FNU Combat Sports Show Featuring Ivan “La Bestia” Baranchyk

Deja un comentario

Juan “La Bestia” Baranchyk (15-0, 10 KOs) joins the broadcast tonight to talk about his recent war on ShoBox with Abel Ramos (17-2-2, 12 KOs). Baranchyk launched an incredible effort in the later rounds to hand Ramos his second professional loss and establish himself as a spirited, tough-as-nails brawler. Some experts claimed the fight was one of the most entertaining bouts in the 17-year history of the ShoBox series. Tom, Tony and Rich discuss the fight, other highlights of Ivan’s career, and get Baranchyk to explain how his early start in Jiu Jitsu eventually led him to the Sweet Science. The 24-year-old is already solidifying his legend, which explains why he points to “Hierro” Mike Tyson as one of his role models in the sport of boxing.

 

Tom, Tony and Rich also discuss the latest Mayweather/MacGregor news, an odd suspension of an MMA fighter for going after his opponent’s corner man, the calling off of Chris Brown vs. Soulja Boy, and Roy Jones Jr. re-establishing his goal of fighting Anderson Silva in a boxing match (he now wants it to be on the Mayweather/MacGregor undercard).

 

We also recap last week’s combat sports events and preview Bellator 173 and this week’s upcoming boxing matches.

PENSAMIENTOS FINALES

Chris Pearson

 

On fighting Justin DeLoach…

“I have had my back against the wall before. I know how it feels. I perform at my best when I have my back against the wall. I know he’s a talented fighter and that he has power in both hands, but I also know that he looks shaky when he gets cracked. He’s an athletic guy, he’s fast and moves well, but I’m the more skillful fighter.

 

“DeLoach makes a lot of mistakes in the ring. I’m going to take advantage of that. He’s never been against a guy like me. He won’t pass through me. I’m simply the better fighter here.

 

“I have the better jab and I have the pedigree. I’m disciplined and patient. You’ll see mañana noche, DeLoach is in for a surprise. The only way this kid beats me is if I’m going with the wrong strategy, but I know I won’t. As far as skill for skill, I know I’m at a different level.”

 

En el campo de entrenamiento ...

“I’ve been in camp since April last year—almost a year. I’m not concerned in the very least about making weight. I woke up this morning at 152 libra. I learned from my mistakes. Every fight that I’ve looked mediocre it’s been because I kill myself making the weight.”

On his loss against Eric Walker…

“I struggled to make weight for my fight against Walker. I had to lose 20 libra en 10 día. I waited until the last minute to make weight and I paid the price. Yo no tenía piernas. I had him in the position I wanted him, but I had no energy to close the deal. I couldn’t deliver. I lost that fight on the scale. I learned my lesson. It won’t happen again.”

En mañana night’s matchup…

“I don’t think it’s going to be a boxing match for long. Once one of us gets comfortable with the range and believe we have the advantage, we are going to start opening up more. If he comes up a little hotter, I believe my skills are going to dictate the pace and make adjustments as we go. Boxing is the sweet science but is not rocket science. You get in there and you find the advantage. You do what you have to do, adjust and get the win.”

Justin DeLoach

On working with his new trainer, Lucius Robinson…

“I had some differences with my previous trainer [Paul Williams]. I wanted more of the mental side of training, not only the physical. We just had different philosophies so I decided to change trainers.

 

“I’m training with Lucius Robinson now and it’s a big change—psychologically and philosophically. I’m really breaking down what I’m doing in the ring. I’m not just going in there to fight. As a young fighter you get in the ring and you just fight, but you have to do more than that. I’m learning how to use my head in the ring. When I’m hitting you, I know why I’m hitting you, where I’m hitting you. I know what I’m going to do.

 

“Learning the mental side of my sport really took me to another level. Anybody can get in there and get knocked out—that’s why I had my first loss—but who can really go in there and do what Floyd does? Break an opponent down in the later rounds. Master the sweet science. That’s the biggest change I had in my career, to learn the mental side of the sport.”

 

On his last three fights…

“I fought three undefeated prospect last year and I beat them. Luche Junior Castillo quien tiene poder en ambas manos. I went in there, I did my thing and I outclassed him. I got the knockout over Dillon Cocine y luego Dominique Dolton, who is a respectable opponent. I had a heck of a year.”

