 2016 by winning all four of his fights in dominating fashion-two by knockout and two by unanimous decision. With his perfect performance, the staff of Premier Boxing Champions selected Lubin as PBC’s Rising Star of the Year.
The 21-year-old Orlando, Φλόριντα, native beat out fellow young guns Justin DeLoach, Jarrett Hurd και Σεργκέι Lipinets, all of whom convincingly moved up the ladder in their respective weight classes this year.
Lubin, who in addition to his “Σφυρί” moniker has dubbed his right hand “Γρύλος” and his leftSledge,” got his year started on Ιανουάριος 31 με 10-round decision over Mexico’s Jose De Jesus Macias in Immokalee, Φλόριντα.
While Lubin was unable to knock out Macias-a veteran who has never been stopped in 28 pro fights-he gained a fifth-round knockdown with a counter right hook and won every round on two scorecards, with the third judge giving him all but one round.
Lubin returned to the ring on Ιούνιος 18, βαθμολόγησης ένα third-round TKO of Daniel Sandoval στο Σικάγο. In that bout, Lubin pounded the head and body of his Mexican opponent before hurting him with a body shot late in Round 3. While Sandoval did not go down, referee Mark Nelson stopped the fight at the 2:36 σημάδι.
Less than a month later, Lubin jumped back in the ring against his third straight Mexican opponent, battling Ivan Montero in Birmingham, Αλαμπάμα, επί Ιούλιος 16. Montero entered the eight-round bout with a record of 20-1, and he gave Lubin his toughest test yet, as the fight went distance. Στο τέλος, αν και, the young southpaw proved his skills were superior, sweeping all three judges’ scorecards.
Lubin, who has never fought a boxer with a losing record, capped his year earlier this month in emphatic fashion with a second-round KO of Juan Ubaldo Cabrera στο Λος Άντζελες. In that bout, Lubin used both “Γρύλος” και “Σφυρί” to drop Cabrera twice in Round 2 and gain his sixth stoppage in his last eight bouts.
As he continues to sharpen his skills with each passing bout, don’t be surprised if Erickson Lubin’s star continues to rise in 2017-perhaps all the way to the top of the super competitive 154-pound division.

Πάσχα, Commey hit all the right spots in PBC’s Round of the Year

Κάντε κλικ ΕΔΩ for story and video via PremierBoxingChampions.com
Entering the late stages of a competitive, action-packed fight with a vacant 135-pound world title at stake, Robert Πάσχα Jr. and Richard Commey upped the ante in a thrilling three minutes that brought out the best in both men.
After Commey gained a questionable knockdown of Easter in the eighth round of their Σεπτέμβριος 9 bout at Santander Arena in Reading, Πενσυλβάνια, there was complete uncertainty to which fighter had the edge on the judges’ scorecards.
With a date with greatness up for grabs, Robert Πάσχα Jr. και Ρίτσαρντ Κόμι wasted no time going back at it in Round 9, which the staff of Premier Boxing Champions has selected as PBC’s Round of the Year for 2016.
Easter-Commey beat out three other worthy candidates: Γύρος 9 του Keith Thurman vs Shawn Porter, Γύρος 2 του Leo Santa Cruz vs Carl Frampton and Round 4 του Adonis Stevenson vs Thomas Williams Jr. It was a closely contested round, with two of the judges siding with Easter and and one giving Commey the nod, which factored into Easter winning a split decision.
Μόλις 10 seconds into Round 9, Easter and Commey moved into close quarters, exchanging heavy blows with both hands for nearly 30 seconds with little pause.
The fighters backed off nearly a minute in as they regrouped from the heated exchange and resumed a more measured approach working primarily with their jabs.
Κομί, ωστόσο, quickly ramped the action back up about 90 seconds into the round as the Ghana native began to let loose with his right hand coming behind the jab.
With a minute left in the round and a partisan crowd filled with family and friends from his hometown of Toledo, Οχάιο, rooting him on, Easter appeared to gain the upper hand as he pinned Commey against the ropes and landed a couple of solid rights during a flurry of punches.
After escaping the barrage, αν και, it was Commey’s turn to return fire as he landed a couple of rights before Easter responded with a head-turning left hook.
In the final 25 δευτερόλεπτα, both fighters again exchanged rapid-fire blows before backing off just before the bell so that not only they could catch their breath, but that everyone watching could as well.

Now he is primed to reach contender status after dominating tough Mexican Luis Solis in June and stopping previously unbeaten Jose Felix Quezada in September.
Ένας πρωταθλητής Golden Chicago Gloves, Ο Ramirez απέκλεισε επτά από τους εννέα πρώτους επαγγελματίες αντιπάλους του και κέρδισε πέντε νίκες 2015 συμπεριλαμβανομένης μιας απόφασης για τον πρώην παγκόσμιο πρωταθλητή Cristobal Cruz.

Τώρα, Easter will step into the ring as the fighting pride of his hometown for the first time, with his sights set on an impressive performance.
Representing Las Piedras, Πουέρτο Ρίκο, Cruz’s last fight saw him in an entertaining back-and-forth scrap with lightweight contender Ivan Redkach in April that saw both men hit the canvas on their way to a narrow split draw. Cruz owns victories over Martin Honorio, Antonio Davis and Hevinson Herrera in a career that saw the fighter win his first 19 επαγγελματικές περιόδους.
A three-time Olympian, Warren competed for the U.S. στην 2004, 2008 και 2012 games before turning pro.

After dropping a controversial split-decision in their first fight, Warren defeated Juan Carlos Payano by majority decision in the rematch in June and became the first member of the 2012 Η.Π.Α.. Olympic team to win a world title.
Fighting out of Petropavl, Καζακστάν, Zhakiyanov has won his last 21 fights since his only professional loss in 2008.

I’m excited to be getting back in the ring at The Claridge! It’s like my adopted home in Atlantic City and the whole staff over there have been nothing but great to me and my Rising Star Promotions crew,” είπε Lamanna. “My last fight with Dusty was a rough one for me, I feel I was robbed of a decision win or at least a draw. I took some time off, enjoyed time with family and friends but I’ve been training for the passed 2 months and camp has been going really well.
This is my second fight with new trainer Ray McCline and we expect to put on a show come January 28th.”

We are delighted to have signed one of the best amateur boxers in the world,” Hyde είπε. “Mohammed has a great style with knockout power in both hands. He will kick-star his pro career in front of his adoring fans in Casablanca February 18ου. He is a national hero, έτσι, the plan is to take full advantage by building him up at home in Morocco.
Two other boxers managed by Hyde, πρώην World Boxing Association (WBA) featherweight Simpiwe Vetyeka και middleweight Gevorg Khatchikian, will fight in the main event and co-feature, αντίστοιχα, against opponents to be determined.
Vetyeka (29-3, 17 KOs), fighting out of South Africa, κατατάσσεται αυτή τη στιγμή Νο. 4 από το WBA. The only two pro losses for Khatchikian (24-2, 12 KOs), a Netherlander, have been to present super middleweight world champions James Degale (IBF) και Gilberto Ramirez (WBO).
