KENNEDY JOINS FELLOW COUNTRYMEN, GARY ’SPIKE’ O’SULLIVAN, JOHN JOYCE & NOEL MURPHY ON STACKED HOLIDAY CARD


Saterdag, MARCH 16TH AT THE HOUSE OF BLUES IN BOSTON


EVENT IS ALMOST SOLD OUT. LIMITED TICKETS HIER!


Boston (Maart 4, 2019):


Murphys Boxing is excited to announce that undefeated, Irish heavyweight, Niall Kenneden (12-0-1, 8 Uitklophoue) is bygevoeg om The 4th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Clash wat plaasvind Saterdag, March 16th in Boston, Massachusetts by die House of Blues.


One of Murphys Boxing’s most popular fighters, ‘Boom Boom’, is coming off a dominant unanimous decision win this past October when he took the ‘O’ from fellow undefeated heavyweight, Brendan Barrett in a fight broadcast on DAZN.


Kennedy’s 2019 debut will fittingly take place at this year’s St. Patrick’s Day Clash, his third time appearing at the annual event, and he knows firsthand the excitement and energy that comes with it.


I won the Massachusetts State Heavyweight Title on the Murphys Paddys Day show in 2017 and it was an amazing experience. The atmosphere is like nothing I’ve ever witnessed at a boxing event. I’m looking forward to being part of it again.


Kennedy, despite hailing from Gorey, Ireland where he works full time as a policeman, geveg 10 van sy 13 professional fights in the New England area and actually considers Boston his boxing home.


I’m blessed with the support that I have received from the people of Boston and Massachusetts in general. I have a large family connection in the state who bring out massive support so when it comes to boxing homes, Boston is my first boxing home.


As for 2019, Kennedy is dead set on upping the competition and even has his eyes on a fellow unbeaten heavyweight who like himself is creating a buzz in a boxing crazed east coast city.


My goal is always to improve with each fight. I want to be world ranked and fight the top names in the division but I know if that’s going to happen, 2019 has to be a huge year for me. There’s a lot of fighters I want to share the ring with but right now I think myself vs Philadelphia’s Darmani Rock is a fight that should and will happen.


Murphys Boxing stigter, Ken Casey agrees that 2019 will be a breakout year for Kennedy and that his addition to the St. Patrick’s Day Clash takes the event to a whole new level.


Niall is one of our most popular fighters and he has huge fights on the horizon. We want to keep him active this year so he can be at his best for what lies ahead. Having an Irish heavyweight on a St. Patrick’s Day show puts this card over the top as one of the best Murphys Boxing has ever done.


The Saint Patrick’s Day Clash will truly be an Irish heavy affair as Kennedy joins a card that has fellow Murphys Boxing stablemate, Cork, Ierland se Gary ‘Spike’ O’Sullivan (29-3, 20 Uitklophoue) in a risky fight against Khiary Gray (16-4, 12 Uitklophoue) as well as the much anticipated all Irish welterweight showdown between Cork, Ierland se John Joyce (7-0, 4 Uitklophoue) and Lucan, Ierland se Noel Murphy (12-1-1, 2 Uitklophoue).


Headlining the annual event will be NABA Junior Middleweight Champion, Massachusetts’ Mark DeLuca (22-1, 13 Uitklophoue) who will put his title, and his top 10 world ranking, on the line against Connecticut’s Jimmy Williams (16-1-1, 5 Uitklophoue).


In die mede-hoofren, onoorwonne NABA Light Heavyweight Champion, Connecticut’sCharles Foster (17-0, 8 Uitklophoue) will take on once beaten, Chicago power puncher, Mike Jiminez (22-1-2, 14 Uitklophoue).


Murphys Boxing’s 4th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Clash takes place on Saturday, March 16th in Boston, Massachusetts at the House of Blues (15 Lansdowne Street). Deure open om 19:00. The night will also feature a specialin ringacoustic performance by The Dropkick Murphys. Limited tickets are on sale now at:

RYAN KIELCZWESKI RETURNS IN CO-MAIN EVENT


UNDEFEATED WELTERWEIGHT, MIKE OHAN JR. TO APPEAR


Vrydag, MARCH 29TH AT MEMORIAL HALL
IN MELROSE, MASSACHUSETTS


Info Online verkope gestop BY WWW.MURPHYSBOXING.COM



Boston, Massachusetts (Februarie 26, 2019):


Murphys Boxing is proud to announce the return of junior middleweight contender and fan favorite, Greg Vendetti (20-3-1, 12 Uitklophoue) wat op sal neem Manny Woods (16-8-1, 6 Uitklophoue) Vrydag, March 29th at Memorial Hall in Melrose, Massachusetts in 'n 10 ronde bout.


