QUINCY, Masse. (November 10, 2022) – Tidligere New England weltervægtsmester Mike Ohan, Jr. (16-1, 9 KOS) forbereder sig på sin potentielle karriereskiftende kamp i december 10th mod 2020 US. Olympiske Tiger Johnson (6-0, 4 KOS) på den berømte Madison Square Garden i New York.

Johnson vs. Ohan, Jr. er en planlagt 8-runders weltervægtskamp på et Top Rank-kort, ledet af en Heisman Night-kamp med Teofimo Lopez mod Jose Pedraza, som vil blive streamet live på ESPN+.

Ohan, Jr. er ikke overdrevent bekymret for at bekæmpe en meget hyped udsigt, der promoveres af begivenhedspromotor Top Rank,, i boksningens mekka på en meget større udsigtsplatform.

"Jeg vil omfavne det,"Åh, Jr. "Jeg har kæmpet mod mange topfyre i amatørerne som Jamaine Ortiz, der netop kæmpede mod Vasiliy Lomachenko. Jeg føler, at jeg hører til på øverste niveau med dem, men de begyndte at konkurrere tidligere end mig i amatørerne. Jeg var 16-17 og havde meget at indhente.

"Det er, hvad alle de år, hvor jeg har arbejdet så hårdt, har været for. Det har været en drøm for mig selv som barn, før jeg begyndte at bokse. Det begynder at betale sig; Jeg er nødt til at eksekvere spilleplanen på kampaften."

"Jeg kunne ikke være stoltere af Mike og det, han har opnået indtil videre i boksning,"Ohans promotor, Granite Chin-præsident Chris Traietti kommenterede. "Han er en fantastisk fyr med god arbejdsmoral, og han har et væld af hjerte. Han sprang over denne mulighed, da den blev præsenteret. Det er derfor, fyre kæmper; for forhåbentlig at få en chance for at brillere ved en begivenhed som denne i Madison Square Garden. Mike kværnede og kværnede, nu har han sin velfortjente mulighed på stjernestatus."

Ohan, Jr. er søn af en pensioneret pro bokser, (14-6-2, 11 KOS), der fungerede som sparringspartner for den store Marvelous Marvin Hagler.

Den 24-årige Johnson, kæmper ud af Cleveland, var en højt dekoreret US. amatørbokser, der var medlem af 2020 .USA's Olympiske Boksehold. Han vandt 2 gange USA's nationale mesterskaber (2016 & 2017), samt guldvinder ved den 2016 AIBA Youth World Boxing Championships, og 2014 USA junior-OL nationale mesterskaber.

"Han er en fantastisk fighter,"Åh, Jr. talte om sin kommende modstander. "Alt hvad han gør, han er fremragende til, ikke bare godt. Jeg skal medbringe mit A-spil for at bevise, at jeg hører til. Alle de store har tilpasset sig situationen, og det er det, jeg skal gøre. Jeg har lagt alt blodet i, sved og tårer. Uanset hvad han kaster, Jeg vil være klar."

At kæmpe i Madison Square Garden er det ultimative mødested for Ohan, Jr. sammen med de fleste kæmpere. Nogle vil måske føle, at kortene er stablet mod Ohan, Jr., men han er tydeligvis ikke bekymret for alt det tumult, der er forbundet med at kæmpe på MSG på ESPN+ mod eventarrangørens højt udråbte bokser.

»Det bliver bare mig og ham i ringen,"Åh, Jr. indgået. “Madison Square Garden er et historisk sted. Rocky Marciano, Sugar Ray Robinson ... alle de store har kæmpet der. Jeg elsker boksehistorie, og jeg er velsignet med at kæmpe der. Jeg bor tættere på New York City end ham, og jeg er sikker på, at folk vil komme ud for mig.

"I sidste ende, selv, alle vil vide, hvem jeg er. En imponerende præstation vil hæve min aktie, men jeg går i ringen for at vinde!"

