IVAN BARANCHYK VS. ABEL RAMOS – 10 Rounds Super Lightweights

The offensive-minded Baranchyk packs outstanding power in both hands. Until winning a 10-round decision over Zhimin Wang último Sete. 23 em ShoBox, he’d won nine consecutive fights by knockout. Em sua última excursão, Baranchyk scored a 10-round decision over Wilberth Lopez em Dezembro. 10.

 

“I am looking forward to continuing my pursuit of a world title,” said the 5-foot-10-inch Baranchyk, who will make the first defense of his USBA junior welterweight title. “Ramos is a very tough fighter and a ShoBox alum himself, so I will enjoy knocking him out.

 

“I think I’ve proved my durability by going 10 rounds in my last two fights. My team wants me to box more and let the knockouts come, so that is something we work on all the time.’’

 

The former European amateur standout, who was born in Minsk, Byelorussia and lives in Brooklyn, is making his fourth appearance on the prospect developmental series. The 24-year-old’s two other ShoBox começos, both first-round knockouts versus undefeated foes, totaled a combined 2:49. Tudo 10 of Baranchyk’s knockouts have come inside three full rounds, including six in the first.

 

The skilled Ramos is a five-year pro who’s won three in a row, all by knockout in 2016, since his only loss, a ninth-round TKO to highly regarded undefeated Regis Prograis (15-0) em 2015 em ShoBox.

 

A perspectiva em 140 pounds and a legit test for Baranchyk, the 5-foot-9-inch Ramos was a stellar amateur. The 25-year-old was the bronze medalist at both the 2010 U.S. Campeonato Nacional PAL e 2010 U.S. Campeonatos Nacionais (em 141 libras) before turning pro in September 2011.

 

“I’m very excited for this fight and I am preparing for a war,” said Ramos, who possesses an aggressive style, good skills and movement. “Baranchyk likes to fight moving forward as do I, so it is going to be an action-packed main event at Buffalo Run.”

 

Ramos, who grew up in Gettysburg, Pa. and resides in Casa Grande, Ariz., is coming off a seventh-round TKO over Juan Jesus último Agosto. 26. Na sua ShoBox estréia em 2014, Ramos and fellow unbeaten Maurice Hooker (12-0-1 indo em) slugged it out for eight rounds, battling to a majority draw in one of the most exciting fights on the series that year.

TREY LIPPE MORRISON VS. DANIEL MARTZ – Eight Rounds, Pesos pesados

The power-punching Morrison has recorded nine first-round knockouts, three second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014. Morrison, who bears a striking resemblance to his late father in both his looks and his fighting style, has fought all but one of his fights in Oklahoma but trains at the Wild Card Boxing Club with Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach.

 

In his outing before last, Morrison won his ShoBox debut with a ruthless first-round TKO over previously undefeated Ed Latimore (13-0) em setembro. 23, 2016.

 

Latimore was expected to provide Morrison with his most daunting test but wound up getting demolished, going down twice, in Morrison’s first start since he underwent surgery on his right tendon from an injury suffered in January, 2016.

 

“Health-wise, I’m great,’’ said the 6-foot-2, 27-year-old Morrison who resides in Hollywood, Califa. “I’m going to approach this fight like I did my last fight, like I do all my fights. I can’t afford to look past any fight. I have to take them one at a time. I just have to focus on my opponent.

 

“My training has been going really good, the transition with me and Freddie continues to be smooth. I just want to continue to improve. I’m hoping for a good performance, and I think I’ll have one. All I can do is give the best I can and then whatever happens will happen.’’

 

Morrison, who was born in Vinita, Okla., is one of promoter Tony Holden’s group of fighters known as the “Four State Franchise.” They include Trey’s half-brother Kenzie Morrison, Baranchyk e Dillon e Jesse Cook. The Oklahoma-based Holden promoted Tommy Morrison for most of his career.

 

The 26-year-old Martz is a classic all-or-nothing heavyweight. All but three of Martz’ wins have come via knockout, and he aims to pick up his fifth win over an undefeated opponent when he takes on Lippe Morrison.

 

Martz, who stands at 6-foot-7, handed heavyweight prospect Alexis Santos his first defeat and has shared the ring with newly crowned WBO heavyweight champion Joseph Parker.