On his fight against Dominique Dolton…

“It was something that came together last minute. I was supposed to fight Chris Pearson but he got injured. I really appreciate the opportunity of fighting Dolton because a lot of up-and-comers don’t have the opportunity to fight a guy like that. Dolton was like a championship fight for me. He taught me a lot and took me to a whole different level. He was a replacement opponent, and my God, he’s a hell of a fighter.”

 

On his KO over Dillon Cook on ShoBox…

“It’s funny. I’m more of a boxer than a puncher. I don’t look for the knockout. Me gusta boxear. I think of myself as a boxer-puncher. I feel my opponents don’t usually know how much power I have. They underestimate me and I’m OK with that. My power catches them off balance.”

On fighting a southpaw…

“When you fight a southpaw, there are only two people you can study: Floyd Mayweather y Roy Jones Jr. If you watch tape on them you can learn a lot. It can help you develop your skills. I did my homework. I know exactly what I’m going to do mañana."

 

On making weight…

“I never had a problem making weight. My body feels good. When I was with Ronnie Shields at the beginning of my career, I learned that if I take care of my weight early on, you can concentrate on training for the fight. Así, eso es lo que hago. I make weight early and then I train hand to fight my opponent.”

 

Saul Rodriguez

 

En de mañana fight against Oscar Bravo…

“I want to look good. If I focus on dictating the pace for this fight, the knockout will come. My punches will keep on coming and I eventually will get some damage done. I’ll drop him and then, I’ll stop him.

 

“I always look for the knockout. It’s just more satisfying for me. I like KOs, but I’ll be patient. I feel that Bravo is tailor-made for me. Nunca ha sido detenido. So I want to stop him. No me mal, I won’t be reckless. But if he’s there for me to punch, I’ll punch him and I’ll go for the knockout.”

 

On changing promoters…

“Top Rank wanted to sign me again, but it was my decision to leave. I felt I was not treated well. I felt that I wasn’t getting the opportunities I deserved. So I decided to sign with Floyd, and here I am, fighting on SHOWTIME. It was a good move.”

 

On sparring with Mikey Garcia…

“I’ve sparred with Mikey Garcia for years. He got me ready for almost every professional fight I’ve had. I would say we’ve sparred over 100 rondas. He aprendido mucho de él. I think that having him as a sparring partner it’s been a difference maker for me. It’s made me a better fighter.”

On what’s next…

“I’m going to get a title at 130 first and then I’ll move up in weight. I’d like to fight Miguel Berchelt—the guy that just beat Vargas. Gervonta Davis is at that weight too. I’ll meet him down the road. I’m more interested in unifying. I want to get the WBC title and then I want to go for the IBF.”

 

Oscar Bravo

En el campo de entrenamiento ...

“I’ve been training in Floyd’s gym in Vegas. We were in training camp for a while. Yo creo que 135 is my best weight to fight at.”

 

En su oponente, Saul Rodriguez…

"Es un buen luchador. He’s a young fighter and hasn’t been in the gym with the experienced fighters like I have. He throws wild punches. Si lo hace, I will make him pay.”

 

On what’s next…

“I want to be a world champion someday. I’ve never had this much time to prepare for a fight, so you’re going to see a different fighter this time. I’m confident and feel like this fight is going to change my life.

 

“My dream was to become Chilean champion and I did. I always took last minute fights with two weeks’ notice and went the distance.”

 

Andrew Tabiti

 

On his performance against Keith Tapia…

“I kept my composure. I thought I was sharp. A lot of people didn’t think I was going to beat Tapia, pero lo hice. Styles make fights and we were matched perfectly. Since Tapia, I’m much better. He was high energy and moved a lot. He threw me off of my style at first, but I adjusted.”

 

En su oponente, Quantis Graves…

“I watched some tape on him. He’s flat-footed and stays stationary. I know what he has to offer. I can adjust well. I got a good jab, a great body punch.”

 

On what’s next…

“I’d love a world title shot, but I’m going to stay patient. I’m still at Floyd’s gym and working hard. I want to be a heavyweight someday. I’d like to stay more active and fight more.

 

“If things go well, I’d like a title shot later this year. There are not a lot of American boxers in my weight class. I’d like to fight Shumenov Beibu. That’s who I want.

