IBF Heavyweight World Champion Anthony Joshua and American challenger Eric Molina worked out for the British press op dinsdag in Manchester, Engeland, as they prepare to square off deze zaterdag at Manchester Arena live on SHOW TIME® (5:30 p.m. EN/2:30 p.m. PT).

 

The SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL® presentation originates from Galen Center at USC in Los Angeles, site of that evening’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast. WBC zwaargewicht wereldkampioen Deontay Wilder will join host Brian Custer and analysts Al Bernstein en Paulie Malignaggi as part of the SHOWTIME announce team for Joshua vs. Molina.

 

Undefeated sensation and 2012 Olympic Gold Medalist Joshua (17-0, 17 KO) will make the second defense of his title against Molina (25-3 19 KO), a Texas native getting his second shot at a belt in his quest to become the first Mexican-American heavyweight world champion.

 

An encore presentation of Joshua vs. Molina will air as part of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast later that evening, following the main event showdown between WBA Featherweight World Champion Jezus Cuellar and three-division former champ Abner Mares. In de co-functie, Jermall Charlo will defend his IBF Junior Middleweight World Championship against fellow-undefeated challenger Julian Williams.

 

Here is what Joshua and Molina had to say during fight week:

 

ANTHONY JOSHUA

 

“Eric is coming here to win and he’s got a goal in his sights and dreams to fulfill. I want to shatter his dreams and keep that title. He gave Wilder a real test, rocked him, and boxed through the fight with an injury. So he’s got ability, power and heart.

“Eric has only lost to the best. He’s looked at as an underdog because a lot of it is about hype. This is his chance to announce himself. He might say he can beat me, but we won’t know until the night if he can pull it off.

 

“This fight isn’t about Deontay Wilder. Deontay is supposed to be this KO artist with one-punch power and he’s been a pro for eight years now so he’s got vast experience in the game. Eric put up a great fight against him and watching it I thought ‘that’s the type of guy that I want to be in.’ Someone that fights with their heart on their sleeve, that’s why we’re here now. It’ll be a comparison in the back of my mind but that doesn’t make me a better fighter than him or vice versa if I do better or worse than Deontay.

 

“A man that gets up after being knocked down has my full respect and he has shown he has massive heart. His mentality is that he’s got nothing to lose, and that makes him dangerous. There’s been upsets in the past but that’s not happening at this stage of my career.

 

“Molina is Wladimir Klitschko, he is David Haye, he is Wilder. He is a hurdle I have to overcome. It’s not about them, it’s about me. I won’t disrespect Eric, but I don’t play games, I come to dominate. I don’t care how long the fight with Molina goes; one or 12 rondes, I just need to dismantle my opponent.

 

“I’m not fighting Klitschko. He’s going to be there op zaterdag, as is Haye, but they’re not in front of me. Mijn carrière, my discipline and my consistency, that’s the package that we’ve been sending out to the rivals and that speaks louder than any performance op zaterdag. ik wil winnen, I want to look good and I want to entertain — but the most important thing for me is going in there and doing the job.

 

“I’m not learning in the shadows, I’m under the bright lights on Box Office in the UK and on SHOWTIME in the U.S. I have to perform every time that I box. There’s so many wolves in the pack that want to come and destroy what I’ve built.

 

“We’re close to getting some huge fights. If I get through Zaterdag then I fight Klitschko; it doesn’t get much bigger, so the division is moving forward. People have just got to be patient and enjoy the ride.

 

"De V.S.. is a big market for me and I am sure it won’t be long until I make my U.S. debuut. Whether that’s against Wilder, we zullen zien. He’s got the injury to recover from. I have a lot of people asking me when we’re taking the show to the States, but I don’t think they mean Alabama! They are hoping for Las Vegas, Ik denk — that’s a trip we’d all love to make.”

 

ERIC MOLINA

 

“Knockout is the only way I am going to win. I’m not here to take it on points, I am here to put him on the floor and take his belt. Any heavyweight can KO any other heavyweight, and I can KO Joshua. I’m a hard-punching heavyweight so I am extremely confident.

 

“I’m unpredictable – and any man in this division can be KO’d on any night. To become champion, that’s the ultimate goal, and I think I have what it takes to knock him out.

