FRISCO, TEXAS (Juin 16, 2018) – Errol Spence Jr. defended his IBF Welterweight World Championship with a first-round knockout of previously undefeated mandatory challenger Carlos Ocampo in a homecoming fight Saturday on SHOWTIME at Ford Center at The Star. VIDEO: https://s.sho.com/2HTG4Zv

 

 

 

A sellout crowd of more than 12,600 fans packed Ford Center at The Star in Frisco to witness Spence’s first homecoming defense as champion and his first fight in Dallas since 2015. The consensus top-5 pound-for-pound fighter did not disappoint, pounding the body from the opening bell with his trademark body attack and superb ring generalship.

 

 

 

Spence, who was making his second defense as a 147-pound champion, floored Ocampo with a brutal 1-2 body shot combo, the second punch landing flush on the challenger’s side and instantly flooring him as the opening round concluded. Ocampo (22-1, 13 KOs) crippled over in pain while on the canvas, was unable to beat the count and remained on the floor for more than two minutes while Spence celebrated his victory.

 

 

 

“I was a little disappointed. I wanted to give the crowd their money’s worth,” Spence said. “I wanted him to sustain a bit and give him some punishment, but the body shot got him and I dropped him.”

 

 

 

It was the ninth time Spence (24-0, 21 KOs) has floored an opponent with a body shot in his 24 combats professionnels.

 

 

 

“I knew if I hit him again he would probably drop,” Spence said. “That was my game plan. I’m the body snatcher. If he reacts weirdly, I just keep going to the body and I keep breaking him down.”

 

 

 

Après le combat, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones joined Spence in the ring to congratulate him on the victory.

 

 

 

“This moment is a dream,” Spence said. “I wanted to play for the Dallas Cowboys and now I’m fighting in front of the Dallas Cowboys and Jerry Jones. Thank you to the whole Dallas Cowboys organization.

 

 

 

“We’ll definitely be back after I unify some titles. We’ll make this an annual thing where I fight here.”

 

 

 

Jones was thrilled with what was the first boxing event inside the Ford Center at The Star, the centerpiece of the 91-acre campus of the Dallas Cowboys World Headquarters and practice facility.

 

 

 

“This room was full of Dallas Cowboys football players supporting you,” Jones said. “They share your passion. I saw a guy in this ring who knew what he wanted. When you knock a guy out by hitting him once on the side of his back, you’re bad to the bone.

 

 

 

“I love his awareness. He had a plan from the beginning. He is exceptionally gifted. He has family that is behind him and our family, the Cowboys, want to be behind him as well.”

 

 

 

Après le combat, SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray, who was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame last Sunday, asked Spence what he would like to do next.

 

 

 

«Je veux combattre le meilleur,” Spence promised. “Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter are fighting each other (for the WBC title) and I definitely want to make that a unifying fight. We both have the same management, we both fight on SHOWTIME. Why not make that happen? I definitely want that fight whenever it’s available.”

 

 

 

Dans la co-métrage télévisé, Danny Roman defended his WBA Super Bantamweight World Championship with a unanimous decision over previously undefeated Moises Flores in a 12-round fight that was scored 116-112, 118-110, 120-108.

 

 

 

The champion Roman (24-2-1, 9 KOs) was the faster and sharper fighter from the opening bell. Romain, who was making the second defense of his 122-pound belt, pounded the body repeatedly over 12 tours, connecting on a staggering 50 percent of his body shots. Fleurs (25-1, 17 KOs), who failed to make weight for the title fight and was unable to win the belt, tired in the latter half of the fight and was largely a stationary target for Roman for 12 tours.

 

 

 

Both fighters threw more than 1,000 poinçons, yet it was Roman who was the more effective boxer, connecting on an impressive 42 pour cent de ses coups en puissance.

 

 

 

“I was trying to box him. We tried to do a smart fight,” Roman said. “We tried to take him out, but unfortunately we couldn’t.

 

 

 

“I would like to unify. I would like to challenge any of the champions. I’d love to face Rey Vargas or Isaac Dogboe. I don’t mind going back to Japan either.”

 

 

 

“I know I messed up in training,», A déclaré Flores. “I didn’t make the weight, but I still wanted to perform and give it everything I have.

