WORCESTER, Massa. (Bulan Juni 20, 2018) — This past Father’s Day was considerably different for three-time, Juara dunia dua divisi “The Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera and his pro-debuting son, A.J. Rivera, because they will be “Making History,” presented by Rivera Promotions Entertainment and Granite Chin Promotions, Bulan Agustus 17 at The Palladium.
Rivera and his son, masing-masing, are the promoter and matchmaker for Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), which will co-promote “Making History” with Granite Chin Promotions (GCP).
“We are excited to be teaming up with GCP for this historic boxing event,” Jose commented. “We have had the pleasure of working with Chris (Traietti) and Chuck (Shearns) Pada Masa Lampau. We are grateful that they are able to work with us again to make sure we put together a great boxing event.”
The Riveras will become the first world-champion father-son combination to fight on a pro show that is promoted by their company. More significantly, A.J. will become the first pro boxer to be born with Spina Bifida.
Saat Ini 45 tua tahun, Rivera is making his second comeback, but this time it’s solely to fight on the same card as his son. Due to a variety of reasons, “The Gallo” retired from the ring in 2008, but he came back in 2011 for two fights, both victories, before hanging up his gloves again.
Di 1997, Rivera captured the International Boxing Organization (IBO) World welterweight title, henti Gilberto Flores di babak kedua. Six years later, he traveled to Germany to take on undefeated, favorit kampung halaman Michel Trabant (38-0) for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA) World Welterweight Championship, in which Rivera won a 12-round decision and the belt.
Dua perkelahian kemudian, in front of nearly 10,000 hometown fans in Worcester, Rivera won a 12-round unanimous decision over defending champion Alejandro Garcia (25-1) for the WBA World super welterweight title.
“I am boxing at 45 years old because of this great opportunity that has arisen for my son and I,” Jose explained. “Boxing on the same card with my son is going to be exciting and, even more so, because we will be a part of history! I am fortunate to be healthy, secara fisik, and I am grateful to my Heavenly Father for not having any brain issues from my prior years of boxing. I’ve lost 20 pon, so far, and need to lose 12 more to make the 160-pound weight class.
“I am not sure how the night of the fight is going to go. I play it in my head over and over about how I would like it to go, tetapi pada akhirnya, I’m confident we will both be ready for tough fights because of the hard work we’re both putting in at the gym.
“Fan response has been good, positive and supportive of what we both are doing and attempting to accomplish. To look back at the day I was told my son was going to be born with Spina Bifida, preparing myself mentally for the worse, dan sekarang 25 years later here we are close to fulfilling his childhood dream. It’s amazing! I feel blessed to share this moment with my son. I am also happy that we can do this in front of our family, teman teman & fans in our City of Worcester, where my son was born, and I was raised since I moved there when I was 16.”
On Aug. 17, Rivera will face battle-tested middleweight Ryan “Berbahaya” Davis (24-19, 9 Biaya), fighting out of East Saint Louis, Illinois, di acara utama delapan ronde. Davis has been in with the iron, including six-time, Juara dunia dua divisi Zab Judah, former International Boxing Federation (IBF) Juara dunia Ishe Smith, two-time world title challenger and 2004 AS Olympian Vances Martirosyan, penantang gelar dunia Jonathan Reid, reigning International Boxing Association (IBA) world junior middleweight champion Mark DeLuca, plus other notables such as Rob Brant, Mikael Zewski, Carlos Bojorquez dan Dominik Britsch.
Twenty-five-year-old A.J. will fight an opponent to be determined in a four-round welterweight match. He is a graduate of Johnson & Wales with a major in sports management, who has quickly become one of the most respected matchmakers in New England.
A.J. grew-up in a gym, watching his father train, and he also fought as an amateur boxer. “I’ve always wanted to fight as a pro and what better way than to make my pro debut on the same card headlined by my pops,” Rivera said. “This is a one and done, I’m not going to box as a career and, hopefully I will leave the ring on August 17th and retire undefeated. I plan to make matchmaking a career. I can stay in the sport I’ve always loved and matchmake for our company and for other promoters.
