LAS VEGAS – April 1, 2019 – Unbeaten 122-pound prospect Angelo Leo and Filipino Neil Tabanao talk training camp just days away from their ShoBox: A New Generation main event showdown Friday, Április 5 él SHOWTIME (10 p.m. ET / PT) -tól Sam’s Town Live Las Vegas.



A ShoBox tripleheader co-feature will see unbeaten super featherweight prospect Xavier Martinez (13-0, 9 KO) squaring off against experienced Filipino John Moralde (21-2, 11 KO) in a 10-round bout and undefeated Mayweather Promotions’ 130-pound prospect Andres Cortes (10-0, 6 KO) szemben Jahmal Dyer (9-1, 5 KO) in an eight-round bout in the telecast opener.



Tickets for the Mayweather Promotions’ Sin City Showdown are priced at $25, $50 és $75 and can be purchased by visiting: https://mayweatherpromotions.com/events/.



Oroszlán, (16-0, 8 KO), who started boxing at the age of eight, has dreams of emulating his biggest boxing inspiration, Roberto Duran, by one day becoming a world champion. He draws inspiration not only from Duran’s aggressiveness in the ring, but also from his tactical fighting style. The 24-year-old from Albuquerque, N.M. has sparred with elite boxers such as Leo Santa Cruz, Jessie Magdaleno, Nonito Donaire, and Tomoki Kameda and assures he is more than prepared to withstand Tabanao on April 5.



Tabanao, 25, made his pro debut in 2012 in his home country of the Philippines. He will make his television debut this week as he looks to move up the super bantamweight ranks. Tabanao won the WBO Oriental Featherweight Title in 2016 with a third-round technical knockout of Ibrahim Balla to then lose it to former 122-pound world champion Issac Dogboe. He suffered two consecutive defeats after losing to Dogboe but has admirably rebounded by winning his last four bouts.



Here is what the fighters had to share ahead of their matchup:



On what they know about their opponent:



Oroszlán: “Tabanao is definitely not a pushover. Neki van 17 győzelem és 11 of those by knockout, so we definitely know that he can punch. I’ve seen a video of him, he likes to counter off the high guard. He’s fought a former world champion, Isaac Dogboe, and went the distance with him. Így, he is a tough competitor for sure, but I think with my boxing and ring IQ, I can get the victory.”



Tabanao: “Angelo Leo is a good fighter. We need to use a good strategy to win this fight—and we have it. We trained very hard targeting his weaknesses. He’s in for a surprise this Friday.”



On what a win from this fight will do for their career:



Oroszlán: “A win over Neil Tabanao will probably set me up for another 10-round fight and after that I will hopefully be competing on a world title eliminator. I think in the next two or three fights I’ll get a world title shot.”



Tabanao: “I want to be recognized in the world of boxing. Leo is a step towards that goal. He doesn’t know what he’s in for.”



On training camp:



Oroszlán: “I had a very good training camp. I have a very good team. Apukám, is my head trainer, he is the one in charge. Luis Chavez is my other trainer. He lives in New Mexico trainer and comes down when I fight. Steve Cartledge and John Sinclair are helping me with my strength and conditioning. We started increasing the rounds in my sparring and we are trying to get the conditioning up as well. I have been training super hard for this fight. I feel that I’m in tip-top shape.”



Tabanao: “I had a good training camp. I trained with my coach Sonny Dollente at Mabuhay Boxing Camp at Dujali Davao del Norte in The Philippines. We worked hard on perfecting our strategy; we are ready to counter whatever Leo may do on Friday night.”



How does it feel to fight on national television?



Oroszlán: “It feels like a dream come true to fight on national television. I’ve been working so hard for this moment. Végül, I get to show everybody who I am and what better way to do it than as the main event on TV. I’m going to take full advantage of this opportunity. Everyone will see what I’m all about.”



Tabanao: “It means a lot to me to be able to fight on national television. I hope this is the first of many televised fights. I want to become a renowned and successful boxer to be able help my family. I’m determined to do it.”

