For Immediate Release: Lewiston, Maine (Aprill 30, 2015) - New England võitleb (NEF), Ameerika number üks piirkondliku võitluse edendamine, hoiab kaheksateistkümnendal mixed-võitluskunstile (MMA) sündmus, “NEF XVIII: Made in America,” edasi Laupäev, Juuni 13, 2015 kell Androscoggin Bank Colisee Lewiston, Maine. Täna, kampaania kuulutas välja professionaalse bantamkaalu lisamise võitluskaardile. Konkursil osaletakse Elias “Oht Mouse” Leland (2-1) astudes vastassuunas puuri Chad “Kuulipilduja” Kelly (3-2) bantamkaalu piiril 135 naela.

 

“Chad Kelly ja Eli Leland on kaks poissi, kes ei saaks proovides igavat võitlust pidada,” ütles NEF kaasomanik ja edendaja Nick DiSalvo. “Tšaadil oli ‘Öine võitlus’ ühel esimestest kaartidest, mida ma aastaid tagasi Massachusettsis reklaamisin. Olen pärast seda tema karjääri jälginud ja näinud, kui kaugele ta on jõudnud. Eli võitlused varastavad NEF-i üritustel alati saate. Fännidele on selle jaoks vaja ainult oma istmete serva.”

 

Kelly ilmus viimati NEF-i puuris sügisel 2013 juures “NEF X.” Sel ööl, alistas ta NEF-i tavalise Ernesto Ornelase (1-5) teise ringi esitamise kaudu. Kelly on kogu oma karjääri jooksul regulaarselt võistelnud kärbsekaalus 125 naela, kuid ta ja tema treenerid The Fighting Arts Academy (PAAR) Leominsteris, Massachusetts otsustas ülemineku kaalukaalule viia juba eelseisvast võitlusest Lelandi vastu.

 

“Mul on väga hea meel võidelda Lewistonis NEF-i eest, Jälle Maine,” ütles Kelly, kui ta jõudis kommentaari saamiseks. “Võitlesin nende eest oma teise profivõitluse ja mulle meeldis, kuidas nad oma võitlejatesse suhtuvad ja kui sujuvalt kõik sujus – rohkem, saades ‘W’ oli tore. Selles võitluses liigun üles kaalukaussi. Arvasime oma treeneritega, et on õige aeg. Hakkasin kaklema kell 19 ja on lihtsalt kaalus juurde võtnud ja neid on massiliselt lõigatud 125, pluss treenin heade 35-aastaste ja 45-aastastega ning mul läheb paremini, kui ma olen raskem. Elias Leland on karm maadleja, kellel on head esitused. Olen kindel, et ta on karm, aga ma arvan, et mul on eelis igal pool, kus võitlus käib.”

 

Leland, Brasiilia Jiu-Jitsu pruun vöö Portlandi MMA akadeemiast, Maine, püüab kätte maksta selle kuu alguses Jay Perrinile kaotuse (2-0) juures “NEF XVII.” Kaotus oli tema esimene pärast amatöördebüüdi Ray Woodi vastu (5-1) septembris 2011. Leland on aastatega tuntuks saanud viimistlejana, esitades neli vastast ja alistades ühe tehnilise nokaudiga (WHO) eelmistel NEF-i üritustel.

 

“Ma ei austa muud kui kedagi, kes on valmis minuga võitlema,” Said Leland. “Aga, tulles kaotusest, Olen vihane ja näljane nagu pagan. See on põnev võitlus kõigile, kes seda näevad. Nii et parem oleksite kõik seal näha, et näha hämmastavat saadet.”

 

NEF järgmiseks MMA üritus, “NEF XVIII: Made in America” on pärit Androscoggin Bank Colisee Lewiston, Maine juunil 13, 2015.

LAS VEGAS (Aprill 29, 2015) - Floyd "Money" Mayweather ja Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao faced off for only the third time Kolmapäev during the final press conference for their long-awaited welterweight world championship unification fight this Laupäev, Mai 2, at MGM Grand Garden Arena, live on pay-per-view.

 

The last time the boxing superstars met face-to-face was at the Los Angeles press conference to formally announce the mega-fight on Märts 11. The first time they were photographed up close and personal came at a Miami Heat basketball game in January.

 

In the most eagerly awaited showdown in years – and the richest fight in boxing history — the undefeated and universally recognized No. 1 pound-for-pound boxer Mayweather (47-0, 26 Kos), an 11-time world champion in five weight divisions, will take on the fighting pride of the Philippines, Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 Kos), the only boxer to capture world titles in eight weight classes.

