Mashantucket, Conn. (Julio 23, 2016) – With a potential title shot on the line, Adam Lopez and Roman Reynoso fought to a 10-round draw in the main event of the 15-year anniversary telecast of ShoBox: La Nueva Generación Viernes por SHOWTIME® from Foxwoods Resort Casino.

 

In attendance ringside before the fight, newly crowned IBF Junior Featherweight World Champion Jonathan Guzman (22-0, 22 KOs) announced that he’d like fight the winner of Lopez-Reynoso, raising the stakes for this matchup of 122-pound prospects. While the fight was close and entertaining, analista Steve Farhood, who has called all 219ShoBox telecasts, didn’t believe either fighter did enough to earn an immediate title shot against Guzman.

 

The fight looked like a toss-up heading into the 10º – with Lopez leading by just one connect after nine rounds – and the Ronnie Shields pupil came up with a huge final round rally. The undefeated prospect hurt Reynoso (18-1-2, 7 KOs) in the final seconds with a flurry of shots, forcing the Argentine spit out his mouthpiece to buy himself nearly 30 seconds of rest. Seemingly out on his feet, Reynoso somehow survived the onslaught without falling to the canvas before the final bell. López (15-0-1, 7 KOs) out-landed Reynoso 34-21 y en general 34-20 in power shots in the final round, but it wasn’t enough to earn him the victory.

 

Judge Don Ackerman saw Lopez a 96-94 ganador, while Bill Morande had it 97-93 Reynoso, and Peter Hary cast the deciding ballot at 95-95. All three judges scored the last round 10-9 para Lopez. Had Reynoso fell to the canvas in the final seconds, la 10-8 round would have given Lopez the win.

 

“Fue una pelea dura. He didn’t want to engage,", Dijo López, who out-landed Reynoso 158-144 y en general 131-125 en golpes de poder. “He’s slick and experienced and a good fighter. I feel that this was my best performance on ShoBox. I have been working on new things with Ronnie Shields and it showed in there. I know I hurt him in the last round.

 

“The decision was bullshit. He could not hit me.”

 

“It was a close fight, but I feel I won,” Reynoso said. “He never hurt me. The only thing that surprised me is that he was more aggressive than in other fights. I hurt my hand from hitting him.”

 

Late replacement Jerry Odom knocked out previously once-beaten Julius Jackson with a vicious third round knockout (1:57) en el ShoBoxco-estelar.

 

Jackson (19-2, 15 KOs), the son of former two-division world champion Julian “The Hawk” Jackson, was outworking Odom through two rounds, who took the fight 10-days notice after Ronaldo Ellis suffered a hand injury. That was until Washington, D.C.’s Odom (14-2-1, 13 KOs) clocked Jackson with a flush right counter shot with one minute left in the third, spelling the end for Jackson, who couldn’t beat the count and suffered his second consecutive knockout loss.

 

“I saw the right hand. I was throwing combinations and I saw the opening and landed a good shot,", Dijo Odom. “As opposed to the last couple fights, I am in a great place physically, mental y espiritualmente. I have a great team around me. We are unbreakable.”

 

“He threw the punch at the right time and caught me,”Dijo Jackson. “I was OK, but the referee stopped the fight. I felt up until that point, I was boxing well and winning every round.”

 

Rolando Chinea won a close, eight-round split decision victory over O’Shaquie Foster (10-2, 7 KOs) in a matchup of lightweights, anotado 79-73 (Chinea), 77-75 (Fomentar) y 78-74 (Chinea).

 

Chinea (13-1-1, 6 KOs) was the aggressor, dictating the tempo of the fight from the outset. And while most rounds were extremely close – closer than the relatively wide scorecards – Chinea’s activity was the difference. Chinea threw 733 golpes totales, comparado con 641 for Foster, and he edged Foster by nearly 150 golpes de poder (592-449).

 

“He is a hell of a fighter and it was fun to fight him,” said Chinea, who was largely able to minimize the jab, Foster’s best weapon. “Like I said before the fight, he could not take pressure. I brought the pressure. I blocked and slipped a lot of his punches. My will and desire to win outweighed his will to punch.

 

“He did not take my pressure well. I worked my shots well inside and that was a difference in the fight.”

 

Fomentar, who’s record fell to 10-2 con 7 KOs, complained that he “had distractions and couldn’t focus.”

 

En la primera pelea de la transmisión por televisión, Ian Green handed previously undefeated super welterweight prospect Khiary Gray the first loss of his career with a stunning second round TKO (2:50).

 

With former world champion and fellow Paterson, N. J., Kendall Holt in his corner, Verde (10-1, 8 KOs) came from behind to floor Gray with a big right cross to the chin that sent him tumbling face-forward into the canvas. gris, a local favorite from nearby Worchester, Misa., tried to hold on with just 30 segundos por jugarse en la ronda, but he couldn’t make it to the break and was falling backward into the ropes when the referee halted the contest.

