CORONA, Calif. (Noiembrie. 4, 2016) - Tares “The Real Deal Shelestyuk maintained an unbeaten record and continued his ascent in the welterweight division with a close, unanimous 10-round decision over his toughest opponent to date, Jimmy “The Truth” Herrera în Vineri main event of a ShoBox: Noua generatie tripleheader trăiesc pe ARATĂ TIMPUL from the outdoor Omega Produse Event Center în Corona, Calif.

 

Shelestyuk (15-0, 9 KO), the 2012 Olympic Games Bronze Medalist for Ukraine, was victorious by the scores of 96-93 de două ori și 95-94. Despite a gutsy, gritty performance, Herrera (15-4-1, 8 KO), din Chicago, Ill., had a three-fight winning streak end. There were no knockdowns.

 

In a rough and tumble, bloody collision of undefeated cruiserweights in the co-feature, stangaci Constantin Bejenaru (12-0, 4 KO, 0-1-1 în World Series of Boxing), Catskill, N.Y.. prin Moldova, survived a knockdown and several unintentional head butts to register a unanimous 10-round decision over Steve Bujaj (16-1-1, 11 KO), de New York.

 

Fan favorit locale Manuel “La Tormenta” Mendez (13-1-2, 9 KO), de Indio, Calif., registered an impressive one-punch, 2:32 first round knockout over previously undefeated Jones Vitor Freitas (12-1, 1 ND, 6 KO), din Salvador, Bahia, Brazilia, in a scheduled eight-round bout that opened the telecast.

 

Southpaw Shelestyuk, who entered the ring ranked No. 9 in the WBO and No. 13 în WBA, turned back a determined bid by Herrera to win despite getting docked a point for excessive holding in the fifth round.

 

„A fost o luptă dură,’’ Shelestyuk. “He is a tough fighter, he is slow but he worked well. În primul tur de scrutin, I did well but my legs went on me. I think it was because I did not sleep well.

 

“After five rounds I started to find my rhythm. I started boxing him. I made some mistakes in there like pulling straight back. This fight will make me better. Cum am spus, he was tough but nothing special. When my legs went, I started to work inside. I beat him good in the last round and if there was 30 seconds more, I could have stopped him.

 

“I am looking forward to being more active in 2017. I will take two or three weeks off and be right back in the gym.’’

 

“The Truth” hurts and Herrera had more than his fair share of moments in a tight fight. Herrera, un profesionist din decembrie 2009, figured to be a legitimate test for Shelestyuk and he was. But Taras was more active (aterizare 169 de 689 pumni, compared to Herrera’s 130 de 460). Each connected 28 sută din timp.

 

Herrera, who had defeated undefeated prospects in four of previous nine fights, was not happy with the verdict. “It was a good fight. There is not much that I can say. I thought it was closer than the scores indicated. I had fun in there and I give him credit. He was everything I expected. He is a smart fighter.’’

 

“I would live to be a test dummy for all these young prospects. I thought it could have been a draw, but the people who saw it on TV can have their opinion.’’

 

Making his second ShoBox start, Bejenaru triumphed by the scores of 97-91 on the three judges’ scorecards. The lefthander went down from a clean, counter left hook to the chin in the fifth and got the worse of the unintentional head butts but appeared to outhustle and outfight a reluctant Bujaj most of the way.

 

A short cruiserweight with an awkward, herky-jerky style Bejenaru pressed the issue throughout and was much more active, throwing more than 100 more punches than Bujaj (454-336) and averaged 45 punches thrown per round compared to 38 for Bujaj.

 

“He’s a dirty fighter,’’ said Bejenaru after a match in which he suffered a bad cut over his left eye and a big welt on his overhead. “You look at all his fights, all he does is lead with his head. I was affected by his head butts but there was no way I was going to stop. He complains a lot, but all he did was foul. It felt to me like he bit me on the left ear after… that’s how he fights.

 

“The sport is boxing, not swimming and he flails his punches like a swimmer, a street fighter, not a pro fighter. He caught me with a clean shot on the knockdown but I got right up and wasn’t hurt.

 

“This win is a big step in my career. It will help me continue to rise me up in the rankings on my way to a title shot.’’

 

Bhujj, who was making his ShoBox debut, was livid afterward.

 

“Hell, Da, I’m mad,", A spus el. “The scoring was bad. I knew what I was getting into by fighting in his backyard, but I definitely thought I won. I knocked him down. He never hurt me.”

 

The aggressive-minded Mendez came out patiently and allowed Freitas to throw the majority of the early punches. Mendez’ first meaningful punch of the fight was a paralyzing left hook to the body that put Freitas down and writhing in pain.

 

“I was surprised he didn’t take that body shot well, said Mendez, is who is trained by Joel Diaz. “I knew I hurt him, but I thought he’d get up. I saw that he wasn’t covering up very well so I knew I was going to land one eventually.”

