Mijlocie LUPTA programată în iunie 13 Are o istorie

Lewiston, Maine (Aprilie 20, 2015) - Cand Crowsneck Boutin (0-0) face debutul profesional în Iunie 13, 2015 la Colisee Androscoggin Bank din Lewiston, acesta va fi doar câteva zile timid de trei ani de ani de debutul de amatori în aceeași clădire foarte. Pe această cald, seara târziu de primăvară în- 2012, o mulțime de mai mult de 3,000 au adunat pentru a asista la debutul Maine fostului mondial UFC la categoria grea campion Tim “Maine-IAC” Sylvia (31-10) la Lupte New England’ (NEF) terțe mixte-de arte marțiale (MMA) eveniment. Mai devreme în acea noapte, pe cartela de porțiunea de amatori, Boutin a fost în acțiune împotriva Brent “Rece” Dillingham (1-1). Dillingham câștigat prin knock-out tehnic (OMS) în primul tur de scrutin. Asta nu a fost sfârșitul acțiunii, totuși, ca Boutin și Dillingham schimbate într-un post-încălzită lupta confruntare, au să fie separate de către funcționari.

 

Sângele rău a continuat pe parcursul ultimilor trei ani, cu cârlige ocazionale fiind aruncat de ambele părți cu privire la mass-media sociale. Adversarului Boutin pe Iunie 13 va fi nimeni altul decât antrenorul Dillingham, la MMA Athletix, “Junkyard Dog” Ryan Cowette (2-2). Când a întâlnit Dillingham, Boutin a fost un luptător independentă, cu nici o pregătire formală în artele marțiale. În lunile care au urmat, Boutin ar alătura Institutul Choi de Portland, Maine și se transforme într-un atacant prolific. Boutin este clar că luptătorul care va pas în cușcă pe Iunie 13 opus Cowette nu este același luptător de stradă nedisciplinat care a pierdut la Dillingham acum trei ani.

 

“Ca un amator cu zero zile o sală de gimnastică, Am debutat împotriva MMA Athletix,” a reamintit Boutin de debut amatori. “Fast Forward trei ani mai târziu, trei ani direct la Institutul Choi. Iată gât înapoi, Vă mulțumim pentru împrumut.”

 

Nu numai ca este Cowette șeful MMA Athletix, dar el este, de asemenea fondatorul și pastorul Bisericii Victory în Bath, Maine. După ce a suferit o mare dezamăgire atunci când adversarul său retras din meci a acestora programată în timpul luptei săptămâni de “NEF XVII” la inceputul acestei luni, Cowette este optimist în ceea ce privește Iunie 13 lupta cu Boutin.

 

“Acest lucru ar trebui să fie o luptă mare pentru fanii,” Said Cowette. “Amândoi arată până la lupta și pus pe un spectacol. Caut pentru a împinge înainte în divizia 185 de lire. Crowsneck va fi un test bun. Sunt recunoscător pentru a posibilităților de FEN-mi dă.”

Hogan Outworks Brunson on CBS Sports Network Night of Boxing


Photos by Jesse Kelley

Australia via Kildare, Irlanda WBA #12- și IBF # 11-evaluat “Uragan” Dennis Hogan (21-0-1, 7 KO) cruised to an entertaining and workmanlike 10-round decision over Philadelphia’s Tyrone “Young Gun” Brunson (22-5-1, 21 KO) la noapte, în evenimentul principal al “Campionatul de box pe CBS Sports Network” at the Grand Casino Hinckley in Hinckley, Minnesota.

Fighting in front of an appreciative sold-out crowd, Hogan outworked the careful Brunson in the majority of rounds to win by scores of 96-94, 98-92 și 97-93 and in the process, picked up the World Boxing Association’s NABA-US Super Welterweight Championship.

Hogan closed the show well and seemed to hurt Brunson with a series of clubbing shots. But Brunson was able to survive the onslaught.