Vendetti, who last summer pulled off a massive upset against former world title challenger,Yoshihiro Kamegai op ESPN2, found himself in the Top 10 rankings and was offered the chance to fight France’s Michel Soro vir die WBA Interim Super Welterweight Championship in Paris this past December.


‘The Villain’, who was on an incredible 16 fight winning streak, came up short in his first shot at a title but is looking to get back in the winning column in front of his hometown fans at Memorial Hall in a tough match up against upset specialist, Manny Woods.


Despite the loss, 2018 was an amazing year for me. Ek geveg 5 times and I had the biggest win of my career as a B-side against Kamegai which landed me in the Top 10. We were offered the Soro fight for the Interim world title and even though I felt like my body needed some time off, you can’t say no to that kind of opportunity. You never know when or if it will come again.”, explains the Stoneham, Massachusetts native.


It was a rough camp. I trained too hard. My body was falling apart. As for the fight, it was an ugly knockout but that’s part of the game. I’m proud of how I handled it. No shame. No embarrassment. I wasn’t phased by it. Of course I wasn’t happy about it but my first thought was what do we do to get better? The fight showed me I have to get sharper. Continue to be aggressive but be smarter and more tactical about it. It was only one battle in a long war.


As for taking on a seasoned veteran like Woods when he could have easily asked for a tune up, Vendetti shows the attitude that has made him such a fan favorite.


I like to fight and wanted to be in a real fight in my return. Knocking out a ham and egger in the first round isn’t enjoyable for me or the fans. It’s a waste of a camp and a weight cut not to mention you don’t learn anything. Woods is a durable, legit guy who is coming to win. That’s what I need and want.


And after going 50/50 against against world class opposition last year, would Vendetti be willing to take on a top 10 fighter again in 2019?


“100%. I want to make a statement against Woods then keep improving with each fight. I don’t want to take any steps back with the opposition. Everything forward. As long as I’m healthy, I will fight anyone in the division.


In die mede-hoofren, fellow Murphys Boxing stablemate and Massachusetts fan favorite, Ryan Kielczweski (29-4, 11 Uitklophoue) will take on an opponent to be named in an 8 round contest in the lightweight division.


‘The Polish Princeis coming off his show stealing back and forth battle with Tommy Coyle at TD Garden in Boston this past October on the undercard of the Demetrius Andrade WBO world middleweight title fight.


Despite dropping the decision, Kielczweski, who hails from Quincy, Massachusetts, showed world class talent and massive heart in an all out war that had the arena crowd on it’s feet.


Also featured on the card will be the most recent addition to Murphys Boxing’s growing roster, Mike ohan Jr. (8-0, 5 Uitklophoue).


The son of a popular New England area professional fighter in the 1990s, Ohan Jr. followed in his father’s footsteps going 82-10 in the amateurs and picking up multiple Goue handskoene in New England titels.


Fighting a remarkable 8 keer in 2 years and upping the competition level in each outing, including a unanimous decision over veteran, Daniel Sostre in sy laaste geveg, Ohan has been on the fast track as a professional. The impressive win lead to the young fighter, who hails from Holbrook, Massachusetts, being offered a contract with Murphys Boxing.


I am beyond excited to be a part of the Murphys Boxing family.”, says Ohan, Jr. who will fight an opponent to be named in a 6 round bout on the card.


Being with such an active promotional company will give me the opportunity to grow as a fighter and showcase my skills as I move towards my dream of one day being a world champion.


In addition to the three headlining local favorites, the card will feature a 4 round super lightweight women’s bout between Jillian DiAuto (1-1, 1 KO) en Sarah Click (0-1-1), as well as the east coast debut of Venezuelan super lightweight sensation, Luis Arcon (5-0, 5 Uitklophoue) who will take on an opponent to be named in a 6 ronde bout.


3 more undercard bouts will be announced shortly to kick off the night at the beloved throwback venue which has become a mainstay of Murphys Boxing.


Memorial Hall is my favorite fight venue.”, says Ken Casey, founder of Murphys Boxing.


It gets incredibly loud in there when Greg fights and with the bowl seating, it feels like a mini coliseum.


Vendetti, who will be making his 7th appearance at the always sold out venue, couldn’t agree more with his promoter.


It’s intense. I really do feel like a gladiator fighting in a coliseum when I’m at Memorial Hall and for a gladiator there’s only two optionsvictory or death.


Vendetti vs. Woods takes place on Saturday, March 29h at Memorial Hall in Melrose, Massachusetts (590 Main Street). Deure open om 19:00. Kaartjies is te koop nou op: www.murphysboxing.com

Boston (Februarie 4, 2019):



Murphys Boxing is proud to announce their 4th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Clash will take place on Saterdag, March 16th weer by die House of Blues in Boston.


