КУИНСИ, Маса. (Ноември 10, 2022) – Former New England Welterweight Champion Mike Ohan, Jr. (16-1, 9 Нокаута) is preparing for his potential career-changing fight on December 10тата срещу 2020 U.S. Olympian Tiger Johnson (6-0, 4 Нокаута) най-известния площад Madison градина в New York City.

Johnson срещу. Ohan, Jr. is a scheduled 8-round welterweight match on a Top Rank card, headlined by a Heisman Night fight featuring Teofimo Lopez against Jose Pedraza, which will be streamed live on ESPN+.

Ohan, Jr. isn’t overly concerned about fighting a much-hyped prospect, who is promoted by event promoter Top Rank,, at the mecca of boxing on a much larger viewing platform.

“I’ll embrace it,” Ohan, Jr. “I’ve fought a lot of top guys in the amateurs like Jamaine Ortiz, who just fought Vasiliy Lomachenko. I feel like I belong at the top level with them, but they started competing earlier than me in the amateurs. Бях 16-17 and had a lot of catching up to do.

“This is what all the years of me working so hard has been for. It’s been a dream of mine even as a kid, before I started boxing. It’s starting to payoff; I need to executive the game plan on fight night.”

“I couldn’t be prouder of Mike and what he has accomplished so far in boxing,” Ohan’s promoter, Granite Chin president Chris Traietti commented. “He’s a great guy with great work ethic, and he has a ton of heart. He jumped all over this opportunity when it was presented. This is why guys fight; to hopefully get a chance to shine at an event like this at Madison Square Garden. Mike grinded and grinded, now he has his well-deserved opportunity at stardom.”

Ohan, Jr. is the son of a retired pro boxer, (14-6-2, 11 Нокаута), who served as a sparring partner for the great Marvelous Marvin Hagler.

The 24-year-old Johnson, fighting out of Cleveland, е силно декорирани U.S. amateur boxer who was a member of the 2020 .САЩ олимпийски Бокс Екип. He was a 2-time winner of the USA National Championships (2016 & 2017), както и златен медалист в 2016 AIBA Youth World Boxing Championships, и 2014 USA Junior Olympic National Championships.

„Той е страхотен боец,” Ohan, Jr. talked about his upcoming opponent. “Everything he does, he’s excellent at, not just good. I have to bring my A game to prove I belong. All the greats have adjusted to the situation and that’s what I have to do. I’ve put in all the blood, пот и сълзи. Whatever he throws, Ще бъда готов. "

Fighting in Madison Square Garden is the ultimate venue for Ohan, Jr. along with most fighters. Some may feel that the cards are stacked against Ohan, Jr., but he clearly isn’t worried about all the hoopla associated with fighting at MSG on ESPN+ against the event promoter’s highly touted boxer.

“It’s just going to be me and him in the ring,” Ohan, Jr. сключено. “Madison Square Garden is an historic place. Rocky Marciano, Sugar Ray Robinson…all the greats have fought there. I love boxing history and I’m blessed to be fighting there. I do live closer to New York City than him and I’m sure people will come out for me.

"В края на деня, въпреки че, everybody will know who I am. An impressive performance will raise my stock, but I’m going in the ring to win!"

Израснал в Броктън, известен като „Градът на шампионите, Мкапанам имаше съкратена аматьорска кариера (8-3), въпреки че беше победител в тежка категория в 2017 Турнир Rocky Marciano, както и подгласник година по-късно в престижния шампионат на Нова Англия Golden Gloves.


Мкапанам имаше операции гръб до гръб, започвайки със скъсана връзка на рамото, последвано от операция за възстановяване на ретината на дясното око.


„Нямах много аматьорска кариера и се учех по време на работа (като про),“, обясни Мкапанам. „Във фитнеса се научих да правя спаринги с някои от най-добрите бойци в Нова Англия като Питър Манфредо, Jr. и Марк Делука. В съзнанието ми, Исках да продължа да се бия и продължих да работя усилено във фитнеса, докато се възстановявах. Някои лекари казаха, че не трябва да се бия отново, така че увеличих интензивността си във фитнеса, и когато ме прегледаха отново, лекарите казаха, че окото ми е много по-добре и имах разрешение да се бия. Имах тежък тренировъчен лагер преди последната си битка, първата след моите операции, и дори не мислех за окото си по време на тази битка.


Мкапанам изглеждаше сравнително остър в своя марш 19тата завръщане битка, спирайки дебютиращия професионалист Игор Песоа в третия кръг на битката им в Дери, New Hampshire.
Сега, Едет е на мисия да навакса пропуснатото време.


„Работих върху удара си и някои други неща,"Той каза. „Целта ми е да се бия на по-големи сцени, което е една от причините да подпиша с (Гранит Chin промотор) Крис Траети. Уважавам Скот Лампърт, но съм на съвсем различно ниво в бокса на Нова Англия, и ще го докажа в тази битка. Знам, че Крис ще ми осигури възможности да се бия на по-големи сцени.”


„Едет беше човек, с когото се интересувах да работя в миналото, но тогава нараняванията му се случиха, преди да можем официално да сключим сделка,“, обясни президентът на Granite Chin Крис Трайети. „Веднъж той протегна ръка и ми каза, че има разрешение да се бие отново, Без да губя време му направих предложение да въздиша с гранитна брадичка. Едет е страхотно момче, което работи здраво и иска да се бори. Говорихме за план за играта му в кариерата. И двамата сме на една страница и ще го видите на голяма сцена в много близко бъдеще.”

Бившият шампион на Нова Англия в полусредна категория Майк „Лошият човек Охан, Jr. (14-1, 8 Нокаута), от Холбрук, MA, заглавия „Hometown Royalty“ в основното събитие от 8 рунда срещу аржентинския опонент Хосе „Ел Чино“ Аубел (8-9, 7 Нокаута).


Quincy (MA) лек Райън „Полският принц“ Келчвески (30-6, 11 Нокаута), а 2008 Национален сребърен медалист от Golden Gloves и двукратен шампион от Нова Англия Golden Gloves, се изправя срещу друг аржентинец, Марио Лозано (18-5-1, 9 Нокаута), в съвместното събитие от 8 кръга.


Броктън, перспективата за полусредна категория Дейвид Рибейро прави своя професионален дебют в битка от 4 рунда срещу Джошуа Цимерман (0-8). Рибейро беше известен аматьор, спечелил златни медали на 2020 New England Златни ръкавици, 2019 Кралят на Пръстена, и регионалния турнир на Майк Тайсън.


Фол Ривър (MA) Деймън Таунс в полусредна категория (4-0, 3 Нокаута) среща Робърт Брикс (0-9) в 4-кръг мач.

My father’s supportive and he goes to my fights. I fell in love with boxing right away and I feel even stronger about it today.”

Ohan’s birth name is Ohanian, but he is Irish. “It’s in my blood," той обясни. “It goes back to the old bare-knuckle days. My father is Irish on his mother’s side, Armenian on his father’s. My grandmother is Irish on both sides. Така, I have a lot of Irish in me from my parents.”
