“NEW ENGLAND EXPLOSION” OFFICIAL RESULTS

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (Desember 13, 2019) — Rising Connecticut starsRICHIE “POPEYE THE SAILOR MAN” RIVERA en“ACTION“ ANTHONY LAUREANO both remained undefeated with impressive performance tonight on a solid “New England Explosion” card in front of an enthusiastic crowd at MassMutual Center in Springfield, Massachusetts.

“New England Explosion,” presented byJOE DEGUARDIA SE STER BOKS, sponsored by MGM Springfield, aired live in a first for New England Sports Network (NESN), and streamed worldwide (excluding N.E.) opwww.FITE.TV.

Heavy-handed Rivera (nou 16-0, 12 Uitklophoue) took his power up to the cruiserweight division against “MIGHTY” JOE JONES(nou 11-2, 8 Uitklophoue), who unexplainably kept his hands very low, as “Popeye” pounded him to the head and body in the main event. Rivera hit Jones with everything but the kitchen sink, in what looked like batting practice at times, although “Popeye” failed to register a stoppage for only the third time in 16 pro fights. .

It was a rough, physical fight that got chippy early with both fighters exchanging trash talk and showboating. Rivera, who hails from Hartford, pressed the action throughout the fight against a defensive Jones, who switched to a peep-a-boo style in the later rounds.

“I’m strong to the finish because I eat my spinach….toot, toot! My coach kept telling me to relax but, eerlik, I was putting on a show. More or less, I was acting,” Rivera talked about the roughhousing. “He was tough. My team said to box. The plan wasn’t to go for a knockout. I threw some big shots just to let him know.

“I’m so happy to have had my seventh fight this year. I’ve been active and I’m undefeated. I try to put on a show for the fans and be a role model.”

In die mede-hoofren, Laureano (nou 13-0, 4 Uitklophoue), 'n 2016 New England Golden Gloves champion from nearby East Hartford, CT., defeated Texas super lightweightANGEL “AZTEC WARRIOR” HERNANDEZ (17-14-2, 11 Uitklophoue) in a toe-to-toe battle from the opening . This TV-friendly fight could have been fought in a proverbial phone booth. Laureano, as usual, was relentless in his attack, systematically breaking down his opponent with strong body work of his own, as well as seemingly landing uppercuts and left hooks at will.

Laureano took control in the second and never let up against a game Hernandez, wat, like Laureano, never stopped throwing punches. Eventually, Laureano won an 8-round unanimous decision in a wildly entertaining, highly competitive clash.

“It was beautiful,” Laureano commented. “I like wars, my trainers don’t. I let my emotions take over. It was a beautiful fight, al, all action and the people loved it. But I fought his fight. I did adapt and showed some of my boxing ability at some points.

“He’s experienced and came in confident. He kept coming; hy is taai. This will build me into a better fighter. I did a lot of good things. The goal is to learn from every fight, Ek sal, and we’ll go back to the drawing board.”

Danbury, CT super liggewigOMAR “THE BEAST” BORDOY (nou 10-1, 3 Uitklophoue) opened the NESN broadcast with a masterful display of boxing, winning all eight rounds on each of the three judges’ scorecards for an 8-round unanimous decision against late replacementDIEUMERCI ”ELEPHANT MAN” NZAU (nou 11-11, 8 Uitklophoue). 

Bordoy effectively and consistently beat Nzau to the punch, moved well inside the ropes, and never put himself in dire straits. “It felt good,” Bordoy said after the fight. “The game plan was to out-box him, use my job, and not take any unnecessary chances. I followed the game plan and came out with an easy victory.

“I knew he had some power and he caught me with a good punch early. I watched some tape of him and listened to my trainers. I want to get back in the ring as soon as possible.”

In a battle of welterweight southpaws, tuisdorp gunstelingDERRICK “BAD BOY” WHITLEY II (6-1-1) suffered a cut over his right eye from an accidental headbutt byJERMAINE CORLEY (3-8, 1 KO) during the second round. The ringside physician halted the action after two rounds and the fight, by rule, was a “no decision.”