 

 

 

“We both hit each other a lot. je frappe (Romain) with some good shots, I just couldn’t finish him. I was probably around 60 percent energy-wise. From the fifth round on I had to just fight with pure heart.

 

 

 

"(Romain) put on a great show for the fans, and that’s what makes me feel great. That’s all I wanted was to put on a good fight.”

 

 

 

Dans le combat d'ouverture de l'émission de télévision Showtime Championship Boxing, Javier Fortuna suffered an injury while falling through the ropes due to an accidental push in the fourth round and his 140-pound matchup with Adrian Granados was ruled a No Decision.

 

 

 

Granados (18-6-2, 11 KOs) and Fortuna (33-2-1, 23 KOs) both came out swinging from the opening bell. In a wild fourth round, Fortuna was deducted two points, first for punching to the back of the head, and second for holding. After the second point deduction, the former 130-pound champion Fortuna aggressively moved forward and unloaded a series of shots.

 

 

 

Quelques instants plus tard, Granados and Fortuna were clinching along the ropes near Granados’ corner when Fortuna fell backward through the ropes, whipping his neck as he fell back. Complaining of pain and lack of movement, Fortuna was stabilized with a neck brace and removed from the ring on a stretcher in what was later described as a precautionary measure.

 

 

 

Au moment de l'arrêt, Grandos was leading on all three of the judges’ scorecards.

 

 

 

“I didn’t push him. I think he fell with his own,” Granados said. “I think he was looking for an excuse on his way out. We were both battling, but I knew he could feel I was getting stronger. He caught me with a shot and it just turned me up.

 

 

 

“First and foremost I just want to pray that he’s OK. Let’s do the rematch. I’ve been dying for a fight at 140.”

 

 

 

Saturday’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast will re-air on Monday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available via SHOWTIME ON DEMAND and SHOWTIME ANYTIME.

Laisser un commentaire
Siffler, Siffler!
Richard “Popeye” Rivera fume Jaime Solorio au 8e round

HARTFORD, Conn. (Juin 17, 2018) – Héros folklorique de Hartford montant Richard “Popeye le marin” Rivera a gardé son record pro parfait (8-0) intact, assommer son adversaire coriace, Jaime “Zarco” Solorio (12-4-2, 9 KOs), au huitième tour pour remporter le titre vacant ABF Continental cruiserweight, hier soir (Samedi) dans l'événement principal sur le “Nuit de combat à la capitale” carte de boxe pro, au Xfinity Center à Hartford.

 

 

 

Le champion en titre des poids mi-lourds UBF All Americas, Rivera (8-0, 7 KOs) est sans doute le puncheur livre pour livre le plus dur de la Nouvelle-Angleterre, sinon tout le nord-est. Après avoir cassé la cheville de son dernier adversaire avec la force de son pouvoir, le combattant incroyablement populaire de Hartford

 

 

 

Entraîneur de boxe Tony blanc et son partenaire de gym Hartford Boxing Center, Michael Tran, a récemment fait équipe avec Rivera pour former Hartford Boxing Promotions, qui faisait la promotion de son premier événement de boxe pro, “Nuit de combat à la capitale.”

 

 

 

“Je suis ravi d'avoir promu notre premier spectacle ici à Hartford et j'espère que d'autres promoteurs suivront,” Blanc a commenté. “Je suis content pour tous les combattants. C'était notre premier mais pas le dernier spectacle. Nous ramenons la boxe à Hartford.

 

 

 

“Je suis également enthousiasmé par les débuts professionnels de Sharrad (Charbonnier), qui est comme un fils pour moi, et Richie, mon frère et partenaire. Tout ce que je fais est pour eux, c'est pour eux que je travaille.”

 

 

 

Le durable Solorio n'avait été mis KO qu'une seule fois en 17 combats professionnels entrant dans le ring contre Rivera, qui a assommé six de ses sept victimes.

 

 

 

Le premier était un tour de ressenti, mais Rivera a accéléré le rythme dans le deuxième, atterrir plusieurs coups durs sur son adversaire mexicain de jeu. Le très divertissant Rivera a navigué du troisième au cinquième, mieux choisir ses spots, mais c'était les bombes dans le sixième alors que Rivera a décroché un droit qui a envoyé Solorio sur le pont. Solorio a été pénalisé d'un point en sixième pour conduite antisportive.

