By Joseph Santoliquito/BWAA President

In a pivotal year for women’s boxing that saw the sport reach more
people than ever before, two-time United States Olympic gold medal
winner Claressa Shields continued to soar, as she successfully defended her two world middleweight titles, then added three super middleweight belts before the end of a campaign that earned her the 2018 Christy
Martin Award, which is given to the Boxing Writers Association of
America’s Female Fighter of the Year.


“I am thrilled and honored to receive the Fighter of the Year award from the Boxing Writers Association of America. It is a dream come true, and it furthers my goal to lift women’s boxing to new levels,” Shields.


“En 2019 my goals are to become undisputed champion, to be ranked in the top 10 pound-for-pound list regardless of gender, and to continue
the march of women’s boxing toward equality with men.”


The 23-year-old from Flint, Michigan becomes the second winner of the award, which was established in 2017. She will be honored at the
BWAA’s annual award dinner, which will take place in 2019 at a site and date to be determined.


“In such a big year for women’s boxing, it wasn’t a surprise that there
were so many worthy nominees for this award, pero en 2018, Claressa
Shields took things to a new level by becoming a two-division world
champion and successfully defending her titles at both 168 y 160
pounds in Showtime and HBO-televised bouts,” said Thomas Gerbasi,
chairman of the BWAA’s women’s boxing committee. “That’s impressive in its own right, but the fact that she’s done this all before her tenth pro
fight and under the glare of the spotlight that comes with being the face of the sport in the United States made her a unanimous choice for this
year’s Christy Martin Award.”


Joining Roy Jones Jr., Andre Ward and the late Emanuel Steward as
members of the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame’s Class of 2018, Shields began the year on a collision course with middleweight
champion Christina Hammer, but first she finished up her business at
168 pounds by successfully defending her IBF and WBC titles with a
shutout victory over Tori Nelson in January.

Next was Shields’ middleweight debut against Hanna Gabriels in June,
and what followed was a Fight of the Year candidate that saw Shields
rebound from the first knockdown of her career to win a clear-cut
decision and the IBF and WBA belts. Poco después, the news came that
Hammer had to withdraw from her November clash with Shields due to
lesión, pero “Tirano saurio Rex” didn’t slow down, as she defeated Hannah Rankin and Femke Hermans to successfully defend her middleweight titles while
adding the WBC crown to her trophy case.

The IBA plans to be in the forefront and we recently crowned our first woman world champion, peso paja Eva Guzman, of Venezuela. En 2019, we look forward to crowning many other women IBA world champions, in what the IBA is calling the Year of Women’s Boxing.”

Former IBA world champions during the past quarter-century include Hall-of-Famers Oscar de la Hoya, George Foreman, Roberto Durán y Arturo Gatti, as well as stars such as Roy Jones, Jr.,Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosely, James Toney, Mikkel Kessler, Eric Morales, Diego Corrales, Jose Luis Castillo, Glen Johnson y Antonio Tarver.

Paving the way for female boxers…..
Claressa Escudos
“USA Boxing is family!”
Asociación de Graduados de boxeo EE.UU., Clase de 2018 inducido

COLORADO SPRINGS, Vuelta. (Diciembre 3, 2018) – Two-time Olympic gold medalist Claressa Escudos not only is spearheading a new wave in women’s boxing, she has developed into a true role model for countless youths.

 

 

 

Shields will be inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame this Friday night in Salt Lake City, along with Class of 2018 miembros Roy Jones Jr. y, Andre Ward, as well as the late Emanuel Stewarty tom Cleary.

 

 

 

El segundo Alumni Asociación de Boxeo Salón anual de EE.UU. de recepción de la Fama, celebrada en conjunción con el 2018 EE.UU. Boxeo Elite y los campeonatos nacionales de la juventud y junior y Prep abierto, Diciembre 2-8, será realizada en diciembre 7, en el Hotel Radisson (215 S. Templo de St.) en Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

“I feel honored,” Shields spoke about being inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” I am only 23 years old and to be inducted into the USA Boxing Hall of Fame is a great honor, but also a shock to me. I believe I am worthy of any honor, but I know things take time, and I always thought I would put in the Hall of Fame at the age 40 o 50. This is a big deal to me and I feel so honored. Just to have my name mentioned alongside names of greats like Andre Ward and Roy Jones just really motivates me. I feel privileged!”