In die opening bout van die aand, Hartford welterweight prospectJEFFREY TORRES(nou 6-0, 4 Uitklophoue) het sy onoorwonne rekord ongeskonde, pitching a shutout for a 6-round unanimous decision over Brockton, MA journeymanANTONIO CHAVES FERNANDEZ(nou 9-40-4, 3 Uitklophoue).   Torres out-boxed Fernandez, who was buzzed several times, van begin tot einde.

Brasiliaanse lig swaargewigLEANDRO “BUSCAPE” SILVA (2-3, 1 KO) ruined the homecoming for local fighterANGEL ‘ THE BLACK RICAN” VAZQUEZ (0-2) In the walk-out bout, Silva trapped Vazquez on the ropes in the fourth round. Vazquez suffered a standing eight count, but the referee halted the action, and awarded Silva a win by technical knockout.

KALI REIS -AANTEKENINGE EN FOTO'S UIT DIE MEDIA -OEFENING VANDAG

Skryf 'n opmerking
REIS KOM TERUG NA DIE RING HIERDIE Saterdag BY MOHEGAN SUN
PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island (Junie 26, 2018) – Voor haar geveg hierdie Saterdagaand in Mohegan Sun Arena, driemalige wêreldkampioen Tyd “KO Mequinonoag” reis het vandag 'n oop media -oefensessie by die Big Six Academy in Providence gehou, Rhode Island.

 

 

 

Veg uit die nabygeleë Cranston, RI, reis (13-7-1, 4 Uitklophoue) sal die voormalige uitdager van die wêreldtitel in die gesig staar Patty “Die Elegante” Ramirez (11-5, 5 Uitklophoue), van Mexiko, in 'n agt-ronde welterweight bout.

 

 

 

Reis vs.. Ramirez is die hoofrol op die “SLUGFEES BY DIE SON” kaart, aangebied deur JOE DEGUARDIA SE STER BOKS, by Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut.

 

 

 

Reis kom verlede maand uit 'n historiese stryd teen die onbetwiste wêreldkampioen in weltergewig en die koningin van 4 pond, 33-0 Cecilia Braekhus, in die eerste vrouestryd ooit op HBO. Reis laat Braekhus vir die eerste keer in haar professionele loopbaan val, die beoordelaars het egter die stryd ten gunste van Braekhus aangeteken, oor ruckus boo’s uit die skare.

 

 

 

In die belangrikste gebeurtenis, na elf maande uit die ring as gevolg van 'n gebreekte kakebeen, die “Gewone mens”, Union Local 66 arbeider, Joe Smith Jr. keer terug by die pragtige Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. Na 'n uitstekende KO -oorwinning op NBC teen Andrzej Fonfara, en die legende uitslaan, Bernard Hopkins, uit die ring verwyder, op HBO, Smith Jr. het sy oë daarop gerig om 'n wêreldtitel te wen. Smith Jr. word tans gegradeer #3 (WBC) en #7 (WBA) in die wêreld.

 

AANHALINGS EN FOTO'S UIT DIE MEDIA -OEFENING VANDAG:

 

 

 

 

“Ek is so opgewonde om weer by die huis te baklei, veral na ons geskiedenis op HBO. Ek het teen Cecilia Braekhus geveg. Ons was die eerste vroue wat ooit op HBO baklei het en daar was meer as 'n miljoen kykers. As ek geweet het dat baie mense sou kyk, Ek sou baie meer senuweeagtig gewees het.”

 

 

 

“Op papier, dit was 'n verlies, maar dit was regtig 'n wen-wen vir my, en vroueboks. Dit het al baie deure vir my oopgemaak. Daar was soveel groei vir my en vir vroue se boks. Dit gaan die deur oopmaak vir ander vroue om op netwerke te veg. Dit was 'n opgang in die boks van vroue, nie net vir een geleentheid nie, maar vir ewig.”

 

 

 

“Ek is die eerste vroulike inheemse Amerikaner wat in New England baklei het.”

 

 

 

“Ek het baklei 18 jaar. Ek het op hoërskool basketbal en vlugbal gespeel, maar ek hou van boks.”
 

