READING, PA (Márta 18, 2017) – In a 12-round heavyweight war that lived up to the hype, Amir Mansour (23-2-1, 16 Kos) was able to take a majority decision (114-114, 117-111, 115-113) over Travis Kauffman (31-2, 23 Kos) in the main event of Premier Boxing Champions: The Next Round on Bounce from Santander Arena in Reading, PA.

Sa bhabhta dhá, Kauffman buckled Mansour with a hard right on the inside. The two fighters started round four with bad intentions as they each landed hard shots on the inside. Kauffman switched back and forth between orthodox and southpaw stances in an attempt to befuddle the southpaw Mansour.

By the closing rounds, both fighters began to grind out a hard-fought battle on the inside. In rounds nine and 10, it was Mansour who had more pep in his step, landing several hard blows to close out round 10.

Babhta 12 was a classic heavyweight slugfest, as Kauffman and Mansour stood toe-to-toe landing leather on each other for the whole three-minute period, with Mansour doing just enough to get the win.

Televised coverage opened with Chordale Booker (6-0, 3 Kos) Brooklyn, New York getting a unanimous decision (59-55, 59-55, 58-56) over Moshea Aleem (4-1-1, 2 Kos) de Richmond, Virginia in a super welterweight bout.

The co-main event featured two-time welterweight world champion Kermit Cintron (39-5-3, 30 Kos) and David Grayton (15-1-1, 11 Kos) fighting to a technical majority draw after Cintron was deemed unable to continue due to a cut over his right eye.

Sa bhabhta cúig, Grayton floored Cintron with an overhand left. Later in the round, Grayton nailed Cintron with an unintentional headbutt to the right eye, which opened up the cut that led to the end of the bout. Action was stopped at 2:53 de bhabhta cúig.

Here is what the fighters had to say following their bouts:

TRAVIS KAUFFMAN

I got robbed. It’s plain and simple. Bhí sé ag troid mhaith, but I thought I won by three rounds.

He landed a couple of shots, but I clearly outworked him. I thought I landed more and did enough to get the win.

AMIR MANSOUR

They thought I was old and would tire down the stretch, but I am mentally strong.

I give Travis (Kauffman) credit. He stood in there with me tonight. But as I waited for the scores, I knew I won the fight. These were honorable judges.

“Ba mhaith liom (Deontay) Wilder next. I am 44-years-old. I want my shot. They should give me my shot and try to get me out of the way.

KERMIT CINTRON

“Bhí mé ag a bhuaigh an troid. Then he started to apply pressure and he caught me when I was off balance.

He kept coming in with his head, and he finally caught me good with it. I was fine and wanted to continue, but the doctor decided to stop the fight.

DAVID GRAYTON

I won that fight. I think he could have continued.

I was in control of the fight, but I was in his hometown, and you know how that goes.

CHORDALE BOOKER

“Bhí sé ag troid mhaith. I needed this fight to see where I am. And I wanted to fight another undefeated fighter. It was a step up on national television.

I give myself a B- for my performance tonight. My movement was good, but I did not sit down on my power enough. It was a good learning experience though. I could not ask for a better platform to perform on.

MOSHEA ALEEM

I did not do enough. I waited too long to throw my punches and he outworked me.

TRAVIS KAUFFMAN
This is a fight that has been building for a while. There will be fireworks in the ring ar an Aoine oíche.
I accepted this fight because of the caliber of fighter that Amir is. Come fight night, it is going to be a war.
I made a lot of sacrifices for this fight. We have prepared for the best Mansour to show up in the ring. I can’t fall asleep for five seconds in this fight or else I can get stopped. I think that Amir is one of the most feared and avoided heavyweights in the world.
AMIR MANSOUR
I got myself a bottle of anti-aging juice. I’m ready for this fight and excited to give the fans another show.
“Is breá liom dornálaíocht. I don’t fight bums. I love to make sparks fly every time I step in there. Everyone knows what they’re going to see ar an Aoine oíche.
This is a great opportunity for me as I continue my quest for the heavyweight championship of the world. Travis is a tough guy, and he has a scientist in his corner, but it won’t be enough ar an Aoine.
NAAZIM RICHARDSON, Kauffman’s Trainer
Mansour is one worddangerous. He is dangerous at all times.
This is not a comfortable fight. You have to be prepared to deal with a man like Mansour. We put together a plan to negate his attributes.
I am trying to fine tune Travisweapons. The Arreola fight opened eyes, this fight will open doors.

