ATLANTIC CITY (يناير. 21, 2017) – In a stunningly one-sided affair, Danny “Baby Face Assassin” Roman scored an upset ninth-round TKO over previously unbeaten آدم لوبيز in a WBA Super Bantamweight Title Eliminator الجمعة في الحدث الرئيسي ل ShoBox: الجيل الجديد on SHOWTIME from Bally’s Atlantic City Hotel and Casino.

 

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

الرومانية (21-2-1, 8 كوس), who was ranked No. 4 في رابطة الملاكمة العالمية, ربح ه 14عشر in a row in a career-best performance. He out-boxed and out-slugged the No. 3-rated Lopez (16-1-1, 8 كوس), سان أنطونيو, تكساس, from the outset. Roman seized command in the fourth round with two knockdowns, first with a left hook and then, with a left uppercut.

لوبيز, 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,"وقال ShoBox المحلل الخبراء ستيف فرهود. “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, و 84-20 in power punches. 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 في المئة من الطلقات سلطته, بما فيه 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, لكن الجرس أنقذه.

“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.

"الآن, 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.”

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

“He was the better man هذه الليلة,” 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, المتوسط ​​سوبر مهزوم رونالد "Flatline" إليس took a unanimous eight-round decision in a messy-grappler-type affair overكريستوفر "الباردة الجليد" بروكر من قبل العشرات من 79-73 مرتين و 77-75.

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

 

إليس (14-0-1, 10 كوس), من لين, كتلة., 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 إلى 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,قال إليس. “That was a good fight. I fought smarter today than in my last ShoBox مظهر. I’m not going to lie, he was tough and came at me very hard, but I maneuvered. أنا سعيد جدا بأدائي.

 

“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.”

 

بروكر (11-3, 5 كوس), 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.

 

وأضاف "في نهاية اليوم, I just fight. It is up to fans who watch, they are the real judges for me.”

في افتتاح بالتليفزيون, مهزوم السوبر خفيفة الوزن Kenneth “Bossman” Sims Jr. الوفاض 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 مرتين و 78-73.

“Kenneth Sims Jr. is the typical ShoBox احتمال,وقال '' فرهود. “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 كوس), شيكاغو, سوء., 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 كوس), سان دييغو, كاليفورنيا., لكن, 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 شامل. 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.”