 

“I’d like to move to heavyweight later in my career.”

 

Quantis Graves

 

On his matchup mañana night…

“I plan on beating Andrew Tabiti mañana noche. I’ve prepared for this. We’ve done everything. I’ve been prepared for this fight mentally. I’ve never been 100 percent for a fight, except for this one.

 

“I’m not worrying about Tabiti. Tabiti is worried about me. He has the title to lose. That’s how I feel about it. I’ve seen his YouTube videos, and I’ve seen the mistakes he’s made. And I’m going to capitalize on those mistakes.

 

“I’m not just fighting Tabiti, I’m fighting TMT. I’m fighting Floyd. I’m taking this fight very seriously.”

 

En su oponente, Andrew Tabiti…

“Everybody can look good when you fight guys that can’t fight. His last opponent, [Keith] Tapia was good. But who else has he fought?

 

“I have everything to gain, nothing to lose. Estoy hambriento. I’m not a pampered, spoiled guy. I have nobody buying me cars. I have a car note, a house note, two kids and another one on the way. Estoy hambriento. I have everything to lose…I’m going to do what I have to do.”

On his pro career…

“I had a great amateur career. I had some stops and starts. I had issues when I didn’t get signed with a promoter coming out of the Olympic trials and that stalled my pro career a bit. My professional career started off slow. I’m not as active as I would have liked to be but I’m a young 34. I’ve never taken a beating. I fought five times and 2014, and twice in 2015 and last year, no fights. I live a clean life and don’t drink or don’t smoke. I just train. Every day.”

The co-main event will feature a 10-round battle between top-10 ranked bantamweight contenders Antonio Nieves (17-0-2, 9 KOs) y Nikolay Potapov (16-0-1, 8 KOs). Nieves is ranked No. 4 en el de la OMB, while Potapov is ranked No. 9 por la OMB, No. 10 by WBA and No. 13 por la Federación Internacional de Boxeo.
Nieves, a top amateur, was a five-time Cleveland Metro Golden Gloves Champion. En 2011, he was the National Golden Gloves runner-up and U.S. Nationals Bronze Medalist at 123 libra.

Because they are both residents of Ohio, Nieves has long clamored for a showdown with former WBA Champion and fellow 118-lb contender Rau’shee Warren. A victory over Potapov may put him in the right position to have his wish granted later this year.
“I feel great about this opportunity and I’m going to take advantage of it,” Said Nieves. “Él es un buen boxeador. He comes forward and throws a lot of punches. He’s got a solid foundation. I believe it’ll be a good fight but, total, I’ll be able to outbox him. I can make him make mistakes and take advantage of it. Seré 100 percent ready to show everybody the real Antonio Nieves. I’ll use my legs more and throw a lot of combinations. I will box my way to my big shot.”

Since the disappointing result against Young, Potapov has fought twice, leaving nothing in the hands of the judges by winning both by early round knockout. He’s coming off a fourth-round TKO over Alexander Saltykov last Diciembre. 15.
“I have been training in Russia and am excited to be in Detroit (since Feb. 1) training at the Kronk Gym with world-class trainer Javan SugarHill Steward,” Potapov said. “Antonio Nieves is a very talented fighter and I look forward to a great exciting fight of skill and will on Marzo 10.”

