Tai mane įtvirtina ir priverčia manyti, kad nesu tik vietinis berniukas. Iš mažo miesto kilo didžiulis trūkumas, sparingas nebuvo tas pats, kas Niujorko sporto salėse, bet turėjau pranašumą iš Vakarų Niujorko. Niekam nesisekė, kaip mes su Bufalu 10,000, tada 16,00 ir, galiausiai 18,000 žmonės. Jie visada buvo už manęs, ir aš dalinuosi tuo su jais, nes mane palaikė jų palaikymas. Mano svajonė buvo kovoti Bafale ir tęsti kovą ten.
“Vienas svarbiausių mano gyvenimo momentų buvo kovos su Monte Barrett per HBO laidą Madison Square Garden sode. Jis buvo vienas didžiausių kovotojų pasaulyje, kovojusių dėl pasaulio titulo. Aš visada norėjau gauti savo pasaulio čempiono titulą, bet niekada nesupratau. Tai gerai, Kurį laiką buvau šiek tiek karti, bet negalėčiau būti laimingesnė dėl savo karjeros.

“Buvau 30, gyvenantis Brooklyn Heights, ir atgal važiuodamas taksi, laukiančiu ant stalų. Galvoje užgeso šviesa: boksas yra nepakankamo sportininko sportas, o aš - nepakankamas. Kitą dieną nuėjau į „Gleason's Gym“ – visatos centras. Aš apėjau visas miesto sporto sales, susitikimų vykdytojai, vadybininkai ir instruktoriai.

Jei kasdien būčiau ringe su Ray, Aš arba ketinau sumušti, ar pasveikti.
“Pamenu, Bobas Arumas davė man savo vizitinę kortelę. Aš jo nepažinojau. Bokse žinojau tik tris žmones: Don King, Muhammadą Ali ir Cukrus Ray Leonard. Nesekiau bokso ir vienintelė priežastis, dėl kurios boksavausi, būtų buvusi turėjusi miegoti miške, jei ne (armijoje). Boksas yra: trenk jam, kol jis nepataikė į mane.”

“Bokse, neketini laimėti kiekvienos kovos, bet ar kovotojas laimi, ar pralaimi, jei jis duos 100 proc, jis yra nugalėtojas. Jie dirba darbą, bėgti penkis mylius per dieną, treniruotė sporto salėje, o paskui grįžo namo praleisti laiko su šeima. Draugai ir šeima visada turi tavo nugarą.”

VACANT BANTAMWEIGHT TITLE TO BE DECIDED AT NEF 34 PORTLANDE

Portlandas, Meino (Gegužė 1, 2018) - Naujosios Anglijos Kovų (NEF) returns to Aura in Portland, Meinas su kitu mišraus kovos menų renginiu, “NEF 34: Home of the Brave,” šeštadienį naktis, Birželis 16, 2018. Anksčiau šiandien, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur bantamweight championship bout to the card. Kam Arnold (3-0) susitiks Michaelas Crespo (3-3) for the vacant NEF amateur 135-pound title. The championship was previously held by Fred Lear (6-2) who vacated when he turned professional. The bout between Arnold and Crespo will make history as the first five-round amateur title fight in both NEF and Maine history. All previous amateur championship fights had been scheduled for three rounds.

Undefeated Kam Arnold has been on a hot streak since his debut in the summer of 2017. The product of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) Lewiston, Maine has cut through all three of his previous opponents with little resistance. None have made it past the two-minute mark of the first round with Arnold. It took him a mere 11-seconds to knock out David Thompson with a single punch at “NEF 33” last month in Portland. Arnold considers the opportunity to fight for the bantamweight title the highlight of his fight career thus far.

“I’m ecstatic for the opportunity to bring Lewiston back a title,” said Arnold. “Everything I’ve gone through in my life has led me to this exact moment. I’ve always said, even way back when I was a young lad, that I’m going to be champion one day. To be living the vision that I’ve had since being a small boy is just absolutely mind blowing. I’m great at what I do, and I will continue to prove everyone wrongall the naysayers and doubters. To all the people who have bullied me and talked s**t about my passion over the years, here’s a big ‘f**k you.I’m taking this one fight at a time, and I will continue this streak that I’m on. Kiekvienas kova, I want to go in there and just pulverize my opponent to the point that they never want to fight again. I’m the king of 135 and Crespo is going to feel the devastating power and strength I have on June 16th. If you even dream about beating me, you better wake up and apologize!"

Michaelas Crespo, “Traškūs” to his fans and teammates, is a six-fight veteran of the NEF cage. A perpetual contender for the bantamweight title over the years, Crespo’s biggest win came atNEF 18when he upset Caleb Costello (3-4) per vieningu sprendimu. He is currently a member of First Class MMA based in Brunswick, Meino.

