LAS VEGAS (Oktober 27, 2020) – Kalifornien tungvikt Alexander “Den Store” Blommor (18-2-1, 16 Kos), vars enda proffsförluster har varit för världsmästare, kommer att få möjlighet till sin boxningskarriär i november 7th, när han tar ut två gånger världsutmanaren Luis “King Kong” Ortiz (26 Kos).

“Ortiz är en tvåfaldig världsutmanare som har mycket erfarenhet,” Sa Flores. “Jag är ung, hungrig, drivna och beslutsamma att vinna. Att slå Ortiz är en livsförändrande möjlighet som jag inte tar för givet.”

“Ortiz är en stor kämpe,” Blommor’ promotor Keith Veltre (RJJ Boxing VD / medgrundare) tillsatt, “men jag tror att han kanske ångrar att ha kämpat mot ett hungrigt lejon som Flores. Att bekämpa eliten i den tyngre divisionen har aldrig varit ett problem för Alexander, vars enda två förluster har varit för världsmästare. Han fick ovärderlig erfarenhet i de slagsmål som han tar in i ringen mot Oritz. Vi vill tacka Team Ortiz, PBC och FOX för denna enorma möjlighet.”

Ortiz, en 41-årig southpaw, har besegrat en litany av tungviktare i världsklass under hans 10 ½ år pro karriär, inklusive Christian Hammer, Travis Kaufman, Malik Scott, Tony Thompson, Bryan Jennings, Monte Barrett, Lateef Kayode och Epifanio Mendoza. Som amatör, Ortiz hade en rapport 349-19 post, och han fångade en guldmedalj vid 2006 Kubanska SM.

Alexander “The Great” Flores In New Zealand to challenge former world champion Joseph Parker this Saturday

Lämna en kommentar
“I’m going there to win, I see myself knocking him out!"

LAS VEGAS (December 10, 2018) – Upset-minded heavyweight prospect Alexander “The Great” Flores departed a week ago on a 13-hour flight from California to New Zealand to challenge former world heavyweight champion Joseph Parker denna lördag (Dec.15) in Christchurch, Nya Zeeland.

“Beating Parker will get me a step closer to my goal to be the first Mexican-American to become world heavyweight champion,” Flores said. “I can’t picture myself losing, not the way I feel. I’ve had a long, hard training camp for this fight. It’s really been a couple years, because some fights fell through.”

A former World Boxing Council (WBC) Youth World Heavyweight Champion, the 28-year-old Flores (17-1-1, 15 Kos) has a new lease on his pro boxing career, now promoted by Roy Jones, Jr. (RJJ) Boxning.

“Alex has worked hard during the past two months,” addedKeith Veltre, CEO/co-founder of Roy Jones, Jr. Boxning. “I truly believe Joseph Parker has no clue what he is in for with him. Like I said before, Alex is headed to New Zealand for the W, and he will leave it all in the ring. It has been a huge mistake on Parker’s part to overlook Alex.”

On a mission to become the first Mexican-American heavyweight champion of the world, Flores has already had a significant first leading up to this fight versus Parker. He experienced his initial flight a few months ago to do media work in New Zealand to promote the Dec. 15 slagsmål.

"Yeah,” Flores explained, “that was my first flight. Det tog 13 timmar, but I slept five or six hours, so it wasn’t too bad, other than being a little cold there. New Zealand is a beautiful country. The only thing I really need to acclimate to is the 20-hour time difference.

“I’m not concerned about fighting Parker there. I know I’m the underdog, but I had to take advantage of this opportunity. We were supposed to fight November 24th, so I had already waited a long time for a fight like this. At the end of the day it’s just going to be me and him in the ring. I’m going there to win, I see myself knocking him out.”