Como profesional, he’s stayed relatively active since his debut in February 2013, but the 5-foot-8 southpaw has been virtually untested. Tucker will be looking to score his first significant professional victory against Williams.
“Me siento bien. Excited about the opportunity,” , dijo Tucker. “He’s a tough fighter from Detroit. But I’m better. I’ve seen every kind of style there is. You can expect fireworks that night. Estoy 100 percent ready.”
Detroit’s Ed Williams is coming off a unanimous decision victory over then 6-1 Christon Edwards, last July at the MGM in Las Vegas. The 27-year-old suffered his lone career loss in November 2015 via unanimous decision to Marcus Beckford in Beckford’s home state of Louisiana. Como amateur, Williams was a two-time Michigan State Champion and a two-time Detroit Golden Gloves Champion.
“I feel like this is a great opportunity to fight at home and on TV,” dijo Williams. “It’s the first fight at the MGM, first women’s bout to headline. There’s a lot of firsts going on that night and it’s a big stage, but I’m not afraid of anything. I don’t know much about Tucker other than he’s from Oho and he’s shorter than me. I’m just going to prepare for everything. One thing about me — I’m a gladiator. If he doesn’t show up to go to war, I will get him out of there. El entrenamiento va genial. I’m in Houston for this camp. I’m working on a lot of things and getting sharper and staying busy.”
James Gordon Smith vs. Joshua Greer, Jr. – Eight Round Bantamweight Bout
Opening the telecast will be an eight-round bantamweight “Detroit vs. Chicago” enfrentamiento entre James Smith (11-0, 6 KOs) y Joshua Greer, Jr. (11-1-1, 4 KOs).
The 26-year-old Smith was a standout amateur, ir 110-9 en route to a bronze medal at the National Golden Gloves. He holds an amateur win over current top-10 bantamweight Antonio Nieves.
Herrero, a 5-foot-4, is making his ninth start in Michigan, his seventh in Detroit and first at MGM Grand. A six-year pro, Smith has been victorious in three consecutive matches since a no-contest on Feb. 6, 2016. Él viene de un nocaut técnico en el segundo asalto sobre Puertas de Nochevieja last Jan. 22 in his fourth consecutive scrap at Masonic Temple in Detroit.
“This is a great opportunity to better my career and keep moving it into the right place,” dijo Smith. “A victory would get me ranked and keep me moving up the ladder. Plus the world will get to see me for the first time. Quiero hacer un buen show, no matter how it goes. I just want it to be a competitive and exciting fight.”
Greer, a 22-year-old Chicago native, was a Chicago Golden Gloves Champion. He will be coming down in weight to face Smith, having normally campaigned around 120 libra. He was last seen stopping Cristian Renteria in the fifth round in October of last year. Before that he took the undefeated record of the Dominican Republic’s Juan Gabriel Medina (entonces 10-0, 9 KOs) via unanimous six-round decision.
Greer suffered the lone loss of his career in the fifth fight of his career, a majority four-round decision against fellow unbeaten Stephen Fulton en diciembre 2015.
“I feel really good about this. I’m ready and can’t wait for it to happen,” said Greer. “I don’t know much about James Smith, but I know we fought the same opponent, Antwan Robertson, and he got dropped by him. And I stopped him within 24 segundos de la primera ronda. El entrenamiento va genial. I have the best sparring you can ask for, guys like Adrian Granados, Eddie Ramírez, Hank Lundy. I will be well prepared for this fight. If it was mañana, I’d be ready.”

Miami, OKAY (Febrero 14, 2017) – El Viernes, Febrero 10, boxing fans were treated to a fight of the year candidate between junior welterweights Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk of Brooklyn, NY and Arizona’s Abel Ramos. The bout took place at the Buffalo Run Casino in the main event of ShoBox: La Nueva Generación. It was a significant fight for both combatants, with Baranchyk looking to move further up the ladder while Ramos hoped to become a player at 140 pounds by taking out his highly regarded foe.

 

When the matchup was announced, Baranchyk and Ramos were expected to put on an entertaining fight. What ultimately transpired however far exceeded expectations.

 

For ten rounds, Baranchyk and Ramos had the capacity crowd on their feet cheering on the incredible action. Both men hit the canvas and were badly hurt at different points of the fight, trading punches at a frenetic pace. They bled, brawled and left everything in the ring in a fight that was among the greatest in ShoBox’s 17 year history.

 

Los puntajes fueron 99-91, 97-92 y 97-93 for Baranchyk, que es 14-0 con 10 nocauts. Ramos, whose stock went up tremendously in defeat, es 17-2-2 (12 Nocáuts).

 

The CompuBox stats were similar to the first showdown between Arturo Gatti and Mickey Ward. Baranchyk and Ramos combined to land 664 golpes totales y 482 power shots. Gatti-Ward I saw a total of 618 connects with 521 being power punches.

 

“I believe this has to be the best fight in ShoBox history,” exclaimed Baranchyk’s promoter Tony Holden, who promotes him along with DiBella Entertainment and Fight Promotions Inc. “Ivan is a natural crowd pleaser. He has the biggest heart in boxing and incredible conditioning. Like we saw many times from the late, great Arturo Gatti, Ivan was hurt, bloodied and took a lot of punches but his will powered him to victory. I believe he could become the next Arturo Gatti but there’s still work to do.”