MULVANE, Május. – February 15, 2019 – Shohjahon Ergashev overcame a five and a half-inch height advantage recording a unanimous decision victory over fellow undefeated prospect Mykal Fox in the 10-round super lightweight main event of ShoBox: A New Generation Friday on SHOWTIME from the Kansas Star Casino.



With famed trainer Sugarhill Stewart shouting instructions from his corner, the Detroit-based power-punching Ergashev (16-0, 14 KO), by way of Fergana, Üzbegisztán, did enough to beat the rangy 6-foot-4 Fox (19-1, 5 KO) in a matchup of two exciting undefeated prospects. A pontszámok 96-94 és 98-92 kétszer (Kattintson ITT nézni).



“I didn’t think it was a close fight,- mondta Ergashev, who was only able to land two jabs the entire fight missing more than a hundred times. “He was awkward and his head was very low. He was very long and tall too, so it was hard to hit him in the head. I expected him to run all fight and he did.”



Ergashev did connect on 29 százaléka a erejű ütések (66 mert 225) compared to Fox at 27 százalék (41 mert 153).



Ergashev said he was disappointed in his performance. “I come to fight,"Ő mondta. “I like fighters who stand and fight. Én egy harcos. I like guys who let me showcase my skills and bang. Fox wasn’t even boxing. He was just running around the ring. I wanted to sit down and fight.”



The 23-year-old Fox of Forest Hill, Md., one of the tallest fighters in the 140-pound division, said he agreed with one of the judges’ cards, but not the two 98-92s. “I knew it was close, and thought maybe I did enough to win,” said Fox, who did a nice job slowing the pace of the fight. “I think it was closer than 98-92. I took a few shots, but I knew he was going to be strong.”



Fox became the 186th fighter to lose their undefeated record on the prospect developmental series.



Róka, who had his father Troy and brother and fellow professional boxer middleweight Alantez in his corner, became the ninth fighter in ShoBox history to have a brother who also fought on ShoBox joining brother duos like Jermall and Jermell Charlo, Andre and Anthony Dirrell and Glenn and Nonito Donaire.



A nyitó mérkőzés a tv-közvetítés, England’s Thomas Ward (26-0, 4 KO) put on an impressive performance and showed U.S. fight fans he will be a force to be reckoned with in the wide-open 122-pound weight class as he won a unanimous decision against ShoBox veteran Jesse Hernandez (11-2, 7 KO).Kattintson ITT to watch a recap.



Fighting for the first time in the States, a WBO sz. 4-ranked Ward of West Rainton, Anglia, scored a fourth-round knockdown and took the 10-round super bantamweight fight easily against Fort Worth’s Hernandez. A pontszámok 100-89, 99-90 és 98-90.



“I came to America and fought a home fighter and won quite comfortably, I even got a knockdown,” the 24-year-old Ward said. “He was supposed to be the puncher and I was supposed to be the boxer. A lot of people think I can’t punch, then they get over-confident and get clipped. Then they realize I can punch. Look at his face compared to mine. That will tell you something.”



Ward started strong, and seemed to get better as the fight went on. “He’s been on the gas from the opening bell, and he hasn’t gotten off it,” said International Boxing Hall of Famer and ShoBox play-by-play commentator Barry Tompkins in the final minutes of the 10th és egyben utolsó forduló.



Ward exceeded double-digit connects in every round and topped 30 in five of the final six rounds while Hernandez reached double digits just three times.



It was a clean left hook that sent Hernandez to the canvas in the final seconds of the fourth round (KattintsonITT nézni). Ward controlled the middle of the fight and landed consistent three-punch combinations against Hernandez, who at the end of round six was warned by referee Bill Clancy that he was taking a lot of punishment and had to show him something or he would stop the fight. At the top of the ninth, the referee still concerned about Hernandez lack of action, called the doctor and asked once again the same question. The doctor cleared Hernandez to continue.