 

“I was surprisingly nervous going into this fight. I was somewhat timid to start. I usually come out stronger, but it didn’t matter because we got the result that we wanted.”

 

“I’m pumped for the knockout win. I know it didn’t last long, but I hope the TV audience enjoyed it.”

 

Freitas controlled most of the round with his movement and sharper punching, but a savage hook to the body — his third connect to the body — left the Brazilian on the canvas long after the 10 count.

 

“I messed up,’’ a tearful Jones Freitas said. “I paused at the wrong time and he hit me with the right punch. This means nothing to me. I’m going to keep working hard and training hard. Vreau o revanșă.”

CITATE FINALE:

TARAS SHELESTYUK

 

“Herrera is a good fighter, a tough fighter. I know he has defeated some good fighters like Mike Jones, who was a top fighter who’d been off a couple years. But I’m 100 la sută gata. I expect a very tough and exciting fight but I expect to be much stronger and smarter.

 

“I’m excited for all the attention this fight and I are getting. I’ve always known that fans in America have known me but maybe now more than before. I think in the next year, I can become even more well-known.

 

“I’ve been working on strength and becoming more powerful. I think my boxing skills are already good, but my speed and power are better than before. I feel in sparring that I’m punching harder.

 

“I like to work the body. I like the fact you land enough of them early, they take a toll late. That’s one thing good about fighting as a pro. I feel good about my career; I hope to be fighting some of the best fighters in the division within a year.

 

“I’m sure Herrera will probably try and come at me; there’s no chance he can beat me at boxing. I like guys who come forward. They are good for me because I can counter and move side to side. And I’m ready to fight on the inside if necessary.

 

“I know I can improve on my last ShoBox luptă. I made it closer than it should have been. If we had it over again I think I maybe stop him just because of what we’re been working on in the gym.

 

“Sparring with Shane Mosley has been huge for me. He’s such a great fighter. When I was younger, I’d watch his fights. Now we spar. He’s older but still very good. He knows all the tricks and gives me a lot of advice that helps me in and out of the ring. Everything he’s said to me, I’ve tried to apply.”

 

JIMMY HERRERA:

“I’ve been working a full two months for this fight so I’m ready. This is going to be a very good test for both of us, a great fight. He’s a good European boxer, another unbeaten for me. But I don’t feel like I’m coming in as the underdog at all. He’s got his strengths, I’ve got my strengths.

 

“There has to be a purpose for every punch. Each has to count. If he opens up and makes a mistake, I have to take advantage. I need to get him out of his rhythm early, force him out of his comfort zone and make him fight my fight.

 

“I’ll be the aggressor. But I’d love if he was the aggressor. I just think, deși, knowing him, he’s going to try to box and win the rounds that way. I work all the time coming forward and that’s what I’ll do mâine.

 

“A kid from Chicago, like me, it’s hard to get anywhere in boxing without connections, so finally after fighting so long without a manager, I signed with Cameron Dunkin. I always knew I could be a good boxer, but never figured I’d be a boxer. But look at me know, I’m fighting on SHOWTIME and this fight couldn’t be coming along at a better time.”

 

CONSTANTIN BEJENARU:

“I feel your amateur career gives you a good foundation, like a beginner, but once you turn pro it’s a total different game. It doesn’t matter who has more experience as an amateur. As professionals, we all have to do our jobs here.

 

“I don’t know Bujaj, but I saw his fight with Junior Wright so I know he is tough.

 

“I feel this is a big step for me. E 16-0, a good fighter who can punch or box, and this is for a belt. This a good fight for both of us.

“I work hard for every fight and this was no exception. We know we have to pay attention to detail. This is a dangerous guy but I am very confident.

 

“I definitely don’t expect an easy fight. I have to press the action. I need to make him as uncomfortable as I can.

 

“I don’t have a lot of pro knockouts but boxing isn’t just about power. Boxing is intelligence and mental; it’s not just a street fight for me.

 

“This is my second fight on ShoBox. I’m so happy to be back again after that last win over Zubov. The goal is to keep busy, come back early next year and then sometime by next year be ready to fight for a major title of some type.’’

 

STEVE BUJAJ:

 

“I’m looking forward to this fight, my first on network TV, to see where I’m at. Modul în care mă simt, I’ve got everything to win, everything to lose. This either pushes me to the next level, or I stay where I’m at.

 

“I’m ready for any kind of fight. I’m a versatile fighter and I will have the height advantage.

 

“I feel ready now for the bigger fights, the additional exposure on SHOWTIME, the ratings, the titles, totul. But I definitely will be even more after Vineri.

 

“I don’t feel this is going 10 runde. I feel I’ll break him down and eventually stop him. I feel I’ve got the skills and definitely the heart. I’m healthy and ready to go.

