發表評論

Nathan Beattie vs Milton Arauz headlines 1st August and 6 time World Champion Lee McAllister vs Edwin Palacios headlines 15th August

Following the success of the inaugural LET BATTLE COMMENCE, in association with PAPA JOHN’S PIZZA & NEON ENERGY DRINK, that took place at the Northern Hotel in Aberdeen last weekend, promoter Lee Mcallister has announced two more events in the series which will be broadcast live and exclusive on FITE TV on Saturday 1st August and Saturday 15th August 2020.

Back on the 18th July the fans of the pugilistic arts around the world watching LET BATTLE COMMENCE 1 on FITE TV were treated to the spectacle of the return to the fray by Lineal World Boxing Organization (WBO) Featherweight World Champion Scott Harrison, who faced and stopped Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International Champion Paul Peers in a non-championship six rounder.

Prior to Harrison-Peers the fans tuned in watched an incredible Battle Royale between 10 time Kick Boxing World Champion Caitlin Foran, who was making her professional boxing debut, and Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International Bronze Champion Jaime Bates, who stepped in as late replacement after original opponent Carly Mackenzie broke two toes in a riding accident the previous weekend. After six incredibly closely fought rounds Foran secured the victory by a close 58-56 points tally.

The third fight of the night was a fantastic all action War between undefeated Lewis Mulberry and Nicaragua’s Johnson Tellez. I’m sure those watching on TV were as enthralled with the action as much as myself, Mulberry’s ring name is “Machine Gun’ and believe me that is a most appropriate moniker, 作為 19 year old peppered the body of his far more experienced opponent with fast and powerful left and rights at a mega rapid pace. After six scintillating all action rounds, Referee Edward Law’s scorecard read 60-54 in favour of the teen sensation Lewis Mulberry.

Prior to Mulberry-Tellez Perth’s Adam Stewart (1-0-0) made his return to the ring against late replacement Nicaragua’s Alexander Zeledon, following an injury sustained by original opponent Liverpool’s Steve Sunners (4-0-0). Earlier this year Zeledon beat Manchester’s Dan Booth (4-1-0), so not an easy opponent, regardless of his negative record, 為 25 year old Stewart who returned to the fray following a three year sabbatical.

What a cracking fight, both protagonists went at it hammer and tongs for close to four rounds before Stewart’s power came into play late in the fourth. With around 25 second or so of the round remaining Stewart fired a massive Exocet to send the Nicaraguan to the deck, Zeledon was clearly in pain as he unsuccessfully tried to make it to his feet. Official time of stoppage 2 minutes and 40 seconds of the fourth round.

The opening fight of the night see 18 year old Heavyweight Liam Allan from Aberdeen make his professional debut against Puerto Rican Jose F Leon. Cracking opening round, but in the second Allan’s mature approach, that belied his tender years, really came into play.

As the second stanza progressed, Allan worked behind his superb jab to fashion some good openings, which he took without a second thought. Just about mid way through the second round one such opening enabled the youngster to let rip with a massive shot that sent Leon to the deck. Leon made the count and boxing resumed, then with around 30 seconds of the round remaining Allan created another opening and once again let rip and landed a big shot to send the South American to the canvas for a second time, the tough Puerto Rican tried to make it to his feet again but just failed to make the count, official time of the stoppage was 2 minutes and 40 秒.

The first August event, LET BATTLE COMMENCE II, in association with PAPA JOHN’S PIZZA and NEON ENERGY DRINK, takes place at the Northern Hotel in Aberdeen and broadcast live and exclusive by FITE TV on Saturday 1ST AUGUST 2020.

The line-up for the 1st August is:

1) 輕量級

2) 超輕量級

3) 中量級

Liverpool’s Scott Mcintyre (4-1-0) will take on the seriously tough Nicaraguan Wilmer Gonzalez (21-18-1), who just a few fights back KOd a certain British WBF European and International Champ.

4) 超羽量級

Denny’s Kevin Traynor (2-0-0) will need to be at his best when he takes on the exciting Greek battler Paris Stavropoulos (2-1-0), who makes his first appearance in the UK.

5) 重量級

The final fight of the night will pit debutant against debutant as Craig Dick takes on Michael Bassett, both the big lads have stated they will be looking to make a big impression on the 1st August.