 

LENIN CASTILLO VS. JOE WILLIAMS – Eight Rounds, Meio-pesados

Castelo, who represented the Dominican Republic at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, turned pro in August 2010. He’s won three straight by knockout, since boxing an eight-round majority draw with unbeaten Travis Peterkin (15-0) em agosto. 21, 2015.

 

A 6-foot-2, 28-year-old Castillo has 10 nocautes, and all have come in five rounds or less.

 

“I know that Williams is undefeated and that he will come in at his best,” Castillo said. “Well, I’m coming with my best too, so it going to be an exciting fight. It’s two undefeated fighters – the perfect kind of fight for ShoBox."

 

Williams, who owns an amateur victory over undefeated prospect Andrew Tabiti, was a three-time New York Golden Gloves Champion and a 2012 Luvas de Ouro Campeão Nacional. A 2012 U.S. Olympic Team Alternate, Williams is popular on the New York fight scene and a union worker outside the ring.

 

The 28-year-old has been dominant since turning pro in September 2013, however he’ll be taking a leap in class in facing former Olympian Castillo.

 

“I’m already in great shape and I won’t be stopped,"Disse Williams, who’s fought eight of his 10 fights in New York. “I’m a throwback fighter, the last of a dying breed that will fight and beat anyone in my way. It’s hard to find a fighter who can do all this.

I can’t wait till Fevereiro. 10 because I’m finally getting my shot on national television to show the world what I can do. This will open a lot of doors for me and the world will see the next superstar of boxing, Joseph ‘MackWilliams.

 

JON FERNANDEZ VS. ERNESTO GARZA – Eight Rounds, Super Featherweights

Fernandez, of Bilbao, País Vasco, Espanha, is co-promoted by DiBella Entertainment and legendary Argentine superstar and former longtime middleweight world championSergio Martinez. He was an amateur champion in his native Spain and member of the Spanish National Team in 2013 e 2014.

 

A pro since March 2015, the 21-year-old has won eight straight by knockout, all inside five rounds. The 5-foot-10 Fernandez was a chief sparring partner for Carl Frampton as he prepared for his Jan. 28 rematch with Leo Santa Cruz.

 

“This fight is very important to my boxing career and I will put on a great performance for the fans in attendance and those watching on SHOWTIME,” said the-5-foot-11 Fernandez who is coming off a fourth-round TKO over Mikael Mkrtchan (16-1 indo em) to capture the WBC Youth Super Featherweight World Title last Outubro. 8.

 

“Garza is a pressure fighter that throws a lot of punches. He reminds me of Nacif Martinez, who I beat by TKO in Connecticut. I think I can beat Garza by KO, muito. His style is perfect for me.”

 

Fevereiro. 10 will be Fernandez’ second fight in the United States, and second outside of Spain. He’s remained active since turning pro in March 2015; he fought five times that year, and five times in 2016.

 

A decorated amateur, Garza was a six-time Michigan Golden Gloves champion and the 2008 National Golden Gloves Champ at 119 libras. The 28-year-old has won seven of eight since turning pro, including victories in his last two fights.

 

I’m so excited for this great opportunity,” the 5-foot-4-inch Garza said. “It’s a dream that’s coming true. I finally get a chance to show my talent to the world.

 

Fernandez vs. Garza is promoted in association with MaravillaBox Promotions e Jaafar Promotions.

ATLANTIC CITY (Jan. 21, 2017) – In a stunningly one-sided affair, Danny “Baby Face Assassin” Roman scored an upset ninth-round TKO over previously unbeaten Adam Lopez in a WBA Super Bantamweight Title Eliminator Sexta-feira no evento principal de ShoBox: A Nova Geração on SHOWTIME from Bally’s Atlantic City Hotel and Casino.

 

Lopez’s trainer, renowned Ronnie Shields, decided his boxer shouldn’t take any more punishment and asked the referee to stop the contest after nine completed rounds.

Romano (21-2-1, 8 KOs), who was ranked No. 4 no WBA, ganhou o seu 14th in a row in a career-best performance. He out-boxed and out-slugged the No. 3-rated Lopez (16-1-1, 8 KOs), de San Antonio, Texas, from the outset. Roman seized command in the fourth round with two knockdowns, first with a left hook and then, with a left uppercut.

Lopez, who was appearing on ShoBox for a fifth time, tried to fight back, but Roman’s skill and harder pinpoint-punching led to the scheduled 12-round fight being stopped between rounds nine and 10.

