MULVANE, Kansas (Mars 25, 2017) — A future star was born last night as 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez turned in a stellar performance in his professional debut, stoppa Pat “Slacks” Gutierrez in the fourth round of the “KO Night Boxing: History Begins” main event, which aired live on CBS Sports Network from Kansas Star Arena in Mulvane, Kansas.
“KO Night Boxing: History Begins” was presented by KO Night Boxing LLC, in association with Kansas Star Casino, and sponsored by Miller Lite, Mel Hambelton FORD and TITLE Boxing.
The large, hometown crowd of more than 3,100 had Hernandez (1-0, 1 KO) pumped to start the fight, in which he quickly established himself as the clear aggressor. The 21-year-old settled down in the second, showing his full arsenal of punches, as he banged Gutierrez’ body and also landed effectively upstairs.
Hernandez cut off the ring in the third, often trapping Gutierrez (0-3) on the ropes, where he unloaded punishing punches that started to take its toll on the gutsy Las Vegas fighter. Hernandez’ dominance continued in the fourth, even as he surprisingly switched from orthodox to southpaw stance, hurting Gutierrez until his corner asked the referee to halt the action.
Nico Hernandez (R) pounded Pat Gutierrez
“It doesn’t get better than this,” a beaming Hernandez said after the fight. “It means so much for me to bring boxing to Wichita, to all of Kansas, for these awesome fans. I started switching up a little because it was worked. I’d like to get back fighting again om två månader.
“I wasn’t to thank KO Night Boxing. This was the way I pictured it. As I was waiting in the tunnel, I could hear the crowd chanting my name. This was a great night of boxing. I want to bring more shows here.
“Fighting här i kväll was much different than fighting in the Olympics (in Brazil). I kväll they were cheering me, they booed me at the Olympics no matter who I fought because I was an American.”
I co-funktionen, gifted New Haven (CT) Southpaw Tramaine “The Mighty Midget” Williams improved his undefeated record to 10-0 (3 Kos), displaying special ring skills on his way to an impressive eight-round unanimous decision over tough Eduardo “Åska” Garza (6-2, 2 Kos).
A classic boxer, Williams also showed some pop i kväll, dropping Garza twice, once in the first round and again in the third. Williams, who made his promotional debut for Roc Nation Sports, rolled to victory by scores of 79-71 två gånger och 78-72.
Tramaine Williams (R) outclassed Eduardo Garza
“I performance okay,” Williams commented. “The last two rounds I was a little winded but I hadn’t been in the ring for two years. We knew he dropped his chin when he jabbed; I followed the game plan and it worked. He fought his butt off, he didn’t come to lose. Nu, Jag vill slåss bäst. Let’s go!”
Relentless junior middleweight Neeco “Rooster” Macias (15-0, 8 Kos), fighting out of Tehachapi, Kalifornien, enhanced his reputation as a rising contender on the regional scene, assaulting his game Mexican foe, Cesar Soriano (26-35-1, 16 Kos), from the opening bell until the very end for a hard-fought win by eight-round unanimous decision.
A southpaw known for his non-stop motor, Macias connected with punches thrown from every conceivable angle, leaving Soriano no room to move or time to catch his wind, to win by scores of 80-71, 79-72, 78-73).
Neeco Macias had too much for Cesar Soriano
“I feel like I could have done better,” Macias admitted. “My opponent came to fight eight rounds and we respect for each other. Jag lär mig fortfarande. Everybody has a game plan until they get hit. I didn’t move like I should have. I thank my opponent for giving me a fight I can learn from.

“I was surprised he took so many punches, but he’s a veteran and I didn’t underestimate him. I trained hard and needed every bit of it. I’m getting better and I’m coming back strong to make boxing more exciting.”

Fighting for the first time since last August, Kansas favorite Jeff Page, Jr. (18-3, 12 Kos) dropped Missouri veteran Steve “The Spoiler” Walker (26-34-1, 16 Kos) three times for a first-round technical knockout victory in a fight contested at a 186-pounds catchweight.
In a non-title fight, Kansas State junior middleweight champion Efrain Morales (5-0, 2 Kos) förblev obesegrad, stopping fellow Kansan Robert Alexander Seyan (2-6, 2 Kos) i öppningsrundan.
Kansas featherweight Eric Vargas (2-0, 1 KO) pitched a shutout, winning all four rounds against pro-debuting Kevin “Indio” Garcia.