“I was born with Spina Bifida. A layer of skin covered a hole in my back, preventing water from getting in, which would have damaged my system and left me paralyzed, unable to speak and with a shunt in my head to drain fluid. The doctors told my parents that, if I survived, I’d only live to be 19, in a wheelchair and a little autistic. I had surgery the next day and my pops kept hope. As I got older, I played basketball, sepak bola, baseball and boxed. I was inactive for seven years when I went away to school and started matchmaking.”
In addition to sacrificing to make weight, instead of having a Father’s Day cookout, he watched what he ate and, tentu saja, workout with his father in the gym to prepare for his pro debut.
“I wasn’t able to celebrate my 25th anniversary on June 2 salah satu,” A.J. ditambahkan. “I plan to celebrate my birthday and Father’s Day when I step out of the ring on August 17th. Kemudian, I’ll go back to focusing on my craft and become a full-time matchmaker.”
Red-hot Richard “Popeye si pelaut” Rivera (8-0, 7 Biaya), fighting out of Hartford, CT, will be showcased in the eight-round co-featured event. Rivera is the reigning UBF All Americans light heavyweight and ABF International cruiserweight champion.

Coyle after capturing the NBA title PHOTO CREDIT – Damon Gonzalez Latin Box Sports
St. Petersburg, FL (Bulan Juni 20, 2017) – Middleweight up and comer Connor “The Kid” Coyle became the NBA Intercontinental middleweight champion by scoring an impressive sixth round stoppage of local rival Danny “El Bebo” Pastrana Saturday, Bulan Juni 16 at The Coliseum in St. Petersburg, FL.
The card was promoted by Fire Fist Boxing Promotions in association with Money Round Boxing League.
Fighting in front of a sold out crowd, both men looked to impose their will in the early going. Akhirnya, Coyle found his range and peppered Pastrana with jabs while using good movement to steer clear of return shots. With the fight under his control, Coyle buzzed Pastrana with a right hand in round six. Beberapa saat kemudian, the 28-year-old uncorked a massive right hand that sent his Orlando, FL based foe crashing to the canvas. The game Pastrana beat the 10 count but was clearly out of it, forcing the stoppage at 2:50.
Coyle, who hails from Derry, Northern Ireland but trains out of Tampa, FL, meningkatkan ke 8-0 dengan 3 menang dengan KO. Pastrana slips to 6-5 (1 KO).
Dalam pertarungan co-fitur malam, two-time Olympic medalist Ivan Dychko destroyed former title challenger Mike Marrone of Vero Beach, FL in in less than a round. Originally from Kazakhstan and now fighting out of Kissimmee, FL, Dychko scored three knockdowns before the bout was stopped at 2:19.
The 6’9 Dychko ups his professional ledger to 6-0 dengan semua kemenangannya dengan KO. Marrone is now 21-9 dengan 15 KO.
Grand Rapids, MI featherweight Vincent Jennings scored a shocking six round majority decision over local favorite Jose “Lil Pacquiao” Resendiz of St. Petersburg. In a battle between boxer and brawler, Jennings did all he could to keep the aggressive Resendiz, who also had to overcome a cut, on the outside.
Judge Chris Young’s 57-57 tally was overruled by scorecards of 58-56 from both Efrian Lebron and Mike Ross.
Jennings is now 6-5-1 dengan 4 victories by way of KO while Resendiz falls to 5-2.
Welterweight phenom and crowd favorite Mark Reyes Jr., 7-0 (5 KO) Demolished Puerto Rican veteran Javier Garcia in 2:25. Representing Tampa, FL, Reyes displayed impressive speed and dynamic power, scoring a knockdown following a vicious combination that left Garcia unable to continue.
“I am pleased with the card,” said Jody Caliguire of Fire Fist Boxing Promotions. “We were able to showcase a number of top fighters from the Sunshine State and had a great crowd. Connor looked fantastic and we believe the sky is the limit for him. Mark Reyes Jr. Is a great young talent as well and Ivan Dychko is a force to be reckoned with. I’d like to thank all the fighters and every fans who came out to show their support along with Money Round Boxing League for showing the fight worldwide via their website.
Fire Fist returns to the St. Pete Coliseum Saturday, Bulan Oktober 6 and details will be available shortly. Untuk informasi lebih lanjut, visit Firefistboxing.net or Facebook.com/firefistboxing.