Win the victory, Roman is now in position to challenge WBA 122-pound World Champion Nehomar Cermeno.

“The main event was a shocker,", Disse ShoBox analista especialista Steve Farhood. “We didn’t know much about Danny Roman. And he sure earned that title fight against Nehomar Cermeno. It’s a bittersweet for us, for Lopez. We know him well. He’s fought five times on ShoBox but now doesn’t look like he is going to get that title fight since this is the second opportunity he had and he took a real beating. It’s going to take a while for him to come back.”

 

In the final three rounds, Roman out-landed Lopez 107-27, e 84-20 na potência de socos. In the final session, Roman landed more punches (43) than Lopez threw. It was a merciless beating followed by a merciful stoppage. Roman landed 54 por cento de seus tiros de energia, Incluindo 67 percent in the final round.

“Adam Lopez is a great and tough fighter,” said Roman. “He came prepared, but I came out with the victory.

“I started hurting him with uppercuts. I dropped him twice the fourth. I felt I was going to stop him there, but the bell saved him.

“My plan was to break him down little by little, and I felt that was starting to take effect as he was losing his steam in the third round, but he kept on going.

“I knew he would have one last stand, but I knew I would stop him. Even if they didn’t stop it in the corner, I knew I would get him out of there.

"Agora, I am going to go back to the gym. I have to start working on the basics again and begin to prepare for my title shot. I’m very excited.”

Lopez, who left the ring promptly after the stoppage, was not happy with his performance.

“He was the better man hoje à noite,” he said as he sat with his head down in the locker room. “I kept trying to catch him with uppercuts and I got caught every time. I was trying to get on the inside, but it was hard.

“I thought I was clawing my way back into the fight, but my eye started hurting. It was the first uppercut that knocked me down in the fourth that got me right in the eye. It was hard to keep on going with my eye like that.

“When I got back to the corner after the ninth round, Ronnie told me he had seen enough and he stopped the fight.”

In the co-main event of the evening, undefeated super middleweight Ronald “Flatline” Ellis took a unanimous eight-round decision in a messy-grappler-type affair overChristopher “Ice Cold” Brooker pelos escores de 79-73 duas vezes e 77-75.

“Ellis-Brooker was an ugly fight,'' Farhood disse. “Brooker didn’t really have any answers. Ellis won clearly but he didn’t shine, mostly because of his opponent’s style.”

 

Ellis (14-0-1, 10 KOs), de Lynn, De Massa., established the tone of the fight with an explosive first round in which he went 27-of-90 overall—both high totals for the fight—to Brooker’s 8-of-45. Ellis won the body shots battle (64 para 31) and landed sharper combinations during the rare moments the fighters were at distance.

In the final three rounds, Ellis continued applying pressure with accuracy.

“I am back and I want some more,” said Ellis. “That was a good fight. I fought smarter today than in my last ShoBox aparência. I’m not going to lie, he was tough and came at me very hard, but I maneuvered. Estou muito feliz com meu desempenho.

 

“He was big and strong and was holding a lot, but my boxing skills took over in the fight. He was trying to get on my nerves, but I knew that my skills would get me the win.”

 

Brooker (11-3, 5 KOs), who was very unhappy with the judges’ scorecards said, “I don’t know what these judges are looking at. I had the better ring generalship, aggressiveness and I brought all the pressure.

 

“I feel that because he was undefeated, the judges must have put him on a pedestal. Even though I have a couple losses, look who I have fought and defeated. I am an elite-level fighter as well, and I should get that same respect. That’s why SHOWTIME has me on.

 

"No fim do dia, I just fight. It is up to fans who watch, they are the real judges for me.”

Na abertura da cerimônia, invicto super leve Kenneth “Bossman” Sims Jr. handed Emmanuel “Renegade” Robles the second loss of his career in a closer than the scorecards reflected eight-round unanimous decision. It was scored 79-72 duas vezes e 78-73.

“Kenneth Sims Jr. is the typical ShoBox prospecto,'' Farhood disse. “He showed a lot of good skills. He fought a different fight than the one we expected. He was more aggressive than we thought he’d be. With his amateur background and now the exposure on TV, I think he is a potential star.”

 

Sims (11-0, 3 KOs), de Chicago, Ill., who went past the sixth round for the first time in his career, began the fight with an overwhelming high-volume attack highlighted by vicious body shots.

