TUNICA, MS (Márta 14, 2017) – MBoston contender 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) i gcás is mó de Dornálaíocht Seaimpíní Premier TOE-TO-TOE TUESDAYS on FS1 & Seaimpíní Dornálaíochta on FOX Deportes from the Fitz Tunica Casino & Hotel in Tunica, Mississippi.
“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 soicind isteach sa chéad bhabhta.
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 isteach sa bhabhta.
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.

Fáiltíonn Rannán Pan-Mheiriceánach WMMAA roimh Eacuadór ball nua

Leave a comment

 

MONTE CARLO, Monacó (Márta 14, 2017) – An Rannán Pan-Mheiriceánach de Chraobhchomórtais MMA an Domhain (WMMAA) D’fhógair go foirmiúil gur cuireadh Eacuadór le déanaí mar an ball is nua dá chuid.

“Leanaimid orainn ag fás agus gach tír nua ag tabhairt ar aghaidh an ghluaiseacht MMA chomh maith le haitheantas a thabhairt do MMA mar spórt,” Dúirt Tomas Yu, Uachtarán Rannán Pan-Mheiriceánach WMMA. “Bhí mé ag tacú le MMA le fada an lá mar spórt. Ag breathnú ar an ngrúpa mór ceannródaithe seo a chuireann troid iontach ar bun tá sé ar ais go bunúsach agus an rud a léiríonn Martial Arts i ndáiríre: dílseacht, onóir, agus teaghlach.”
Yu ceaptha Gorky E.. Rodriguez mar Uachtarán ar Eacuadór WMMAA. Hector Molina, Stiúrthóir an Choiste Rialála do Rannán Pan-Mheiriceánach WMMAA, oibreoidh sé go dlúth le Rodriguez le linn bhunú Choiste Rialála Eacuadór WMMAA.
“Tá MMA in am criticiúil,” Dúirt Rodriguez. “Mar gheall ar an bhfás pléascach atá air le deich mbliana anuas tá MMA ar an spórt is mó fáis ar domhan, ag éileamh go mbeadh eagraíocht cosúil lenár n-eagraíocht féin ann agus struchtúr neamhchlaonta a chur leis, ní amháin do lúthchleasaithe, ach mar chomhlacht rialála freisin.
“Tá go leor fós ag tarlú ó bunaíodh Eacuadór WMMAA. Déanfaimid go léir ceiliúradh ar ár gcéad rannpháirtíocht, mar fhoireann náisiúnta, i mbliana sna Craobhchomórtais Pan-Mheiriceánacha. Táim ag tnúth le mo thaithí a úsáid agus an méid eolais a thugann Rannán Pan-Mheiriceánach WMMAA go Eacuadór. Roinnfidh mé an fhís le mo chuid iarrachtaí go léir mar a chosnóimid, MMA a chur chun cinn agus a fhormhuiniú mar spórt agus difríocht shuntasach a thabhairt do gach rannpháirtí agus lucht leanúna sa spórt.”

Heavyweight Showdown Between Exciting Contenders

Dornálaíocht Seaimpíní Premier: The Next Round on Bounce on Dé hAoine, Márta 17 from Santander Arena in Reading, PA

DO SCAOILEADH Láithreach

READING, PA (Márta 14, 2017) -Trom Travis “Mo Am” Kauffman (31-1, 23 Kos) has been training hard for his showdown with Amir “Hardcore” Mansour (22-2-1, 16 Kos) that will headline Dornálaíocht Seaimpíní Premier: An Babhta Aghaidh on BounceDé hAoine, Márta 17 from Santander Arena in Reading, PA.

Televised coverage on Bounce begins at 9 p.m. AGUS/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 December 20th and I came home on March 5th,” Dúirt 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 babhtaí, 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, Tá sé 38-0 le 37 knockouts. 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

Welterweight prospect Mohammad Rabii ended his pro debut in grand fashion (photo by Martina Houdek)
CASABLANCA, Maracó (Márta 14, 2017) – Last Saturday night in the Czech Republic, 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Mohammad Rabii experienced a rare “double” as he successfully turned pro and a few hours later became a father for the first time.
The 23-year-old Rabii, fighting out of Morocco, turned in a sensational professional debut, stopadh Lazlow Kovacs II (11-6) ag an 2:35 mark of the opening round at Sportovni Hala Kralovka in Prague.
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) tipped an scála ag 10 punt, 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, the eventual silver medalist. Rabii captured a coveted gold medal at the 2015 AIBA World Amateur Championships, ironically, defeating 2016 Bhuaigh bonn óir Oilimpeach 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 in Casablanca. Mar sin féin, due to reasons beyond the event organizers’ control, that show was unfortunately cancelled.
“I had to reschedule his pro debut for March 11ú against the same opponent, Kovacs,” said Rabii’s manager Gary Hyde, president of Nowwhere2Hyde Management. “Kovacs fights between 154 agus 168 punt, 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, cé, 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. Dé Domhnaigh morning.”

