ONE OF BOXING’S MOST EXCITING FIGHTERS, WBA SUPER FEATHERWEIGHT CHAMPION JAVIER FORTUNA, TO MAKE SECOND DEFENSE AGAINST HARD-PUNCHING JASON SOSA IN BEIJING CHINA, У ПЯТНІЦУ, Чэрвеня 24
|
На Пятніца, Чэрвеня 24, at the 18,000-seat Beijing Capital Gym in Beijing, Кітай, one of boxing’s most exciting fighters, Хаўер “Abejon” Стан (29-0-1, 21 КО) will make the second defense of his WBA World Super Featherweight Championship against hard-punching WBA #8 contender Jason Sosa (18-1-4, 14 КО). The potential war between the two sluggers will be also be seen by an audience of nearly 100 million Chinese via cctv5 channel live broadcast.
Fortuna vs. Sosa was officially announced at a press conference in Beijing today as the first in an ongoing series of four high-profile events per year that will be put on by the co-promotional partnership of Mr. Min Du Modoson and Mr. Liu Gang of Max Power Promotions “MPP” and Sampson Lewkowicz of Sampson Boxing.
26-year-old Fortuna, Ла-Рамана, Дамініканская Рэспубліка, has been a standout in boxing since his days as a decorated amateur who participated in the inaugural Pan American Junior Championships in 2003. Considered one of the most exciting fighters in the sport, Fortuna won his current title with a unanimous decision over Bryan Vasquez in May 2015. He defended it successfully in September of last year with a TKO 10 over Carlos Ivan Velasquez. Fortuna previously won the Interim WBA Featherweight Championship by beating formerly undefeated Patrick Hyland in December 2012. The powerful southpaw is also known for scoring highlight reel knockouts over formidable opponents including Yuandale Evans (СААЗ 1) and Miguel Zamudio (KO 1). Fortuna is promoted by Sampson Boxing.
28-year-old Sosa, Камден, Нью-Джэрсі, is of proud Puerto Rican descent. He earned his title shot and caught the eyes of the boxing world in December of last year by fighting to a surprise draw with one of the sport’s top fighters, two-time world champion Nicholas “Сякера хлопца” Walters of Jamaica. The fight was televised on HBO Boxing After Dark. A powerful puncher, Sosa was riding a 13-fight knockout streak before facing Walters. Sosa is also known for his aggressive style and iron chin. He has been called the best fighter to come out of Camden since former world champion Dwight “Camden Buzzsaw” Muhammad Qawi. Sosa is promoted by Peltz Boxing.
Here’s what the promoters, participants and their trainers had to say:
Хаўер Фартуна
Я выдатна сябе адчуваю. I am honored to be fighting in China.
He’s a strong fighter and he is always thinking in there. Тым не менш, I feel that I’m more talented and have more ability. I also have the stronger punching power.
I have been waiting for this opportunity. I am looking forward to this fight for my team and my country.
I’ve fought punchers before and I box them until their power starts to dissipate and then I rumble with them.
I appreciate all the love I get from the fans, worldwide. That’s why I train hard: to gain fans and to make myself the best fighter I can be.
Джэйсан Соса
Гэта выдатная магчымасць. This is what every fighter dreams of: to fight for a world title.
It depends on what kind of fight Fortuna wants. I’ll be in there fighting smart and just see what kind of fight he wants to bring. We can go to war, or we can box. It’s up to him.
He’s a little aggressive. A little wild. Just another guy.
I’m not really doing anything different training for him. Everything I’m doing is working, so I don’t fix anything that’s not broken.
I’m excited and nervous to fight in China. It’s my first time out of the country for me. I can’t wait to go there and I know it’ll be a beautiful experience.
Містэр. Min Du Modoson
We are happy to be partnering with international matchmaker and promoter Sampson Lewkowicz to bring world-class boxing to the county of China.
Javier Fortuna has what it takes to become a star in China. He and his worthy opponent will be greeted with open arms by our people.
Містэр. Liu Gang
This event will be huge in the country of China. Our company, MPP, is excited to work with Sampson Lewkowicz and to be able to bring such a great fight to the people.
China is a boxing-rich country. Boxers here are heroes to the people. Both fighters will be treated like celebrities and the fight will be watched by millions and millions of people.
Sampson Lewkowicz
I am happy to be helping to put on this event in the beautiful country of China and looking forward to a long and prosperous co-promotional partnership with Mr. Min Du Modoson and Mr. Liu Gang of MPP.
