I feel like this fight is what the PBC is all aboutbringing big fights to network TV and this is one of the biggest so far,” Said Porter. “I am excited to be the headliner against Adrien Broner. I’m always ready for a fight and facing Adrien is definitely going to be a challenge, but I’ve watched his career, even in the amateurs and I know he can be beat. I’m also looking forward to fighting at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. We moved to Las Vegas for opportunities like this and I would love to make MGM Grand my home.

Een atletische wonder, de 27-jarige Slijtage is eager to keep his momentum going after scoring a fifth-round knockout over Erick Bone on the inaugural Maart 13 PBC on Spike fight. The Akron-native dominated Devon Alexander in December 2013 to win his previously held world title. Hij volgde dat op door overweldigende eerste twee-divisie kampioen Paulie Malignaggi met een vierde ronde onderbreking in april 2014.

 

Een 2012 U.S. Olympian die een hoog onderscheiden amateur-carrière gehad, de 25-jarigeSpence Jr. will look to remain undefeated when he steps into the ring for the biggest challenge of his career. De Desoto, Texas born fighter was dominant in his PBC debut onApril 11 als hij versloeg Samuel Vargas door de vijfde ronde knock-out.

 

Een veteraan van de sport voor bijna 15 jaar, the 35-year-old Garcia has racked up nine straight victories and will look to extend that streak to 10 when he faces Spence Jr. opJuni 20. De Weslaco, Texas native has most recently put together wins over Victor Manuel Cayo, Breidis Prescott and a unanimous decision victory over James Stevenson on the April 24 PBC-kaart.

GH3 Promotions adds Heavyweight Natu Visinia to stable in co-promotional deal with Final Forum Boxing

Nutley, NJ (Mei 15, 2015) Vito Mielnicki’s GH3 Promotions is pleased to announced the addition of Heavyweight contender Elders Visine to it’s roster.

Visinia will now be co-promoted with Sal Musumeci’s Final Forum Boxing.

Visinia, 30 years-old of Clinton, Illinois scored a 4th round stoppage over Joshua Clarke on May 13 in Hollywood, California as part of the Sugar Ray Leonard Charity Event. With that win he upped his record to 11-1 met 9 knockouts and it was his first effort since his lone setback when he he lost to two-time world champion Steve Cunningham in October.
I think its a great thing to get with GH3. Vito has been great at moving fighters and getting them fights. That has been my problem is getting fights. I think that being able to stay consistent with fighting and staying in the ring and being able to stay busy will help me out in the long run,”said Visinia.
The win over Clarke is impressive because Clarke is 12-1 as an MMA fighter and 2-3-2 als een bokser. Clarke went the distance with world-ranked Charles Martin and Visinia was able to impressively stop the native of Richmond, Virginia.
Clarke was a tough guy. He has never been knocked out in any of his 20 gevechten. He doesnt have a very good boxing record and everyone he has fought has been undefeated. Going in there to knockout a durable guy like that gives me confidence.
I want to stay busy and I will do my end and that is to train hard, I will leave it to Vito and his team to put the fights together. It never matters who I am fighting. People questioned me about taking on Steve Cunningham after 10 fights but that is the fighter I am.

We are very happy to make the deal get Natu into the fold with us at GH3,” Said Vito Mielnicki.

Natu has shown that he is a huge puncher. The only thing he has been lacking is experience and everybody knows how active I like to keep my guys. We already have plans to bring him back Juni 6 en juni 27. I look forward to overseeing the development of Natu and want to thank Sal Musumeci for making this happen. Together with Sal, we can bring Natu to the top of the Heavyweight division.

I am excited to co-promote with Natu with GH3 Promotions,” said Final Forum’s Sal Musumeci. “Vito keeps his fighters very busy and we feel that is what Natu needs. With the proper activity, Natu Visinia can become a major force in the Heavyweight division.

GH3 Promotions beschikt over ongeslagen middengewicht Antoine Douglas, Super middengewicht's Jerry Odom & Derrick Webster, ongeslagen Super bantamgewicht Adam Lopez evenals Jr. Middengewicht John Thompson, Jr., ongeslagen weltergewicht Jerrell Harris,ongeslagen Super bantamgewicht Qa'id Mohammed, ongeslagen lichtgewicht Oscar Bonilla en Light Heavyweight Lavarn Harvell de GH3 Promotions stabiel.

SWEET HOME(COMING) ALABAMA! UNDEFEATED DEONTAY WILDER TO DEFEND HEAVYWEIGHT WORLD TITLE AGAINST ERIC MOLINA ON SATURDAY, Juni 13, LEVEN OP Showtime

VAN BARTOW ARENA IN BIRMINGHAM, ALA.

Tickets zijn nu te koop!