DANNY DAVIS, Mansour’s Trainer

Amir and Travis have sparred each other in the past and those sessions were very exciting and I’m expecting that same type of action in the ring ar an Aoine oíche.

This is going to be a great heavyweight brawl. These styles are going to clash for something great for the fans.

READING, PA (Márta 14, 2017) -Trom Travis “Mo Am” Kauffman (31-1, 23 Kos) has been training hard for his showdown with Amir “Hardcore” Mansour (22-2-1, 16 Kos) that will headline Dornálaíocht Seaimpíní Premier: An Babhta Aghaidh on BounceDé hAoine, Márta 17 from Santander Arena in Reading, PA.

Televised coverage on Bounce begins at 9 p.m. AGUS/6 p.m. PT

Kauffman trained in Houston, Texas with famed trainer Naazim Richardson, and is ready for the hard punching Mansour.

Evertything is great. I was in Houston starting on December 20th and I came home on March 5th,” Dúirt Kauffman.
I have been motivated knowing that I have a killer in front of me. Amir wants what I want, and that is a shot at the Heavyweight title.
Kauffman has sacrificed a whole lot for this fight, as he missed important family moments in order to give himself the best opportunity to put his family in the best situation in the long run.
I missed the holidays with my family. I also missed my sons birthday. I have never done that before. This has motivated me, and gives me such a mental edge and a bigger purpose for this fight.
Being that Kauffman and Mansour (who has trained a majority of his career in Philadelphia) are only geographically separated by an hour, Kauffman knew this fight was bound to happen, and always visualized a fight with Mansour.
I have always been confident that I could beat him. I was down in Texas working hard, and now I am in better shape, but I know when I win it will get me to the next level.

That next level would be a shot at one of the heavyweight champions, and just on February 25th, WBC Heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder took out Gerald Washington in 5 babhtaí, for which many thought the champion showed some flaws, which Kauffman thinks he could exploit more should that match up occur.

I watched the Wilder fight. I did expect Washington to present some problems for him, But Washington doesn’t have the experience. Deontay can punch, but Gerald showed that Deontay can be beat. He showed that Deontay is the most amateurish Heavyweight champion ever, but you have to give the man credit, Tá sé 38-0 le 37 knockouts. He can punch and has a beautiful jab.
But before a fight with Wilder or one of the other beltholders, Kauffman knows he has a tough task in front of him in Mansour.
This fight will put me in the top-five. I just want to win this and fight one of the champions. I don’t care who I fight. I been working so hard in this fight so expect a better Travis Kauffman.

READING, PA (Feabhra 15, 2017) – A showdown between exciting heavyweight contenders Travis “Mo Am” Kauffman (31-1, 23 Kos) agus Amir “Hardcore” Mansour(22-2-1, 16 Kos) headlines action on Dornálaíocht Seaimpíní Premier: An Babhta Aghaidh ar Bounce Dé hAoine, Márta 17 from Santander Arena in Reading, PA.

He is a desperate fighter who knows this is his last chance to retain his spot as a heavyweight contender, so I expect to see the best Amir Mansour. I will be very sharp. I expect a better performance than I had against Chris Arreola.
This is a fight that the heavyweight division needs,” Said Mansour. “This is two top quality facing off against each other.

A local attraction fighting out of Reading, Kauffman is the son of longtime trainer and promoter Marshall Kauffman. Kauffman won his first 18 pro fights and put together a 12-fight winning streak before dropping Chris Arreola in a split decision loss that was later ruled a no decision. Kauffman most recently stopped Josh Gormley in two rounds at the Santander Arena in September of last year and he will return to the arena looking to increase his status in the heavyweight division.
An exciting pressure fighter, the 6-foot-1 slugger Mansour is experienced and primed for an opportunity at the best in the division.