 

 

“Ek het in my laaste stryd gewys dat ek by die elite behoort. Ek wil 'n herhaling kry (met Braekhus).”

 

 

 

“Om 'n padkryger te wees, Ek is bekend om weg te veg of tuis, maar dit is gemakliker om hier tuis te veg. My tuisdorp is altyd baie ondersteunend.”

 

 

 

“(Saterdag) Ek gaan met 'n oorwinning uitkom. My opponent is langer, maar ek moet net die spelplan volg en uitvoer.”

REIS VAN RHODE -EILAND KOM TERUG VIR HAAR DERDE BOUT BY MOHEGAN SUN
LAUREANO VAN CONNECTICUT RETURNS VIR SY TWEEDE BOUT BY MOHEGAN SUN

Uncasville, Conn. (JUNIE 25, 2018) –Met 30 Junie wat vinnig nader kom, die hype vir STAR BOX'S “SLUGFEST by die SON” gaan voort om te bou, aangesien twee van die voorste vegters op die kaart hul tuiskoms in New England sal maak. In die samewerking, TYD “KO MEQUINONOAG” REIS (13-7-1 4KO se) van die Voorsienigheid, Rhode Island sal haar derde verskyning by Mohegan Sun teen VYFDE “DIE ELEGANT” RAMIREZ (11-5 5KO se). Dit dra by tot die opwinding, Connecticut se eie “AKSIE” ANTHONY LAUREANO (7-0 3KO se) van East Hartford sal terugkeer huis toe by Mohegan Sun in sy stryd teen JUAN de la CRUZ RODRIGUEZ (8-9-1 6KO se).

 

 

 

Die inheemse vegter van Rhode Island, Kali Reis, is geen vreemdeling vir helder ligte en druk nie. Met 'n indrukwekkende vertoning op HBO teen onbetwiste kampioen en #1 pond-vir-pond vroulike vegter ter wêreld, Cecilia Braekhus, Reis kyk terug huis toe, terug na New England en het haar volle krygsgees by die Mohegan Sun uitgestal.

 

 

 

As sy kommentaar lewer oor haar komende geveg, Reis het dit te sê gehad, “Aanhangers kan verwag om 'n nog meer vasberade te sien, geskoolde, honger, ontwikkelende WARRIOR daarbinne! Die geveg op HBO met Braekhus was so 'n leerervaring en ek is dankbaar dat ek nie net geskiedenis gemaak het nie, maar ook oor my eie persoonlike reis.”

 

 

 

Die laaste keer dat Reis by Mohegan Sun geveg het, was in November verlede jaar. Sy is opgewonde om hierdie tuiskoms te maak.

 

 

 

“Ek is opgewonde om terug by die huis te wees’ by Mohegan Sun 30 Junie,” sê die inwoner van Rhode Island. “Star Boxing het altyd aksiebelaaide gevegte wat hierdie pragtige gebied verlig. My aanhangers hou daarvan om na Mohegan Sun te kom. Daar is nie 'n slegte sitplek in die huis nie en hul gasvryheid is fantasties. Joe DeGuardia hou my baie produktief sedert ons in November met hom onderteken het. Ek is so bly oor die besluit wat ek en bestuurder Brian geneem het om by hulle te onderteken.”

 

 

 

Nog 'n plaaslike vegter op die kaart om te kyk, is Anthony Laureano. Laureano het die bynaam gekry “Aksie” vir sy meedoënlose, vorentoe vegstyl. As die boorling van East Hartford in die ring is, aanhangers kan altyd 'n opwindende vertoning van begin tot einde verwag. Star Box's “Slugfest by die son” bring altyd vuurwerke na Connecticut, en Laureano wil die tradisie voortsit met sy tuiskoms by Mohegan Sun.

 

 

 

Laureano is gevra wat hy aan die ondersteuners by Mohegan Sun sal bied, en sy reaksie was eenvoudig, “Dieselfde ding wat hulle altyd sien, aksie. Aksie, dit is dit. Die mense kom om geld te betaal en hulle gaan kry waarvoor hulle betaal het. Selfs in my laaste geveg, mense het gekry waarvoor hulle betaal het. Hulle het aksie kom sien en iemand na vore kom kom. Hulle wil niemand sien ronddans nie. Ek sê nie dat die styl sleg is nie, Ek kan dit ook doen, maar mense hou van twee ouens wat na vore kom en wil baklei. Ek is daardie vegter. Ek is die vegter wat altyd wil veg.”

