December 9, 2017 (Hialeah, FL) – Bryant “Goodfella” Perrella returned to the ring with a hard-fought unanimous decision victory over Alex “Chi-Town Heat” Martin Friday, December 8.
The eight round welterweight bout took place at the Hialeah Racetrack in Hialeah, FL and aired on FS1.
Fighting for the first time in 14 maanden and coming off a severe injury, Perrella looked to impress from the opening bell. The Fort Myers native came out aggressive and decked Martin with a picture perfect right hook in the opening round. Perrella continued to be the aggressor while the Chicago-based Martin picked his spots and relied on movement. Martin had a few good moments later in the fight but Perrella’s power and punch output earned him a clear-cut victory.
Scores waren 79-72 tweemaal en 77-74. Perrella improves to 15-1 met 13 KO’s while Martin is 13-3 (5 KO's).
"It felt great to come back” said Perrella. “I didn’t feel any ring rust and I’m satisfied with my performance. I controlled the fight with my jab and ring generalship (even after) he went into survival mode. I’m back and ready for whoever they put in front of me. My goal is still to become a world champion!"

Top Heavyweight Contender Luis “King Kong” Ortiz Clashes With Daniel Martz in a Featured Attraction on a Special Friday Night Edition of Premier Boxing Champions TOE-TO-TOE TUESDAYS on FS1 & BOXEO DE CAMPEONES on FOX Deportes Dec. 8, From Hialeah Park in Miami, Florida

MEER! Welterweight Prospects Bryant Perrella & Alex Martin
Square-Off and Unbeaten Featherweight Prospects Stephen Fulton and Adam Lopez Meet in Undercard Matchup
MIAMI (December 4, 2017) – Top-rated heavyweight title contender Luis “King Kong” Ortiz zal op zich te nemen Daniel “The MountainMartz in an added 10-round featured bout on a special Friday night edition of Premier Boxing Champions TOE-tot-teen DINSDAG op FS1 en Boksen Champions on FOX Deportes at Hialeah Park in Miami, Florida op December. 8.
The main event of the card features Ahmed Elbiali nemen op de voormalige wereldkampioen Jean Pascal in een 10-ronde licht zwaargewicht gevecht. Televised coverage of the 2-1/2 hour show begins at 9 p.m. EN/6 p.m. PT with a battle between unbeaten featherweight prospects Stephen Fulton (11-0, 5 KO) en Adam Lopez (8-0, 3 KO) and also features welterweight prospects Bryant Perrella (14-1, 13 KO) en Alex Martin(13-2, 5 KO) in undercard action.
Ortiz is returning to the ring one week after the World Boxing Council lifted a sanction that it had imposed against the Cuban heavyweight contender in October. Ortiz was pulled from a match against world champion Deontay Wilder scheduled for Nov. 4, after Ortiz failed a Voluntary Anti-Doping Association drug test. Last week the WBC ruled that Ortiz had failed to disclose two medications that he was taking, which triggered his positive test. He was fined $25,000 for failing to make the disclosure, and re-instated into the organization’s rankings.
That cleared the way for Ortiz to return to the ring, and he will waste no time doing so with a match that he hopes will help propel him toward another world title shot in 2018.
I’m just thankful to be back in the sport I love so much. I can’t wait to get some action and feel that ring and those gloves tight on my wrist,” Ortiz said. “I’d like to thank everyone, especially my loyal fans, who stood by me and supported me through this rough time. I don’t think it would have been possible without you guys. I’d like to thank the WBC and Mr. Sulaiman for being humane enough to take time for their investigation, and my entire team who never lost faith in me. But most of all I need to thank God because without him there wouldn’t be anything worth living for.
The 38-year-old Ortiz (27-0, 23 KO), of Camaguey, Cuba now resides in Miami, Fla., and will be fighting Martz in a 10-round bout in front of his adopted hometown crowd. The hard-hitting southpaw turned pro seven years ago after defecting from Cuba and has since been steadily climbing the heavyweight ladder. He cemented his standing in the division with victories over veteran contenders Bryant Jennings, Tony Thompson and Malik Scott and is currently ranked No. 3 door de WBC. Ortiz hasn’t fought in almost a year, having scored a technical knockout victory over David Allen at Manchester Arena in England on Dec. 10, 2016 in zijn laatste gevecht.
