Team USA’s newest boxing star Light heavyweight Khalil Coe

Каларада-Спрынгс, Каларада (Ліпеня 9, 2018) – A star was born last month at the 45й Chemistry Cup in Halle, Германія, when American light heavyweight Khalil Coe shocked the amateur boxing world, stopping Cuban’s multiple world champion Julio Cesar La Cruz in the opening round of the championship final match.
Амаль 100 boxers represented 16 different countries at the Chemistry Cup, у тым ліку, Расія, Украіна, Ірландыя, India and host Germany, in addition to the United States and Cuba.
The 21-year-old Coe, who was boxing in only his 25й match, his first on the International scene, stole the show and he was named Most Outstanding Boxer of the tournament. In the semifinals, Coe knocked out Matus Strnisko, of Slovakia, у першым туры.
VOTE FOR KHALIL COE
Khalil Coe is a candidate for the USOC Best Male Athlete of the Month for June. Voting ends this evening at HTTPS://awards.teamusa.org/
Coe respected but he wasn’t intimidated by his much more experienced opponent, 2016 Olympic gold medalist and four-time world champion La Cruz, who had one less fight in the World Boxing Series than Cue did during his entire amateur career.
“My first fight in the tournament was the hardest I’d had,” Coe explained. “I studied him (La Cruz) a lot and watched him fight in the semifinals (defeating three-time European champion Joseph Ward (Ірландыя), што было адразу пасля майго паўфінальнага бою. Ён (La Cruz) вельмі няўлоўны і яркі, але яму не падабаецца атрымліваць удары па целе. Ён рухае целам, але ён забывае пра сваю галаву. Я пацягнуў яго, на яго, перасоўваючыся з маім рухам нагі і тасуючыся. Ён кінуў лянівы ўдар, і я нанёс яму правы ўдар па падбародку.”
Кое кароткі, кампактны правай рукой прама на кнопку, падзенне La Cruz крыху менш чым за дзве хвіліны да першага раунда. Кубінец абыграў графа, але суддзя пастанавіў, што не можа працягваць. Ла -Крус быў нерухомы “Мужчына” у паўцяжкай вазе і выбіўшы яго, Ко даказаў, што ён сапраўды належыць да эліты, і што няма. 1-рэйтынгавы амерыканец - баец, якога трэба перамагчы з пункту гледжання кваліфікацыі 2020 U.S. Алімпійская зборная.
“Я даю ўсім зразумець, што я тут,” Кое дадаў. “I still need to work on a lot of different things. I need to throw more combinations, keep by stamina up, and improve everything to be better. I’m more of a pure boxer, but I have strength and punching power. Coach (Білі)Walsh doesn’t change his fighters, he adds to what they have. The coaches put together a fight plan and I executed it.”
“Khalil’s performances in Germany were world class,” Team USA head coach Walsh said, “To be truly world class, we now have to repeat those performances regularly, and that’s where the challenge lies.”
On this year’s USA vs. Ireland Northeast Tour, Coe was 2-0 against his Irish counterparts in Boston and Springfield
Coe often got into fights in school, until his mother sent him to a local gym, and his first amateur bout was when he was 12. If he wasn’t boxing right now, the 6′ 1″ Coe believes he would probably be playing college football, as a fullback or defensive end.
Close with his USA teammates, particularly Кішаун Дэвіс, Coe lives and trains with them in Colorado Springs. “We’re more than a team,” the Jersey City, New Jersey boxer concluded, “we’re like a family – хлопцы, gals and coaches — у Каларада-Спрынгс.
“I’m going to turn pro after the Olympics, one way or the other, God-willing, after I win a gold medal.”
Tokyo is legitimately in Khalil Coe’s sights!

Amateur Boxing: USA vs Ireland New England Tour Closes Out With Fantastic Night of Action in Manchester, Нью-Гэмпшыр

Boxing fans packed the Manchester Downtown Hotel Wednesday night to take in a spectacular night of elite amateur boxing. This was the final stop on a three-city tour of Boston and Springfield, Massachusetts and Manchester, Нью-Гэмпшыр. The scheduled fights featured Team USA amateurs facing the best amateur boxers from Ireland. By the final bell, Ireland managed to finish the eight bouts of the evening with a tie score, their best outcome of the tour. Team USA won the first two duals of the tour in Boston and Springfield, адпаведна, дзесяткамі 8-4 і 7-3.
Wednesday’s fights were not all about winning, аднак. For the majority of the boxers involved it was a great opportunity to fine-tune their techniques and get some much-needed international competition experience. Some of Wednesday night’s best performers will also likely be representing their respective countries in the upcoming 2020 Алімпійскія гульні.
The main event of the night featured 2016 Youth World Championships Bronze Medalist Richard Torrez dominating 3-time Irish National Champion Dean Gardiner. The Irish fighter’s towering height and long reach simply could not overcome the fast pace and excellent defensive posture of the shorter American.
Torrez spent the first round executing masterful feinting and punch slipping while scoring with some bombing hooks. Torrez changed levels, used slick head movement, and never let his foot off the gas as Gardiner plodded forward with an unbalanced and wild approach in the early going. A thudding body shot connected for the Irishman in the first, but not much else.
Torrez kept up the quick work rate in the next frame, unleashing left and right hooks and landing cleanly through much of the round. He scored to the body and head easily, though much of the round saw his opponent covering up and waiting for openings. One straight left from Torrez sent his opponent reeling for a moment, but the taller man recovered and did land a phenomenal left hook to the head of Torrez as he was fighting off the ropes. Gardiner tried landing mostly straight punches on the outside and seemed unable to turn over his punches in close.
The third round saw both fighters slugging it out until the final bell with one of the wildest back and forth exchanges of the night, but it was too little and too late for Gardiner. He just could not get his range dialed in. Torrez just outworked his opponent again and landed a few slick uppercuts to go with his thundering right and left hooks. He used the jab sparingly but effectively, spending much of the final frame targeting Gardiner’s body. Torrez earned the Unanimous Decision win with his performance and didn’t take more than a handful of hard shots in the process.
Kelly Harrington, a World Championship Silver Medalist from Ireland, likely had her team’s most masterful performance in cruising to a unanimous decision victory over Stacia Suttles in the opening bout of the night. Suttles struggled to keep herself at the ideal punching range against the unrelenting attack of Harrington in the first round, spending much of the three minutes bobbing and weaving to try to avoid the crisp combinations of her opponent. Suttles did land her jab fairly consistently, and she did begin to put some combos together late in the round, but Harrington is an absolute expert when it comes to head movement. She looked as if Floyd Mayweather, Малодшы. was one of her coaches as she utilized a hands-low technique with constant feints, punch slipping and level changing. The first round saw her landing a beautiful straight left to the head and a fantastic body and head punching combination that landed solidly. She unleashed some fierce hooks, although a few were wild haymakers. Below is a picture of Harrington during one of just a few brief moments in the fight where she brought both hands up to protect her face.