Parker (24-2, 18 Kos) is coming off back-to-back losses in the United Kingdom, both by way of 12-round unanimous decisions, respektive, tillDillian Whyte and unified world heavyweight championAnthony Joshua. Parker captured the vacant World Boxing Organization (WBO heavyweight world title two years ago, when he took a 12-round majority decision overAndy Ruiz, Jr., followed by unanimous and majority 12-round decisions, respektive, motRazvan Cojanu ochHughie Fury. Ruiz and Fury were undefeated going into their fights with Parker, both ending in majority decisions and shrouded in scoring controversy.

Flores’ lone loss as a professional came 3 ½ years ago against former world champion Charles Martin for the North American Boxing Organization (NABO) titel, in which Flores, who took the fight with only two weeks’ notice, was stopped in the fourth round.

The powerful Flores, fighting out of Rowland Heights, Kalifornien, realizes Parker has never been knocked out as a pro, plus the New Zealander is fighting at home for the first time in 1 ½ år, but he is not deterred from predicting a shocking conclusion.

“He’s going to get a little bit of everything from me,” Flores forcasted. “I’m a boxer-puncher, but I can press the action, or stand and punch. I’m tough to hit, too. It’s not going the distance; I’m not going down, Parker’s going down.”

Chance of a lifetime for heavyweight prospect Alexander “The Great” Flores

Hits road to face former world champion
Joseph Parker
December. 15 in New Zealand

LAS VEGAS (November 20, 2018) – Former World Boxing Organization (WBO Youth World Heavyweight Champion Alexander “The Great” Flores, promoted by Roy Jones, Jr. Boxning (RJJ), has an opportunity of a lifetime December 15, when the gifted 28-year-old Mexican-American travels halfway around the world to take on former world heavyweight titlist Joseph Parker in New Zealand.

Fighting out of Rowland Heights, Kalifornien, the heavy-handed Flores (17-1-1, 15 Kos) is confident as he trains at home to face Parker in his backyard.

“There is no way this fight goes 10 rundor,”Sa Flores. “I’m going to knock him out. A lot of people might not have heard of Alexander ‘The Great’ Flores yet, but they’ll all know who I am after December 15th.”

Flores’ lone loss as a professional came 3 ½ years ago against former world champion Charles Martin for the North American Boxing Association (NABF) crown. Blommor, who took the fight with only two weeks’ notice, was stopped in the fourth round.

“Alexander can dramatically change his life by defeating Parker and we’re confident he can go to New Zealand and pull off an upset,” said Keith Veltre, co-promoter of Roy Jones, Jr. Boxning. “Alexander has power in both hands and he will certainly test Parker’s chin. Flores isn’t going over there just for a paycheck, he’s going to send shockwaves throughout the boxing world.”

An impressive victory against Parker, who has lost his last two fights against unified world champion Anthony Joshua and Dillian White, should propel Flores high in the competitive heavyweight division.

“I’m really glad that Alex is coming to New Zealand full of confidence,” remarked Parker, who is training in Las Vegas. "För mig, boxing is all about the challenge, and this is another big one. I know what is at stake. I need to win and win well. I need to knock him out and I will knock him out, but I can’t focus on that. I need to focus on getting better each and every time I get in the ring.”

Parker has never been knocked out as a pro and he’ll be fighting at home for the first time in 1 ½ år.

“After a five-year undefeated run that took Joe all the way to the WBO World title, we now find ourselves in very unusual territory, coming off back-to-back loses,” Parker’s head trainer Kevin Barry noted. “Joe has never been in this position before and needs a top performance. Joe finds himself under huge pressure to not only win this fight, but to win big and get his career back on track.

“These guys (Parker and Flores) are the same height (6’ 4”) and both pack a serious punch, so it stacks up as a great contest. Detta är en farlig kamp, one that Joseph Parker is fighting for his career.”

Parker, emellertid, may be looking past Flores, according to his recent statements in the media. Först, Parker called out Tony Bellew, who just lost to undisputed, undefeated world cruiserweight champion Oleksandr Usyk, and then the big New Zealander said he’d like to fight the winner of Whyte-Derek Chisora II.

Under tiden, Flores is training like Rocky to make a major statement, one that promises to surprise a lot of boxing fans.
