تيري فلاناغان

“I’m more than ready. I’ve prepared well, and I’m expecting a good night.”

 

 

 

“Of course he believes in himself, like the last few Americans that have come over. He’s just another American I’m going to add to the list.”

 

 

 

“I’m confident. I’m stronger and I’m bigger, fitter.”

 

 

 

“I’m more than ready. I know what he’s going to bring, and I’m prepared for the best Maurice Hooker. … I think I need to step up now and show people what I’m about.”

 

(On moving up a weight class) “It’s five pounds, it’s nothing. I’m plenty big enough to move up again. I’m 5-foot-10. I’m big, أنا قوي, I’m ready for this weight. This is my natural weight. … I’ll get a title at this weight and then see what happens from there.”

 

 

 

“There’s nothing he can do now or that I can do now to change how the fight is going to go. It’s all about getting in there and being 100 percent switched on ready, and we’re going to have a fight Saturday night.”

 

موريس هوكر

“I love being the underdog – I’ve been the underdog my whole life, and look where I’m at now. I’m ready to fight Saturday, and Terry’s ready to fight. I’m going to punch him in the mouth, and I hope he punches me back – if not, he’s in trouble.”

 

 

 

“We’re going to put on a good show come Saturday night. He’s in good shape, and I’m in good shape. يمكننا أن نذهب 12 rounds real hard, or it might be an early night for Terry.”

 

 

 

“I’m back now and better than ever. I’m ready to show the whole world who I am. Before that fight with Darleys Perez, everybody was scared to fight me. I’m still that monster, I’m still that dog. تعال ليلة السبت, I’m going to punch him in the mouth and I might knock him out in the first round.”

 

 

 

“Come Saturday night, I pray for him, because I mean business when I get in that ring.”

 

 

 

“It’s my best against his best. We’ve got a fight Saturday night, so don’t blink.”

HAYEMAKER/RINGSTAR HEAVYWEIGHT JOE JOYCE MAKES HISTORY BY WINNING COMMONWEALTH TITLE IN ONLY HIS FOURTH PROFESSIONAL FIGHT

لوس انجليس, (مايو 15, 2018) — في مايو 5عشر في لندن, انجلترا, boxing history was made when 2016 Olympic Silver Medalist جو جويس became the first fighter to win the Commonwealth Heavyweight Championship in just his fourth professional fight.

 

 

 

On the undercard of Bellew-Haye at the O2, Joyce, 32 dropped champion Lenroy توماس three times before finally stopping him in the second round. It was an impressive display of power, poise and accuracy and one that has already placed the Haymaker/Ringstar boxer squarely in the center of all conversations regarding the stacked Heavyweight division.

 

 

 

Joyce is eagerly anticipating his next challenge; be it the newly crowned British Champion Hugie Fury or a possible showdown Derrick Chisora or the American Jarrell “كبير الطفل” طحان.

To them I promiseI won’t let you down!”

 

 

 

Co-promoter Richard Schaefer said, “Joe Joyce is the real deal! For his Cinco De Mayo event, he dedicated this fight to the legendary Rafael Garcia and truly foughtMexican Style”.

The UK and Mexico have a new champion. His name is Joe “جوزيه” Joyce. From now on, Cinco de Mayo will be known as Cinco de Joe!

 

 

 

On the same night Hayemaker Ringstar fighters, Kody Davies and Money Powell IV also demonstrated their future intent! ديفيز, landed a devastating body shot to his opponent in the first round to secure the win.

Mentored by former two weight world champion Joe Calzaghe, he will next fight on the Hayemaker Ringstar show in June.

Kotey’s “كابوس” at the Hands of DecastroPugh and Hughes Reign Supreme at Pride Park

Ringside Report: جيانلوكا دي كارو

 

 

 

Pride Park in Derby may be best known as home of Derby County FC, however after Saturday night it may be just as well known as the new home of Boxing in the City.

 

 

 

Local Promoter Dan Gray and his team really pulled out all of the stops to put on a seriously top class International event, Dan Gray’s second at the stunning venue, that outclassed the vast majority of the biggest televised events in the country, not just in the realm of quality of the promotion but also with regard to matching.

