Knock Out Night @ the D – Mei 21 2016
Haney (hieronder afgebeeld) is a 7-time national amateur champion, who captured a gold medal at the 2015 Jeugd Wereldkampioen, but he was unable to try-out for the 2016 U.S. Olympic Boxing Team because of his age. When headgear was eliminated from Olympic boxing competition, the minimum age for a U.S. boxer to compete in the Olympics was changed to 19, so Haney decided to turn pro at the age of 17 rather than wait four more years. Als eerste, hoewel, he had a problem getting licensed in the U.S.
After having four successful fights in Tijuana, Mexico, Haney’s license was approved by the Nevada Athletic Commission and he won an impressive 4-round decision over Rafael Vazquez this past April 9th op de Manny-Pacauiao-Timothy Bradley IIIshow at MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Fighting May 21st on CBS Sports Network promises to be the start of something very special for Haney.
It really means a lot to me fighting on national television for the first time,” Haney said between workouts. “I’m excited to have my friends from all over be able to watch me fight on TV. I’m going to make a statement that nigh that I’m the next big star. I’m going to show everyone my talents.
Haney, natuurlijk, hasn’t graduated from high school yet. He’s been home schooled since the seventh grade, studying between his training responsibilities as a prizefighter: morning run, afternoon strength and conditioning, and full boxing workouts during the evening.
What can fans expect to see when they watch Haney in the ring? “Ik ben een boxer-puncher; strong and fast,” Haney added. “I’m a balanced fighter who can do everything. Ik ben alleen 17 and still have a long way to go. Elke dag, my head trainer, Floyd Mayweather, Sr., works with me to relax more, walk-down my opponent and take my timeit’s not the amateurs anymoreto breakdown my opponent.
Another undefeated fighter, Virginia featherweight JerrenHardknocksCochran (11-0-1, 4 KO), faces former WBC Youth International titlist Tony Lopez (10-1, 3 KO), van Dallas, in the 6-round televisionswing bout.
Also scheduled to fight on the undercard in 4-round bouts are Las Vegas junior lightweight Randy Moreno (2-0, 1 KO) vs. Texan Chris Turtun (1-2), and Las Vegas welterweight JeremyJ-FlashNichols (3-0, 2 KO) vs. TBA.

Van Heerden (23-1-1, 12 KO), fighting out of Santa Monica, California by way of South Africa, used his 3-inch height advantage against Claggett (23-3-1, 16 KO), the Canadian champion from Calgary, Alberta.
Neither fighter was hurt during the fight, in which there were continual back-and-forth exchanges of stinging combinations. Claggett battled to apply pressure in order to fight on the inside, while Van Heerden fought effectively from the outside.
The two evenly-matched welterweights patiently waited for the official announcement: 95-95 en 97-93 twice for Van Heerden.
I knew I won this fight, 120-procent, but I knew it was close,” Van Heerden commented. “We’re both winners vanavond because of it was so close and we entertained the crowd. Me and Claggett entertained the crowd…..we delivered. I’ve been through so much and the lord helped me get this win. I look forward to a rematch, but I want to move forward.

Macias thoroughly dominated the action, firing non-stop shots from every conceivable angle. His unrelenting pressure enabled Macias, whose come-forward approach made him an instant fan favorite, to control the fight from start to finish for a unanimous decision.
I knew he was going to be the toughest fighter I’ve fought,” Macias said. “I give Ponce much respect. We wanted to give fans a good show.
Baltimore welterweight Malik “Alpinist” Hawkins (7-0, 6 KO) gaf Errol “Spyda” Sidney (6-2-2, 2 KO) a beating, fully displaying his arsenal of punches, hurting his gutsy opponent on several occasions. Hawkins’ aggressive style early in the fight broke-down Sidney, who was nearly finished at the end of the fourth and fifth rounds. Hawkins trapped Sidney a neutral corner at the start of the sixth round and a powerful uppercut sent Sidney down to a knee. Sidney beat referee Jay Nady‘s count but the veteran official had seen enough and he halted the bout 1:02 into the sixth.
We’re back,” Hawkins proclaimed after the bout. I’d give myself an 8 ½ this fight.