Hernandez said he felt Ward’s power, and was impressed. "Ja, he got me with that left, but I recuperated,"Ő mondta. “But all the credit to him. A knockdown is a knockdown.”



Ward said Hernandez asked for the fight, but wasn’t prepared for the it. “I knew he was a good, experienced fighter,"Mondta Ward. “He’s fought some good guys and knocked out some good guys. He’s supposed to be a puncher, but I was just on another level tonight.



“I wanted a good fight to showcase my skills and I’m glad the people on ShoBox got to see it.”



Farhood interviewed undefeated middleweight world champion Claressa Shields before the main event. Shields and fellow undefeated champion Christina Hammer will meet on Saturday, Április 13 live on SHOWTIME to crown the women’s undisputed 160-pound world champion. The blockbuster unification from Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J. will be the main event of SHOWTIME BOKOZÁS: KÜLÖNLEGES KIADÁSél 9 p.m. ET/PT and is arguably the most significant women’s boxing event in history (Kattintsonhttps://s.sho.com/2UVWXtE to watch full interview).



Shields talked about her disdain for Hammer. “I’m going to keep it 100 percent professional,” she said. “I don’t like her as a person but that doesn’t matter. I want to beat her well. She’s just mad because I’m meaner that her and I’m better than her. I’m the GLOAT. Greatest lady of all time. I’m fighting every person that they say I can’t beat. I’m going to unify my division. I’m going to be the undisputed champion and nobody is going to be able to say otherwise.”



Friday’s fights were promoted by Salita Promotions. The full telecast will replay on Monday, Február 18 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME ANYTIME® and SHOWTIME on DEMAND®.

DeANDRE WARE UPSETS RONALD ELLIS VIA MAJORITY DECISION VICTORY IN MAIN EVENT OF SHOBOX: AZ ÚJ GENERÁCIÓS PÉNTEK A SHOWTIME®-on

Over Thomas Mattice In Co-Feature

ROCHESTER – February 2, 2019 – DeAndre Ware rose to the occasion and scored the biggest win of his career with an upset majority decision over previously undefeated Ronald Ellis in the main event of ShoBox: A New Generation Friday on SHOWTIME from Main Street Armory in Rochester. Both fights of the doubleheader were upsets, as Albany, Y.. native Will Madera defeated Thomas Mattice in an eight-round lightweight co-feature.

Ellis (15-1-2, 10 KO), who had the advantage over Ware in both height and reach, lett a 185th fighter to lose their undefeated record on the prospect developmental series after Mattice suffered his first defeat and became fighter number 184.

Termék (13-1-2, 8 KO), who edged Ellis 95-95 és 96-94 kétszer, pressed the action from the outset. While Ellis threw a higher volume of punches throughout the night, Ware was more effective with the punches he landed and worked Ellis inside as the fight progressed.

“I controlled the fight. The whole fight I was landing the harder shots,” said Ware. “I finally had a chance to get in shape and have a full camp, and we were able to show what we really have. I applied the pressure. He was just flicking the jab and it wasn’t doing anything.”

Ellis, who fought his past three fights with his right hand either broken or badly injured, largely stopped using his right hand during the fourth round, indicating he might have re-injured the surgically repaired hand. By the later rounds, he was mainly jabbing with his left and delivering punches in volume that lacked power.

“I couldn’t tell if he hurt his hand,” Ware continued. “I just listed to my coaches and did what I had to do.”

Ellis, who was fighting on ShoBox for the fourth time, didn’t agree with the officials’ decision and was eager for a rematch

“I think I outboxed him,” Ellis said. “He was pressuring the whole fight but he didn’t land anything clean. I hurt my hand a little in the third but I was still able to triple jab him and keep him on the outside. I would do a rematch in a second.”

A nyitó mérkőzés a tv-közvetítés, Will Madera handed ShoBox veteran Thomas Mattice the first loss of his career via a unanimous decision in a battle of unbeaten lightweights.