In his next start, Mansour knocked out Kassi in the seventh round. I 2015, he outpointed Joey Dawejko across 10 rounds in May and fought to a draw against unbeaten Gerald Washington in October. His last outing saw him knock down then unbeaten Dominic Breazeale before being forced to withdraw due to an injury.

His only blemishes since 2007 are losses to Timothy Bradley and Paulie Malignaggi at 140-pounds and his title challenge in 2015 against Jose Pedraza in which he dropped a split decision. Cherry, a rugadh i na Bahámaí, owns victories over Vicente Escobedo, Monte Meza Clay and Wes Ferguson and will look to take down another contender on his way to another title shot.
Fighting out of Wilmington, Delaware, Douglas looks to bounce back after losing a narrow decision to former world champion Javier Fortuna in November. The 26-year-old impressed in his previous two outings when he defeated contender Frank De Alba in a step up fight in 2015 and followed it up with a seventh round knockout of Alexei Collado in June 2016. Douglas has had his last five fights in Pennsylvania after an amateur career that saw him become a five-time Pennsylvania Golden Glove champion.
A ionadaíonn do na chathair troid mór de Philadelphia, Cunningham returns to action after an exciting challenge of cruiserweight champion Krzysztof Glowacki in April. Twice a world champion as a cruiserweight, defeated sé Krzysztof Wlodarczyk i 2006 a ghabháil a crios roimh ag cosaint a theidil i gcoinne Marco Huck trí TKO déag-bhabhta. Bhí sé ina curadh domhanda arís i 2010 nuair a stop sé Troy Ross sa chúigiú babhta.

BREAZEALE TO JOSHUA: “LET’S DO THIS!”

Photo c/o of Timothy Hernandez
Upland, California (Aibreán 22, 2016)Nearly three months after an exciting victory in the inaugural Premier Boxing Champions on Fox series, Dominic “Trioblóid” BREAZEALE (17-0, 15 KO s) finds himself sitting on the cusp of a shot at the world title against newly crowned IBF world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (16-0, 16 KO s). What has transpired for Breazeale in the last four months, has been nothing short of the irony in how he has reached this point to possibly fight Joshua; is his fate as he sees it.

Back in December of 2015, Breazeale was scheduled to fight Charles Martin in a battle of undefeated American heavyweights. Martin then withdrew from the bout to preserve a title shot against Vyacheslav Glazkov in which he later won. Breazeale went on to fight heavyweight veteran Amir Mansour a month later and after courageously getting up from the canvas, stopped Mansour on his stool prior to the 6th round.
“Tá a fhios agat, the incident with Martin was really disappointing as we had trained hard for that bout. To show up fight week physically and mentally prepared for the bout and then it’s all of a sudden called off, is just discouraging. But I trusted in my adviser Al Haymon and he put something together for me quickly.
Later the Mansour bout was scheduled and it was a tough fight, but I learned a lot from it. During and after the fight, I realized that I had to use basic fundamentals. He caught me with a good shot but I got off the canvas and started to box him. Only the best of best heavyweights get off the canvas and finish the fight the way I did. Mansour was never stopped before and I clearly showed I have the power needed to stop fighters, and after I broke his jaw, I don’t think he’s ever going to want to fight again,” Said BREAZEALE.
BREAZEALE, was then scheduled to fight Chris Arreola on April 30th and received disappointing news that Arreola had fractured his ankle and could no longer move forward with the bout. “When I first heard about it, I thought to myself not again, and I was upset that another fight was cancelled, but it was a blessing in disguise,” Dúirt BREAZEALE.
Two weeks later, Anthony Joshua would obliterate Charles Martin and claim the IBF world heavyweight title. “Charles Martin got what he deserved and was totally outclassed by Anthony Joshua. Joshua did what he had to do. Martin wasn’t even developed or prepared for the bout. He was soft and slow and you can’t do that in the heavyweight division,” Said BREAZEALE.
BREAZEALE, who is now ranked #13 ag an IBF, is being considered to fight Joshua in his first title defense, and he hopes that he gets a shot at the world heavyweight title and is chosen for the bout. “When I first heard that I was possibly going to fight Joshua for the title I was extremely excited. I have been thinking about this daily. This is an opportunity that every fighter dreams and hopes of. I’m sure Joshua felt the same way when he first found out he was going to fight Martin for the title. The only difference is that I am not going to lay down like Charles did and hand the belt over.
Hey Anthony Joshua! LET’S DO THIS! This a great fight for the heavyweight division and the fans. We are both 2012 Oilimpigh, undefeated, and pack a punch. The United States of America versus Great Britain. I want to go back to London and finish what I didn’t in 2012. Instead of the gold medal, I want the IBF title, and I guarantee you I’m bringing it back to the United States where it belongs!,” Said BREAZEALE.