 

“I saw his last fight on ShoBox, and thought it was pretty decent. He’s pretty short for a cruiserweight. Although we’re both from New York, I’d never heard of him before.

 

“Camp went awesome with lots of sparring. In Las Vegas. I trained with Mayweather fighters like Ronald Gavril, Badou Jack and Caleb Plant. It’s been four years since I’ve fought a left-hander but I do not consider it factor.’’

 

VITOR JONES FREITAS:

“I thank God and both my uncles for helping me get to where I am, for teaching me and for guiding me in every step of my life and in boxing. Without their influence and what they’ve done for me since I was 11, I feel I’d be dead today.

 

“I’m very excited about this fight and the opportunity to fight better guys. This for me is all about taking advantage of the opportunity.

 

“I’m getting more and more experience. My goal is to work hard and, like my Uncle Acelino, make good fights and become a world champion“

 

“We’ve studied Mendez’ fighting style and have a lot of respect for his trainer, Joel Diaz. I know Mendez is very strong and comes forward. I don’t know if he likes it when his opponents attack from the sides but I’m ready to fight him on the sides, head-on and toe-to-toe.”

 

MANUEL MENDEZ:

 

“This is my ninth fight with Joel and we know each other very well. Through the bad and good, he’s been there for me.

 

“I’m sure Freitas has confidence in his ability but like any other undefeated fighter he does well until he hits the wall, which is what Joel wants me to make him do. He wants me to punish him, take my time.

 

“I feel have I have natural power, can take a punch and have heart. Hit me as much as you want, but watch out once I connect and turn things around. My goal always is to break them down, starting with the body.

 

“I may not have the pedigree of some of these guys, but I’m learning defense, how to pace myself, staying poised and most importantly, just how to fight. The more experience, the more mature you become.

 

"Mâine I just want to be me and listen to Joel in the corner. I wouldn’t want to be standing in from of me. If he wants to stand and bang, hai să o facem. I guarantee he’s the one going back after the first few moments.”

PENTRU DIFUZARE
CORONA, Calif. (Noiembrie. 2, 2016) — Undefeated ultra-confident cruiserweight Steve “Supraom” Bhujj (16-0-1, 11 KO), of Westchester, N.Y., chimes in before his important 10-round bout with fellow unbeaten Constantin Bejenaru (11-0, 3 KO, 0-1-1 in the World Series of Boxing), Brooklyn, N.Y., in the middle match of a ShoBox: The New Generation tripleheader this Vineri, Noiembrie. 4, from the Omega Products Event Center in Corona, Calif.
Bhujj (pronunțat “Boo-ha”), 26, has won four in a row, inclusiv ultimul doi de knock-out, since boxing a split 10-round draw in a slugfest with then-undefeated three-time Chicago Golden Gloves champion Junior Wright (10-0) in mai 2014. A two-time New York Golden Gloves champion, Bujah, who’ll be fighting on ShoBox the first time, is coming off a first-round TKO over previously undefeated Sergio Ramirez (11-0) pe Iunie 11

Bejenaru (pronunțat “bay-zhin-nah-ROO”) is making his second ShoBox start. In his debut last Aprilie 15, the native of Ungheni, Moldova, scored a unanimous eight-round decision over previously unbeaten Alexey Zubov (10-0), un fost campion de amatori rusă și șapte ori campion european amatori. Southpaw Bejenaru boxed on the Romanian national team for 10 ani și a fost un campion național de nouă timp.

Here is What Bujaj said:

What do you know about Bejenaru and what are your thoughts going in?

“I know he’s undefeated, 11-0 and a lefty, but I don’t believe he’s on my level. I think I’m a different class fighter and will be able to show it vineri.”

What kind of fight do you expect?

“I don’t really have any expectations. When I get in there, I make my adjustments, and then I start breaking him down.”

What is the key to winning? What are your advantages?

“My best advantage is my experience. I’ve fought 10 etape înainte. This is his first time. I believe that I’m more skilled than he is, and I believe that I have more heart and just think I have the edge all around.”

On fighting on ShoBox the first time?

“I’m very excited and grateful for the opportunity that has been given me. I’m ready to go out and perform and show the world what I’m all about — and that is being one of the top guys in the cruiserweight division.”

Your opinion on the cruiserweight division?

“The cruiserweight division is a good division with a lot of good fighters. I feel like it will get more exposure in the future because there are so many talented fighters and good fights that can happen. I’m looking forward to being a part some of the big fights and making some noise.”

What would a win on ShoBox mean to you?

“A win on SHOWTIME would be really huge, but mostly it would keep me going.”

Are they making a mistake fighting you?

“I don’t think he made a mistake, but I refuse to lose this fight. I’m gonna give it my all. He’s not on my level and I’m gonna prove it. I’m gonna fight my ass off.”