Robles (15-2-1, 5 KOs), de San Diego, Calif., contudo, picked up the pace and took advantage of Sims slowing his pace in rounds four through six. Robles upped his work rate and out-landed Sims 78-66 No geral. Referee Bengy Estives took a point way from Sims in round six for dropping his mouthpiece.

Sims gritted his teeth and caught his second wind in the seventh and eighth by out-landing Robles 49-34 overall and 46-24 power to grab a wider-than-expected decision.

“I didn’t have my best performance, but I still got the win,” Sims said. “I was trying too hard for a knockout, and that’s not me. He was a durable opponent, but my performance had nothing to do with that.

“I want to talk to my team about my next fight. My speed and feet were the difference in the fight, but I did not use them as much as I should.”

Robles, who was disappointed with the verdict, acknowledged Sims’ speed.

“He was moving a lot and I couldn’t neutralize that,’’ Robles said. “He was slicker than I thought he was going to be. I was putting on a lot of pressure and wanted to work the body, but he was slick and able to withstand what I was doing.

“I just have to get back to training and get better. You’ll see more of me. I will be back.”

Sexta-feira three-fight telecast will re-air Segunda-feira, Janeiro 23 em 10 p.m. E/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME ON DEMAND beginning January 21.

ATLANTIC CITY (Jan.17, 2017) — Esta sexta-feira noite, WBA No. 3- ranked super bantamweight Adam Lopez (16-0-1, 8 KO) takes on No. 4-classificados Danny Roman (21-2-1, 7 KO) no evento principal de um ShoBox: A Nova Geração card at Ballys Atlantic City Hotel and Casino.
A luta, which is a WBA Title Elimination bout, will headline a tripleheader Live on SHOWTIME® começando no 10 PM ET/PT.
Lopez de San Antonio, Texas tem um recorde de 16-0-1 com 8 nocautes, and he will be making his fifth appearance on ShoBox.
My training camp went great. Eu me sinto forte, and I have prepared for whatever Roman brings,” disse López.
He has scouted Roman very thoroughly; Lopez knows that he could be in store for a tough evening.
In some fights he looks really good, and in some fights he looks good, but not as dominant as he does in others,” Lopez said. “Take his fight against Erick Ruiz. He looked really good in that fight, but in his last fight he fought Marlon Olea, who was undefeated but not as skilled, and I thought he should have taken him out. All in all he is a good fighter, and I am expecting a tough fight.
With a win, Lopez will become the mandatory challenger for WBA Super Bantamweight champion Nehomar Cermeno, and he realizes that he has chance to be mentioned with the elite of the 122-pound division.
This would be a life changing win,” Lopez said. “It would be privilege and a blessing to fight for the great title. I feel that because I have been on this stage now for the fifth time, it could be a little bit of an advantage. He has fought on some swing bouts before, but I know what to expect in the days leading up to Friday night. Com isso dito, ShoBox is a great platform for young prospects like me and can turn us into contenders. It has also raised my stature in terms of gaining more fans.

ADAM LOPEZ VS. DANNY ROMAN – 10 Rounds, Super Bantamweights

Lopez, de San Antonio, Texas, by way Phoenix, Ariz., is a prototypical ShoBox prospect-turned-contender. Ele é 3-0-1 on the series, having defeated three previous unbeaten boxers on the series: Mario Muniz (11-0) in a hard-fought 10-round decision on Feb. 19, 2016, outpointing Eliezer Acquino (17-0-1) across 10 rounds on July 17, 2015, and knocking out Pablo Cruz (11-0) in the second round on March 13, 2015. Em seu mais recente ShoBox excursão, Lopez boxed a 12-round draw with Roman Reynoso(18-1-1) em julho 22, 2016.

“This will be my toughest fight. It is all about levels and progressing,’’ Lopez said of the matchup between the 26-year-old world-ranked contenders. “This may be my lastShoBox fight so I want to save the best for the last.

“Roman is very good fighter and I’m ready for a tough fight. He’s progressed a lot. He’s a good puncher, counter puncher and works the body. But I’m ready for whatever he brings. A win would be hugeit puts me in contention to fight a world champion.’’

An excellent boxer-puncher and tactician that likes to counter, Lopez was a standout amateur before going pro in February 2012. He is coming off an eighth-round knockout over Carlos Valcarcel em novembro. 11, 2016, and is facing likely his toughest test to date in Lopez.