 

 

 

 

Dans le septième round, Solorio semblait se battre pour survivre, tenant et accrochant fréquemment, mais il s'est avancé par à-coups alors que Rivera commençait à se charger pour un KO qui est finalement arrivé au huitième tour. Rivera n'avait jamais combattu plus de quatre rounds, mais il était déterminé à repousser la lutte de son adversaire, atterrir une combinaison uppercut droite-gauche-droite pour fermer le spectacle avec seulement 30 secondes restantes dans le concours.

 

 

 

“Je tiens à remercier tout le monde d'être ici et de rassembler notre communauté dans une seule maison,” Rivera a déclaré. “Joyeuse fête des Pères. J'ai dédié ce combat à mon père que j'aime tant. J'ai dit à tout le monde qu'il descendait dans trois, mais Solorio était dur. Je l'ai emmené en eau profonde et je suis fort jusqu'au bout car je mange mes épinards…..siffler, siffler!”

 

 

 

Dans un affrontement intra-Connecticut de poids welters juniors, Danbury est invaincu Omar “La Bête” Bordoy, Jr. (6-0, 2 KOs) assommé Alexander “El Bravo” picot (2-6-1), de Hartford, avec seulement une seconde à jouer dans le sixième et dernier tour de l'événement en vedette.

 

 

 

Bordoy a été gêné par une coupure à l'œil droit, subi au deuxième tour d'un coup de tête involontaire, qui se battait dans son premier six rounds programmé. Il pivota et lança un short, tout droit qui a secoué Picot, le laissant tomber sur le tapis en tant qu'arbitre Shada Murdaugh a immédiatement écarté le compte, appeler le docteur sur le ring.

 

 

 

Une star est née lors de ses débuts professionnels en tant que double championne des Golden Gloves de la Nouvelle-Angleterre “L'unique” Sharad Collier (1-0, 1 KO, combats à domicile à Hartford, a montré son vaste arsenal de compétences, assommant Image de balise Antonio Castillo, Jr. (1-1) au premier tour.

 

 

 

Le Collier de 21 ans a montré l'équilibre d'un vétéran et une puissance surprenante, d'autant plus qu'il a combattu deux divisions complètes plus élevées que sa catégorie de poids naturelle, en raison de son adversaire pesant comme un poids moyen junior. Collier a paré Castillo tôt et l'a terminé avec un barrage de coups de poing sans réponse jusqu'à ce que l'arbitre Danny Sciavone arrêté l'action.

 

 

 

“Tout s'est passé comme je l'avais prévu,” Collier a déclaré après le combat. “Avant le combat, je savais que j'allais gagner, parce que je me sentais si bien. Les gens me demandaient avant le combat comment je me sentais et, pour être honnête, J'étais beaucoup plus nerveux en tant qu'amateur.”

 

 

 

New Haven, CT légère Anuel Rosa (1-0, 1 KO) tourné dans un début pro explosif, faire exploser un débordé Roger Blankenship (1-3) autour du ring jusqu'à ce que l'arbitre Murdaugh arrête l'action à la marque des 49 secondes du premier tour. Rosa, 21 ans, a dédié le combat à son cousin, la fin Luis “KO King” Rosa (23-1, 11 KOs), décédé tragiquement en janvier dernier dans un accident de voiture à l'âge de 26.

 

 

 

Nouvelle-Bretagne, CT poids plume Nathan Martinez (1-0) a eu un autre début pro très impressionnant, lancer un blanchissage complet (40-35) sur les trois juges’ tableaux de bord contre Henry Garcia (0-2), bien qu'il s'agisse d'un combat bourré d'action du début à la fin. Martinez a utilisé des coups de corps mortels, laisser tomber Garcia avec un crochet gauche dans le foie, et des combinaisons croustillantes.