On his slugfest with former world title challenger Wright?
“I was winning the fight but I broke my jaw in the fourth round. I had a bad mouthpiece, a cheap one. I never knew mouthpieces needed to be fitted. The surgeon told me if I’d had a pro mouthpiece, I wouldn’t have had a problem.
“I still believe anybody else would have quit in that fight. I was in a lot of pain, I couldn’t close my mouth because the jaw was broke, I was spitting out blood. But I hung in there despite the jaw.

“I had him out on his feet in the last half-minute or so but the referee stopped the fight to give him time to tape up one of the laces on his glove. That gave him time to recover. If the ref hadn’t stopped it when he did, I feel I would have knocked him out.”

On his career?

“I had to work hard for my career. I don’t have a padded record. I do not have it as easy as most in their career. I don’t have a big-time promoter, and I’m not pampered. I’ve fought tough guys throughout my career but I’ve learned a lot and have no regrets. But I feel it’s time for me to step up. After I win Vineri pe ShoBox, a lot of doors should start opening up me.”
New Nickname?

“I’ve been known as ‘Superman’my whole career but I’m thinking of changing it to “Steel.” The Wright fight proved a lot of me, and I learned a lot. Nu am renuntat. I’m very tough and strong-minded, made of ‘steel.'”
Bujaj vs. Bejenaru is scheduled for 10 rounds and will be part of a ShoBox: The New Generation tripleheader live on SHOWTIME at 10:30 p.m. ȘI/PT (întârziat pe Coasta de Vest).

(On your first time fighting in front of a nationally televised audience) ...

“Este o mare oportunitate. I always push myself to the limits and this fight is no different. I have a fan-friendly style that the SHOWTIME audience is going to love.”

(On paper your fight against Freitas appears evenly matched, but most are giving the upper hand to your opponent) …

“I’ve always been the underdog all my life so this is another shot to prove myself. Freitas has a famous name, but that’s about it. He hasn’t faced anyone that approaches my ability.”

(On what you expect from Freitas) …

“The first few rounds will go a long way in knowing what he has. From watching tape, it seems like he has speed, but the most important thing is gauging his power. I can take a punch so once I feel him connect with something, then I’ll know what he has to offer.”

(On your relationship with Joel Diaz) …

“We have an excellent relationship. He’s incredibly helpful in that I’ve seen a great deal of improvement since I’ve been with him. Everything is better. My conditioning, head movement, jocul; I’ve improved in a lot of areas. He’s a great teacher.”

(How would you describe your style for those that have yet to see you fight?) ...

“I’m a smart boxer that pressures fighters into making mistakes. I have all the tools needed to wear down opponents. You’ll always see me in front of you to the point where you get annoyed and start making mental errors. That’s when I put the hurt on you.”

Chicago Welterweight Looks to Defeat Another Unbeaten Boxer When He Faces Taras Shelestyuk in Main Event Of ShoBox: Noua generație Tripleheader, Acest vineri, Noiembrie. 4, Live on SHOWTIME®

Lasă un comentariu
NEW YORK (Noiembrie. 1, 2016) – Jimmy “Adevărul” Herrera is accustomed to entering the ring as an underdog. The Chicago native is experienced in fighting favored prospects and contenders on the road and has had an inordinate success in these types of matchups, having defeated unbeaten prospects in four of his last nine fights.

So don’t expect Herrera (15-3-1, 8 KO) to be in awe of his opponent, former Ukraine amateur standout and rising star, Taras Shelestyuk (14-0, 9 KO) when they meet this Vineri, Noiembrie. 4, in the 10-round welterweight main event on ShoBox: Noua generatietrăi pe SHOWTIME® (10:30 p.m. ȘI/PT, întârziat pe Coasta de Vest) la Omega Products Event Center în Coroană, Calif.

The 5-foot-10, 27-year-old Herrera has won three in a row and is 8-1-1 since dropping a close eight-round decision to Adrian Granados în februarie 2012. One of those victories was an upset seventh-round TKO over one-time highly ranked welterweight and world title challenger Mike “Mitralieră” Jones on Aug. 23, 2014.

Herrera is promoted by Hitz Boxing and co-managed by Cameron Dunkin and Mike Cericola.

Here are Herrera’s responses to a recent Q&A:

What are your thoughts going into your ShoBox debut?
“Sunt mereu pentru o provocare, so I’m really excited about this opportunity. I’m definitely ready to compete against another undefeated fighter. I’m coming to show my skills to the world and prove I’m a boxer you have to pay attention to.

“At this point of my career, I want to make a move fast while I’m young. I don’t just want to be a guy with a nice record. I truly believe in my skills and that I can reach the highest level.

“I’ve been getting great help with sparring with the best of the best in Chicago. Sam Colonna, George Hernandez and all the Chicago boxing coaches have been great mentors to me and I am very thankful.”