Dominic “Dtrioblóid” BREAZEALE READY TO SHAKE UP HEAVYWEIGHT DIVISION

Upland, California (Feabhra 24, 2016)The supremacy of the heavyweight division is uncertain at this point in time as a handful of contenders are waiting for their turn to be called on to challenge three current world heavyweight champions for their respective titles. Three new champions within the past year has brought excitement back to a division that was ruled by the Klitchscko brothers for the past decade. The division

is ripe for the picking and one particular heavyweight contender is ready to shake it up.

Breazeale was triumphant in an exciting heavyweight match up against heavyweight veteran Amir Mansour. Everything that led up to that bout was challenging for Breazeale as he had to deal with fight dates and opponents being changed and the sudden tragic

loss of his mother a few weeks before the fight. Regardless of the adversity, Breazeale chose not to postpone the fight and decided to go through with it.

Everything leading up to the fight with Mansour was tough on me mentally. I had to deal with a lot before the fight, but hey that’s part of life and also part of being in this business. I am thankful that I have a supportive wife and family that helped me through one of the toughest times in my life. But I am a fighter and fighting is what I do to support my family, so the obvious choice was to to go through with the fight,” Dúirt BREAZEALE.
Breazeale’s last fight with Mansour was by far his toughest opponent to date and he showed a lot of guts and heart by picking himself off the canvas in the third round and later stopping his opponent after the fifth round. He entered the ring as a prospect and later that night left the ring as a legitimate heavyweight contender and the newly crowned WBC Continental Americas heavyweight champion. BREAZEALE, atá anois 17-0 le 15 KO’s finds himself in a position where he can be fighting for a world title within the year.
The bout with Mansour was a bout that I will remember and learn a great deal from. My trainer and I knew that he was going to come in swinging and he did that for the first few rounds, but his punches were not that strong. Granted he knocked me down, but he caught me with a good shot I didn’t see coming. After the knockdown, I started to box him and landed some powerful shots and I know I hurt him at times but I couldn’t close in on him as I would have liked. Fortunately for him, he decided not to come out in the sixth round and I think that was a good idea on his part as I would have stopped him soon thereafter.
This last bout showed that I

Photo c/o Suzanne Teresa, PBC

am a contender and that I belong here. I have fought tougher opposition than all the current world champions did when they had their first 17 fights and I know I’m ready to challenge any one of them right now. Every bout I have had, I have learned from and I continue to learn everyday in the gym with my trainer Manny Robles. I’m ready for whatever my adviser Al Haymon has next for me and I always tell him I want to fight the best,” Dúirt BREAZEALE.

After taking some well deserved time off after a tough fight, Breazeale is back in the gym preparing for his next bout. Breazeale is also busy in the planning stages of hosting his very own “1st Annual Trouble Boxing Camp”. This free event is scheduled to take place later next month and Breazeale is excited to be able to return the favor by giving back to the kids in the local communities of the Los Angeles area.
It has always been a passion of mine to work with kids and I am truly honored to be hosting my first event which is going to be called the “1st Annual Trouble Boxing Camp”. The free event will consists of young kids and teens coming out to the gym for the day, where they will learn the basic fundamentals of boxing and how to live a healthy lifestyle. The participants will also hear motivational speeches from special guests which will consist of professional boxers, trainers and local community leaders. It’s going to be a great event and I’m happy and blessed that I am able to give back.