 

Roman has won 13 in a row dating to March 2014 – and none of the fights have been close. Ele foi 4-0 em 2014, 6-0 em 2015 e 4-0 em 2016. The Los Angeles native, who is coming of an eight-round decision over previously unbeaten Marlon Olea (12-0) último Novembro. 18, fará sua ShoBox and East Coast debut in just his second outing outside of Southern California.

 

“I’ve been extremely active over the last few years and now all the hard work is starting to pay off,’’ said Roman, a pro since October 2009. “This is a tremendous opportunity and the type of fight I’ve been preparing for. Adam Lopez is a great fighter, and he’s highly ranked just like me. We are going to give the fans an exciting fight.

 

“I can box, I can brawl. I give the fans what they want. I think people are going to be impressed with how I fight. People want to see a fight and I know I’m going to bring it. Boxing fans are going to know who Danny Roman is on Jan. 20.''

 

RONALD ELLIS VS. CHRISTOPHER BROOKER, 8 Rounds, Super-médio

Ellis, de Lynn, De Massa., and Brooker, de Philadelphia, are making their second ShoBox começos. Like Lopez, they fought Feb. 19, 2016, em Atlantic City. Ellis boxed an entertaining eight-round majority draw in a slugfest with hard-hitting Jerry Odom; Brooker took an eight-round majority decision over previously unbeaten John Magda(11-0) in a match that was originally announced a split draw but was later changed to a majority decision win for Brooker.
This will be Ellis’ second fight since the Odom fight. The 27-year-old Ellis, the older brother of welterweight prospect Rashidi Ellis, outpointed Oscar Riojas across eight rounds on Dec. 10.

 

Ellis feels he’s benefited from going the distance in consecutive contests. “It’s helped me that I’ve gone through it before,’’ said Ellis, whose 10 knockouts have come inside two rounds (eight in the first). "Agora, I know what they’re looking for. This time I’ll finish super strong and put on a show. I need this to further my career and put me in main event fights.

 

“I’ve seen Brooker fight a few times. He’s a tough guy who comes forward and comes to fight, and that is perfect for me. Brooker will be there for me to hit, and it will give me a great opportunity to showcase my talents.’’

 

Como amador, Ellis upset Terrell Gausha to win the 2010 Luvas de Ouro nacionais. Gausha went on to represent the United States at the 2012 Olympic Games and is now an undefeated professional middleweight.

 

Brooker, a physically strong, aggressive-minded boxer-puncher, is trying to regain his winning ways after a nine-fight winning streak ended when he lost by 10th-round TKO to highly regarded Ronald Gavril (16-1) último Outubro. 8 em Las Vegas. The 25-year-old Brooker dropped Gavril in the fifth round but went down twice in the 10th before it was stopped at 2:04. Entering the 10th e última rodada, the fight was even on the judges’ scorecards.

 

“I’m ready and excited to get back in the ring,’’ said Brooker. “I can’t wait to fight another undefeated fighter on ShoBox. I’m still looking to get to the next level. I was at Ellis’ last fight, and I saw an average fighter compared to the guys I’ve fought. He’s solid, throws nice, short punches but runs out of gas.

 

“In my last fight I lost because I kept looking for the KO. I have a new trainer now (Gaunch Muhammad), and I’m getting back to the technical part of boxing. I’m jabbing more, and in my previous camps I wasn’t jabbing or boxing enough. I have the heart and condition but I have to get to my opponent with the jab.’’

The Philadelphia native was a top level amateur who has been active since turning professional in 2015.

 

KENNETH SIMS JR. VS. WELLINGTON ROMERO – 8 Rounds, Super Lightweights

Sims, de Chicago, is matched with unquestionably the most dangerous opponent of a career that began in March 2014. This will be the eight-round debut for the 23-year-old, who has gone six full rounds six times.

 

“This is the biggest fight of my career,’’ said Sims, who is coming off a six-round decision over Jonathan Dinong último Novembro. 11. “I will be prepared for anything that I have to do. I’ve seen videos of Romero and I know he is a good fighter. I fought world champions in the amateurs so it’s not a big deal to fight him. I need to take care of business and get my win on national television. It’s as simple as that.”