RAHMAN JR. READY TO BEGIN HIS OWN HEAVYWEIGHT LEGACY AT SKYLANDS ECC ON THURSDAY, MÁRTA 23

Leave a comment
Having grown up the son of a former undisputed and two-time World Heavyweight Champion, Hasim Rahman Jr., doesn’t mind that the world will be watching from the beginning of his professional boxing career.
“This isn’t new,” explained Rahman. “I’m so used to being who I am and having eyes on me that it would be awkward to not have them. It hasn’t mattered who I was my whole life, or what I did. The world was watching because of who my father is.”
Rahman Jr., a athair, Hasim “An Rock” Rahman famously knocked out Lennox Lewis in April 2001 to win the WBC and IBF Heavyweight Championships, will make his professional debut against Kansas City’s Brian Imes (1-4, 1 KO) ar Déardaoin, Márta 23, 2017, at Greg Cohen Promotions’ SUPER BRAWL® III, boxing event at the Skylands Event & Conference Center (ECC) in Randolph, New Jersey.
Presented in association with Rising Promotions and GH3 Promotions (sponsored by David Schuster’s Winner Take All Productions), SUPER BRAWL® III will also feature the Bronx, New York’s Halili brothers: power-punching super-welterweight action hero Skender Halili (13-1, 13 Kos) taking on Ecuadorian veteran Eduardo “El Cheíto” Bláthanna (25-25-3, 15 Kos) sa phríomhimeacht ocht mbabhta, and undefeated Enver Halili (8-0, 2 Kos) facing Nicaragua’s Ariel Vasquez (13-16-2, 9 Kos) in the six-round welterweight co-main.
Tickets for SUPER BRAWL® III are priced at Golden Ringside $150, Ringside $100 agus Cead Ginearálta $50 and can be purchased by calling the GCP office: 212.851.6425 nó ar líne ag gcpboxing.com.
“My dad is like an advisor,” he continued. “My dad is the only person I know that truly has my best interests at heart. Anybody else I ever dealt with, it always came down to money at the end of the day. My dad never asks me for anything. I know he knows the game and I know that with him on my team, the sky is the limit.”
25-year-old Rahman is getting a later-than-expected start at his highly-anticipated boxing career. Coming off his successful 100-fight run as an amateur, the buzz was all around the 6′ 3″ 250-lb. fighter, but a fatal car accident in 2012 saw him serving a 2- to 5-year sentence with the Department of Corrections.
Recently released and now ready to go on with life, Rahman says the entire experience changed him for the good. “It was an eye-opener for me. Going through that really changed my career and how I felt as a person, and a son, athair, and a husband. It changed me. I am grateful god blessed me to be in this position today.”
Rahman says he doesn’t know much about first opponent Imes, but he and trainer Kenny Ellis are hard at work at Upton Boxing Center in Baltimore.
“Is dóigh liom go hiontach. I’m really anxious, but the nervousness hasn’t kicked in. It will around fight time. My team says it’s a good fight for me. Being off for two and a half years, I’m looking to get in some rounds.”
Despite the delayed start, Team Rahman has no plan on rushing things.
“I just want to stay busy as I can and learn as much as I can and fight for a world title when I’m ready. I’m not going to rush. There’s no rush. It’s not like I’m going to wait forever. I will fight for the title when I’m ready and I know if it put in the work, I’ll be ready in a about two years. That’s the goal for me. If it takes three or four years, it does. Whatever the case may be. I’ll keep racking up the knockouts until it happens.”
For Rahman, the decision to follow in his famous father’s footsteps was a rational one.
“I’ve always been taught to plan ahead. When I was in middle school, I was really into football. I played tight end, running back and wide receiver. I had dreams. But it dawned on me how many people have the same dream that I do. For instance, there are a million young African American men wanting to go to the NBA every year. 400,000 of them will play high school basketball. 4000 of those will play college. 35 will be drafted. Out of the that 35, ach 7 will start. That means there are a million people trying to get 7 post. And the average career in the NBA is four years. That’s a problem. People have to look at their odds. I did. Mar sin,, I said ‘know what? Instead of being in this giant pool of people trying to be the next Ray Lewis. I rarely run across someone who wants to be heavyweight champion of the world,’ so that’s what I decided to do. No father and son duo have ever become heavyweight champions. It’s never been done. For me to be in the position to cement our family name in heavyweight championship history is very motivating and I’m ready to take full advantage of it.”
Signing with Greg Cohen Promotions was an easy decision, according to Rahman, who has known the Jersey-based promoter for most of his life.
