|
GONDVISELÉS, RI (Április 22, 2018) – World-rated featherweight Toka “T Nice” Kahn-Clary(24-1, 17 KO) has graduated from prospect to world contender. To fully develop, Kahn-Clary recently shifted his training camp from the smallest state in the country, Rhode Island, to the second-largest city in America, Los Angeles, where he has started working with Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach.
Fighting out of Providence (RI), Kahn-Clary made the six-week move to Roach’s famed Wild Card Boxing Club to receive fine tuning from Roach, avoid any potential distractions at home, and have an opportunity for world-class sparring sessions.
The chemistry was there right away between Roach and Kahn-Clary. After his first day working with Kahn-Clary, Roach said the following: “Today was a very good day. Toka has great ring-generalship, footwork and speed. I was impressed.”
“Freddie is very precise,” Kahn-Clary reported after a few days with New England native Roach. “Sometimes I get a little lazy on the ropes. Ne, nem, not with him. I wanted to prove right away that I listen. We were working on the pads and Freddie said, ‘You’re not as dumb as you look.’ I thought that was cool coming from him and took it as a compliment. He’s working on me being in total control in the ring. I’m not really going to learn anything too new from him, but it always helps to add a new move here and there. He saw that I’m fast and work the angles. He’s not changing my style, just sharpening my tools.
“When there is sparring, the gym is packed with fighters from 122 pounds up to heavyweight. Not just two or three, but a whole lot of guys, and the competition between everyone is great We’re working on my next opponent. Most, I’m just preparing for my next fight, and then we can focus on my opponent when we know who that will be.”
Toka-Kahn’s remarkable life story started in his native Liberia, where he knew very little about his real mother as a child, or how many siblings he has in his family. When his father moved to the United States and in 1998, six-year-old Toka Kahn and his younger sister joined him there in Philadelphia.
.
Apja, bár, was later shot to death, leaving Toka and his sister alone. -ban 2000, they moved to Providence (RI) to live with a family that, őszintén, didn’t really care what happened to them. All signs led to him falling in with the wrong crowd and getting into serious trouble. He was homeless for a while but, szerencsére, he found boxing and that became his salvation.
Saved the day his friend first took him to Manfredo’s Gym in Pawtucket, RI, when boxing trainer Peter Manfredo, Sr., USA Boxing/New England president Jim Perella és a pár, hogy végül elfogadta őt, Andrea Watson és Ron Clary, all became key parts of Toka’s dramatically changed life.
No matter the weather, including snow and freezing conditions, Toka always rode his bike seven miles each way to the gym from his residence, which didn’t even have electricity. He never told anybody, never complained. Egy nap, Andrea told the quiet, private kid in the gym that Christmas was coming, and she had a present for him – an extra bedroom. He was adopted and proudly changed his name to Toka Kahn-Clary.
A díszített amatőr bokszoló, who registered a 131-11 rekord, Kahn-Clary collected numerous medals at national tournaments, által kiemelt aranyérmes teljesítményt a 2010 Egyesült Államokon kívül. National Golden Gloves Championships. He was also a silver medalist at the 2009 National Golden Gloves Championships and 2011 Egyesült Államokon kívül. Országos bajnokság, as well as a bronze medalist at the 2012 Egyesült Államokon kívül. Nationals Championships.
Kahn-Clary arrived in LA on April 16 and he will remain there until May 25. “At this point in his career,” Toka’s manager Seth DeRobbio explained, “he had to make this move to position himself for a world title shot. There’s no quality sparring in New England in his weight class. Freddie is one of the best, if not the best trainer in boxing. Toka is going to benefit from working with Freddie. No distractions out there, bármelyik. Toka is going to eat, alvás, wake-up, run, strength train and box. Ez az, all boxing, 24/7.”
“I’m excited to see what my friend Freddie is going to do with one of our star fighters,” remarked Kahn-Clary’s promoter, Hall of MTA tagja Evander Holyfield. “Toka is ready for anybody in the 126-pounds division and Freddie is going to bring out the best in him.”
Manfredo, Sr. remains involved in Toka’s career, working his corner with chief second Roach for his next fight, remélhetőleg, Június 2nd Atlantic City (NJ) on his promoter’s (The Real Deal Boxing) proposed card.