2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez Joins elite group Saturday night in pro debut “KO Night Boxing: History Begins”

PRESSMEDDELANDE
Mars 25 on CBS Sports Network live from Kansas Star Arena

MULVANE, Kansas (Mars 20, 2017) –– 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez will join an elite group denna lördag night as he makes his professional debut in the “KO Night Boxing: History Begins” main event, vädring (9 p.m. OCH / 6 p.m. PT) on CBS Sports Network live from Kansas Star Arena in Mulvane, Kansas.
“KO Night Boxing: History Begins” is presented by KO Night Boxing LLC, in association with Kansas Star Casino, and sponsored by Miller Lite, Mel Hambelton FORD and TITLE Boxing.
In his six-round bout against upset-minded Las Vegas (NV) flyweight Patrick Gutierrez (0-2), Wichita-native Hernandez will become only the fourth United States Olympic medalist in the last 40 years to make his pro debut at home in a nationally televised main event.
The other three members of this special quartet, all Olympic gold medalists and pro debut winners, include Hall of Famer “Socker” Ray Leonard (Februari. 5, 1977, in Baltimore, MD, champion två-tiden världsmästare Mark Breland och världstitelutmanare Paul “Super Fly” Gonzales.
“It’s a great feeling,” the 21-year-old Hernandez said from training camp. “I am feeling some pressure but, once I’m in the ring, everything goes away. There definitely is some pressure on me because I’m fighting where everybody knows me in my hometown. Så, Jag kan inte förlora. At the Olympics, all the Americans there gave me more energy to win. I didn’t want to lose in front of my people. Fighting at home will push me to do my best.
“I’m not really focused on fighting on national television. I’m going out there to put on a boxing clinic and, if the knockout comes, it comes. If it happens, it happens, but not going in there looking for a knockout. I’m used to fighting only three rounds (som amatör) men, as the fight goes on, I’ve always gotten better. Six rounds do give me more time to work on my opponent and do more damage.”

The 25-year-old Macias (14-0, 8 Kos), fighting out of Palm Desert, Kalifornien, tar på “grindvakt” Soriano (26-34-1, 16 Kos) in the opening televised bout. The extremely aggressive fighting Macias, who is the reigning World Boxing Council’s (WBC) United States junior middleweight champion, is currently ranked No. 13 by the United States Boxing Association (USBA).
Kortfattat, Macias is an energized-bunny boxer, always going forward, throwing an arsenal of punches from every conceivable angle. His fan-friendly style, in addition to his rooster persona, makes him an instant favorite wherever he fights. Kansas fans there to support Hernandez will probably take to Macias before the first bell.
“I never chose my nickname,” Macias explained. “I fought a lot in the amateurs between Los Angeles and Fresno, where there are a lot of Latino fans. They started calling me, Gallo, which is Spanish for Rooster. In my fourth fight, I did a little rooster dance and scratched. Sedan, I was more dramatic, and eventually I started crowing. I crow and scratch before, during and after my fights, so I better live up to my nickname and keep winning.
“We don’t just focus on techniques on camp, I go through some insane, hardcore workouts. Everybody gets tired in the ring but I train very hard and always find my second wind during fights because I train so hard. I’ve been doing it this way for the past five years. I have a good coach, my father (al), who pushes me. I never reach a plateau in workouts. We even steal workouts from other gyms. Men, boxing is 80-percent mental and with the Adrenalin rush from fighting in front of large crowds, mentalt, I have to be strong to physically do what I do in the ring.”
Macias is getting close to breaking into the world ratings. Two of his last three fights have been shown on CBS Sports Network, both live from Las Vegas, including his USNBC-winning fight against previously undefeated Rolando Garza (9-0), the former member of the Mexican National Boxing Team. Macias took the fight to Garza fight from the opening bell, never letting up during this action-packed fight, until the referee stopped the fight in the fifth round.
“Everybody hits the wall and I did against Garza in the fourth round,” Macias said, “but I got my second wind and finished him off in the fifth. I’ve gotten better since that fight, alltför. I’m not a Floyd (Mayweather Jr.)-like fighter, so I’ve been working on my defense, keeping my hands high, elbows close to my body. I’m smothering opponents now, not giving them leverage, and I haven’t been getting cut like I did in my earlier fights.
“I’m going to show fight smarts early, fighting in flurries and pressuring him inside to make him uncomfortable, and then wear him down for the middle and late rounds. The ‘Rooster’ is going to pressure him; tap, tap, tap to the body, until things settle down and then start digging punches to his head and body. I’m doing everything to come out of this fight 15-0.”
Soriano has won his last two fights. He is the former Fecarbox and WBC Mundo Hispano lightweight champ. As a “grindvakt,” he has tested the likes of world title challengers Jean Ware och Ionut Dan Ion, as well as top contenders such as Kevin Bizier och Logan McGuinness.
Biljettpriserna är $115.00 (ringsiden, rader 1 & 2), $75.00 (floor seats, rader 3-5), $60.00 (floor seats, floor rows after 1-5), $35.00 (lower bowl) och $25.00 (upper bowl). Suites seating up to 22 people are available to purchase for $2,500 (includes non-alcohol beverages and food).