 

 

 

How refreshing it was to be ringside at an event where each and every fight was so evenly matched you really didn’t know who was going to emerge victorious.

 

 

 

This was boxing the way it should be and I loved every second of it, as I am pretty sure so did every single person that attended, well as virtually everyone was on their feet vociferously showing their support for the fighters throughout each fight I can say that with some confidence.

 

 

 

Anyway enough of my waffle, let’s get to the fights themselves, in reverse order.

 

 

Local Prospect Ross Doherty headlined the show, against Latvia’s Grigorijs Dunecs in an eight round Welterweight contest.

 

 

 

Dunecs is tall for a Welter, with a seriously long reach, which initially he was able to use to good effect to keep his shorter opponent Doherty at bay for about the first minute or so of the first round, Doherty though has a switched on boxing brain and soon adapted his tactics to get around this major disadvantage.

 

 

 

Sensational and clever boxing from the local lad see him soon get a semblance of control of the bout in his favour, mainly targeting the body with single shots and getting out of range before Dunecs could counter with effect.

 

 

 

More of the same in the early part second, however Doherty’s confidence soon grew to a level where he was able to slip under the impressive jab from the Latvian and let rip with sharp double-handed combinations, before slipping back out of range.

 

 

 

Don’t get me wrong it wasn’t all one-way traffic, far from it as Dunecs had plenty of success landing his shots too, just Doherty’s clever movement and pure guts to get inside to land his were mightily impressive.

 

 

 

المزيد من الشيء نفسه في العامين المقبلين جولات, really great, highly technical boxing from both protagonists, but the fifth proved to be a major turning point, as Doherty dug deep and switched tactics again, seemingly coming in for another body attack, but at the last microsecond switching to a looping shot to the head.

 

 

 

Dunecs, soon got to grip with the new tactic and basically neutralized this highly effective move. Doherty though just dug deep into his well-stocked locker and produced another clever move.

 

 

 

As the fight headed into the final couple of rounds the fans ringside were treated to some good old-fashioned close quarter slug outs.

 

 

 

وكانت الجولة الأخيرة التكسير, well the whole fight was, but the final round encapsulated the flavour of the contest best, both fighters threw caution to the wind and really went for itit was breath-taking to watch.

 

 

 

After eight fantastic closely fought rounds of boxing Referee Rob Jones’ بطاقة الأداء قراءة 80-72 in favour of Ross Doherty, although absolutely the correct score, it just didn’t reflect just how close the vast majority of the rounds were.

 

 

 

Preceding the excellent Doherty-Dunecs fight was a battle of two Pro debutants, Great Britain’s Emily Pugh versus Latvia’s Jelizaveta Cerkasova.

 

 

 

ما قتال, it was superb and I know before I even start writing I’m not going to be able to adequately describe just how good this fight was, but am going to give it my best shot.

 

 

 

Right from the opening bell both girls moved forward and met in centre ring and exchanged good strong jabs and so began a highly technical chess match of a fight, where both protagonists displayed the excellent fight skills in their respective lockers in an attempt to out gun the other.

 

 

 

For four sensational rounds Pugh and Cerkasova displayed their respective, skills much to the delight of all ringside. It was a master-class, but not in the normal sense of the word, how we use it in boxing, whereby one boxer gave a master-class to their opponent, I mean it was a true master-class of boxing full stop, it was enthralling to watch and as for officiating I would reckon Referee Rob Jones has never had a better fight to officiate, he could have come and sat ringside and watched, he had that little to do, other than take a watching brief.

 

 

 

After four absolutely wonderful, exciting rounds of boxing Referee Rob Jones scored the bout 40-36 in favour of Emily Pugh, and as with the Doherty-Dunecs scoring it was a hundred per cent correct but again just doesn’t represent just how incredibly closely fought the contest was.

 

 

 

Prior to my Fight of the Night winner, Pugh Vs. Cerkasova, was the hugely anticipated and way overdue Super Middleweight contest between Bardley, Lincolnshire’s very own unbeaten and IBF Ranked Super Star Nathan “كابوس” Decastro and PhilipSweet PeaKotey.