Here is what Shields and Gabriels had to say today at the Downtown Boxing Gym in Detroit:
CLARESSA SHIELDS
“It’s been seven weeks of really hard work. A lot of people don’t know and I really don’t like to be open about it, but I got to 183 pounds after my last fight in January and now I’m 160. Itu 23 pon. I was in camp running and getting ready for the fight and having to focus on weight was very different for me.
“I feel good and ready to go. I’m happy that she made it in safe and all that but now I’m just excited. You all know how I get before fights. The champ is here.
“So much has changed since I first turned pro. In my first fight, I was frustrated against Franchon (Crews Dezurn) during our fight. I was frustrated throughout camp and I really couldn’t handle everything that was going on. Now I know how to handle the media, the workouts, the interviews and still remain disciplined. The fact that I had to lose so much weight this camp only added more discipline.
“It makes me so happy and it just touches my heart to see four female fighters on the main fight poster. I was so happy that they decided to put them on TV. They have put me on before but it’s always been my goal to put other women on so when they decided to put Tori Nelson and Christina Hammer on I was so excited because this has never been done before. Women’s boxing is going somewhere.
“I always knew that it would take me to turn professional for women’s boxing to go to a higher level. That’s why I waited to win a second Gold Medal before I turned professional. To be the one to be the leader is special. I feel like I go out there every fight and give my best and show that I can box better than 90 percent of the men that box. If you have a choice to make a man the main event or me the main event, I always want them to choose me.
“There’s always mutual respect between me and my opponents. I’m thankful for them because I can’t do this by myself. I thank Hanna for stepping up and it’s mutual respect until Friday. I start getting really mean on Thursday,Friday is the fight and then after that we can exchange numbers and be friends.
“I expect her to use her gifts. She’s really good on her legs and she’s strong up top. I think she lacks in speed so I expect her to try to counter me and try to force me to make mistakes with her movement. I think she underrates my power.
“I never said that I wanted to get more knockouts. I’m perfectly fine being 5-0 dengan dua KO. Pada akhir hari, I’m fine with that. The longer I’m in the ring boxing, lebih baik. The more they get to see me on TV, that’s fine. Of course I would love to get the big knockout but look how disappointed Errol Spence Jr. was to get such a quick knockout of Ocampo. That didn’t please his fans. Jika sistem gugur datang, datang.
“This will be my toughest fight. She’s the most skilled and has the most experience. She’s a three-time world champion. I’ve fought former world champions but she’s a three-time world champion to date. The girl that beat her, Hanna avenged that loss. I’m looking forward to her coming out and putting 100 percent in and I hope for us to have a great fight.
“I’m always confident going into fights. I’m not leaving the ring without having two new belts.”
HANNA GABRIELS
“I think that this is a time right now where women can have this type of platform. Claressa is a great champion and I have faced great women’s champions. I think it’s a great time for boxing fans to enjoy a quality fight. She’s a champion. I’m a champion. This will be a great matchup.
“You are going to see a very technical and aggressive fighter. That’s the only way that you can fight Claressa because she’s so aggressive herself and so tough, you can’t go in the ring passive against her. You have to put your life on the line in there and that’s what I’m planning to do.
“I feel honored to be on such a great card. This is a great opportunity and I just hope everybody sees this the way that I do. We trained hard. In my case, I wanted to bring the very best out of myself so the fans could leave the arena feeling great. Ini adalah apa tinju adalah semua tentang. Bringing entertainment and emotions that most other sports don’t bring to people.
“Pertarungan ini sangat berarti bagiku. Every person that I love is going through a hard time right now, including my family. I just want to lead by example and show everybody that all odds are nothing. You can still fight the battle with as many resources or as little resources as you have. I’m dedicating this fight to all my loved ones because I promise there will be better times for us.
“When I was five years old I was sexually abused so my teenage years were tough. Sports always took me away from that. When I got an injury and I had to stop competing in track, I thought my life was over. For the next five or six years, I was very destructive and felt like I didn’t have a purpose. When I turned 24, I started a different passage and learned that everything that happened to me just made me the person I am today.