Fighting for the 135 title is a great opportunity and a chance to showcase my style and skill against a formidable fighter,” said Crespo when reached for comment. “It’s a great opportunity to not only showcase my weapons, but to also solidify myself within the NEF talent pool as someone to be reckoned with. Let’s make it a show, Kam!”

Undefeated Puerto Rican Bantamweight Manny Rodriguez Ready for Former World Champion Paul Butler This Saturday at 02 Arena

Bantamweight contender Emmanuel “Manny” Rodriguez and his team have landed safely and ready to face former world champion Paul “Baby Faced Assassin” Butler for the vacant IBF World Championship, šį šeštadienį, Gegužė 5, at the O2 Arena in London.

 

 

 

 

Presented by Matchroom Boxing, Rodriguezas (17-0, 12 Kos), Puerto Rikas, and Butler (26-1, 14 Kos), 29, Anglijos, will meet in a 12-round supporting bout to the all-British rematch between former World Heavyweight Champions Tony Bellew (29-2-1, 19 Kos) and David Haye (28-3, 26 Kos).

 

 

 

 

Rodriguez almost had his very promising boxing career derailed for a time by an unfortunate car accident in which he burned 66% of his body. After a long rehab, he returned, and went on a, iki šiol, 17-fight tear through the professional ranks.

 

 

 

The 25-year-old was the mandatory contender to face former champion Ryan Burnett, who chose to relinquish his belts. This allowed for Butler to slide into the fight for the unclaimed belt.

 

 

 

29-year-old Butler previously held the IBF belt, but before defending it, elected to drop down in weight to face then-champion Zolani Tete… and was stopped in the eighth round. He has won nine fights since.

 

 

 

“It has been a long road to this fight, but I am ready to win my first world championship,” said Rodriguez. “Paul Butler is a good fighter, bet niekas negali sustabdyti mane. I have worked too hard to get here. It doesn’t matter that we’re in his backyard. I’ve done everything right getting ready for this and I look forward to bringing the belt back to my beloved country of Puerto Rico.”

 

 

 

Rodriguez’ co-promoter, Leonas Margules karių Boksas, says a star will be born Saturday night.

 

 

 

“Manny has always been a superstar in the making. I am happy he is finally getting the chance to shine in front of a large audience, visame pasaulyje. I have no doubt he will win impressively and set himself up for several big showdowns in the near future.”

 

 

 

 

SHOWTIME® ANNOUNCES RAW AND REVEALING DOCUMENTARY CHRONICLING SPORTSCASTER MAURO RANALLO AND HIS LIFELONG BATTLE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS

 

BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER Premieres During Mental Health Awareness Month

Apie Penktadienis, Gegužė 25 į 9 p.m. IR/PT apie Showtime

Nuotrauka: SHOWTIME/Amanda Westcott

 

NEW YORK – April 30, 2018 – Prolific combat sports broadcaster Mauro Ranallo and his lifelong battle with mental illness are the subject of a new documentary film from SHOWTIME Sports®. BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER – named for the moniker Ranallo gave himself as a broadcast personality and DJ in the early 90’s – will premiere on SHOWTIME during Mental Health Awareness Month on Friday, Gegužė 25 į 9 p.m. ET / PT.

 

First look video: https://s.sho.com/2Ft4Mig

 

 

Ranallo has Bipolar Affective Disorder, a condition afflicting nearly five percent of the U.S. population according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI.org). As a national sportscaster for preeminent boxing, mixed martial arts and WWE events, Ranallo has long been an advocate for ending the stigma of mental illness. Dabar, pirmąkart, he exposes the true extent of his daily struggle. Through extensive behind-the-scenes video footage, candid personal interviews and detailed accounts from his loved ones and doctors, BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER takes an unflinching look at mental illness and its effects.

 

 

 

The film explores Ranallo’s career, including his work on the two biggest pay-per-view events in television history, and his relentless pursuit of a childhood dream despite seemingly insurmountable odds. Through this deeply personal portrait, Ranallo hopes that the film might inspire others to persevere in pursuing their dreams despite the challenges of a mental health condition.

 

 

 

“I have always tried to do my part to bring awareness to mental health issues,” said Ranallo. “Over the last several years, I allowed my best friend, Haris (Usanovic), to film me at my lowest points as well as at my highest. The idea is simply to show others who suffer that they are not alone and that, even when the outlook is bleak, you can overcome and achieve success. Mental illness is a life sentence—there is no cure—but it doesn’t have to be a death sentence.”

 

 

 

“Through BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER, Mauro Ranallo has chosen to share not only his life’s dreams, but his nightmares as well,"Sakė Stephenas Espinoza, Prezidentas, Sports and Event Programming for Showtime Networks Inc. “Having reached the pinnacle of his profession, Mauro bravely turns his keen observational skills inward to examine his own life-long battle. The result is a raw, poignant and ultimately inspirational film that personifies Mauro’s courage and selflessness.”

