Tyner and Chambliss Grudge Match Ready to Explode on October 26 u Detroitu

Ostavite komentar

U boksu, there are “grudge” matches manufactured to sell fights, where the hostility is mostly acting. Na primjer, there are indications of that in the buildup to Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury’s upcoming showdown.

 

 

 

And then sometimes, two fighters really, really don’t like each other. Think Terence Crawford taking out Jose Benavidez Jr., recently.

 

 

 

In Detroit, the latter type of grudge match, a real grudge match, has heated to a boil on social media. With insults and threats going back-and-forth daily, outspoken Detroit boxing staple Lanardo “Pain Server” Tyner (34-13-2, 21 Kos) and upstart opponent Cortez Chambliss (4-0, 4 Kos) have been escalating hostilities since the day their match-up was announced.

 

 

 

The two Detroit-based welterweights will finally settle their differences in the eight-round main event on Friday, Listopad 26, at the MotorCity Casino Hotel.

 

Tickets priced between $180-$25 and are available through Ticketmaster outlets.

 

 

 

“He’s trying to bunny hop over me, but he’s not ready,” said an animated Tyner. The 43-year-old is known as a fearless and iron-jawed spoiler. A 14-year veteran, Tyner has been the 12-round distance with elite superstar Canelo Alvarez and world champions such as Lamont Peterson and Antonio DeMarco. He’s also taken out a number of prospects who found out too late they were in too deep.

 

 

 

“I can’t believe he even called me out,” continued Tyner. “He’s going to get a beating. This isn’t the amateurs and there are no shortcuts. This is not the door to come through.”

 

 

 

A heavily decorated former amateur, 21-year-old Chambliss has been flawless, do sada, kao profesionalni. With power in both hands and above-average speed, Chambliss looks like a new face in the resurgent Motown boxing scene.

 

 

 

“This fight is personal to me,"Rekao je. “Not for the same reasons as my opponent; anger and hostility have nothing to do with it. Za mene, it’s all about the energy of the risk and challenge. That’s what life is about: ‘growth through challenge,’ so I’m excited for this opportunity.”

 

 

 

Događaj, entitled “Night of Knockouts XIV” is presented by Carlos Llinas, in cooperation with Dmitriy Salita.

 

 

 

“Carlos Llinas has delivered a consistent, successful series, which has served as a development ground for many notable names in the sport,” said Dmitriy Salita. “This match between Chambliss and Tyner is a classic crossroads fight, with a young, undefeated contender and a proven veteran. A ‘must win’ for both that I know will deliver for the fans. I am happy to be involved with the upcoming event and working together towards producing top contenders and champions in the championship city of Detroit.”

 

 

 

“This is the number one boxing and MMA series in the country that has been going on for nine years and I’m glad to be working with Salita Promotions on this event,” said Carlos Llinas. “It’s good for fighters and everyone involved when promoters can work with each other and provide a platform for fighters to reach the next level.”

 

 

 

Također, na kartici, one of the most promising young fighters in Detroit’s resurgent boxing scene, undefeated bantamweight Ja’Rico “Great Lakes King” O’Quinn (9-0-1, 6 Kos), will return to action six-round bout against former world-title challenger Christian “Italiano” Esquivel of Mexico (30-15-1, 23 Kos).

 

 

 

The MotorCity Casino Hotel is located at 2901 Grand River in Detroit. Na Fight Night, Vrata se otvaraju u 6:30 pm and the first bout begins at 7 pm. All guests must be at least 21 years of age with valid photo ID.

LAS VEGAS, Nevada – LFA CEO Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will crown a bantamweight king and queen with a championship doubleheader when the promotion returns to Dallas in November.

 

 

Glavni događaj LFA 55 will feature a bantamweight title fight when top undefeated prospect Miles Johns battles fellow top contender Adrian Yanez for the vacant title. The co-headliner will feature a women’s bantamweight title fight when regional queenpin Sarah “Too Sweet” Alpar” faces Panamanian superstar Joselyne “La Pantera” Edwards for the inaugural title. LFA 55 – Johns vs. Yanez takes place this Friday, November 30th at The Bomb Factory in Dallas, Teksas. Cijeli Glavna kartica će biti na televiziji uživo i zemlje na AXS TV na 9 poslije podne. I / 6 poslije podne. PT

 

 

“I am excited to bring a championship doubleheader to the birthplace of LFA,” Izjavio Soares. “We will crown a bantamweight king and queen when we return to Dallas on November 30th. Miles Johns and Adrian Yanez are two of our most talented prospects. They will meet for the vacant bantamweight title in the main event of LFA 55. We will also crown the inaugural women’s bantamweight champion when Sarah Alpar faces Joselyne Edwards in the co-headliner of LFA55.”