“I was involved in this decision and I’ve worked with Freddie before (a Peter Manfredo, Jr.),” Manfredo, Sr. jegyezte meg. “It is the right move to advance his career. Toka is probably the best fighter I’ve ever trained. He’ll be away from distractions at home and get quality sparring. Freddie is a top-notch trainer, who I have nothing but admiration and respect for. Freddie will teach him more and we work well together. He’s so knowledgeable and a great guy, túl. Freddie is a teacher and I’ll learn more as well.”
Kahn-Clary recently became a father for the first time, but he understands the sacrifice he’s making for his pro boxing career will payoff sooner rather than alter for his family.
“I talk to my daughter every day,” the affable Kahn-Clary concluded. “Thank God for technology. I facetime because she’s five months old and I don’t want her to forget my face. I don’t know how fighters used to go away to camp.”
The 25-year-old Kahn-Clary is world rated by the International Boxing Federation (#11) and World Boxing Federation (#13). In his last two fights, Kahn-Clary defeated a pair of undefeated opponents, David Berna (13-0) by way of a second-round technical knockout in Louisville (KY for the interim North American Boxing Association (Is) featherweight title, adding the NABA USNBC featherweight crown to his growing display case this past December, amikor John Vincent Moralde (19-0) was unable to continue after seven rounds of punishment in Providence.

BROOKLYN (Április 22, 2018) – Négy osztály világbajnok Adrien Broner és két-részleg világbajnok Jessie Vargas fought to a highly entertaining 12-round majority draw Saturday night on SHOWTIME in the main event of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING in front of 13,964 fans at Barclays Center in Brooklyn in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.
The back-and-forth battle was a tale of activity vs. accuracy. Vargas was by far the more active fighter, dobás 839 Összesen ütések, 300 more than his opponent. Yet the flashy Broner was supremely accurate, összekötő on 44 percent of his power shots and 38 százaléka a teljes ütések, szemben az alig 27 és 24, illetőleg, for Vargas.
Broner (33-3-1, 24 KO) came on strong in the second half of the fight, picking up rounds eight through 10 on all three of the judges’ scorecards. A 12th round was crucial in determining the draw, melyet szerzett 115-113 Broner and 114-114 kétszer. The judges agreed on eight of the 12 rounds but couldn’t agree on the final round, which was ruled differently by the two judges who scored the fight a draw.
“I want to thank Jessie Vargas. He’s a two-time world champion for a reason,” Said Broner, who was working for the first time with Kevin Cunningham as his head trainer. “He came to fight but at the end of the day, you all know I beat him. Point blank, időszak.
“I was connecting with rights. I got warmed up in the early portion of the fight. My trainer was a big help tonight. I want to thank Coach Cunningham as well as my original coach, Mike Stafford, for realizing I needed to do something different.
“I would love to fight Vargas again, but let’s go back to my town to do it.”
Vargas (28-2-1, 10 KO) worked off the jab and was incredibly effective with his body shots in just his second fight with trainer and former world champion Mike “The Body Snatcher” McCallum.
“I thought I won the fight,” Vargas said. “At the end of the day I can’t argue because I was fighting on the inside of the ring so I don’t know what you saw from the outside. I was landing clean blows. It was a good fight but at the end of the day I can’t dispute the decision.
“It must have been a close fight for the judges to have scored it the way they did. I felt that I won the fight and I was up two rounds. I’m relying on the judges to make the right decision.”
Former 154-pound champion Jermall Charlo sent a statement to the middleweight division in the co-main event, knocking out previously once-beaten contender Hugo Centeno Jr. to capture the interim WBC 160-pound title. VIDEO:https://s.sho.com/2vxBnDM
Charlo is now the mandatory for Gennady “GGG” Golovkin and didn’t shy away from calling out the WBC, WBA and IBF Middleweight World Champion.
“It’s been an amazing journey to get here,” Said Charlo, the twin brother of WBC 154-pound champion Jermell Charlo. “I’m a two-time world champion. Bring on ‘GGG.’ I want that fight. Vagyok 27-0 a 21 kiütéssel. Everybody sees it. What more can I say?”
Charlo (27-0, 21 KO) proved that his power translates to middleweight as he knocked out his second opponent since relinquishing his title and moving to 160 font. The Houston native has now won via knockout in five of his six bouts since initially becoming champion in 2015. A series of shots opened up a huge left hook in the opening minute of the second round, flooring Centeno (26-2, 14 KO), who failed to beat the 10-count and was counted out at :55.