What do you know about Shelestyuk?
“He was a great amateur fighter and he’s a lefty. That’s pretty much all I need to know. The only thing I can give him is that he has experience, so I’ve got to be careful of that. But it’s nothing new – I’ve seen fighters like that.”

What kind of fight do you expect?
“I expect him to be a boxer with movement. I think he’ll try to box me. I’ll be coming forward, being aggressive. Apoi, we’ll see what his game plan is.”

What is the key to winning?
“It all depends on the pressure I can apply, throwing the right punches at the right time, the accuracy of my punches. Each punch has to have a purpose. I’m definitely more of a pressure guy. I like Gennady Golovkin’s style, Julio Cesar Chavez is my idol. That is the kind of style I try to fight with.”

On fighting on ShoBox for the first time?
“I’m definitely excited because I know a lot of people will be watching. Nu sunt nervos deloc. The cameras, the bright lights, sincer, I don’t care about. My focus is totally on this fight. This is the type of fight that can open a lot of doors for me.”

Is this your biggest fight and do you feel pressure?
“Da, categoric, this is my biggest fight — just for all the doors a win would open for me, all the possibilities. Nu e nici o presiune asupra mea. He’s the one representing his country with the weight on his shoulders. I’ve lost before, but that doesn’t make me an opponent.”

Are they making a mistake fighting you??
“I feel like they are making a mistake, but I also feel this is going to be a good test for him. I think Taras took the fight more for himself. But if he doesn’t know now about me, he’s going to find out.”

You boxed amateurs for one year and had 25 capete. El a fost un 2012 Olympic Bronze Medalist with a boatload of amateur accomplishments. How significant is the experience of fighting amateur?
“Personal, mie, the amateurs are not that important at all. It’s all irrelevant once you go pro. I know some great amateur boxers who made it after turning pro, and some who didn’t. It’s a whole different ballgame. As a pro, I believe I’ve fought better guys than he has. I’ve been tested way more than he has. You can’t take away what he did as an amateur, but fighting with the smaller gloves, with no headgear, is totally different.”

Undefeated cruiserweights Constantin Bejenaru (11-0, 4 KO, 0-1-1 în World Series of Boxing), Catskill, N.Y.. prin Moldova, și Steve “Supraom” Bhujj (16-0-1, 11 KO), de New York, will collide in a 10-rounder for the vacant WBC International WBC Continental Americas titles in the co-feature.

NEW YORK (Octombrie. 31, 2016) – Promising unbeaten 2012 Jocurile Olimpice de bronz Medalist Taras "Real Deal" Shelestyuk (14-0, 9 KO) will make his main event debut when he faces upset-minded Jimmy Herrera in the 10-round featured attraction of a ShoBox: Noua generatie tripleheader this Fridași, Noiembrie. 4, trăi pe ARATĂ TIMPUL la 10:30 p.m. ȘI/PT (întârziat pe Coasta de Vest) de la Omega Produse Centrul Internațional Eveniment în Corona, Calif.

 

A 5-foot-10 up-and-coming rising star, Shelestyuk, de Los Angeles, is ranked No. 9 de WBO și nr. 13 în WBA. Shelestyuk, who is making his second ShoBox start, medie 85 punches a round en route to winning his ShoBox debut with a 10-round division over Aslanbek Kozak pe Nov. 6, 2015.

 

The dedicated, hard-working Shelestyuk, care este antrenat de Eric Brown and spars a few days a week with former world champion Shane Mosley, at Wild Card West in Santa Monica, Calif., posedă competențe solide, circulație și perforare putere.

 

Shelestyuk was a member of a vaunted 2012 Echipa olimpică din Ucraina care a inclus medaliat cu aur pană Vasyl Lomachenko și medaliat cu aur la categoria grea Oleksandr Usyk. The 30-year-old feels he’s still about a year away from competing against the best at 147 pounds and that he first must get by Herrera. But Mosley claims Shelestyuk reminds him of a bigger Lomachencko and believes he’s already ready for the top names in the welterweight division.

 

Herrera (15-3-1, 8 KO), din Chicago, Ill., a învins perspective neinvinsi in patru din ultimele nouă lupte și este 8-1-1 în general din iulie 2012.

 

Shelestyuk, Brown and Mosley spoke to SHOWTIME after a recent workout. Here’s what they said:

 

TARAS SHELESTYUK:

What are your thoughts going into the fight?
“I’m very excited. It’s been six months since my last fight. It’s my first headline fight and hopefully not my last one.

 

“I’ve been putting in a lot of work in my training camp with my trainer Eric Brown, and with my physical conditioning coach. My opponent is a tough fighter. He’s had some good fights with guys like Mike Jones, Egidijus Kavaliauskas and a couple of other big guys. He likes to fight and I think it will be a good fight and a good matchup for our styles.”