Headlining the stacked card will be Whitman, Massachusetts’ Mark DeLuca (22-1, 13 Uitklophoue). The current NABA Super Welterweight Champion, is ranked #10 in the world by the WBA and will defend his title against Connecticut’s Jimmy Williams (16-1-1, 5 Uitklophoue) in an all New England 10 round battle.


DeLuca is coming off the highest profile win of his career this past October when he fought on the undercard of Demetrius Andrade se world title fight at TD Garden which was shown worldwide on DAZN. DeLuca won a unanimous decision in what was an immediate rematch of the only blemish on his record, a split decision loss to Walter Wright, considered by most in attendance to be a robbery. Now DeLuca finds himself, not only one of the most popular fighters in New England, but also in contention for a world title shot later this year.


Being in the Top 10 nou, I know that I’m only a phone call away from a life changing opportunity.”, explains the former Marine turned title contender.


I’m always in the gym. I’m staying focused. I know I need a good performance against Williams to keep that opportunity alive.


Having already headlined a Murphys Boxing event on St. Patrick's Day, DeLuca is well aware that it isn’t the average boxing card.


“St. Patrick's Day. Boston. Dropkick Murphys. What more can you say? The atmosphere is electric.


In die mede-hoofren, one of boxing’s favorite characters, Gary ‘Spike’ O’Sullivan (29-3, 20 Uitklophoue) will make his return to Boston, where he has amassed a huge following, to take on Worcester, Massachusetts’ Khiary Gray (16-4, 12 Uitklophoue) in what promises to be an action packed 8 round battle.


The Cork, Ireland native who is promoted by Murphys Boxing in association with Golden Boy Promotions has moved down to the junior middleweight division where he is looking to make a splash in 2019 after finishing last year with a unanimous decision victory in his home country against the 40 fight veteran, Gabor Gorbics.


Boston is a home away from home for me.”, says the outspoken, handlebar mustached slugger who has fought in the New England area 10 keer.


Murphys Boxing Saint Patrick’s Day events are not to be missed. The crowd is insane and I’m coming to give them what they wanna seea fight!”


The night will also feature a who’s who of New England’s hottest young contenders and prospects.


Murphys Boxing’s Charles Foster (17-0, 8 Uitklophoue) will put his NABA Light Heavyweight Championship title on the line in a 10 round bout against Chicago’s Mike Jimenez (22-1-2, 14 Uitklophoue).


The New Haven, Connecticut based Foster is a world ranked contender (#10 in die WBA) and is fresh off a national television appearance last year when he beat the previously undefeated, Alvin Varmall, Jr. op Showtime. He will face one of his toughest challenges yet against the dangerous, power punching, Jimenez whose only loss came to two-time world title challenger, Jesse Hart.


Revere, Massachusetts’ favorite son, Travis Mazac Gambardella (5-0-2, 2 Uitklophoue), who trains out of the popular, KnuckleHeadz Gym in Ventura, Kalifornië, will return home to try and extend his undefeated record against fellow Boston area fighter, Maceo Crowder (2-2, 1 KO) in 'n 6 round middleweight contest.


South Boston’s Joe Farina (4-1, 3 Uitklophoue), who last fought against Gambardella, dropping a razor close majority decision on the undercard of Demetrius Andrade’s middleweight title fight at TD Garden, will look to get back in the winning column in a four round welterweight rematch against New Jersey’s Steve Moore (1-6, 1 KO) who lost a split decision to Farina last year.


In keeping with the holiday’s theme, there will be an all Irish grudge match when Lucan, Ierland se John Joyce (7-0, 4 Uitklophoue) travels to America to take on Cork, Ierland se Noel Murphy (12-1-1, 2 Uitklophoue), who is now based in New York City, in an 8 round welterweight clash that has Irish pride on the line.


The night will be kicked off by the highly anticipated professional debut of Mansfield, Massachusetts welterweight, James Perella. The decorated amateur fighter will turn proagainst Woburn, Massachusetts’ Bruno Dias (0-5) in 'n 4 round contest.


“Die St. Patrick’s Day Clash is my favorite promotion of the year and one that our fighters and fans really look forward to.”, verduidelik, Murphys Boxing founder and Dropkick Murphys frontman, Ken Casey.


The atmosphere that’s created when you put boxing on in a general admission, standing room only concert venue, let alone on St. Patrick's Day in Boston, creates a unique and intense experience.


As for the incredibly busy and successful year the promotional company is coming off of, Casey, who will also play 4 consecutive shows with Dropkick Murphys the same week at the same venue, is even more excited about what the new year holds.


“2018 was a breakout year for Murphys Boxing but with contenders like Mark DeLuca and Charles Foster in the position for world title shots later this year and a slew of undefeated prospects on the verge of world rankings, not to mention multiple cards already planned, 2019 will take Murphys Boxing to a whole new level.