“We don’t really focus on anybody’s weaknesses because we believe if you’re a good professional and you are dedicating your life to this, you are supposed to get better at your weaknesses. So we focus on her strengths and I think we have a great plan. They say that she’s been underestimating me a lot but I think it’s part of her game and part of what she does.
“I think her strengths are pretty obvious. She has great feet. I don’t know if she punches hard but she’s very explosive. She must have a lot of power and she’s very defensive. She keeps her distance and she’s so big and I’m so small that we will have to risk a lot of things. Her confidence is one of her biggest strengths.
“This will probably be my toughest fight so far. I never had an amateur career, I had just one fight. Claressa has fought 80-something times so my schooling has been in the professional environment and I have had to learn in the process. Every fight has been a hard fight because I have to solve problems and I think she is definitely the toughest opponent because she’s so tall and so fast. She must walk around normally at 185 pounds and I’m not as big so we were a little worried at the beginning at how we would reach her body but we finally were able to figure that out in training and I’m confident that my game is going to surprise her a lot.
“Hopefully we can bring a surprise and people will get to see me and let everybody know that there are more great boxers out there that aren’t getting the same exposure or marketing that Claressa is getting. I don’t feel disrespected, I see this is an opportunity to show what I’ve been working on. Let them plan. Maybe those plans will fall.
“It’s going to be a great fight. She’s coming for the victory and I’m coming for the victory as well. She’s in for a big surprise.”

Pesawat tempur top-5 pound-untuk-pound konsensus tidak mengecewakan, memukul tubuh dari bel pembukaan dengan serangan tubuh khasnya dan jenderal cincin yang luar biasa.
Tempat menyimpan bahan makanan, yang membuat pertahanan keduanya sebagai juara 147 pon, melantunkan Ocampo dengan brutal 1-2 combo tembakan tubuh, pukulan kedua mendarat di sisi penantang dan langsung menjatuhkannya saat babak pembukaan berakhir. Ocampo (22-1, 13 Biaya) lumpuh kesakitan saat berada di kanvas, tidak dapat mengalahkan hitungan dan tetap di lantai selama lebih dari dua menit sementara Spence merayakan kemenangannya.
"Saya sedikit kecewa. Saya ingin memberi orang banyak uang mereka,Kata Spence. “Saya ingin dia bertahan sedikit dan memberinya hukuman, tapi tembakan tubuh berhasil menangkapnya dan saya menjatuhkannya. "
Ini adalah kesembilan kalinya Spence (24-0, 21 Biaya) telah menjatuhkan lawan dengan tembakan tubuh di tubuhnya 24 perkelahian profesional.
“Saya tahu jika saya memukulnya lagi, dia mungkin akan jatuh,Kata Spence. “Itu adalah game plan saya. Aku adalah penjambret tubuh. Jika dia bereaksi dengan aneh, Saya terus mendekati tubuh dan terus menghancurkannya. "
Setelah pertarungan, Pemilik Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones, bergabung dengan Spence di atas ring untuk memberi selamat atas kemenangan tersebut.
“Momen ini adalah mimpi,Kata Spence. “Saya ingin bermain untuk Dallas Cowboys dan sekarang saya bertarung di depan Dallas Cowboys dan Jerry Jones. Terima kasih untuk seluruh organisasi Dallas Cowboys.
“Kami pasti akan kembali setelah saya menyatukan beberapa gelar. Kami akan menjadikan ini acara tahunan di mana saya bertarung di sini. "
Jones sangat senang dengan acara tinju pertama di dalam Ford Center di The Star, pusat dari kampus seluas 91 hektar di Kantor Pusat Dallas Cowboys World dan fasilitas praktik.
“Ruangan ini penuh dengan pemain sepak bola Dallas Cowboys yang mendukung Anda,Kata Jones. “Mereka berbagi minat Anda. Saya melihat seorang pria di ring ini yang tahu apa yang dia inginkan. Ketika Anda menjatuhkan seorang pria dengan memukulnya sekali di sisi punggungnya, Anda buruk untuk tulang.