 

You’re now a ranked fighter; are you happy with the pace of your progression?

“I’m happy with my progression but of course I want to fight bigger names in championship fights and all of that. I know it’s coming soon. I enjoy my way of training and developing my skills, but if you see your dream you do anything to reach it and don’t let anything get in your way.’’

 

What do you think of the welterweight division?

“It’s a very good division because there are a lot of fighters, but some don’t want to fight each other (very often). There are some very good championship fights to be made and hopefully I will be one of them.”

 

Why did you chose to move to Southern California?

"Bine, [râde] mainly because if the great weather, but this is also a good area with a lot of good fighters and a lot of good trainers as well. When I first moved here my manager invited me out and showed me around and I got in the gym right away. I was training with Ruslan Provodnikov and got some sparring in with him before a fight that he had and next thing you know, two weeks later I had my pro debut and now three-and-a-half years later here I am.’’

 

Is there pressure on you when you fight?

“I wouldn’t say I feel pressure because everyone around me is supporting me, they believe in me and I believe in them. My team believes in me and I trust them. I just want to do what I do in the ring, mai bine. I want to do better for me, for my family and for my friends.’’

 

Do you follow your Olympic teammates?

“I watch fights of the Ukrainian Olympic Team, and I enjoy when the other guys win. We support each other and we call each other. It is good for there to be more Ukraine fighters who are champions now. Anul viitor, I hope to be one of them.”

 

How did it feel going 10 runde pentru prima dată?

“Last year in November I had my first 10-round fight on ShoBox, I fought with a strong guy and he gave me a very good fight. I went the 10 rounds and I felt like I could still go two more. I am ready for 10, pentru 12, nu contează. I feel much better, much more powerful. I have more speed than I had in my last fight, too.”

 

How did you end up training with Eric?

“I trained with Freddie Roach for about two and a half years when I met Eric at Wild Card West Gym. I started sparring with some of his guys there. After my fight with Rodriguez on ESPN in 2015 I asked Eric to train me and we started working. Now that I’ve fought two fights with him as my trainer, I feel my boxing skills are better, I feel more powerful and I enjoy training in his gym.

 

“All of the trainers help us and they give us advice. On the days I spar with Shane Mosley he stops and gives me some advice. I learn a lot from him, being the fighting legend that he is. I grew up watching him fight as a kid and respect what he’s able to teach me. Then the next time I try what he has taught me and it works.”

 

Boxing is in your blood; your dad and brother boxed. When you were younger, did you think you were going to become a fighter?

"Nu Face, but my father pushed me in a lot of sports. I did gymnastics, soccer for five years, and played chess. I fought as a kid but it was always friendly. I always enjoyed the training aspect. To train for soccer sometimes my father and I would run barefoot in the snow and I enjoyed it. Așa, as a kid, when I first stepped into the boxing gym, it was just so much fun.’’

Your ShoBox fight falls on your father’s birthday; do you have a special present in mind for him?

“It makes me want to get the victory for him. On his day, he will be sitting and watching my fight so I want to get that victory for him, for my family and for the Ukraine.’’

 

ERIC BROWN, Shelestyuk’s trainer

What kind of camp has Taras had has had and what do you see happening vineri?

“I see a lot of progression in Taras. When we first started working together, one of the things was that Taras always had great boxing ability, but he wasn’t a great finisher. I don’t know if he was gun shy or what it was but he had a tendency of using his talent to get people in trouble but then he would stand back and let them get back in the fight. Așa, what we’ve been working on a lot more is getting him to become a better finisher and recognize when he has his man in trouble and how to seize the moment, without being reckless at the same time. He’s improving at a fast pace.

 

“A lot of guys from Ukraine seem to have similar tendencies because they have long amateur careers and they start picking up bad habits that we need to correct. Taras had a little bit of that in him but he seems to be making the adjustments very well. He’s an extremely hard worker and you often have to tell him to slow down, you never have to tell him to do more.”

 

Where do you see him in his career as a welterweight?

“It’s a great division. I’d say that Keith Thurman tops it without a doubt now but there are good fighters like Shawn Porter too. If Mayweather decided to come back, I think he would be all over this division again. Canelo is a good super welterweight, but he’s too busy worrying about catch-weights. Undoubtedly in another year, I think Taras will be right there with the best of them. He’s got a lot of talent, great versatility, great hand speed and foot speed and he’s a good puncher. Not a devastating knockout puncher but a great puncher nonetheless with both hands.’’

 

SHANE MOSLEY, Fostul campion mondial

How has it been working with Taras and how did you become involved in his training?

