RAEESE ALEEM



“I’m very excited to be making my televised debut on SHOWTIME, where the world will get to see my talent. I’m definitely looking forward to making some new fans. This is a stepping stone to bigger and better things.



“I feel like I’m flying under the radar. I’ve been right there with all the other rising prospects. I’m originally from a small town so I never had the proper eyes on me. I feel like I must train twice as hard as the average fighter just to be in the same conversation than these guys. But that’s just how the game is. I’m ready to show up and show out.



“It’s been a huge transition since I moved out here [Las Vegas] from Muskegon, Mich., where I’m originally from. I came out here with no family and no friends, with the sole idea to pursue my career. I took a leap of faith and it has paid off. It’s been all about business here in Las Vegas, and it’s been great. I’ve been exposed to a lot of great fighters and picked up a lot of good tips.



“Adam Lopez is a tough Latino fighter who is going to bring his ‘A’ game, and he has something to prove. He has a lot of experience. He’s been in the ring with a lot of skilled guys and current world champions. This is the type of fight I need to take the next step toward being a world champion.



“I’m an aggressive boxer who likes to throw a lot of punches. I make my opponent miss and I make them pay. I’m all-action. I’m a beast! I’m prepared to go the distance, but my ultimate goal is to get him out of there, to get the win.”

It’s been a hell of a journey coming back to the United States from Mexico, where I learned to fight the Mexican style, always throwing big shots to entertain the fans. Fighting in the amateurs in Mexico, is like fighting in the pros. Sometimes we didn’t use headgear. It was crazy, but it made me the fighter I am today.”

USA Boxe pesi piuma Andrea Medina in avvicinamento 2020 Luogo olimpico a Tokyo

COLORADO SPRINGS, Giro. (Febbraio 10, 2020) – Venendo al secondo posto consecutivi nei principali tornei, USA Boxe pesi piumaAndrea Medina è all'interno di un torneo di rappresentare il suo paese ai Giochi Olimpici di Tokyo 2020.

Nel mese di dicembre, la 20enne Medina ha perso una decisione divisa perLupe Gutierrez alla 2020 U.S. Qualificazioni olimpiche per la boxe, e 4-1 aIulia Tsyplakova (Ucraina) il mese scorso al torneo di Strandja in Bulgaria. Il Chula Vista, Il pugile californiano è stato recentemente nominato ai Giochi Olimpici di Tokyo degli USA Boxing 2020 Squadra di qualificazione di boxe.

“Il secondo posto alle prove mi ha solo reso più desideroso di ottenere quel posto di qualificazione olimpica,"Medina ha detto. "Volevo solo mostrare a USA Boxing che ero io a rappresentare a 57 chilogrammi. Sto solo migliorando e non vedo l'ora di mostrare al mondo tutto quello che ho.

"Per questo (Strandja) essendo il mio primo torneo internazionale in assoluto, Sono stato molto orgoglioso di quanto sono arrivato lontano nel torneo e di aver ottenuto quella medaglia d'argento. Sono stato molto contento di tutte le mie prestazioni e sono entusiasta di tornare a lavorare su cose su cui devo migliorare. A parte tutto questo, andare in un altro paese è stato fantastico e non vedo l'ora di viaggiare di più facendo ciò che amo di più”.

Medina e le sue compagne di scuderia del Team USA si stanno attualmente allenando a Colorado Springs presso il modernissimo United States Olympic and Paralympic Training Center. Per qualificarsi per la partecipazione ai Giochi Olimpici di quest'anno, Medina deve finire tra le prime tre nei 57 chilogrammi (125 lbs.) divisione all'America's Qualification Tournament, 26 marzo-aprile 3, a Buenos Aires, Argentina. Un'ultima opportunità alle Qualificazioni Mondiali di Parigi, Francia, in cui potrebbe qualificarsi per le Olimpiadi piazzandosi tra le prime cinque.

"Significa il mondo per me essere nella squadra di qualificazione olimpica di boxe USA USA,” ha aggiunto Medina. “È tutto ciò per cui ho lavorato da quando ho iniziato a gareggiare a otto anni e non posso credere che i Giochi Olimpici siano solo tra pochi mesi. Fare la storia a San Diego essendo la prima persona a far parte della squadra olimpica di boxe è un grosso problema per la mia famiglia, la mia città e me stesso. Non posso esprimere quanto sono entusiasta di essere arrivato così lontano, ma c'è ancora tanto da fare, e sono pronto.