We have plans to feature many of the world’s best fighters in terrific match-ups like this one.
Javier Fortuna will be facing a fighter with almost as much power as he has, and he will have to be at his best to get another victory.
Расэл Peltz
It’s going to be a great fight and Sosa is looking forward to winning the world title.
Sosa just held his own and fought to a draw with one of the top junior lightweights in the world, Уолтерс, and it boosted his confidence level even higher.
Fortuna and Sosa are the same size, so I think that’s good. Sosa also has great sparring with another very good left hander, Tevin Фермер. They’re stablemates. Tevin is the perfect imitation, size wise, not style wise, of Fortuna.
Hector Bermudez (Fortuna Trainer)
I think it’s going to be an excellent fight for Fortuna to show off his talents internationally.
Sosa is a great opponent that we’ll have to train hard for and be focused against. It won’t be easy but Fortuna is training hard and it should be a great fight.
Sosa is a pressure fighter and a big puncher with the left hand. He’s rugged and throws combinations.
Me, as a trainer, I have already picked Sosa apart. He lunges a lot. He’s definitely aggressive and has a huge left hook.
Raul Rivas
It’ll be an interesting fight.
Fortuna is very talented, but I do believe that this is a good time for Jason to take this fight. He’s fought the better opposition.
Fortuna is a fighter that comes to fight, and we come to fight, so I believe it’ll be a very exciting fight, with two guys doing what they do best out there.
I believe we have the better and stronger fighter, so I like our chances.
I’ve never been to China, neither has Jason. We’re looking forward to the experience as a team; to be in a different country and experience something different. I know the Chinese population loves boxing, and combat sports. We are expecting a great show.

WBA Interim Champ Zhakiyanov and Camp Respond to ‘Blatantly False’ Rumors Being Spread by Super Flyweight Contender Zolani Tete
Interim WBA World Bantamweight Champion Zhanat “ZZ” Zhakiyanov (26-1, 18 КО) and his representatives are now forced to respond to the deliberate falsehoods being distributed by the team around South African super flyweight Zolani Tete. Zhakiyanov of Petropavl, Казахстан, is a proud warrior, who has been willing to face anyone from the start of his career. Which is what makes the blatantly false and intentionally misleading allegations by Tete’s camp so infuriating.
Tete and his manager, Mla Tengimfene, have been feeding the media a fictional story that Zhakiyanov recently backed out of a purported fight between the two, supposedly scheduled for Чэрвеня 4 at Echo Arena in Liverpool.
One problem.
Zhakiyanov and his people were never even contacted about such a fight. It never existed.
“I have never heard from anyone about this fight,” said Zhakiyanov. “They are saying I can’t make the weight and that’s why I can’t fight him. I was never supposed to fight him! He and his people are telling stories.”
Zhakiyanov’s manager, Philippe Fondu, wonders why the media would even believe such a fight ever existed when a quick check of the WBA rule book would have eliminated all talk of such a match-up.
“There were some unfounded rumors on the net about Zhanat defending against Tete a while ago, but having never received any concrete proposal from anyone, including his new promoter Frank Warren, I never paid any specific attention to these rumors. But let’s be honest here. Zhanat Zhakiyanov is the reigning interim WBA Bantamweight champion and Tete is actually boxing for other world organizations (IBF and/or WBO). Акрамя таго, Tete is rated #9 in the WBA super-flyweight division (115 lb.). Such a contest could obviously not even be considered, as a WBA Interim 118-lb. champion can only defend his title against a WBA top-15 rated boxer in the 118 фунт. division.”
Fondu also says that Zhakiyanov, promoted by Hatton Promotions, is fully capable of making the 118-lb weight limit and welcomes any and all viable fight proposals approvable by the WBA.
“I have been in boxing many years and I understand using the media to get a fighter’s name in print,” continued Fondu, “but they are using the name of a champion and proud representative of his home country of Kazakhstan to do it and it’s not right. Hopefully the media will get more responsible about checking the facts in the future.”

Ідучы на Славу: Вудс і Бісэт Rite Hook Promotions падарожнічаюць па магчымасці
Билокси, СПАДАРЫНЯ (Мая 6, 2016) - Генеральны дырэктар Rite Hook Promotions Уільям Хантэр не баіцца прадставіць сваім байцам складаныя і патэнцыяльныя магчымасці для змены кар'еры. Паспяхова прасунуўшы і пабудаваўшы сваіх баксёраў на мясцовасці ў Білоксі, Хантэр цвёрда верыць, што байцы могуць перамагчы ў любым месцы пры справядлівых абставінах.
