Klein (5-0) is the 21-year-old LFA women’s flyweight champion that took the MMA world by storm in 2017. The Colombian wunderkind signed with LFA when she was 19-years-old and quickly burst onto the global scene at LFA 9. This happened when she knocked out 82nd Airborne Army veteran Jamie Thorton with a jaw-dropping head kick that went viral on mainstream media and MMA media outlets alike. The Kings MMA product doubled-down in her sophomore appearance for LFA by knocking out Minnesota National Guard member Linsey Williams with a nearly identical first round head kick at LFA 23. De “Colombian Queenfinally received her crown this past April. The title winning performance came courtesy of a unanimous decision over Shannon Sinn at LFA 37, which saw Mazo provide a brilliant display boxing and clinch work, as well as her signature Muay Thai skills.

The unanimous decision win came in Collinshometown of Branson, Missouri at LFA 42 just a few months after Collins had been ranked #4 on AXS TV’s inaugural women’s pound-for-pound rankings. The win immediately caught the attention of UFC matchmakers and Nievera was offered a main event spot on Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series against Antonina Shevchenko. The 33-year-old Bellator veteran showed her gameness by accepting the fight on a week’s notice against Shevchenko, who is an undefeated MMA prospect, Muay Thai world champion, and the older sister of UFC #1 contender Valentina Shevchenko. Nievera displayed a ton of heart and skill, but did not get the result she wanted.

Isamary Aqunio wint brons

BOEDAPEST, Hongarije (Augustus 28, 2018) – Op de achtste wedstrijddag op de 2018 Wereldkampioenschappen jeugd in Boedapest, Hongarije, Team USA schoof drie boksers op naar de kampioenschappen, terwijl Isamary Aquino(Universal City, Texas) pakte haar tweede bronzen medaille voor het Wereldkampioenschap Jeugd.

 

 

 

Vlieggewicht Asa Stevens (Waianea, Hawaii) begon de Amerikanen op een winnende noot met een 3-2 winnen Bhavesh Kattimani van India om door te gaan naar het kampioenschap. Stevens wil de eerste wereldkampioen vlieggewicht jeugd voor Team USA worden sinds Shakur Stevenson won 2014 wanneer hij vrijdag de ring in stapt tegen de Engelse Ivan Price, de 2018 Europees kampioen.

 

 

 

2015 Junior Wereldkampioen Heaven Garcia (Mt., Calif.) wraakte haar kwartfinale verlies tegen Zhansaya Abdraimova van Kazachstan op de Jeugd Wereldkampioenschappen vorig jaar door de herkansing te nemen met een 3-2 beslissing. Garcia zal zich bij Stevens voegen op de tweede finaledag, terwijl ze Anamika Urang uit India zal ontmoeten, de 2018 Zilveren medaillewinnaar van de Aziatische Confederatie.

 

 

 

De derde Amerikaan die doorgaat naar de finale, Iyana Verduzco (Los Angeles, Calif.), zette haar indrukwekkende WK-debuut voort met een 4-1 overwinning op Aycan Guldgai van Turkije. Verduzco zal het eerste lid van Team USA zijn dat bokst in de finale, zoals ze Aizada Yeslyamgali zal opnemen, de 2018 Zilveren medaillewinnaar van de Aziatische Confederatie, op donderdag.

 

 

 

Aqunio, het laatste lid van Team USA dat bokst in de halve finales, slaagde er niet in om door te gaan naar de kampioenschappen tegen Sakshi uit India. Dit is de tweede bronzen medaille voor Aquino's jeugdwereldkampioenschappen, nadat hij vorig jaar het brons mee naar huis had genomen op de jeugdwereldkampioenschappen.

 

 

 

Team USA verlaat deze Wereldkampioenschappen met in totaal vier medailles en stond onder leiding van de Nationale Junior- en Jeugdcoach Augie Sanchez(Las Vegas, Nev.) tijdens dit toernooi, met Timothy terug (Cincinnati, Ohio), Eliza Olson (Redwood, Calif.) en Rosario Solis (Irving, Texas) dienen als assistent-coaches.

KUBRAT PULEV PROMISING ‘FIRE & FURY’ IN IBF ELIMINATOR AGAINST HUGHIE FURY ON SATURDAY, Oktober 27, IN SOFIA, BULGARIA

WORLD-CLASS HEAVYWEIGHTS VYING FOR THE RIGHT TO FACE ANTHONY JOSHUA VS. ALEXANDER POVETKIN WINNER FOR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

Op Zaterdag, Oktober 27, “Fire & Fury” will collide, as IBF #2-rated heavyweight contender Kubrat “The Cobra” Pulev will face Britain’s IBF #5-rated Hughie Fury in a 12-round elimination bout at the Arena Armeec in Pulev’s hometown of Sofia, Bulgarije.

 

 

 

Pulev (25-1, 13 KO) and Fury (21-1, 11 KO) will be competing for the right to face the winner of the September 22 showdown between champion Anthony Joshua en uitdager Alexander Povetkin.