Undefeated light heavyweight New Bedford Edet Mkapanam battling back from surgeries Granite Chin’s “Hometown Royalty” this Saturday in Bridgewater, MA (see attached with pictures)

QUINCY, Masse. (Maj 3, 2022) – Undefeated New Bedford (MA) light heavyweight prospect Edet Mkapanam (6-0, 5 KOS) is battling back from retina and shoulder surgeries that sidelined him 16 months before his successful ring return this past March.


The 27-year-old Mkapanam faces Scott “Bombz” Scott on the May 7th Hometown Royalty” card, presented by Granite Chin Promotions in association with Cappiello Boxing Promotions and Shearns Boxing Promotions, at Bridgewater Veterans Club in Bridgewater, Massachusetts (85 Cottage St.), marking the first professional boxing event ever held in that town.


Raised in Brockton, known as the “City of Champions, Mkapanam had an abbreviated amateur career (8-3), although he was a heavyweight winner in the 2017 Rocky Marciano Tournament, as well as runner-up a year later in the prestigious New England Golden Gloves Championships.


Mkapanam had back-to-back surgeries, starting with a torn ligament in his shoulder, followed by surgery to repair his retina in the right eye.


“I didn’t have much of an amateur career and I’ve been learning on the job (som en pro),” Mkapanam explained. “I learned in the gym sparring with some of the top fighters in New England like Peter Manfredo, Jr. and Mark Deluca. I mit sind, I wanted to continue fighting and I kept working hard in the gym while recovering. Some doctors said I shouldn’t fight again, so I upped my intensity in the gym, and when I was examined again the doctors said my eye was a lot better and I was cleared to fight. I had a tough training camp before my last fight, the first after my surgeries, and I wasn’t even thinking about my eye during that fight.”


Mkapanam looked relatively sharp in his March 19th comeback fight, stopping pro debut fighter Igor Pessoa in the third round of their fight in Derry, New Hampshire.
Nu, Edet is on a mission to make up for lost time.


“I’ve been working on my jab and some other things,"Sagde han. “My goal is to fight on bigger stages, which is one of the reasons I signed with (Granite Chin promoter) Chris Traietti. I respect Scott Lampert, but I’m on a whole different level in New England boxing, and I’m going to prove it this fight. I know Chris is going to get me opportunities to fight on bigger stages.”


“Edet was somebody I was interested in working with in the past, but then his injuries happened before we could formally get a deal together,” Granite Chin president Chris Traietti explained. “Once he reached out and told me he was cleared to fight again, I wasted no time making him an offer to sigh with Granite Chin. Edet is a great guy who works hard and wants to fight. We talked about a game plan for his career. We are both on the same page and you will be seeing him on a big stage in the very near future.”

Former New England Welterweight Champion Mike “Bad Man Ohan, Jr. (14-1, 8 KOS), of Holbrook, MA, headlines “Hometown Royalty” in the 8-round main event against Argentinian opponent Jose “El Chino” Aubel (8-9, 7 KOS).


Quincy (MA) lightweight Ryan “The Polish Prince” Kielczweski (30-6, 11 KOS), en 2008 National Golden Gloves silver medalist and 2-time New England Golden Gloves Champion, faces another Argentinian, Mario Lozano (18-5-1, 9 KOS), in the 8-round co-featured event.


Brockton welterweight prospect David Ribeiro makes his pro debut in a 4-round bout versus Joshua Zimmerman (0-8). Ribeiro was a celebrated amateur having won gold medals at the 2020 New England Golden Gloves, 2019 King of the Ring, and the regional Mike Tyson Tournament.


Fall River (MA) weltervægt Damon Towns (4-0, 3 KOS) meets Robert Bricks (0-9) i en 4-round Bout.