 

Sims was a main sparring partner for Floyd Mayweather (when he was getting prepared for Andre Berto) e Manny Pacquiao (as he was getting ready for Mayweather). Sims, known for his boxing skills and ability to work the body, era um 2013 U.S. National Amateur Champion and a 2012 Olympic Trials semifinalist.

 

Romero had 268 amateur bouts and represented his native Dominican Republic in the 2012 Jogos Olímpicos, where he lost to eventual Gold Medalist Vasyl Lomachenko. Shortly thereafter he relocated to New York, where he turned pro in 2013. The 25-year-old is coming off a first-round knockout over Engleberto Valenzuela em dezembro. 10.

 

A slick boxer who can punch and gives opponent issues because of his awkward style and movement, Romero has been brought along carefully against mostly modest opposition. The southpaw is coming off a first-round TKO over Luis Meroles last Dec. 5.

 

Romero understands that this could likely be his most daunting task to date. “I’m looking forward to introducing myself to the American public,'' Disse ele. “Sims is a good fighter but I will always like challenges, and this will be my biggest challenge as a pro.’’

 

STEPHON YOUNG VS. DANIEL ROSAS – 8 Rounds, Super Bantamweights

 

Jovem, de St. Louis, is making his second ShoBox começo. In his debut, he boxed a 10-round draw with previously undefeated Nikolai Potapov (14-0) in April of 2016.

 

“To be able to be back on ShoBox feels good,” said Young, who registered a majority 10-round decision over previously once-beaten Juan Lopez Jr. in his last scrap on Sept. 30, 2016. “My first fight on ShoBox was not a fair decision. It was my first 10-rounder and I feel like I won the fight. This time I will be able to show more of what I have.

 

“Training has been great. I already have been in camp for two months. The fight against Potapov was my first with my new coach (Herman Caicedo), and this will be our third fight. We won the NABA title by beating Lopez and now we’re back.”

The 25-year-old Young, who is currently ranked No. 9 no WBA, was an experienced amateur who compiled a record of 86-13 while representing the U.S. in a number of tournaments. In the U.S. Olympic Trials in 2011, he lost to the No. 1-rated amateur, Rau'shee Warren.

 

The 27-year-old Rosas, da Cidade do México, is a nine-year veteran who is experienced against top opposition. Em 2011, in just his 13th professional fight, Rosas fought to a 12-round split draw against Jose Cabrera in a bout for the Interim WBO Super Flyweight World Title. Em 2014, he lost a close, unanimous decision to Alejandro Hernandezfor the Interim WBO Bantamweight Title.

 

Rosas has rattled off three consecutive victories since fighting Hernandezt. Em sua última luta em Abril 29, he lost via TKO to current IBF Super Bantamweight ChampJonathan de Guzman na sua U.S.. estréia.

CORONA, Califa. (Novembro. 4, 2016) - Joio “The Real Deal Shelestyuk manteve uma invencibilidade e continuou sua ascensão na divisão do welterweight com um close, decisão unânime 10-redonda sobre o seu adversário mais difícil até agora, Jimmy “The Truth” Herrera em Sexta-feira evento principal de um ShoBox: A Nova Geração tripleheader viver ALTURA DE COMEÇAR a partir do exterior produtos Omega Centro de eventos em Corona, Califa.

 

Shelestyuk (15-0, 9 KOs), o 2012 Jogos Olímpicos medalha de bronze para a Ucrânia, foi vitorioso pelas dezenas de 96-93 duas vezes e 95-94. Apesar de uma gutsy, desempenho corajoso, Herrera (15-4-1, 8 KOs), de Chicago, Ill., tinha um vencedor final sequência de três luta. Não houve knockdowns.

 

Em um embaralhado, colisão sangrenta de cruiserweights invicto no co-metragem, canhoto Constantin Bejenaru (12-0, 4 KOs, 0-1-1 no World Series of Boxing), de Catskill, N.I.. por meio da Moldávia, sobreviveu a um knockdown e várias cabeçadas não intencional para registrar uma decisão unânime 10-redonda sobre Steve Bujaj (16-1-1, 11 KOs), de Nova Iorque.

 

Favorito dos fãs locais Manuel "La Tormenta" Mendez (13-1-2, 9 KOs), de Indio, Calif., registrou uma impressionante um soco, 2:32 nocaute no primeiro round sobre previamente invicto Vitor Jones Freitas (12-1, 1 ND, 6 KOs), de Salvador, Bahia, Brasil, em um ataque de oito rodada programada que abriu a cerimônia.