Brunson, who seems to have morphed into a counter puncher since his days as the King of the KO 1 earlier in his career, had a good round eight and seemed to hurt Hogan with a right. He kept it interesting throughout by catching Hogan coming in with right hands.

Presented by Greg Cohen Promotions in association with Adam Wilcock’s Fight Card Promotions and produced by David Schuster’s Winner Take All Productions “Campionatul de box pe CBS Sports Network” was the debut CBS-televised effort from the promotional team.

Several thudding knockouts punctuated the rest of the night’s action.

În evenimentul co-principal al nopții, lightweight slugger Ismael Barroso made quick work of Memphis, Tennessee veteran Ira Terry, knocking him out inside of a round.

The southpaw Barroso, El Tigre, Venezuela, moved his record to 18-0-2, 17 KOs by flattening Terry (acum 26-14, 16 KO) with a devastating left hand. Barroso’s reputation seems to grow with every frightening performance. Terry tried moving to his left and being elusive, but it only took one shot from Barroso’s cement fists. Referee Mark Nelson began a count when Terry went down, but quickly waved it off at 2:49.

În deschidere televizate, Saint Paul, Minnesota, middleweight prospect Rob “Foarte Bine” Brant (15-0, 9 KO)made surprisingly easy work of Miami via Colombia’s Dionisio Miranda (22-11-2, 19 KO), dropping him for the full count at 2:40 de runda a doua.

Brant showed superior quickness while landing his rangy shots form outside. A right hand started the trouble for the normally durable Miranda. The follow-up volley forced Miranda down and he elected, probably wisely, not to rise. The crowd-favorite Brant remains undefeated and now has a KO win over a quality mid-level opponent on his resume.

In what turned out to be a televised swing bout, American heavyweight prospect Jarrell “Big Baby” Morar, Brooklyn, New York, moved his impressive record to 12-0-1, 10 KOs by knocking out Nairobi, Kenya’s Raymond “King Kong” Ochieng (26-19-3, 21 KO) la 1:40of the very first round.

Miller placed his heavy, accurate shots inside the wild swings of the game Ochieng and caught him with a strong combination against the ropes. Ochieng went down and referee Gary Miezwa waved it off without counting, probably prematurely.

Totuşi, the charismatic Miller looked like a solid prospect taking out a useful veteran in Ochieng, who had gone 10 rounds with Alexander Petkovic in his last fight and handed 36-1 David Rodriguez a TKO 1 loss last July.

San Antonio, Texas, super bantamweight AdamMantequilla” Lopez (11-0, 6 KO) furthered his reputation as an up-and-coming prospect by levelling Saint Paul, Minnesota’s Philip Adyaka (4-5, 2 KO) with a monstrous left hook at 58 seconds of round two. 24-year-old Lopez was too big and too powerful for the smaller Adyaka. Lopez impressed, showing off his world-class weaponry while banging to the head and body, especially with the left hook. Adyaka bravely tried to rise, but stumbled back into the ropes and the fight was waved off.

In a six-round heavyweight match-up, fan favorite Joey “Minnesota Ice” Abell (30-8, 29 KO) of nearby Coon Rapids, Minnesota, started his comeback by stopping journeyman Travis “Iron Man” Fulton (22-39-1, 21 KO) of Cedar Falls, Iowa in three rounds. Out of the ring for more than a year, the southpaw Abell finally shook off the rust and got through with a volley of punches against the ropes, which badly stunned Fulton. The came at 34 seconds with Fulton dazed but still standing. I’m starting over. I want to get a couple wins and hopefully get a big fight here,” said Abell, post-lupta. Din păcate, Abell slipped awkwardly in the first round and reportedly suffered a serious ankle injury.

In a four-round, all-Minneapolis super heavyweight showdown to open the night, 316-lb Van “Omul” Goodman, acum 4-5-2, 4 KO, picked up a good win over299-livre Brett Murphy, acum 1-1, 1 KO via TKO 2. Murphy was down in round one and twice more in round two. A tidy left uppercut was the finishing shot. Momentul opririi fost 1:38.