"Sento di lavorare meglio sotto pressione e credo davvero che mi qualificherò per Tokyo, che sia in Argentina o in Francia, ma il mio obiettivo principale, proprio adesso, è allenarsi duramente per ottenere quell'oro in Argentina".

Medina crede che la sua principale forza all'interno del ring sia la sua capacità di adattarsi durante un combattimento. Preferisce combattere all'esterno, ma può litigare se necessario, perché le piace tirare un sacco di pugni di potenza.

Medina si rende anche conto di essere in un posto privilegiato per quanto riguarda la crescente popolarità del pugilato femminile, seguendo negli Stati Uniti le orme di boxe del due volte medaglia d'oro olimpicaClaressa Shields e medaglia di bronzo olimpicaMarlen esparza, insieme ai passati olimpionici statunitensi comeRegina Sottobosco eMikaela Mayer.

"Il pugilato femminile diventerà sempre più grande,“Medina ha predetto. “Essere una combattente donna oggi significa molto per me, perché lo faccio da 15 anni, e vederlo crescere anno dopo anno mostra solo quanto siano forti le femmine e cosa possiamo realizzare. Prevedo che, nel futuro, il pugilato non sarà visto come uno sport da uomini, ma sarà neutrale sia per gli uomini che per le donne”.

Competere alle Olimpiadi è stato il sogno di una vita per Medina, ma ha anche dei progetti per il suo futuro immediato.

“Raggiungere le Olimpiadi è stato il mio obiettivo principale durante la mia carriera di pugile,” ha rimarcato Andrea, “Quindi ora che è così vicino mi viene voglia di lavorare ancora di più. Altri miei obiettivi sono laurearmi e ottenere il mio condominio, che farò dopo che tutto questo sarà finito.

“Ho intenzione di diventare professionista dopo le Olimpiadi, molto probabilmente all'inizio o nel mezzo di 2021, così posso finire la scuola e dare al mio corpo un po' di riposo e recupero".

Andrea Medina è così vicino ad essere un olimpionico e tutto ciò che è associato a quel risultato che può praticamente raggiungerlo e sentirlo. Solo un altro passo, sia a Buenos Aires che a Parigi, e sarà missione compiuta per lei.

(Febbraio 6, 2020) – WBC Featherweight Campione del Mondo Gary Russell Jr. and unbeaten mandatory challenger TugstsogtKing TugNyambayar went face-to-face at a final press conference Thursday before they headline action live on SHOWTIME on Saturday, Febbraio 8 in a Premier Boxing Champions event from PPL Center in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

I biglietti per l'evento dal vivo, which is promoted by TGB Promotions and Kings Promotions, sono in vendita ora e possono essere acquistati tramite www.pplcenter.com/events (direct linkQUI).

Here is what the fighters had to say Thursday from the Renaissance Allentown Hotel:

Gary Russell JR.

“Abbiamo avuto un grande campo di addestramento. I have my younger brothers on the card with me and in camp, pushing me every day. Siamo pronti, focused and hungry.

Tug will be the best he possibly can be because he knows he’s facing one of the best fighters in the world. He has everything to gain and nothing to lose. He’s going to leave it all on the line.

I think Tug is a lot more technically sound than a lot of the guys who I have competed against. He’s another guy with everything to gain and nothing to lose, so I’m anticipating a tough fight.

If it were up to me, I’d be facing Leo Santa Cruz or Gervonta Davis, but this is what I have to face. I’m here to defend my title in style once again.

It’s amazing to watch my younger brothers and to have them on the same card. I’m excited to work their corners. There’s never been a set of three brothers to become world champions, and I think we’ll do that real soon. They’re both extremely talented and hungry. I expect them to be better than me by the time they’re at this point in their careers.

I was the first fighter to turn pro on ShoBox, and I went on to win my title on SHOWTIME. The fact that we’re still doing it now speaks wonders. I work great with their team and I’m grateful to be in this position.

