ORANGE, Calif. (Mai 17, 2017) – Blue chip featherweight prospect Ruben Villa (5-0, 3 Kos) headlines an action-packed “Gwaed newydd” undercard when he puts his undefeated record on the line against Anthony de Jesus Ruiz (2-2, 2 Kos) hwn Dydd Gwener, Mai 19, from the Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Calif.
Thompson Boxing’s 17 year anniversary show will be live streamed on its Gwefan ac Facebook Live yn dechrau am 7:45 p.m. PDT Dydd Gwener hwn.
Mae tocynnau ar gyfer “Gwaed newydd” yn costio $40, $60, & $100 and are available for purchase online at ThompsonBoxing.com, neu drwy ffonio 714-935-0900.
Dydd Gwener bout marks the fourth time Villa will fight in front of an expected sold out crowd at the Doubletree Ontario. It will be his first, Fodd bynnag,, fighting on a live streamed show.
“I’m definitely excited for it. It’s great exposure for us new guys trying to make a name for ourselves,” said Villa, who is promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing. “I know a lot of my friends and family will be watching. It also gives an opportunity for boxing fans all over the country to tune in and watch some quality fights.”
Villa, a southpaw, is coming off his East Coast debut in April where we notched his third career knockout win over the previously unbeaten Luis Diaz Torres. Villa stopped the stiff-chinned Torres in the sixth and final round. It was the first, sixth round fight of Villa’s career, one that tough him several impactful lessons.
“It’s important to stick to the plan and listen to my corner,” said the 20-year-old, who hails from Salinas, Calif. “He was somewhat reckless so I needed to show a little more patience with him. I’m used to fighting guys who are a little more technical. Diaz was able to take a shot. He was willing to absorb two or three punches to set up one of his own. I learned not to give him those opportunities.”
Ar gyfer Dydd Gwener six-round bout versus Ruiz, Villa spent most of his training camp sparring at the Robert Garcia Gym in Riverside, widely seen as one of Southern California’s most boxing rich environments. His chief sparring partner was Hector Tanajara, another highly regarded prospect with an undefeated record.
“Aeth gwersyll hyfforddi gwych,” said Villa, who as an amateur won back-to-back National Golden Gloves championships. “I had quality sparring sessions against Hector Tanajara. He fights one division higher than me so it’s always good to learn from guys that are naturally bigger than you.”
While Villa comes from a well-rounded amateur career that saw him bank two wins against fellow high ceiling prospect Shakur Stevenson, the Northern California native is always on the quest to better his skills.
“I’ve been working on using more angles to set up punches,” Villa said. “The goal is to develop better range with my jab so I can be more effective. With Ruiz, I plan to feel him out for the first round and then I’ll start going at his weaknesses. A lot of what I plan to do will come off the jab.”
The live stream, dwyn y teitl “TB Presents: Gwaed newydd,” will be anchored by blow-by-blow announcer Beto Duran with Steve Kim providing expert color commentary.

THE FIGHTING FIREMAN WILL MAKE NEF DEBUT ON JUNE 17

Gadael sylw

 

 

I'W RYDDHAU AR UNWAITH: Lewiston, Maine (Mai 16, 2017) - Ymladd Lloegr Newydd (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Dydd Sadwrn, Mehefin 17, 2017with the fight promotion’s next event, “NEF 29: STARS & STRIPES.” The event will feature a full slate of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Yn gynharach heddiw, NEF announced the addition of a professional boxing bout to the fight card. Jason “The Fighting Fireman” Quirk yn dychwelyd i'r cylch yn erbyn Borngod Washington mewn pedair rownd bout canol super.

 

The fight will represent the first appearance for Quirk in the NEF boxing ring. After a stellar amateur career, Quirk turned pro in late 2014. He has been perfect (5-0, 3 Kos) over the course of his pro career thus far. When Quirk steps into the ring onMehefin 17, it will have been more than a year-and-a-half since his last fight, and he is looking forward to competing once again. He trains out of the Portland Boxing Club (PBC) and works as a firefighter with the Portland Fire Department – Local 740 IAFF. Quirk also served his country for four years as a member of the Coast Guard.

 

“I’m looking forward to getting back in the ring and getting to work,” said Quirk immediately following a training session at PBC. “We’ve had a good camp so far, and I’m training hard for this fight. I’m grateful for NEF considering me for this card and I’m ready to put on a show.”

 

Borngod Washington is about as seasoned of a veteran as one will find in the boxing world. The native of Queens, New York has fought in the pro ranks since 2007. Washington’s career highlight came in 2011 when he scored a fourth-round TKO victory over Ricky Dawson (4-1, 1 KO), brother of former light-heavyweight champion of the world Chad Dawson (34-5, 19 Kos). Washington also took current light-heavyweight contender Sean Monaghan (28-0, 17 Kos) the distance in a four-round bout, losing a majority decision on the judges’ cardiau sgorio. He currently trains with John Wesley Meekins (25-5-2, 17 Kos) yn Efrog Newydd. Meekins challenged Meldrick Taylor (38-8-1, 20 Kos) for the IBF Junior Welterweight Title in 1989.

 

“I’m excited to come to Maine and fight with my new trainer John Wesley Meekins in my corner,” Dywedodd Washington. “I’m returning to form and ready to go, and I thank NEF for the opportunity to fight in Maine. I’ve got people from different areas coming to see the fight, and I know I’ll be ready”.