There was a point when I thought that they would stop the fight because of Ruslan’s cut, but his team was able to control it. I hurt my hand in the sixth round, but I kept going because I wanted to prove that I am the best in the division and that I am ready for the toughest fighters.

CARSON, Calif. (Aprilie 18, 2015) – Confident and determined, Andrzej “The PolishPrinț” Fonfara (27-3, 16 KO) spoiled the ring return of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (48-2-1, 32 KO) in resounding fashion Sâmbătă noapte, flooring the former middleweight champion one time en route to a one-sided ninth-round TKO in the main event ofSHOWTIME Campionatul BOX trăi pe ARATĂ TIMPUL.

 

Fonfara, of Chicago by way of Radon, Polonia, dropped Chavez, of Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexic, with a wide left hook 50 seconds into the ninth round before a boisterous crowd of 8,636 predominately-Chavez fans at StubHub Center. It was the first time in 52 professional fights that Chavez had hit the canvas from a punch.

I saw his punches easily coming in. I know I threw more punches. I was a little surprised that he did not come out for the (10lea) but he was cut, had been getting beat up and had just got knocked down, so he knew what would happen if he came out.

 

Chavez said before the fight that he didn’t think I could take his body punches. I think I took them pretty good and passed that test.

 

I know there are things I can still work on in training to become a more complete boxer, darla noapte was a dream come true. I want a rematch with (Light Heavyweight World Champion) Adonis Stevenson.

 

Said Chavez, the son of legendary Mexican icon, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. in the ring afterward and before he was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure, “Poate 170,172 pounds is too big for me, maybe I’ll go back down. I’m not sure what my future holds. It was a very tough fight. But I congratulate Andrzej.

 

Goossen told reporters afterward that he hadstopped the fight. It was my decision. I didn’t like what I saw. ”

 

In the first half of a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING doubleheader, undefeated world-ranked super lightweight Amir I (17-0, 14 KO), of Davie, Fla., prin Albany, N.Y., won a lopsided 10-round decision over Walter “Hammer” Castel.

 

The talented, versatile, Am, 24, controlled a fight that featured numerous exchanges especially early on with a left jab and straight right hand.

 

My combinations were effective the whole night, we stuck to our gameplan and came out victorious,” said Imam. “I want any of the world champions next”.

 

Castel, who saw a nine-fight winning streak come to an end, a spus “Am crezut că am câștigat lupta. I didn’t get credit for the punches I threw. The judge who scored it 100-90; bine, that gives me no chance to win here. The cut bothered me in the early rounds, but was not a factor after.

I saw my babies better dressed. For me this is a life-changing victory and, da, I thought it was very, very close but I absolutely feel I won.

 

I want to fight the best next, the top guys at 122 pounds and right now the top guy is Leo Santa Cruz. That’s who I’d like to fight next. I really want to thank all my team, de sus până jos, for giving me this wonderful opportunity. We’re very happy that we joined the Al Haymon team. We’re very loyal and we just really appreciate everything they’ve done for us.

 

Escandon felt he’d done enough to win despite injuring the right index finger on his right hand in the seventh round.

I did all that I could, everything was in my reach, but I think I broke or fractured my finger,” el a spus. “In boxing things happen that are out of your control. Because I hurt my hand, I couldn’t throw punches the way I wanted to with my right hand. I tried to do all I could with it. But I didn’t want to injure it further. I’m OK, but I definitely would love a rematch.

 

In the SHOWTIME EXTREME co-feature, super-semimijlocie Omar “El Businessman”Chavez (33-3-1, 22 KO), of Culiacan, the younger brother of Chavez, Jr. and son of legendary Julio Cesar Sr., won an exciting, hard-au luptat, give-and-take eight-round unanimous decision over Richard Gutierrez (28-16-1, 17 KO), of Arjona, Columbia.