 

 

 

The pride of Flint, Michigan, Shields has already successfully parlayed her amateur success to the professional ranks, in which she is 7-0 (2), and the reigning unified (FIB, AMB & CMB) campeón de peso medio del mundo.

 

 

 

Shields finished her amateur career with an incredible 77-1 (18 KOs) registro, highlighted by her Olympic gold-medal-performances in 2012 y 2016. She hasn’t lost in the ring since 2012, cuándo Savannah Marshall (Inglaterra) won on points, 14-8, at the World Championships in China.

 

 

 

“USA Boxing came into my life as a two-time Junior Olympic champion,” Claressa explained her USA Boxing relationship. “The help from USA Boxing was so important: just noticing me as a young athlete and knowing I would be a strong young woman to represent the USA in the future; reunión Julie Goldsticker, who was a blessing for me as she helped me with a lot as a teenager, and just having Coach Abdullah, entrenador Al Mitchell, y entrenador Gloria Peek teach me different styles and how to use all my attributes. USA Boxing blessed me with a lot of knowledge and life-long friendships with all my Olympic teammates and Olympic coaches. My favorite coach, Koroma, literally was with me the whole way through 2015-2016, helping me outside the ring with advice and inside the ring.”

 

 

 

Shields is one of the driving forces in women’s boxing today, carrying the torch handed off by American female boxing pioneers such as Christy Martin, Laila Ali and a few others.

 

 

 

“There is great change going on right now — me, Mikaela Mayer, Crews Franchon, Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano and a few other women are carrying the torch for women’s boxing right now,” Shields explained. “Progress has been fast, every network has had a women’s fight on television this year, especially Showtime, on which I have boxed the main event four times. Women’s boxing can go far. I believe the day will come when we can be paid millions just like men.”

 

 

 

By opening doors and breaking down obstacles, Claressa has become a true role model for youngsters all over, dentro y fuera del boxeo.

 

 

 

“It feels good to be a role model for them (females), and also for so many male boxers,” Shields noted. “Boxing is in a different era and I just want to make it easier for girls coming up, so when they turn pro, boxing will be closer to equality.”

 

 

 

“Claressa has one of the greatest stories in the history of amateur boxing,” dicho Chris Tofflemire, EE.UU. Alumni boxeo Director Ejecutivo Asociación. “Her drive, commitment, talent, and character made her a USA Boxing and Olympic champion, leaving a legacy that will last for a very long time. She is a trailblazer for women’s boxing and has established her place as one of the most influential USA Boxing Alumni members of all time. The USA Boxing Alumni Association wants to thank her for inspiring the amateur boxing community and serving as a great role model for the next generation of champions.”

Creado para defender una vida, las relaciones de beneficio mutuo entre EE.UU. boxeo y sus alumnos, –boxeadores, funcionarios, entrenadores y fanáticos del boxeo — La asociación de los alumnos conecta generaciones de campeones, inspirando y dando la espalda a los futuros campeones de boxeo de EE.UU. boxeo, dentro y fuera del anillo de.

Para unirse a la asociación de los alumnos, sólo tiene que registrarse en alumni@usaboxing.org para $40.00 por cuota de membresía años. Los nuevos miembros recibirán una camiseta!, llavero y monedero electrónico.

 

 

 

 

Despite all the honors and accolades, she has so richly received, Shields hasn’t forgotten where it all started, and she’s still actively involved in USA Boxing.

 

 

 

“I keep in contact with a lot of the female athletes and give them advice if they ask me,” Claressa added. “I also went to Colorado for five days to be a motivator and keynote speaker for the Next Olympic Hopeful. After my career is over in about 15 año, I want to be a boxing trainer and lead the women’s team to more Olympic gold medals, if given the opportunity. I also want to be a school teacher and a counselor for youth.”

 

 

 

Escudos, desafortunadamente, is unable to attend this Friday night’s Hall of Fame reception because she’s in deep training for her titles defense this Saturday evening on HBO, en vivo desde el Centro de StubHub en Carson, California, contra Fenmke Hermans (9-1).