All Access: Deontay Wilder Premieres Juni 3 On SHOWTIME

 

Birmingham, Ala. (Mei 14, 2015) – Undefeated Heavyweight World Champion Deontay “De Bronzen Bomber” Wilder (33-0, 32 KO), van Tuscaloosa, Ala., zal de eerste verdediging van zijn titel toen hij geconfronteerd Eric “Drummer Boy” Molina (23-2, 17 KO), van Raymondville, Texas, in het main event van Showtime Championship Boxing® op Zaterdag, Juni 13, live on SHOW TIME® (9 p.m. EN/6 p.m. PT) bij Bartow Arena in Birmingham, Ala.

It’s a wonderful feeling to be able to defend my heavyweight championship in my home state,” Wilder said. “I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time.

 

It was one of my dreams to win a world title. This was my other dream to be able to defend it before all my fans in Alabama. I can’t wait until fight night to step into the ring and see the whole state coming out to support me.

 

I remember just a few months ago watching Deontay get ready for the biggest fight of his life,” Molina said. “I thought to myself, ‘someday, that’ll be me.I stared with envy not knowing that a few months later I’d get my turn.

 

Winning the heavyweight world championship is my dream. Just as it was Deontay’s dream, it’s mine now. He had his turn, though it will be short-lived. I will become the first Mexican-American heavyweight champion. Guaranteed. Zo, champ, come prepared for war. I’m coming to kick some ass.

 

Deontay Wilder is the first American to hold a heavyweight championship in years and one of the most exciting fighters in the division. His homecoming in Birmingham will be electric,” promoter Lou DiBella said. “The opening bout will be Jose Pedraza’s opportunity to establish himself as Puerto Rico’s next champion and a rising star. It will be a great night of boxing on SHOWTIME.

 

We are excited to work with DiBella Entertainment to bring the first ever heavyweight boxing championship to the State of Alabama,” Said Gene Hallman, president en CEO van Bruno Event Team, a nationwide leader in sports event management. “Alabama’s Deontay Wilder always puts on a show, so we expect the arena to sell out for this world heavyweight championship.

 

Deontay made an emphatic statement with his performance in January that he is one of the current and future stars of this sport, and we’re thrilled to welcome him back to SHOWTIME for his first title defense, ” zei Stephen Espinoza, Executive Vice President & General Manager Showtime Sport. “But we all know that one punch can change everything in the heavyweight division and Eric Molina will be coming to Alabama to prove just that.

 

All Access: Deontay Wilder, which chronicles the champion’s Jan. 24 homecoming parade in Tuscaloosa and his preparation for the upcoming title defense, premières op Woensdag, Juni 3 bij 10 p.m. EN/PT.

 

Wilder, the first United States-born heavyweight champion since Shannon Briggs won the WBO belt in November 2006, was born and raised in Tuscaloosa. He’s fought in Alabama five times, although the bout on the campus of the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) will mark the first occasion he’s fought outside of Tuscaloosa (four times) or Mobile (once). This will be the first fight in his home state since August 2012.

 

Wilder started boxing at the age of 21 after his daughter Naieya (pronounced nie-EE-ya) was born with spina bifida. Despite his late start in boxing, Wilder would go on to represent the United States in the 2008 Olympische Spelen, waar hij won een bronzen medaille. Hij is de laatste Amerikaanse mannelijke bokser te medaille op de Olympische Spelen.

 

Until going the distance against Stiverne, Wilder hadn’t come close to putting in a full night’s work since turning pro in November 2008. The then-virtually untested slugger had fought a total of 58 rondes, an average of 1.8 rounds per outing. He’s registered 18 knockouts in the first round, eight in the second.

 

Molina, who resides in Weslaco, Texas, is a big slugger, rugged and strong. He has good skills and movement and, like Wilder, got a belated start in boxing but has had only two defeats as a professional.

 

The Drummer Boyis on a roll, coming off five consecutive victories. Molina’s matchup with Wilder will be his first shot at a world title.

Here are what the participants had to say at yesterday’s workout:

 

Danny O'Connor, Framingham, MA:

I think the show is big but, voor mij, it’s just another fight with Paul. I’m excited about the challenge in front of me, matching my skills against somebody like Paul with his resume. Ik ben zeer gefocust. All the work is done here (in gym).”

 

Ryan Kielczweski, Quincy, MA:

It’s really cool fighting close to home on such a big card with double world title fights. Someday, hopelijk, I’ll be there. I’m focusing on my fight and when that’s over I’ll watch Edwin (Rodriguez) fight.

 

Javier Fortuna, De Roemeense, Dominicaanse Republiek

I feel super good and super confident. I’ve been training here (Boston) but haven’t seen much of the city. I expect a lot of fans there for me. I’ve been doing a lot of Spanish interviews. I await their approval of my performance.

 

Jonathan Guzman, Santo Domingo, Dominicaanse Republiek

I feel very, very good. Ik ben klaar om te vechten, 19 voor 19 (19 wins, 19 KO). I have a lot of family living in Lawrence (suburb) Boston) and I’ve been staying here (S. Boston).”

 

Ken Casey, President & CEO of Murphys Boxing

Boston is a sports-crazed city with a lot of good local fighters. It’s a shame a show like this hasn’t happened here in a long time. Sometimes it just takes good fighters and the right promoter to help them. It’s the perfect combination now.