 

 

 

Hierdie wedstryd teen Rodriguez is die derde keer in sy loopbaan dat Laureano by Mohegan Sun veg.

 

 

 

By navraag oor die lokaal, dit is wat Laureano te sê gehad het, “Ek is lief vir Mohegan…Mohegan is my tuiste. Daar is geen plek soos dit nie. Ek is mal oor die ring, alles is net so mooi. Die atmosfeer, die skare, my tuisdorp is daar, en as hulle daar is, is dit hard…Mohegan is my tuiste, geen twyfel. Die casino behandel my goed, en as ek daarheen gaan, voel ek dat dit is waar ek hoort. Ek het dit nog nooit elders gevoel nie.

 

 

 

In die belangrikste gebeurtenis van “SLUGFEST by die SON” op 30 Junie, JOE SMITH JR. sal sy lang verwagte terugkeer na die ring teen die moeilike Kentuckian maak, MELVIN RUSSELL. Na elf maande uit die ring as gevolg van 'n gebreekte kakebeen, die “Gewone mens”, Union Local 66 arbeider, Joe Smith Jr. keer terug by die pragtige Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. Na 'n uitstekende KO -oorwinning op NBC teen Andrzej Fonfara, en die legende uitslaan, Bernard Hopkins, uit die ring verwyder, op HBO, Smith Jr. het sy oë daarop gerig om 'n wêreldtitel te wen. Smith Jr. word tans gegradeer #3 (WBC) en #7 (WBA) in die wêreld.

10 Questions with up and coming Junior Welterweight prospect “Aksie” Anthony Laureano

Anthony “Aksie” Laureano

7-0 (3)

Ouderdom 23

Oos-Hartford, CT

140 lbs/Junior Welterweight

2016 Western New England and New England Golden Gloves 152 pound champion

2016 National Golden Gloves Semi-Finalist

Trainer: Angel Gonzalez

Bestuurder: Nate Torres

Promotor: Joe DeGuardia/Star Boxing

 

 

 

Anthony Laureano is a 23 year old rising prospect in the boxing game today. An extremely hard working and focused young man, Laureano is a throwback type of fighter. He put the hard work in each and every day, strives to learn the finer points of the game and approaches each fight like a Do Or Die event.

 

 

 

Thus far Anthony and his team have chosen a unique path to success in the boxing world. They have not shied away from tough competition thus far and, in die feit dat, have had to dig down and overcome several very stiff challenges from eager opposition. Laureano’s last two opponents in particular, Tobias Green (7-1) and John Hernandez (8-2), both provided extremely tough challenges in bouts that forced “Aksie” Anthony to dig down to places that most up and comers simply aren’t forced to go until quite a bit later in their careers.

 

 

 

Both performances drew rave reviews from fans and media alike and compelled me to conduct this interview with one of the best professional prospects the Hartford-area has seen in many years.

 

 

 

Humble, clean living, fearless, hard-working and as fan friendly and approachable as they come, onoorwonne (7-0) Anthony Laureano is definitely one to root for.

 

 

 

The following is a 10 question interview in advance of his June 30 bout at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut against Juan Rodriguez (8-9-1) of Haymarket, Virginia on Star Boxing show that features contender Joe Smith Jr. in the main event against Melvin Russel in a light heavyweight match up.

 

“10 Questions With “Aksie” Anthony Laureano”

 

 

 

QUESTION 1. How did you originally get started as a boxer?

 

 

LAUREANO: My father put me in boxing. He wanted us to stay active and in shape. I originally started boxing at age 8 met (former lightweight contender) Pito Cardona. We used to follow him everywhere he went to teach us some techniques. I started competing at age 11 of 12 in a garage. Where the ropes were sheet rock walls. The ring floor was a rug and in the winter time you’d better bundle up. I would go to the gym in all types of weather. Snow, rain and heat waves. I didn’t care, I would just go on my bike. Right after school I would get my big bag ready and get my bike ready to ride.

