“Jason Sanchez is the real ‘Cinderella Man,’” said Top Rank chairman Bob Arum. “He is young, hungry and capable of pulling off a major upset. It should be an exciting battle.”
“I’m excited to be back in the ring for the sixth defense of my world title. I know there is a big target on my back because I’m the champion, but nobody is going to take this title away from me,” Valdez said. “This will be my second fight training with Eddy Reynoso. Training with Eddy, I feel the best I’ve ever felt. I felt great in the ring during my first fight with Eddy in my corner. I know that I will look even better this time out. The fans in Reno and watching on ESPN and ESPN Deportes can expect a great showing from me on June 8.”
“I am truly honored and blessed to have an opportunity like this,” Sanchez said. “Coming from Albuquerque, New Mexico, I knew I had to work extra hard to be noticed and to get where I’m at right now. I will be bringing this belt home to Albuquerque, to my family, my supporters, ja ennen kaikkea, my late brother Alan Sanchez. I believe he guided me down this road and that my journey is only beginning.”
Valdez (25-0, 20 KOs), Mexico’s first two-time Olympian, has thrilled boxing fans with his go-for-broke style. He won the WBO featherweight title in July 2016 and proved his mettle with a trio of 12-round bloodbaths against Miguel Marriaga, Genesis Servania and Scott Quigg in consecutive bouts. Valdez outlasted an over-the-weight Quigg last March by unanimous decision despite fighting more than half the bout with a severely broken jaw. Following the Quigg bout, Valdez took nearly a year off, returning Feb. 2 in Frisco, Texas, to knock out then-unbeaten Italian challenger Carmine Tommasone in the seventh round.
The 24-year-old Sanchez (14-0, 7 KOs) enters this championship fight as one of the featherweight division’s fastest-rising young guns. Viime lokakuussa, he stunned then-unbeaten Jean Carlos Rivera via unanimous decision in Panama City, Panama. Following the Rivera victory, Sanchez signed a long-term promotional contract with Top Rank. He impressed in his Top Rank debut Feb. 2 in Frisco, Texas, knocking out Daniel Olea in the second round. Sanchez hopes to become only the fifth men’s boxer from New Mexico to win a world title.
Barrera (22-2, 14 KOs), a former Cuban amateur standout, defected to the United States in 2009 and turned pro later that year. The Miami-based bruiser won the first 17 bouts of his career before dropping a decision to pound-for-pound great Andre Ward. A perennial contender, Barrera holds victories over Joe Smith Jr., Vjatsheslav Shabranskyy, Karo Murat and former super middleweight world champion Jeff Lacy. He challenged Dmitry Bivol for a light heavyweight world title last year and fought valiantly before being stopped in the 12th ja viimeinen kierros.
Tiivisteet (22-2, 16 KOs), a former linebacker for Alabama A&M University, traded in his cleats for trunks and turned pro after a five-fight amateur career. Hän oli 19-0 when he clashed with Edwin Rodriguez in November 2015. In a seesaw battle that included five knockdowns, Rodriguez knocked out Seals in the third round of a Fight of the Year contender. Seals is 3-1 since the Rodriguez battle, the lone loss coming via disqualification after he hit his opponent while he was on the ground. The winner of this can’t-miss action fight will be in line for a potential world title opportunity.
“I am very excited to have signed with Top Rank, a world-class organization with the best light heavyweights in the world,” Barrera said. “I am excited about the future, but the first step is to handle business June 8 and then I can look forward to a shot at a world title. My ultimate goal is Sergey Kovalev. I’ve been chasing him my whole career. Toivottavasti, we can finally fight this year.”
“This means everything to me. I had a great opportunity with Edwin Rodriguez, but I went into that fight with a torn rotator cuff. I was basically fighting with just my right hand,” Seals said. “Nyt, Olen 100 percent healthy. Tämä on minun aika. Barrera had his time. Minusta tuntuu hyvältä. I feel sharp. I feel young. I have sacrificed so much and have had a lot of time to reflect on the decisions I’ve made and all of the hardships I’ve gone through. Kesäkuun 8, I’m going to unleash all of my frustration on Barrera. I don’t want to take anything away from Barrera. He’s a world-class fighter, but I am as well.”

Wilder would join an impressive list of Hall of Famers who dominated the sport during their reign – Tommy Burns, Joe Louis, Joe Frazier, Muhammad Ali, Larry Holmes, Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, Vitali Klitschko and future Hall of Famer Wladimir Klitschko. *Huomautus: number of title defenses listed belosisään
“Fighters like Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson and more have paved the way for me,” Said Wilder. “Now I’m going to take what they started and make sure that the heavyweight world championship stays in America for a long time.”
Wilder’s successes in the ring have seen him skyrocket toward the kind of recognition that heavyweight champions have garnered throughout history. Sisään 2018 he was ranked 34 on ESPN’s “World Fame 100” list, the top spot of any boxer in the world.
“Being the heavyweight champion and holding that title on the American sports landscape is a huge deal,” Said Wilder. “There was a time where that person was as well-known as the president. I’m going to keep leaving a path of destruction inside the ring, so that everyone knows I am the one name and one face of the heavyweight division.”
List of fighters with nine consecutive heavyweight title defenses(listed chronologically): 1.) Tommy Burns (11) 2.) Joe Louis (25) 3.) Joe Frazier (nine) 4.)