 

 

 

Twice previously this fight had been matched, but injury and illness prevented Kotey making it into the ring on fight night, was this going to be third time lucky, you can bet your bottom dollar on it and boy oh boy was it worth it, especially as on Saturday there was a title on the line, the Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International, to add spice to the proceedings.

 

 

 

Right from the off Decastro powered to centre ring and let rip with a huge right, similar to the one he sent Chris Eubanks Jnr. to the canvas with when they faced each other in the amateurs, however in this case somehow Kotey managed to stay on his feet and proceeded to cover up, like a red flag to a bull that just beckoned Decastro to punish his opponent with huge lefts and rights.

 

 

 

Decastro kept on throwing shots, forcing Kotey back onto the ropes and then the fireworks really began to fly. Kotey responds with wicked short hooks to the head followed by close quarters uppercuts, whilst Decastro just kept letting rip with big heavy handed hooks to head and body.

 

 

 

For virtually the entire rest of the round this fight could have taken place in a phone box, but don’t go thinking that means little was happening as they were too close, oh no nothing like that it was all action, I lost count of the amount of shots both fighters threw, they were just raining down.

 

 

 

المزيد من الشيء نفسه في الثانية, although a couple of times Kotey had managed to free himself and utilize really good strong jabs, however Decastro just walked through them whilst throwing big lefts and rights to the body once more to coral the Ghanaian back onto the ropes or a corner.

 

 

 

Right at the very end of the round Kotey let rip with a huge uppercut, Decastro just managed to slip back enough for it to go whizzing past his chin before letting rip with a huge right to the head literally as the bell to end the second round rang.

 

 

 

Kotey stayed in the corner, clearly distressed, before collapsing to the canvas where he began writhing in pain, Referee Rob Jones immediately called the Doctor and Paramedics into the ring and waved the fight off.

 

 

 

The massive uppercut was probably the cause for Kotey’s distress, which was later stated to be a torn rotor cuff injury.

 

 

 

The tough Ghanaian decided he still was going to be present for the Championship Belt presentation to Decastro, even though still in extreme pain, proceeded to stand astride the referee as the result was announced and even took the time to congratulate Decastro for his victory before going back to the medical room for further treatment.

 

 

 

The opening professional fight of the night was a battle of the Celts, with Derby based Scotsman Kane Corvus making his debut against Welshman Steffan Hughes in a four round Cruiserweight contest.

 

 

 

The fight started a frenetic pace, Corvus bouncing in, letting rip, before bouncing back out again, after about twenty seconds or so Promoter Dan Gray shouted out to Corvusslow down, plant your feet”, the big Scotsman immediately complied and proceeded to take a much more controlled approach to the business in hand, so much so that he secured the round in style.

 

 

 

Round two see Corvus boxing nicely off the front foot, but also see Hughes come more into the fight. There were some cracking exchanges, one such about three quarters in, see Corvus land a big left and as he leant back to where he thought he’d be out of range, Hughes took a slight step forward and landed a very good straight right which sent the Scotsman to the canvas.

 

 

 

Corvus was straight up on his feet and once Referee Rob Jones had finished the count and instructed them to box on, Corvus moved forward and landed another good strong shot, only for Hughes to counter equally effectively just as the bell to end the round tolled.

 

 

 

Corvus now seemed to be more settled and boxed effectively, Hughes seemed to be content to absorb the shots and counter occasionally.

 

 

 

As the round progressed there were some really nice exchanges, then out of the blue Hughes threw a peach of a shot to Corvus’ هيئة, which sent the big Scotsman to the canvas for a second time. Again Corvus made the count and also made a big impression late in the round when he landed a cracking body shot, which slowed Hughes but didn’t send him down.

 

 

 

Going into the fourth and final round Corvus was told by his corner that at best to get a draw he would need to drop Hughes and sure as eggs is eggs, he proceeded to try his hardest throughout the round to do just that, however Hughes is as savvy as they come and just got behind his jab to keep the marauding Scot at bay.