«Заўсёды прыемна працаваць з галоднымі байцамі, якія не баяцца кусаць рупар і даваць яму ўсё, што ў іх ёсць, няхай гэта будзе ў суладнай барацьбе альбо супраць лепшых у свеце. Ёсць толькі некалькі хлопцаў, якія жадаюць скарыстацца гэтымі магчымасцямі і ўбачыць, што, калі яны выйграюць, атрымаецца большая карціна ".
Двое з гэтых мужчын - уласны Мэнні "Shake em 'Up" Вудса Rite Hook і Майк "Concrete" Bissett.
Жыццё і барацьба з Св. Пецярбург, Фларыда, Вудс едзе ў Лінкальн, RI кінуць выклік непераможнаму Джымі Уільямсу Пятніца, Мая 13 у паядынку сярод юніёраў у шасці раундах сярод юніёраў. Былы футбольны выдатнік, які атрымаў некалькі спроб НФЛ, Уільямс ёсць 10-0-1 з 5 накаўтам і змагаўся з усімі яго сутычкамі ў Канэктыкуце ці Род-Айлендзе. Пакуль не пераможаны, Уільямс не змагаўся з такім самым узроўнем апазіцыі, як Вудс.
З цвёрдай 15-4-1 кніга і 5 накаўты, Вудс выйграў пяць з апошніх шасці паядынкаў і атрымаў свежае рашэнне аднагалоснай перамогі над жорсткім мексіканцам Эліясам Эспадасам у мінулым месяцы. Раней у сваёй кар'еры, Вудс апярэдзіў будучага прэтэндэнта на тытул Уілкі Кэмпфарт, а потым непераможнага Шэлдэна Мура. З перавагай вопыту і нядаўняй гарачай серыяй, Хантэр упэўнены, што яго баец першым пераможа Уільямса.
«У першую чаргу я паважаю Джымі, таму што ён выдатны спартсмен і шмат перажыў у асабістым жыцці. Я думаю, што ён добры баксёр, але Мэнні ўжо быў у глыбокіх водах. Ён ведае, што такое калі шанцы супраць яго і робяць усё, што яму трэба, каб атрымаць W. Джымі ніколі раней не быў у гэтай пазіцыі, і я лічу, што ён адкусвае больш, чым можа разжаваць Мэнні ".
Праз тыдзень у Цэнтральным Пойнце, АБО, Бісэт сутыкнуўся з высокім рэкламам Майка Уілсана ў матчы ў суперцяжкай вазе. Двухразовы чэмпіён ЗША сярод аматараў, Уілсан ёсць 13-0 з 7 перамогі KO і лічыўся галоўнай перспектывай, калі ён выйшаў з аматараў. У цяперашні час падвойваецца як баец і прамоўтэр, Апошнія пяць сутычак Уілсана адбыліся ў яго родным Арэгоне, і ён спыніў сваіх трох апошніх ворагаў.
Нарадзіўся ў Місісіпі і месціцца ў Тампа, Фларыда, гаворыцца ў прафэсійнай кнізе Бісэта 10-8 з 7 накаўты. Ён змагаўся з шэрагам вядомых байцоў, у тым ліку 2012 Алімпійцы Майкл Хантэр і Дамінік Брызіль, ўзыходзячая зорка Стывенс Буджай, а затым двойчы непераможны Мілаш Пантэліч. Пераможца ў трох з апошніх чатырох, Найлепшая перамога ў кар'еры Бісэтта 2014 калі ён апярэдзіў папулярнага прэтэндэнта Нікаласа Яннуцы. Гэтак жа, як і яго тупіковы Вудс супраць Уільямса, Бісэт мае перавагу ў досведзе, калі некалькі разоў быў у жорсткай барацьбе.
«Уілсан вельмі добры баец, і я чуў пра яго гадамі. Ён выдатна прасоўваў сябе і будаваў боксерскі спорт у Арэгоне. З тым, што, Майк Бісет быў на рынгу з шэрагам найлепшых крэйсераў і даказаў сваю трываласць. Я думаю, што і ён, і Мэнні выступяць з заявамі ў бліжэйшыя тыдні і пяройдуць на вялікія баі ".