 

“Joshua has great balance, he’s athletic, tall, uses his reach – but there are things about him we don’t know yet and he knows it, ook. We know he can punch and has the attributes to become a legend, but that missing piece of the puzzle is the chin. Can he take a punch? He hasn’t taken anything up to this date. A good boxing puncher can KO you with a shot at any given moment.

 

“I don’t question his stamina, but I do want to see him take a good shot. It’s the big question – and I’ve hurt everybody that I’ve been in the ring with. Does he have grit and determination? We’ll find out.

 

“I’ve been an underdog all my life so it doesn’t faze me. Joshua is young, hij is sterk, he’s got all the attributes of a great champion. But there are a lot of things that he’s yet to experience in the ring, and that’s what I have to capitalize on. Eventually he has to go through those things and get taken to those places that he hasn’t been yet. I have to take him there to win.

 

“Who else in the last 18 months is going to fight Joshua and Wilder? Who is willing to do that to win? No one wants to get in with this guy. This is my route to get the world title. It’s not about Klitschko, it’s about me. Any man can be destroyed on any given night. Joshua knows that’s true. He’s got to beat me to get the fight, but I have a great chance to KO this guy.

 

“I don’t pay too much notice to what people think. When I fought Wilder the whole world gave me one round — dat is het. He’s going down in one round, he’s going to get blasted away. I’ve heard it all before, all the negative feedback. Let people think what they want, I feed off it. I have nothing to lose in a fight like this and everything to gain. It’s a very dangerous fight and the type of fight that I really perform in.

 

“Dillian Whyte has given Joshua his toughest test so far, then probably (Dominic) Breazeale. He hasn’t been pushed. He hasn’t been taken to a place where he’s had to dig deep. There are some holes in his game that we feel we can execute and hurt him.

 

“Lots of people didn’t want the fight; it’s a business and I wanted it. I’ve shared the ring with Wilder and now I’m going in with Joshua. These aren’t just words; I’m putting it into action, there’s a difference.

 

“Wilder is the most dangerous heavyweight in the world, Tyson Fury is the most skilled, the combination of both would beat Johsua. The most feared is Luis Ortiz. You have the heavyweights that no one wants to get in with. Everyone is calling everyone out, but when it comes down to it, it means nothing if you don’t get in there. You just have a certain bunch of guys that don’t want to fight another bunch of guys.

 

“Against Wilder I learned that I can get up. I can fight back and still win rounds. I learned I can fight through an injury; that I can bite down on the gumshield and give more than I ever thought I could give. It was a big stage against Wilder in his backyard so I’ve been on the big stage before. It doesn’t concern me at all – been there, gedaan. I’ve lost on the big stage but I’ve also won on the big stage.”

TOP PROSPECT ED RUTH JOINS THIS FRIDAY’S ‘BELLATOR 168’ CARD IN FLORENCE FOR HIS SECOND FIGHT IN AS MANY MONTHS

Laat een reactie achter

 

SANTA MONICA, CALIF (December. 6, 2016) – It was announced today that one of MMA’s hottest prospects, En Ruth (1-0), will waste no time continuing to build his resume, as he fights Emanuele Palombi (5-2) for his second fight in as many months. The bout takes place deze vrijdag bij "Bellator 168: Sakara vs. Beltran," op December. 10 from the Mandela Forum in Florence and will air LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 4pm ET/PT.

 

Op slechts 26 jaar oud, Ruth is looking to pave the way for the other members of “The New Breed," a group of highly accomplished wrestlers who have all signed to fight under the Bellator MMA banner including: Joey Davis (1-0), Tyrell Fortune (1-0), Jarod Trice (1-0) evenals Aaron Pico en Romero Katoen – the last of which have yet to make their highly anticipated professional debuts. Before he was a three-time National Champion and four-time All-American wrestler at Penn State University, Ruth attended the world-renown Blair Academy in Susquehanna Township, PA, where he was the top-ranked recruit in the nation for his weight class. Having achieved great success at every stage of competition throughout his life, Ruth aspires to have the Bellator middleweight gold around his waist before long. After making the move across the country to Fresno, Calif., where he now trains at Dethrone Basecamp with other Bellator MMA fighters like Josh Koscheck en Chris Honeycutt, Ruth made his professional MMA debut just last month on November. 4, when he finished Dustin Collins-Miles with strikes at 3:19 in de eerste ronde.