“Saya suka kesadarannya. Dia punya rencana sejak awal. Dia sangat berbakat. Dia memiliki keluarga di belakangnya dan keluarga kami, para Cowboys, ingin berada di belakangnya juga. "
Setelah pertarungan, WAKTU TAYANGAN Reporter olahraga Jim Grey, yang dilantik ke dalam Hall of Fame Tinju Internasional Minggu lalu, tanya Spence apa yang ingin dia lakukan selanjutnya.
“Saya ingin bertarung yang terbaik,Spence berjanji. “Danny Garcia dan Shawn Porter sedang berkelahi (untuk gelar WBC) dan saya pasti ingin menjadikannya pertarungan pemersatu. Kami berdua memiliki manajemen yang sama, kami berdua bertarung pada SHOWTIME. Mengapa tidak mewujudkannya? Saya pasti ingin pertarungan itu kapan pun tersedia. "
Dalam co-fitur televisi, Danny Roman mempertahankan Kejuaraan Dunia Kelas Bantam Super WBA dengan keputusan bulat atas Moises Flores yang sebelumnya tak terkalahkan dalam pertarungan 12 ronde yang dicetak. 116-112, 118-110, 120-108.
Sang juara Roman (24-2-1, 9 Biaya) adalah petarung yang lebih cepat dan lebih tajam dari bel pembukaan. Roma, yang membuat pertahanan kedua dari sabuk 122 ponnya, memukuli tubuh berulang kali 12 putaran, menghubungkan secara mengejutkan 50 persen dari tembakan tubuhnya. Bunga Bunga (25-1, 17 Biaya), yang gagal untuk memperebutkan gelar dan tidak mampu memenangkan sabuk, lelah di paruh kedua pertarungan dan sebagian besar menjadi target stasioner untuk Roman 12 putaran.
Kedua petarung melempar lebih dari 1,000 pukulan, namun Roman-lah yang merupakan petinju yang lebih efektif, menghubungkan secara mengesankan 42 persen tembakan kekuasaannya.
“Saya mencoba untuk meninju dia. Kami mencoba melakukan pertarungan yang cerdas,Kata Roman. “Kami mencoba mengeluarkannya, tapi sayangnya kami tidak bisa.
“Saya ingin bersatu. Saya ingin menantang juara mana pun. Saya ingin sekali menghadapi Rey Vargas atau Isaac Dogboe. Aku juga tidak keberatan kembali ke Jepang. "
“Saya tahu saya mengacau dalam latihan,Kata Flores. “Saya tidak membuat beban, tapi saya masih ingin tampil dan memberikan semua yang saya miliki.
“Kami berdua sering memukul satu sama lain. aku pukul (Roma) dengan beberapa tembakan bagus, Aku tidak bisa menghabisinya. Saya mungkin ada 60 persen hemat energi. Sejak ronde kelima saya harus bertarung dengan hati yang murni.
"(Roma) memberikan pertunjukan yang bagus untuk para penggemar, dan itulah yang membuat saya merasa hebat. Itu yang saya inginkan hanyalah melakukan pertarungan yang bagus. "
Dalam pertarungan pembukaan siaran SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING, Javier Fortuna mengalami cedera saat terjatuh dari tali karena dorongan yang tidak disengaja pada ronde keempat dan pertarungan 140 ponnya dengan Adrian Granados dinyatakan Tanpa Keputusan..
Granados (18-6-2, 11 Biaya) dan Fortuna (33-2-1, 23 Biaya) keduanya keluar berayun dari bel pembukaan. Di babak keempat yang liar, Fortuna dikurangi dua poin, pertama untuk meninju bagian belakang kepala, dan kedua untuk menahan. Setelah pengurangan poin kedua, mantan juara seberat 130 pon Fortuna dengan agresif bergerak maju dan melepaskan serangkaian tembakan.
Beberapa saat kemudian, Granados dan Fortuna meringkuk di sepanjang tali di dekat sudut Granados ketika Fortuna jatuh ke belakang melalui tali, mencambuk lehernya saat dia terjatuh. Mengeluh kesakitan dan kurang gerak, Fortuna distabilkan dengan penyangga leher dan dikeluarkan dari ring dengan tandu yang kemudian disebut sebagai tindakan pencegahan..