 

Here is what the fighters and executives said Kolmapäev at the KÀ Theatre at the MGM Grand:

Floyd Mayweather

“The only thing I can do is take it one day at a time. When the fight gets here I will go out there and do what I do best and that’s go out and fight.

 

“From the beginning of my career, I’ve always had a game plan. It’s just like chess. We make calculated moves in the ring and outside the ring. I got with the right team and surrounded myself with the right chess pieces.

 

“I’m a lot wiser than I once was. This fight sells itself. Our ultimate goal was to get to this point, whether it was Manny or another fighter.

 

“I don’t take anything away from Manny Pacquiao. He’s a solid fighter; a solid competitor and it will be an intriguing matchup come Saturday.

 

“Everything takes time, it’s all about timing. I’m glad that we had patience and didn’t rush. The time is now, this is the right time for this fight.

 

“I want to thank all the writers for being here. Some have been around since I was 10-years-old, some have been here for my 19 years in this sport. I’m thankful for all the writers, whether the stories were good stories or bad, you guys kept me relevant for 19 aastat.

 

“This fight is about one fighter who is at the top fighting another fighter who is at the top. It’s about giving you guys excitement. We don’t know how this fight is going to play out, but I believe in my skills. I believe I am going to be victorious.

 

“When I went to training camp I worked extremely hard to win this fight and I’m pretty sure Manny did the same. That’s why this is an intriguing matchup.”

MANNY PACQUIAO

“I don’t have a prediction, but I’m excited. I’m confident and I feel for the first time that I’m ready for the fight.

"I’m so happy because that feeling and that focus that I had many years ago, on tagasi. I’m confident and relaxed.

“My love and eagerness for this fight has made me especially interested.

“I would like to invite everyone to witness the great fight between Floyd and I this Saturday.

“I want to be an example and inspiration to people.

“Before I became a boxer, I used to sleep on the street. I can’t believe that I am in this position. The boy who didn’t have food and slept on the street can have this life.

“On Saturday our goal is to make the fans happy with our performance. Both of us will work very hard to entertain the fans and give a good fight.

“I hope that both Floyd and I do our best on Saturday and to put our name in boxing history.

“The most important thing I hope for is that after the fight I can talk with Floyd about being an inspiration to people all around the world.”

Floyd Mayweather SR., Mayweather isa & Treener

 

“Whatever happens on Saturday, it’s going to be one-sided. Pacquiao is going to sleep.

 

“I’m a trainer, I know what’s going on with fighters. Pacquiao doesn’t have it.

 

“Everybody can say what they want to say. I’ve said it before, Pacquiao can’t punch. I’m not worried about it. I’m going to have Floyd walk him down.”

 

FREDDIE ROACH, Pacquiao on Trainer

“When this fight was announced, Manny’s training level went way up. He’s really excited about this fight.

 

“I think we will win a decision and outpoint this guy. If the knockout comes then that will be a bonus.

“I think Manny likes to be the underdog. We like pulling upsets and doing things we’re not supposed to do. Manny is going to be that guy.

“We will put a lot of pressure on Floyd. Manny likes to exchange and with his hand speed, this fight will go in our favor.

“Manny is reckless, but that’s his style. He tries to win fights and people enjoy his fights. He gives it his all and sometimes you get knocked out, that’s part of boxing.”

 

LEONARD Ellerbe, Tegevjuht Mayweather Kampaaniad

 

“The worldwide attention and interest in this event has been unbelievable and Floyd and Manny deserve it.

 

“Las Vegas has a rich history of hosting the biggest and best fights in the sport. Over the years Floyd Mayweather has made the MGM his home. This will be his 11th consecutive fight at MGM Grand and the 14th in his career.

 

“There are two great fighters that will be fighting on Saturday night and the focus needs to be on the fighters, no one else. The focus is on the fighters on Saturday night.

 

“On May 2, Floyd faces another huge challenge in fellow world champion Manny Pacquiao, in a fight that the whole world is waiting to see. Once again Floyd is out to prove that he is The Best Ever and I know he will on Saturday night.”

 

BOB ARUM, Hall of Fame elluviija, Top Rank

 

“This is a great promotion with two great fighters. I hope that this fight will help elevate the rest of boxing. I think based on the interest in this fight, there has been increased interest in boxing as well, and that’s great.

 

“People have spent a lot of time during this event watching Manny train, but more importantly, watching Freddie teach. It’s great to see two guys on the same wavelength, working on the strategy and then working it out in the ring.”