Murphys Boxing’s 4th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Clash takes place on Saturday, March 16th in Boston, Massachusetts at the House of Blues (15 Lansdowne Street). Deure open om 19:00. The night will also feature a specialin ringacoustic performance by The Dropkick Murphys. Kaartjies is te koop nou op:

Dit was die laaste stop op 'n drie-stad toer van Boston en Springfield, Massachusetts en Manchester, New Hampshire. Die geplande gevegte het Team USA -amateurs gekonfronteer met die beste amateur -boksers uit Ierland. By die laaste klok, Ierland het daarin geslaag om die agt wedstryde van die aand af te sluit met 'n gelykop telling, hul beste uitkoms van die toer. Team USA het die eerste twee tweestryde van die toer in Boston en Springfield gewen, onderskeidelik, deur tellings van 8-4 en 7-3.

 

Woensdag se gevegte was nie net oor wen nie, egter. Vir die meerderheid van die betrokke boksers was dit 'n goeie geleentheid om hul tegnieke te verfyn en 'n broodnodige internasionale kompetisie-ervaring op te doen. Sommige van die beste presteerders van Woensdagaand verteenwoordig waarskynlik ook hul onderskeie lande in die komende 2020 Olimpiese Spele.

 

 

Die hoofgebeurtenis van die aand word aangebied 2016 Wêreldkampioenskappe vir jongmense Bronsmedaljewenner Richard Torrez oorheers die driemalige Ierse nasionale kampioen Dean Gardiner. Die hoë hoogte en lang reikafstand van die Ierse vegter kon eenvoudig nie die vinnige pas en uitstekende verdedigingshouding van die korter Amerikaner oorkom nie.

 

Torrez het die eerste ronde deurgebring met die uitvoer van meesterlike knipsels en stryk, terwyl hy met 'n paar bomhake geslaan het. Torrez het vlakke verander, gebruik gladde kopbeweging, en laat nooit sy voet van die gas af toe Gardiner vroeg met 'n ongebalanseerde en wilde benadering vorentoe beweeg nie. 'N Dodelike liggaamskoot het in die eerste geval vir die Ier verbind, maar nie veel anders nie.

 

Torrez het die vinnige werkstempo in die volgende raam aangehou, los die linker- en regterhake los en land skoon deur 'n groot deel van die rondte. Hy het maklik na die lyf en kop geslaan, hoewel 'n groot deel van die ronde sy teenstander toegesmeer het en wag vir openinge. Een regs links van Torrez het sy teenstander vir 'n oomblik laat wankel, maar die langer man het herstel en 'n fenomenale linkerhaak aan die kop van Torrez geland terwyl hy van die tou af veg. Gardiner het probeer om meestal reguit houe aan die buitekant te kry, en dit was skynbaar nie in staat om sy houe naby te keer nie.

In die derde ronde het albei vegters dit uitgehaal tot by die laaste klokkie met een van die wildste heen en weer -uitruilings van die nag, maar dit was te min en te laat vir Gardiner. Hy kon net nie sy bereik bel nie. Torrez het net weer sy teenstander oortref en 'n paar gladde bo -snitte gekry om met sy donderslag regs en links te gaan. Hy het die steek spaarsamig maar effektief gebruik, spandeer 'n groot deel van die finale raam wat gerig is op die liggaam van Gardiner. Torrez het die eenparige oorwinning behaal met sy vertoning en het nie meer as 'n handjievol harde houe in die proses geneem nie.

 

Kelly Harrington, 'n Wêreldkampioenskap silwermedaljewenner uit Ierland, het waarskynlik die mees meesterlike vertoning van haar span gehad om na 'n eenparige beslissingsoorwinning oor Stacia Suttles in die eerste wedstryd van die nag te kom. Suttles het gesukkel om haarself by die ideale ponsgebied te hou teen die onverbiddelike aanval van Harrington in die eerste ronde, 'n groot deel van die drie minute spandeer en wag om die skerp kombinasies van haar teenstander te vermy. Suttles het haar stomp redelik konsekwent gekry, en sy het laat in die rondte 'n paar kombinasies begin bymekaarmaak, maar Harrington is 'n absolute kenner wat kopbeweging betref. Sy lyk asof Floyd Mayweather, Jr. was een van haar afrigters, aangesien sy 'n hand-lae tegniek met konstante vingers gebruik het, pons gly en vlak verander. In die eerste ronde beland sy 'n pragtige reguit linkerkant na die kop en 'n fantastiese kombinasie van lyf en kop wat stewig beland het. Sy los 'n paar hakies los, alhoewel 'n paar wilde hooimakers was. Hieronder is 'n foto van Harrington tydens een van die kort oomblikke in die geveg, waar sy albei hande opgehef het om haar gesig te beskerm.