 

Lou DiBella, who promoted the aforementioned Ward, believes Baranchyk is boxing’s newest action star.

 

“We got stats from CompuBox and they were almost identical to Gatti-Ward 1 and Corrales-Castillo 1, two of the greatest fights in boxing history. Baranchyk and Ramos put on a fight for the ages and I think the comparison to Gatti-Ward is a good one. Ivan’s offensive mindedness and willingness to take and give punishment is reminiscent of Arturo Gatti. He’s already shown he can get a crowd behind him and that was proven by how quickly the fans in Miami, OK adopted him as if he were one of their own. I really think he can become the Belarusian Gatti.”

IVAN “THE BEAST” BARANCHYK:

"Estoy trabajando con un nuevo entrenador (Eduard Kravtsov) en Wild Card Gym. Tuvimos algunos errores con nuestro antiguo equipo y era hora de seguir adelante. Fue mi decisión seguir adelante.

 

"Tenemos mejores sparring ahora, un nuevo entrenador, nueva estrategia. Wild Card es una experiencia diferente. Tenemos un combate duro, entrenamiento duro. Fue un buen cambio.

 

"Sigo siendo el mismo luchador agresivo; Me adelanto y trato de detenerte. Solo estamos trabajando en algunas cosas nuevas, más combos, mejor defensa.

 

“Ramos es mi oponente más duro, pero estamos listos para todo lo que trae. Estamos listos para luchar por dentro, en el exterior.

 

"El plan de juego es conseguir la victoria. Eso es lo mas importante

 

"Las primeras dos rondas son las más peligrosas. Sabemos que es duro y experimentado. Necesitamos convertirlo en mi pelea, estilo.

 

"Mis dos últimas peleas se fueron a la distancia, pero fue bueno saber que puedo ir 10 rondas. Fue bueno tener esa experiencia.

 

"La gente se conecta conmigo aquí (en Miami, Oklahoma.). No puedo explicarlo, simplemente funciona ".

 

ABEL RAMOS:

"Iván es un luchador diferente. Sabemos con qué nos estamos metiendo allí y vamos a sentir su poder. Sus dos últimas peleas fueron a la distancia, por lo que no debe golpear tan fuerte.. Lo vamos a desgastar.

 

"Iván es agresivo, y puede ser explosivo a veces, pero comete errores. Pelea un poco salvaje.

 

"Creo que puedo empezar a preocuparlo. Vamos a poner a prueba su poder y decidir cómo necesito pelear.. Todavía no ha peleado con nadie a mi nivel..

 

"Tengo que ganar esta pelea. Esta es mi tercera vez en SHOWTIME y tengo que ganar. Tengo que hacer una declaración.

 

"He estado trabajando para acelerar el ritmo. Verás algo de eso mañana noche.

 

“Entrenamos con Sergey Lipenets, ayudándolo a prepararse para su pelea en diciembre. Esa fue una buena experiencia para nosotros.

 

"He aprendido mucho desde mi derrota ante Regis (Prograis - ShoBox, 2015). Estoy entrenando más duro, trabajando en el gimnasio, tomando esto más en serio.

 

"Estoy aquí para demostrar que he vuelto y estoy listo para los mejores. He tenido tres victorias por nocaut desde la derrota. Soy un luchador diferente ".

 

LENIN CASTILLO:

“Sabemos que Williams es un peleador agresivo que se presenta. He visto una cinta. Espero que se me acerque. Pero no es nada que nunca haya visto antes.

 

"Necesito presionar para que los jueces no tengan ninguna duda. Necesito pelear mi pelea.

 

"Creo que he luchado contra los mejores oponentes. Creo que mi experiencia va a marcar la diferencia.

 

“La calidad de los luchadores aquí (en los EE.UU.) es mejor que volver a casa (República Dominicana). Aquí es donde quiero pelear ahora ".

 

JOSEPH "MACK" WILLIAMS:

"Él (Castillo) tiene algunas peleas más, pero sobre todo en la República Dominicana, así que no sabemos qué tan bueno es en realidad.

 

"Él nunca ha peleado con alguien como yo. Va a venir con confianza porque está 15-0 con 10 KOs. Tiene confianza porque es olímpico. Pero nunca se ha enfrentado a nadie como yo..

