די 5-פֿיס-9, 27-year-old Prograis, originally from New Orleans, די., but currently residing in Houston, טעקסאַס, is an aggressive-minded southpaw who’s making his 2016 debut and third start on שאָבאָקס. Before turning pro in April 2012 he competed in the 2012 United States Olympic Boxing Trials.
אין זיין שאָבאָקס debut on Aug, 17, 2015, he registered an impressive,eight-round decision over previously undefeated אַמאָס קאָוואַרט.מגילה, who had won eight straight by knockout going into the Cowart clash, resumed his KO-winning streak with a ninth-round knockout over אַבעל ראַמאָס לעצט דעצעמבער. 11 אויף שאָוטיים.
“I can’t wait to fight on March 25. I’m ready to put on another great show for the fans and demonstrate how I continue to improve as a fighter,"האט פּראָגראַיס, וואס איז געווען 16 when he turned to boxing after relocating to Houston because of Hurricane Katrina. “I know I have a tough opponent, but I’m ready to go out and perform.
“Aaron Herrera is a rugged veteran and I know there will be some fireworks. I am thankful to my promoter, דיבעללאַ פֿאַרווייַלונג, and to the network, שאָוטיים, for the opportunity to display my skills and talent.”
וועגן זיין צונעמעניש, Prograis said, “My manager and my dad were just trying to come up with nicknames. באַסיקאַללי, everybody was just shooting out names and they shot out that one – ‘Rougarou’. אין ערשטער, I didn’t like it, but it stuck with me. A rougarou is like a Louisiana-type swamp monster or werewolf.”
העררעראַ, 27, of Valladolid, מעקסיקא, אַ געווינער פון 16 in a row at the outset of a pro career that began in August 2008, has fought some noteworthy opposition. This will be his second fight in U.S. באָדן. In his stateside debut, Herrera dropped a 10-round decision to undefeated prospect Pedro Campa לעצט דעצעמבער. 12.
Besides experience, Herrera has solid skills, movement and hails from a strong family boxing background (his father and grandfather boxed). He’s at his best when he keeps his foes off-balance and can surely outbox them. This will be the 17טה consecutive time he’ll be matched against a boxer with a winning record.
“I’m very excited at the opportunity to showcase my talent on theShoBox series,’’ Herrera said. “I’ve watched a few fights of Regis on YouTube. ער ס אַ גוט Fighter, but I am a better one. I feel fighting in Mexico has given me the upper hand. Mexican fighters are tough. I have fought better opposition and I’m the more experienced fighter.
“I’ve been looking for an opportunity like this. I need a good breakout fight for the fans to see me in action. I am a proud Mexican fighter and on March 25 the fans will see how real Mexicans fight like, and Prograis will know who Aaron Herrera is. Viva Mexico!"
The highly regarded Baranchyk is making his second eight-round start and second in a row on שאָבאָקס. An offensive-minded fighting machine, he registered a 2:28, ערשטער-קייַלעכיק נאַקאַוט איבער שאַדי שעהאַדעה אין זיין לעצטן אָנהייב לעצט דעצעמבער. 11 אויף שאָבאָקס.
באַראַנטשיק, of Minsk, Byelorussia, is a former European amateur standout who turned pro in June 2014 and relocated to the United States just a few months after. די 5-פֿיס-7, 23-year-old has won all eight of his U.S. אָוטינגס, seven by way of knockout, five in the first round.
“I am thrilled to make my second consecutive appearance on שאָבאָקס,"באַראַנטשיק מאַקענזי. “I know that my next opponent will be a test for me, but I will score another exciting victory for the fans.’’
זיין קעגנער, גיווהאַן, turned pro in August 2012, won his first 15 scraps, boxed a four-round split draw with Freddy Durand אויף אויגוסט. 22, 2015, and is coming from a majority decision over Juan Santiago לעצטנאוועמבער. 13.
די 5-פֿיס-7, 29-year-old fought 14 times in Michigan and one time each in West Virginia, Mississippi and Kentucky. The ultra-confident Givhan is taking a step up in class in Baranchyk, but he’s certainly not in awe of his assignment and is eagerly anticipating the opportunity.
“I am getting my mind ready for war,’’ said Givhan, whose nickname, “King Beamen,” is a reference to Jamie Foxx’s character from the movie “Any Given זונטיק."
“Training is going great both mentally and physically. I belong on theשאָבאָקס series because they showcase great talent and, false modesty aside, I have great boxing talent. I will feel at home fighting on SHOWTIME and I take this as a great honor to fight on their network.
“My opponent has not fought anyone of my caliber. I know he’s been talking trash, but it won’t matter in the end. He has not had an opponent who can outthink, outshine and outbox him. I am that guy, I am that fighter. The cliché is true: to be the best you’ve got to fight and beat the best. We are both undefeated and this is the kind of a fight that separates the good fighters from the great ones.’’
גאָלוב, a six-foot, 27 year-old southpaw, turned pro in November 2012. At the outset of his career, ער איז 5-0 in the WSOB. He’s gone 10-0 זינט, winning eight by knockout, including his last four in a row. Golub has recorded five first-round stoppages, including a two-knockdown,2:41, opening-round TKO over וואַן ראַדריגעז in his most recent effort last Jan. 16 בייַ באַרקלייַס צענטראַל.
“It is an honor for me to make my national television debut,” Golub said. “Many champions got their start on שאָבאָקס and I am determined to add my name to that illustrious list. My path toward a world title begins onמאַרץ 25 when I hand Marlon Aguas his first defeat.”
Aguas is making his U.S. און 2016 debut after fighting seven times in Quito, Ecuador and twice in Mexico. A pro since March 2013, he won his initial eight starts and is coming off a first-round knockout over Edwin Gamboa לעצט נאוועמבער. 7.
“I’m very excited and grateful to show the world a small country like Ecuador produces amazing fighters,’’ Aguas said. “Boxing is my life and I plan on making a statement in my U.S. debut.”