 

KEN HERSHMAN, President, HBO Sport

 

“The journey to this fight has been a remarkable one. In addition to the great writing and reporting that all the media has been doing, HBO has been putting on terrific programs for fight fans to enjoy and bring them closer to the sport.

 

“One important note for everyone, please order the pay-per-view Saturday night early, or if possible today or tomorrow. We expect that the ordering systems will be overwhelmed. Ka, there will be two undercard events starting at 9 Pärastlõunal. ET / 6 Pärastlõunal. PT and those events can end at any time. We want to make sure that no one misses any of the main event. Tune-in and tune-in early.”

 

STEPHEN Espinoza, Executive Vice President ja peadirektor, Showtime Sport

 

“This event is about two world-class athletes, Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, who have been working for weeks and weeks, all of their lives really, to get to this precise moment.

 

“These two fighters have worked their entire lives to get to this moment.

 

“Floyd and Manny have great teams. Floyd will be the first one to tell you that his team deserves a lot of the credit for his success and I’ve heard Manny say very similar things.

 

“What makes this event so special and so historic, is that we have two once-in-a-generation athletes who will be meeting in the ring in about 72 tööaeg. We are so proud to have been given the opportunity to be a part of such a highly anticipated event.”

 

RICHARD STORM, President Meelelahutus & Sport MGM Resorts International

“Excitement for this event has resonated throughout our MGM Resorts properties and the entire Las Vegas community.

 

“We have created additional programming at the resorts including closed circuit viewing that gives fans the chance to experience MGM’s great championship fights.

 

“We just want to thank everybody involved in this great event. We’re excited, we’re proud and we can’t wait for Saturday night.”

George Foreman on CBS Sports Radio’s “The Doug Gottlieb Show” on the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather Match

Jäta kommentaar

“Boxing was invented for the underdog… That’s why I give it to Pacquiao.”

 

Eile (Aprill 28), two-time World Heavyweight Champion George Foreman was on CBS Sports Radio’s “The Doug Gottlieb Show” with host Doug Gottlieb, where he talked about the Manny Pacquiao versus Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight on Laupäev, May 2nd Las Vegas. Below are somehighlights from the interview:

 

On the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather Fight:

Talking honestly about what he thinks about “The Fight of the Century”,Foreman öeldud: “This is major… boxing deserves something like this… I’m just happy the fight is happening, and it’s happening right now. Because everyone will get a chance to see what they wanted to see. If it had happened five years ago, there would have been some too young to enjoy [ja] some old enough to say, "Kuule, there was better days.’ But now everyone’s hungry for the matchup of the century. [These are] evenly matched fighters. It’s a fan’s fight, and it should be. It’s big.”

 

Foreman continued later on in the interview: “That’s true… [Mayweather’s] got everything to lose. But boxing was invented for the underdog – for the smaller guy who doesn’t have a chance – to come up with a way to beat the bigger, stronger guy. That’s why I give it to Pacquiao. The sport was invented… for the lesser.”

 

On Advice He would Give Pacquiao:

Gottlieb asked what advice Foreman would give to Pacquiao for this match: “Hey, just win this round," Foreman öeldud. “Every time you come back to the corner, you sit down on the stool, wave the towel over him and don’t say anything. The bell rings, go get him again. Do the same thing you did the first round all the way through the sixth or seventh round, and you’ll win.”

PBC ON SPIKE MAIN EVENT FIGHTERS AMIR KHAN, CHRIS ALGIERI, PAULIE MALIGNAGGI AND DANNY O’CONNOR MAKE THEIR MAYWEATHER VS. PACQUIAO PREDICTIONS

Jäta kommentaar

BROOKLYN (Aprill 29, 2015) – Poks superstaar Amir “Kuningas” Khaan (30-3, 19 Kos) tagasi sõrmus Mai 29 to take on former world champion Chris Algieri (20-1, 8 Kos) Barclays Center Brooklyn, NY, as the headliner of an exciting Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) kaardi Spike TV.

 

Opening up the televised action, which is set to begin at 9 Pärastlõunal. JA/PT, will be the return of Brooklyn’s own two-time world champion Paulie Malignaggi (33-6, 7KO poolt) as he faces Boston’s Danny O'Connor (25-2, 9KO poolt) in a 10-round welterweight attraction.

With the Mayweather vs. Pacquiao welterweight championship showdown just days away, Khaan, Algieri, Malignaggi and O’Connor gave their take on how the most anticipated fight of this era will go down.