Rivalta Inks Puerto Rican Amateur Standout Luis Melendez to Managerial Contract

Laisser un commentaire
Fort Lauderdale, Florida-based boxing manager Henry Rivalta proudly announces the signing of 19-year-old featherweight prospect Luis “El Chucho” Melendez to a promotional contract.
A stand-out amateur in Florida and his native Puerto Rico, Melendez will be making his professional debut under the guidance of Rivalta in July.
Born and raised in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, Melendez started boxing at age 11. He went on to have 124 combats amateurs, winning a number of Puerto Rican and international titles including the Junior Olympics, Olympic Cup, and the Puerto Rican Nationals from 101 lbs. à 132 lbs.
Melendez says the managerial deal is the culmination of a long association the pair have held. “When I was about 15, I went to spar at the Mike Tyson Gym in West Palm Beach and I was sparring a pro and Henry saw me. He told me he likes what he sees and since then he’s had his eye on me. Now that I’m reaching my dream of going pro, Henry is the right person to help guide my career.”
A throwback fighter with a style more suited for the professional ranks, Melendez calls his style ‘smart aggressive.’
I have a very pro style. I sit down on my punches. I like to throw combinations a lot. I like to break my opponents down. I like to go to the body. Ou, depending on the opponent, I can box you. I can also hit and not get hit when I need to.”
Melendez says training at KO Fitness in Hialeah, Floride, with trainer Michael Robles is going well and he’s excited to get started on his professional career. "Je me sens bien. C'est mon rêve. I have always loved the pros. I used to watch and say ‘man I will be there one day.’ I’ve always had that style. I want to win titles in six divisions. I want to be the best pound for pound. I want to be the next face of Puerto Rico.”
“Luis has all the talent to become a world champion,”A déclaré Henry Rivalta. “He’s been a stand-out since he was a kid and he’s developed into a very good fighter. I’m happy to finally be working with him in the professionals. I look forward to a long and prosperous relationship with this next great fighter from Puerto Rico.”

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday ahead of the first boxing event to take place inside Ford Center at The Star:

 

ERROL SPENCE JR.

 

 

 

“I’m really happy to be here and I’m so happy that everyone came out. Saturday night is going to be great. I’ve been training for 10 weeks and I’m 100 percent focused on Ocampo. I’m here to do my job, which is to win and look good winning.

 

 

 

“Ocampo is very dangerous because he has nothing to lose. It’s his first title fight, which is a position I’ve been in before. I had a lot of fire and I felt like I had nothing to lose. I’m sure he’s been training hard and is focused. I know he’s fighting for him family so he’s going to come to fight. I want a guy who’s going to test me so the crowd gets their money’s worth.

 

 

 

“I’ve had pressure my whole boxing career. Being on Olympian and a top prospect was pressure, but then I also went overseas to take the title from a top fighter. I’ve always overcome the pressure on me and I’m going to overcome another test on Saturday night.

 

 

 

“Every fight is a statement fight. Il ne importe pas qui je me bats. All eyes are on me in the welterweight division. People want to see if there are chinks in my armor, so it’s important for me to put on a great performance and prove I’m the best welterweight in the division.

 

 

 

“Dallas already is a boxing town, just not enough boxing comes here. I can be the star who has annual fights and bring the city out like we’re doing Saturday night. I’m going to prove we’re a boxing city in Dallas and that Texas is a boxing state period. I do this for the whole state.

 

 

 

“We work hard every camp and we’re 100 percent dedicated. There hasn’t been much difference in this camp than normal. The sparring with Jermell Charlo was top quality and has me prepared for Saturday night.

 

 

 

“I’m ready to line up those other champions. I’ve said that since I was 15-0. I want to fight every opponent and take them out no matter who it is. I’m here to prove that I’m the best in the division.”

 

CARLOS OCAMPO

 

 

 

“We’re here on the same stage and I’m ready. I’m appreciative to be here and I’m calm. Je n'ai rien à perdre. He has all the pressure of being in his hometown. I’m just relaxed and ready to fight.

 

 

 

“I’ve studied his fights enough. What’s most important is that I know that he has everything to lose and I don’t. He has a home field advantage, mais à la fin de la journée, it’s just two guys in the ring.

 

 

 

“I’ve gotten a great reception from the people here in Dallas. I’ve been treated like a champion and after Saturday I’ll be a world champion. You don’t want to miss this fight.

 

 

 

“He can try to come and knock me out, but this is my dream. This is what I’ve trained my whole life for and I’m not going to let this chance pass me by.

