TÚNICA, SRA (Marzo 14, 2017) – Contendiente de peso medio Sergiy Derevyanchenko (10-0, 8 KOs) remained unbeaten Tuesday night as he delivered a blistering fifth-round stoppage of previously undefeated Kemahl Russell (10-1, 8 KOs) en el evento principal de Liga de Campeones de Boxeo TOE-TO-TOE TUESDAYS on FS1 & BOXEO DE CAMPEONES on FOX Deportes from the Fitz Tunica Casino & Hotel en Tunica, Misisipí.
I was so happy to be back in the ring,” said Derevyanchenko. “I felt very good in there. Once I got going and sped it up, he couldn’t keep up with me. I’m ready to take on anyone.
The unbeaten Russian, who fights out of Brooklyn, was at a major height disadvantage against the six-foot Russell, who attempted to control the fight with his jab from a distance. This led to a slow-paced fight early, which seemed to favor the taller boxer.
Derevyanchenko would eventually find the distance as he used double left hooks and feints to work inside Russell’s jab. Round four saw the two men begin to exchange in more flurries dangerous on the inside, with Russell taking the brunt of the damage.
Now fully settled into the fight, Derevyanchenko began to unload in round five and connected on a huge straight right hand that rocked Russell’s head back and put his opponent in immediate peril. Derevyanchenko pounced on the opportunity and began landing big shots in succession until referee Bill Clancy jumped-in to stop the fight 1:06 into the fifth-round.
The co-main event of the night saw undefeated prospect Ahmed Elbiali (15-0, 12 KOs) make quick work of Brazil’s Jackson Junior (20-8, 19 KOs) as he scored a first round knockout just1:33 segundos en la primera ronda.
Elbiali was returning from a 14-month layoff after recovering from a broken hand, but he wasted no time trading big punches. Both men were aggressive early on and dealt big hooks from the opening bell.
Working off of his jab, Elbiali caught Junior in a defensive crouch and connected with a perfect overhand right to the temple that sent Junior to the canvas. Junior was able to get to his feet but was deemed unable to continue by the referee, who called a halt to the bout 1:33 en la ronda.
The opening bout of the telecast saw unbeaten prospect Jamontay Clark (11-0, 7 KOs) stop a game Gaku Takahashi (15-7-1, 7 KOs) after seven rounds of action in their welterweight bout.
Cincinnati’s Clark survived an early stumbled as Takahashi connected with a jab that stunned and stumbled Clark midway through the first round. Clark was able to regain his footing and use his jab as his primary mode of attack.
The southpaw Clark began timing Takahashi with left hands and right hooks and was able to control the action each round. Takahashi attempted to match Clark’s punch output, specifically targeting his opponent to the body, but was unable to land enough clean blows.
Takahashi came out aggressive in round seven and initiated several big exchanges. It was Clark who got the better of these moments, hitting Takahashi with a big left hand late in the round that left his opponent temporarily stunned, although able to return to his corner. Takahashi’s corner had seen enough however and called an end to the fight at the end of the seventh round.

Travis Kauffman training camp notes

Heavyweight Showdown Between Exciting Contenders
Travis Kauffman & Amir Mansour Headlines
Liga de Campeones de Boxeo: The Next Round on Bounce on Viernes, Marzo 17 desde el Santander Arena en Reading, Pensilvania
9 p.m. Y/6 p.m. PT
ENTRADAS A LA VENTA CON EMPRESA

PARA PUBLICACION INMEDIATA

LEYENDO, Pensilvania (Marzo 14, 2017) -De peso pesado Travis “My Time” Kauffman (31-1, 23 KOs) has been training hard for his showdown with Amir “Duro” Mansour (22-2-1, 16 KOs) that will headline Liga de Campeones de Boxeo: La Ronda Siguiente en reboteViernes, Marzo 17 desde el Santander Arena en Reading, Pensilvania.

La cobertura televisada en Bounce comienza en 9 p.m. Y/6 p.m. PT

Kauffman trained in Houston, Texas with famed trainer Naazim Richardson, and is ready for the hard punching Mansour.

Evertything is great. I was in Houston starting on 20 de diciembre and I came home on March 5th,” dijo Kauffman.
I have been motivated knowing that I have a killer in front of me. Amir wants what I want, and that is a shot at the Heavyweight title.
Kauffman has sacrificed a whole lot for this fight, as he missed important family moments in order to give himself the best opportunity to put his family in the best situation in the long run.
I missed the holidays with my family. I also missed my sons birthday. I have never done that before. This has motivated me, and gives me such a mental edge and a bigger purpose for this fight.
Being that Kauffman and Mansour (who has trained a majority of his career in Philadelphia) are only geographically separated by an hour, Kauffman knew this fight was bound to happen, and always visualized a fight with Mansour.
I have always been confident that I could beat him. I was down in Texas working hard, and now I am in better shape, but I know when I win it will get me to the next level.

That next level would be a shot at one of the heavyweight champions, and just on February 25th, WBC Heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder took out Gerald Washington in 5 rondas, for which many thought the champion showed some flaws, which Kauffman thinks he could exploit more should that match up occur.

I watched the Wilder fight. I did expect Washington to present some problems for him, But Washington doesn’t have the experience. Deontay can punch, but Gerald showed that Deontay can be beat. He showed that Deontay is the most amateurish Heavyweight champion ever, but you have to give the man credit, él es 38-0 con 37 nocauts. He can punch and has a beautiful jab.
But before a fight with Wilder or one of the other beltholders, Kauffman knows he has a tough task in front of him in Mansour.
This fight will put me in the top-five. I just want to win this and fight one of the champions. I don’t care who I fight. I been working so hard in this fight so expect a better Travis Kauffman.

