Can Saunders aconsegueix la seva victòria més impressionant fins a la data sobre Lemieux?

Billy Joe Saunders sortirà al ring el desembre 16 al Canadà com a campió vigent i defensor de la mitjana de la OMB, sent l'orgullós propietari d'un cinturó que va guanyar al desembre 2015 en derrotar el company de viatge Andy Lee.

 

Però des que va destacar l’irlandès Lee amb un èxit de decisió majoritària per convertir-se en campió del món al Manchester Arena, Saunders només l'ha defensat en dues ocasions, amb una decisió unànime triomfa sobre Artur Akavov i Willie Monroe Jr., més recentment.

 

Contra el joc rus Akavov, el títol mundial invicte no va ser ni molt menys impressionant i potser fins i tot afortunat d’aconseguir una decisió tan còmoda al final al Lagoon Leisure Centre, a terra escocesa.. La victòria contra el rival nord-americà Monroe Jr va ser molt millor, després d'haver assumit Dominic Ingle com el seu nou entrenador.

 

Però aquest darrer combat va seguir sent un assumpte trist i no va fer res per afavorir ni impulsar Saunders’ atraure a un públic més ampli, mentre treballava amb comoditat la punyeta sud-americana nascuda a Nova York. Durant la major part de la defensa del títol, amb prou feines el feien treballar, amb Monroe amb un pla de joc estranyament ineficient.

 

No obstant això, el jove de 28 anys afrontarà la seva prova de carrera més dura fins ara contra l'excampió de 160 lliures David Lemieux, un desafiament molt més greu que un Chris Eubank Jr, inexpert i juvenil, un indiferent Andy Lee i el lluny d’amenaçar Willy Monroe Junior.

 

El canadenc Lemieux, de gran èxit, entrarà a les cordes as the evens outsider in the latest boxing odds to prevail on home territory, a promising price for a fighter on a strong surge of victories of late. Since being viciously stopped in a gallant showing against the division kingpin Gennady Golovkin in October 2015, the 28-year-old has earned four consecutive wins, including two big knockouts of Glen Tapia and Curtis Stevens.


Of all the opponents Saunders has gone toe to toe with to date, none have possessed the punching power of Lemieux, and that could be a decisive factor come fight night. The latter home hope is promoted by Oscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy, who are seemingly keen to match the Canadian up with main cash cow Saul ‘CaneloAlvarez next year, rather than throw him in with ‘GGG’ una vegada més en una revenda molt esperada.

 

Tot i ser el favorit per imposar-se i mantenir el seu historial invicte en la que serà la seva primera aventura fora del Regne Unit en la seva carrera professional, sembla que les probabilitats estan realment apilades contra Saunders per a aquesta última trobada.

 

Ha estat evident, massa, que Saunders no compta amb la potència massiva capaç de mantenir un Lemieux de peu de flota lluny de les zones de perill durant tot el seu partit. L’artista Knockout Lemieux va produir el que finalment es podria votar com a aturada de l’any al març quan va posar brutalment Stevens’ llums apagades a la ciutat de Nova York.

 

Podria haver-hi un altre èxit de detenció cruel a les cartes del territori nacional?? Depèn de Saunders i Ingle executar el seu pròxim pla de joc perfectament per assegurar la que seria una victòria molt impressionant a la carretera, però sembla que serà una nit realment de proves al Quebec.

Granite Chin’sRumble at The RIM” RESULTATS OFICIALS

Richard “Popeye the Sailor Man” Rivera
Good to finish because he eats his spinach
Russell Kimber wins pro debut
HAMPTON, N.H. (Desembre 9, 2017) — Colorful light heavyweight prospect Richard “Popeye el mariner” Rivera romàs invicte (5-0, 4 KOs), veterà Roberto “El Vell” Valenzuela, last night (Dissabte) al “Rumble at The RIM” esdeveniment principal, presentat per Granite Chin Promotions, at The RIM Sports Complex in Hampton, New Hampshire.
Rivera, fighting out of Hartford (Connecticut), controlled the action from the opening bell against his battle-tested opponent from Mexico, who had a tremendous experience advantage in his 147º pro fight, compared to Rivera’s fifth.
Valenzuela spent most of the time on the ropes, while Rivera teed-off on him, until a beautiful placed left hook by Rivera decked Valenzuela, who failed to get up until after referee Mike Ryan completed the 10-count.
A busload of Rivera’s fans drove five hours from Hartford through a snowstorm, arriving just before Rivera entered the ring. “That means a lot to me,” Rivera smiled as he spoke about his fans. “We’re more than a gym, som família.
I was so used to an amateur style but now I’m a pro. I’m relaxing and picking my punches. Següent, I want to win the New England title. It’s vacant and I want it!”
This was our first show in New Hampshire and I consider it a success,” co-promoter Chuck Shearns dit, “despite some things going against us like tonight’s weather. We’re grateful for the support we received from Hampton, New Hampshire, the commission and local businesses. They worked with us and we can’t wait to return.
The son and nephew of multiple-time world kickboxing championsfather Tommy and uncleworked his cornerPeabody, Massachusetts Russell Kimber had a promising pro debut against tough Nathan Schulte in a match contested at a 185-pound catchweight. The 32-year-old Kimber, who was the crowd favorite having lived several years in New Hampshire, overcame the determined Schulte for a hard-fought victory by way of a four-round majority decision.
I was a little nervous with this being my first time in a pro ring,” Kimber admitted after his fight. “I hadn’t been in a ring for 1 ½ years and there was some ring rust. Ara, I know what I need to good, and I’ll be a lot better next fight. This was my first camp and I’ve learned a lot. I’d like to stay busy, come back in late January, early February.
Undefeated Whitman, MA junior welterweight prospect Micro “Bad ManOhan, Jr.charged across the ring, unloading a powerful right that immediately sent Bardraiel Smith to the canvas. Smith somehow got to his feet but Ohan quickly ended Smith’s night, only 30-second into round one, as referee Ryan waved off the action.
New England cruiserweight champion and the show’s co-promoter, Iraq War veteran Chris Traietti (25-5, 19 KOs) outclassed Fabian Valdez en route to a win by second-round knockout in a stay-busy fight to close out 2017. In a non-title fight contested at a 185-pounds catchweight, the Quincy, MA-based Traietti floored his game Mexican opponent with a straight right midway through the opening round, closing the show in the second round with a series of unanswered punches.
The only New Hampshire native on the card, Claremont junior middleweight Ricky Ford(1-1-1) won his first pro fight, taking a lop-sided, four-round unanimous decision over pro MMA fighter Andy Aiello, who made his pro boxing debut.
In another stay-busy fight, former world-rated Ryan “El príncep polonès” Kielczweski(27-3, 9 KOs), fighting out of Quincy (Massachusetts), needed only 51-seconds to finish off Mexican lightweight Francisco “El MonoMedal. Kielczweski hit Medal with a with a lethal left to the body, leaving Medal in obvious pain and unable to rise before the 10-count.
New Jersey middleweight Chris “Sandman” Thomas (7-0-1, 4 KOs) kept his unbeaten pro record intact with a second-round stoppage of Demetrius Thomas. Thomas used a rapid-fire combination to drop Thomas, who beat the count, but he was getting hammered when referee Ryan stopped the fight late in the second round.