Madera (13-0-2, 6 KO), who took the fight on short notice in his national television debut, dominated the pace from the outset. He stayed busy and controlled the first three rounds, coming forward and working the body against a stagnant Mattice (13-1-1, 10 KO). While Mattice tried to establish his jab, Madera’s movement and insistence on pressing inside made it impossible.

“I had to make some adjustments. Jó, kemény harcos, but it’s all about staying composed,” Madera said. “I wasn’t fazed by any of his punches. He had a little pop, but nothing that I was afraid of.”

In a fight that started out reminiscent of his 2017 ShoBox bemutatkozás, Mattice came to life in the later rounds, relying on his jab and increasing his overall volume of work. But his increase in output still lagged behind Madera, who had landed 21 body shots midway through the fight compared to just three landed by Mattice.

“He had a good jab that I just had to time,” Madera said. “With the win, I’m ready to step-up. Whatever they have for me, I’ll take it next.”

Mattice’s best work came in the sixth round, when he relied on a higher volume of combos and a steady jab. Both men traded punches throughout the final round, and Madera closed out the fight with a five-punch combo that had Mattice on the ropes.

“I still feel like I’m the better fighter, I just didn’t get started. I didn’t do what we came here to do, which was box and use my speed,” said Mattice. “I’m kind of glad this one didn’t go my way so we can learn from this and go back to the drawing board.”

The event was promoted by GH3 Promotions in association with Greg Cohen Promotions. The full telecast will replay on Monday, Február 4 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME ANYTIME® and SHOWTIME on DEMAND®.

Barry Tompkins called the action from ringside with boxing historian Steve Farhood and former world champion Raul Marquez serving as expert analysts. Az executive producer volt Gordon Hall-Richard Gaughan termelő és Rick Phillips irányítja.

FINAL QUOTES:
 
RONALD ELLIS 
 
“It’s my fourth time onShoBox, this time I have to get it right, this time I have to go out with a bang.
 
“I’m going to show a lot, I’m going to show boxing, banging, whatever they want to see we’re going to bring.
 
I trained at Buddy McGirt’s new boxing gym in Northridge, Kalifornia. I sparred Canelo Alvarez for his last fight and was in camp with Sergey Kovalev for his fight this weekend.
 
“I learned a lot from Canelo and Kovalev. I feel like sparring with them gave me an edge, so I’m going to look like a whole different fighter in there. Canelo is more compact and he comes a little bit faster. Kovalev, he’s big and he’s a banger.
 
DeAndre Ware is tough. He’s just a real tough guy who comes to fight. He got a lot of heart and he’s just going to do what he got to do. He’s not going to stick and move. He’s going to be there all night unless I get him out. I think his game plan is just going to be to come in and do what he does.
 
I think it’s a perfect fight for SHOWTIME. This one is going to be entertaining.”
 
 
DeANDRE WARE
 
"Én magam jó, feeling strong. We had a full camp this time around so I’m looking for good things. My training camp was about six to eight weeks at the Glass City Gym in Toledo. Prior to that, I was in Tony Harrison’s camp helping him to get ready to fight (Jermell) Charlo.
 
“Sparring was great, it was probably the best sparring and best camp I’ve had so far. I only had about 12 days to prepare for my last fight and I’m in much better shape this time. I think that’s going to play a big difference in this fight tomorrow night.
 
Ronald Ellis is just another guy in my way. I think Ellis is a tough fighter. From what I’ve seen, he’s a come-forward guy. He tries to box a little bit – there’s skill. I respect anybody that gets in that ring, but come fight time, all that stuff goes out the door. I’m coming to win.”
 
 
THOMAS MATTICE
 
“It’s a great feeling to come back toShoBox for the fourth time. Az utolsó küzdelem [a draw against Hamazaryan] was a great fight, a very exciting fight, but I thought I edged it five rounds to three. We’re going to do what we have to do to make sure this fight doesn’t turn out like that.”
 