You should expect to see what you always see with me. Boxing at its best. A great deal of ring generalship. Good boxing IQ. Hand speed. Punching power. The total package as a fighter. Infatti, I’m trying to figure out why I’m not on the pound for pound list given all of that. That’s an issue.

TUGSTSOGT NYAMBAYAR

“Sono molto eccitato per questa lotta. It’s going to be a good fight for the fans. Gary Russell Jr. is a great champion, but watch on Saturday night, when I become the new featherweight world champion.

I just have to be better than Gary Russell on Saturday night. The past experience won’t matter. If he thinks I’m too inexperienced for this fight, he is going to be in for a surprise Saturday.

I know that I’m the underdog, but that doesn’t affect me. I don’t care if I’m the favorite or the underdog.

I’m not worried about any ring rust. I’ve worked so hard in the ring during training camp to make sure I’m the best I’ve ever been.

Working with Ismael Salas has been very good for me and I think it’s taken me to another level in my career. All of skills, all of my power and speed, it will all be with me on Saturday. I just have to put it together for my best performance.

I’m very ready for this fight. I want to be the first WBC featherweight champion in history from Mongolia. Sono pronto, you just need to watch on Saturday.

Guillermo Rigondeaux

Bantamweight is my division. I have no issues making that weight. I want to thank my team for getting me prepared and getting me to this position. All that’s left is to fight Saturday night.

I want to also thank Ronnie Shields for how he has prepared me for this fight. It’s been a great training camp and I can’t wait to step into the ring and become champion again.

“io sento 100% and I believe that bantamweight has always been my best weight. I did well at 122 libbre, so i stayed there. My plan now is to dominate this division.

Me and Ronnie Shields have great chemistry and worked well together. Ronnie is a great trainer and I’m looking forward to a long run that we’re going to have together.

I’m going to be phenomenal in the ring. I’m going to unify 118 pounds just like I did at 122 libbre. I’m excited to get started.

My strategy will depend on the fight that Solis brings. I’m a veteran in this sport, dating back to the amateurs, so I’m used to seeing so many different styles. I’m to fight the way that gives me the best chance to win.

LIBORIO SOLIS

Thank you very much to my team who has backed me and supported me leading up to this fight. I’m very grateful for this opportunity. My opponent has been a great champion and I’m very excited to be here to fight him.

This is obviously going to be a great fight. I’m a warrior who always comes to fight. He can pick his strategy however he wants. But I just want to get in there and put my skills on display.

I was already a champion in one division and I had a fight taken on the scorecards at bantamweight, or else i would already be a two-division champion.

Saturday is going to be different than my last fights. Both me and Guillermo give our heart and soul and we’re going to fight until the best man wins. I’m not leaving that ring without a championship.

I’m going to come with everything on Saturday. I come to fight and I come to win. I’m sure Guillermo is the same. The difference will be my determination to win this fight.

I don’t think anyone’s weight or which division we fought at in the past will be an advantage. I’m sure he could have always fought at 118. The person with the advantage is who wants it more.

JAIME ARBOLEDA

I want to thank all the great champions up on this stage and everyone on my team who made this fight happen. This opportunity has been a long time coming and I’ve been preparing hard to make the most out of it.

“Di Sabato, I’m very confident that this is going to be a great fight and end in a knockout. I’m prepared and I know that I’m going to win.

This is a great chance to get one step closer to my dream of becoming a world champion. I know what I have to do and I’ve prepared every day to make sure that I fight my best on Saturday night.

We have a lot of respect for each other and we’re looking forward to Saturday night. Don’t miss this card because it’s going to be action packed from start to finish.

JAYSON VELEZ

I’m happy to be here again and back in a big fight. My last time fighting on SHOWTIME was in 2012 and I’m very thankful for this opportunity to compete on this stage once again.

I’m blessed to be able to do what I do every day. I’ve fought professionally since 2007. This is the dream that every boxer has. When I win on Saturday, I’ll be the mandatory for the belt and that’s the opportunity that I want.

I’ve been training hard for this fight and I’m ready. I’ve won three fights in a row heading into a great fight between two hungry fighters. We want to add each other to our record and I believe that this fight is ending in knockout.