Pada saat penghentian, Grandos memimpin ketiga kartu penilaian juri.
Saya tidak mendorongnya. Saya pikir dia jatuh dengan miliknya sendiri,"Kata Granados. “Saya pikir dia sedang mencari alasan untuk keluar. Kami berdua bertempur, tapi aku tahu dia bisa merasakan aku semakin kuat. Dia menangkap saya dengan satu tembakan dan itu membuat saya bersemangat.
“Pertama dan terpenting, saya hanya ingin berdoa agar dia baik-baik saja. Ayo lakukan pertandingan ulang. Aku sudah mati untuk berkelahi pada usia 140. "
Siaran SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING hari Sabtu akan tayang ulang pada hari Senin pukul 10 p.m. ET / PT pada SHOWTIME EXTREME dan akan tersedia melalui SHOWTIME ON DEMAND dan SHOWTIME ANYTIME.

The reigning UBF All Americas light heavyweight champion, Rivera (8-0, 7 Biaya) is arguably the hardest pound-for-pound puncher in New England, if not the entire Northeast. After breaking his last opponent’s ankle with the force of his power, the incredibly popular Hartford fighter
Boxing trainer Tony Blanco and his Hartford Boxing Center gym partner, Michael Tran, recently teamed with Rivera to form Hartford Boxing Promotions, which was promoting its first pro boxing event, “Fight Night at The Capital.”
“I’m excited to have promoted our first show here in Hartford and I hope other promoters will follow,” Blanco commented. “I’m happy for all of the fighters. This was our first but not last show. We’re bringing boxing back to Hartford.
“I’m also excited about Sharrad’s pro debut (Collier), who is like a son to me, and Richie, my brother and partner. Everything I do is for them, that’s who I work for them.”
The durable Solorio had only been knocked out once in 17 pro fights going into the ring against Rivera, who has knock out six of his seven victims.
The first was a feeling-out round, but Rivera picked up the pace in the second, landing several hard shots on his game Mexican opponent. The highly entertaining Rivera cruised through the third through fifth, picking his spots better, but it was bombs away in the sixth as Rivera landed a right that sent Solorio to the deck. Solorio was penalized a point in the sixth for unsportsmanlike conduct.
In the seventh round, Solorio appeared to be fighting to survive, frequently holding and clinching, but he came forward in spurts as Rivera started loading up for a knockout that finally came in the eighth round. Rivera had never fought more than four rounds, but he was determined to ward off his opponent’s wrestling, landing a right-left-right uppercut combination to close the show with only 30 seconds left in the contest.
“I want to thank everybody for being here and bringing our community together in one house,” Rivera said. “Happy Father’s Day. I dedicated this fight to my father who I love so much. I told everybody that he was going down in three, but Solorio was tough. I took him in deep water and I’m strong to the finish because I eat my spinach…..toot, toot!”
In an intra-Connecticut clash of junior welterweights, Danbury’s undefeated Omar “The Beast” Bordoy, Jr. (6-0, 2 Biaya) tersingkir Alexander “El Bravo” Picot (2-6-1), of Hartford, with only one second left in the sixth and final round of co-featured event.
Bordoy was hampered by a cut over his right eye, suffered during the second round from an unintentional headbutt, who was fighting in his first scheduled six-rounder. He pivoted and threw a short, straight right that rocked Picot, dropping him forward on the mat as referee Shada Murdaugh immediately waved off the count, calling the doctor into the ring.

The 21-year-old Collier showed the poise of a veteran and surprising power, especially considering he fought two full divisions higher than his natural weight class, due to his opponent weighing in as a junior middleweight. Collier decked Castillo early and finished him off with a barrage of unanswered punches until referee Danny Sciavone menghentikan tindakan.
“Everything went the way I had planned,” Collier said after the bout. “Before the fight, I knew I was going to win, because I felt so good. People were asking me before the fight how I was feeling and, to be honest, I was a lot more nervous as an amateur.”
New Haven, CT lightweight Anuel Rosa (1-0, 1 KO) turned in an explosive pro debut, blasting an overwhelmed Roger Blankenship (1-3) around the ring until the referee Murdaugh stopped the action at the 49-second mark of the opening round.