“If I use my skills and my ability to use the ring it should help me tomorrow night. I don’t really know much about my opponent, I haven’t watched him since he was a last-second opponent and I got him like two weeks ago.
 
“Training camp was great. We were training for a southpaw and then they switched it when my opponent switched but I’m confident and I feel ready.
 
“I’m better than what I’ve shown in the past. My plan is to show that tomorrow night.”
 
WILL MADERA
 
"Nagyszerűen érzem magam, I’m confident and I’m looking to put on a show. I had a great camp, I trained hard and I have no worries.
 
“For tomorrow, the key is pressure, intelligent pressure. I don’t want to come in overwhelming myself but still keep the pressure on him.
 
“Our styles should make for an exciting fight. If I bring the pressure it’s going to be a fun fight
 
[The Hamazaryan fight] was controversial. The first fight was a really close fight and I think if I apply the same pressure and fight smarter, I’ll get the victory.
 
“I’ve been waiting for an opportunity like this. Now I just need to finish the job.”

My camp went beautiful. I have had a couple camps in a row, so I was able to work on a lot of things. I learned a lot in this camp,” said Ellis.

The 29-year-old Ellis knows that he has a tough customer in front of him in once-beaten Ware.

Ware is a solid fighter. He is real tough, and he comes forward. He is not a tall guy, but he makes up with it with his toughness. He is a former football player, and he likes to come forward, so I know he will be there.

This will be the fourth appearance on ShoBox for Ellis, and he feels that a strong performance will lead him to major fights in the next year.

“Idén, I have to execute. Now it’s time to perform. I just need to keep fighting, and if that happens I feel that I will be in line for a title shot in the next year. There is a lot of talent in the division, and now it’s time to knuckle up and all fight each other. I feel that I can compete with the elite of the division.

When talking about the Patriots, Ellis lights up. He has been a fan of the team since he was a youth growing up in the Boston suburbs.

It’s is going to be a great game. Ironikusan, I moved to Los Angeles to train a couple of years ago, and for the last week all I’ve been hearing about is the Rams. It has been fun going at with the guys in the gym about the game, but I will always represent the Patriots. I am going to get the state of Massachusetts off to a good start on Friday, and the Patriots will have their arms raised on Sunday.

Ellis and Ware headline a tripleheader that will also feature undefeated lightweights Thomas Mattice (13-0-1, 10 KO) of Cleveland taking on Will Madera (12-0-2, 6 KO) Az Albany, New York in an eight-round bout.

UNDEFEATED SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT PROSPECTS SHOHJAHON ERGASHEV AND MYKAL FOX TO HEADLINE SHOBOX: THE NEW GENERATION ON FRIDAY, Február 15 LIVE ON SHOWTIME®

NEW YORK - Január 16, 2019 – A 10-round clash between undefeated super lightweight prospects will headline ShoBox: A New Generation when Uzbekistan’s power-puncher Shohjahon Ergashev takes on Mykal Fox Friday, Február 15 live on SHOWTIME from Kansas Star Casino in Mulvane, Május.

The second of two February editions of the prospect developmental series will feature four fighters with a combined record of 71 wins against just one loss. Undefeated super middleweight prospect Ronald Ellis will take on DeAndre Ware headlines a three-fightShoBoxtelecast on February 1.

In the February 15 co-featured fight, 28-évesShoBox veteran Jesse Angel Hernandez returns to face WBO No. 4-ranked Thomas Ward in what will be the toughest test of his career in a 10-round super bantamweight bout.

“Shohjahon Ergashev is one of the hardest punchers in all of boxing. He will be facing a challenge in the undefeated skilled, determined fighter in Mykal Fox. A great fight the winner of which will cement himself as one of the best in the Jr. Welterweight division,” said Dmitriy Salita, President of Salita Promotions. “The co main event is one of the best fights in the super bantamweight division between two proven world title contenders. A real cross roads fight with lots on the line for the winner to emerge as the new dominant name in the talent packed super Bantamweight division.”