Suttles het Harrington in die tweede ronde met 'n paar blik- en skietskote gevang, maar dit lyk asof sy sukkel om krag agter haar houe te kry. Sy het wel 'n paar ordentlike regte hande met haar teenstander verruil, maar aan die einde van die ronde was dit duidelik dat sy net nie 'n ritme in die stryd sou kon vind nie as gevolg van die listigheid van haar teenstander. Harrington het dieselfde rondte deurgebring om haar reeks met skerp te maak 1-2 kombinasies en regte loodregte verbind. Harrington het ook 'n paar kragtige linkerhake aangeteken met 'n perfekte reguit regterlanding net 'n paar oomblikke later.
Die derde ronde was meer dieselfde vir albei vegters. Suttles het 'n groot deel van die raamwerk gewerk om haar teenstander op te spoor, maar elke keer het sy afgelaai, sy het daarvoor betaal. Een besonder stewige linkerhaak het laat in die ronde geland, maar dit was net nie genoeg nie. Harrington het 'n groot deel van die afgelope drie minute probeer om met die vleuel met die regterhand te skakel. Sy het laat in die ronde een van haar hardste slae in die geveg gekry en haar opponent kort voor die klok verstom om die geveg te beëindig. Harrington neem 'n eenparige besluit weg en lyk na die gewig as een van die belowendste boksers op haar gewig 2020 Olimpiese Spele.
Nog 'n voorbeeld van hoogte wat op die een of ander manier 'n nadeel was, het 'n rol gespeel in die ander vroulike geveg op die kaart. Team USA se Leah Cooper (#2 Amerikaanse vroulike middelgewig) gebruik eend en vee om die groter bereik van Aoife Burke te vermy. Cooper het uit 'n halfhurk geveg, dit maak dit vir Burke moeilik om met die grootste meerderheid van haar slae met 'n beduidende mag te beland. Die 8-keer Nasionale Ierse kampioen
het 'n paar plekke in die geveg gehad waar sy weer beheer oor die aksie gekry het, maar Cooper het die regte aanpassings gemaak om die bedreigings tot die minimum te beperk.
Cooper het 'n swermaanval uitgevoer om die eerste ronde te begin, afvuur 1-2 kombinasies en steun Burke up. Sy was geduldig en volhard gedurende die hele raamwerk, bly laag en buite bereik van Burke se kragskote. Burke het uitstekende verdediging getoon, maar sy kon net een hou op 'n slag gooi en land. Sy het 'n skerp stukkie deur die hele ronde vertoon, maar dit het Cooper net nie afgeskrik nie. Burke het haar beste oomblikke van die ronde in die rigting van die laaste klok, meng skote met die liggaam en kop, insluitend 'n harde regterhaak aan die kop.
Burke het vir die tweede ronde aan die brand gesteek, storm Cooper met 'n vinnige vuur 1-2 kombinasies en hake. Sy meng ook 'n gladde bo -sny wat Cooper se ken gevind het. Cooper het die storm verduur, val net kort in die strik. Sy herwin haar kalmte, 'n paar uitstekende toonbanke gekry, en verander wat Burke se beste ronde kon gewees het in die ergste van die Ierse kampioen. Cooper bly kalm en koel, ondanks die neem van die moeilikste skote, het haar teenstander in die stryd beland. Sy het 'n paar uitstekende gekry 1-2 kombinasies na Burke se aanval, uiteindelik 'n sny naby Burke se linkeroog oopgemaak en haar neus bebloed. Cooper se harde lyfpons het Burke ook kort na die doek laat hurk na 'n stewige regterhaak.
Burke het die derde ronde 'n bietjie laat begin nadat hy deur die dokter aan die kant van die kantoor besoek is. Sy het weer begin met 'n vlaag bomaanvalle. Sy het die liggaam en die kop geteiken, maar Cooper versamel haarself weer en gaan aan die werk. Sy het die vlakke goed verander en met woedende hake begin skakel, eers na die liggaam en dan terug na die kop. Sy het ook voortgegaan met 'n aktiewe jab en het 'n veelvoud gekry 1-2 kombinasies. Burke het in die laaste oomblikke van die geveg nog 'n laat vlaag reggekry, maar Cooper het steeds die eenparige oorwinning behaal.
Team USA se liggewig James Browning het Woensdagaand die stryd aangesê met Ierland se Francis Cleary as 'n tweemalige bokskampioen in die VSA. Cleary, 'n nege keer Ierse nasionale kampioen, verteenwoordig Browning se eerste kraak by internasionale kompetisie. Albei vegters het hul oomblikke gehad, maar dit sou wees dat Browning die oorwinning behaal aan die einde van drie vermaaklike, heen en weer aksierondes.