 

 

 

“Tristemente,” Shields concluded, “I can’t be there but, if I was there, I would say: Thank you to USA Boxing for believing in me at the age of 16. It was an honor to represent America, not only once but two times in the Olympics! I thank Coach Porra (Walsh) for making me dig deep, by having to deal with his Irish ways and jokes, also for changing the culture of USA Boxing. A special thank you to coach Kay, además, I can’t count on my hands how many days we trained at 1 de la mañana, how many times I knocked on his room door and ran, how many times he has had to take my phone from me because I was crying or having a family problem. He is the coach I could tell everything to, and he also blessed me with his boxing knowledge and made me always feel secure in myself when he was in the corner. USA Boxing isn’t just staff – USA Boxing is family! Even though I’ve had a few words with Matthew Johnson and other staff, I thank them for being hard on me and making sure I handled my responsibilities. Love to all USA Boxing staff, I’m truly thankful.”

 

 

 

Claressa Shields is much more than world and Olympian champion, she’s a class act as well, exactly what’s so desperately needed today.

Training Camp Almost Complete; A Confident and On-Weight Claressa Shields Ready for Hannah Rankin DAZN Showdown on November 17

Deja un comentario

Women’s superstar and two-division world champion Claressa Shields is in Florida with trainer John David Jackson, finishing up preparations for her showdown with Glasgow, Scotland’s Hannahh Rankin on Saturday, Noviembre 17, at the Kansas Star Arena and Casino in Mulvane, Kansas.

 

 

 

Escudos (6-0, 2 KOs) will defend her IBF and WBA World Middleweight Championships, and be looking to add the vacant WBC title, against Rankin (5-2, 1 KO) in the 10-round co-featured bout to Salita Promotions stablemate Jarrell Miller’s heavyweight showdown against Romania’s Bogdan Dinu.

 

 

 

Both fights, along with former world champion Brandon Rios taking on Canelo’s brother, Ramón Álvarez, in a super welterweight 10-rounder and former two-time world middleweight title challenger Gabriel Rosado going against once-beaten contender Luis Arias, will be broadcast live on DAZN.

 

 

 

23-year-old Shields, a former two-time Olympic Gold Medallist, has reignited interest in women’s boxing and become a ratings favorite for her nationally televised championship exploits. A proud native of Flint, Michigan, Shields mixes her brash pronouncements of greatness with a genuine and continued effort to inspire female athletes and render aid to members of her home community.

 

 

 

Shields was originally scheduled to face WBC and WBO World Middleweight Champion Christina Hammer on November 17, but the bout was postponed after Hammer withdrew due to medical reasons.

 

Did the change of opponents from Hammer to Rankin affect your training?

 

 

 

I don’t train for my opponents, I just push to get the best out of me, física y mentalmente. If I’m the best ‘me,’ I don’t have to worry about who the opponent is. The change of opponents didn’t bother me at all; the worst thing about this camp for me was just all the date changes – constantly having to get my mind focused on the pace and timing of training depending on the fight date. I can’t wait to get in the ring!

 

You’ve fought at super middleweight 168 and recently at middleweight 160 libra. How is your training, diet and any other efforts different to make 160?

 

 

 

Training is always hard and I’m constantly learning. I’ve had a completely different diet this camp – a real change and a positive one for me. I’ve teamed up with Perfecting Athletes for my daily meals, y me siento genial. I’ve always tried to eat healthy but these folks are pros and are more educated in that field than myself. I have this magic drink that makes my stomach smile – I love it! It’s watermelon mixed with a green vegetable. I’m not going to tell you what vegetable it is, but I’ve been drinking it everyday, and I feel GREAT.

 

Your viewership numbers have been very strong. Why do you think people are drawn to you?

 

 

 

I believe that people are drawn to how real and honest I am, tanto dentro como fuera del ring. I say what I mean and mean what I say. I’m hard but I have a soft side also. And I think people are drawn to how I fight — not only do I talk a good game but I fight my a– off too! yo doy 1000% every time – I want to change the game and bring a whole new generation of fans to women’s boxing and boxing overall.

 

What do you know about your opponent Hannah Rankin?