 

 

 

Ulaznice za LFA 55 – Johns vs. Yanez are available for purchase NOW at TheBombFactory.com.

 

 

 

Johns (7-0) heads into this title fight looking to punctuate what has been a sterling career to this point. The Kansas native, who now calls Dallas home, will get the chance to win LFA gold and run his record to 8-0. That would position him as the undisputed top bantamweight prospect in the world. The powerhouse known as “Chapo” earned his fearsome nickname for his ruthless demeanor inside the Octagon. The 24-year-old Fortis MMA standout has won his last three fights for LFA and Legacy FC (prije spajanja), which includes a statement submission win over fellow top undefeated prospect Eric Ellington at LFA 40. Johns will now up the ante looking for a title winning performance in his first headlining bout for the promotion at LFA 55.

 

 

 

Yanez (7-2) is a Houstonian and fellow LFA standout that will be looking to play spoiler in a long sporting rivalry between Dallas and Houston, which is known as the I-45 Rivalry. Yanez, like Johns, gew up in the promotion. After enjoying a fantastic amateur career for Legacy FC (prije spajanja), Yanez continued his success as a pro. That includes winning his last two fights for LFA in emphatic fashion. They were the types of fights that coaches, obožavatelji, and promoters recognize as special moments in a young fighter’s career. The moments where a fighter transforms from a once promising prospect into a legit title contender. The 24-year-old Metro Fight Club standout now looks to take the next obvious step by becoming champion at LFA 55.

 

 

 

Alpar (7-4) has been a force in women’s MMA since making her professional debut seven and a half years ago. The Oklahoman known as “Too Sweet” has been anything but sweet to her opposition. The 27-year-old most recently earned a regional title by stopping top Paraguayan prospect Pamela Boveda Aguirre via first round TKO. The win gave Alpar two regional titles to go along with a marquee win over Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger earlier in her career. Jones-Lybarger went on to fight for the UFC after wining RFA gold. Alpar will now look to pave a similar path. That journey begins with a shot at the inaugural LFA women’s bantamweight title at LFA 55.

 

 

 

Edwards (8-1) is widely considered the top women’s bantamweight prospect in Latin America. “La Pantera” has been unbeatable over the last three years, which includes seven consecutive wins. The 23-year-old has seven stoppage victories in her eight career wins, which includes a 57-second TKO win over Bellator vet Jessica Middleton in May and a second round armbar win over RFA vet Brenda Gonzales last month. The two wins also earned her a pair of regional titles. Now that Edwards and Alpar are both champ-champs on the regional scene, they will look to go all-in with the inaugural LFA women’s title and #1 women’s bantamweight prospect status on the line.

BANTAMWEIGHT BOUT DODAN NA VEĆ NALAZENU BORBENU KARTU PORTLAND

Ostavite komentar

Portland, Mejn (Svibanj 24, 2018) - Prošli tjedan New England Fights (NEF) objavio službenu karticu za predstojeći povratak u Auru u Portlandu, Mejn. Događaj mješovitih borilačkih vještina, pravo “NEF 34: Dom hrabrih,” bi se trebao održati u subotu navečer, Lipanj 16, 2018 s vremenom zvona od 7:00 pm EDT. NEF-ovi provodadžije, međutim, još uvijek bili naporni na dodavanju borbi na kartu, a ranije danas najavili su dodavanje amaterskog dvoboja u kategoriji. Henry Clark (3-4) će se suočiti Dave Brown (1-3) u borbi težine od 135 funti.

 

 

 

Povod za “NEF 34” je za Henryja Clarka donekle bila divlja vožnja. Prvotno je trebao biti suočen s Floridinim Krishnom Scottom (0-1) na kartici. Neposredno prije objave pune karte za borbu, Scottov kamp obavijestio je NEF da se povlači iz borbe. Clark je ostao u trening kampu na Institutu Choi u Portlandu u nadi da će mu NEF-ovi provodadžije pronaći zamjenskog protivnika. Kad je Dave Brown prišao tanjuru, Clark je brzo prihvatio priliku da se još jednom potuče pred navijačima i prijateljima svog rodnog grada.