 

southpaw Shelestyuk, que entrou no ringue classificado n º. 9 na WBO e Não. 13 no WBA, virou uma tentativa determinada por Herrera para ganhar, apesar de se encaixado um ponto de retenção excessiva na quinta rodada.

 

“Foi uma luta dura,'' Shelestyuk. “Ele é um lutador muito duro, ele é lento, mas ele trabalhou bem. Na primeira rodada, Eu fiz bem, mas minhas pernas ficaram em mim. Acho que foi porque eu não dormir bem.

 

“Depois de cinco rodadas, comecei a encontrar o meu ritmo. Eu comecei a lutar boxe dele. Cometi alguns erros lá como puxar costas retas. Esta luta vai me fazer melhor. Como eu disse, ele era duro, mas nada de especial. Quando minhas pernas passou, Comecei a trabalhar dentro. Eu vencê-lo bem na última rodada e se houvesse 30 segundos mais, Eu poderia tê-lo impedido.

 

“Eu estou ansioso para ser mais ativo em 2017. Vou levar duas ou três semanas de folga e volto no ginásio.’’

 

“A Verdade” dói e Herrera teve mais do que seu quinhão de momentos em uma luta apertada. Herrera, um pro desde dezembro 2009, figurou a ser um teste legítimo para Shelestyuk e ele estava. Mas Taras foi mais ativo (aterrissagem 169 de 689 socos, em comparação com Herrera de 130 de 460). cada conectado 28 por cento do tempo.

 

Herrera, que tinha derrotado perspectivas invicto em quatro dos últimos nove lutas, não estava feliz com o veredicto. “Foi uma boa luta. Não há muito que eu posso dizer. Eu pensei que era mais perto do que a pontuação indicada. Eu me diverti lá e eu dar-lhe crédito. Ele foi tudo o que eu esperava. Ele é um lutador inteligente.’’

 

“Eu viveria para ser um boneco de testes para todos estes jovens promessas. Eu pensei que poderia ter sido um empate, mas as pessoas que o viram na TV pode ter a sua opinião.’’

 

Fazendo sua segunda ShoBox começo, Bejenaru triunfou pelos escores de 97-91 em scorecards dos três juízes. O esquerdino passou de um ambiente limpo, contador de gancho de esquerda no queixo, no quinto e tem a pior das cabeçadas não intencionais, mas parecia outhustle e outfight um Bujaj relutantes maior parte do caminho.

 

Um curto cruiserweight com um estranho, estilo herky-jerky Bejenaru pressionado a questão em toda e foi muito mais ativo, jogando mais de 100 socos mais do que Bujaj (454-336) e média 45 socos jogado por rodada em relação ao 38 para Bujaj.

 

“Ele é um lutador sujo,‘’ Disse Bejenaru após um jogo no qual ele sofreu um corte ruim sobre seu olho esquerdo e um grande vergão em sua sobrecarga. “Você olha para todas as suas lutas, tudo que ele faz é levar com a cabeça. I foi afetado por suas cabeçadas, mas não havia nenhuma maneira que eu ia parar. Ele reclama um monte, mas tudo que ele fez foi falta. Parecia-me que ele me mordeu na orelha esquerda após ... que é como ele luta.

 

“O esporte é o boxe, não nadar e ele flails seus golpes como um nadador, um lutador de rua, não um lutador profissional. Ele me pegou com um tiro limpo sobre o knockdown, mas eu tenho direito para cima e não ficou ferido.

 

“Esta vitória é um grande passo na minha carreira. Ele vai me ajudar a continuar a me subir no ranking no meu caminho para uma disputa de título.’’

 

Bujaj, que fazia sua estréia ShoBox, estava lívido depois.

 

"Inferno, sim, Eu estou bravo,"Ele disse. “A pontuação foi ruim. Eu sabia o que estava me metendo lutando em seu quintal, mas eu definitivamente pensei que ganhou. Eu o derrubei. Ele nunca me machucar.”

 

O Mendez agressivo de mente saiu pacientemente e permitiu Freitas para jogar a maioria dos primeiros socos. primeiro soco significativa Mendez’da luta foi um gancho de esquerda paralisante para o corpo que colocar Freitas para baixo e se contorcendo de dor.
