Jäta kommentaar

PHILADELPHIA, PENN./ORANGE, Californias. (Oktoober. 19, 2017) – Heralded prospects, sulgkaallaseks Rubeni villa (8-0, 4Kos) and junior lightweight Michael Dutchover (6-0, 4 Kos) will return to action Sel laupäeval night on the non-televised portion of an HBO Boxing After Dark® card at the Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York.
Salinase villa, California võtavad üle 103 fight veteran German Meraz in a featherweight bout, while Dutchover of Santa Fe Springs, California via Midland, Texas will fight Anthony De Jesus Ruiz in a junior lightweight contest.
Villa and Dutchover are co-promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing.
Both are training in Santa Fe Springs, California and are ready for their 2nd appearances on the East Coast.
Each fighter chimed in with thoughts on their respective battles.
“Everything has gone good in training camp. I just fought four weeks ago, but I stay ready and that is the case now. I am ready for Saturday night,” said Villa.
Meraz is by far the most veteran opponent that Villa has faced. He has been in the ring with 25 undefeated opponents and 9 maailmameistrid.
“I just need to be patient against him. He has over 100 fights and knows his way around the ring. If a knockout presents itself then I have to take it, but I want to display my skills.”
Being on a big card has the 20 year-old Villa excited, and he is looking to endear himself to the New York fight crowd.
“I am excited to be fighting on a bigger show. It motivates me to do better and get on the broadcast someday soon. It is very exciting to be on these types of events.”
This will be the ninth bout for Villa in just fifteen months he is very happy about the progress of his career.
“When I signed the plan was to be active, and that has been the case. I would like to get one more fight in this year. But I first I am very excited to put on a great performance laupäeval öösel.”
Dutchover has moved his camp from Texas to California, and the results have been very good as he heads into his bout laupäeval.

“Kõik läheb hästi. I just fought last month, and I felt good. I am ready to go back to the east coast, and put on a great show.”
Like Villa, Dutchover was very impressive in his east coast debut on April 14th, and he is looking to cement himself as one of the top prospects in the junior lightweight division.
“This is nothing new. I have fought on big shows before in the amateurs. The ring is my home. As long as I am in the ring, I will do my thing and put on an impressive performance.”
Even though Dutchover has very little to go on when it comes to scouting Ruiz, Dutchover is already a young veteran and is leaving no stone unturned.
“I do not know much about him, but I am prepared for anything he will bring, and then I will adjust. I have had many different sparring partners with diverse styles, so that gets me ready for any opponent.”
“I planned for this, and I train hard. I am always ready when I get the call for a fight. I am glad that I have been busy, and I have been improving with each fight, and next year should be a good year in my career. I have a mentality that if I train hard, the fight is easy. When I get in the ring, I just like to have fun.”

New boxing chapter to start for former UFC heavyweight title challenger Gabriel “Napao” Gonzaga