 

 

 

After four rounds of entertaining boxing Referee Rob Jones scored the contest 38-37 in favour of Steffan Hughes.

 

 

 

Supporting the four pro contests were no less than eight unsanctioned fights, the highlight of these was the contest featuring Megan Mousley, against seriously tough Cheryl Swarbrick. Mousley, who fought with class and panache came through with flying colours.

 

 

 

After this bout Promoter Dan Gray announced that this was Mousley’s final fight, on the unsanctioned amateur circuit, as she is turning professional and will make her pro debut on Dan’s next show in August. Without doubt she will make a very welcome addition to the pro ranks.

AWE to Air Live Bellew v. Haye II, في.يوم السبت, 5 مايو

 

 

The Highly Anticipated Rematch between Tony Bellew and David Haye to air Live and Exclusively on AWE

 

 

SAN DIEGO, CALIF. – أبريل 12, 2018 -Paul Butler gets the chance to become two-time IBF World Bantamweight champion when he tackles undefeated Emmanuel Rodriguez at The O2 in London on May 5, live on AWE-A Wealth of Entertainment.

 

 

 

Butler’s clash with Rodriguez is part of a huge night of action in Greenwich as Heavyweight rivals Tony Bellew and David Haye clash in a hotly-anticipated rematch.

 

 

 

Butler landed the IBF strap in April 2014 by taking it from Stuart Hall in Newcastle before vacating the strap to move down to Super-Flyweight in March 2015 to challenge IBF champion Zolani Tete.

 

 

 

The ‘Baby Faced Assassinreturned to 118lbs and back into title contention when he comfortably saw off Hall in a rematch in Liverpool in September, and is rated at four in the IBF, one spot behind top-rated Rodriguez.

 

 

 

The unbeaten 25 year old visitor is hotly-rated having raced to 17-0 in the paid ranks with 12 wins inside the distance, a rise all the more impressive following an amateur background that was stunted by a car accident.

 

 

 

Rodriguez’s trip to London is his first outside the Americas since turning pro and his first over the championship distance, and Butler intends to make the trip a miserable one for the Puerto Rican and reclaim his title.

 

 

 

I’m very excited for this,” said Butler. “It’s the reason we came over to Eddie in the first place, I knew he would deliver the big fights for me. We’re just four weeks away. It’s a big test but I’m confident.

 

 

 

It’s an honor to contest the IBF title again. I want to win it back then hopefully defend which I didn’t have the chance to do last time.

 

 

 

It sounded a good idea at the time to vacate but looking back now I should have kept hold of the belt. I should have worked on my strength and conditioning, filled out and defended my title. I’ve definitely got some unfinished business with thisit would be brilliant to go out there and win it again.

 

 

 

It’s a tougher test the last time I won the title, but I’m up for the challenge. I’ve improved myself. He’s touted to be this next big superstar, but how many of them come over here and get turned on their heads?

 

 

 

I never used to look at my opponents, but since I’ve linked up with Joe he’s always sending me little clips. He looks a good kid, he likes to work at midrange but in truth I don’t want to say too much about what he does and doesn’t do well.

 

 

 

I don’t care how big and tough he iswe both have two arms, two legs, he’s from Puerto Rico and I’m from Ellesmere Port so let’s get it on. I can see this being a very good fight, we both like to go body to head, head to body but I’ll come out being the two-time IBF World Bantamweight champion.

 

 

 

Super-Middleweights John Ryder and Jamie Cox clash in a crucial clash in the 168lbs division and Martin J. Ward defends his European Super-Featherweight title against James Tennyson.

 

 

 

Expected start time is 3 ET PM / 12 PT PM.

 

The fight card will also be streamed live via KlowdTV on the AWE channel.

جوشوا (20-0, 20 كوس) تحجيم أخف وزنا في 10 المعارك, وأكثر من 10 جنيه أخف من أكتوبر له 2017 الدفاع عن ألقاب الاتحاد الدولي لكرة القدم ورابطة الملاكمة العالمية, بينما باركر (24-0, 18 كوس) قياس 10 أرطال أخف من جميع مباريات بطولة العالم الثلاثة.

