מיגועל קאָטטאָ (40-5, 33 קאָס) is a former WBC and Ring Magazine middleweight world champion and the first native of Puerto Rico to become world champion in four different weight classes. He previously held the WBO junior welterweight world title, the WBA welterweight world title, the WBO welterweight world title and the WBA super welterweight world title. He also represented Puerto Rico in the 2000 אָלימפּיק גאַמעס אין סידני, אויסטראַליע. Cotto has competed in 24 world championship fights, compiling a record of 19-5 מיט 16 knockouts in those bouts. In Puerto Rico, he is hailed as a national hero and the successor of Felix “טיטאָ” Trinidad as the island’s most revered boxer. Cotto is one of the biggest gate attractions in boxing and one of the largest pay-per-view draws among active fighters. אין יוני 2014, Cotto made history in his first fight as a middleweight by dominating Argentine southpaw and defending WBC and Ring Magazine Middleweight World Champion Sergio “ווונדער” מאַרטינעז. He is trained by legendary Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach and has fought some of the biggest names in the sport including Floyd “געלט” Mayweather and Manny “פּאַקמאַן” פּאַקקוויאַאָ. Cotto owns his own boxing promotional company in Puerto Rico, מיגועל קאָטטאָ פּראָמאָטיאָנס, and presides over his charity La Fundación El Ángel de Miguel Cotto, a non-profit organization dedicated to combatting childhood obesity. אין מאַרץ 2015, Cotto and Roc Nation Sports announced that they had entered into a partnership that includes a co-promotional agreement with Miguel Cotto Promotions to promote Cotto’s fights. אויף יוני 6, 2015, Cotto defended his WBC, Ring Magazine and lineal middleweight world championships against former two-time World Champion Daniel Geale at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, ניו יארק. Cotto scored a thunderous knockdown early in the fourth round before finishing matters with a second knockdown midway through the round, which left Geale unable to continue. אויף נאוועמבער 21, 2015, Cotto cemented his status as one of the biggest pay-per-view draws among active fighters in his much anticipated mega-fight against Mexico’s Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, despite going the distance for a twelve-round unanimous decision loss. The hard-fought bout has been dubbed as the biggest fight in the history of the famed Puerto Rico vs. Mexico boxing rivalry. The Five-Time World Champion is eager to return to the ring against James Kirkland on פעברואַר 25.
A Texas titan, representing the city of Austin, 32-year-old southpaw James “Mandingo Warrior” Kirkland (32-2, 28 קאָס) has built his reputation with explosive power. His fists have accounted for 28 knockout victories over the course of his nearly 14-year professional career. A former NABO and WBC Continental Americas Champion, Kirkland bounced back from his lone defeat against Nobuhiro Ishida in 2011 with five consecutive wins, four coming by way of knockout. Kirkland has defeated Brian Vera, Alfredo “Perro” Angulo and Carlos “King” Molina and handed Glen “Jersey Boy” Tapia his first professional loss by way of a punishing sixth round technical knockout, prior to taking the stage for a 12-round super welterweight war with Saul “Canelo” Alvarez on May 9, 2015 at Minute Maid Park in Houston, טעקסאַס.

לאַס וועגאַס (דעצעמבער 17, 2016) – Tonight’s final round of the 2016 “Knockout Night at the D” series ended in typical style as “Mighty” Aston Palicte won a 10-round split decision over previously undefeated “Lil'” Oscar Cantu in a terrific super flyweight match from start to finish inside the ונטערשטאָט לאַס וועגאַס עווענץ צענטראַל indoor facility.
די “Knockout Night at the D” סעריע, presented by די ד לאַס וועגאַסand Down town Las Vegas Events Center, was promoted by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions. This evening’s seventh and final “Knockout at the D” event in 2016 aired live on קבס ספורט נעטוואָרק and streamed worldwide on FloBoxing.tv
The Palicte vs. Cantu main event, as expected, was a classic match-up of contrasting styles between a dangerous puncher (Palicte) and consummate boxer (Cantu). There was surprising non-stop action from the opening bell. Power punching Palicte (22-2, 18 קאָס) pressed the action as the clear aggressor, but Cantu stood in the pocket, צו, as the technician used his defensive skills to make things difficult for his world rated Filipino opponent.