 

“I got him good, and I got him out of there,” said Green, who out-landed Gray 14-0 in the final minute. “He got me good one time, but I kept my left hand up and hung in there. We’re going all the way up. This is just the start.”

 

gris (13-1, 10 KOs), who was seemingly in control of the fight and rocking Green with ease, se convirtió en el 151st fighter to suffer his initial defeat on the prospect developmental series.

 

“El solo me atrapo,” Gray said. “I don’t even know what punch it was. I didn’t even see it. I tried to hold on and waste some time, but I got caught again. I just need to get back to the gym and fix my mistakes. I’ll bounce back.

 

Viernes de la transmisión de cuatro peleas se volverá a emitir este lunes en 10 p.m. Y/PT por SHOWTIME EXTREME.

 

Barry Tompkins llamó al ShoBox acción desde el ringside, con Steve Farhood y el ex campeón del mundo Raúl Márquez calidad de expertos analistas. El productor ejecutivo fue Gordon Hall con Rich Gaughanproducir y Rick Phillips dirigente.

Team Shumenov petitions WBA to declare purse bid for mandatory title fight vs. Lebedev or strip Lebedev of his world cruiserweight title belt

LAS VEGAS (Julio 22, 2016) – It has been more than a month since World Boxing Association (AMB) world cruiserweight champion Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs), based on the much publicized WBA Cruiserweight Tournament rules and regulations, petitioned the WBA to either declare a purse bid for a title fight between WBA Super cruiserweight champion Denis Lebedev, or strip Lebedev of his title belt for being non-compliant.
En julio pasado, Shumenov derrotado B.J. Flores by way of a 12-round unanimous decision to become the WBA mandatory challenger for Lebedev, who hasn’t fought a mandatory defense since April 10, 2015.
The WBA issued a resolution this past April that Lebedev, quien derrotó Victor Emelio Ramirez in May to also become International Boxing Federation cruiserweight champion, must fight Shumenov dentro 120 día of the latter’s May 21, 2016 knockout victory over Júnior Wright.
On record for making changes to insure only one world champion in each division, incredibly, the WBA presently has 38 different world title belt holders in only 17 diferentes clases de peso. Only three WBA divisions have one world champion – super ligero, lightweight and light flyweightand eight have three world titlists, including its cruiserweight division, which presently has world champions in Lebedev, Shumenov and Interim champion Yunier Dorticos, who is the WBA second mandatory challenger.
In an apparent public relations move, the WBA has suddenly declared this month a rash of mandatory defenses, sin embargo, declaring and actually making these title fights are two different things, as Shumenov has unfortunately learned. The WBA should have ordered a Lebedev vs. Shumenov purse bid on June 21, 2016, when the two sides couldn’t come to an agreement, but the WBA failed to do so. When Shumenov repeated his request for a purse bid in June, the WBA failed once again to act.
WBA Rule D: Purse Bids
1. Call For Purse Bid. Bout participants shall reach an agreement on holding the bout no later than ninety (90) days before the expiration of the mandatory period. To confirm an agreement has been reached, the WBA must receive acceptable bout contracts signed by the boxers certifying they have reached terms for the bout. If no agreement has been reached, the Championships Committee, with the approval of the President, can call for Purse bid. A boxer may also request a purse bid at any time.
Lebedev’s promoter, Andrei Ryabinsky, has been quoted in stories about having a deal in place for his fighter to defend his IBF title first. In effect, the WBA is allowing Lebedev to hold the WBA Super cruiserweight title belt hostage, leveraging it against his IBF crown. Shumenov, who is a former WBA Super light heavyweight champion, has now proudly worn the WBA belt around his waist for a total of nearly five years.
I was looking forward to fighting Lebedev and I don’t understand his unwillingness and refusal to step in the ring with me,” Shumenov dijo.
Team Shumenov is extremely disappointed in the WBA’s failure to act on making the fight with Lebedev that it mandated, in addition to being discouraged by the WBA’s failure, after several requests had been made, to either set a purse bid date or strip Lebedev of his world title belt. Not knowing if or when the WBA is finally going to rule has left Shumenov unable to book any fights. The WBA’s failure to enforce its own purse bid rule, or strip Lebedev, has unfairly prevented Shumenov from earning a living while at the peak of his pro boxing career.
Shumenov is the only native Kazakh to be a two-division world champion. Now a resident of Las Vegas, he also represented his native Kazakhstan at the 2004 Olympics in Greece.

