Şərh yaz
MIAMI (Oktyabr 26, 2016) — Beynəlxalq səviyyədə tanınmış boks məşqçisi Orlando Cuellar tam dövrə gəldi, sağa yenidən məşhura 5ci St. South Beach-də idman zalı, burada bir dəfə öyrənmək üçün bir yeniyetmə kimi ziyarət etdiyi və indi həftədə altı gündən döyüşçülər hazırlayır.
Havanada anadan olub, Cuba, Cuellar ailəsi, üç məktəbli olduğu zaman Orlando ilə birlikdə orta məktəbi keçərək Mayamidə məskunlaşdı. Həvəskar boksçu kimi, Cuellar boksçuları izlədiyini açıqca xatırlayır 5ci St. Kimi idman zalı Cassius Clay, Willie Pastrano, Vinnie Qısa və Florentino Fernandez, kimi əfsanəvi məşqçilər də var, qardaşları Angelo və Chris Dundee.
“İzlədim və öyrəndim, bacardığım qədər yığırdım,” Cuellar bildirib. “Indi, Mən özüm çalışıram tapmaq 5ci St. Son altı həftədir idman salonu. İnanılmaz bir təcrübə oldu. Hər gün, heç vaxt oradakı qapılardan kimin keçəcəyini bilmirsən. Bu, dünyanın ən yaxşı boks idman salonlarından biridir 50 il. Keçən günlərdən Məhəmməd Əli, döyüşçüləri zəngin tarixi və böyük sparringu səbəbiylə bu idman salonuna cəlb edildi, eləcə də South Beach restoranları olan ərazidə, klublar və çimərlik. İsti, rütubətli hava döyüşçülərin arıqlamağı və məşq etmələrini asanlaşdırır.
“(Sahib) Dino Spencer üzərində aparır 5ci St. İdman zalı ənənəsi. Hər gün mənim üçün həyəcanlıdır. Qarışıq etnik qruplar orada məşq edir və istedad üçün bir maqnitdir. Həftədə üç gün sparring var – Mən bunu Spar-a-rama adlandırıram – hər kəsin özlərini sınamaq üçün xoş gəlmisiniz. Sparring çox televiziya döyüşlərindən daha yaxşıdır.
“5ci St. İdman zalı məşqçisi Guy Laieta məni son beş ildə komandaya qoşulmağıma inandırmağa çalışırdı. I spoke to Dino on several occasions, expressing my desire to train fighters out of the 5ci St. Idman zalı. Onun sözlərinə görə,, ‘Let’s do it.’ The success of the 5ci St. Gym today has a lot to do with ownership. Dino has a passion for boxing and he is very hospitable, which trickles down to his staff and fighters. Good vibes all of the time!”
Cuellar left for Las Vegas in 1976 və, after he realized that being a boxer wasn’t in his best interest, he started training fighters there in 1981 out of Johnny Garcia’s Gym. A year later, he shifted his base Brooklyn and started training fighters out of another boxing icon, GLEASON nin Gym. Ilə 2000, he resettled in Miami.
Best known as world light heavyweight champion the head trainer of Glen Johnson, Cuellar also worked with future champions such as Nicolas Walters, Rances Barthelemy və Erslandy Lara, eləcə də Luis Franco, Aaron Davis və Juan Carlos Gomez, to name a few of the more notables. Hazırda, he’s the chief second for several top fighters including Antonio Tarver.
Recognized throughout boxing as a superior teacher, Cuellar’s success is mostly attributed to his training of fighters on an individual basis, focusing on their personal needs rather than giving all fighters the same instructions and attention.
“Each fighter needs personal and specific work to complement their God-given talents,” Cuellar explained. “You can’t teach all fighters the same way. I specialize on what I call old school meets new school. Old school was upfront and personal to go 15 el, new school is about throwing more punches, more foot movement and fighting from the outside. I teach doffense: defense + offense. Punches aren’t vitamins, none should be taken. Boxing is little more than a battle of reflexes; one fighters versus another, but the real trick is how the fighter uses his reflexes. I teach my fighters how to turn the ring apron into a minefield.”
Boxing has played a huge role in Cuellar’s life. Back in the 5ci St. Gym is just another chapter in his unique life.
“I live through my fighters,” Cuellar concluded. “Every victory is my proudest moment. There are no big or little victories, every win is a happy moment because of all the hard work and sacrifices me and my fighter made during training camp.”
Orlando Cuellar is thrilled to have gone back to the future.

MIAMI BEACH (İyun 8, 2015) – The new 5ci St. Gym is carrying on the rich boxing history established there in 1950 by the famed Dundee brothers, Chris and Angelo.