Browning het die eerste ronde deurgebring om 'n hoër werksnelheid as sy teenstander vas te stel en baie beweging te gebruik om die aanval van Cleary te vermy. Hy het ook 'n konsekwente steek gekry, vermeng sy liggaam en kopskote goed. Alhoewel hy die ronde gewen het, Browning het baie risiko's geneem en die prys betaal. Cleary het sy plekke gekies en die meer skoon en kragtige slae losgemaak toe hy kon land. Hy kon net nie genoeg verbind nie, en hy het byna elke keer uit die moeilikheid gekom toe hy in 'n nabye omgewing geveg het.
Dit het duidelik nog 'n paar skerp bomme in die tweede raam geland, raak meer aggressief en begin sy voortdurend bewegende teenstander opspoor. 'N Donsende linkerhaak naby die einde van die ronde het met Browning se kop gekoppel en die indrukwekkende huis van aanhangers beïndruk. Steeds, Browning bly besig en het goed gevaar in die afwisseling tussen die twee vegters. Hy was dikwels wild, maar die werkuitset het Cleary daarvan weerhou om die rondte te steel.
Cleary kom uit vir die derde ronde met 'n hernieude woede, besig met 'n wilde geveg met Browning. Dit was die beste ronde van die stryd vir Cleary, en Browning kon nie die ontwykendheid wat hy in die vorige rondes getoon het, handhaaf nie. Die Ierse vegter het nog 'n bloeiende linkerhaak in die ronde geland, het toonbanke met 'n perfekte tydsberekening, en hou aan tot by die klok. Browning blyk beslis aan die einde van die stryd gefrustreerd en moeg te wees. Steeds, twee uit die drie beoordelaars was seker hy verdien die oorwinning, verdien 'n gesplete oorwinning.
Die volgende wedstryd het agtmalige Ierse nasionale kampioen, Wayne Kelley, teen die 13-jarige Amerikaanse nasionale kampioen, Adrian Benton, in 'n noue weltergewigstryd getref.. Albei jong vegters het ligpunte in die wedstryd gehad, maar Kelley het daarin geslaag om die gesplete beslissingsoorwinning met 'n knap uit te haal, dapper inspanning.
Benton het die beter eerste ronde gehad danksy 'n swermaanval. Hy het binne en buite bereik gewerk met 1-2 kombinasies en spaarhake. Hy het al sy hoeke goed gebruik, maklik uit die moeilikheid beweeg en in 'n effektiewe bereik kom. Kelley het gesukkel om tellers te kry tot op die laaste oomblikke van die ronde toe hy sy eie vlaag gekry het 1-2 kombinasies.
Kelley het die tweede ronde met baie meer krag en krag begin. Hy het vroeg en gereeld geland, linkerhand gevou en 'n sny op Benton se lip oopgemaak. Benton het 'n paar van die gevaarliker slae ingegooi, skote goed geblokkeer en skerp geland, eie skote. Sy beste uitruil was 'n linker- en regterhaak teen die kop wat naby die middel van die ronde beland het.
Kelley het in die laaste ronde effens vertraag, kon nie sy ideale reeks vind nie. Hy kry 'n paar harde regterhande, 'n goed geplaasde liggaam geskiet en afgelaai met 'n laat storm. Benton het vroeg in die ronde besig gehou en kunstig onder 'n bomaanval van Kelley ingeduik. Dit lyk asof die beoordelaars meer beïndruk was met Kelley se kalmte in die laaste twee rondes, terwyl Benton aanhoudend tot slordige bakleiery getrek het.. Kelley het die oorwinning behaal met a 2-1 marge.
Die ligte weltergewigte kom daarna, lewer nog 'n stywe wedstryd. Ierland se Caoimhin Ferguson het 'n effens beter taktiese benadering teen Team USA se Charlie Sheehy geveg, verdien nog 'n gesplete besluit oorwinning vir sy span.
Sheehy het in die eerste ronde 'n meer versigtige en geduldige benadering aangeneem, wag vir die perfekte oomblik om te gooi en te land. Sy beste slae van die ronde was 'n harde regterhand aan die lyf en 'n stysel. Ferguson het meer werk in die raamwerk gedoen, met verskeie hake teen die kop en 'n paar keer wilde en mal vlae loslaat. Een spesifieke linkerhaak het in die laaste oomblikke van die ronde hard teen Sheehy se kop vasgery.
Ferguson het 'n paar behoorlike houe in die tweede ronde behaal, maar Sheehy was baie meer gekomponeer. Hy werk rond in die wildswaai, hardnekkige aanranding deur afstand te hou en van buite af te score met 'n paar skerp regte op die ken. Die vegters het 'n paar hake aan die liggaam geruil en voor die einde van die rondte in 'n knippie beland.