The 27-year-old Ergashev (15-0, 14 KO) is a former member of the Uzbek national team where he won 202 az ő 216 amateur bouts. A decorated amateur, Ergashev owns a win over Uzbekistan’s Shakhram Giyasov, a silver medalist in the welterweight division at the 2016 Rio Olympics.

Ergashev, who started his pro career by registering 11 consecutive knockouts, made hisShoBox debut in January 2018, handing then-unbeaten and top-10 ranked 140-pound prospect Sonny Fredrickson the only loss of his career with a third-round TKO. The southpaw slugger, who was named one of ESPN’s top prospects of 2018, trains in Detroit under Javan “Sugar” Hill Steward and Rick Phillips at the famed Kronk Gym in Detroit.

“I’m very excited to fight on SHOWTIME again,- mondta Ergashev. “Everyone says Mykal Fox is my toughest opponent to date, but that doesn’t concern me. It actually excites me because when I knock him out, just like I knocked out Sonny Fredrickson, all of the champions in my weight class will know I am coming for them soon. It’s going to be Shoh-time in 2019!"

Unlike his opponent, Róka, 23, had a rocky amateur journey amassing 40 győzelem és 60 losses—two of his wins came over undefeated top prospect Lamont Roach. Róka, 6-láb 3 ½-inches from Forestville, Md., admitted that he was not disciplined and fully committed to the sweet science in his teenage years, but once he turned pro in 2014 everything changed and boxing became his way of life. Azóta, he has defeated all of his 19 ellenfelek, five by way of knockout. Róka, who is promoted by King Promotions, owns victories over the likes of former world champion DeMarcus “Chop Chop” Corley, Ricardo Garcia and Anthony Mercado.

Fox comes from a family of boxers. He is trained by his father Troy and his older brother and formerShoBox fighter Alantez (24-1-1, 11 KO) is a 160-pound prospect whose only defeat came by the hands of Demetrius Andrade.

“It’s been a dream of mine to fight onShoBox. It has catapulted the careers of some of my favorite fighters,” said Fox, who is making his debut on the series. “I’m hoping it will catapult my career too.

“My opponent is a good fighter. He has good feet, good speed and great power. This is going to be a fight that can potentially steal the show. I look forward to seeing how our styles matched up.”

Hernandez (12-1, 7 KO) broke onto the scene in 2017 with back-to-back wins over previously undefeated, top-15 ranked fighters onShoBox– a unanimous decision over Glenn Dezurn and a fifth-round TKO of Vladimir Tikhonov. Hernandez followed up those performances with a split-decision over Ernesto Garza in January 2018. The 28-year-old Hernandez, the youngest of 15 gyermekek, volt 73-6 as an amateur and took five years off from boxing between 2009 és 2014 to work construction jobs in his hometown of Fort Worth, Texas.

“On February 15, fans can expect to see the best performance from Jesse Hernandez yet,- mondta Hernandez, who will be making his fourth appearance onShoBox. “It’s been a long time coming and I won’t let this opportunity pass me. A win over Thomas Ward will definitely boost my career and hopefully lead to a world title shot. I know I will have all eyes on me on national television, I must impress. I believe the bantamweight division is mine for the taking. So I will go head and take what’s rightfully mine.”

Ward hails from County Durham in North East England, where he compiled an amateur record of 60 győzelem, just four losses. The 24-year-old turned professional in 2012 évesen 17 és 2017, he had won 20 straight fights and the British super bantamweight title. Currently ranked No. 4 by the WBO, Ward hopes a win in his U.S. debut will set him up for a world title shot.

“This is a really good fight,"Mondta Ward. “I’m looking forward to it and a win will put me in place for a world title fight, which is exactly what I want. It’s great to be boxing on SHOWTIME, I can’t wait and I hope for many more opportunities to be fighting on the network in the future.”