לעסאָף, it all came down to the 10טה קייַלעכיק, which Palicte swept on all three judges’ scorecards for a hard-fought split decision victory by scores of 98-92, 96-94, 94-96. Palicte, רייטאַד ניט קיין. 11 by the International Boxing Federation (יבף) און ניט קיין. 15 דורך די וועלט באָקסינג אָרגאַניזירונג (וובאָ), took Cantu’s North American Boxing Federation (NABF) title belt in addition to capturing the vacant WBO Inter-Continental strap.
Cantu, וואס איז רייטאַד ניט. 4 as a flyweight by the World Boxing Council (וובק), showed tremendous heart, granite chin and the ability to move extremely well, throwing punches from every conceivable angle. The difference, אָבער, proved to be Palicte’s slugging ability in this classic confrontation in which the puncher barely prevailed against the boxer.
אין די גלויבנס-שטריך, Jamaican junior middleweight Nathaniel “No Problem” Gallimore(16-1-1, 13 קאָס) scored a spectacular first-round knockout of previously unbeaten Angelo “Bombardero” Baez (15-1-1, 11 קאָס), the Chilean junior middleweight champion.
Gallimore hurt Baez midway through the opening round and then closed the show with vicious left to the liver that dropped Baez to his knees. In obvious pain, he was unable to get to his feet before the 10 count.
 Galiimore (pictured above in green), who fights out of Chicago, dedicated the fight to his stablemate, די שפּעט Ed Brown (20-0), who was murdered earlier this month. “I saw a tape of him (Baez) and knew he backed up to the ropes,” Gallimore explained the finish. “I practiced that shot in the gym and I’m very happy with the outcome. I told all my teammates back in Chicago that I was dedicating this fight to Ed Brown.”
Los Angeles junior middleweight Flavio Rodriguez (6-0, 5 קאָס) kept his undefeated record intact against previously unbeaten Mexican fighter Dilan “El Tremendo” Loza(5-1, 3 קאָס) in the television opener. ראַדריגעז, who one point during his 4 1/2-year hiatus from the ring weighed 90 pounds more than he entered the ring tonight, won by way of a third-round technical knockout. Loza was hurt by an accidental shot to the base of his head in the third and he was later dropped in the same round by the heavy-handed Rodriguez. שויפעט Jay Nady halted the bout after the third round.

“פֿאַר די רובֿ טייל,” Rodriguez said, “he didn’t do anything different. I thought I controlled the fight with my jab. My boy, לייב (סאַנטאַ קרוז, friends from LA), was a world champion and I want to get to his level.”
In a battle of unbeaten welterweight prospects, כאָומטאַון באַליבט Jeremy “J-Flash” Nichols (7-0-1, 2 קאָס) and San Diego’s קעווין “קאָ” Ottley (3-0-1) fought to a 6-round draw.
 Kevin Otttley (ל) & Jeremy Nichols fought to a draw
RJJ-promoted fighters, junior lightweight ראַנדי “די מאַטאַדאָר” Moreno (8-0, 7 קאָס) און באַנטאַמוועיגהט Max “The Baby-Faced Assassin” Ornelas (7-0, 3 קאָס), were both successfully showcased on the undercard.
Fast moving Moreno won his eighth fight in nine months, סטאָפּפּינג “געלט” Mike Fowler (5-4, 2 קאָס) אין דער פערט קייַלעכיק. Moreno improves each fight, showing incredible poise for a 21-year old boxer, and he legitimately rates as a national prospect to watch.
 Moreno (ל) kept rolling
Ornelas dropped Jorge Perez (6-5-1, 3 קאָס) in the second round on his way to a shutout decision over four rounds. The 18-year-old Ornelas recorded the seventh win of his 6-month pro career.
 Ornelas (ל) איז איצט 7-0 and only 18 יאר אַלט
Also fighting on the undercard, Texas junior featherweight Jessie “די איין” הערנאַנדעז ימפּרוווד צו 8-1 (6 קאָס) with a 6-round unanimous decision over Sharone “Smoke” פורמאַן (6-2, 2 קאָס).