BROOKLYN (Mars 5, 2017) – Keith Thurman är den förenade välvärdets världsmästare.
Thurman (28-0, 22 Kos) förenade boxningens glamourdivision med en seger med splitbeslut Danny Garcia (33-1, 19 Kos) på lördag, försvarar sitt WBA-bälte och plockade upp Garcias WBC-krona på boxningens största scen i primetime på CBS från Barclays Center, hemmet till BROOKLYN BOXING ™.
Händelsen, som producerades av SHOWTIME Sports® för CBS Television Network, markerade det högst besökta boxningsevenemanget i Barclays Center historia med 16,533 fans bevittnar bara 10th enhet i divisionens historia.
Den nära affären, vilket var bara tredje gången som oslagna kämpar förenade divisionen med 147 pund, fick poäng 116-112 Thurman, 115-113 Thurman och 115-113 Garcia.
SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING på CBS huvudevenemang, som presenterades av Premier Boxing Champions, var en berättelse om effektiv aggression och ringgeneralskap. Thurman kom ut och svängde och var den livligare och mer exakta fighter i nio av 12 rundor. “One Time” Thurman var mer taktisk under den andra halvan av kampen, utnyttjar lateral rörelse och arbetar med sin jab. Garcia tog fart och var mer aktiv i slutrundorna, men det var för lite för sent för den tidigare obesegrade infödda i Philadelphia.
“Jag trodde att jag slog ut honom.” Said Thurman, som troligen fick en plats på boxningens mytiska pund-för-pund-lista med den imponerande segern. “Jag trodde att det var en tydlig seger, men Danny kom att slåss. Jag visste när den delades och jag hade så stor spridning, Jag visste att det måste gå till mig.
“Jag gav inte striden. Jag kände att vi hade en bra ledning, vi kunde svalna. Jag kände att vi kontrollerade tre minuters intervaller varje omgång. Mitt försvar var effektivt – han landade inte.”
En tidigare förenad mästare på 140 pund, Garcia siktade på att bli den första kämpen i historien som förena titlar på 140 och 147 pounds.
“Jag kom kort i kväll,” Said Garcia, som gick in i anfallet med en 7-0 rekord i världstitelutfall. “Jag trodde att jag var aggressorn. Jag trodde att jag pressade takten. Men det gick inte min väg.
“Jag trodde att jag vann och jag pressade kampen. Men det är vad det är. Jag kommer starkt tillbaka som en riktig mästare. Jag skulle älska en ommatch för att få dessa titlar.”
SHOWTIME Sportanalytiker och inofficiell poängsnabb Steve Farhood gjorde kampen 116-112 för Thurman.

“Jag betade honom med jabben. Jag visste att han skulle komma med de stora skotten tidigt,” Lubin sa till reportern Jim Gray. “Jag satte några knep på honom, Jag landade så överhand och det var natt-natt. Jag satte ner mina händer för att beta honom i, Jag gjorde en huk och sedan var det natt-natt. Jag var redo att följa upp med en rättighet men han var redan ute.”
På bara 21-årig, Lubin har nu en möjlighet att bli den yngsta världsmästaren i boxning idag.
“Det skulle betyda mycket för mig; det skulle betyda mycket för Orlando, Florida,” Sa Lubin. “Det här är min andra gång som slår ut någon framför Ray Leonard. Han är en av mina favoritkämpar genom tiderna. Det är en ära att göra detta på CBS.”