Sheehy het in die laaste ronde gesukkel om slae saam te snoer. Alhoewel hy 'n mooi reguit regterhand vir hom gehad het, Ferguson kon sy verdediging binnedring. Ferguson het vroeg 'n stampende linkerhaak geland en nog 'n paar bomme geland voordat hy sy mondstuk in een ruil verloor het. Hy het waarskynlik geweet dat hy sterk moes eindig om die beoordelaars aan sy kant te kry, Ferguson het in die laaste sekondes met 'n laaste haakstorm gehaas. Hy verdien 'n 2-1 besluit wen vir sy volharding.
Welterweights Kieron Molloy (Ierland) en Freudis Rojas, Jr. (USA) vierkantig af in 'n ander stryd. Albei vegters is vorige bronsmedaljes van die Wêreldkampioenskap, met Molloy wat ook nege Ierse nasionale titels opeis en Rojas die Amerikaanse onderdane wen 10 tye tot dusver. Dit was nog 'n noue oorwinning vir Team Ireland.
Rojas was duidelik die meer aktiewe vegter in die eerste ronde. Hy gebruik 'n konsekwente steek en verhoog sy werksnelheid deur die raam. Hy was besig met die aanval tot die klok. Molloy begin die ronde vleuelskote en probeer sy bereik bereik. Hy het 'n bietjie laat losgelaat in sommige van die kwaai uitruilings, kon nie uitvind hoe om sy kombinasies aan die gang te kry nie, en dit was moeilik om die vinniger Rojas in te haal. Molloy het wel uitstekende reguit links geland, al.
Die volgende ronde het baie beter gegaan vir die Ierse suidpoot. Hy het begin met 'n styging in sy ponsuitset, hoewel hy nog steeds gesukkel het om kombinasies te land. Op 'n stadium in die rondte, Molloy verbind met 'n groot reguit links, opgevolg deur 'n lekker kragstoot, vertraag sy teenstander. Rojas het aanhou vorentoe kom, maar kon nie in die ronde gebruik maak van die skep van geleenthede nie. 'N Laat vlaag stampe van Rojas was nie genoeg vir hom om die rondte te steel nie.
Rojas landed some excellent shots in the final round, going downstairs to the body frequently. He also caught Molloy against the ropes, blasting him with straight punches. Molloy fought the smarter round, al, picking the best times to throw and often catching Rojas with his hands down. His best exchange of the round featured a huge 1-2 connecting to the head and a wild left hook to the head. A final swarm of punches from the Irish fighter closed the show and earned him a 2-1 split decision win.
Team USA’s Nikita Ababiy scored a hard-fought win in a wild affair before the main event with Team Ireland’s Gerard French. The first round saw Ababiy jabbing well. The American came into the fight with a very non-traditional boxing stance with one hand low, maar dit lyk asof sy postuur effektief was om sy teenstander in 'n peilgebied te lok. Ababiy het 'n paar knalhake gekry en 'n mooi linkerkantse snit wat Frans ondersteun het. Intussen, Frans konsentreer daarop om tellers te probeer land. Hy het 'n laer werksyfer, maar het ook nie te veel straf opgelê nie.
French het die tweede ronde deurgaans probeer ruil. Hy het later in die ronde nog houe gekry, insluitend 'n paar verhitte regterhake in die laaste oomblikke. Ababiy het 'n paar skootskote in die ronde gemaak en ook 'n goeie verdediging aangebied. Hy meng sy skote teen die liggaam en kop, gooi en bedek om te wag vir die volgende opening. Ababiy het 'n goeie linkerhaak teen die kop gekry, gevolg deur 'n perfekte regterkant in die laaste minuut. Hy het die ronde goed afgesluit op pad na sy eerste oorwinning.
Die laaste ronde het Ababiy effens vertraag, maar hy was steeds effektief genoeg om die raam te dra. French het 'n paar skerp linkerhake aan die kop geslaan, maar hy kon nie uitvind watter styl sy teenstander na die ring gebring het nie. Die Amerikaner het na die eenparige besluit gewen.
Die aand het ook begin met die enigste stop op die kaart danksy 'n woeste geveg tussen die plaaslike 132 pond Manchester, NH -nuwelinge Michael Correa en Abhisek Thapa. Correa vlieg oor die ring toe hy die openingsklok hoor en los die een storm na die ander. Thapa het hom nie deur die tornado laat verswelg nie, al. Hy bedek hom net en wag vir sy geleenthede. Dit het net 'n paar minute geneem voordat Correa begin moeg raak vir die meedoënlose aanval. Thapa waai toe in om van die indrukwekkendste skote van die nag te kom, dwing die skeidsregter om die stryd te stop vir drie staande agt tellings voordat die einde uiteindelik met 'n stormwind van kragstoot van Thapa gekom het.