Don’t miss this fight because this is going to be great. There’s going to be a lot of action. Every time I step into the ring, vincere o perdere, I will leave everything in there. I fight with my heart and I fight for Puerto Rico.

Daniel Roman Seeks Immediate Rematch with Murodjon Akhmadaliev

LOS ANGELES, COME (Febbraio 6, 2020) – A week ago, at the Meridian Island Gardens Arena in Miami, FL, Daniel “The Baby Face Assassin” Roman (27-3-1, 10 KO), valiantly relinquished his two super bantamweight word titles (WBA / IBF), losing a hard-fought split decision to Murodjon Akhmadaliev (8-0, 6 KO). Roman showed true grit in the loss and is now vehemently campaigning for an immediate rematch.


“It was a close fight and I take my hat off to Akhmadaliev for being a true warrior,” said Roman, who is promoted by Thompson Boxing Promotions and Matchroom Boxing. “I want a rematch because I think I won the fight. I believe I deserve to get that opportunity because I left it all in the ring. I know Akhmadaliev has the heart of a champion, and I believe he’ll want a to face me once more to settle the score between us.”


“Daniel Roman is the embodiment of how a prize fighter should carry themselves inside and outside of the ring,"Ha detto Eddie Gonzalez, Roman’s manager and trainer. “The fight was a split decision and if anyone deserves another shot, it’s Daniel.”


“We are in the process of requesting the rematch and we hope that the WBA and IBF realize that Danny is a credit to the sport of boxing,"Ha detto Alex Camponovo, Vice President and matchmaker for Thompson Boxing. “The fight was razor sharp close and I personally think Danny edged it out; now we need to wait and trust that Daniel Roman will be granted the rematch he is seeking and deserves.”


“Its moments like these where a true champion shows his heart by working his way back to the top,” Roman concluded. “There is no doubt in my mind that I’ll once again be a world champion when that opportunity presents itself. My promoters and management team are the best, I know they will get it done. I’m going to do everything in my power to get my world titles back.”

I want the boxing world to be talking about me, as I seek to become a world champion once again. Febbraio 8 will be a special day for me and my family.



“I know at super bantamweight I am a force to be reckoned with. Now that I’m moving down to bantamweight, I feel stronger and I’m getting the most out of my skills. The bantamweight and super bantamweight divisions are filled with great fighters to test myself against. It’s a very exciting time and I am training very hard for each opportunity that is granted to me.”

When you’re a champion, you only fight the top opponents and those are the type of fights I want. I’m going to start another long reign as champion beginning February 8.”

Founded by retired boxer Tony Milch, Gloves and Doves is a team made up of Jews, Christians and Muslims from Israel. All boxers, maschio e femmina, are selected compete as a member of the team. Despite notable cultural differences, Gloves and Doves promotes peace in the Middle East through boxing. Gloves and Doves also has a youth program for teens ages 14-17.


Melson is headed to Israel for a week in early March and along with Milch, will visit boxing gyms in more than five Israeli cities.


“The world needs to witness Gloves and Doves,"Ha detto Melson, who retired in 2016 con 15-2-1 record and raised more than $400,000 for spinal cord injury research by donating 100% of his fight purses. “Exposure is the key to helping human beings that have preset notions they blanket another group with, evolve through those preset notions and learn what is real. Just imagine the world witnessing these optics – Jews, Christians and Muslims, standing side by side as teammates fighting a common opponent – a real-life optic that is beyond value.”


The team begins competition April 2 in London against Team England and will travel to various international tournaments including October 17 at Gleason’s Gym in Melson’s native Brooklyn, NY.

The City of Framingham, located 20 miles southwest of Boston, dates back to the American Revolution and, forse, may be better known as being part of the famed Boston Marathon course. Framingham may never have had a pro boxing show held there, but it doesn’t necessarily mean boxing isn’t popular in the city of nearly 69,000 residents.

We’ve had amateur boxing shows in Framingham, but this will be the first professional event,” Thomas explained. “Kids here are into boxing even though they may not be as knowledgeable about boxing as elsewhere. If more kids understand what boxing can do to better their lives, boxing would have and will get bigger with more exposure to the sport, and that’s why it’s so important to support this show.