 

Ruth now faces Rome’s Palombi, a seven-fight veteran with five victories including three KO’s and one submission. Ruth, who is taking the fight on less than a week’s notice, must quickly learn how to tune out a hometown crowd, who will certainly be heavily in favor of the Italian fighter.

 

The evening is highlighted by a main event featuring Italy’s most renowned mixed martial artist Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC), who will duke it out with Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 NC) in a light heavyweight main event. Other Bellator MMA competitors will also be in action, inclusief John Salter (12-3), Yamauchi up (31-9) en Philipe Lins(10-1).

 

The Bellator Kickboxing brand will also be on display in Italy with a card that features a female flyweight rematch between Denise Kielholtz (45-3) en Gloria Peritore (11-1-1), but this time, a world title will be on the line. "Bellator Kickboxing: Florence” will also include a lightweight clash between Giorgio Petrosyan (82-2-2, 1 NC) and British kickboxing champion Jordan Watson (48-11-2), a middleweight matchup pitting Joe Schilling (19-9) tegen Victorio Lermano (30-7), a welterweight contest pairing Luca Novello (22-4-2) met Karim Ghajji (96-13-1), en Kevin Ross(31-9) ontmoet Alessio Arduini (26-14-2) in een lichtgewicht gevecht. "Bellator Kickboxing: Florence” airs Vrijdag, December. 16 bij 11:15 pm ET, immediately following "Bellator 169: Koning Mo vs. Ishii.”

 

Complete "Bellator 168: Sakara vs. Beltran” Card:

Light Heavyweight Feature Vecht: Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC) vs. Joey Beltran (17-13, 1 NC)

Ringstar Sports Continues to Grow by Adding 2016 Mexicaanse Olympian & Bronze Medalist Misael Rodriguez to Growing Stable of Fighters

Laat een reactie achter
LOS ANGELES (December 7, 2016) – The recently formed promotional company, Bel Star Sports, added another future world champion to its growing stable of fighters today with the announcement that 2016 Mexican Olympian and Bronze medalist Misael Rodriguez has signed with the company led by longtime boxing executive Richard Schaefer.
“I’m thrilled to be adding another promising young potential super star in Misael Rodriguez to the Ringstar lineup,” zegt Richard Schaefer, Voorzitter en CEO van Ringstar Sports. “This is a young man who has overcome every obstacle thrown his way. He is mentally strong, has great skills and I expect him to have a very long, successful career. I’m looking forward to helping Misael and his family achieve their goals and I hope to make him a household name in the sport.”
“After I came back from the Olympics, I knew that it was time to start my professional career,” Said Rodriguez. “I am excited to have signed with Ringstar Sports. I have always appreciated Richard Schaefer’s approach on developing talent in to boxing stars. When the time came, picking my promoter was easy. I knew that this is where I wanted to be.
“I look forward to showing the world the passion and heart I have for the sport I love,” continued Rodriguez. “Becoming a world champion has always been a childhood dream, and now it is my number one goal.”
The 22-year-old Rodriguez was the only Mexican fighter at the Olympics to bring home a medal as he earned his bronze by putting on a great performance in the middleweight division against Egypt’s Hosam Bakr Abdin. The path for Rodriguez was a long and arduous one before Rio as the Chihuahua-native and his teammates had to resort to “begging” on public buses and streets in Mexico to raise money to compete in international boxing tournaments.
Despite these long odds, Rodriguez won the first Olympic boxing medal for Mexico since Christian Bejerano in 2000. His impressive amateur career saw him win 104 van 126 fights and compete in numerous tournaments after joining the Mexican National Team in 2013, including a Senior National Championship.
Rodriguez picked up bronze medals in 2014 at La Romana Cup, the Independence Cup and the Panamerican Sports Festival in addition to a silver at the Veracruz Central American and Caribbean games. He continued to improve and won bronze at the American Confederation Championship and Toronto Panamerican Games in 2015. Eindelijk, in 2016 he earned a silver medal at the American Olympic Qualifier before going to Rio and taking home the bronze medal.