The second of the August events, LET BATTLE COMMENCE III, in association with PAPA JOHN’S PIZZA and NEON ENERGY DRINK will take place at the Northern Hotel in Aberdeen and broadcast exclusively live on FITE TV on Saturday 15TH AUGUST 2020.

The line-up for the 15th August is:

1) 中量級

Six time, Five Division World Champion, and Promoter of the LET BATTLE COMMENCE series, Lee McAllister steps in to replace Malta’s Brandon Borg to face Gerona, Spain based Nicaraguan Edwin Palacios in the headline fight, definitely a much tougher fight for Palacios than what he was expecting, but the macho South American has stated he’s up to the challenge and to expect fireworks.

2) 羽量級

Sensational Teen former Amateur Star Hollie Towl will be making her professional debut against equally sensational World Boxing Council (WBC) Muay Thai World Champion Natacha De Almeida from Switzerland, who will also be making her professional boxing debut.

3) 中量級

Nathan Russo versus Wilmer Gonzalez – this highly anticipated clash of the Big Bangers was originally due to have been on the first LET BATTLE COMMENCE show in the series, but had to be rescheduled due to a minor injury suffered by Russo. Without a doubt this is going to be a highly exciting all action contest, how long it’ll last is anyones guess, as Russo has won every fight so far by KNOCKOUT and Gonzalez has 14 KOs on his record, including a huge upset KO win over a certain World Boxing Foundation (WBF) European and International Champion last year.

4) 次中量級

Instead of the anticipated rematch against Dean Porter, Leeds’ Jack Jones, will now face Nicaraguan hard man Michael Isaac Carrero, following original opponent Porter having to withdraw.

5) 最輕量級

Local lad Kenny Allan faces Chadwell Heath, Surrey’s Jordan Smith in the opening contest of the night, Allan will be looking to secure his second victory in his fledgling career, whilst Smith will be seeking to get the first win on his record on this just his third pro outing.

Boxing saved the life of Two-Division World Champion “El Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera

發表評論

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (六月 4, 2020) – Like many boxers, 2處世界冠軍 “厄爾尼諾加洛”何塞·安東尼奧·里維拉 credits boxing for saving his life.

“Absolutely,” Rivera agreed. “After my mom passed away when I was 10 歲, I gave up on life and my decision-making reflected that: hanging around with the wrong crowd including gang members, consuming alcohol between the ages of 10 and 15. I was definitely going in the wrong direction.

“I never thought I had a future until I started boxing. It’s hard to say what I’d be doing if I had never boxed, but by the way I was living, I’d probably be in jail or dead by now.”

Born in Philadelphia, Rivera lived in Puerto Rico and Springfield, 嘛, prior to him moving to Worcester, 嘛, where he met a man who helped change his life, 卡洛斯·加西亞, who was in charge of a special boxing program at the Worcester Boys & 女孩俱樂部.

Rivera had started boxing at the age of 14 ½ in a basement with his friend, Felix Lopez.  He had fallen in love with boxing after watching羅伯托·杜蘭 upset“Sugar” Ray Leonard in their first fight. The young Puerto Rican-American specifically used his amateur boxing experience to prepare for the professional ranks. Garcia, who is in the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame, put him in a novice match after only one amateur fight in order to put Rivera on the fast track, because he understood that Rivera dreamed of becoming a world champion as a professional. Rivera finished with a 35-15 業餘紀錄, highlighted by a bronze medal performance at the PAL Nationals.

“I never had big amateur aspirations but, 當然, I wanted to win every fight I competed in,” Rivera said. “Once I didn’t qualify for the Olympic Trials, my plan was to turn pro. I didn’t know how much the amateurs would groom me to be a successful professional boxer. I’m glad I listened to my coaches, otherwise I would have turned pro earlier, because I would get frustrated with the politics of the amateurs. I hated losing, but I hated losing even more when I knew that I should have won. After three years together (with Garcia) in the amateurs and gaining a great wealth of experience traveling all over New England, the country and even fighting in Canada, I saw all types of styles and talented boxers that helped me as a pro. Carlos is like a father figure to me and during all of our training and travels, he was always in my head, building me up to become a good boxer, but also to help me become a better man.”