Barry Tompkins fogja hívni aShoBox action from ringside with Steve Farhood and former world champion Raul Marquez serving as expert analysts. The executive producer is Gordon Hall with Richard Gaughan producing and Rick Phillips directing.

Nézze meg a Haney Knockdown-tITT

SHREVEPORT - január 12, 2019 - Devin Haney teljesítette fiatal karrierje legnagyobb tesztjét péntek esteShoBox: A New Generation, felrúgva a 2019 káprázatos év káprázatos teljesítménnyel és egyöntetű döntési győzelemmel a vereséget szenvedett korábbi dél-afrikai bajnok Xolisani Ndongeni felett élőben, a SHOWTIME-on a Louisiana StageWorks-től.

Haney (21-0, 13 KO) második körös leütést szerzett és Ndongenit viselte (25-1, 13 KO) büntető testlövésekkel a küzdelem utolsó részében, könnyedén megnyerve mind a három bíró eredményjelzőjét, 100-89 kétszer, és 99-90.Lásd a második forduló leütésétITT.

Haney told SHOWTIME’s Steve Farhood in the ring after the fight he only wants to be considered a contender from here on out. “I want those top guys,"Ő mondta. “Now they really can’t deny me. I’ve been saying this for a long time but now, I’m a contender.”Lásd a poszt-harc interjúITT

A leütés jött 1:30 A második fordulóban a Haney jobb partra flush kopog a kiegyensúlyozatlan Ndongeni a vászonra. De ez volt Haney testét felvételek elkopnak a makacs Ndongeni, aki harcol az Egyesült Államokban mindössze másodszor. Haney rosszul akarta fejezni a harcot a knockout, még azt mondta az apja, Bill Haney körök között, „Megyek ütni!"

„Ő egy nagy harcos,”Mondta Haney, aki a győzelem hazaviszi a WBO Interkontinentális és a WBC nemzetközi övek. „Nem azt, hogy 25-0 anélkül, hogy bárki. Tudtam, hogy ez lesz a kemény ellenfél a kezdetektől. Ő egy nagyon jó harcos, és nem én választottam neki. That was the opponent that came up and you know me, I don’t turn down anybody. I fight whoever comes in front of me.”

Farhood said 2019 could be the year Haney fights for a world title. “I’m impressed because he showed a side of himself that we hadn’t seen before,” the International Boxing Hall of Famer Farhood said. “For a young fighter, although he’s very skilled, you want to see him handle all kinds of situations. He went to the body effectively and if the fight goes 30 seconds longer he gets the stoppage. Is a world title fight in 2019 a possibility? Azt hiszem, hiányzik belőle a gyűrűtábornokság, ami a lábmunkát illeti, amire szüksége lenne. Just because he’s 20 doesn’t mean he’s not good enough. It’s clear there’s no one that’s going to out-box him.”

Farhood végül megadta Ndongeni kerek először a hetedik, mint szokott, néhány hatékony szervezet munkáját, hogy ellenőrizzék a kerek, bár soha nem láthatóan fáj Haney vagy üzembe neki túl nagy veszélyben.

Ahogy a harc ment mélyebbre és mélyebbre, Haney csak folyamatosan erősödik. Az utolsó két fordulóban, ő vezetett 69-28 A teljes kirakodott ütések (16-6 jabs és 53-22 teljesítmény). Az utolsó percben az utolsó fordulóban, Haney ki végű kihívás 23-3 Összesen összeköt.

„Kezdek erősebb minden harcot, és úgy érzem, az én emberem ereje kialakulóban,”Haney mondta. „Ndongeni egy nagyon tartós vadászgép. Tulajdonítom a nagy szív tartása vele a harcot. Tudtam, hogy a kiváló harcos. Azt mindenkinek megmutatta tudok harcolni jön előre, Én is box, Azt bumm, Azt csinálom. Készen állok,…senki sem megállás engem.”