 

 

QUESTION 2. What are your goals as a fighter? What do you want to do in this game?

 

 

LAUREANO: My goal as a fighter is to become champion of the world. It would be an achievement that I could share with the people. In this game I want to show that no matter how hard it is at first you still can accomplish big things. With hard work, dedication and will power anything is possible. I want to put God first. I want to give people hope.

 

 

QUESTION 3. In your opinion what was the highlight of your amateur boxing career?

 

 

LAUREANO: The highlight of my amateur career was my first fight with my trainer Angel Gonzales. This fight changed everything. I felt had the talent, but I was coming from a back to back losing streak. This fight was a close one. I was just getting ready to lose because when it was close I never got the decision. Angel yelled at me “What;s wrong with you? You don’t do this in sparring. You better show me something!!!” I went out that round and gave the kid two standing 8 counts in the 3rd round. This fight was the turning point of my career. This made everything possible.

QUESTION 4: So far you’ve faced several tough opponents for someone with only a few fights yourself under your belt. And as long as I have known you its been very obvious that you are not shy about stepping in with the tougher competition. Where do you think that comes from? Where did you develop this mindset?

 

LAUREANO: The reason that I’m not shy about taking on competition is because I have faith God. I failed a lot in the amateurs so I know what it is to lose. Every time I lost one of my amateur fights I went right back at it the next day. Natuurlik, I felt like I shouldn’t be in the gym. I even felt embarrassed to go to the gym. I wanted to be something in the sport of boxing, al, so I didn’t care what other people thought. The reason I’m willing to take on better competition is to prove to myself and get better as a fighter.

 

QUESTION 5: How did you begin working with your trainer, (1986 Goue handskoene in New England 106 pound champion) Angel Gonzalez, and what is the training like?

 

LAUREANO: Angel Gonzalez was always around me. He would do little group exercises and I’d jump in sometimes. I eventually got to work with him when I was looking for a new trainer. I even thought about doing Muay Thai, but I still had a love for boxing. So I went back to boxing and started training with Angel. Angel gave me discipline in the sport and that was something I needed. After my first pro fight, Angel spoke to Nate Torres and ask him to help him train me. Nate accepted and now is my manager and co-trainer. The professional game is different and we must continue to improve my skill set in order to continue my success as a professional boxer.

 

I have a great team now. Truly blessed!

 

 

 

QUESTION 6: Were u a boxing fan growing up or are you one now? Who did you grow up watching in the sport and who are your favorite boxers?

 

 

 

LAUREANO: My favorite boxers of course are the fighters who take risk and keep coming forward. I look up to Mickey Ward and Arturo Gatti wars. Growing up I just really loved doing boxing. It’s really an art form. There is Lomachenko, he shows that it’s sometimes just a master in his angles. I see fights of his to learn new things that I like. Adrian Boner when he is on his game boxing is really nice to see. Natuurlik, people really down play him but, if you take all the drama and leave it to the side, he is really something to see when he has it together.

 

 

 

QUESTION 7. Do you have anyone in the sport who you try and emulate as a fighter? What boxers influenced your style as a professional fighter?

 

 

 

LAUREANO: My style is like Ward and Gatti in terms of heart and will to win. My trainers say my style resembles Miguel Cotto at 140. Similar left hook to body and boxing style. Miguel is a warrior with no quit in him and I’d like for people to see that in me, ook..

 

 

 

I also really like Mikey Garcia today because he is a complete fighter. He takes on big challenges. Can adjust to any situation. He has such good speed and power. Even after a two year layoff he still came back so strong.

 

QUESTION 8. What is the best thing about being a professional boxer?

 

 

 

LAUREANO: For me the best thing about being a pro is I’m doing what I love. Using the gifts that God gave me to honor him. Also the opportunity it creates to provide a better life for my family.

 

 

 

Vraag 9: So far what has been the toughest part of being a professional fighter for you?