SHREVEPORT, La. – January 31, 2020 - After his fourth consecutive victory in a little more than 12 months onShoBox: La nuova generazione, Ruben Villa is ready to graduate from the 19-year prospect series.


 
The undefeated featherweight Villa put on a boxing clinic in a dominating unanimous decision win over Alexei Collado. The judges scored the fight 99-91 and 98-92 twice in the main event Friday night from George’s Pond at Hirsch Coliseum in Shreveport, Il.


 
The 22-year-old Salinas, Calif., native Villa (18-0, 5 KO), who entered the ring paying tribute to the late Kobe Bryant by wearing his No. 8 Lakers jersey into the ring, called his performance “solid” against a “tough and aggressive fighter.”


 
“He was challenging throughout the fight,” said Villa. “I feel like I put on a good show. He was a big knockout puncher and he’s no pushover. He brought out the best in me.”


 
Villa, who was the was also the 2014 e 2016 Nazionale di Golden Gloves Champion, is currently ranked No. 5 a 126 pounds by the WBO and No. 13 dal WBC. He said after the fight he’s ready for the best his division has to offer.


 
The 31-year-old Cuban Collado (26-3, 23 KO) who lives in Miami, lost for the first time in seven bouts. “It was a good fight,” said Collado, who won the 2006 Junior World Title in the flyweight division. “We both brought everything. We put on a good show for the fans. He moves a lot and he’s a smart fighter. I feel like when I threw a lot I hit him but I wasn’t active enough.”


 
Villa said he stayed disciplined training during the holidays. “Now I’m going to take a few weeks off and then get right back in the gym,"Lui ha detto.


 
Nella co-optional attacco, undefeated Ukrainian and 2012 Olympic Bronze medalist Taras Shelestyuk (18-0, 10 KO) recorded a dominating unanimous decision victory against Argentina’s Luis Alberto Veron (18-2-2, 9 KO). The judges scored the 10-round welterweight fight 97-93 e 98-92 due volte.


 
Shelestyuk, who overcame a bad fifth-round cut on his forehead, had boxed just 10 rounds in the last three years.


 
“It was a good fight,” Shelestyuk said. “I hit him with some good shots, and controlled the fight. I have been out since March, and I feel that I performed well. I am happy to be back on television.


 
“The cut didn’t bother me. This is professional boxing, and these things happen. I want to be back in May or June. If I come back in the next several months, I want to fight a big name – guys like Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia.”


 
In apertura trasmissione televisiva, late replacement Sulaiman Segawa (12-2-1, 3 KO) looked impressive in hisShoBox debut seemingly out-boxing Zhora Hamazaryan (9-1-2, 6 KO) and recording the better stat sheet, but the close lightweight fight was called a split-decision draw. One judge had Segawa winning 78-74, another 77-75 for Hamazaryan and the third judge called it even, 76-76.


 
ShoBox analyst Steve Farhood had the fight scored 77-75 Segawa, while Barry Tompkins and Raul Marquez both saw it 78-74 in favor of Segawa.


 
“Ho vinto la battaglia,” said Segawa, who took the fight on just four days’ notice. “I maintained him and his aggressiveness. I came up to his weight and dictated the action. I staggered him a couple of times and he was not touching me.”


 
Segawa earned the better stats in nearly every category. Hamazaryan was more active (57.5 punches per round to Segawa’s 53.6) but Segawa outlanded him 130-100 generale, 42-14 jabs and 88-86 power and was more accurate in all phases (30%-22% generale, 28%-8% colpi, 31.3%-31.1% potere). Segawa even led 25-22 in body connects


 
Segawa, 28, moved to Silver Spring, Md., two years ago and is originally from Kampala, Uganda. He has won six times against previously undefeated opponents with his two losses also to undefeated fighters.


 
Hamazaryan, who was making his thirdShoBox aspetto, returned to the ring after 16 months as he returned to his native Armenia to get his physical education degree.

 

“It was a good fight,” the 23-year-old Hamazaryan said. “I started slow because of the switch in opposition and felt rusty. I’m going to go right back to the gym and keep on learning. And I will be better.”


 
It was the second consecutive split draw for Hamazaryan, who also recorded a split draw against Thomas Mattice in his lastShoBox appearance in September of 2018.