Ortiz-Martz replaces the Chad Dawson-Edwin Rodriguez light heavyweight bout on the card. The match was cancelled after Dawson suffered an injury in training camp.
The 27-year-old Martz (16-5-1, 13 KO), a 6-foot-7 heavyweight from Clarksburg, West Virginia, has taken on world champion Joseph Parker and contender Bryant Jennings during his five-year professional career. He is coming off a second round technical knockout victory over Tim Washington on Nov. 17.

Fort Myers, FL (November 30, 2017) – Welterweight Bryant “Goodfella” Perrella returns to the ring against Alex “Chi Town Heat” Martin Vrijdag, December 8 at Hialeah Park in Miami, FL.
The Perrella-Martin showdown is scheduled for 10 rounds and airs on FS1 at 9 PM ET as part of Premier Boxing Champions’ “PBC op FS1” serie. The bout proceeds a light heavyweight matchup between former world champion Jean Pascal and unbeaten Ahmed Elbiali.
Fighting for the first time since a disappointing setback against Yordenis Ugas in September 2016, Perrella’s an outstanding 14-1 met 13 wint door knock-out. The Fort Myers native has impressive stoppage victories over David Grayton (14-0), Ramon Ayala (25-5-1), Abraham Alvarez (20-8-1) and Patrick Boozer (11-3). A self-described gym rat, the 28-year-old has spent the last year fine-tuning his skills while also allowing a lingering injury to heal.
Living and fighting out of Chicago, IL, Martin is 13-2 as a pro and has 5 victories via knockout. In 2016, he scored a career best win by outpointing Juan Carlos Abreu (19-2-1) over acht rondes. Prior to entering the paid ranks, Martin was one of America’s top amateur boxers, het winnen van de 2012 Nationale Golden Gloves, 3 Chicago Golden Gloves titles and captured a silver medal at the 2011 Nationale Golden Gloves. Martin is coming off consecutive slugfests with Miguel Cruz where he came up short both times, but a win over Perrella would put him back in the picture.
“Alex Martin is a talented fighter but like myself, is coming off a defeat,” said Perrella. “I’m expecting him to be at his best because this is an important fight for both of us. Training is great so far and we’ve traveled throughout Florida to work with some awesome fighters. I will be fully prepared for December 8 and plan to show everybody that my last fight was a fluke.”

BETHLEHEM, PA. (Juni 28, 2017) – Miguel Cruz (16-0, 11 KO) verdiende een unaniem besluit om te verslaan Alex Martin (13-2, 5 KO) en bleef ongeslagen in een rematch tegen het weltergewicht die kopte Premier Boxing Champions TOE-tot-teen DINSDAG op FS1 enBoksen Champions op FOX Deportes Dinsdag nacht van het Sands Bethlehem Events Center in Bethlehem, Vader.
Na het winnen van een split-decision tegen Martin in hun confrontatie in januari, Cruz hield zijn perfecte staat van dienst intact door twee knockdowns te scoren voordat hij de beslissing kreeg in hun wedstrijd van 10 ronden.
“Ik voelde me eerlijk gezegd niet zo goed in ons eerste gevecht en toen ik het opnieuw bekeek, Ik dacht dat Martin had gewonnen,” zei Cruz. “Dat zorgde ervoor dat ik steeds harder trainde dan ooit om te bewijzen dat ik de vaardigheden en kracht heb om op wereldniveau te concurreren, en ik denk dat ik dat gedaan heb vanavond.”
Cruz kende een snelle start door een enorme linkse hoek te landen die Martin ving en hem laat in de eerste ronde liet vallen. Martin was in staat om overeind te komen en te herstellen net voordat de bel klonk om de ronde te beëindigen.