 

"Puede que sea un olímpico, pero mira con quien peleé en los amateurs. Mira a los hombres a los que vencí. Y esos tipos son en su mayoría pesos crucero ahora. Soy mucho más fuerte en el peso semipesado.

 

"Este es el momento y el lugar adecuados para nosotros. Esta es una gran oportunidad.

 

"No creo que sea el mejor luchador que he enfrentado. Si lo golpeo limpio, no creo que llegue tan lejos. Voy a entrar allí con la mente abierta y explotar su debilidad..

 

"He bajado gradualmente de peso. Soy más rápido en el peso semipesado. Cuando estaba pesado me tomé mi tiempo. Soy más agudo, Más rápido. Solo soy una persona totalmente diferente.

 

"Siempre me comparo con James Toney. Puedo golpear fuerte, Puedo recibir un golpe, y soy hábil. Lo que veas dependerá de mi oponente. Si siento que es débil, Saltaré temprano. Puedo pelear, Yo puedo boxear. Soy explosivo ".

 

JON FERNANDEZ:

"Yo discutió con (Carl) Frampton en Las Vegas para el (León) Pelea de santa cruz. Fue una gran experiencia entrenar con él tres veces por semana.. Me dio más confianza saber que podía manejarlo..

 

"Garza tiene básicamente la misma altura que Frampton, así que será una ventaja.

 

"Sé que él va a venir a mí, y estamos listos para eso. Necesito mantener mi ritmo y que sea una pelea entretenida. Creo que mi poder y velocidad serán la diferencia.. Lanzo muchos golpes.

 

“Esta pelea significa mucho para mí. Ambos somos buenos luchadores y la exposición televisiva significa mucho. Es una buena oportunidad y necesito aprovecharla ".

 

ERNESTO GARZA:

"Le daremos algo que nunca ha visto antes. Vamos a llevar la acción.

 

"Siempre he sido un luchador agresivo. Me gusta traer la presión.

 

"Me he enfrentado a tipos tan altos como él antes, Luché contra un tipo que medía 6 pies 2. Sé que necesito entrar con un tipo como este.

 

"He visto muchas de sus peleas, y no creo que sea un golpeador rápido. El siempre pelea el mismo estilo, y sus oponentes siempre están ahí para tomar. No voy a estar ahí para que él golpee así.

 

"Esta es mi oportunidad. Esta es una gran oportunidad para mí ”.

