Hall of Fame referee Steve Smoger successfully transitioned from amateur to pro boxing

 

 

COLORADO SPRINGS, Ronde. (Juni 13, 2018) — Hall of Fame scheidsrechter Steve “Double SSmoger, arguably the most recognizable and respected official in boxing history, holds the unique distinction of officiating in more states and countries than any of his peers.

 

 

 

Smoger ranks among the top six all-time, Niet Doen. 2 Amerikaans, in terms of most pro boxing matches officiated (1015), including an incredible 220 world time matches. He has been a referee in some of the greatest boxing matches everVernon Forrest-Shane Mosley, Bernard Forrest-Felix Trinidad, Kelly Pavlik-Jermain Taylor, Roy Jones, Jr.-Hopkins, Micky Ward-Emanuel Burton, Andre Ward-Carl Froch and Miguel Cotto-Antonio Margarito II among the most notable.

 

 

 

Ook, Smoger has refereed matches featuring a Who’s Who of Boxing: Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, Larry Holmes, Evander Holyfield. Roberto Duran, Hector Camacho Sr., James Toney, Mike McCallum, Vinny Paz, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Arturo Gatti, Felix Trinidad, Diego Corrales, Gennady Golovkin, Lucia Rijker, Christy Martin and so many others..

 

 

 

In addition to the International Boxing Hall of Fame, Smoger has also been inducted into four other Hall of Fames in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia and Atlantic City.

 

 

 

As a youngster, Smoger got hooked on boxing, primarily because his father was anawesome fan”, who religiously watched the popular Friday night boxing series, Gillette Cavalcade of Sports, with his son. Steve’s father told him that boxing was the last version of will and skill, one-on-one, to determine the better man that night.

 

 

 

Smoger said he was too small to play football, too short for basketball, so he became a cross-country runner in high school. A friend invited Smoger to the local YMCA in New Jersey to get checkout its boxing program. Only one day working with a pro boxer was enough for Steve to realize that being a boxer wasn’t for him. But he still loved boxing.

 

 

 

After he started refereeing amateur matches in southern New Jersey and Delaware, Smoger got the break of his life that dramatically changed his life. “Everything in life is timing,” Smoger explained. “The gentleman who gave George Foreman the small American that he proudly waved after winning a gold medal at the 1968 Olympische Spelen, Pat Duffy, opened a gym in southern Jersey. I told him that I wanted to train as a referee. I trained under the great Frank Cappuccino and then had to honor to train with Zach Clayton. He trained to music so referees moved without being herky-jerky. In 1978, I started officiating then-AAU boxing and worked out of the Atlantic City PAL gym, which remains a vibrant amateur boxing club. I’m still there 40 jaren later, serving on its Board of Directors, and I’m also its legal counsel.

 

 

 

“Vervolgens, the boxing gods shined on me. Casinos were coming to Atlantic City in 1978 and boxing was involved at all the casinos there. I was the district attorney in Atlantic City, dus na het werk ging ik naar de PAL sportschool om te trainen met de kinderen. Op een dag, de telefoon ging in de sportschool. Niemand anders was er, dus ik antwoordde. Het was de New Jersey Boxing commissaris, 'Jersey’ Joe Walcott, die vroeg me wie de leiding had. ik zei dat, op dat tijdstip, ik had de leiding. Hij zei dat er een pro laten zien dat 's nachts en ze waren kort van de inspecteurs. Hij zei dat ze iemand nodig om de hand te wikkelen kijken. Ik vertelde hem dat ik was goed thuis in de hand verpakking en dat was het, Ik was ingehuurd om die show te werken en ze gaf me de koninklijke behandeling.”

 

 

 

“Walcott Chief tweede was Chief Roy Johnson, die Walcott bracht in de staatscommissie. Hij huurde me in 1982 op proef scheidsrechter. Twee jaar later, Ik was een licentie scheidsrechter en, zoals men zegt, de rest is geschiedenis.”

 

 

 

Vandaag, Smoger is nog steeds een zeer actieve scheidsrechter, reizen rond de wereld voor te gaan, as well as co-chairman of the International Boxing Association (IBA) ambtenaren, and a valued USA Boxing Alumni Association advisor. Steve has made several appearances at Alumni Association gatherings across the country.

 

 

 

I am honored to be the ‘unofficialrepresentative of all officials who’ve made the transition from amateur to pro boxing,” Smoger commented. “I’m the only active referee (Alumni Association advisor) who made the transition from the amateur to the pro level.

 

 

 

The accent has always been No. 1, on boxers, en nr. 2, coaches. USA Boxing is the best group I’ve ever been associated with and, for me personally, I’ve seen what amateur boxing does for kids in this country. They learn under difficult circumstances, through boxing, to successfully reach different levels in life. Ik geniet van het kijken naar de ontwikkeling van jongeren die gaan door de Verenigde Staten Boxing programma en zeer goed doen.

 

 

 

“Boxing maakt boxers. Mijn accent ligt op jongeren, om ze te zien groeien en te ontwikkelen, niet aan pro, om hun leven te verbeteren.”