十一月 7, 1992, Rivera made his pro debut, 淘汰Francisco Mercedes in the second round. He went on to win his first 23 pro bouts, including the Massachusetts State welterweight title in 1995. His first pro loss was to veteran Philadelphia fighterWillie Wise (20-3-4), who won a controversial 10-round split decision at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut. Rivera had proven that he was more than a prospect in his first loss, losing a close decision (98-95, 94-97, 94-96) to an opponent that upset Mexican icon塞薩爾查韋斯 (102-3-2) only three years later.

Showing the same resiliency that stayed with Rivera his entire career, two fights later Rivera stoppedGilberto Flores in two rounds to capture the International Boxing Organization (IBO) world welterweight championship. Rivera extended his new win streak to seven, before losing back to back fights. Four fights later, 雖然, Rivera registered his first statement victory in 2001, 淘汰Frankie Randall (55-10-1) 在 10日 round to retain his North American Boxing Association (還) crown in his first defense.

Now promoted by legendary Don King, Rivera traveled across the Atlantic Ocean in September 2003 to Germany, where few Americans were able to win. Rivera proved early that he meant business, dropping previously undefeatedMichel Trabant in the second round en route to winning a 12-round majority decision for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA).  His reign, 然而, didn’t last long. In his first defense, Rivera lost a 12-round split decision at home in Worcester to challenger路易斯·科拉佐 (24-1)

Rivera moved up one weight class for his next fight, showing the resiliency that was a staple during his career for his next fight, also at home, against WBA junior middleweight World championAlexandro Garcia (25-1).

In his next fight and first defense of his third world title, Rivera was stopped for the first time in his pro career, by new champTravis Simms (24-0), and then he was knocked out by丹尼爾·桑托斯 (24-0) in round eight of their WBA junior middleweight title eliminator.

Rivera retired in 2008 only to make a comeback in 2001, after which he retired again until returning for two fights in Worcester to complete his pro career with 50 打架, the last coming at the age of 46.

“Jose’s USA Boxing experiences shaped him into the man of character he is today, 兩個進出環,“說克里斯tofflemire, USA Boxing Alumni Director. “He took the road less traveled for a world champion, and in doing so he showcased his toughness and perseverance that made him a great example for today’s USA Boxers.”

Rivera was a true working world champion. Few world champions also had full-time jobs during their title reigns. Rivera used vacation time, as well as personal and sick days, when he went to training camp for some of his major fights.

“I always had a good work ethic growing up,” he explained. “When I moved to Worcester at 16 歲, I lived by myself: 學校, 工作, and then to the Boys & Girls Club to train. I kept the same work ethic I had at 19 when I turned pro. I became a father at 20, so providing for my family was essential. Although it was hard, I knew boxing wasn’t going to last forever, and I was lucky enough to find a good job working for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Trial Courts. It made for long days when I was training, especially when I was fighting for or defending my world championships. In the end, 雖然, keeping my job was the best decision I could have made for me and my family.”

里維拉. who was an Associate Court Officer for years and promoted last year to Assistant Chief Court Officer, is still involved in boxing. He and his oldest son, A.J. 里維拉, own and operate a boxing promotional company, 里維拉促銷娛樂, to give young fighters in his area opportunities to fight more often and at home. Jose occasionally drops by the Boys & Girls Club to visit his former coaches, Garcia and洛基岡薩雷斯, to support their young talent. He also goes to his friend肯德里克·鮑爾’s gym, Camp Be Right, to give young fighters there a few tips and to keep in shape (not for another comeback).

Jose Antonio Rivera will be best known for his toughness and determination, which led him into a different life, including three world championships and a wonderful life he never would have enjoyed.

USA Boxing pays tribute to True Patriot Robert Carmody 1964 奧運銅牌得主 & Soldier killed in Vietnam

發表評論

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (五月 21, 2020) – People all across the United States will rightfully pay respect to fallen military men and women during this Memorial Day weekend. One true American Patriot that USA Boxing will remember forever is 1964 奧運銅牌得主Robert “Butterball” Carmody, who was killed in action three years later at the height of the Vietnam War.

Born in 1938, Carmody learned to fight on the streets of Brooklyn, where he lived before joining the U.S. Army in 1957, and where he took his first boxing lesson. A natural-born fighter, he was selected to represent the 11日 Airborne Division, even after it was deployed to Germany, after he had earned his airborne wings, and Robert developed into a record 4-time All-Army flyweight champion.