“I have been sparring with Taras and he’s looking really sharp. I’ve been sparring with him for about four or five months now pretty consistently because a lot of guys won’t spar with him. Guys are worried that he will make them look bad; he’s so technical and sharp that they don’t want to spar with him. Așa, I go in there with him a lot. It’s hard to get people to spar with him.’’

 

Where do you see him in the welterweight division?

“He’s on that championship path, that level, but I think once he gets there, he’ll get more sparring partners and will get even better. He really is a world champion, a world-class fighter. He reminds me of a bigger Lomachenko, sparring with him is just like that. I see him as a top welterweight champion. The way he throws his combinations, he’s a smart boxer who works out very hard. He’s at the gym every single day, whether he’s sparring or not, whether he has some training to do or not. He’ll even be here by himself just moving around and staying sharp. His work ethic is really, really strong.

 

How do you like working with Taras?

“I like Taras and I enjoy working with him. He’s extremely dedicated and that’s hard to find. I like Taras’ work ethic, his personality, how he takes to boxing. He loves this sport and he wants to be the best. He doesn’t like to lose, even in sparring. I’m impressed with him. When I sparred with him for the first time I was very impressed at his swing, his power, his ring accuracy, his IQ of boxing. I was impressed with how hard he worked and his willingness to learn.’’

 

Do you find it unusual for guys to be as dedicated as Taras at this point in their careers?

“It’s unusual in the sense that a lot of fighters want to learn from the top guys but it seems to me with Taras that it’s not fake. He truly does want to learn about boxing so that he can be the best. He wants to become a world champion and is working to become one of the best. If you put Taras in the ring with any big name today and I’d say he would take the victory. He has a sound mind. He has the mentality to be at the top. He’s serious about being the world champion, about being the top fighter. He’s serious about winning and he’s going to take it all the way to the end. If you put this guy against Thurman, I’d go with him. I think he beats Thurman right now.’’

Acesta a fost momentul 135 un boxer a suferit prima sa pierdere pe ShoBox.

Pentru Douglas, a fost al cincilea consecutiv pe victorie ShoBox și probabil ar fi ia adus un loc pe un viitor SHOWTIME Campionatul BOX® card. The 10 luptatori care au apărut cinci sau mai multe ori pe ShoBox toate au plecat pe pentru a contesta pentru un titlu mondial.

 

"Antoine Douglas este un exemplu perfect a ceea ce face în ShoBox serie. Construim luptători. Noi le dezvolta de la Prospect la concurenților,", A declarat Gordon Hall, Producator executiv al ShoBox: Noua generatie și Senior Vice President al Producție, Showtime Sports. "Am văzut Antoine crească. A început ca o perspectivă promițătoare, și l-am potrivit foarte greu și de fiecare dată el a urcat la sarcina. La noapte, a absolvit ShoBox cu o performanță spectaculoasă; nu exista indoieli El este acum un concurent. "

 

"Avem nevoie de ceea ce Antoine Douglas: Tipul de performanță extrem de dominant care te face să vrei să-l vezi pe cele mai bune mijlocie. In seara asta a fost de absolvire Antoine de la ShoBox. Acum el va deplasa la lucruri mai mari și mai bune,” a spus ShoBoxanalist expert Steve Farhood după aceea:

 

Douglas a mers 10 runde pentru a doua oară și majorat cu baleiaj sa castigatoare a cinci deoarece box o remiză în luna iulie 2014.

 

"Ei au spus acest lucru a fost ziua mea de absolvire, timp de un capac și rochie, astfel încât aceasta a fost cu siguranta o victorie mare,'' A declarat Douglas, un amator de top care a făcut la 2011 S.U.A.. Procesele Olimpice și a fost pretendent nouă-clasat pe locul WBA se întâmplă în. "A fost o experiență mare lupta peShoBox și apreciez tot ce ai făcut pentru mine obtinerea mine gata să meargă la nivelul următor. Acum, e timpul pentru mine să facă pasul următor.

 

"Mă așteptam să câștige, probabil prin knock-out, dar nu ma asteptam sa fie în acest fel. Mă așteptam să fie mai dure Sherrington, mai pregătit. Cred ca baga mea a fost cheia. Îl înființat pentru toate focurile de armă mare am aterizat cu mâna dreaptă și stângă cârlig.

 

"Știam că ar fi mai rapid decât el. Am fost foarte pregătit. Un lucru bun eu sunt fericit despre cum am păstrat calmul meu. ''

 

Sherrington, care a fost lupta în afara Australiei și de a face SUA sa. și 2015 debuturi, a venit în după ce a câștigat opt ​​din ultimele noua lupte, inclusiv ultimul său pereche. Dar NU WBA a. 12 pretendent a fost nici un meci pentru Douglas.

 

"Antoine Douglas este foarte bun și el va merge la lucrurile cu adevarat mari în acest sport,'' Sherrington spus.