 

Amir Khan: “This is a fight that the world has been wanting to see for so long and it’s great that it is now upon us. Floyd and Manny are two legendary fighters and it is only right that we get to see them share the ring together. I have no doubt that this is going to be a tremendous matchup and will be extremely exciting for as long as it lasts. Manny has hand speed and fast feet that will cause Floyd some problems early on, but as it progresses I expect Floyd to make the adjustments he tends to make to counter that before pulling away on the scorecards. Both fighters still have so much to give and laupäeval night I’m sure they’re going to produce something very special for the fans.”

 

Chris Algieri: “Styles make fights and I believe this is a style that suits Floyd. Floyd is the smartest fighter in the game. He will be able to pick up on certain flaws and exploit them. Manny is going to make him work in there and I believe that the first few rounds are going to be very interesting. Manny is a different and smarter fighter than he was before the Marquez knockout. If Manny comes in shape the way that he did against me, and if Floyd has missed a step at all, then I see Pacquiao giving him all kinds of trouble. Ultimately though, I see Mayweather winning a decision.”

 

Paulie Malignaggi: “I am taking Mayweather by wide decision or a late-round stoppage. He has too much variation to his arsenal. Pacquiao is fun to watch, but his one-dimensional approach won’t be enough laupäeval öösel.”

 

Danny O'Connor: “I am going with Mayweather. He is too smart to fall into anyone’s game plan, other than his own. I predict a decision based off of his superior boxing ability.”

 

Tickets for the live event on Mai 29 Barclays Center, promoted by DiBella Entertainment and Star Boxing, on hinnaga $250, $150, $75 ja $45, ei sisalda kohaldatav teenustasud ja maksud, ja on müügil nüüd.

Harold Weston: “I guess there’s no comeback for me because I’ve been told when you go into the Hall of Fame, it’s over. Thanks for this honor. I wondered how long it was going to take (jokingly), you got it right this time. Boxing is my family. Minu isa, Gil Clancy and Emile Griffith, these guys brought me up. Boxing always got me to where I needed to go. Boxing made us the person we are today. This is an honor because there’s no Hall of Fame bigger than New York. Thanks a lot. I’m looking forward to the future.”

Lonnie Bradley: “I’d like to thank everyone, especial these two guys (Bobby Cassidy and Bobby Cassidy, Jr.). I called Bobby for advice. We met and then had a good ride for four years.

The bond is there because it’s a family affair.”

(L-R) – Henry Hascup, Saul Mamby and Melvina Latham

Saul Mamby: “I fought all over the world; one way to see the world. Most do it by taking a vacation. Me, I went around the world fighting people. I went to South Korea and won the world title but nobody knew. In my first title defense against Estephan Jesus, people were stunned to hear Saul Mamby was champion of the world. A lot of people who fought never had a chance to fight for the championship of the world. I lost the title but…I was really ripped off. Thanks for putting me in the Hall of Fame. It’s an honor that I didn’t think would ever happen. I’m too old, 67, to fight but I still go to the gym. I think I can still do it but I’m not going to try. I appreciate this.”

Mr. & Mrs. Bruce Silverglade

Bruce Silverglade: “I’d like to thank Ring 8 and everybody on the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame nominating committee. I grew-up in Trenton, New Jersey, and my father was a police officer who liked boxing the best. After graduating from college, I worked at Sears Roebuck for 16 aastat. I called my father asking how I could get involved in boxing. I resigned from Sears Roebuck the next day and bought 50-percent of a gym with my profit sharing.I took over Gleason’s Gym in 1985. My concept of a gym was not just to train fighters, but for politics, heart and sports to come together. We’ve had concerts, off-Broadway plays, weddings and chamber music there. We founded a charity, ‘Give A Kid A Dream,’ sisse 1981 for kids 8-18 aastastele. These kids could come from schools, orphanages, parole officers, or from mothers of troubled kids. Boxing is about discipline. They can go thee seven days a week. We’re not building champions as boxers, but champion citizens in New York City. The inspiration comes from my wife who is the driving force behind the gym. Thank you for this tremendous honor to be a Hall of Famer.”

Tommy Gallagher and his wife, Maureen

Tommy Gallagher: “Thank you to so many people. Boxing has been my life and I wanted my first gym in 1951. I was friends with Rocky Graziano and Billy Graham, who’d drop by my gym to tell us about fighters. This is a wonderful time in my life. I want to thank my wife and family.”

(L-R) – Joey Giambra and his son, Joey Giambra, Jr.

Joey Giambra: “Thank you all for coming out. I want to thank Bob Duffy and Ring 8. I’m honored and thank them for voting me in. I’m so honored and humbled.”