ADAM LOPEZ VS. DANNY ROMAN – 10 ראָונדס, Super Bantamweights
לאָפּעז, פון סאַן אַנטאָניאָ, טעקסאַס, by way Phoenix, אַריז., is a prototypical שאָבאָקס prospect-turned-contender. ער ס 3-0-1 on the series, having defeated three previous unbeaten boxers on the series: Mario Muniz (11-0) in a hard-fought 10-round decision on Feb. 19, 2016, אָוטפּאָינטינג Eliezer Acquino (17-0-1) across 10 rounds on July 17, 2015, and knocking out פּאַבלאָ קרוז (11-0) in the second round on March 13, 2015. אין זיין לעצטן שאָבאָקס עקסקורסיע, Lopez boxed a 12-round draw with Roman Reynoso(18-1-1) אויף יולי 22, 2016.
“This will be my toughest fight. It is all about levels and progressing,’’ Lopez said of the matchup between the 26-year-old world-ranked contenders. “This may be my lastשאָבאָקס fight so I want to save the best for the last.
“Roman is very good fighter and I’m ready for a tough fight. He’s progressed a lot. He’s a good puncher, counter puncher and works the body. But I’m ready for whatever he brings. A win would be huge — it puts me in contention to fight a world champion.’’
An excellent boxer-puncher and tactician that likes to counter, Lopez was a standout amateur before going pro in February 2012. He is coming off an eighth-round knockout over Carlos Valcarcel אויף נאוועמבער. 11, 2016, and is facing likely his toughest test to date in Lopez.
Roman has won 13 in a row dating to March 2014 – and none of the fights have been close. ער איז געקומען 4-0 אין 2014, 6-0 אין 2015 און 4-0 אין 2016. The Los Angeles native, who is coming of an eight-round decision over previously unbeaten Marlon Olea (12-0) לעצט נאוועמבער. 18, וועט מאַכן זיין שאָבאָקס and East Coast debut in just his second outing outside of Southern California.
“I’ve been extremely active over the last few years and now all the hard work is starting to pay off,’’ said Roman, a pro since October 2009. “This is a tremendous opportunity and the type of fight I’ve been preparing for. Adam Lopez is a great fighter, and he’s highly ranked just like me. We are going to give the fans an exciting fight.
“I can box, I can brawl. I give the fans what they want. I think people are going to be impressed with how I fight. People want to see a fight and I know I’m going to bring it. Boxing fans are going to know who Danny Roman is on Jan. 20.''
RONALD ELLIS VS. CHRISTOPHER BROOKER, 8 ראָונדס, Super Middleweights
עליס, פון לין, מאַסע., and Brooker, פון פילאדעלפיע, are making their second שאָבאָקס סטאַרץ. Like Lopez, they fought Feb. 19, 2016, אין אַטלאַנטיק סיטי. Ellis boxed an entertaining eight-round majority draw in a slugfest with hard-hitting דזשערי אָודאַם; Brooker took an eight-round majority decision over previously unbeaten יוחנן מאַגדאַ(11-0) in a match that was originally announced a split draw but was later changed to a majority decision win for Brooker.
This will be Ellis’ second fight since the Odom fight. The 27-year-old Ellis, the older brother of welterweight prospect ראַשידי עליס, outpointed Oscar Riojas across eight rounds on Dec. 10.
Ellis feels he’s benefited from going the distance in consecutive contests. “It’s helped me that I’ve gone through it before,’’ said Ellis, whose 10 knockouts have come inside two rounds (eight in the first). "איצט, I know what they’re looking for. This time I’ll finish super strong and put on a show. I need this to further my career and put me in main event fights.
“I’ve seen Brooker fight a few times. He’s a tough guy who comes forward and comes to fight, and that is perfect for me. Brooker will be there for me to hit, and it will give me a great opportunity to showcase my talents.’’