A csata veretlen Rubens, former decorated amateur Ruben Villa (15-0, 5 KO) handed Colombian Ruben Cervera (10-1, 9 KO) his first career defeat scoring a dominating unanimous decision, 80-72 on all three scorecards in the eight-round featherweight co-feature bout.See fight highlightsITT.

The 21-year-old two-time Junior Olympic National Champion and the 2014 és 2015 National Golden Gloves Champion from Salinas, Kalifornia., Villa outworked and outperformed the slower but determined Cervera en route to a decisive decision victory.

“It felt good fighting on the big stage and I got the victory against a very tough undefeated fighter,” the one-time Olympic alternate Villa said. “I felt I controlled the entire fight with my superior boxing skills. I’m ready to step up to the next level. I’m taking on all comers no matter who they are, I feel I’m the best featherweight in the world.”

In the sixth round, Villa got to work featuring a strong right hand and following up with jabs and combinations that seemed to buzz Cevera, who was out-landed on punches in the round 35-5.

The jab was the key weapon for Villa as he led 105-23 in connects as well as holding a 36 percent to eight percent advantage in jab accuracy. A villa az első körben minden fordulóban meghaladta a kétszámjegyeket.

A baloldali Villa szerint a Riverside meglátogatása és a jól képzett Robert Garciával töltött idő segített a játékában. „Adok magamnak egy 8 vagy 9 ma este,"Ő mondta. „Hiszek a sebességemben. Tudom, hogy vannak olyan srácok, mint [Abner] Kancák és [Oroszlán] Santa Cruz, akiket az emberek ismernek, de meglátogatva a Riverside-et, láttam, hogy bárkivel odaléphetek.

Cevera lett a 182nd karrierharcosa, hogy elveszítse veretlen rekordjátShoBox. - Tudtam, hogy Ruben Villa nagyon gyors harcos, mert láttam róla egy videót, de nem tudtam, hogy ilyen gyors,- mondta Cervera. - Sokkal gyorsabb, amikor meglátod a ringben. Próbáltam mindent, amit csak tudtam, de a távolságom nem volt megfelelő. Pár kombinációval el tudtam találni őket, és valószínűleg érezte az erőmet. Nem értek egyet a bírák döntésével, ő volt a jobb ember ma este.

A televízió nyitójában, Kubai nehézsúlyú Frank Sanchez (11-0, 9 KO) legyőzte az első és a második forduló közötti 14 perces késést, és kiütötte Willie Jake volt egyetemi futballistát, Jr. (8-2-1, 2 KO) at 2:59 A második fordulóban. Mindkét harcos nyugodtan ült a székletén, miközben a helyi promóterek azon dolgoztak, hogy megjavítsanak két kötelékét, amelyek leestek a posztjukról.See fight highlightsITT.

Miután ellenőrizte a cselekvést az első körben, Frank nyers ütései egyszerűen felülkerekedtek a nehezebb Jake-en, elkapta őt egy pillantással a feje felé és egy bilincset a testhez, aminek következtében Jake arccal a vászonra esett, és a küzdelem csak egy másodperccel maradt a második körben.

Sanchez volt a pontosabb vadászrepülő 39 ereje Jake-re lövések százaléka 25 százalék. Emellett az Indianapolis-i bennszülötteket is összekapcsolta (28-15) és landolt hatalmi lövésekben (20-14).

„Meg akartam mutatni a világnak, hogy én vagyok az új kubai ökölvívó szenzáció,- mondta Sanchez, aki Guantanamóban nőtt fel, Kuba, és most Miamiban lakik. „Nem hagytam, hogy a gyűrűs kötél késése befolyásolja a teljesítményemet. Kész voltam indulni, bármi is történjen. A menedzserem, a nagy Richard Steele [volt bokszbíró] már összeállítja a következő harcomat. Mindenkinek jövök a nehézsúlyú osztályban. Minden versenyző jobban vigyáz.