Martin bleef proberen aan de binnenkant te werken, maar Cruz was vastbesloten om terug te duwen en landde consequent met grote krachtschoten. Een andere linkse hoek in ronde vier stuurde Martin weer naar de mat, hoewel hij minder getroffen leek dan tijdens de eerste knockdown.
“Ik vocht tegen zijn gevecht vanavond,” zegt Martin. “Ik heb gewoon niet mijn beste prestatie neergezet. De eerste knockdown was een echte knockdown, maar bij de tweede knockdown raakte hij me in mijn achterhoofd.”
Rond vijf zag Martin effectiever boksen, verschillende rechterhanden landen voordat een linkse hoek laag landde, Cruz naar het canvas sturen en ervoor zorgen dat scheidsrechter Gary Rosato het gevecht stopzet terwijl Cruz herstelt.
Toen de actie werd hervat, bleef Martin het tij van het gevecht keren. Zijn beweging was zeer effectief en zijn succes met de linkerhand was consistent gedurende de ronde vijf tot en met acht.
“Martin was superstoer,” zei Cruz. “Ik dacht niet dat hij de tweede ronde zou halen, maar hij bezorgde me zeker problemen. Ik probeerde hem te stoppen.”
Onderaan op de scorekaarten vanwege de vroege knockdowns, Martin's comeback-inspanning kwam te kort toen Cruz in staat was om Martin af te houden in de laatste twee rondes op weg naar de beslissing in de ogen van alle drie de juryleden door de score van 96-92.
“Ik wist dat ik weer in de strijd zou komen, maar ik verzin geen excuses vanavond,” zegt Martin. “Hij won het gevecht eerlijk en vierkant, felicitaties aan hem.”
“Ik trainde voor Martin alsof hij de wereldkampioen was en zo ga ik trainen voor elk gevecht in mijn carrière,” zei Cruz. “Het was een enorm gevecht, Ik ben blij dat ik de overwinning heb behaald. Ik wil gewoon terug naar Puerto Rico en mijn verjaardag vieren morgen.”
Extra actiezaag op televisie Clarence Booth (15-3, 8 KO) stop Puerto Rico's Anthony Mercado (10-3, 9 KO) in de vierde ronde van hun weltergewichtwedstrijd.
De grotere Mercado had al vroeg in het gevecht succes terwijl Booth probeerde zich een weg naar binnen te banen en het lichaam aan te vallen. Mercado landde een paar schone rechterhanden in elk van de eerste twee rondes die Booth leken te verdoven.
“Hij was een harde vechter,” zei Booth. “Ik moest loskomen voor de eerste paar rondes. Ik was in het begin gespannen.”
Vechten uit St.. Petersburg, Florida, Booth was in staat om de storm in de eerste twee rondes te doorstaan ​​en begon het tij te keren in ronde drie met een schone rechterhand die Mercado wankelde..
Booth hield de vaart erin en zette Mercado in de vierde ronde snel op het doek met een paar rechterhanden. Mercado was in staat om overeind te komen, maar uiteindelijk brak Booth weer door en verbaasde Mercado met meer rechterhanden. De laatste vlaag bracht scheidsrechter Eric Dali ertoe om de wedstrijd stop te zetten 1:30 in het vierde frame.
“Ik had een paar zware verliezen, maar nu ben ik aan een grote comeback,” zei Booth. “Ik ben zo blij met deze kans op televisie en ik heb er het beste van gemaakt. Mijn promotor Marshall Kauffman en King's Promotions zullen me in de toekomst geweldige kansen bieden.”
“Hij sloeg me met een goed schot,” zei Market. “Hij prikte en kwam met een rechterhand die ik niet zag aankomen. Ik zal nog beter terugkomen.”

Here is what Lara had to say about Foreman, training camp with Ronnie Shields and more:
Op zijn recente trainingskamp…
We just wrapped up about a week and we got some good rest during fight week. Training camp has been very productive. I’m comfortable with my weight and I feel strong going into this fight. My strength and conditioning is right where I want it. Ronnie and I are always polishing up on the things I do well. Globaal, it’s been a great camp.