ווי אַ ליבהאָבער, Ellis upset טעררעלל גאַושאַ to win the 2010 לאַנדיש גאָלדען גלאָוועס. Gausha went on to represent the United States at the 2012 Olympic Games and is now an undefeated professional middleweight.
Brooker, a physically strong, aggressive-minded boxer-puncher, is trying to regain his winning ways after a nine-fight winning streak ended when he lost by 10טה-round TKO to highly regarded ראָנאַלד גאַווריל (16-1) לעצט אקטאבער. 8 אין לאַס וועגאַס. The 25-year-old Brooker dropped Gavril in the fifth round but went down twice in the 10טה before it was stopped at 2:04. Entering the 10טה און לעצט קייַלעכיק, the fight was even on the judges’ scorecards.
“I’m ready and excited to get back in the ring,’’ said Brooker. “I can’t wait to fight another undefeated fighter on שאָבאָקס. I’m still looking to get to the next level. I was at Ellis’ last fight, and I saw an average fighter compared to the guys I’ve fought. He’s solid, throws nice, short punches but runs out of gas.
“In my last fight I lost because I kept looking for the KO. I have a new trainer now (Gaunch Muhammad), and I’m getting back to the technical part of boxing. I’m jabbing more, and in my previous camps I wasn’t jabbing or boxing enough. I have the heart and condition but I have to get to my opponent with the jab.’’
The Philadelphia native was a top level amateur who has been active since turning professional in 2015.
KENNETH SIMS JR. ווס. WELLINGTON ROMERO – 8 ראָונדס, Super Lightweights
Sims, פון טשיקאַגאָ, is matched with unquestionably the most dangerous opponent of a career that began in March 2014. This will be the eight-round debut for the 23-year-old, who has gone six full rounds six times.
“This is the biggest fight of my career,’’ said Sims, who is coming off a six-round decision over Jonathan Dinong לעצט נאוועמבער. 11. “I will be prepared for anything that I have to do. I’ve seen videos of Romero and I know he is a good fighter. I fought world champions in the amateurs so it’s not a big deal to fight him. I need to take care of business and get my win on national television. It’s as simple as that.”
Sims was a main sparring partner for פלויד מייַוועאַטהער (when he was getting prepared for <אַ href="http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&hl=tr&prev=search&rurl=translate.google.com.tr&sl=iw&u=http://fightnewsunlimited.com/tag/andre-berto/?lang=yi&usg=ALkJrhjcU3stOmYZK4Hak8DmFcIXu4-hOg" רעל = "קוויטל"> אַנדריי בערטאָ ) און מאַני פּאַקקוויאַאָ (as he was getting ready for Mayweather). Sims, known for his boxing skills and ability to work the body, איז אַ 2013 יוז. National Amateur Champion and a 2012 Olympic Trials semifinalist.
Romero had 268 amateur bouts and represented his native Dominican Republic in the 2012 אָלימפּיק גאַמעס, where he lost to eventual Gold Medalist וואַסיל לאָמאַטשענקאָ. Shortly thereafter he relocated to New York, where he turned pro in 2013. The 25-year-old is coming off a first-round knockout over Engleberto Valenzuela אויף דעצעמבער. 10.
A slick boxer who can punch and gives opponent issues because of his awkward style and movement, Romero has been brought along carefully against mostly modest opposition. The southpaw is coming off a first-round TKO over לויס Meroles last Dec. 5.
Romero understands that this could likely be his most daunting task to date. “I’m looking forward to introducing myself to the American public,'' ער האט געזאגט. “Sims is a good fighter but I will always like challenges, and this will be my biggest challenge as a pro.’’
STEPHON YOUNG VS. DANIEL ROSAS – 8 ראָונדס, Super Bantamweights
יונג, פון סט. לוי, is making his second שאָבאָקס אָנהייב. In his debut, he boxed a 10-round draw with previously undefeated Nikolai Potapov (14-0) in April of 2016.
“To be able to be back on שאָבאָקס feels good,” said Young, who registered a majority 10-round decision over previously once-beaten Juan Lopez Jr. in his last scrap on Sept. 30, 2016. “My first fight on שאָבאָקס was not a fair decision. It was my first 10-rounder and I feel like I won the fight. This time I will be able to show more of what I have.