Jäta kommentaar
Oktoober 28 Worcester, MA
WORCESTER, Mass. (Oktoober 19, 2017) – The next chapter of former UFC heavyweight title challenger Gabriel “Napao” Gonzaga starts October 28th when he makes his professional boxing debut fighting on the “New England Future 4” kaart, the fourth and final 2017 installment of the popular professional boxing series, “New England tulevik”, to be held at the DCU Center (Exhibition Hall) Worcester, Massachusetts.
“New England’s Future 4” is presented by Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), which is owned and operated by retired three-time, kaks divisjoni maailmameister Jose Antonio Rivera ja tema poeg, Anthonee (AJ) Rivera.
The 38-year-old Gonzaga teaches Brazilian Ju-Jitsu (BJJ) in Worcester and lives nearby in Ludlow (MA). An imposing physical fighter, 6′ 2″, 260-pound Gonzaga (17-11-0, 7 Kos, 9 SUBs, 1 Detsember), omab 4th degree black belt in BJJ. The highlight of his MMA career was at the 2007 UFC 70, held in Manchester, Suurbritannia, in which he knocked out K-1, Pride and Rizen champion Mirko Cro Cop with a head kick in the opening round, positioning Gonzaga for his unsuccessful challenge of UFC Heavyweight Champion Randy Couture in his next fight.
Gonzaga, who retired from MMA 1 ½ years ago, also defeated Ben Rothwell, Shawn Jordan ja Chris Tuchscherer, among the more notable UFC fighters he faced in the Octagon.
(L-R) – Rocky Gonzalez & Gabriel Gonzaga
Gonzago has a new opponent for his four-round bout, Tampa’s pro-debuting Alejandro Esquilin Santiago, who also has a pro MMA background.
“I like challenges in my life,” Gonzaga explained why he’s making his pro debut. “I set new goals because I like to be competitive in sports. I have a good boxing coach who told me I should try. I was a BJJ (Brasiilia Jiu-Jutsu) world champion and UFC title contender. I have good boxing skills and plan to put on a good show. I do have one-punch power and hit hard.
“I started boxing in 2001 and worked at it every day for two years to learn, but then I was competing in MMA. Nüüd, I’m focused on boxing. I think boxing is the hardest part of MMA. I know you can’t make mistakes in boxing and there’s no time to relax. In MMA, I could relax a little at times in clinches, but the referee won’t allow that in boxing. I’ll probably fight more than once but not too many because of my age and I’m not really at the high-level of boxing like I was in MMA.”
Gonzaga’s head boxing trainer, Rocky Gonzalez, has been working with several MMA fighters, including Gonzaga, for more than a decade to help them improve their striking skills. Gonzalez freely admits that Gonzaga knew how to box before he started working with him, crediting Gonzaga’s Muay Thai coach, and that boxing came naturally to the big Brazilian who has made an easy adjustment from the Octagon to the ring. Gonzalez also feels that leg positioning differences for MMA fighters switching to boxing, in terms of throwing proper punches, is somewhat overrated.
“Poks,” Gonzalez ütles, “fighters need their hands like their legs and elbows in MMA. Distance and timing is more important than where their legs and feet are positioned. Gabriel doesn’t like sparring with headgear, nii, his sparring is more like real fighting. He’s been hot with some real shots but he’s responded well. He’s always going to have a puncher’s chance and he’s deceptive because he doesn’t look as fast as he is.
“We didn’t really plan anything but he got this good opportunity. He’s always wanted to turn pro as a boxer and go from there. Gabriel is a good listener who keeps working hard to get better. When he first brought up boxing, he was contracted by the UFC, but we started talking about him boxing after the UFC released him. He knew Jose from him teaching boxing. Gabriel isn’t doing this for the money. He’s a competitive guy who wanted to try boxing.”
Former WBU Americans and IBU North American cruiserweight champion, Vinnie “American Nightmare” Carita (16-1-1, 15 Kos), fighting out of Pembroke (MA), will take on Bolivian heavyweight champion Saul “El Fenjx Asesino” Faraff (64-23-3, 56 Kos) in the eight-round main event.
Hartford’s (CT) popular Richard “Popeye madrus Man” Rivera (3-0, 2 Kos) vastab Hansen Castillo (0-2) in the four-round, co-featured event to be contested at a 180-pound catchweight.
Many of New England’s best and most popular N.E. fighters will be in action, koosnedes 2014 N.E. Golden Kindad meister Adrian “Tonka” Sosa (4-0, 3 Kos), võitlevad välja ümberkaudsetes Lawrence (MA), vs. veteran Norwalk (CT) welterweight Shakha Moore (12-23-3, 2 Kos) aastal kuue vooru mängu.