Carmody also captured top honors at the 1962 International Military Sports Council and earned a bronze medal in 1963 at the prestigious Pan American Games. At the 1964 奧運會拳擊選拔賽, held at the famous New York’s World’s Fair, he upset flyweight favoriteMelvin Miller to earn a spot on the 1964 美國奧運拳擊隊.

At the Olympics, Carmody became a close friend of heavyweight喬·弗雷澤, the lone American to win an Olympic gold medal at the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. The smallest and biggest men on the Olympic Team were buddies. Frazier, 當然, went on to become a Hall of Fame heavyweight champion, who was inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame this past December.

“He’s the type of guy you really need,” Frazier said in a 2006 ESPN.com interview. “I had some hard times, things was rough, but he was a guy that helped you out a lot. I loved him like a brother.”

Hampered by a bruised hand, the 5’ 2”, 112-pound Carmody had a bye in the opening round, 淘汰Nam Singh Thapa (Nepal) in his first fight, took a decision (4-1) 與Otto Babiasch (德國), and lost in the semifinals by way of a questionable decision (1-4) to the eventual Olympic champion, Fernando Atzon (意大利).

Although he never publicly complained about the decision that may have cost him an Olympic gold medal, Carmody was visibly upset as he headed to the locker room, 什麼時候General William Westmoreland hollered to him, “Good job, soldier!” Carmody, 雖然, turned and reportedly yelled back, “You dumb son of a bitch!”

After the Olympics, Carmody retired from amateur boxing with a 128-12 記錄, returned home and rather than turn pro, he decided to stay in the U.S. 軍隊, training a few teams at the International Military Sports Council, including the U.S. Army squad.

Strings were pulled for the 10-year military veteran, because of his imposing status as an Olympic bronze medalist, he didn’t have to go with his 199日 Light Infantry Brigade when it was deployed to Vietnam. But even though he wasn’t combat trained, due to his training as a boxer, Carmody insisted on deploying with his unit on June of 1967, the day his son, Robert Carmody, JR. was born.

幾週後, Staff Sergeant Carmody’s unit. D Troop of the U.S. 17日 Calvary Regiment was on a routine six-man foot patrol north of Saigon. They were ambushed by Viet Cong guerillas and five of the six U.S. soldiers were killed, including Carmody, who was posthumously awarded a Bronze Star for valor. He became the first Olympic boxing medalist to die in combat.

“Robert Carmody’s selflessness and character extends far beyond our sport of Olympic-style amateur boxing,” said Chris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Director. “A warrior in the ring, a hero outside of the ring—he showed the world the very best of what USA Boxing has to offer, and the USA Boxing Alumni Association looks forward to keeping his legacy alive.”

“On this Memorial Day, USA Boxing wants to recognize and honor our fallen heroes who have gave their lives in defense of our country, like Robert Carmody,” stated USA Boxing Executive Director Mike McAtee. “On this Memorial Day, I think it is important to also recognize all who have served in our military, which Billy Ray Cyrus stated, ‘All gave some and some gave all.’ Thank you for your service, we will never forget.”

Olympic Bronze Medal winner to Bronze Star recipient, Robert Carmody was a fighter true and true, as well as a man of tremendous honor, and a legitimate hero.

“I’m honored to represent such high-quality Ukrainian fighters like Karen and Zoravor,” Fighter Locker president Ryan Roach said “They’re both trained by world champion Vyacheslav Senchenko. Anytime you can add such accomplished fighters to your stable, especially a champion like Karen, is a dream come true. I’m looking forward to getting them here in the United States and into fights.”
 
 

The 24-year-old Chukhadzhian, 排名第. 14 in the world by the World Boxing Association (WBA), captured the WBA International welterweight title in his last fight this past February 1, by way of a 10-round decision over previously undefeatedSergy Vorobiev (9-1).
 
Chukhadzhian is also a former World Boxing Organization (WBO) Youth and World Boxing Council (WBC) Youth Silver welterweight champion. Like the great Bernard Hopkins he lost his pro debut, he has reeled off 16 連勝.
 
早在 2008, Chukhadzhian first became inspired to box after watching“王” 亞瑟·亞伯拉罕 overcome a broken jaw to decisionEdison Miranda. Karen went on to have approximately 200 amateur fights and was crowned 2014 Ukraine National Champion.