LFA 30 – Millender vs. Barnes takes place Divendres, January 12th at Costa Mesa Hall at OC Fair Grounds in Costa Mesa, Califòrnia.

LFA caps the month of January with a pair of title fights in southern Louisiana. En l'esdeveniment principal, former LFA title challenger BrendanAll InAllen faces top undefeated prospect AnthonyFluffyHernandez for the vacant LFA middleweight title. En la baralla co-estel·lar, red-hot Ryan “Superhome” Spann will lock horns with UFC vet AlexThe SpartanNicholson for the inaugural LFA light-heavyweight title. LFA 32 – Allen vs. Hernandez takes place Divendres, 26 de de gener de at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, Louisiana.
The entire main card of all three of these events will be televised live and nationwide on AXS TV at 9 p.m. I / 6 p.m. PT.
I’m excited to kick off 2018 with three straight weeks of LFA action across the country”, Declarat Soares. “Curtis Millender and Nick Barnes are coming off big wins in LFA headliners and will meet in the main event of LFA 30 in southern California on January 12th. The following week, we head to Arizona with top contenders Bobby Moffett and Thanh Le meeting for the interim featherweight title in the main event LFA 31. We finish the month with two title fights at LFA 32 in southern Louisiana. Brendan Allen faces Anthony Hernandez for the vacant middleweight title in the main event and Ryan Spann will take on Alex Nicholson for the inaugural light-heavyweight title in the co-headliner.
Mill Ends (13-3) returns home to the building where he fought and won his first seven fights. The Orange County juggernaut is looking to build off a perfect 2017 where he won three fights, including back-to-back LFA headliners. His most recent win came via highlight reel Head Kick KO in the main event of LFA 24. Millender will meet Barnes (12-2) in a long-awaited showdown between two of southern California’s finest. The welterweight stars started their careers in the southern California regional circuit, moved on to Bellator, and will finally meet in the main event of LFA 30. Barnes, like Millender, is coming off an impressive win in an LFA headliner.
L'esdeveniment principal del LFA 31 is a fight that casual fans and MMA purists alike are salivating over. It pits a rugged and accomplished BJJ black belt in Moffett (10-2) against one of the most dynamic strikers in all of MMA in Le (7-1) with the LFA interim featherweight title on the line. En paper, this is a textbook grappler vs. striker bout at its highest form. No obstant això, both men bring so much more to the table than what their respective martial arts backgrounds represent. Moffett, who trains out of The MMA Lab, has shown a willingness to throw down with anyone, while Le trains with BJJ wunderkind and UFC star Ryan Hall in northern Virginia.
LFA will conclude its busy month of January with a pair of title tilts in southern Louisiana. LFA standout and Louisiana native Allen (8-2) will get a second shot at LFA gold after going five rounds with current UFC star Eryk Anders for the inaugural LFA middleweight title in June. Allen quickly rebounded six weeks later with a submission win in the co-main event of LFA 18. He will face another highly-touted undefeated prospect for the title. This time it comes in the form of the northern California destroyer Hernandez (5-0). L'home conegut com “Fluffyhas finished everyone he has faced inside the first round.
L'esdeveniment co-principal de LFA 32 will crown the inaugural LFA light-heavyweight champion. Spann (12-5) is a former Legacy FC title challenger that will look to capture LFA gold in front of his home crowd. “Superhome” is riding considerable momentum heading into this fight after dispatching a pair of top contenders in the first round of his last two bouts at LFA 23 and LFA 27. He will face Nicholson (10-4) who has been a man on fire since his four-fight run with the UFC ended in May. The Florida native has been a tour de force since then as he looks to make his way back. In the past two months, “The Spartanhas knocked out three quality opponents in grand total of 3 minutes and 28 segon.
Al setembre 2016, Legacy FC and RFA officials announced that they would be merging to form the premier developmental organization in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) a partir del gener 2017. Legacy FC and RFA have launched the careers of over 150 atletes que han assolit el pinacle de MMA en competir en l'UFC.