Mashantucket, Connecticut (Julio 21, 2016) – Peso mediano en ascenso invicto Sergiy “El técnico” Derevyanchenko (9-0, 7 KOs) derribado Soy “Rey” Soliman(44-14, 18 KOs) tres veces antes de detener al ex campeón mundial en la segunda ronda del evento principal de Liga de Campeones de Boxeo en ESPN y ESPN Deportes Jueves por la noche desde Foxwoods Resort Casino en Mashantucket, Connecticut.
La 2008 Ucraniano olímpico, Derevyanchenko tuvo el control desde el principio, manteniéndose firme y lanzando tiros inteligentes mientras Soliman intentaba desconcertarlo con movimientos y ángulos incómodos.
Soliman fue atrapado con un misil en la mano derecha de Derevyanchenko que aterrizó justo en la barbilla y envió al australiano desequilibrado a la lona.. Sin embargo, Soliman no parecía herido, mientras continuaba avanzando para tratar de interrumpir y frustrar al luchador invicto.
Derevyanchenko continuó conectando tiros efectivos y sorprendió a Soliman fuera de balance nuevamente en la segunda ronda., esta vez con un gancho de izquierda que puso a Soliman en el suelo. Soliman volvió a ponerse de pie, pero Derevyanchenko rápidamente sorprendió a Soliman y lo puso en modo de supervivencia..
Soliman intentó atar y evitar a Derevyanchenko, pero finalmente el luchador invicto entrenando, quien entrena en Brooklyn, aterrizó varias manos derechas antes de que un amplio gancho de izquierda enviara a Soliman al suelo con fuerza y ​​por última vez de la noche. El árbitro Johnny Callas despidió la pelea a 2:41 de la segunda ronda.
El primer combate de la noche fue contundente Ievgen Khytrov (13-0, 11 KOs) atacar sin parar Pablo Méndez (19-3-2, 9 KOs) antes de eventualmente ganar un paro en el noveno asalto de su enfrentamiento de peso mediano.
Khytrov y Méndez se enfrentaron cara a cara desde la primera ronda, intercambiar ráfagas y mostrar la voluntad de pararse frente a su oponente. Fue Khytrov quien mostró el ataque más variado mientras salía a un inicio y aterrizaje rápido. 50 por ciento de su poder golpea en las primeras tres rondas.
Méndez se mantuvo firme y continuó lanzando golpes., pero no pudo aterrizar nada que molestara a Khytrov. El peleador nacido en Ucrania que entrena en Brooklyn atacó el cuerpo temprano mientras aturde a Méndez con uppercuts y ganchos de poder.. Las rondas siete y ocho vieron a Khytrov aumentar su ataque mientras aparentemente conectaba golpes de poder a voluntad..
La pelea continuó de esa manera unilateral durante el primer minuto de la novena ronda.. Sintiendo una oportunidad, Khytrov arrinconó a Méndez y lo golpeó con una serie de ganchos sin respuesta que obligaron al árbitro Joe Lupino a detener la pelea., por recomendación del médico del ring, 1:20 en la ronda. Khytrov terminó la pelea con un 482-125 ventaja en golpes aterrizados al aterrizar 50 por ciento de sus disparos totales.
Esto es lo que los combatientes tenían que decir Jueves:
SERGIY DEREVYANCHENKO
I looked into his eyes after I knocked him down the first time and I knew he would continue coming forward. I wasn’t going to drop my guard. I didn’t even feel that punch on my glove because it was so clean to the chin. But I felt the final punch.
I warmed up more than once and that broke my rhythm. In the ring I had to get my rhythm.
Soliman came out nervous and not very coordinated, but that’s the way he usually fights. That’s his style.
I’m going to keep moving forward. I can’t sit and wait. We will assess the situation and move from here.
SOLIMAN SAM
I’m doing well. I didn’t get to warm up, just a couple of minutes, pero eso no es excusa. He did his job. That’s never happened before to me.
He’s a good boxer who did what he had to do. No puedo tomar nada fuera de él.
“Después de cada pelea, fighters have to decide what to do next. I have a lot outside of boxing that makes me happy, and it takes the sting out of tonight.
IEVGEN KHYTROV
I love to fight and battle and go toe-to-toe. I executed the game plan. My defense was much better and I’ve worked hard on my defense. This was my best fight because that guy stood and fought, he didn’t run.
I wasn’t surprised that Mendez took so many punches because I didn’t throw every punch hard, I mixed it up, but did throw some hard punches.
I want a couple more fights then I want to fight for the world title. That’s what I’ve worked so hard to do. I’m not going to dodge anybody. I want to fight Gennady Golovkin and take his belts.

CITAS FINALES:

ADAM LOPEZ:
I’ve experienced and grown a lot over my last few fights. I’ve learned a lot about myself and overcame adversity. All my fights on ShoBox have been tough, but I’m hoping for a breakthrough victory el viernes to prove I’m ready to face a contender.

Reynoso is a tough fighter. We know he swings for the fences. Because he’s from Argentina, a lot of people call him a little Marcos Maidana. He’s probably the toughest opponent so far, but we’re ready for whatever he brings.