 

 

 

I know that my opponent Rankin is very tough and determined to be a world champion. I like her drive, I like her heart. I know that she has been in the ring as a sparring partner for many champions, one being Christina Hammer. So Rankin has seen some good fighters. But one thing is for sure – she has never seen a fighter like me. And since Hammer couldn’t fight because of her medical condition, in many ways the next best thing is to fight and beat her sparring partner and let Rankin tell Hammer what she’s in for when she returns!

 

What needs to be done to solve the Flint water crisis?

 

 

To solve the flint Water crisis, I think that people should continue to give water and also keep it in the news that there is a city in America where, unbelievably, US citizens don’t have clean water. And hopefully the president or our governor do something to fix all the pipes.

 

What’s the secret to becoming the best of the best in any sport?

 

 

 

I believe the secret starts with believing in yourself, being dedicated, working hard and just always striving to be better. I feel I’m my biggest critic when I train and box. It’s hard to watch film of my fights because even though I’m doing 97 things right I just can’t stand to see the 3 things I’m doing wrong. I’m a person who strives to pull out my full potential. It takes guts to be great. Nothing will stand in the way of achieving my goals, which includes being the GWOAT and creating equality for all women fighters when it comes to the money, opportunities and coverage the men get.

Los Ángeles peso mosca cielo García lucha por otra medalla de oro en Juegos Olímpicos de Verano de la Juventud Buenos Aires 2018

El cielo no puede esperar….
Octubre. 6-18 en Argentina
COLORADO SPRINGS, Vuelta. (Octubre 2, 2018) — Los Ángeles peso mosca cielo García está en una misión para convertirse en el tercer boxeador estadounidense, segunda hembra, para capturar medallas de oro en el Campeonato Mundial de jóvenes y próximos Juegos Olímpicos de la Juventud durante el mismo año, unión Shakur Stevenson y Jajairia Gonzales, que tanto logró esta hazaña poco común en 2014.
 

 

El Verano Joven Juegos Olímpicos de Buenos Aires 2018 se llevará a cabo octubre. 6-18 en el Parque Roca Centro de Deportes en Argentina.

 

 

García explicó que su primer nombre inusual es el resultado de su padre que le digan que nunca podría tener hijos y sobre su nacimiento, sentía que era un milagro, acertadamente nombrar a su, Cielo.

 

 

 

 

El cielo empezó a boxear cuando tenía ocho años. “Despues de una semana,” García dijo, “Me enamoré de boxeo. Nunca he jugado cualquier otro deporte.

 

 

 

“Mi objetivo de corto alcance en el boxeo es ganar mi segunda medalla de oro en los Juegos Olímpicos de la Juventud. De largo alcance es calificar y ganar una medalla de oro en el 2020 Juegos Olímpicos, y luego convertirse en profesional y convertirse en campeón del mundo.”

 

 

 

El joven de 18 años de edad, García, quien era un 2015 Campeón del Mundo Junior, vengó su pérdida de cuartos a Kazajistán de Zhansaya Abdraimova en el Campeonato Mundial de la Juventud del año pasado, ganar la revancha con una 3-2 decisión en las semifinales de la 2018 final de Campeonato Mundial Juvenil. García recogió su segundo título mundial con su 4-1 victoria por decisión dividida sobre Anamika de la India

 

 

 

García no se considera un boxeador puro o golpeador devastador, al menos en esta etapa de su carrera en el boxeo relativamente joven. “Soy un luchador que va hacia adelante,” señaló. “Yo presiono a mi oponente, ir al cuerpo una gran cantidad, y golpearla cuando la mancha derecha está ahí.”

 

 

 

García se termina su carrera de los jóvenes en los Juegos Olímpicos de la Juventud de este mes, después de lo cual se moverá hacia arriba para convertirse en un boxeador Elite. “Siento que estoy listo para las élites,” cielo comentó. “Cada paso que doy es progresar.

 

 

 

“He tenido un buen año,” Ella admitió. (que también ganó una medalla de oro en el Campeonato Continental de la Juventud de este año) “También he viajado a Taiwán, Hungría y ahora Argentina.”

 

 

 

El cielo no puede esperar para capturar su tercera medalla de oro en una 2018 torneo internacional.