 

(L-R) – Bob Duffy, Bob Miller, Melvina Latham and Miller’s wife, Linda

Bob Miller: “Thanks for inducting me into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame. The people who’ve come before makes you realize what this means, I’ve trained, managed, promoted and been a cut-man. The best part is the relationships with fighters from so many different backgrounds. I have so many stories. I thank them for allowing me to be part of their lives and see things most wouldn’t. I’m humbled to be inducted in this class.”

Bob Duffy: “I want to thank Ring 8’s nominating committee for voting me into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame and everybody who helped put this together like Keith Sullivan, Ron mcnair, Melvina Latham, Jack Hirsch and so many others. I want to congratulate the guys sitting up here. I had an office in Gleason’s Gym and worked Bobby Miller’s shows upstate. I’m very humbled. I grew up on the East Side of Manhattan in the projects. Juures 14, I had a chance to go to fights at The Garden because I lived only eight blocks away. This is a labor of love. I want to thank my family that has always been supportive. I’ve always felt family first, boxing second, and that’s been my life.”

Jäta kommentaar

Lewiston, Maine (Aprill 28, 2015) - New England võitleb (NEF), Ameerika number üks piirkondliku võitluse edendamine, hoiab kaheksateistkümnendal mixed-võitluskunstile (MMA) sündmus, “NEF XVIII: Made in America,” edasi Laupäev, Juuni 13, 2015 kell Androscoggin Bank Colisee Lewiston, Maine. Täna, kampaanias teatati amatööride kergekaalu lisamisest võitluskaardile. See võistlus toimub Jason “Second Chance” Lachance (1-1) tagasituleku enda peale võtmine “Ohtlik” Kohtuotsus “Kivi käed” Cofone (5-5) kell võitlus kaaluga 155 naela.

 

Jason Lachance Brunswickist, Maine debüteeris MMA-s mais 2014 juures “NEF XIII.” Sel ööl langetas ta otsuse, kuid Lachance avaldas paljudele muljet oma esinemisega kogenuma Jarrod Tyleri vastu (3-1). Ta naaseb möödunud veebruaris NEF-i puuri võiduga Steve Bangi üle, Jr. (3-3) via ühehäälse otsusega. Lachance on Ryan Cowette'i toode (2-2) MMA Athletixi jõusaal ja võidukiriku teenistus, mõlemad asuvad Bathis, Maine.

 

“Jumal on mind õnnistanud veel ühe võimalusega astuda NEF-i puuri ja teha seda, mida mulle meeldib teha,” ütles Lachance. “Võimalus, mille eest olen tõeliselt tänulik. Olen keskendunud antud ülesandele ja 13. juunil, Olen valmis kõigeks, mis vähegi ette tuleb.”

 

NEF-i harrastajate ridades tõeline veteran, Dom Cofone on aastate jooksul pakkumise puuris tekitanud palju meeldejäävaid hetki. Aastal võitis Cofone A-klassi osariigi meistrivõistlused 2001 maadlus Westbrooki keskkooli jaoks Westbrookis, Maine. Ta pani kokku tähtede plaadi 117-28 keskkooli maadlejakarjääri jooksul. Cofone on viimastel kuudel MMA võistluselt puhanud, et keskenduda Westbrooki noorte maadlusmeeskonna juhendamisele. Oma eelmise jõusaaliga, Tasakaalustatud maapealne MMA, pausi ajal, Cofone on hiljuti alustanud treeninguid Jay Jackis (12-7) ja Amanda Buckneri oma (11-5) Portlandi MMA akadeemia, Maine.

 

“Võtsin aja maha, et aidata oma poja noorte maadlusmeeskonda juhendada – hüüdke kõigile Westbrooki Wolfpacki lastele,” ütles Cofone. “Mul oli vaja ka pisut aktiivsest kahest aastast puuris sisse ja välja ravida. Tunnen end noorenenud. Hakkasin just akadeemias tagasi treenima ja mul on väga hea meel õppida nii palju kui võimalik sellelt toredalt meeskonnalt. Olen varem Jasoniga kohtunud – tundub, et ta on tõesti suurepärane tüüp. Olin tema mõlemas võitluses, nii et ma tean, et temast saab karm nael, mängu vastane. Olin tribüünil viimasel NEF-i üritusel ja ilma ‘Dominick The Donkey’ta lihtsalt ei tundunud see õige’ kõlaritest välja. See on fännidele suurepärane matš ja ma loodan näha Androscoggin Bank Colisee pakkimist. Täname kõiki, kes tulevad välja kohalikku MMA-d toetama.”