Chukhadzhian and Petrosyan join Fighter Locker’s growing stable that already includes their fellow countryman, North American Boxing Association (還) 超中量級冠軍頭銜 斯坦尼斯拉夫·斯科福霍德 (19-2, 16 科斯). Other stablemates are Dominican welterweight 胡安·卡洛斯· “酥皮” 阿布雷烏 (23-5-1, 21 科斯), 前IBF青年世界超級輕量級冠軍; 林恩, MA超中量級 Khiry Todd (10-1, 8 科斯),多切斯特, MA量級 加布里埃爾·杜盧克（Gabriel Duluc） (15-3, 4 科斯), 特洛伊, NY超輕便 雷·傑·伯穆德茲, 多倫多, 加拿大次中量級 傑夫 “麻煩1” 大不里士 (8-3, 7 科斯), plus former Kazakhstan National Team light heavyweight Alexey Sevostyanov and Irish National champion 保羅·瑞安, who will fight as a welterweight in the pro ranks.

Undefeated boxing prospect Lamont Powell Escaped 36-bullet shooting without a scratch Founded “Gloves Up, Guns Down” 慈善機構

發表評論
Lamont Powell (ř ) is a winner in different ways
(photo courtesy of Ed Diller Photography)
 
普羅維登斯, R.I. (五月 5, 2020) – Undefeated super welterweight prospect拉蒙特 “The Blessed One” Powell, based on a near death experience 2-½ years ago in Providence, could easily have “幸運” as his nickname.
 
The 26-year-old Powell was a three-time Silver Mittens champion, who compiled a 45-4 業餘紀錄, prior to turning two years ago. 他是 5-0 (1 KO) as a professional but, due to the pandemic, he hasn’t fought since last August, when he won a 4-round unanimous decision over 14-7-1里卡多·加西亞.
 
Back on that near fatal night in 2018, Lamont and his uncle were sitting in a car in front of Powell’s home, when another vehicle suddenly and surprisingly stopped near them. Two unidentified young men jumped out and starting firing automatic weapons in Powell’s direction. Thirty-six rounds were shot, one hit Powell’s uncle in the leg, but Powell somehow miraculously escaped without a scratch.  
 
“No bullets hit me,” Powell confirmed. “I’m blessed and the reason for that is God and my mother – we lost her (梅利莎) 當我是 3 – who is my guardian angel. We were just sitting in a car, when two kids got out of a car and starting shooting our car. They had extended clips, but I don’t know who they were, and neither do the police to this day. My uncle was taken to the hospital and I had to start watching myself closer.”
 
Powell’s grandparents – Phillip Copper 和Mary Ann Powell – brought him up, because his mother had passed away and his father was in and out of his life. His grandmother is his legal guardian and his grandfather has been like a father since he was a baby.
 
Naturally, after his surreal experience, Powell dramatically changed his lifestyle. Instead of running the streets and ending up like many people he knew, dead or incarcerated, Powell dedicated himself to boxing and created a charity for high-risk kids, Gloves Up, Guns Down, sponsored by Big Six Boxing Academy in Providence, where he trains with his grandfather as head coach, as well as having former U.S. Olympian boxer賈森 “六大” 路 在他的角落.
 
After the shooting somebody who had been shot in the head reached out to Powell. They met to talk about what they’d been through and soon createdGloves up, Guns Down, 哪 “blew up” overnight, according to Powell.
 
“Gloves Up, Guns Down” offers at-risk youngsters an opportunity to try boxing as part of an after-school program aimed to keep kids active and out of trouble. Kids are supplied with boxing equipment and taught valuable lessons through boxing with proper coaching and support.
“I started boxing when I was eight years old,” Powell added. “Boxing kept me off of the streets and busy. This is a sport outside of school that everyone can get involved in.”
 
Powell is promoted by Jimmy Burchfield’s Classic Sports and Entertainment (CES). Burchfield clearly remembers the first time he saw Powell, because he was so impressive running a hilly 2 ½ mile course around a pond at Lincoln Woods State Park.
 
“I walk there often, and I’ve watched everybody struggle running those hills, including top athletes, but I saw this kid running the hills without a problem,” Burchfield remembered. “I later found out that he was a boxer and knew I’d never have to worry about him being in top shape.  
 
