MIAMI (Bulan Oktober 26, 2016) — Pelatih tinju yang terkenal secara internasional Orlando Cuellar telah menjadi lingkaran penuh, kembali ke yang terkenal 5th St. Gym di South Beach, tempat dia pernah mengunjunginya saat remaja untuk belajar dan sekarang melatih para pejuang dari enam hari seminggu.
Lahir di Havana, Kuba, Keluarga Cuellar bermukim kembali di Miami ketika dia berusia tiga tahun dengan Orlando yang tinggal di sana sampai sekolah menengah. Sebagai petinju amatir, Cuellar masih ingat dengan jelas saat menonton petinju di 5th St. Gym seperti Cassius Clay, Willie Pastrano, Vinnie Short dan Florentino Fernandez, serta pelatih legendaris, kakak beradik Angelo dan Chris Dundee.
“Saya menyaksikan dan belajar, mengambil sebanyak yang saya bisa,” Cuellar mengatakan. “Saat Ini, Saya menemukan diri saya bekerja dari 5th St. Gym selama enam minggu terakhir. Sungguh pengalaman yang luar biasa. Setiap hari, Anda tidak pernah tahu siapa yang akan berjalan melewati pintu di sana. Itu telah menjadi salah satu sasana tinju terbaik di dunia selama lebih dari 50 tahun. Dari hari-hari kembali ke Muhammad Ali, petarung tertarik ke gym ini karena sejarahnya yang kaya dan perdebatan yang hebat, serta ke area dengan restoran South Beach, klub dan pantai. Hangat, Cuaca yang lembab juga memudahkan para petarung untuk menurunkan berat badan saat berlari dan berlatih.
“(Pemilik) Dino Spencer sedang menjalankan 5th St. Tradisi gym. Setiap hari saya berada di sana menyenangkan bagi saya. Kelompok etnis campuran berlatih di sana dan itu adalah magnet bagi bakat. Ada perdebatan tiga hari seminggu – Saya menyebutnya Spar-a-rama – dan semua orang dipersilakan untuk menantang diri mereka sendiri. Perdebatan ini lebih baik daripada banyak pertarungan TV.
“5th St. Pelatih gym Guy Laieta telah berusaha meyakinkan saya untuk bergabung dengan tim selama lima tahun terakhir. Saya berbicara dengan Dino beberapa kali, mengekspresikan keinginan saya untuk melatih petarung keluar dari 5th St. Ruang olahraga. Dia mengatakan, 'Ayo lakukan.’ Keberhasilan dari 5th St. Gym saat ini banyak hubungannya dengan kepemilikan. Dino memiliki hasrat untuk bertinju dan dia sangat ramah, yang menetes ke staf dan pejuangnya. Getaran yang bagus sepanjang waktu!”
Cuellar berangkat ke Las Vegas masuk 1976 dan, setelah dia menyadari bahwa menjadi petinju bukanlah kepentingan terbaiknya, dia mulai melatih pejuang di sana 1981 keluar dari Gym Johnny Garcia. Setahun kemudian, dia memindahkan markasnya di Brooklyn dan mulai melatih petarung dari ikon tinju lain, Gleason Gym. Di 2000, dia bermukim kembali di Miami.
Dikenal sebagai juara dunia kelas berat ringan pelatih kepala Glen Johnson, Cuellar juga bekerja dengan juara masa depan seperti Nicolas Walters, Rances Barthelemy dan Erslandy Lara, sebaik Luis Franco, Aaron Davis dan Juan Carlos Gomez, untuk menyebutkan beberapa dari yang lebih terkenal. Hari Ini, dia adalah pemimpin kedua untuk beberapa petarung teratas termasuk Antonio Tarver.
Diakui di seluruh tinju sebagai guru yang unggul, Keberhasilan Cuellar sebagian besar dikaitkan dengan pelatihan petarung secara individu, berfokus pada kebutuhan pribadi mereka daripada memberikan instruksi dan perhatian yang sama kepada semua petarung.
“Setiap pejuang membutuhkan pekerjaan pribadi dan spesifik untuk melengkapi bakat yang diberikan Tuhan,” Cuellar menjelaskan. “Anda tidak bisa mengajar semua pejuang dengan cara yang sama. Saya mengkhususkan diri pada apa yang saya sebut sekolah lama bertemu sekolah baru. Sekolah tua bersifat terbuka dan pribadi untuk dikunjungi 15 putaran, sekolah baru adalah tentang melakukan lebih banyak pukulan, lebih banyak gerakan kaki dan pertarungan dari luar. Saya mengajar doffense: pertahanan + pelanggaran. Pukulan bukanlah vitamin, tidak ada yang harus diambil. Tinju lebih dari sekadar pertarungan refleks; satu pejuang versus pejuang lainnya, tetapi trik sebenarnya adalah bagaimana petarung menggunakan refleksnya. Saya mengajari pejuang saya cara mengubah celemek cincin menjadi ladang ranjau.”
Tinju telah memainkan peran besar dalam kehidupan Cuellar. Kembali ke 5th St. Gym hanyalah bagian lain dalam hidupnya yang unik.
“Saya hidup melalui pejuang saya,” Cuellar menyimpulkan. “Setiap kemenangan adalah momen yang paling saya banggakan. Tidak ada kemenangan besar atau kecil, setiap kemenangan adalah momen yang membahagiakan karena semua kerja keras dan pengorbanan yang saya dan pejuang saya lakukan selama kamp pelatihan.”
Orlando Cuellar sangat senang bisa kembali ke masa depan.

PANTAI MIAMI (Bulan Juni 8, 2015) – The new 5th 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, 5th 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, siapa, tentu saja, went on to become The Greatest, Muhammad Ali.

 

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

 

Others who have been part of the 5th 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. 5th St. Gym’s history also includes legendary celebrities such as Frank Sinatra, Sean Connery, Jackie Gleason.

 

5th 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 5th and Washington in Miami Beach.

 

Di 2013, 5th St. Gym moved from its original location of 63 tahun, Mati dan hidup, 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 – pelatih, 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 5th 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, terlalu. 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, terlalu. Faktanya, 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 5th 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.

 

Sekali lagi, 5th St. Gym is the training mecca for world champions, top contenders and promising prospects. Faktanya, Seip discovered gifted Italian boxer Daniele Marco Scardina at 5th St. Gym and signed him to a professional contract.

 

Newly-crowned International Boxing Federation (IBF) super middleweight champion James DeGale, pictured here with 5th St. Gym owner Dino Spencer, trained at 5thSt. Gym for his recent title-winning performance against Andre Dirrell, who has also trained at 5th St. Gym in the past, di 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 menjelaskan, “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. Mari kita hadapi itu, sparring is like a classroom and it’s pivotal for pros to prepare and learn. The teachers at 5th St. Ruang olahraga — 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.”