I’m back to training with Ronnie Shields. I was with Ronnie for my first five fights and it’s good to be back. Ronnie is working on my jab and helping improve my basic fundamentals.

I want to win and look good doing it. If I get the KO, that’s great, but I’m not going to look for it. I don’t want to be on the canvas looking for it.

We want to show that we’re ready for bigger and better fights. But we know we can’t look past this guy.

ROMAN REYNOSO:
This is the biggest fight of my career. Everything is motivating for me. I want the best for my family, and winning a fight like this can help me get there.

We moved up to Montreal for training camp and we’ve improved a lot. We’ve developed defense and a better boxing style. We used to be about just coming forward and punching, but we’re working on our movement, our boxing skills.

We are coming here to exploit Adam Lopez. We’re here to upset him.

I know he has a big left hook, but we’re going to take that away. We know he has a height and reach advantage, but we like to fight wars. Si él quiere una guerra, we’re prepared. If he wants to run, we’re prepared. We’ll see if he will be able to figure out how to beat me.

I’m used to being the shorter fighter. No me molesta.

I look up to (Marcos) Maidana, but he has his own style. I don’t try to mimic that.

This is my first time moving down to 122 libra. In Argentina, it was hard to get fights at 122 – most of my fights were at 126 – but fighting at 122 is more natural for me. This is what we were looking for.

On Matias Carlos Adrian Rueda, who fights Oscar Valdez for the WBO Featherweight Championship en sábado:
That’s the only boxer who has beaten me. We wish him the best. We were looking for the rematch, but it didn’t happen. En el futuro, it needs to happen.

JERRY ODOM:
I’ve been training all summer. Opportunities come and go. I was taught that when a window opens you have to jump in. That’s why we took this fight.

We’re not thinking about his (Jackson’s) última pelea. That isn’t going to dictate our game plan. We know the opportunities to knock him out are there, but we need to worry about our game plan.

I’ve watched tape on him. He still has the same posture, he has no finesse. He’s a straight up type of fighter. Nothing we can’t handle.

Records don’t mean anything. You look at my record and see I have two losses. That doesn’t mean anything, doesn’t define me. He better not be overlooking me because I have two losses. That would be a big mistake.

JULIUS JACKSON:
The loss made me hungrier. I just got hurt. He hit me and I just couldn’t recover.

My team is confident I’m still a high-level fighter. We don’t just want opponents. We want guys that will test us.

The change in opponents doesn’t affect us. We’re just trying to perfect ‘The Chef.We want to get in there and do what it takes to win.

There’s definitely pressure. We know if I lose mañana it will set me back even more. But we’re not thinking about that. Venimos a ganar. This is an opportunity to erase my loss.

Odom comes to fight. That’s what makes this an exciting fight. We’re both coming to fight.

O’SHAQUIE FOSTER:
Chinea is a one-punch puncher. He’s suitable to my style. We like the pressure he brings. We can break him down, break his will.

I’m supposed to be here. The loss in my first fight on ShoBox was a fluke. I showed in my last ShoBox fight that I belong here.

I don’t see anyone at lightweight that can beat me. Solo soy 22, but at this point next year we want to be considered a contender for a title shot.

ROLANDO CHINEA:
I’ve studied tape on him. Es un luchador consumado. But I know he doesn’t like pressure, and my style revolves around pressure. So he’s a tailor-made fighter for me.

We’re going to do what we do best: apply pressure.

This is my TV debut and I’m ready to make a statement. This is an opportunity that I need to take advantage of.

We’ve done everything we can in the gym. We’re been sparring with top fighters in Philadelphia. We’re ready to go.

KHIARY GRAY:
I’m more of a boxer than a KO guy. I have a lot of knockouts, but that’s not what I’m always looking for. I consider myself more of a boxer.

I’ve always had late replacements in my fights, so that doesn’t give us a problem. I’ve seen clips of him, and we’re ready for him.

“Yendo 10 rounds was a good experience for me. It taught me that my conditioning was there. That I can go the distance if I need to.

I switch to lefty when I have to. I can fight the whole fight lefty if I need to.

I sparred with Edwin (Rodríguez) recently, sparred with Demetrius Andrade. It’s good work with those guys. I can hold my own in the gym with them.

There’s pressure fighting on TV, but I feel comfortable. People are going to know me after this. They’ll know that I’m ready to be a contender in the 154-pound division.

IAN GREEN:
I’ve been in the gym since April. Se suponía que debía seguir luchando Julio 30, but this was a better opportunity and I jumped on it.

We have Kendall Holt in our corner, and we hope to be the next fighter from Paterson to win a title.

Gray is an aggressive guy, but my range and height is an advantage. I don’t think he’s faced anyone like me. He’s been touched a few times.

Once you see me mañana, you’ll see the real Ian Green.