I was throwing my combinations, using my legs like my dad told me to do. I knew he was going to come to fight. He’s a rugged warrior. I’m back where I belong. I am now a two-division world champion.
Guerrero is tough. No one has ever stopped him. Tháinig sé chun troid; he was in shape. I’m taking nothing away from him. I am glad it went the way it went. I just want to take some time off, let my body heal and take one day at a time.
Father/trainer Angel Garcia Dúirt, “I thought it was a good fight. There were a lot of head butts. He is a dirty fighter. Ag deireadh an lae, Danny pulled it off, it doesn’t matter what people say.
I knew Robert was going to be at 100. It was a world title fight. Anytime it is a world title fight, no one is going to slouch. When you come to fight a former champion or champion, it’s going to be a battle. These are elite fighters and there is always going to be a great fight.
Stated a disappointed Guerrero, “I want a rematch and that’s it. Not one person out there thought Danny won, but his team. I pressured him, I nailed him, busted his body up. I
out-jabbed him.
I thought I won the fight. The crowd thought I won the fight. Bhí sé ag troid iontach. I am happy I’m healthy. Beidh mé ar ais.
It’s all for the fans. That’s why they bring me back. They love it and they enjoy it. They were entertained tonight. They thought I won the fight.
Continued Robert’s father and trainer Ruben Guerrero, “”I know we won it. He kept running and holding, running and holding. How are you going to win a fight when you run and hold every time?
We wanted to win every round and I think we won every round. Ba mhaith liom a rematch. That wasn’t fair. I want a rematch as soon as possible.
Punch stats showed Garcia with a wide margin of power shots landed, 33 percent to Guerrero’s 24 faoin gcéad.
In a 10-round welterweight battle, “Sáirsint” Sammy Vasquez of Monessen, Pennsylvania improved to (21-0, 15 Kos) with a sixth round stoppage of Aron Martinez, (20-5, 4 Kos) of Michoacan, Mexico.
Peppering Martinez with a piston like jab, Vasquez controlled the action using his full skillset to
score points at will against the slower Martinez. Staying the aggressor through round four and five, Vasquez continued to beat Martinez to the punch using a battering right hook.
The bout ended abruptly as Martinez was not able to continue following the sixth round due
to a left elbow injury.
Said Vasquez, “Of course I won the fight, but Martinez is a tough competitor, a tough Mexican fighter. I tried to mix it up with him a little bit, but there was no sense in me trying to do that. I could have easily outboxed him, which I started to do, but I wanted more. I was just starting to warm up.
A victory feels good of course, but I wanted more. I wanted to go 12 babhtaí, if it would have lasted that long. I wanted a very decisive win. Ar an drochuair, he got hurt, but every fight is a learning experience for me.
It’s on to the next chapter and I’m ready for all of the guys at the top. Faoi dheireadh, I’m going to get them.
A disappointed Martinez stated, “I hurt my elbow. I couldn’t throw my jab. I started to feel it in the third round. The doctor stopped it.
I was doing okay. Not my best. I tried, but once I hurt my elbow, I knew it was going to be tough to continue.
Opening the telecast was an outstanding heavyweight back and forth brawl between
2012 U.S. Cluichí Oilimpeacha Dominic “Trioblóid” BREAZEALE, (17-0, 15 Kos) de Glendale, California and Amir “Hardcore” Mansour, (22-2-1, 16 Kos), de Philadelphia.
From the first bell it was readily apparent that both big men would throw bombs throughout
with Mansour in particular throwing caution to the wind.
Swinging wildly Mansour dropped Breazeale early in the third stanza, badly shaking the former
college football quarterback.
Mar sin féin, Breazeale confidently kept his composure, fighting his way back in the fourth. With Mansour apparently running out of gas in the fifth round Breazeale went to work, drilling the
muscular southpaw with battering uppercuts and hooks on the inside.
Following the fifth round, Mansour bit through his tongue and cited a jaw injury (which was not broken) and could not continue as the valiant Breazeale was awarded the well-earned victory.
Said a happy Breazeale, “I didn’t know what happened. Usually when they wave off a fight, it’s over. Shows I have punching power after all.
I’ve been on the canvas before. I just had my hand in the wrong place. I knew I could get back up. Tá mé i gcruth mór. It happens to the best of us.
I’m a fighter at heart and I wanted to just get in there and brawl, but I new I had to stick to the game plan and box him.