ZWARE GEWICHTEN BEREIDEN ZICH VOOR OP OORLOG BIJ NEF 27

Laat een reactie achter

 

Lewiston, Maine (December 7, 2016) -nieuwe Engeland Fights (NEF) keert terug naar de Androscoggin Bank Colisee op Februari 11, 2017 met haar volgende mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 27: Weer zijn toegenomen.” Eerder vandaag, de vechtpromotie kondigde de toevoeging van een professionele wedstrijd aan de kaart aan. Ras “Rasquatch” Hylton (0-0) zal zijn professionele debuut te maken tegen Mike “De Snor” Hansen (5-4) in de zwaargewicht divisie.

 

Hyltons nu legendarische opkomst door de rangen van de amateur-zwaargewichtdivisie in NEF is een van de belangrijkste verhalen van 2016. Op 6'6″ en torenhoog boven de MMA-kooi uit, Hylton slaat een imposant figuur. Het enige dat indrukwekkender is dan de grootte en het uiterlijk van Hylton, zijn misschien zijn atletische vaardigheden. Een productieve spits, Hylton eindigde dit jaar alle drie zijn tegenstanders door knock-out of technische knock-out.

 

“Rasquatch,” of zoals sommige fans hem noemen “De Jamaicaanse klaver,” begon echt wenkbrauwen op te trekken met een hoogtepunt-reel head kick knock-out van Matt Glover (1-1) vorige lente. Vervolgens, vorige maand bij “NEF 26,” Hylton sloeg een extreem stoere Kevin Smith (3-3) tot een bloederige pulp. Het was onmiddellijk na die dominante prestatie dat de coaches van Hylton bij First Class MMA en Dragon Fire Martial Arts vonden dat de tijd rijp was voor hem om de sprong naar de professionele rangen te maken..

 

“Ik ben zo dankbaar dat ik in het bijzijn van mijn familie en vrienden tegen een man van Mike Hansens statuur vecht,” zei Hylton. “Als de eerste professionele jager die uit zowel Dragon Fire Martial Arts als First Class MMA komt, en met de instructie van Shihan Andy Campbell, John “Eerste Klas” Raio en mijn team, we bereiden ons voor om ten strijde te trekken, want dat is wat Mike altijd meeneemt naar de kooi.”

 

Een voormalig kampioen zwaargewicht worstelen in de staat Maine van Mountain Valley High School, Mike Hansen is er nooit voor terugdeinzen om een ​​gevecht aan te gaan met iemand die groter is dan hij. In feite, Hansen, die ook concurreert in de licht-zwaargewicht en middengewicht divisies, heeft een reputatie opgebouwd als een beetje een “reuzendoder.”

 

Eerder dit jaar, Hansen diende een aanzienlijk grotere Jesse Baughman in (0-2) in de eerste ronde om “NEF 22.” Hij volgde die indrukwekkende prestatie op door bijna een veel grotere Brendan Battles uit te schakelen (1-1) met een rechterhand naar “NEF 23.” Dit najaar gaf Hansen bijna een halve voet af aan Matt Andrikut (2-1) en legde zijn grotere tegenstander voor in de eerste ronde. Inderdaad, Hylton's groottevoordeel zal weinig rol spelen in de uitkomst van dit gevecht als Hansen er iets over te zeggen heeft.

 

“Ik ben super enthousiast voor deze strijd,” riep Hansen uit. “Ik vind het leuk om deel uit te maken van deze 'supergevechten'.’ Ik weet dat Ras een geweldig kamp achter zich heeft en hij zal komen 100% bereid. Ik verwacht niets minder van Raio, maar ik heb het gevoel dat mijn ervaring en kalmte in de kooi mijn beste troef zullen zijn en dat is niet iets waar hij op kan trainen in 10 weken. 11 februari we gaan ten strijde, dus verwacht dat gewoon.”

 

NEF's volgende evenement, “NEF 27: HEROPLEVING” vindt plaats op Zaterdag, Februari 11, 2017 bij 7 p.m. Tickets beginnen bij $25 en zijn nu te koop bij www.TheColisee.com or by calling the Colisee box office at 207.783.2009, uitbreiding 525.

