“This is the strongest card from top to bottom that I have promoted at Barclays Center,” said DiBella Entertainment President Лу Дібелла. “Every single fight is significant and competitive, and this is a great follow up from the tremendous success that boxing had with Thurman-Porter this past weekend.”

 

“This will be our 19ї турнір з професійного боксу, but from top to bottom it’s arguably our best card yet,” said Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment CEO Бретт Yormark. “We are excited to welcome undefeated Santa Cruz and Frampton to Brooklyn for the first time, a fight that could rival Barclays Center’s epic Thurman-Porter bout for Fight of the Year.

Липня 30 is going to be another big night for BROOKLYN BOXING.”

“I just have to get one fight in. This first fight with Elio (Rojas) will be somewhere between 135 і 140 фунти, but I want to fight at 135 and win a title there. I want to win a title there and keep going after champion after champion. Now that all that (uncertainty) is behind me I look forward to the next stage of my career. This next stage of my career will be what people remember me for.”

 

“Mikey Garcia is a great fighter,” Rojas said. “I want to thank him for this opportunity. We are both former WBC World Champions and I expect a great fight. Однак, all of the talk surrounding this fight has been about Mikey’s comeback and his future plans. I am no tune-up. This is also about me coming back and fighting again.

I’m working hard in camp to get another knockout and to make my mark on the division.”

 

“This is the start of realizing my dream,” Rabchenko said. “America is the Mecca of boxing so it is a huge privilege for me to be asked to fight there. American fans like to see knockouts and I like to knock people out so I think they will like what they see. I think I can build a fan base there. I am hungrier than ever. I have not seen much of Harrison, but I am ready for anyone. People say he is a very good fighter with good power. I’m not worried.

“I couldn’t be more excited about this fight,” Farmer said. “This is my Barclays Center debut and it is going to be a spectacular performance. I have called out anyone and everyone in the 130- pound division to no avail, so now I’m moving up to 135 to take on Redkach, one of the most feared punchers in the division. Redkach is an aggressive guy and I know he is coming to fight, but there is no way I leave that ring without my hand being raised. This is a fight where I can and I will make a major statement. I’m willing to fight whoever they put in front of me to inch closer to a world title opportunity and Липня 30 is another step in that direction. I tip my hat off to Redkach for giving me this fight, but this is my time to shine.”

After a rousing introduction by “Скажений Babe” Мішель Росадо, attendees brunched and networked, with Frank Sinatra crooning in the background, sharing their triumphs and business cards. “The brunch is so much more than just a breakfast event,” said Rosado. “The connections forged here have resulted in business collaborations and friendships. What started as an annual event, has grown, and I can easily see us gathering quarterly, all over the country.”
Post brunch, the time had come to honor one of boxing’s trailblazers, Кеті Дува, who was presented the Raging Babe Luminary Award. Among those who shared stories of Duva’s boxing growth and dominance was Main Events’ Віце-президент з операцій, Joleen Mizzone, who has worked side-by-side with Duva for 19 роки. Although she couldn’t attend in person due to being in California with three of Main Events’ бойовики, Mizzone had colorful, but moving words for her friend and colleague. “Kathy Duva has been through a lot in her life. I have seen her overcome so much in these past 19 роки. I remember thinking to myself, “Wow she is one of the strongest people I know!” She has inspired me to be the person I am in this business. Her morals and eye for this business are [лайливе слово] extraordinary.
“One of the secrets to happiness is the innocent enjoyment of simple things,” said first-time brunch attendee and former NYSAC Chairwoman Melvina Lathan as she described the event. “Маючи це на увазі,, how wonderful to share a moment in time with a group of women, dining,, conversing, and laughing, all the while emanating beauty, потужність, grace and joy, without even trying. It was intimate, genuine and loads of fun, especially the reading of the infamous congratulatory letter submitted by Jolene!”
“This was another inspiring event in one of the greatest cities in the world,” said Rosado of the brunch. “There was so much talent, so much heart, so much passion, and so much boxing knowledge contained in these four walls. There were lovers, бойовики, survivors, and I sincerely hope that the connections they made on that day result in amazing business collaborations and lifelong friendships. I’m so grateful for everyone who attended, and to Kathy Duva, for being an example for all women in the industry.”
The Raging Babe Brunch is made possible by the generous support of several organizations. “The Raging Babe brunches are labor of love for me,” said Rosado. “They aren’t meant to put money in anyone’s pocket – on contrary, and the cost has often fallen far short of sponsor contributions. I want to take this opportunity to truly, from my heart, thank the organizations that make it possible for these events to continue. These organizations, by virtue of their partnership, celebrate and support the women of boxing, and the spirit of these events. From my heart, and the hearts of the women who attended New York, Нью-Йорк, спасибі Всесвітня боксерська організація (WBO), War Tape, Box Stats, Boss Case, Всесвітня боксерська рада (WBC), John Francis LLC і Молодь Боротьба Уперед.

“Відгук був приголомшливим на всіх фронтах. Від бійців, фанат виходить і спонсорами. Клардаж і Атлетична комісія штату Нью-Джерсі також із задоволенням працювали.”
“Я думаю, коли шанувальники знають, що кожні пару місяців вони знають, що можуть бачити подібні події за допомогою Rising Promotions, події починають продаватися самі. З заходами, запланованими на липень, Вересень та листопад, ми будемо продовжувати будувати на тому, що ми розпочали.”
Сказав Томас Ламанна про підвищення акцій, “Кожен великий промоутер десь починається, Я просто так сталося, що почав у віці 24 в той час як все ще активний у моїй кар'єрі з профі-18-1”
“Все почалося з того, що я просто робив ці шоу, щоб підтримати мене. Ми з Рей Макклайном із Залу слави боксу Атлантик-Сіті зустрілися в Лас-Вегасі під час тижня поєдинків Мейвезер / Пакьяо і обговорили проведення шоу в The Claridge, оскільки він мав з ними прямий зв’язок. Коли зустріч закінчилася, Я почав бачити загальну картину з цим, тому я сів з батьками та моїм промоутером паном. Вінсент М. Акції Понте з Гольфстріму, ми зібрали сильну команду з міцною місією та три успішні шоу пізніше, ми на місці,” Продовження Томас ЛаМанна.

“Це завжди була моя мрія та мета стати чемпіоном світу. Це перше і головне, бо я все ще боєць, але у мене також є мета стати одним з найкращих промоутерів у боксерському спорті. Більшість людей кажуть, що я не можу, марна трата часу, грошей не заробляти. Це там спосіб мислення, і вони можуть зберегти це мислення. Я прагну бути чудовим у всьому, що роблю, і це лише чергова подорож. Слідкуйте за підвищенням акцій.”