On facing former world champion Yuri Foreman
I’m grateful to Yuri Foreman for accepting this fight. I know he’s hungry to get back in the ring. He wants to prove that he’s still relevant in the super welterweight division. He’s a former world champion who knows what it’s like to win at the elite level. I’m not looking past Yuri Forman, but I’m very confident I’ll be victorious. I feel I’m going to be the superior fighter when we both step in the ring morgen nachts.”
On returning to Miami to fight in front of a large Cuban community
My last fight here was amazing and the fan support was unbelievable. I got the knockout and I’m hoping to do the same again. If I see my opponent hurt, I’ll be looking to take him out. I love my Cuban countrymen and all their support, as well as my American fans. Miami is like a second home to me and I can’t wait to give the fans a great show.
On the state of the super welterweight division
The division, naar mijn mening, is the most talented division in boxing. Everyone at the top is looking to cement their legacy in boxing history and everyone is spectacular. In the future, we will all have to face each other at some point. Zo, expect some unification bout to be presented, and may the best man rise to the top. I know I’m ready to fight everyone, but first I must get past Foreman.
On fighting in the main event on Spike
Fighting on Spike, als de belangrijkste gebeurtenis, is going to fantastic. The exposure is wonderful for any athlete competing on their network. Boxing is a great sport, and Spike TV is helping us gain more fans with their viewers. The PBC is doing an excellent job. I’m very happy to be fighting on network television.

Here is what the participants had to say from the Turf Club at Hialeah Park:
Erislandy LARA
Thank you everyone for coming, especially Spike TV and Hialeah Park. Thanks to Team Foreman for taking this fight. Het gaat om een ​​geweldig gevecht worden Vrijdag nacht.
Yuri Foreman is a great fighter and a very smart fighter. I am also a very smart fighter, dus Vrijdag night we’re going to find out who is the smarter one in the ring.
“Ik voel me geweldig. Very happy to be back in Miami in front of my Cuban and Latin fans. This is a great night for Miami and Spike and I plan on putting on a show and making a statement to the boxing world.
“Ik voel me geweldig. I’m in great shape and feel very strong. Ik ben nu klaar om te vechten. I just want the bell to ring.
Yuri Foreman
It’s great to be here in Miami where it’s nice and warm and with so many great fighters on this card. I’m ready and looking forward to Vrijdag. I came here to win and I feel very positive about this.
Erislandy Lara is a great fighter, but me being from the Soviet Union, I’m very familiar with Cuban boxing and have quite a bit of experience with their style, so I’m looking forward to stepping in and showcasing my talents and skills.
Being a rabbi, it is sometimes very interesting to mix that with fighting, maar Vrijdag night I won’t be in rabbi mode. I will be all fighter. We are going to show skills and heart and power op vrijdag nachts.”
ANTHONY Dirrell
I think this is my third Spike event and I’m happy to be fighting on a show with two great fighters like Lara and Foreman.
It’s going to be a hell of a show. We are going to put on a great show. All the fights on the card are tremendous fightsundefeated fighters fighting undefeated fighters and champions fighting champions and we are all coming to win.
I was going to talk a lot of trash to him (Nemespati), but he can’t understand me anyway. I am looking forward to a great fight against a good opponent like him. Zorg ervoor dat u afstemmen op op vrijdag and catch the action!”
NORBERT NEMESAPATI
I am coming in as the smaller fighter, so I will have to put a lot of pressure on him. I sparred a lot of rounds for this fight, with a lot of tall guys. That’s fine with me that he is taller because I love to punch to the body.
I might never get another opportunity like this, so I have to make the most of it. This is a beautiful place and I’m coming to the ring to win big. Thank you for this very special opportunity.
MIGUEL CRUZ
I wish that Alex Martin was here so I could talk a little smack to his face.
“13-0, 11 KOs vs. 13-0, 5 KO… basically somebody’s ‘0’ has to go and I can give you a hintit’s not going to be mine.
I’m going to crush him like an ant with a sledgehammer. I’m going to destroy him. That’s the plan. Mis het niet.”