Will Mayweather vs. Pacquiao Live up to the Hype?

De: Bogat Bergeron

Floyd “Bani” Mayweather Jr. (47-0, 26 KO) and MannyPac Man” Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KO) are set to clash on May 2nd, 2015 in one of the most hyped fights in boxing history. This fight is so huge they are even planning to sell tickets to the weigh-in due to crowd control issues. The proceeds will not be going to the promoters or the boxers, deși. It all goes to charity. Încă, this is a first for the state of Nevada, which traditionally requires that all weigh-ins be free of charge for fans to attend.

The level of anticipation surrounding this fight had a long time to build up. For the better part of the last decade, these two pound-for-pound juggernauts could not make this fight happen for one ridiculous reason after another. As someone who personally attended some of Mayweather’s public workouts in Vegas, I can attest to the fact that the undefeated welterweight champion repeatedly and relentlessly cited Pacquiao’s refusal to undergo Olympic style blood testing when asked about the attempts being made to get this fight signed over five years ago.

Mayweather even came up with a little rap lyric to express the issue in simple terms:

If you wanna fight the best, you gotta take the test,” he belted out during a sit-up session at one of those open workouts.

Pacquiao changed his tune on the testing and overcame the biggest hurdle of all when he met personally with Mayweather and agreed that he would be the “B” side and should therefore get a smaller split of the purse. As the video above outlines, Mayweather was then able to dominate the negotiation process.

Although pundits still say this fight will be the biggest in the history of the sport, the question must be asked if this pairing is happening too late in the careers of both fighters for it to be as exciting as some experts predict it will be.

It was always clear to me this fight would happen, but it became obvious that the longer it took to sign the contracts, the better Floyd’s chances of winning would be. Încă, Floyd did admit in 2012 că the real reason he didn’t want to fight Pacquiao was due to health concerns. He denied being scared, calling himselfsmartfor thinking about his family and his health first. Încă, he insisted that the main reason his health would be at risk in that fight was if Pacquiao was really doing steroids, as Mayweather alleged and ended up being sued over. The two settled out of court and the fight is now imminent, so some fans think it’s all water under the bridge. Others are just plain aggravated that we had to wait this long for this bout to come to fruition.

Boxing Legend Marvin Hagler even commented recently that Mayweather waited until Pacquiao aged a little more before signing to fight him. Hagler compared Mayweather’s tactics to Sugar Ray Leonard waiting until Hagler became a littlesofthimself before they signed their fight contract. That bout turned out to be hugely controversial and left Hagler extremely bitter about the sport that made him famous.

Așa, the May-Pac fight will happen, and Mayweather is the obvious favorite. To learn more about the gambling side of this story, verifică Boxing betting at William Hill site. The biggest payoff for any lucky bettor will be a successful bet on Pacquiao, but it’s easy to wonder if Pacquiao really is too old to win this time out. Dupa toate acestea, there are tons of concerns with Manny’s calf muscles seizing up, and he reportedly uses a healing cream that costs thousands of dollars per bottle to address the problem.

Mayweather (38) is actually the older fighter, but the 36-year-old Manny’s fought 17 more bouts in the pro ranks and will likely be the most active puncher “Bani” ever faced. Mayweather’s normally spectacular and overwhelming defensive prowess just might be tested.

This fight may not be worth every penny you spend on tickets or the Pay-Per-View feed, but the fact that it is finally happening is still special. It will still be a fight boxing fans everywhere around the world can enjoy and appreciate. It’s ultimately up to the fighters to prove they are both up to the task of making sure this fight lives up to expectations. Chances are, Floyd will do his best to leave the MGM Grand with an uneventful decision win. Let’s just hope Pacquiao has enough left in the tank to make sure this is the most competitive fight Mayweather’s ever been in. It may not be the most opportune time for this fight to happen, but it’s a lot better to get it late than never.