 

Known throughout boxing as the world’s most famous gym, 5ci St. Gym became a major attraction for boxers, international celebrities and tourists alike, originally due to presence of a rising star training there, Cassius Clay, kim, əlbəttə, went on to become The Greatest, Məhəmməd Əli.

 

Hall of Famers and future inductees have trained at 5ci St. Gym over the years, including Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, Carmen Basilio, Archie Moore, Willie Pep, Roberto Duran, Lennox Lewis, Şüa “Boom Boom” Mancini, Mike Tyson, Bernard Hopkins, Roy Jones, Jr. and so many other ring greats.

 

Others who have been part of the 5ci St. Gym experience are actor Matt Damon and comedian Dave Chappelle, in addition to elite athletes such as Cleveland Cavaliers superstar Lebron James, Green Bay Packers future Hall-of-Famer Julius Peppers and former UFC great George St. Pierre. 5ci St. Gym’s history also includes legendary celebrities such as Frank Sinatra, Sean Connery, Jackie Gleason.

 

5ci St. Gym fell on hard times at one point but a revitalization started in 2009, thanks to new owners Tom Tsatas and Dino Spencer, who re-opened the gym at its original location on 5ci and Washington in Miami Beach.

 

Ilə 2013, 5ci St. Gym moved from its original location of 63 il, fasilələrlə, when CVS took over the property and forced the gym to move to its present location at nearby 1434 Alton Road.

 

“We’re slowly getting back,” Spencer explained. “We’ve only been reopened since 2010 and in our new location since 2013. We have new people – təlimçilər, manager and fighters – and offer unique opportunities for up-and-coming professional boxers. You can’t catch passes from Tom Brady but boxers can train here every day with champions and contenders. There are also ultra-successful people here who can teach boxers about how to be successful outside the ring. We’re creating an environment at 5ci St. Gym to give young boxers every opportunity to succeed.

 

“Wildcard Gym (Los Angeles) is the No. 1 spot today but, on this side of the country, fighters from all over the world are coming here to train. Brian Jennings trained here for his fight with (Wladimir) Klitschko, Manual Charr trained here for his last fight, Anthony and Andre Dirrell have trained here, (Sergey) Kovalev, çox. They get elite sparring here for their training camps. Some come here with their coach, others have me train them.

 

“A lot of boxing managers are here every day like John Seip and Charr’s manager was hanging out here, çox. Faktiki olaraq, he’s interested in signing a fighter he saw at our gym. People from Warriors Gym are here a lot looking for young talent. These people can make a difference in a young fighter’s life. Fighters are getting exposure here before they ever get to fight on TV. We also have great weather and all the amenities of South Beach. It’s only a matter of time before we’re back on top at No. 1.”

 

Times have changed and today the heart and soul of 5ci St. Gym beats strong once again with world-class boxers training alongside supermodels Adriana Lima, Alessandra and Nina Adgal, as well as Grammy winner Cedric Gervais, just to name a few of the more notable non-boxer members working out there on a regular basis.

 

Bir daha, 5ci St. Gym is the training mecca for world champions, top contenders and promising prospects. Faktiki olaraq, Seip discovered gifted Italian boxer Daniele Marco Scardina at 5ci St. Gym and signed him to a professional contract.

 

Newly-crowned International Boxing Federation (IBF) super middleweight champion James DeGale, pictured here with 5ci St. Gym owner Dino Spencer, trained at 5ciSt. Gym for his recent title-winning performance against Andre Dirrell, who has also trained at 5ci St. Gym in the past, Boston. DeGale sparred with the gym’s top amateur southpaw, Niko Valdes, to prepare for Dirrell. DeGale won a unanimous 12-round decision over Dirrell to become the first Olympic gold medalist from Great Britain to capture a major world title as a professional boxer.

 

“Four years ago,” Seip izah, “I moved my managerial company to Miami from New York City. It had become very difficult to find solid sparring in New York City, where boxing gyms were closing due to the demand for high rents. The 5th St Gym has grown back into a big time professional boxing gym. I house all my fighters in Miami and they all train exclusively at 5th St. Gym for boxing and conditioning. There are pros who fly in from other countries to prepare there for fights. The atmosphere is incredible and professional boxers, heavyweights to featherweights, spar there three or four days a week. Gəlin bu üzləşirlər, sparring is like a classroom and it’s pivotal for pros to prepare and learn. The teachers at 5ci St. Idman zalı — Dino Spencer, Guy Laieta and Louis Perez – are all top rated. It’s also a fun place to hang my hat. You cannot beat Miami weather for training, either.”