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Toukokuu 6, 2019) – USA Boxing keskipaino Troy Isley on tulossa nuoren uransa merkittävimmästä voitosta, kun hän voitti 2016 Olympiakultamitalisti, Kuuban Arlen Lopez, äskettäisessä Pan American Games-karsinnassa Managuassa, Nicaragua.
Lopez toimi Isleyn kannalta positiivisena barometrinä potentiaalinsa suhteen 2020 Olympiajuoksu. “Lopezin lyöminen on toistaiseksi suurin voitoni,” Isley myönsi. “Hän voitti kultamitalin viimeisissä olympialaisissa. Kostoin menetys häntä vastaan 2017. Olemme taistelleet melkein mantereella, mutta hän hävisi puolivälierissä, ja hävisin semifinaalissa. Voimme kohdata toisensa jälleen heinäkuussa Pan American Games -tapahtumassa.”
Sisään 2017, Isley valtasi kultamitalin Elite-maailmanmestaruuskisoissa, joka merkitsi ensimmäistä amerikkalaiselle eliittibokserille kuudessa vuodessa. Hän on edennyt vuosi vuodelta, ottaa parhaita kunnianosoituksia 2012 & 2013 Kansalliset PAL-mestaruuskilpailut, 2014 Kansalliset nuorten olympialaiset, 2016 & 2017 Elite National Championship. Tähän mennessä tänä vuonna, voiton lisäksi Pan American Games karsinnassa, hän vei kultaa myös Strandja-turnauksessa Bulgariassa.
Ei liian räikeät saavutukset lapselle, joka ei todellakaan pitänyt nyrkkeilystä, etenkin jalkapalloon verrattuna, joka oli hänen suosikkiurheilulajinsa kasvaessa.
“Palattuaani kuntosalille harjoittelin, Alexandria (VA) Nyrkkeilykerho,” USA: n maajoukkueen apuvalmentaja Kay Koromba muistetaan,” he tarvitsivat apua nuoren lapsen kanssa, Troy Isley. Minulla oli yksinkertainen keskustelu hänen kanssaan. Hän sanoi, että hän olisi palannut kuntosalille, jos olisin siellä valmennuksessa. En palannut vähän aikaa ja hän ei palannut. Lopulta otin kuntosalin, kun valmentaja lähti, ja Troy palasi.
“Troy on ystävien kanssa Keyshawn Davon (USA Boxing's No. 1-mitoitettu kevyt). He molemmat asuvat Virginiassa (Troy Alexandriassa, Keyshawn Newportissa) ja treenata kanssani Alexandria Boxing Clubissa, kun emme asu ja treenaa Colorado Springsissä. He taistelivat lapsina ja heistä tuli hyviä ystäviä. Kaikki muut täällä olevat nyrkkeilijät etsivät heitä.”
“Olin vain 8 ja aluksi en todellakaan pitänyt nyrkkeilystä,” nyt 20-vuotias Isley puhui tutustumisestaan amatööriboksiin. “Olen kiinnostunut enemmän joukkueurheilusta, kuten jalkapallo, mutta luopui nyrkkeilystä, kun päätin kilpailla Box-Offs-kisoissa. Halusin vain olla lapsi, etkä voi pelata nyrkkeilyä. Menin takaisin kuntosalille ja löysin kaikki. Valmentaja Kay kertoi isälleni, että hän voisi tehdä minusta kansallisen mestarin, ja se antoi minulle paljon itsetuntoa.”
Itsekuvaama nyrkkeilijä, Isley on älykäs, hyvin puhuttu nyrkkeilijä, jolla on tulevaisuuden silmät, nyrkkeilyn ulkopuolella, Online-kurssien ottaminen DeVry Universityn kautta. “Voin tehdä kaiken,” hän tarjosi nyrkkeilystyyliinsä. “Pyrin käyttämään lisää jakkeja ollakseen parempana all-boxerina. Tykki asettaa rikoksen. Työskentelen töissäni, koska voit voittaa taisteluja torilla.”
Järjestäjät asettuvat linjaamaan yritystään allekirjoittamaan Isley, jolla on lopullinen suunnitelma, joka sisältää 2020 USA: n nyrkkeilyjoukkue, mitali Japanissa, ja sitten kääntyä ammattilaiseksi.
“Olympialaiset ovat vain vuoden päässä,” Isley totesi. “Olen lähellä Keyshawnin kanssa Shakur(Stevenson, 2016 Olympialainen hopeamitalisti ja 11-0 pro mahdollisuus). Harjoittelu heidän kanssaan helpottaa asioita meille kaikille. Me ajamme toisiamme ja harjoittelemme eri tyylejä vastaan. Teen aina uusia juttuja. Autamme toisiamme koulutuksessa, sparraus, ja vain puhuminen. Olemme aina yhdessä, joko Alexandriassa tai Colorado Springsissä. Shakur menee edelleen sinne hyvää sparrausta varten.
“Shakur kertoo meille paljon kokemuksistaan olympialaisissa ja nyt ammattilaisena. Minä ja Keyshawn olemme aina puhuneet yhdessä olemisesta USA: n nyrkkeilyn olympiajoukkueessa. Jatkamme töitä ja pysymme keskittyneinä. Se on ollut unelmamme.”
Unet toteutuvat, mutta, ensimmäinen, Isley valmistautuu Pan-Am-kisoihin ja, mahdollisesti, hänen kumimatkansa puolustavan olympiakisojen kanssa, Lopez.