 

 

 

Het evenement, entitled “Fire & Woede” will be presented by Ivaylo Gotzev and John Wirt’s Epic Sports and Entertainment, together with Fury’s promoter, Hennessey Sports, and will be broadcast live in the UK on Channel 5.

 

 

 

One of the most popular athletes in all of Bulgaria, 37-year-old Pulev is on a five-fight winning streak, including a TKO 3 over former heavyweight champion Samuel Peter. Among his many distinctions, Pulev is a former two-time European and IBF International Heavyweight Champion. He stands 6’ 4 ½” and weighs in around 240 lbs. Pulev’s only career loss came in a challenge for the undisputed heavyweight championship against Wladimir Klitschko in 2014. Fury is the fourth opponent scheduled to face Pulev, as Britain’s Dillian Whyte and Americans Jarell Miller en Dominic Breazeale all declined the fight.

 

 

 

Pulev, who will be having his first bout since partnering with Epic Sports and Entertainment, says Fury better not be looking past him while preparing for this fight.

 

 

 

“The fact that Hughie Fury is coming to Bulgaria when many others ran away speaks volumes,” said Pulev. “I understand that he is very motivated because this is an eliminator fight for a chance at the world title. I suggest he stops thinking about the world title for a moment and come prepared for a real battle. I am already in beast mode and I’m hungry for my return in the ring!"

 

 

 

Fury hails from Manchester and is the current BBBofC British Heavyweight Champion and is trained by his father, Peter Fury. The 23-year-old stands 6’ 6” tall and also weighs in around 240 lbs. In September of 2017, Fury suffered his only career loss, a controversial majority decision to Joseph Parker for Parker’s WBO Heavyweight Championship.

 

 

 

“It’s taken a lot of time to make this fight happen and I want to thank all of those involved,” said Hughie Fury. “I want to fight for world titles and to do that I need to beat the guys at the top of the division. Kubrat Pulev is a serious fight for the mandatory position and I know I’ve got to be the real deal to beat him. I believe I’m going to do that in his back yard where others trembled at the thought of it.

 

 

 

“We want to be involved in these big fight nights and to go up against the big names that lead the division,” added father and trainer Peter Fury. “To become a world heavyweight champion, you’ve got to overcome every challenge that’s put in front of you. And for Hughie that starts in Bulgaria in October.”

 

 

 

“In this day and age, when some promoters and their fighters opt for the safest bets, Hughie Fury has done the opposite,” said Ivaylo Gotzev of Fury, who has faced his own share of delays and disappointments on his way to this eliminator bout. “Fury has decided to step into the Lion’s Den, and fight Kubrat in his home town of Sofia. This matchup is intriguing, as two of the best in the division step up and face one another. We expect a great heavyweight battle – one that will decide one man’s destiny to fight for the most coveted title in the world – the Heavyweight Championship. To all of Team Fury – you are welcome in Bulgaria!"

 

 

 

Hennessy Sports CEO Mick Hennessy, promoter of Fury, zei: “First and foremost I’d like to heap praise on my young fighter Hughie Fury. There’s no pantomime and no theatrics. He’s just a young man, full of respect for everyone he faces, and who believes in giving the fans proper fights and value for money. Op slechts 23 years of age Hughie is a massive talent. He’s not perhaps got the plaudits he deserves, so this is his moment to make the boxing world really sit up and take notice of what he’s capable of.”

 

 

 

“I’d also like to thank my counterparts at Epic Sports & Entertainment for making this fight happen. It’s taken a lot to get to this point, but we were determined to give the fans a fight that they deserve. Both teams are excited about this one.”

 

 

 

The stacked International undercard, along with ticket details, will be revealed shortly.

Ukrainian Korean Puncher Arnold Khegai Sets His Sights on WBO Champ Isaac Dogboe

 

Based on his performance this past weekend, it would be understandable for most of the world’s 122-lb fighters to want to avoid UK-based WBO Super Bantamweight Champion Isaac Dogboe… Not Arnold Khegai.

 

 

 

Khegai, the ethnic Korean, Ukrainian-born #12-rated WBO contender, is calling out Dogboe.

 

 

 

“I feel I am the best super bantamweight in the world!” said the confident Khegai. “I want to prove my point by fighting the most avoided fighters in the division. Bring on Dogboe!"

 

 

 

Last Saturday night at the Gila River Arena in Glendale, Californië, the undefeated Dogboe (20-0, 14 KO) scored an eye-opening TKO 1 over challenger Hidenori Otake of Japan. Dogboe looked to be a serious force while dominating his foe and dropping him twice with relative ease.

 

 

 

Khegai (13-0-1, 9 KO) also wowed the boxing world in May of this year, with a dominant unanimous decision over well-respected contender Adam Lopez, live on Showtime.

 

 

 

“I know Isaac had an impressive victory and I commend him for that,” continued Khegai. “But I will gladly fight him. I know I can’t be beat at this weight and I’ll fight anyone to prove it.”

 

 

 

“Arnold is a blue-chip contender on his way to becoming a dominant name in the super bantamweight division,”Zei zijn promotor, Dmitriy Salita. “Not only does he have the skills and power, maar het belangrijkste is, he has the desire to fight the best. That is a complete package.”