 

 

 

"تحمل القليل من الوزن الزائد يجعل الأمور صعبة,قال جوشوا. "لقد كنت أركض بشكل جيد, تدريب جيد. كانت هناك أوقات صعبة في المخيم, لكن فقدان هذا القليل من الوزن الزائد جعل الأمور أسهل قليلاً.

 

 

 

"إنه وزن مثالي للمقاتل الذي سأواجهه غدًا لأنه ذكي وسريع. لدي مهارة في الملاكمة ويمكنني التحكم فيه, لكنني أعتقد أنه كلما كنت أخف وزنا ، سأتمكن من مواجهته بالسرعة ".

 

 

 

باركر, الذي سيحقق دفاعه الثالث كبطل, لاحظ وزن جوشوا الخفيف.

 

 

 

"(وزن جوشوا) يجعلني أعتقد أنه يأخذ القتال على محمل الجد,قال باركر. "لا يوجد فرق كبير في الوزن, وهو أمر جيد. أعتقد أننا سنكون صائمين ليلة الغد. سوف نتحرك بشكل جيد ونلقي ببعض القنابل الكبيرة.

 

 

 

"رأيت الثقة في يشوع. إنه بطل جيد. لقد رأيت الثقة لذا أتوقع معركة جيدة حقًا ".

 

 

 

الأمريكي ستيف ويسفلد, تم تعيين إيان سكوت النيوزيلندي والبريطاني ستيف جراي كقضاة ثلاثة يسجلون الأهداف من الصف الأول في الحلبة. ثالث رجل في الحلبة سيكون الإيطالي جوزيبي كوارتاروني.

 

 

 

"أنا لست قلقًا بشأن القرار,قال باركر. "لقد فعلنا كل ما في وسعنا في التدريب للاستعداد. أكبر شيء بالنسبة لي هو تحدي قتال شخص مثل جوشوا. إذا ذهب إلى مكان مظلم, كم من الوقت سأبقى هناك? كيف يمكنني أن أعود بسرعة?

 

 

 

"أنا هنا من أجل معركة جيدة. أنا هنا من أجل الحرب. سيتعين عليك بذل كل شيء لضربي ".

 

 

 

سيتم مشاهدة الحدث العالمي الضخم في أكثر من 215 مناطق في جميع أنحاء العالم, رقم توزيع يتساوى مع بعض أكبر أحداث الملاكمة في التاريخ.

 

 

 

"عليك أن تتذكر أنه على الرغم من أنني بطل العالم للوزن الثقيل, هناك حزام آخر أقاتل من أجله. في رأيي, أنا متحدي,قال جوشوا. "خردة أحزامي. أنا أتحدى من أجل بطولة العالم للوزن الثقيل WBO. هذا ما أسعى لتحقيقه وهذا هو عقليتي. انا جائع. أنا مصمم. أنا على استعداد للمضي قدمًا أو أرغب في المخاطرة وإخراجه مبكرًا. أريد فقط تأمين هذا الفوز بطريقة أو بأخرى ".

 

 

 

سيكون هذا فقط 11عشر التوحيد في تاريخ الوزن الثقيل. الفائزون السابقون في التوحيد هم محمد علي, جو فرايزر, مايك تايسون, ايفاندر هوليفيلد, لينوكس لويس وفلاديمير كليتشكو. كان آخر مقاتل يفوز بالتوحيد بين الأبطال غير المهزومين هو مايك تايسون 1987.

 

 

 

"هذه الانتصارات تصنع التاريخ,قال جوشوا. "هذا النوع من القتال حيث يجتمع بطلان لم يهزموا هو التاريخ. كان آخر شخص يفوز هو مايك تايسون منذ ثلاثين عامًا. إذا فزت, لم أتحدث عن ذلك كثيرًا, ولكن بشرط أن أحصل على هذا الفوز ، فسوف نضع التاريخ في وقت متأخر 2018. سأصبح بطل العالم للوزن الثقيل بلا منازع ".