World amateur champion Mohammad Rabii Wins pro debut & becomes first-time father within hours

Rabii entered the ring knowing his wife, Imane Imari, was in labor. “On the way to the arena,” Rabii explained, “I received a call that my wife was in labor and my son was coming soon. The fight couldn’t come quick enough for me. I was very excited but I had to concentrate on my first fight as a pro because it was such a big moment for me. The news later that my son had arrived was reason for a double celebration.
Every time I connected on Kovacs, I could see that it was affecting him. I knew it was all over because I hit him with a big punch that me and my coach, Donald Leary, had worked on in training camp. I cannot wait for my next fight in April.
Rabii’s son (unnamed at this writing) punta de la escala en 10 libra, 3 ounces. He and his mother are both in good health.
Rabii was one of the leading pro prospects coming of the Olympic Games in Brazil. He had dropped a highly-disputed decision (0-3) in the semifinals to Uzbekistan boxer Shakhram Giyasov, el eventual medallista de plata. Rabii captured a coveted gold medal at the 2015 AIBA World Amateur Championships, irónicamente, derrotando 2016 Medallista de oro olímpico daniyar yeleussinov in the welterweight division championship final.
Rabbi had planned to make his pro debut prior to the arrival of his baby, who was due February 18, training in Cork, Ireland for his originally scheduled pro debut February 28 en Casablanca. Sin embargo, due to reasons beyond the event organizerscontrol, that show was unfortunately cancelled.
I had to reschedule his pro debut for March 11º against the same opponent, Kovacs,” said Rabii’s manager Gary Hyde, president of Nowwhere2Hyde Management. “Kovacs fights between 154 y 168 libra, which is much heavier than the 147-pound welterweight division in which Rabii fights.
Mohammad learned during his warm-up for the fight that his wife was in labor and close to delivering his first child. He had other things to take care of before concentrating on his family affairs, wasting no time as he annihilated Kovacs until dropping his Hungarian opponent hard near the end of the opening round. Czech spectators gasped as Rabii’s thunderous punches connected. Kovacs somehow got to his feet to beat the count but he was visibly shaken and the referee wisely stopped the fight. Rabii had no time to celebrate, aunque, as he rushed to contact his family back in Morocco, happily learning his wife had given birth to the couple’s baby boy at 7 a.m. Domingo morning.

25-Rahman, de un año, está comenzando más tarde de lo esperado en su tan esperada carrera de boxeo.. Saliendo de su exitosa carrera de 100 peleas como aficionado, el zumbido estaba en todo el 6′ 3″ 250-libras. combatiente, pero un fatal accidente automovilístico en 2012 lo vi sirviendo un 2- a una sentencia de 5 años con el Departamento de Correcciones.
Lanzado recientemente y ahora listo para seguir con la vida, Rahman dice que toda la experiencia lo cambió para bien. “Fue un abridor de ojos para mí.

A pesar del retraso en el inicio, El equipo Rahman no tiene planes de apresurar las cosas.
“Solo quiero mantenerme ocupado lo más que pueda y aprender todo lo que pueda y luchar por un título mundial cuando esté listo.. No me voy a apresurar. No hay prisa.

Si toma tres o cuatro años, lo hace. Cualquiera sea el caso. Seguiré acumulando nocauts hasta que suceda.”
Para Rahman, la decisión de seguir los pasos de su famoso padre fue racional.
“Siempre me han enseñado a planificar el futuro. Cuando estaba en la secundaria, Realmente me gustaba el futbol. Jugué ala cerrada, corredor y receptor ancho. Tuve sueños. Pero me di cuenta de cuántas personas tienen el mismo sueño que yo.. Por ejemplo, hay un millón de jóvenes afroamericanos que quieren ir a la NBA cada año. 400,000 de ellos jugarán baloncesto de la escuela secundaria. 4000 de ellos jugarán en la universidad. 35 será redactado. Fuera de eso 35, solamente 7 empezará. Eso significa que hay un millón de personas tratando de conseguir 7 Trabajos. Y la carrera promedio en la NBA es de cuatro años.. Eso es un problema. La gente tiene que mirar sus probabilidades. yo hice. Así, Dije 'sabes que? En lugar de estar en este grupo gigante de personas tratando de ser el próximo Ray Lewis. Rara vez me encuentro con alguien que quiera ser campeón mundial de peso pesado.,’ así que eso es lo que decidí hacer. Ningún dúo de padre e hijo se ha convertido en campeón de peso pesado. Nunca se ha hecho. Para mí, estar en la posición de cimentar nuestro apellido en la historia del campeonato de peso pesado es muy motivador y estoy listo para aprovecharlo al máximo.”
Firmar con Greg Cohen Promotions fue una decisión fácil, según Rahman, que ha conocido al promotor con sede en Jersey durante la mayor parte de su vida.

“Realmente quiero agradecer a Greg Cohen por la oportunidad que me ha dado.,” él dijo. “Conozco a Greg desde que era un niño y él siempre ha creído en mí.. Siempre me ha apoyado y se ha mantenido en contacto y me ha seguido.. Él tiene un interés genuino en mí.. Greg ya sabe que tiene el mejor nuevo peso pesado del mundo. Estoy realmente dedicado a hacer que él, mi padre y la ciudad de Baltimore se sientan orgullosos.”