 

"Eu nu sunt scuze, dar am fost de congelare și nu ar putea încălzi într-adevăr până. Și apoi mi-a prins la rece. Am venit aici pentru a ajunge la un vis de-a lungul vieții al meu, dar nu a fost menit să fie. Am fost primit în mari ligi din grabă mare și în cel mai rău mod. Toate credit merge la Douglas pentru asta. ''

 

Farhood fost impresionat cu Shelestyuk, un fost standout amator. "[Terasă] Shelestyuk părea luptător cel mai matur de pe card,'' Farhood spus. "El are un pedigree minunat amator, el a fost un olimpic Bronze Medalist. El a luptat un luptător care l-au facut lupta si arunca o mulțime de pumni — el a medie 85 pumni o rundă. El a dominat lupta de la prima rundă și se arăta ca luptător de clasă mondială, care a fost dezvoltat pentru a fi.”

 

Shelestyuk folosit avantajul său înălțime 3½-inch pentru a domina jocul, dar careu Kozaev. "Aceasta a fost o luptă bună pentru mine. Sunt atât de fericit. Am câștigat primul meu titlu pro, a mers 10 runde pentru prima dată și a câștigat toate rundele,'' Shelestyuk spus.

 

"Tipul a fost un adversar foarte greu. Am crezut că am fost de gând să-l knock out în câteva dintre runde, dar el a luat toate pumni mele grele. El a fost un războinic și a avut o mult mai mult experiență decât mine. ''

 

Kozaev, făcând primul său de pornire în 18 luni, a început rapid, dar a fost outhustled și outworked din al doilea tur de pe. "E un luptator bun și am dat cel mai bun mea, dar care au nu au luptat pentru o astfel de perioadă lungă de timp a fost un factor important,'', A spus el.

 

Smith a învins o tăietură urâtă pe ochiul stang de la un Headbutt neintenționată în al șaselea, dar s-au întors să înscrie un knockdown în a șaptea. El a triumfat prin scorurile 79-73 și 78-74 de două ori.

 

"Keenan Smith a învins o reducere foarte rău pentru a câștiga această luptă,'' Farhood spus. "El a marcat un trântă, care a fost neașteptată târziu în lupta. M-am gândit că a fost o luptă foarte aproape, dar Smith a făcut suficient în primele runde pentru a câștiga. El cu siguranță o perspectivă care va primi mai bine.”

 

Smith a fost lupta pentru a patra oară în acest an, după o pauză de trei ani. El a fost mai puțin entuziaști după aceea. "Aceasta a fost o tabără de dur pentru mine. Mama mea a murit. Am dedicat această luptă cu ea și într-adevăr a vrut pentru a obține knock-out,'' A declarat Smith, care a purtat trunchiuri all-roz în onoarea ei.

 

"Eu nu sunt tot ceea ce fericit pentru că am simțit că l-ar fi chiar dacă umărul stâng a fost rău terminat și nu am fost 100 la sută. De asemenea, nu a putut vedea mult la toate din ochiul meu după tăiere.

 

"Dar în seara asta, a fost ca un semimijlocie luptă o semimijlocie junior. Am cântărit în cel 141 și el a fost la 147. Dar merge opt etape pentru prima data a fost cu siguranta un lucru bun. Mă simt ca și cum aș fi terminat mult mai puternică. Vremea nu a fost o problemă. ''

 

Whitaker a avut o perioadă de trei luptă câștigătoare end baleiaj. "Punctajul a fost departe de. A fost o luptă mult mai aproape decât cea,'', A spus el. "Nu înțeleg cum a putut obține a avertizat întreaga lupta pentru deținerea, dar niciodată nu obține un punct luat. Trântă nu a fost chiar o trântă. A fost mai mult de o excursie. Protestează ma întrebat dacă aș putea continua și am fost ca, "Nu a fost chiar rănit, nu wobbled măcar un pic. "

 

"Mi-ar plăcea să-l lupta din nou. ''

 

Teah a câștigat meciul de deschidere a emisiunii de scorurile 79-73 și 77-75 de două ori. "Aceasta a fost o supărat,'' Farhood spus. "Teah bate un luptător care a fost un amator greu. Problema de O'Shaquie Foster este că el părea un amator. El nu a se adapta la pro joc. El nu a demonstrat destulă putere și determinare suficient. El a fost o dezamăgire și [Am] Teah a profitat de asta.”

 

Da, ceea ce face debutul opt rundă, a câștigat al treilea său într-un rând. "Sunt extatic și nu ar putea cere pentru ceva mai bun,'', A spus el. "Acest lucru este cu siguranta cel mai mare câștig mea și am simțit cu siguranță am câștigat. Am fi putut face mai mult, dar am făcut destul de. Aceasta a fost o victorie mare pentru echipa mea. De lucru 10 ore pe zi liberă plătită pentru mine.
