Promoted by Top Rank, in association with Let’s Get It On Promotions and Atlantis Casino Resort Spa, tickets for this world championship event priced at $103, $68 e $43 (including facility fees) are on sale now and can be purchased viaTicketmaster.comor in person at the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa gift shop.
“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, Nuovo Messico, 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, and most of all, my late brother Alan Sanchez. I believe he guided me down this road and that my journey is only beginning.”
Valdez (25-0, 20 KO), 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.
Il 24enne Sanchez (14-0, 7 KO) enters this championship fight as one of the featherweight division’s fastest-rising young guns. Last October, 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 KO), 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., Vyacheslav 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 e ultimo ciclo.
Sigilli (22-2, 16 KO), a former linebacker for Alabama A&M University, traded in his cleats for trunks and turned pro after a five-fight amateur career. Era 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. Fiduciosamente, 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. “Ora, Sono 100 percent healthy. Questo è il mio tempo. Barrera had his time. Mi sento bene. 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. Nel giugno 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.”

In an event taking place live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center, la casa di Brooklyn boxe ™, Wilder will attempt to defend his WBC title for the ninth time since first capturing the belt in January 2015. Wilder’s triumph marked the return of heavyweight prizefighting in America and the end of an eight-year drought without an American heavyweight world champion, the longest in the history of the sport.
“There has been a long line of great American heavyweight champions who represented our country with pride, strength and honor in the ring,” Detto Wilder. “I take the responsibility very seriously to pick up where they left off and continue to show every young fighter who looks up to me, that they one day can be the heavyweight champion of the world.
“I’m a champion of the world, but I represent for the entire country and everyone in it,” Detto Wilder. “I’ve fought challengers from all around the world, knowing in my mind how important it was to keep this title in the U.S.
If successful on May 18, Wilder will become just the 10thfighter in the more than 135-year history of heavyweight boxing to make nine or more consecutive successful heavyweight title defenses. 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. *Nota: number of title defenses listed beloin
“Fighters like Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson and more have paved the way for me,” Detto 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. In 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,” Detto 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.) Muhammad Ali (nine in first run, 10 in second reign) 5.) Larry Holmes (20) 6.) Mike Tyson (nine in first run) 7.) Lennox Lewis (nine in second run) 8.) Vitali Klitschko (11 in second run) 9.)