“Training has been great. I already have been in camp for two months. The fight against Potapov was my first with my new coach (Herman Caicedo), and this will be our third fight. We won the NABA title by beating Lopez and now we’re back.”
The 25-year-old Young, who is currently ranked No. 9 אין די וובאַ, was an experienced amateur who compiled a record of 86-13 while representing the U.S. in a number of tournaments. In the U.S. Olympic Trials in 2011, he lost to the No. 1-rated amateur, ראַו'שעע וואָראַן.
The 27-year-old Rosas, פון מעקסיקא סיטי, is a nine-year veteran who is experienced against top opposition. אין 2011, in just his 13טה professional fight, Rosas fought to a 12-round split draw against Jose Cabrera in a bout for the Interim WBO Super Flyweight World Title. אין 2014, he lost a close, unanimous decision to Alejandro Hernandezfor the Interim WBO Bantamweight Title.
Rosas has rattled off three consecutive victories since fighting Hernandezt. אין זיין לעצט באַוט אויף אַפּריל 29, he lost via TKO to current IBF Super Bantamweight Champיונתן Guzman אין זיין ו.ס. דעבוט.

PROMOTER DON KING HOPES WBC WILL DECLARE BERMANE STIVERNE WBC INTERIM HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP
לאַס וועגאַס (דעצעמבער. 17, 2016) – In the aftermath of Saturday’s news that the WBC Interim heavyweight title fight in Russia between former heavyweight champion גאָלד קאַפּ and top-ranked אלעקסאנדער פּאָוועטקין had been cancelled because Povetkin tested positive for drugs again, האַלל פון רום פאַרשפּרייטער Don “Only In America” King offered a simple solution:
Declare his fighter, סטיווערנע (25-2-1, 21 קאָס), פון לאַס וועגאַס, the interim champion.
“I’ve had a long-standing respect with the WBC, beginning with Jose Sulaiman and now with his son, Mauricio, who has done an incredible job filling his father’s shoes as WBC president and just got re-elected for four more years. I stand with them and with the WBC for trying to do things the right way and with their organization’s safety procedures in regard to the boxers and the sport.
“It’s sad but this guy, Povetkin, has become a total embarrassment. He’s now tested positive in two WBC heavyweight title fights in a row. I’m all for winning and losing fights in the ring, but it’s time for justice to prevail. I don’t know what’s going on over there with so many Russian athletes in so many sports testing positive for drugs, but it has to stop. They cannot be allowed to continue to do things the way they are.
“The WBC should declare Stiverne world champion, make him the mandatory for (WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay) ווילדער, and let’s move on with it. There are a lot of great heavyweight fights that can be made with willing boxers who don’t break the rules every fight.
“I’m very disappointed for Bermane, who’s now gone through two training camps with nothing to show for it. Why put up all that money for travel and expenses and then have no fight. He was ready to beat Povetkin and regain a part of the WBC title.
“And then – worse yet — for them to try and put it on Bermane for not fighting is just ludicrous. They’re taking the victim and trying to set him up as the criminal in this.’’
Stiverne pulled out after the WBC withdrew its sanction because Poverkin tested positive for the banned substance Ostarine. WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman revealed the positive test by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA) on Saturday morning. דעמאָלט, the WBC withdrew its recognition of the fight.
“There’s no reason to fight if the WBC won’t sanction the bout,” said Stiverne, who could have gone through with the bout but without the sanction opted not to. “I’m very disappointed in the actions of Povetkin. I’ve been training for months to be victorious.
“To wake up the day of the fight, have breakfast, take a nap and then find out he tested positive is the worst possible situation.”
This is the second time in seven months Povetkin (30-1-0, 22 קאָס) has tested positive for a banned substance. He tested positive for Meldonium ahead of a scheduled May bout with Wilder, cancelling that fight.
If it had transpired, the winner of the fight for the WBC interim heavyweight title would have become the mandatory challenger to Wilder. Stiverne lost the WBC title to Wilder on a 12-round decision on Jan. 15, 2015. He’s the only fighter to go the distance with Wilder.