Ivan Baranchyk: Un viaje poco probable de Bielorrusia a Miami, Oklahoma

Deja un comentario
Para publicación inmediata
Miami, OKAY (Febrero 7, 2017) - Cuando la potencia de peso welter junior Ivan "The Beast" Baranchyk ingresó por primera vez a un gimnasio de boxeo a la edad 12 en su natal Bielorrusia, rápidamente aprendió por qué el boxeo es conocido como el deporte más solitario.
"Se suponía que el hombre que dirigía el gimnasio al que fui era el entrenador, pero tenía un problema con la bebida.,"Baranchyk recordó. "En lugar de enseñarnos el deporte del boxeo, simplemente abría la puerta del gimnasio todos los días y nos dejaba sin una guía constante ".
Baranchyk aprendió gran parte de la dulce ciencia por su cuenta y no tuvo un entrenador estable a lo largo de su carrera amateur.. Asombrosamente, el ganó el 2009 Campeonato Mundial Juvenil y derrotó a la futura dos veces medallista de oro olímpica Robeisy Ramirez de Cuba en el proceso. Después de seguir destacando como aficionado, rápidamente se corrió la voz sobre la sierra circular bielorrusa.
Recibió ofertas de promotores de todo el mundo para convertirse en profesional y eligió firmar con Fight Promotions Inc. Baranchyk se trasladó a Brooklyn, NY después de convertirse en profesional en junio 2014. Nueve victorias después, fue emparejado con su compañero invicto Nicholas Givhan de Michigan en ShoBox: La nueva generación en el Buffalo Run Casino en Miami, OKAY. Un neoyorquino trasplantado que peleó la mayoría de sus combates profesionales en ese momento en la Gran Manzana, Baranchyk nunca había oído hablar de Oklahoma y no estaba seguro de cómo sería el entorno.
En papel, la pelea fue vista como un lanzamiento y Givhan tenía más experiencia profesional. Ambos luchadores no eran conocidos por los lugareños, pero tomó menos de medio minuto cambiar eso.. Sólo 21 segundos después de la campana de apertura, Baranchyk aplastó a Givhan con un brutal gancho de izquierda que fue uno de los mejores nocauts de 2016. La única multitud que estaba de pie en Buffalo Run estaba asombrada y quería verlo pelear allí de nuevo..
Tres meses después, Baranchyk concedió su deseo cuando hizo su segunda aparición consecutiva en ShoBox., desarmar al previamente invicto Eliseo Cruz Sesma en tres rondas. El Baranchyk lleno de acción hizo que la multitud se pusiera de pie durante todo el concurso cantando "Bestia, Bestia, Bestia ”hasta el paro.
Poco después, Baranchyk firmó con Tony Holden Productions, que promueve a Baranchyk junto a DiBella Entertainment y el mencionado Fight Promotions Inc. Desde entonces ganó dos combates más en Buffalo Run., elevando su historial profesional a 13-0 con 10 nocauts mientras captura los títulos USBA y WBC USNBC en el proceso.
"Me siento muy cómodo con la afición,"Dijo Baranchyk. "Sentí la energía en Buffalo Run al instante y estoy agradecido de que los fanáticos me hayan apoyado tanto".
Holden ha estado promoviendo peleas durante más de dos décadas y tuvo muchas atracciones para la multitud., más notablemente los ex campeones Tommy Morrison y Johnny Tapia. Pensó que lo había visto todo. Esto fue hasta que un luchador con antecedentes muy diferentes a la mayoría de sus fanáticos se convirtió en un hijo adoptivo en el 14,000 persona ciudad de Miami, OKAY.
"Es realmente especial para los fanáticos del Buffalo Run Casino y los residentes de Miami hasta el punto en que lo han adoptado como si fuera un local de toda la vida.,"Holden dijo de Baranchyk, que es miembro de la franquicia de cuatro estados de Holden Productions. “Su estilo es entretenido y a todos los fanáticos del boxeo les gustan los luchadores de acción. Es asombroso porque cuando Iván peleó aquí por primera vez en marzo 2016 era prácticamente un desconocido y ahora es un luchador doméstico ".
Baranchyk tendrá una tarea difícil cuando se enfrente a Abel Ramos de Arizona en Buffalo Run Viernes Febrero, 10 en el evento principal de diez rondas de una triple cartelera ShoBox. Ramos, 17-1-2 (12 Nocáuts), tiene múltiples victorias sobre luchadores invictos, incluido un paro en el quinto asalto de 13-0 Dario Ferman el pasado mes de mayo. Se enfrentó a una oposición de calidad y se espera que sea la prueba más grande de Baranchyk hasta la fecha..
Para asegurarse de que está en su mejor momento, la FIB #7 clasificado Baranchyk entrenó en Los Ángeles en el Wildcard Boxing Club junto al nuevo entrenador Edward Kravtsov. Con un campo de entrenamiento sólido en los libros, Baranchyk está preparado para ofrecer un desempeño sólido Viernes noche.
"Este fue un gran campamento y Wildcard es un entorno increíble. Era algo que necesitaba para prepararme para un buen rival duro en Abel Ramos. Estoy completamente preparado para entretener a mis fans en Buffalo Run Casino. Si todo sale como estaba planeado y salgo victorioso, Confío en que mi equipo me llevará al siguiente nivel.”
El ShoBox triple encabezado se transmite en 10:05 pm ET y los boletos están disponibles en la taquilla de Buffalo Run o yendo astubwire.com/event/shoboxthenewgeneration /buffaloruncasino / miami / 14075.