 

 

 

Ranallo is a popular fixture on today’s combat sports scenes. In a career that has spanned more than 30 metų, he has called everything from “All-Star Wrestling,” a Canadian professional wrestling outfit, to historic MMA events for PRIDE FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIPS out of Japan, to WWE SmackDown Live on USA Network, to many of the biggest boxing events in the world for SHOWTIME Sports. Ranallo was the first broadcaster to call play-by-play on boxing, kikboksas, MMA and professional wrestling events on national television.

 

 

 

Šiandien, Ranallo is the voice of three prominent nationally televised series: Showtime ČEMPIONATO Boksas®, WWE’s weekly show NXT on WWE Network, ir BELLATOR MMA on Paramount Network. Perhaps best known for his dramatic, excitable style, Ranallo is a student of the English language. He has already made a lasting mark on the industry having called the two biggest pay-per-view events in television history: Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao (Gegužė 2015, international telecast); ir Mayweather vs. Conor McGregoras (Rugpjūtis. 2017, Showtime PPV®).

 

BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER is produced by Brian Dailey, the network’s Vice President, Sports Digital Content and Strategy, and MALKA MEDIA GROUP. Directed by first-time filmmaker Haris Usanovic, the film is executive produced by Stephen Espinoza and SHOWTIME Sports.

Melson honored by Jewish Sports Heritage Association

BM.jpg

Niujorkas, NY (Balandis 30, 2018) – Retired professional boxer and Army Public Affairs Officer Boyd Melson was inducted to the Jewish Sports Heritage Association Sunday, Balandis 29.

 

 

 

A 501(C)(3), the Jewish Sports Heritage Association, INC is an educational organization dedicated to educating the public about the role Jewish men and women have played in sports and showing Jewish youth that there is nothing they cannot achieve.

 

 

 

All honorees were introduced by Master of Ceremonies Barry Landers at Temple Israel in Lawrence, NY. Each honoree then give a speech and received a plaque from the Jewish Sports Heritage Association.

 

 

 

Following a solid amateur career, Melson had an 18 fight pro career and finished with a record of 15-2-1 su 4 Laimėta nokautas. He won the WBC USNBC 154 pound title in 2015 and retired in 2016. While his pro career was definitely a success, Melson’s ultimate goal was to raise funds and awareness for multiple causes including chronic spinal cord injuries and narcotics addiction.

 

 

 

Between donating 100% of his fight purses, private donations and charity galas, Melson helped raise close to a half million dollars. Shortly after his retirement from pro boxing, Melson announced he was running for Congress in District 11, covering Staten Island and South Brooklyn. He was considered one of the top candidates and had strong support.

 

 

 

Gruodžio 2017, the selfless Melson withdrew from the congressional race, volunteering to serve our country in Iraq. In offering to get deployed, Melson assisted another Army Reserve member that received a special opportunity domestically in the Reserve that would greatly benefit her family.

 

 

 

Currently in Iraq, Melson was elated when he was notified of this special honor, which was accepted by his mother Anette, Uncle Leo and retired Coloniel Alessi.

 

 

 

“Here we are. Earning an honor that was a product of me following what my heart beats with divine love, and having to receive this honor in harms way due to me making a choice that is consistent with my heart’s values. I find myself here helping by doing my part to defeat the ugliest and most horrific form of human endeavor I have ever experienced. While doing this, I am highly aware that the people I am helping, who are extremely welcoming and friendly, might look at me through a different lens if they knew I was and am Jewish. It is an interesting paradox. This honor I am receiving is solely dedicated to my Zayda and my Bubbe (grandmother and grandfather).

 

 

 

My Zayda left his body five years ago, and my Bubbe is one of the last Holocaust survivors on this planet. My Zayda was conscripted to serve to fight the Nazis in World War Two. HE SURVIVED. He created a family after surviving that absolute evil, and brought them all here to the United States. I am because of him. I am an American Citizen, born in this great country, because of his courage and strength. I think about this daily with where I am now, and I do mean daily. My Zayda put on a military uniform to fight an evil similar to how I am doing today. His spirit was close to my soul when I made this choice. I know I am being honored for being what I completed as a Jewish professional athlete, and I thank you. Please forgive me however for placing a much greater important at this moment, as an African American, as a Jew, as a West Point Graduate, as an Army Officer, as an athlete, and as a HUMAN BEING, on the narrative I gave above. That is what is sitting on me here. I hope one day, that every individual in this part of the world who we are helping, and who may not have kind feelings towards Jews, learns that Jewish American military servicemen came here and helped them because it was right and because we swore an oath. I see it as my responsibility being Jewish, being an American, and being a soldier.”