Atlanta middleweight Antonio Todd, Jr. Riding high after upsetting WBC No. 10 rated Hugo Centeno

Efterlad en kommentar
ANTONIO TODD PHOTO 2.jpg
QUINCY, Masse. (Januar 26, 2022) – Last Saturday night in Detroit, Atlanta middleweight Antonio Todd, Jr. registered his career-defining victory, upsetting World Boxing Council (WBC) Do Not. 10-rated Hugo “The Boss” Centeno, Jr. by way of a 10-round majority decision in the main event.

The 27-year-old Todd, fighting out of Atlanta, won on two of the three judges’ scorecards, 97-93 og 96-94, as the other had it a 95-95 tegne. More impressive was Todd defeating a fighter who is under contract to the event promoter, Dmitriy Salita.

“It was the biggest win of my career, hidtil,” Todd said. “It means a lot for my career in terms of taking me to the next level. I feel that I won the fight by unanimous decision and, if he hadn’t started moving around, I could have stopped him. But this is boxing, you need to take chances to be great.

“I want to fight anybody, anybody in the 160-pound division, fighting bigger names on television. Jeg er klar nu! I think real fighters or those confident in their skills will be the guys who step up. We do have a couple names in mind.”

Todd is promoted by rising New England-based Granite Chin Promotions, owned, and operated by Chris Traietti.

“The way Antonio handled himself throughout the whole process leading up to the Centano fight is a testament to his character and drive,” Traietti commented. “At first, the fight was on, then off, then back on again. Derefter, Centeno was over the weight limit. Despite all of this, Antonio and his trainer, Lionel Harris, just stayed focused on the fighting part of all this, leaving the behind-the-scenes stuff to me, and he delivered a career-defining performance. For 10 rounds he brought pressure, used his world-class jab, and pulled off a beautiful complete win.”
Todd concluded, “I love being promoted by Chris. It’s great being part of his Granite Chin team and him being part of my team.”

Granite Chin Promotions returns to Massachusetts Nelson Perez vs. Tyrone Luckey to headline “Showcase” Feb. 26th at Sheraton Hotel in Framingham, MA

Efterlad en kommentar

QUINCY, Masse. (Januar 3, 2022) – Granite Chin Promotions has announced its first event of 2022, “Showcase,” scheduled on Saturday night, Februar 26th, at Sheraton Hotel in Framingham, Massachusetts.

“Showcase” will mark Granite Chin’s first event in Massachusetts in more than 2 år, as well as being only the second professional boxing show ever in Framingham, which is located 23 miles west of Boston.

“I am excited to be coming back to Massachusetts,” Granite Chin president Chris Traietti said. “Between changes occurring with the commission, then COVID, I just felt like it was a good time to step away for a bit, head up to New Hampshire and let things sort of settle in Massachusetts. Now that things are sort of back to normal, I feel like the time is right to bring our great club-show boxing back to Massachusetts. This card is going to be highly competitive from top to bottom. I have the roster now where I can both develop fighters and put on high quality local shows. 2020 was about making good relationships with other promoters and matchmakers; 2021 about developing a quality roster and keeping guys busy during a pandemic. 2022 is going to be geared towards becoming the face of quality local boxing shows and getting Granite Chin fighters on high-level, world-class cards all across the country.”

The 8-round main event will pit local favorite Nelson “Chino” Perez (5-0, 2 KOS) against New Jersey veteran super lightweight Tyrone “Hands of Stone” Luckey (15-16-4, 11 KOS).

Perez is a native of Puerto Rico who lives in Marlboro (MA), which borders Framingham. A past New England Golden Gloves champion as an amateur, Perez is coming off a dominating 4-round unanimous decision victory (40-34 X 3) December 4th against Raymundo Rios Cardies on a DAZN card in Manchester, New Hampshire. Perez will be fighting in his first scheduled 8-round bout.

Luckey, fighting out of Manahawkin, NJ, is the reigning ABF USA Mid-American Super Lightweight Champion. The dangerous Luckey has been a gatekeeper of lightweight up to welterweight divisions having fought top prospects such as Mike Ohan, Jr. Jamaine Ortiz, Tyler Tomlin, and Frank Martin. Luckey has recent back-to-back victories against previously unbeaten Eduardo Aquilar.