 

 

 

“Tako sam zahvalna što se Dave Brown pojačao,” Rekao je Clark. “Potrebno je puno petlje da biste se kratko borili. Borio bih se s bilo kime na tjedan dana da to znači borbu u Portlandu. Izvrsna mi je motivacija da završim svoj kamp znajući protiv koga se borim. Dolazim izložiti i ukrasti show.”

 

 

 

Rodom iz Sjeverne Andover, Massachusetts, Dave Brown veteran je tri borbe iz NEF kaveza. Prije svog vremena natjecao se u MMA-u, Brown se hrvao za državno sveučilište Plymouth u Plymouthu, New Hampshire. Vratit će se u NEF nakon trogodišnjeg izbivanja nakon gubitka od Normana Foxa u proljeće 2015. Braon, “‘Downtown’ Dave Brown” kao što je poznat svojim obožavateljima i prijateljima, raduje se njegovu povratku u akciju.

 

 

 

“Henryja Clarka vidio sam u akciji i jako poštujem njegove sposobnosti,” rekao je Brown kad su ga dosegnuli za komentar. “Ali dođi lipanj 16, Odvest ću ga dolje… cijelim putem u centru grada!”

 

 

 

Nef je sljedeći mješovite borilačke-arts događaj, “NEF 34: Dom hrabrih,” održat će se u Auri u Portlandu, Maine u subotu, Lipanj 16, 2018. Ulaznice su u prodaji sada na mreži na www.AuraMaine.com.

Ulaznice su u prodaji ODMAH do Ticketmaster.com

LAS VEGAS, NV – Izvršni direktor LFA Ed Soares najavio je danas da će se promocija vratiti u Arizonu krajem lipnja. Dvojica nokaut-umjetnika na kojima se najviše plaši postavljeni su za obračun u Dolini sunca kada se sukobe u LFA 44.

 

 

 

Glavni događaj LFA 44 donijet će vatromet pet dana početkom ljeta. Headliner će vidjeti australskog estetskog uništavača Matthewa “Grom odozdo ispod” Frincu se bori s sumornim spavačem kršćanske južne Kalifornije “Zvijer” Aguilera u jednom od najeksplozivnijih obračuna godine. LFA 44 – Frincu vs.. Aguilera se održava u petak, 29. lipnja da kazalište Comerica u Phoenixu, Arizona. Glavna kartica prenosit će se uživo i širom zemlje na AXS TV u 10 poslije podne. I / 7 poslije podne. PT.

 

 

 

“Uzbuđen sam što ću vratiti LFA u Arizonu 29. lipnja,” Izjavio Soares. “Matthew Frincu senzacionalni je napadač. Suočit će se s kolegom nokautom Christianom Aguilerom u glavnom događaju LFA-a 44. Dvije su najopasnije perspektive u poluteškoj kategoriji na svijetu i nastojat će dati veliku izjavu na vrhu jedne od naših najkonkurentnijih divizija.”

 

 

 

Ulaznice za LFA 44 – Frincu vs.. Aguilera je ODMAH moguće kupiti na Ticketmaster.com

 

 

 

Frincu (12-3) došao u LFA prošle godine kao jedan od najuzbudljivijih izvoza koji potječe iz The Land Down Under. Nije gubio vrijeme praveći ogroman polet u svom promotivnom debiju u LFA-u 5. Rodom iz Gold Coast-a, Australija je napala Kris Hocum raznolikim i briljantnim prikazom upečatljivih. “Grom odozdo ispod” predavao masterclass o tome kako učinkovito koristiti domet i muay tajlandsku tehniku ​​za demontažu grabilice na visokoj razini. Deset tjedana kasnije ponudio je kurs o istoj temi, kada je nokautirao brazilskog potencijalnog Maycona Mendonçu za 96 sekundi na LFA-u 11. Nedavno, Frincu je zaustavio prethodno neporaženi meksički potencijalni rimski Alcantar putem TKO-a u siječnju u LFA-u 31. Sada strašan Aussie izgleda izbaciti iz šina jednog od najtežih napadača u diviziji.