COLORADO SPRINGS, Giro. (Maggio 6, 2019) – Pesi medi di boxe USA Troy Isley sta arrivando la vittoria più significativa della sua giovane carriera, quando ha sconfitto il 2016 Medaglia d'oro olimpica, Cuba Arlen Lopez, al recente Pan American Games Qualifier a Managua, Nicaragua.
Lopez è stato un barometro positivo per Isley in termini di potenziale 2020 Corsa olimpica. “Finora battere Lopez è la mia più grande vittoria,” Ammise Isley. “Ha vinto una medaglia d'oro alle ultime Olimpiadi. Ho vendicato la mia perdita a lui in 2017. Abbiamo quasi combattuto in The Continentals, ma ha perso nei quarti di finale, e ho perso in semifinale. Potremmo affrontarci di nuovo a luglio ai Giochi Panamericani.”
In 2017, Isley ha conquistato una medaglia d'oro ai Campionati del mondo Elite, che ha segnato la prima volta per un pugile d'élite americano in sei anni. Ha fatto progressi di anno in anno, prendendo il massimo dei voti al 2012 & 2013 Campionati Nazionali PAL, 2014 Olimpiadi nazionali juniores, 2016 & 2017 Campionati Nazionali Elite. Finora quest'anno, oltre a vincere ai Pan American Games Qualifier, ha vinto anche l'oro allo Strandja Tournament in Bulgaria.
Risultati non troppo squallidi per un ragazzo a cui non piaceva davvero la boxe, soprattutto rispetto al calcio, che era il suo sport preferito da bambino.
“Quando sono tornato in palestra mi sono allenato, Alessandria (VA) Club di boxe,” Assistente allenatore della nazionale USA Kay Koromba ricordato,” avevano bisogno di aiuto con un ragazzino, Troy Isley. Ho avuto una semplice conversazione con lui. Ha detto che sarebbe tornato in palestra se fossi stato lì ad allenare. Non sono tornato per un po 'e lui non è tornato. Alla fine ho preso il controllo della palestra quando l'allenatore se n'è andato, e Troy tornò.
“Troy è amico di Keyshawn Davè (USA Boxing's No. 1-leggero valutato). Entrambi vivono in Virginia (Troia ad Alessandria, Keyshawn a Newport) e allenati con me all'Alessandria Boxing Club, quando non viviamo e non ci alleniamo a Colorado Springs. Hanno combattuto da bambini e sono diventati buoni amici. Tutti gli altri pugili qui li guardano.”
“Avevo solo 8 e all'inizio non mi piaceva davvero la boxe,” l'ormai ventenne Isley ha parlato della sua introduzione alla boxe amatoriale. “Ero più interessato agli sport di squadra come il calcio, ma ho rinunciato alla boxe quando ho scelto di gareggiare nei Box-Off. Volevo solo essere un bambino e tu non puoi giocare a boxe. Sono tornato in palestra e ho picchiato tutti. L'allenatore Kay ha detto a mio padre che poteva trasformarmi in un campione nazionale, e questo mi ha dato molta autostima.”
Un pugile pugile auto-descritto, Isley è intelligente, pugile ben parlato con gli occhi sul futuro, al di fuori della boxe, prendendo corsi di business on-line attraverso la DeVry University. “Posso fare tutto,” ha parlato del suo stile di boxe. “Sto lavorando per usare più colpi per essere un pugile migliore a tutto tondo. Il colpo imposta l'offesa. Sto lavorando al mio jab perché puoi vincere i combattimenti con un jab.”
I promotori si stanno allineando per proporre alle loro società di firmare Isley, chi ha un piano definitivo che prevede la realizzazione del file 2020 Squadra olimpica di boxe USA, medaglia in Giappone, e poi diventa professionista.
“Manca solo un anno alle Olimpiadi,” Notò Isley. “Sono vicino a Keyshawn e Shakur(Stevenson, 2016 Medaglia d'argento olimpica e un 11-0 prospettiva pro). Allenarsi con loro rende le cose più facili per tutti noi. Ci guidiamo a vicenda e ci alleniamo contro stili diversi. Raccolgo sempre cose nuove. Ci aiutiamo a vicenda nella formazione, sparring, e solo parlando. Siamo sempre insieme, sia ad Alessandria che a Colorado Springs. Shakur va ancora lì per un buon sparring.
“Shakur ci racconta molto delle sue esperienze alle Olimpiadi e ora come professionista. Io e Keyshawn abbiamo sempre parlato di stare insieme nella squadra olimpica di boxe degli Stati Uniti. Continuiamo a lavorare sodo e rimanere concentrati. È stato il nostro sogno.”
I sogni si avverano ma, primo, Isley si sta preparando per i Giochi Pan-Am e, possibilmente, il suo incontro di gomma con la medaglia d'oro olimpica in carica, Lopez.

NEW YORK (Maggio 3, 2019) –Middleweight contender Chris Pearson scored a major victory over previously undefeated Olympic Bronze Medal winner Yamaguchi Falcao in a 10-round bout at The Joint at The Hard Rock in Las Vegas.
The win netted Pearson the WBO Latino Middleweight title.
Pearson boxed very well as he befuddled Falcao, and consistently beat the former amateur star to the punch throughout the contest.
Pearson, who already held a win over Falcao in the World Series of Boxing, repeated the verdict of 2011 by using good head-speed that saw the judges scorecards read 97-93 e 96-94 due volte.
The win will gain Pearson a high-ranking in the WBO, and improves the Trotwood, Ohio native’s record to 17-2.
This was the 3rd consecutive win for Pearson, who is managed by Split-T Management.
“My plan was to be patient and control the pace. I was able to capitalize on him being a bit slower then me,” said Pearson. “This win gets me back to where I need to be.”
“I’m blessed with this victory,” continued Pearson. “Nobody knows the trials I’ve gone through. If I can be someone that inspires, then I’ll be happy. I’m going to rest for a couple days and then get right back to the gym.”
The fight was the main event of a Golden Boy Promotions card on Golden Boy Fight Night on Facebook watch.