Hot welterweight prospect Denzel “Double Impact” Whitley (7-0, 5 KOS), of Holyoke (MA), faces Alfred “Keenan” Raymond (1-0) in the 6-round co-featured event.

Denzel, the latest member of the “Fightin’ Whitley family,” is trained by his father and uncle, henholdsvis, Derrick and Darrin, who were respected pro fighters in New England.

Fighting out of Warwick, Rhode Island, the 31-year-old Raymond made his pro debut this past November 13th, upsetting previously undefeated Julien Baptiste (3-0) by way of a 4-round split decision.

Yderligere anfald vil blive annonceret snart. Kort kan ændres.

Tickets will soon be available for purchase atwww.TicketRiver.com (Søg: SHOWCASE). Billetpriser er $50.00 (General Seating), $75.00 (Ringside), og $1,000.00 for a table of 10.

New England weltervægtsmester Mike Ohan, Jr. forbereder sig på 2022 breakout "Championship Road, November. 13 i Hampton, NH

QUINCY, Masse. (November 1, 2021) – Granite Chin Promotions seneste underskriver, New Englands weltervægtsmester Mike "Bad Boy" Ohan (13-1, 7 KOS), vil lukke ud 2021 overskriften "Championship Road,” lørdag aften, November 13, streames live lørdag aften, November 13, påbxngtv.com, fra The Rim i Hampton, New Hampshire.

Ohan, kæmper ud af Holbrook (MA), vil være i sin første planlagte 10-runders kamp mod den mexicanske udfordrer Israel "Filipino Tigre" Rojas (14-24, 5 KOS) i en super letvægter, kamp uden titel.

“Ti runder betyder meget for mig," sagde Ohan. "Det er noget, jeg har set hele mit liv, fordi alle legender kæmpede med 10-rounders. Dette er specielt for mig. Jeg er klar til at gå, og jeg vil udklasse min modstander."

Ohan erobrede den ledige New England-titel i november sidste år, da han vandt en enstemmig beslutning i 8 runder over Ryan Dibartolomeo, efterfulgt af et vellykket titelforsvar i sin sidste kamp i juni, da udfordreren Tyrone Luckey trak sig efter de fem runder.

New England-titlen er et springbræt, og næste år føler jeg, at jeg kan samle flere titelbælter næste år," han tilføjede. "Jeg skrev under med Chris (Traietti, formand for Granite Chin Promotions) fordi jeg vil i store kampe. Jeg kan ikke vente til denne kamp, Jeg er allerede i topform. To fyre, jeg for nylig besejrede, slog ubesejrede modstandere ud, (Eric) Palmer (WSD6 vs. 8-0-1 Ruddicus Livsey) og Luckey (WKO1 og WKO6 vs. 7-0-1 Eduardo Aguilar)."

En tidligere 2-dobbelt Southern New England Golden Gloves-mester, den nu 27-årige Ohan er søn af en tidligere prizefighter, mellemvægt Mike Ohan (14-6-2, 11 KOs – 1983-95), der sparrede "Marvelous" Marvin Hagler. Ohan, Jrs bedstefar på sin mors side boksede også.

”Jeg så altid op til min far som en fighter,"Ohan., Jr. nævnte, »men han ville ikke have, at jeg skulle bokse. Jeg startede sent og gik ikke i fitnesscenter, før jeg var 16 at hjælpe med at holde sig ude af problemer. Min far støtter, og han går til mine kampe. Jeg blev forelsket i boksning med det samme, og jeg føler mig endnu stærkere ved det i dag."

Ohans fødenavn er Ohanian, men han er irsk. "Det ligger i mit blod,”Forklarede han. ”Det går tilbage til de gamle barkno-dage. Min far er irsk på sin mors side, Armensk på sin fars. Min bedstemor er irsk på begge sider. Så, Jeg har en masse irsk i mig fra mine forældre.”