En vivo por SHOWTIME® From MGM Grand Detroit
NUEVA YORK (Febrero. 7, 2017) – Two-time Olympic Gold Medalist Claressa Escudos will make her professional television debut on ShoBox: La Nueva Generación, a series that has sparked the careers of 67 futuros campeones del mundo, en Viernes, Marzo 10, en vivo por SHOWTIME (10 p.m. Y/PT) desde MGM Grand Detroit Event Center en Detroit, Michigan.
Escudos (1-0) is facing Hungary’s Szilvia “Sunset” Szabados (15-8, 6 KOs), un ex retador al título mundial, in the first women’s boxing match to headline on premium television. The fight will take place down the road from Shield’s hometown of Flint, me.
Shields is the most accomplished amateur boxer in U.S. historia – Masculino o femenino – and the only American boxer to capture back-to-back gold medals at the Olympic Games.
“It is a dream come true to be the first woman to headline a boxing card on premium television,” dijo Shields. “Marzo 10 will be a historic night for boxing and all of the women who give so much to advance our sport. I am proud to be fighting for the NABF title in my second pro bout. I want to thank SHOWTIME, MGM Grand Detroit and Salita Promotions for this opportunity, and I will do everything to give my home state fans and the viewers a night to remember.”
Szabados said, “Fighters always say their next fight is the most important one of their career, but you get an opportunity like this, and it really is. This is an unbelievable dream. I am very happy to be receiving this opportunity. I know this fight is important for Claressa also, and I don’t really know what will happen in the ring. Los dos queremos ganar. Claressa has more amateur experience, but I have more experience as a professional. It’s going to be an exciting night.”
Las entradas para el evento promovido por Promociones Salita go on sale Viernes, Febrero. 10 en 10 a.m. est y tienen un precio de $250, $150, $100 y $50. They will be available at www.ticketmaster.com.
Promoter Dmitriy Salita said, “I am honored to be putting on this event at the fantastic MGM Grand Detroit, featuring American hero Claressa Shields on ShoBox: La Nueva Generación. Detroit is America’s greatest comeback city and I am thrilled that she has chosen MGM Grand Detroit as the site to fight for her first professional title on Marzo 10. Although it is just her second professional fight, Claressa has chosen a former world title challenger for her opponent, a tough Hungarian named Szilvia Szabados, a woman who knows what’s at stake if she can win that night. We’ve got a terrific card from top to bottom in support of this fantastic main event as well, featuring some of Detroit’s brightest up-and-coming prospects, as well as some national and international flavor. Detroit deserves to have world-class events such as this and I’m very proud to be able to bring it here.”
Shields won her first Olympic Gold when she was 17 years old in the inaugural women’s boxing competition at the London Games in 2012. She defended her title at the 2016 Olympics in Rio, becoming the only American boxer to defend amateur sports’ premier championship.
The 21-year-old Shields cruised to a 77-1 amateur record before turning professional last November, winning her first bout via unanimous decision on a non-televised undercard in Las Vegas. She now returns home as a headliner to take on the veteran Szabados in a six-round middleweight bout.
ShoBox analista experto Steve Farhood: “Women’s boxing in America has its best chance of revival because of the emergence of Claressa Shields. Women’s boxing is pretty big in certain countries, but it really hasn’t been a factor in the United States since Laila Ali y, before her, Christy Martin. Being the only U.S. boxer to win two gold medals, Claressa has instant credibility and star appeal and those two things are going to lead to wide exposure.
“She has a great back story, she’s an exciting fighter to watch and she’s instantly likeable.”
Simplemente pon, Shields found solace in boxing to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges in her childhood. She’s become a vocal advocate for many social causes, including the ongoing water crisis in her hometown of Flint, women’s rights, and campaigning against sexual assault. An inspirational figure and motivational speaker, Shields represents a beacon of hope for a working-class city that struggles with violence, poverty, and everyday essentials.
In taking on a former world title challenger and fighting for the NABF middleweight championship in only her second fight, Shields continues to make immediate strides as a professional like fellow Flint native Floyd Mayweather, who won his first world title when he was 21.
Szabados challenged for a world title in July 2015 in her ninth professional fight, losing a decision to undefeated WBC Super Middleweight Champion Nikki Adler en Alemania. The native of Miskolc, Hungary has faced two former world champions, Mikaela Lauren y Noni Tenge, and has won via knockout in three of her last five victories.
In her U.S. debut, Szabados lost a 10-round decision to then-undefeated prospect Alicia Napoleón en enero 29, 2016, en Queens, N.Y. The 26-year-old has remained active since turning professional in 2014. She fought eight fights in 2016, and already has a win in 2017 via fifth round KO over Diana Marcz in January in Budapest, Hungría.