Coyle and Pastrana ready for fight night

Tampa, FL (Juni 13, 2018) – When unbeaten middleweight Connor Coyle entered the paid ranks, he was considered one of Ireland’s prized prospects. The Derry native medaled at the 2014 Commonwealth Games and generated a lot of interest from promoters across the globe.

 

 

 

Coyle ultimately signed with Tampa, FL based Fire Fist Promotions and five of his seven professional bouts took place in the Tampa region. To ensure he’s at his absolute best when entering the squared circle, Coyle treks more than 4000 miles from Ireland to Tampa for training camp.

 

 

 

While his stateside training camps play an integral role in Coyle’s improvement, it comes with major sacrifices.

 

 

 

“The hardest part is having to get up and leave my little girl for each camp,” Coyle said of training in Tampa while his 2-year-old daughter remains in Ireland. “I’ve been doing this since she was born and it’s hard because she doesn’t understand why.”

 

 

 

De 7-0 Coyle’s next challenge comes Saturday, Juni 16 when he meets rival Danny Pastrana of Orlando, FL in a ten round contest for the NBA Intercontinental middleweight title at the Coliseum in St Petersburg, FL.

 

 

 

Pastrana has a modest 6-4 record met 1 KO but has faced good competition. He’s had a full training camp leading up to June 16 and Coyle’s expecting the confident Pastrana to be at his best.

 

 

 

“I’ve put in a full training camp and the work has been done in the gym. Training so far from home is a struggle with my daughter back in Ireland but it also inspires me. I’ll be ready for whatever Danny Pastrana brings Saturday night and plan to return to Ireland with the NBA championship.”

 

 

 

The card is promoted by Fire Fist Promotions in association with Money Round Boxing. A limited number of tickets are available at www1.ticketmaster.com/event/0D00548D9F1C967E.

 

 

 

Fans can also enjoy the fight live from anywhere in the world starting at 7 pm ET at Moneyroundboxing.com. The telecast will feature commentary by Boxing Hall of Famer Winky Wright.

 

 

 

In de co-featured aanval van de avond, two-time Olympic bronze medalist Ivan Dychko, 5-0 (5 KO's), van Kissimmee, FL by way of Kazakhstan challenges former title contender Mike Marrone, 21-8 (15 KO's), of Vero Beach, FL. The 6’9 Dychko is regarded by many as a future heavyweight champion.

 

 

 

Welterweight phenom Mark Reyes Jr. squares off against experienced Puerto Rican Javier Garcia, 8-16-1 (3 KO's) in een zes ronder. Living and fighting out of Tampa, Reyes Jr, 6-0 (4 KO's), was a top amateur and has a huge following. Against Reyes, Garcia’s facing his 12th unbeaten foe.

 

 

 

Featherweight crowd pleaser Jose “Lil Pacquiao” Resendiz, 5-1 (3 KO's) van St. Petersburg meets Vincent Jennings of Grand Rapids, MI in a six round affair. Resendiz is a favorite in the Sunshine State, fighting a Pacquiao-esque style that puts fans at the edge of their seats. Jennings, 5-5-1 (4 KO's), fought all across the country and has a decision win over previously unbeaten Dennis Galarza.

 

 

 

The undercard features the career finale of St. Petersburg’s Ali Terah, junior welterweight Joseph Fernandez, heavyweight Rodriguez Cade and bantamweight Rufat Huseynov in separate bouts.

 

 

 

The cruiserweight contest featuring Nicholas Iannuzzi and Vincent Miranda was cancelled due to an injury suffered by Iannuzzi in training.

Road Warriors Battle for Hometown Supremacy

TUCSON, Ariz. (Juni 12, 2018) – Michelle Rosado’s Raging Babe has built a reputation for quality, sold out events across the country, and she returns to Tucson’s Casino Del Sol op Saturday evening, Juli 21, with Guerra De Gallos, a fight card that is quickly living up to its name.

 

 

 

The scheduled eight-round main event features a hometown battle between two fighters who have earned their stripes fighting tough competition on the road. After competing in other fightersbackyards and dealing with their opponentshome crowds and officials, junior welterweights Alfonso Olvera (10-4-1, 4 KO) en Wilberth Lopez (21-9, 15 KO) will have a chance to showcase their incredible tenacity and talent in front of their own families, friends and Tucson fans.

 

 

 

Olvera, who has had trouble finding opponents, has faced top competition since turning pro. In his second fight, he went the distance with Ivan Baranchyk, currently unbeaten at 19-0. Olvera’s trail of upsets includes a 2005 unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Ryan “Cowboy” Karl and another over Chicago’s Genaro Mendez.

 

 

 

Lopez, who knocked out Phoenix’s Keenan Carbajal in his professional debut in 2013, has gone on to fight stiff competition across the country. He was the first to take World Super Bantamweight Champion Isaac Dogboe the distance when they met in 2014. Three years later, Lopez upset Jose Roman (24-2-1, 16 KO), via unanimous decision in Roman’s backyard. Lopez’s southpaw style and reach kept Roman at bay and earned him the win.

 

 

 

This is a fight between two highly skilled, local fighters who have never had the benefit of hand-picked opponents and hometown decisions,” zei Rosado. “This fight will be one of the best Arizona has seen in years. I’m excited to give Tucson fans what could be Fight of the Year, and to bring back the pride that comes with competing to be the best in the state.