Siin on, mida võitlejad öelda oli kolmapäev:
MURAT GASSIEV
“Olen Big Bearis kõvasti tööd teinud, California Abel Sancheziga umbes 10 nädalaid selleks võitluseks valmistudes. Oleme seal üleval nagu perekond. Mul on vene vennad, pluss Gennadi Golovkin, kes on mulle kindlasti nagu vanem vend.
“Abel on mind nii palju aidanud. Ta pole püüdnud mu stiili muuta. Ta läks lihtsalt sisse ja muutis mu stiili paremaks. Ta tähendab mulle nii palju.
“Minu viimane võitlus oli mu esimene tiitlivise ja tundsin end hetkel suurepäraselt. Mu närvid olid rahulikud ja ma tunnen, et see on see, milleks ma loodud olen. Ma tahan olla sellel ametikohal väga pikka aega.
“Olen väga tänulik, et sain sellest turniirist osa. Mul on väga hea meel sellest osa saada. See on võimalus olla ühtne maailmameister ja tõestada, et olen divisjoni parim.
“Mu vastasel on palju kogemusi ja ta on olnud palju rasketes võitlustes. Ta on olnud rohkem tülis kui mina, nii et ma pean lihtsalt valmis olema. Olen valmis 12 raundid või lühike võitlus. Selle nimel ma treenin.
“Ma näitan kõigile, mis ma olen laupäeval öö. Ma ei ole suur jutumees, aga ma räägin valjult rusikatega laupäeval.”
KRZYSZTOF WLODARCZYK
“Treeninglaager läks väga hästi ja olen füüsiliselt selleks väljakutseks valmis. Näete, kui tugev ma vaimselt olen, kui ringi pääsen laupäeval.
“Ma pean olema kõigeks valmis. Ma tean, et ta tegi kõvasti tööd, et sinna pääseda ja tegi mulle haiget, nii et pean olema valmis võitlema kõige vastu, mida ta teeb.
“Kõik teavad, et minu kogemus aitab mind. Mul on olnud palju rohkem profimatše kui Gassievil. Kuid ma pean näitama ka nutikat poksi. Ma arvan, et olen intelligentsem võitleja ja näitan seda laupäeval.
“Minu esimene eesmärk on võita ja tulla IBF-i maailmameistriks. See asetaks mind kolmekordse maailmameistrina Poola poksi ajaloos erilisele kohale. Selle turniiri võitmine oleks minu jaoks väga prestiižne ja tulus.
“Suurepäraste Poola fännide toetus on alati suurepärane. Nad toetavad tõesti kõiki oma Poolast pärit poisse. Kuid mul on palju kogemusi, kuidas võistelda maanteel ilma Poola fännideta, nii et see on lihtsalt meeldiv boonus.
“See saab olema stiilide kokkupõrge, Ma ei tea täpselt, kuidas see välja näeb, aga võin garanteerida, et see saab olema põnev.”
MATEUSZ MASTERNAK
“Mul oli hea laager. Minu sparring oli tugev ja jäin Poola treeninguga väga rahule. Lõpetasin oma laagri Londonis uueks sparringuks ja kõik on valmis Laupäev.
“Mul on väga hea vastane. Ta hakkab kasutama oma poksioskusi. Paar aastat tagasi saime omavahel sparri ja see oli hea, kõva sparring kaheksa vooru jooksul. See võib mind aidata laupäeval aga sparring erineb päris võitlusest.
“Minu jaoks on väga oluline USA-s võidelda. ja hästi esineda. Ma ei ole USA-s võidelnud. seitsme aasta pärast nii et ma olen põnevil, et olen tagasi. Olen motiveeritud hästi minema ja jätkama suuri võitlusi.
“Olen sellele vastasele täielikult keskendunud. Pean sinna sisse saama ja oma strateegia eest hoolt kandma. Ma ei tea täpselt, kuidas võitlus läheb, aga ma olen valmis ja pean kõigeks plaani.”
STIVENS BUJAJ
“Tunnen end füüsiliselt täiuslikult. Olen valmis möllama laupäeval öö. Oleme teinud kõik tingimused, sparring ja dieedid, et olla võitlusõhtul õiges asendis. Tegin, mida pidin tegema.
“Olen siin New Yorgis treeninud, peamiselt Bronxis, aga ka ringi liikudes ja parima võimaliku sparringu leidmisel, milleks valmistuda Laupäev.
“Ta on kõva vastane ja ma ei saa teda alahinnata. Olen treeninud, et võita. Ma tulen ühel või teisel viisil esikohale.
“Ma olen Masternakiga varem sparringut teinud, nii et ma tean, millega ma tegelen. Ma lähen sinna ja valin ta lahku. Ta on agressiivne võitleja, kes tuleb ette ja viskab jõulööke, aga ma olen selleks valmis.
“Ma olen nii rahul sellega, kus mu keha sellesse võitlusse läheb. See on parim, mida ma üle pika aja tundnud olen. Õlavigastused on seljataga ja ma olen nüüd terve.
“Ma ei oska öelda, kuidas võitlus välja näeb, aga ma loodan, et kõik tulevad välja Laupäev etendust vaatama. Tunnen end New Yorgi/New Jersey piirkonnas võideldes mugavalt ja ma ei jõua ära oodata, millal saan selle võidu saada.”
MACIEJ SULECKI
“Treeninglaagris oli kõik ideaalne ja tunnen end väga tugevana. Töötasin oma treeneriga hästi ja olime kogu laagri ajal samal lainel. Ma töötasin väga kõvasti ja olen valmis selle suure kaardiga uhkeldama.
“Ma tean, et Culcay oli suurepärane amatöörmeister ja ajutine tšempion professionaalide seas, seega on ta ilmselgelt väga hea võitleja. Kuid ma võidan selle võitluse, sest olen parem ja tugevam, sihikindlam võita.
“Nägin, kuidas Culcay võitles Demetrius Andradega. See oli hea võitlus, aga ma arvan, et Andrade ei esinenud hästi. Culcay kaotas, kuid ta tegi selle väga konkurentsivõimeliseks, nii et ma tean, et ta on väljakutse.
“Ma tunnen end superkeskkaalus paremini kui keskkaalus. Teadsin alati, et võin kaalust alla võtta ja nüüd oli aeg. Seni olen end selle kaalu juures palju tugevamana tundnud.
“Olen täielikult keskendunud Culcayga võitlemisele. Kõigepealt pean Jack Culcayd alistama, aga ma tahan võidelda kõigi diviisi parimate võitlejatega. Jermell Charlo, Erislandy Lara ja Jarrett Hurd, Olen nendeks kõigiks valmis.
“See annab palju lisamotivatsiooni, et võidelda Poola fännide ees. Nad on maailma parimad fännid ja ma olen valmis esinema.”
JACK CULCAY
“Tunnen end füüsiliselt täiuslikult. See oli üks mu parimaid treeninglaagreid üldse. Treenisin umbes viis kuud Saksamaal. Mul oli neli või viis väga kõva sparringupartnerit, kes mind selleks ette valmistasid.
“Sulecki on võitmatu ja see on kõige olulisem asi, mida ma tema kohta tean. Treenisin selleks oma parima ja laupäeval näete parimat parimat.
“Mul on kiirus, Sain jõudu juurde ja näitan Ecuadori ja Saksa stiilide segu. Olin amatööride tšempion ja nüüd saan tšempioniks proffide seas.
“Õppisin Demetrius Andrade vastu, et võin võidelda kõigiga. Võin sellel spordialal võistelda kõigiga. Ma näitan oma kogemusi laupäeval öösel.”