 

 

 

Aguilera (11-4) je stekao reputaciju posjedujući neke od najstrašnijih nokaut-moći jednim udarcem u svim MMA-ima. Službenici LFA ugledali su njegov dar uspavljivanja ljudi rano u karijeri kada je Timothyju Quirogi dao drijemati u samo 52 sekunde na RFA 23. Puno se toga dogodilo u tri godine od one proročke noći u okrugu Orange. Početi, “Zvijer” ostario, postao je veći, a mnogima nepojmljivo, postao je još moćniji. Nikog ne iznenađuje, međutim, je njegova sklonost da vlada svojim darom poput mladog superjunaka koji prvi put otkriva svoju sposobnost. Ovo je ostavilo put razaranja u 2018 prateći 83 milja u Kaliforniji od Costa Mesa (LFA 30) do Cabazona (LFA 36). Aguilera izgleda produžiti taj put do Feniksa, Arizona 29. lipnja.

 

 

 

Zajedničko glavni događaj LFA 44 imat će unutardržavnu super borbi kada je dvostruka LFA istaknuta Casey Kenney (8-1-1) bori se protiv trostrukog UFC veterana Romana Salazara (12-6). Prošle godine, Casey je osvojio regionalni naslov u muhaškoj kategoriji prije potpisa s LFA-om. Nakon što je debitirao u LFA-u prošlog svibnja, natjecao se dva puta ispred predsjednika UFC-a Dana Whitea na šefu UFC-a’ Utorak navečer Natječajna serija. Casey se u LFA vratio u siječnju dominantnom jednoglasnom odlukom nad Kendrickom Latchmanom na LFA-u 31. Sada nastoji dati veću izjavu premještajući se u kategoriju težine kako bi se suočio s jednom od najosekiranijih japanskih snaga u Arizoni.

 

 

 

To bi bio čovjek poznat kao “Gallito”. Salazar je UFC potpisao godine 2014 nakon osvajanja više regionalnih naslova u Arizoni u više težinskih razreda. Tri se puta natjecao za lidera u industriji, što uključuje dvoboj na UFC-u 184 protiv japanske MMA legende Kida Yamamota u posljednjoj Yamamotovoj borbi. Nedavno, Salazar je potvrdio svoju dominaciju u svojoj matičnoj državi s nekoliko TKO pobjeda. Salazar sada nastavlja svoj ponovni uspon nadmetanjem pobijedivši jednu od najcjenjenijih perspektiva MMA-a. Salazar potječe iz Mamutha, Arizoni i suočit će se s Kenneyem iz Tucsona, Arizona u jednom od najvećih obračuna države u godini.

 

Trenutno Najavljen Glavni kartice (Televiziji na AXS TV-u 10 poslije podne. I / 7 poslije podne. PT):

DETROIT’S UNDEFEATED JA’RICO O’QUINN TO FIGHT FIRST EIGHT-ROUND BOUT IN UNDERCARD ACTION OF CLARESSA SHIELDS VS. HANNA GABRIELS IBF & WBA WOMEN’S MIDDLEWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP EVENT ON FRIDAY, JUNE 22, IN DETROIT

Ostavite komentar

Popular, undefeated Detroit bantamweight Ja’Rico “Great Lakes King” O’Quinn will continue his climb up the professional boxing ladder in his first eight-round fight, u petak, Lipanj 22, at Detroit’s Masonic Temple.

 

 

 

O’Quinn (8-0-1, 5 Kos) will make his next ring appearance (against an opponent TBA as of now) on the non-televised undercard of the blockbuster “It’s Our Time to Shine” event featuring two-time Olympic Gold Medalist and current Unified Women’s Super Middleweight Champion Claressa Shields attempting to become a two-division world champion against unified 154-pound champion Hanna Gabriels for the vacant IBF and WBA Women’s Middleweight World Championships.

 

 

 

The main event will be televised live on SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION (10 poslije podne. ET / PT) and will also feature highlights of Unified Women’s Middleweight Champion Christina Hammer as she defends her WBC & WBO Titles in her U.S. debut against former world champion Tori Nelson.

