Ruben Villa Scores Impressive Knockout Win on Saturday Night

Cia ib saib

Philadelphia, Penn. / TXIV YAWG, California. (Lub Xya hli ntuj 2, 2018) – Fast rising featherweight Ruben Villa (12-0, 5 Kos) used an explosive sixth round to knock out Ricardo Lopez (7-3-2, 6 Kos) nyob rau hauv lub “Tshiab ntshav”main event Saturday night from Omega Products International in Sacramento, California.

 

 

 

Vaj Ncaim, a southpaw fighting out of Salinas, California., showed off his superior skill set to a sold out crowd that witnessed a devastating knockout win.

 

 

 

Throughout the fight, Villa used a sharp jab to set up left uppercuts and straight rights. While most boxers use the jab as a range finder, Villa uses it to inflict pain on his opponent either by landing it, or sending an unexpected power shot to the head or body.

 

 

 

The 21-year-old also found success on the defensive side, limiting Lopez to very few clean looks.

 

 

 

The thrill ride came toward the end of the sixth round when a multi-punch combination floored Lopez. The Mexican fighter would get up, but it would prove a poor decision. Villa promptly unloaded power shot after power shot until referee Edward Collantes put a stop to the carnage at the 2:49 cim.

 

 

 

“I was landing solid punches in every round,” remarked Villa, who is promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing. “I knew I would be able to take him out. I wore him down and in the sixth I just let me hands go and I caught him with a lot of heavy punches. I was surprised he got up. He was a tough guy.”

“It means the world to me to be ranked in the top 15 by a major sanctioning body like the IBF,” said Devin Haney. “I work extremely hard. I have dedicated my life to the sport of boxing, and the fact that sanctioning bodies are taking notice of my hard work, reaffirms all the sacrifice I have made. I am very excited for what the future holds.”

Haney handed Menard a one-sided beating up until that point, forcing Menard’s corner to stop the fight.

“I know that after the statement I made in the last fight, people will be watching me closely,” Haney continued. “I have a lot of hype around me! The cat is out of the bag! I’m nobody’s prospect. Kuv yog ib tug contender. If the winner of Garcia vs Sab hnub tuaj wants to fight me next, I’m available. The industry and the real fight fans know who I am. They know I can fight. It’s only going to get better. Kuv tabtom ua hauj lwm nyuaj, and I promise that in my next fight, you will see, an even better Devin Haney than before.”

“Even though I only have four professional fights, I want to fight the best and show the boxing world my skills,” said Savelyeva, a former world, European (2X) thiab Lavxias teb sab (6X) pib xyaum ua tau zus ib, who represented her homeland in the 2012 Summer Olympics and competed in the first-ever women’s Olympic boxing match in history.

 

 

 

“Nina Radovanovic will be my toughest opponent on the professional ring. She is more experienced than me as professional, but I am sure that my amateur experience and already acquired professional experience will be enough for my victory which I plan to be impressive.”

 

 

 

Savelyeva says she’s optimistic about her quickly developing career, given the current state of female boxing.

 

 

 

“Female professional boxing is going in the right direction. Some of the top female fights are as exciting as the male boxers. The fact that Claressa Shields vs Hanna Gabriels did such amazing, record-setting TV ratings proves that women’s boxing at the top level is exciting and wanted.”

 

 

 

Savelyeva’s co-promoter, Dmitry salita, says the fast-track is justified for his talented Russian prospect.

 

 

 

“Women’s boxing had grown exponentially in recent times. Elena’s elite amateur pedigree makes her already one of the best female fighters in the world and I believe in the very near future, she will be a world champion.”

“I’m so excited to be back fighting at home, especially after our history making fight on HBO. I fought Cecilia Braekhus. We were the first women to ever fight on HBO and there were more than a million viewers. If I knew that many people would be watching, I would have been a lot more nervous.”

 

 

 

“Rau ntawm daim ntawv, it was a loss, but it was really a win-win for me, and women’s boxing. It’s already opened a lot of doors for me. There’s been so much growth for me and women’s boxing. It’s going to open the door for other women to fight on networks. It was a step up for women’s boxing, not just for one event, but forever.”

 

 

 

“I’m the first female Native American to fight in New England.”

 

 

 

“I’ve been fighting 18 xyoo. I played basketball and volleyball in high school, but I love boxing.”
 

 

 

“I showed in my last fight that I belong to be with the elite. I want to get a rematch (with Braekhus).”

 

 

 

“Being a road warrior, I’m familiar fighting away or at home, but it’s more comfortable fighting here at home. My hometown crowd is always very supportive.”

 

 

 

“(Saturday) I am going to come out with a victory. My opponent’s taller, but I just need to follow the game plan and execute.”