 

 

 

“I’m going to use my height, distance and jab throughout the fight. The counter will be important for me. I’m going to look to catch him so he better be ready.

 

 

 

“Je vais tout laisser dans le ring. I’m going to show what I have and give everyone a great performance from start to finish.”

 

DANIEL ROMAIN

 

 

 

“Flores is a tough opponent. I don’t overlook anybody. I know he’s going to come in and fight. Defending my belt is the only thing that’s on my mind.

 

 

 

“We work hard like always. The only thing that changes in camp is strategy, and we will be ready for anything Flores can bring.

 

 

 

“We’re going to be ready for his pressure. I’m going to fight a smart fight. If we have a chance to take him out early, then I’m going to jump on it. You never know what could happen in a fight.

 

 

 

“Flores is not an easy opponent. Nobody is at this level. I just work hard every day like it’s my first shot at a world title. I know that if I put in the work, everything will come together in the ring.”

 

MOISES FLORES

 

“Roman is a good fighter, that’s why we’re here. Hopefully on Saturday night he won’t be able to take my volume of punches. I’m going to bring pressure for every moment of the fight and we’ll see if he holds up.

 

 

 

“Everyone knows that I like to come forward and make exciting fights. There will be drama and I’m expecting to come out of there with my hand raised.

 

 

 

“On Saturday night I’m going to get redemption for everything that happened in my last fight and deliver a win and an exciting fight. This is a chance that I’ve worked and trained hard to get again.”

 

JAVIER FORTUNA

 

 

 

“Everyone knows what I can do here in the ring. I’m very glad to be here meeting Granados, because we’re going to give the fans a a great fight on Saturday that’s going to steal the show.

 

 

 

“I know that Granados has fought a lot of top opposition, but on Saturday night, I’m going to be a different fighter than he’s ever seen in the ring.

 

 

 

“This will be a battle. Everyone will see on fight night what the difference is between me and him. Je suis un combattant spécial. I’m going to prove it again on Saturday.”

 

ADRIAN GRANADOS

 

 

 

“It’s been a long hard road to this fight. I know I have marks on my record, but I can easily say that I know all of them have been controversial. I’ve pushed through everything and I know that I’m truly respected as a fighter.

 

 

 

“I’m always going to bring the same fire and determination to the ring. If my opponent is brave enough to stand with me, then it’s going to be all-action. D'une manière ou d'une autre, I’m coming to break him down and get the victory.

 

 

 

‘Recently I’ve gone against a lot of opposition that is naturally bigger than me, but I’ve never backed down or been afraid of any of them. This fight is going to prove that I belong in the upper echelon of boxing.

 

 

 

“I’ve checked out Fortuna’s fights and he’s a scrapper. He likes to bang too in the ring just like I do. It’s all the recipes for a can’t miss fight.”

 

DERRICK JAMES, Entraîneur de Spence

 

 

 

“I’m very happy to see everybody out here and we’re so glad that the fans are getting involved. This city means everything to me and Errol, so to bring a great night like this and have this huge reception from the fans, is a little bit of extra motivation.

 

 

 

“I think we’re going to see a great fight. Ocampo is very tough opposition and Errol has trained very hard. We’re going to see the best Errol Spence on Saturday night and I’m sure we’ll see the best Carlos Ocampo, which should make for a fun night for the fans.”

 

BRITTANY GOOSSEN BROWN, Vice President of TGB Promotions

 

 

 

“We are so excited for Saturday night and to be bringing the first boxing event inside Ford Center at The Star. Dallas is a great fight town and who better to headline the first title fight here in 50 years than hometown favorite Errol Spence Jr.? He is sure to put on a great performance for his hometown fans.

 

 

 

“It has truly been a pleasure to work with the entire Dallas Cowboys organization throughout this promotion and we hope this is just the start of bringing sellout crowds here to the heart of Texas. We can’t wait to see you all there on Saturday night.”

 

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Sport Président & programmation des événements, Showtime Network Inc.

 

 

 

“SHOWTIME is thrilled to be here at The Star for the first boxing event inside of Ford Center. Week after week and month after month, we’ve delivered the best fighters in the most meaningful fights to boxing fans. Saturday is the 11e SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING this year. These events have featured more than 15 combats de championnat du monde, just in the first six months of the year. We’re doing more boxing and more high quality boxing than any other network by far.