Lipinets and Zappavigna will fight in an eliminator for the 140-pound world title won this past weekend by Julius Indongo via a first round knockout of reigning champion Eduard Troyanovsky. Here is what Lipinets had to say about training camp with Buddy McGirt, his matchup op zaterdag en meer:
On his upcoming title elimination bout against Lenny Zappavigna…
“Zappavigna is a very well-rounded fighter with a lot of experience and I know he’s coming to rip my head off. There is no doubt about it, this fight is going to be tough. We both have a lot at stake because this is a title elimination bout. This will be war and everyone should be tuning in.”
Op zijn recente trainingskamp…
“It’s been a really productive training camp. My coach, Buddy McGirt has studied a lot of tape on Zappavigna and we have a great game plan intact. We are finalizing our last days of camp and we will be ready to go. I’m well prepared for this fight.”
On his rapid rise toward the top of the junior welterweight division…
“I’ve worked really hard and fought a lot of tough opponents to get in this position. In my first fight as a professional boxer, I fought a guy with over 30 gevechten, so nothing has come easy for me. I’ve earned my right to be here.”
On the possible opportunities that will come with a victory…
“A victory against Zappavigna will put me in position to fight for a world title. The opportunities are endless from then on. Unification bouts, fighting all the champions, those are the type of fights I’m looking forward too. My desire to be the best is all I think about.”
On fighting December 10th in Los Angeles in front of hometown fans…
“Since I’ve moved to America I’ve made a lot of friends in Los Angeles, especially in the Russian community. Anytime your hometown fans can see you fight on a mass scale is a beautiful thing.

By Evander Holyfield, Marco Antonio Barrera and Johnny Tapia

NEW YORK (December. 6, 2016) – Longtime SHOWTIME Sports announcers Barry Tompkins and Steve Farhood were elected into the 2017 class of the International Boxing Hall of Fame as first-time nominees, it was announced on Tuesday.

 

Tompkins and Farhood earned induction in the Observer category, which recognizes outstanding achievements of print and media journalists, publishers, schrijvers, historians, photographers and artists. They join a 2017 class headlined by boxing greats Evander Holyfield, Marco Antonio Barrera and Johnny Tapia. In the non-participant category is world-renowned ring announcer, the late Jimmy Lennon, Sr., who will posthumously join his son, the all-time SHOWTIME Sports ring announcer Jimmy Lennon Jr., in the Hall. The induction ceremony will take place during International Boxing Hall of Fame Weekend in Canastota, NY, Juni 8-11, when Farhood and Tompkins will join fellow SHOWTIME Sports Hall of Famers Al Bernstein (2012) and Lennon, Jr. (2013) in Canastota.

 

Tompkins and Farhood are the one-two punch behind the prospect-orientated SHOWTIME Sports series ShoBox: De nieuweGeneration, for which Tompkins calls the blow-by-blow action and Farhood serves as expert analyst alongside former world champion Raul Marquez. Tompkins and Farhood, who have both been in the boxing business for decades, are also the voice of SHOWTIME BOXING on SHO EXTREME.

 

“Steve and Barry are pillars of the SHOWTIME boxing announce team,"Zei Stephen Espinoza, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Showtime Sport. “Both men are as dedicated and committed to the sport and to their craft as anyone in television. Bovendien, they are supportive colleagues and dear friends to many of us in boxing. On behalf of all of us at SHOWTIME, congratulations on this great and well-deserved honor.”

 

The recognition by the International Boxing Hall of Fame is the result of a career’s worth of hard work and accomplishments for Tompkins and Farhood.

 

Before joining SHOWTIME in 2012, Tompkins was the No. 1 voice of boxing at NBC (1974-1979), HBO (1979-88), ESPN (1988-1996) en FOX Sports (1996-2011). He has called hundreds of boxing matches, waaronder meer dan 200 wereld titel gevechten; among them legendary battles Aaron Pryor-Alexis Arguello I — his personal favorite — Sugar Ray Leonard-Marvin Hagler, Mike Tyson-Trevor Berbick and countless others.

 

Tompkins, who has deservedly earned a reputation as one of boxing’s ‘good guys’, is in the midst of a career spanning 40 jaar. In addition to boxing, his countless credits include play-by-play commentary of the Super Bowl, the NCAA Final Four, eight Olympic Games, tennis majors and more.

 

Farhood has been involved in boxing for 38 jaar, during which he’s become universally respected for his integrity, honesty and expertise. In his distinguished career, he has served as announcer, auteur, researcher and author. A former editor-in-chief of De Ring en KO magazines, Farhood has been the voice of ShoBox sinds de oprichting in 2001. Farhood is the “ironman” of the acclaimed series, having served all but one of 228 ShoBox telecasts.