 

 

 

Ulaznice za događaj, koji promovira Salita Promocije, dostupni su na Ticketmaster.com or at the Masonic Temple Box Office at (313) 832-7100. VIP tickets are priced at $300, ringside tickets at $125, and remaining tickets at $75, $50 a $35.

 

 

 

The 23-year-old O’Quinn says he’s eager to get in the ring at this historic event.

 

 

 

“I’m excited because this will be my first eight-rounder. I feel good that I’m getting closer to 10- and 12-round fights and a world title shot. I know it will happen, but I have to work my way up to the big fights and get noticed more first. Obuka ide dobro. I was already working out before I found out I was fighting. I was already in good shape, so now we’re stepping it up and getting in serious shape.”

 

 

 

O’Quinn, from the West Side of Detroit in the Plymouth And Greenfield area, enjoys intense popularity among Motown boxing fans, which gives him extra motivation to impress.

 

 

 

“It’s a great feeling hearing my name being chanted by hundreds of people when I come out. It’s what I love and I appreciate that my fans stand behind what I’m doing. I have a great team behind me and great fans.”

 

 

 

A decorated former amateur boxer, O’Quinn won the USA National Championship at bantamweight and the 2013 USA Boxing Youth National Championships. He says it’s that amateur pedigree that gives him his high “boxing IQ” in the ring and makes him so adaptable to any style.

 

 

 

“I have such great management and promoters, I know whoever I fight will be the best for my career, so it doesn’t really matter. Everybody knows I’m always in shape an I’ll be in even greater shape this time. It’s a big show, so I’m doing more of everything to get ready.”

 

 

 

“Ja’Rico O’Quinn is one of the best Bantamweight prospects in the country,” said his promoter, Dmitriy Salita. “His speed, skills and exciting style make his fights very entertaining. His fan base grows with each fight and I believe that Ja’Rico has the skills to join the list of fighters that brought glory to the great boxing city of Detroit.”

Undefeated Puerto Rican Bantamweight Manny Rodriguez Ready for Former World Champion Paul Butler This Saturday at 02 Arena

Ostavite komentar
Bantamweight contender Emmanuel “Manny” Rodriguez and his team have landed safely and ready to face former world champion Paul “Baby Faced Assassin” Butler for the vacant IBF World Championship, ove subote, Svibanj 5, at the O2 Arena in London.

 

 

 

 

Presented by Matchroom Boxing, Rodriguez (17-0, 12 Kos), Portoriko, and Butler (26-1, 14 Kos), 29, Engleske, will meet in a 12-round supporting bout to the all-British rematch between former World Heavyweight Champions Tony Bellew (29-2-1, 19 Kos) and David Haye (28-3, 26 Kos).

 

 

 

 

Rodriguez almost had his very promising boxing career derailed for a time by an unfortunate car accident in which he burned 66% of his body. After a long rehab, he returned, and went on a, do sada, 17-fight tear through the professional ranks.

 

 

 

The 25-year-old was the mandatory contender to face former champion Ryan Burnett, who chose to relinquish his belts. This allowed for Butler to slide into the fight for the unclaimed belt.

 

 

 

29-year-old Butler previously held the IBF belt, but before defending it, elected to drop down in weight to face then-champion Zolani Tete… and was stopped in the eighth round. He has won nine fights since.

 

 

 

“It has been a long road to this fight, but I am ready to win my first world championship,” said Rodriguez. “Paul Butler is a good fighter, ali ništa me ne može zaustaviti. I have worked too hard to get here. It doesn’t matter that we’re in his backyard. I’ve done everything right getting ready for this and I look forward to bringing the belt back to my beloved country of Puerto Rico.”

 

 

 

Rodriguez’ co-promoter, Leon Margules ratnika boksu, says a star will be born Saturday night.

 

 

 

“Manny has always been a superstar in the making. I am happy he is finally getting the chance to shine in front of a large audience, worldwide. I have no doubt he will win impressively and set himself up for several big showdowns in the near future.”

BUTLER MEETS RODRIGUEZ FOR IBF WORLD TITLE ON MAY 5

AWE to Air Live Bellew v. Haye II, u subotu, May 5th

 

 

The Highly Anticipated Rematch between Tony Bellew and David Haye to air Live and Exclusively on AWE
 

 

SAN DIEGO, CALIF. – Travanj 12, 2018 -Paul Butler gets the chance to become two-time IBF World Bantamweight champion when he tackles undefeated Emmanuel Rodriguez at The O2 in London on May 5, live on AWE-A Wealth of Entertainment.