“Lamont came to see me with his grandfather, who has been such a big part of his life, and laterRoland Estrada joined us. I was impressed because Lamont had a full-time job, 但, he trains so hard. I learned that he came from one of the toughest areas of Providence and ran the streets as a kid. 有一天，, he called and asked if I would go with him to the Met School, where he was going to be speaking to about 150 kids and teachers. He spoke about running the streets and admitted that he had done it all. He said to me that if he could impact the lives of one or two of those kids, he’d feel happy, and that brought tears to my eyes. He was going speak at other schools, but this pandemic has put that on hold for now. His program is No. 1 in his life, helping at-risk kids so they don’t repeat what Lamont did when he was younger.”
 
在環, Powell displays a stiff jab and, 當然, tremendous conditioning. And like most boxers, he believes that he’ll be a champion someday.
 
“Everything is going as planned with CES,” Powell concluded. “My grandfather has been my head coach since day one, Jason also coaches me, and Doc. Estrada is my adviser. Boxing came naturally to me. I just needed to put in the hard work. Someday I will be a champion and I can’t wait to see my grandfather in the ring holding the belt over his head, because nobody deserves that more than him.”
 
Burchfield has been a boxing promoter for nearly 30 歲月, and he agrees that Powell will be a champion someday. “He’s definitely is on a mission to be a champion,” Burchfield added, and he has everything needed to make that happen. This kid has a really good story. He can be a champion and continue helping at-risk kids have better lives. What’s better than that?”
 
Powell, who also gave-away toys to children in need last Christmas at Big Six Boxing Academy, is on the boxing journey of his career that he believes will climax someday with him being crowned world champion.  
 
簡而言之, Lamont Powell is the total package, 進出環. And lucky to be alive!

SHOWTIME® ACQUIRES AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY RINGSIDE

RINGSIDE Chronicles The Lives And Struggles Of Two Boxing Prodigies Coming Of Age On Chicago’s South Side

Premieres On Friday, 六月 12 在 8:30 P.M. ET / PT在Showtime

紐約 - 五月 4, 2020 - SHOWTIME announced today it has acquired rights to the award-winning documentary RINGSIDE, which chronicles the dramatic upbringing of two boxing prodigies and follows the divergent paths they take as they navigate life’s uncertainties on the South Side of Chicago. Filmed over the course of nine years by award-winning director Andre Hörmann, RINGSIDE will premiere on SHOWTIME on Friday, 六月 12 在 8:30 P.M. ET / PT.

Winner of the Silver Hugo Award at the Chicago International Film Festival, RINGSIDE documents the lives of Kenneth Sims Jr., Destyne Butler Jr., and their dedicated fathers who train them, and their aspirations of surviving one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the nation to achieve boxing glory. Hörmann teamed up with award-winning cinematographer Tom Bergmann and editor Vincent Assmann in 2009 to begin following the gifted young athletes. Starting with their U.S. 奧林匹克® Boxing Team Trials, the filmmakers captured pivotal moments over nine years as the young men’s choices and circumstances changed, leading them down separate paths – one towards a promising boxing career and the other through the prison system.

“Filmed over the course of nine years, RINGSIDE is a complex, emotional account of two youths fighting to survive both professionally and personally,“斯蒂芬·埃斯皮諾薩說, 總統, 體育和事件編程, 欣欣網絡公司. “This remarkable film follows two gifted young boxers and the fathers who guide them, as they strive to overcome a seemingly never-ending series of personal and societal obstacles. The result is a moving story about hope, ambition, self-discipline, resilience and redemption. It is this type of provocative story, at the intersection of sports and society, that has become the hallmark of SHOWTIME Sports Documentary Films.”

Both young men achieved remarkable success in their amateur careers. Sims amassed over 250 業餘打架, winning numerous national titles, and after his professional debut in 2014, became a sought-after sparring partner for Manny Pacquiao and Jorge Linares among others. He has made four appearances on the SHOWTIME prospect developmental series的ShoBox: 新一代 to date. Conversely, Butler fell in with a burglary ring and served time in prison. He returned to boxing following his release in 2018, winning the Chicago Golden Gloves. He now stands undefeated following nine professional bouts.

A Sutor Kolonko and Motto Pictures production in association with Blue Ice Docs and Mitten Media, RINGSIDEis produced by two-time Academy Award® nominee and Emmy® Award winner Julie Goldman, Emmy Award winner Ingmar Trost and Emmy and Peabody Award winner Christopher Clements. The executive producers are Ken Pelletier, Mark Mitten and Carolyn Hepburn.