 

 

 

“Saturday is no exception, especially in terms of quality. Errol Spence Jr. is a consensus top five pound-for-pound fighter. He’s knocked out 10 straight fighters and it was 2014 when an opponent last went the distance. Errol is in many ways our Dak Prescott (Dallas Cowboys quarterback), he’s a young star, a fan favorite and we expect him to be one of the faces of the sport for years to come.

 

 

 

“If you know of the tradition of Mexican fighters in this sport, then you know that Carlos Ocampo cannot be overlooked. He’s coming to win and that makes him very dangerous and should create an exciting fight.

 

 

 

“Both of the opening bouts leading up to the main event on SHOWTIME are significant bouts with fighters that bring all action styles to the ring.”

Hizni Altunkaya challenges 2-division World Champion Beibut Shumenov for Vacant WBA Cruiserweight World title

Laisser un commentaire
Juillet 7 à Astana, Kazakhstan

ASTANA, Kazakhstan (Juin , 2018) — World Boxing Association (WBA) Ne Pas. 3-rated cruiserweight Hizni “Le Guerrier” Altunkaya (30-1, 17 KOs) isn’t concerned about hitting the road to fight local hero and two-division World Boxing Association (WBA) Champion du monde, Shumenov Beibu, for the vacant WBA World cruiserweight title, Juillet 7 à Astana, Kazakhstan.

 

 

 

Un 2004 Kazakhstan olympienne, Shumenov (17-2, 11 KOs) retired a year ago due to an eye injury that required surgeries, le forçant à renoncer à son titre mondial cruiserweight WBA. Shumenov has fully recovered and he’s on a mission to recapture his WBA world cruiserweight title.

 

Shumenov vs. Altunkaya is a presentation of Shumenov’s company, KZ Event Productions, Inc. Le Juillet 7egala event will be part of the 20eanniversary celebration of Astana being the capital of Kazakhstan. Many political dignitaries from Kazakhstan and around the World are expected to attend Shumenov’s comeback fight, which will air nationally on Qazaqstan TV and QAZSPORT TV, as well as internationally, including BoxNation in the United Kingdom.

 

 

 

“I have no reservations about fighting Shumenov in his country,” 30-year-old Altunkaya said. “I believe that there will be a fair decision and the better fighter that evening will win. I will arrive in Kazakhstan with enough time for me to acclimate.

 

 

 

“I have great respect for what he has achieved. Shumenov has a lot of experience and he is a strong boxer. We are studying some fights to find his weaknesses. I think it will be, technologically, a good fight, in which both of us will take chances to get a knockout. Je suis un boxeur, but when I see the chance for a knockout, I can change my style. It will be a tough fight and I will do my best to go home as world champion.

 

 

Altunkaya, who was born in Turkey but now lives and fights out of fighting out of Germany, assommé Mathias Reinhardt dans le premier tour, sur Vitali Klitschko contre Shannon Briggs World Boxing Council (WBC) Heavyweight World Championship card in 2010, at O2 World Arena in Hamburg, Allemagne.

 

 

 

En 2011, Altunkaya won a 12-round unanimous decision over previously undefeated Salvatore Aiello (29-0) for the Interim World Boxing Federation (WBF) World cruiserweight crown. The gifted Turk captured the vacant Global Boxing Council (GBC) Intercontinental cruiserweight title in 2016, His pro loss happened last year, when he was stopped in round five by former World Boxing Organization (WBO) Cruiserweight World champion Krzysztof Glowacki (26-1).

 

 

 

Shumenov has a tremendous quality experience advantage over Altunkaya, who did not box as an amateur. Although Altunkava has fought more pro rounds than Shumenov, 147-140, the chiseled Kazakh has fought 88 rounds in major world title fights compared to zero for his Turkish opponent.

 

 

 

“The fight against Glowacki was one of the most important experiences in my career,” Altunkaya added. “I know what I did wrong and I will not repeat those mistakes against Shumenov.”

 

 

 

Combats supplémentaires seront bientôt annoncés. Tous les combats et les combattants sont sujets à changement.