 

 

 

Butler’s clash with Rodriguez is part of a huge night of action in Greenwich as Heavyweight rivals Tony Bellew and David Haye clash in a hotly-anticipated rematch.

 

 

 

Butler landed the IBF strap in April 2014 by taking it from Stuart Hall in Newcastle before vacating the strap to move down to Super-Flyweight in March 2015 to challenge IBF champion Zolani Tete.

 

 

 

The ‘Baby Faced Assassin’ returned to 118lbs and back into title contention when he comfortably saw off Hall in a rematch in Liverpool in September, and is rated at four in the IBF, one spot behind top-rated Rodriguez.

 

 

 

The unbeaten 25 year old visitor is hotly-rated having raced to 17-0 in the paid ranks with 12 wins inside the distance, a rise all the more impressive following an amateur background that was stunted by a car accident.

 

 

 

Rodriguez’s trip to London is his first outside the Americas since turning pro and his first over the championship distance, and Butler intends to make the trip a miserable one for the Puerto Rican and reclaim his title.

 

 

 

“I’m very excited for this,” said Butler. “It’s the reason we came over to Eddie in the first place, I knew he would deliver the big fights for me. We’re just four weeks away. It’s a big test but I’m confident.

 

 

 

“It’s an honor to contest the IBF title again. I want to win it back then hopefully defend which I didn’t have the chance to do last time.

 

 

 

“It sounded a good idea at the time to vacate but looking back now I should have kept hold of the belt. I should have worked on my strength and conditioning, filled out and defended my title. I’ve definitely got some unfinished business with this – it would be brilliant to go out there and win it again.

 

 

 

“It’s a tougher test the last time I won the title, but I’m up for the challenge. I’ve improved myself. He’s touted to be this next big superstar, but how many of them come over here and get turned on their heads?

 

 

 

“I never used to look at my opponents, but since I’ve linked up with Joe he’s always sending me little clips. He looks a good kid, he likes to work at midrange but in truth I don’t want to say too much about what he does and doesn’t do well.

 

 

 

“I don’t care how big and tough he is – we both have two arms, two legs, he’s from Puerto Rico and I’m from Ellesmere Port so let’s get it on. I can see this being a very good fight, we both like to go body to head, head to body but I’ll come out being the two-time IBF World Bantamweight champion.”

 

 

 

Super-Middleweights John Ryder and Jamie Cox clash in a crucial clash in the 168lbs division and Martin J. Ward defends his European Super-Featherweight title against James Tennyson.

 

 

 

Expected start time is 3 PM ET / 12 PM PT.

 

The fight card will also be streamed live via KlowdTV on the AWE channel.