天生盒子雷 “BOOM BOOM” 曼奇尼

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (四月 27, 2020) — 作為一名拳擊手的兒子, 國際拳擊名人堂入選者 (“2015級”) 射線 “BOOM BOOM” 曼奇尼 為盒子而生, 和揚斯敦, 俄亥俄州的戰鬥機爬上了這項運動的山頂, 捕獲世界拳擊協會 (WBA) 輕量級標題 1982.

曼奇尼的父親, 已故 萊尼 “BOOM BOOM” 曼奇尼, 專業裝箱 1937 到 1947, 編譯 46-12-3 (16 科斯) 親紀錄. 萊尼是不. 1 世界輕量級排名 1941 並被認為是未來的世界冠軍. 然而, 當他在第二次世界大戰中受傷時，他的夢想悲慘地破滅了. 出院後重回拳擊, 但由於傷口導致的身體問題阻止了他發揮曾經巨大的潛力.

他的兒子, 射線, 拿著斗篷，帶著它一舉成名, 作為世界冠軍的榮耀和惡名. 他年輕時就開始拳擊，並在他成年時進行了第一次戰鬥 15 在克利夫蘭青少年奧運會上. 雷曾以為他必須等到他轉身 16, 因為那是參加金手套賽的最低年齡.

“當我聽說我可以進入 (青少年奧運會),” 曼奇尼記得, “我向父親施壓讓我走 (到克利夫蘭). 一個非常親密的家庭朋友正在我們隔壁鎮訓練一些人，他帶一些戰士參加青少年奧運會. 他說他會帶我去那裡. 我在首輪淘汰賽中以首戰獲勝，最終贏得了地區冠軍. 我去了底特律的中西部地區和當地的一個孩子打架, 薩米·富恩特斯, 去國民隊. 他決定打敗我, 但我學到了關於拳擊和生活的第一堂真正的課: 經驗就是一切. 這是我的第六場業餘比賽，有人告訴我富恩特斯有超過 200. 它並沒有阻止我, 事實上, 這讓我更加渴望成功。”

他成功了, 儘管他的侵略性風格最適合專業隊伍而不是業餘愛好者. 他贏了 43 的 50 業餘比賽, 獲得最高榮譽 1977 揚斯敦金手套和俄亥俄州東北部金手套. 他還贏得了東北俄亥俄州 AAU 錦標賽並進入了八強 1978 全國AAU錦標賽.

“我在半決賽中輸掉了一場勢均力敵的決定 1978 兩次獲得美國國家金手套獎. 奧林匹亞 戴維·阿姆斯特朗（Davey Armstrong）,” 曼奇尼說. “我失去了決定 安東尼弗萊徹 在四分之一決賽中 1978 全國 AAU 錦標賽並再次進入俄亥俄州博覽會的錦標賽決賽. 在我最後的業餘比賽中, 我失去了衛冕全國冠軍的錯誤決定 梅爾文·保羅 在 1979 全國金手套錦標賽. (之後) 我知道我不會再打一場業餘比賽，而是要轉為職業選手.

“當我參加業餘比賽時，我有更多的職業風格. 三輪對我沒有好處. 我從來沒有打過四局 (作為一個親). 我從六輪選手開始，因為, 我的風格, 三輪業餘比賽或四輪職業比賽對我來說幾乎相同. 六輪對我更有利，這立即得到了證明.

“我知道我不會因為我的風格贏得任何主要的業餘錦標賽. 一路上, 雖然, 我打敗了一些相當不錯的業餘愛好者: 達里爾·錢伯斯,備忘錄 Arreola, 蒂姆·克里斯蒂安森 和 馬克·基韋里尼. 我的業餘生涯讓我更加渴望以職業選手的身份贏得世界冠軍。”



他尋求和破壞的風格使他立即成為專業人士的最愛. “我必須有攻擊性, 當我參加其他運動時，作為一名戰士或在運動場上, 因為我的本能,” 曼奇尼解釋. “我不能坐等事情發生; 我必須努力讓事情發生. 我在我的商業生活中也遵循這種想法, 但很像格鬥遊戲, 你必須知道什麼時候進攻，什麼時候坐下來反擊。”

