“NEW ENGLAND’S FUTURE 4” RÉSULTATS
Gabriel Gonzaga (R) won his pro boxing debut
WORCESTER, Masse. (Octobre 29, 2017) – Former UFC heavyweight title challenger Gabriel “Il a attaqué” Gonzague has a successful pro boxing debut last night (Samedi, Octobre. 28) in the co-featured event on the “L'avenir de la Nouvelle-Angleterre 4” carte, présenté par Promotions Rivera Divertissement (À propos de nous), au DCU Center, Salle d'exposition, à Worcester.
Le 6′ 2″, 280-pound Brazilian, now fighting out of Worcester (MA), fought another pro-debut boxer with limited MMA experience, Alejandro Esquilin Santiago, de 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! ce soir”
Gonzague (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 (“Il a attaqué”), he has a strong, big head, aussi.”

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. Arbitre Kevin Hope didn’t bother to count.
“My coaches were telling me to be calm because it was a six-round bout,” Rivera a expliqué. “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 KOs) overcame at 15-pound disadvantage, tout au moins, en route to a dominant six-round unanimous decision over Anthony “L'animal” Everett (1-7), of Rowley (MA).
Danbury (CT) poids welter junior Omar Bordoy, Jr. (3-0, 1 KO) stopped New York veteran Bryan “La brique” Abraham (6-31, 6 KOs) au quatrième et dernier tour. Abraham was decked twice and after counting to 10 after Abraham’s second time on the canvas, arbitre Paul Casey a agité l'action.
Three-time national amateur champion Elvis “Chi Chi” Figueroa (3-0, 1 KO), se battre hors de New Haven, pitched a complete shutout over a game, pro-Faisant ses débuts René Nazare(0-1), du Brésil, for a convincing win by way of a four-round unanimous decision.

Former national amateur champion Bobby Harris III breaking out of shadow cast by his father with a little help from his friends
Octobre 28 à Worcester, MA

(L-R) – de face: Bobby Harris III holding Bobby Harris IV and A.J. Rivera; arrière: Bobby Harris and Jose Antonio Rivera
WORCESTER, Masse. (Octobre 2, 2017) – Local prospect Policier “BH3” Harris III is ready to breakout of the shadows cast by his father, retired pro boxer Bobby Harris, départ Samedi nuit, Octobre 28, in the fourth and final 2017 installment of the popular professional boxing series, “L'avenir de la Nouvelle-Angleterre”, au Centre DCU (Salle d'exposition) à Worcester, Massachusetts.
“L'avenir de la Nouvelle-Angleterre 4” est présenté par Rivera Promotions Entertainment (À propos de nous), qui est détenue et exploitée par trois retraités, double champion du monde de division Jose Antonio Rivera et son fils, Antoine (A.J.) Rivera.
“BH3” and A.J. grew-up together in gyms as sons of pro fighters. They had dreams of making it in boxing, which has come to fruition with “BH3” la perspective montante, A.J. the president and matchmaker for RPE. A l'heure, bien que, what’s transpired may be somewhat surreal for both young men.
“I grew up in boxing,” Bobby Harris III explained. “My father always brought me to the gym and his fights. Mon oncle, Adam Harris, was also a pro boxer. My father and Jose were super close, me and A.J. grew-up as brothers. The same blood couldn’t make us any closer. It’s me and AJ. My first amateur fight was when I was 13. A.J. used to run and workout with me. I’d go to his house after school and sleep over on weekends. We planned our lives together in boxing; my job is to fight and A.J. promotes and makes matches.”
“I remember growing up with Bobby as my brother,” A.J. ajoutée. “We did everything together: ran, qualifié, sparred and pushed each other to our greatest limits. He’s grown so much over the years. His natural ability, mixed with years of experience, and Bobby growing into a man will surely lead to him being world champion one day. I’m truly proud and excited to see our childhood plan unfold.”
“BH3” only had about 40 amateur matches but the large majority were at the national level. He is a two-time national amateur champion, including a gold-medal performance in the USA National Championships, and as a member of Team USA, he was rated No. 1 Aux U.S.A, et n. 2 dans le monde.
The 21-year-old decided to turn pro earlier this year, rather than wait for a shot at the Olympics, after discussing his options with his father, as well as Jose and A.J. Rivera, plus his head trainer, Rocky Gonzalez. Worcester boxers such as Jermaine Ortiz et Irvin Gonzalez turning pro, along with the arrival of now 8-month-old Bobby Harris IV, were key factors in his decision to become a professional boxer. “I didn’t want to waste another year,” Bobby admitted. “Turning pro now will get me into rankings earlier. The time was right”
Bobby’s father was a 4-time national amateur champion as a super heavyweight who compiled a 20-2-1 (13 KOs) pro record between 1993 et 1999. Aujourd'hui, he is an important member of his son’s corner, but he did leave a shadow cast over his son, especially across New England.
“People will always compare me with my dad, dans le ring, mais, as good as he was, it’s a great honor to be his son,” Bobby Harris III remarked. “It’s been nothing but good for me. He trained with fighters like (Oscar) De La Hoya, (Shane) Mosley, (Evander) Holyfield and so many other great fighters. We are different, bien que. and now I’m establishing my own identity. The sport has changed so much since he fought. Back then it was mostly two guys beating each other up, not as much of a performance. I like to put on a good performance and have people say, ‘He’s cool, and when does he fight again. My dad has told me how different boxing is today compared to when he fought. Maintenant, marketing is so important for fighters, and a lot of exposure is through social media.
“My father was a heavyweight, I’m going to go down to 154 (moyen junior. He is so much bigger, taller and heavier than I am, so fighting in different weight classes separates us. I’m a different style fighter, trop. I’m more active than him. So that people don’t confuse us when talking, I came up with ‘BH3’ as my persona. We are different in and out of the ring.”
“I have known Little Bobby (as I call him) since he was born,” Jose Rivera noted. “He calls me, Tio (uncle) Jose, and I love him like a member of my family. I am happy and proud to see little Bobby go after his dreams and goals his way and on his terms. I wouldn’t want it any other way. My son, A.J., and I are happy that we can use our RPE company to be able to help little Bobby pursue his dreams and goals. Worcester – and soon enough the rest of the world – will know it’s BH3 Time!”
“BH3” turned pro this past Juin 10, in his Worcester hometown, taking a four-round unanimous decision (40-36 X 3) over an awkward opponent, Rodrigo Almeida, who seemed more interested in survival, often frustrating “BH3” with his constant holding.
“I’m happy with the way that fight went because I learned so much,” Bobby commented. “I was so excited with all the hype about my pro debut, and I was into the crowd trying for the knockout. I learned that I need to take my time, s'amuser, throw combinations and that the knockout will come. Dad liked to jab, I like to hit and run like ‘Sucre’ Rayon (Leonard). My first pro fight wasn’t really me. I’m the matador but I can fight like a bull if the opportunity comes to me. I can change things around but I forgot to have fun in my pro debut.”
“BH3” plans to breakout from his father’s shadow in his Oct. 28e fight against New Yorker Troy Omer “KO Artist” artiste (3-7-1, 2 KOs), contested at a 164-pound catchweight, dans un combat de quatre rondes.
Former WBU Americans and IBU North American cruiserweight champion Vinnie “Cauchemar américain” histoire (16-1-1, 15 KOs), combats hors de Pembroke (MA), will face an opponent to be determined in the eight-round main event.
Former UFC heavyweight title challenger Gabriel “Il a attaqué” Gonzague will make his pro boxing debut in a four-round match against Washington D.C. poids lourd Alando Pugh (1-10-1, 1 KO).