LAS VEGAS (Ožujak 22, 2018) — Unbeaten bantamweight prospect “Baby lica ubojica” maks Ornelas (10-0-1, 4 Kos) goes from the University of Nevada at Las Vegas classroom into an on-campus ring at Cox Pavilion on April 20th to take on his Roy Jones Jr, (RJJ) Boxing Promotions stablemate, Dallas challenger Tony Lopez (12-3, 4 Kos), in the 10-round main event for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA) North American Boxing Association (Također) bantamweight title.
Ornelas vs. Lopez, presented RJJ Boxing Promotions, will air live on beIN Sports, s početkom u 10 poslije podne. I / 7 poslije podne. PT.
“I’ve watched Max come up in the rankings and as his confidence and power have grown,” co-promoter Roy Jones, Jr. rekla. “The way he has represented his hometown and my stable is remarkable. Sada, to witness him fight in front of his fellow UNLV student body, I know he will exude humbleness for RJJ, UNLV and Las Vegas.”
The Las Vegas-born Ornelas was 38-5 kao amater, highlighted by a bronze-medal winning performance at the National PAL Championships, ranked as high as No 2 in the United States in the 123-pound division.
RJJ Boxing Promotions immediately put Ornelas on the fast track from the start. He was late for the official weigh in of his June 10, 2016 pro debut because of his high school graduation, turned 18 the day after his first fight, and later signed an exclusive promotional contract with RJJ on the following Ponedjeljak.
The lone blemish on his otherwise perfect pro record is a two-round technical draw against 6-0 Leopoldo Martinez, which Ornelas avenged three months later u revanš, stopping Martinez in the fifth round. In his most recent fight last November, Ornelas was in his fist 10-round bout, headlining on beIN Sports from Sloan, Ajova, in which Ornelas won a 10-round unanimous decision over veteran Nick Otieno (31-11).
“I love what RJJ Boxing Promotions has done for me,” WBA N0. 14-rated Ornelas spoke about his accelerated pace. “I’m only 19 but they’ve shown that they trust me. They gave me seven fights in six months, making it much quicker for a world title fight. The rest is up to me.”
Ornelas (Zamislio na lijevo) is familiar with Mexico-born Lopez, koji je bio 2012 ft. Worth Golden Gloves champion, having fought on the same card twice in Las Vegas and Arizona. “He’s a southpaw with a cocky style that’s hard to defend,” Ornelas remarked, “but my speed and smarts in the ring will beat him. I think we’ll box a few rounds, like a chess match to open the fight, but I’ll open-up in the middle rounds and take him out in the sixth, seventh or eighth round.
“This will be my toughest fight yet. He’s more experienced. This is going to be a good fight with a title on the line. An impressive win is going to open up more doors for me.”
Ornelas’ parents insisted that Max would have to attend college if he turned pro. He balances his life as a UNLV sophomore, majoring in criminal justice, with that of a prize fighter. Fighting at home, on the UNLV campus in front of family, friends and fellow students, pumps up the affable Ornelas.
“When I’m not training, I’m in school or studying,” Ornelas explained. “I’ve handled things well. I’m disciplined and like to stay busy. I’ll stay in school and keep fighting until I graduate. I’ll probably cut back my workload, iako, when I’m training for a world title fight.
“I’m really excited about fighting at home. I’ll have a lot of people there supporting me. I like pressure and my adrenalin will be pumping. Because of my weight class, I realize that I will need to travel to other countries to fight for titles, but it’s always exciting for me to fight at home in Las Vegas (this will be his sixth pro fight in Las Vegas).”
Former WBA junior featherweight Rico “Suavacito” Ramos (28-5, 13 Kos) squares off against Mexican featherweight Danijel “El Chato” Noreiga (30-11, 15 Kos), a former WBA Fedecentro super flyweight titlist, u osam rundi, co-featured event on beIN Sports.
Opening the televised portion of this loaded card is the much-anticipated professional debut of Uzbekistan-native Elnur Abduraimov, now fighting out of Las Vegas, who was a bronze medalist at the 2015 World Amateur Championships, as well as a 2015 Asian Amateur Boxing Championships winner. The gifted Uzbek will be in a six-round bout versus an opponent to soon be determined.
In a pair of eight-round fights, Australian junior middleweight and past world title challenger, Britanski vojnik “The Titan” Browne (35-7-2, 13 Kos), zadovoljava Carlos Hernandez (15-17, 12 Kos), Portoriko, while unbeaten World Boxing Council (WBC) United States welterweight champion Jimmy “Quiet Storm” Williams (14-0-1, 5 Kos) faces TBA. Williams is a former college football player from New Haven, Connecticut.
Fighting on the undercard in six-rounders are Las Vegas welterweights Kevin Johnson (4-0, 4 Kos) vs. TBA, and undefeated Roy Jones protégé Shady Gamhour (6-0, 5 Kos), a Swedish middleweight now living in Jones’ hometown of Pensacola, Florida.
In four-round action are Russian middleweight Pete Khamukov (1-0, 1 KO) vs. TBA, Ruski teškoj svjetlo Vyacheslav Barsukov (4-0, 3 Kos) vs. TBA and pro-debuting Las Vegas junior lightweight Jaime Gomez vs. Ivan Ortiz (1-0-1, 1 KO), Los Angeles.
Sve borbe i borci su podložne promjenama.
“With Ornelas vs Lopez,” co-promoter Keith Veltre dodano, “fans are going to watch a great battle in every sense of the word. They’re two aggressive fighters who will surely entertain fans on April 20th.
“This card is filled with heavy hitters, power punchers and body shot artists. People are going to walk away feeling the pain of each loss and ready to celebrate all of the victories.”