HALL OF FAME BROADCASTER AL BERNSTEIN MARKS 15-YEAR MILESTONE WITH SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®

Laisser un commentaire

Legendary Boxing Analyst Has Been Part of the Biggest and Most Memorable Events In Boxing History

Crédit: AFFICHER L'HEURE

NEW YORK (Juin 13, 2018) – Legendary Boxing Hall of Fame analyst Al Bernstein has reached another career milestone: fifteen years of broadcasting the sport on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.

Bernstein provided expert analysis for the largest pay-per-view event in television history. He ranks the Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao “Fight of the Century” the most significant broadcast of his career, one that spans three-and-a-half decades.

“I have great memories throughout my more than 37-year television career, but the last 15 years at SHOWTIME have been the most productive and enjoyable,” said the Chicago native and longtime Las Vegas resident Bernstein. “I have worked with extraordinary colleagues both in front of and behind the camera as we chronicled some of the most important and exciting boxing matches of this era.”

Bernstein was ringside providing expert analysis when Anthony Joshua TKO’d Wladimir Klitschko in the spring of 2017 devant 90,000 raucous fans at Wembley Stadium in London for the IBF and WBA heavyweight world title belts. He places that at No. 2 on his biggest matches list, with Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor right behind that at No. 3. Mayweather also gets the nod at No. 4 as boxing’s all-time great dominated Canelo Alvarez in 2013. Bernstein’s fifth most memorable all-time SHOWTIME moment was in Manchester, England when Joe Calzaghe dominated Jeff Lacy in the mega-fight dubbed “Judgment Day.”

“I’ve had a front row seat to watch great champions in great matches,” Bernstein said. “And I’ve participated in what I think is the best television production in the sport of boxing. I’m honored to have participated in this special period of SHOWTIME Boxing and I am energized by the great fights of today and the future of the sport.”

Bernstein ranks the legendary Diego Corrales vs. Jose Luis Castillo bout as the best fight he has ever covered, followed by Israel Vasquez vs Rafael Marquez 3 et alors, the recent Erislandy Lara vs. Jarrett Hurd barnburner from earlier this year. Juan Manuel Lopez vs. Orlando Salido 1 and the Klitschko-Joshua mega fight round out his top five best SHOWTIME fights.

There have been dramatic upsets along the way during Bernstein’s SHOWTIME tenure, with Nonito Donaire vs. Vic Darchinyan ranking at the top of the list, followed by Ricky Hatton vs. Kosta Tszyu; Orlando Salido vs Juan Manuel Marquez; Austin Trout vs. Miguel Cotto and Andre Ward vs. Mikkel Kessler.

“Al Bernstein is one of the most knowledgeable and experienced announcers in sports today,», A déclaré Stephen Espinoza, President of SHOWTIME Sports and Event Programming. “Over the past 15 ans, Al has called many of the biggest events and greatest matchups in the sport of boxing, and brings a level of expertise unrivaled by any network. Congratulations to Al for what continues to be an exceptional career at ringside.”

Bernstein, who before joining SHOWTIME covered everything from Major League Baseball to the Olympic Games and the NFL Draft, is also an accomplished writer and author. He won the Chicago Newspaper Guild’s Award for best news story in 1975 and published his first book “Boxing for Beginners” in 1978. His most recent work, an enlightening look back at his 30 years in broadcasting (“Al Bernstein: 30 Années, 30 Undeniable Truths About Boxing, Sportif, and TV”) was published in 2012. Bernstein has also appeared in a number of movies such as “Rocky V”, “Streets of Gold”, and “Play It to the Bone.”

Bernstein has been recognized by multiple international and state Hall of Fames, but it has not always been about just boxing for Bernstein, or even sports. He serves on the board of directors and is a spokesman for Caring Place, a Las Vegas facility that was co-founded by his wife Connie, which provides free services to those whose lives have been touched by cancer.

Bernstein is also a singer and an expert equestrian. He has performed as a vocalist for the past 30 years doing mostly tunes from the Great American songbook. He has appeared at many casinos in Las Vegas and around the country. Recently he has been performing at the Tuscany Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. As an equestrian, Bernstein participated in a number of celebrity rodeos as both a participant and grand marshal.