 

LAUREANO: I would say the toughest part about being a professional fighter is just managing life and training. Right now I’m in the come up. So it’s tough I would love to work but, then I would lack in training. It’s managing the people around you some support and some don’t. So you really just got to stay with positive people that support. Your mindset is everything so if your failing to manage your emotions it will hit hard when you got a fight coming up.

 

 

 

QUESTION 10. At this point in your career you are still working your way up, fighting on undercards in preliminary bouts. Spots often open up on these smaller cards on short notice. How long would you need to get ready for a fight if called for one?

 

 

 

LAUREANO: I’m always ready for a fight because I don’t take any time off from the gym. I do my cardio at a fitness club then I do my boxing later on in the day. Always.

Former UFC heavyweight title challenger Gabriel “Napao” Gonzaga Victorious in pro boxing debut

Skryf 'n opmerking
“NEW ENGLAND’S FUTURE 4” RESULTATE

 

Gabriel Gonzaga (R) won his pro boxing debut
WORCESTER, Mass. (Oktober 29, 2017) – Former UFC heavyweight title challenger Gabriel “Napao” Gonzaga has a successful pro boxing debut last night (Saterdag, Oktober. 28) in the co-featured event on the “New England’s Future 4” kaart, aangebied deur Rivera Promotions Vermaak (RPE), at DCU Center, Exhibition Hall, in Worcester.
Die 6′ 2″, 280-pound Brazilian, now fighting out of Worcester (MA), fought another pro-debut boxer with limited MMA experience, Alejandro Esquilin Santiago, van Tampa (FL). Gonzaga stalked the southpaw Santiago, landing some hard shots in the opening round. The heavy-handed Gonzaga picked up the pace in the third and his upset-minded opponent responded in a positive fashion. Both fighters exchanged freely in the fourth and final round, neither was hurt during the contest, and Gonzaga was awarded a win by four-round majority decision.
“I thought I’d be more relaxed in the ring like I had been in the gym,” Gonzaga said. “I did my best and came away with a victory. I was too safe in the third round. My punches were much strong and a lot of his punches I blocked with my gloves. This was really great! vanaand”

Gonzaga (L) defeated Santiago
“I felt good and gave it my all,” Santiago remarked. “He hit me with some shots and gave ’em back. Not only does he have a big nose (“Napao”), he has a strong, big head, ook.”
In die belangrikste gebeurtenis, popular Hartford (CT) lig swaargewig Richard “Popeye Die Matroos Man” Rivera gebly onoorwonne, improving his record to 4-0 (3 Uitklophoue), with a first-round knockout of an over-matched Hansen Castillo (0-3)
Rivera, not relations to the promoter, first dropped Castillo with a beautifully placed left uppercut and finished the show moments later with a left hook that sent Castillo flying to canvas. Skeidsregter Kevin Hope didn’t bother to count.
“My coaches were telling me to be calm because it was a six-round bout,” Rivera verduidelik. “I saw that he had his left down and caught him with an uppercut. I’m strong to the finish because I eat my spinach.”
New Haven junior middleweight Edwin Sosa (11-2-2, 4 Uitklophoue) overcame at 15-pound disadvantage, at the very least, en route to a dominant six-round unanimous decision over Anthony “The Animal” Everett (1-7), of Rowley (MA).
Danbury (CT) junior weltergewig Omar Bordoy, Jr. (3-0, 1 KO) stopped New York veteran Bryan “die Brick” Abraham (6-31, 6 Uitklophoue) in the fourth and final round. Abraham was decked twice and after counting to 10 after Abraham’s second time on the canvas, skeidsregter Paul Casey waved off the action.
Three-time national amateur champion Elvis “Chi Chi” Figueroa (3-0, 1 KO), fighting out of New Haven, pitched a complete shutout over a game, pro-debut Rene Nazare(0-1), van Brasilië, for a convincing win by way of a four-round unanimous decision.
South brug (MA) weltergewig Wilfredo “die Sucaro” heidense (3-0, 1 KO) pinnedPatrick Leal (0-4), van Woburn, on the ropes early, dropping him three times until referee Casey halted the fight midway through the opening round.