曼奇尼, 由於他的戰斗方式，有人稱他為小洛基馬西亞諾, 十月轉職業 18, 1979 在斯特拉瑟斯, 俄亥俄, 停車 菲爾·鮑恩 在首輪. 雷戰鬥 15 在他作為職業選手的第一年，他的連勝紀錄擴大到 19, 在他挑戰世界拳擊理事會之前 (WBC) 輕量級世界冠軍 亞歷克西斯·阿奎羅 (67-5), 誰通過 14 輪技術淘汰賽獲勝, 在一場即使死了的戰鬥中 10 發. 比賽結束後, 然後引用了未來的名人堂成員 Arguello 的話說: “我覺得我的心很特別, 但他的 (曼奇尼) 比我大. 總有一天他會成為冠軍。”

僅僅七個月和三場戰鬥之後, 曼奇尼奪得世界拳擊協會冠軍 (WBA) 輕量級世界冠軍的方式轟動一時的衛冕冠軍首輪淘汰賽 阿圖羅·弗里亞斯 (24-1). 雷將那場戰鬥獻給了他的父親, 誰沒能成為世界冠軍, 由於他在二戰中所受的傷.

曼奇尼結束了他的職業生涯 29-5 (23 科斯), 其中包括對世界冠軍的勝利 鮑比·查肯 (523-5-1), 埃內斯托 西班牙 (35-4), 弗里斯和 何塞·路易斯·拉米雷斯 (71-3), 他的五場失利都輸給了世界冠軍 – 阿圭羅, 赫克托卡馬喬, 格雷格·霍恩 和 利文斯通荊棘 (兩次).

“Ray'Boom Boom’ 曼奇尼在他的整個職業生涯中都展示了一顆冠軍的心,” 說 克里斯tofflemire, 美國拳擊校友主任. “儘管他在擂台上的成功主要是在專業層面上討論的, 作為業餘愛好者學習和成長的渴望激勵著當今的美國拳擊冠軍. 他是美國拳擊校友的另一個例子，他從業餘時間的經驗和教訓中獲得了巨大的成功。”

曼奇尼為自己在揚斯敦的出身感到自豪, 這也產生了世界職業拳擊冠軍，如 哈里·阿羅約, 傑夫蘭普金, 格雷格·理查森 和 凱利帕夫利.

“在揚斯敦長大對我作為一名戰士有很大幫助,” 曼奇尼談家鄉. “我們都知道這是一個多麼艱難的城鎮，我們知道所有戰士的故事, 業餘和專業, 誰在我們面前留下了印記. 在那里長大, 足球和拳擊是每個人都談論的兩項運動. 如果你在其中任何一個中留下了印記, 在你玩了很久之後人們仍然在談論你, 或者戰鬥的日子結束了. 所以, 在像揚斯敦這樣的小鎮取得成功, 本身就是一項巨大的成就。”

超受歡迎的曼奇尼是少數拍過電影的拳擊手之一 (“冠軍之心: 雷曼奇尼的故事)”), 歌曲 (“Boom Boom 曼奇尼” 沃倫·澤文) 和書 (“好兒子: 雷的生活 “BOOM BOOM” 馬克·克里格爾的曼奇尼) 關於他.

今天, 59歲的曼奇尼仍居住在揚斯敦, 他仍然參與拳擊活動，作為福克斯電視台 PBC 的色彩評論員. 在過去的三年裡，他還是俄亥俄州拳擊委員會的成員. “我參與了 (在拳擊比賽中) 盡可能接近我仍然可以成為粉絲,” 他承認. “我最想念的格鬥遊戲是在精神上和情感上挑戰自己, 並且能夠 “起床” 每天挑戰自己的身體. 在戰鬥前站在另一個男人面前, 就在戒指的中央, 並對自己說, “要么你今晚被帶走，要么我, 但我們中的一個人今晚要離開這裡,’ 是我的心態. 我想念那個挑戰!”

回顧他的拳擊生涯, 曼奇尼堅稱他不會改變任何事情. “我不能說我會做任何不同的事情, 回想起來, 因為我贏得了世界冠軍, 成功防守它四次, 賺了大錢，健康地退休了,” 曼奇尼總結道. “人們仍然記得併談論我的戰鬥，我進入了國際拳擊名人堂, 戰士的終極聖地. 所以, 為什麼我想做不同的事情?”