 

Die bokser Floyd Mayweather het ook 'n gasverskyning gemaak, Jr. noem nog steeds sy moeilikste teenstander ooit, Emanuel Augustus (3-34-6, 20 Uitklophoue). Augustus het die vorige aand aan 'n reünie deelgeneem “Ierse” Micky Ward (38-13, 27 Uitklophoue), vier een van die beste gevegte in die geskiedenis van die sport, wat op Julie plaasgevind het 13, 2001. Augustus het vasgehou vir die gevegte en het selfs in die ring gekom om aan te toon dat hy nog steeds dieselfde ponsvernuf het wat hom een ​​van die vermaaklikste vegters van sy era gemaak het..
'Ons het uit hierdie toer geleer dat ons daar is met die beste spanne ter wêreld,”Het die hoofafrigter van Team USA, Billy Walsh, gesê. 'Span Ierland is baie goed, jong span. Ons gaan 'n goeie span hê om na Tokio te stuur (2020 Olimpiese Spele). Ek is trots op my span. Hulle het almal baie hard gewerk. Ons het nie van ons beste boksers gehad nie, omdat sommige aan 'n internasionale toernooi deelgeneem het 18-19-20 jariges wat ons sal uitmaak 2020 Olimpiese span. ”

Team Ireland het ook hul eie produksiespan gebring om al die aksies te verfilm vir diegene wat nie daar kon wees nie:

COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Maart 19, 2018) – Retired pro boxer Emanuel Augustus has confirmed his attendance this week at a USA Boxing-hosted reunion of the 2001 Stryd van die Jaar, associated with the final stop on the 2018 USA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour festivities in Manchester, New Hampshire.
Die 2001 Fight of the Year was held July 13, 2001, at Hampton Beach Casino in Hampton, NH., and it is still considered one of the greatest matches ever broadcast on ESPN. “Ierse” Micky Ward won an incredibly entertaining, back-and-forth junior welterweight match-up withboxing culthero Emanuel Augustus, by way of a 10-round unanimous decision that was much closer than the judgesscoring indicated (98-90, 96-91, 96-94).
Ward versus Augustus was truly the event of the year in boxing and we’re so happy it was held right here in New Hampshire,” said Stephen, who has been in his position as chairman since 1974, “Micky was losing the fight until the later rounds. As the chairperson of he commission, I checked the judgesscorecards after six or seven rounds and Micky was losing. Dan, Micky caught Augustus, dropped and really hurt him. He went on to win a great fight.
The high-profile win positioned Ward for what turned out to be his epic Gatti trilogy, while Augustus went on to become one of the most dangerous, upset-minded opponents in boxing. Ward, Augustus and the third man in the ring that night, Hall of Fame referee Steve Smoger, will host as USA Alumni Association event Tuesday, See. 20 at The Shaskeen Pub & Restaurant (909 Elm St. in Manchester), begin by 6 namiddag. EN.
The trio will also be joined by two others closely associated with the 2001 Stryd van die Jaar, Chairman of the New Hampshire Boxing and Wrestling Commission, Bobby Stephen, as well as International matchmaker, Eric Bottjer, who made the Ward-Augustus fight in 2001.
All five will also attend the USA Boxing Alumni Association event as well as the following night’s (See. 21) USA vs. Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour finale at the Manchester Downtown Hotel in Manchester, New Hampshire.
SPECIAL MANCHESTER AMATEUR BOXING MATCH ADDED
A special lightweight novice WILL open the competition, showcasing two Manchester amateur boxers, Abhisek Thapa (Titel Boksklub) en Michael Correa (Manchester PAL).
Presented by Corona Premium, the Manchester event will start at 7 namiddag. EST, and it also serves as a fundraiser for another partner of the show, the Manchester PAL Boxing Club.
Kaartjies is redelik geprys teen $20.00 vir algemene toelating, $30 for reserved ringside seats, and available to purchase on Seacoast Ticket Agency’s website, www.seacoastticket.com, the official ticket distributor for the event.
We’re so happy to have the USA-Ireland Northeast Boxing Tour here in Manchester,” Stephen added. “The talent on both squads is extraordinary. We’re honored to have these two teams here for this big event. It’s a credit to USA Boxing and (special events director) Al Valenti, who has done so much over the years for boxing in New Hampshire. Boxing was very popular here many years ago. People turned out in droves to attend the Golden Gloves. There’s a boxing resurgence and that’s so important to teach young people discipline, respect and conditioning that’s so needed today. These amateurs do their best for the love of boxing; they aren’t in it for money like professionals.
Micky is honorable, a real nice person. It means a lot for local fans and boxers to meet him. We were fortunate to have him fight in New Hampshire on serval occasions and nobody who watched his fight Augustus or his trilogy with Arturo Gatti will never forget.”.