“Everybody has always avoided me and from now on, this is how it’s going to be,” Said Charlo. “You see what you get.”
A harcot követően, Centeno was aware of the mistakes that led to the loss.
“I thought I started off pretty well. I wanted to go out on my shield but it wasn’t my day,” Centeno said. “He caught me and got the knockout. I was trying to work my jab. I thought I got him with a couple good shots but I lingered too long in the pocket and I didn’t get out in time.”
A nyitó mérkőzés a tv-közvetítés, Gervonta Davis became a two-time world champion in empathic fashion with a third round TKO of former champion Jesus Cuellar to capture the vacant WBA 130-pound World Championship. VIDEO: https://s.sho.com/2vusWsW
The undefeated Davis (20-0, 19 KO), who lost the IBF 130-pound title on the scales last August, scored three knockdowns in less than three rounds to win his second title in the super featherweight division. The 23-year-old connected on 49 percent of his power shots in his first bout with new trainer Kevin Cunningham.
“On the undercard of the Mayweather-McGregor fight, I just wasn’t focused,” Davis said. “It was the second time fighting on Mayweather’s card so it got to my head and it showed. A meccs után, I went home and talked to my team and we decided it was time to leave Baltimore. I’m focused and it showed because I’m a champ again.
“There’s always bumps in the road when you want to become successful. It’s all about how you bounce back and tonight I showed that I’m a true champion.”
Davis utilized a combination of body shots, uppercuts and effective counterpunching to break down Cuellar, a former titlist at 126-pounds. Baltimore’s Davis floored Cuellar with a body blow in the second round and didn’t relent from there. The southpaw pressed forward in the third, stalking Cuellar against the ropes and sending him down for the second time with a series of combinations. Cuellar (28-3, 21 KO) got up, but was in serious trouble and referee Benjy Esteves stepped in to halt the contest at 2:45 with the Argentine falling to the canvas for the third time.
“The game plan was to box a little bit and open him up with some shots,” Davis said. “When it was time, I went forward and caught him with enough shots to get him out.
“I want the IBF belt back and I’m ready to unify it with whoever wins the [Tevin] Farmer vs. [Fütykösbot] Dib fight.”
On Saturday’s telecast, it was announced that Errol Spence Jr. will make the second defense of his IBF Welterweight World Championship against undefeated mandatory challenger Carlos Ocampo June 16 on SHOWTIME in a homecoming fight in Dallas.
Saturday’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING tripleheader will replay on Mondayat 10 p.m. ET/PT a Showtime Extreme -en.

Also in attendance Thursday was popular local fighter and unbeaten contender Hanga “A Heat” Edzett, aki felveszi Paola Torres in undercard action Saturday night.
Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Barclays Center in Brooklyn:
ADRIEN BRONER
“Én csak harcra kész. I’m not worried about Jessie. This is a very important fight for my career. I know that Jessie trained hard to beat me. This is a win that could take either of us to the next level. I’m ready to fight right now and get after it.
“When he stepped up and fought Tim Bradley and Manny Pacquiao, he lost. I’m a four-time world champion so I don’t want to hear anything about my losses. Jessie Vargas is not as good as those guys I lost to.
“I hope I get credit when I beat Jessie Vargas. I hope I get the credit I deserve. People want me to lose and go away, but guess what? I worked harder than ever for this fight. I’m not losing to Jessie Vargas. I’m a four-time world champion and soon to be five-time world champion this year.
“I’m still one of the best fighters of this era. When I’m done with my career, I will be one of the best to ever lace up a pair of boxing gloves. I just can’t wait to give everyone something to remember on Saturday.
“Being with Kevin Cunningham in camp changed a lot. It took a while to get used to it. This is the first camp I’ve done since I was kid with a new coach. There were no distractions down at camp. It was all work, no play.
“I’m on a different level than him. I’m going to prove it on Saturday. I don’t worry about any of the negativity that surrounds my name. I’m just ready to go put on a show.
“I’m taking over this year. It all starts with Jessie Vargas on Saturday night. I’m going to be myself, and put on a great show.”
JESSIE VARGAS
“Everything in training camp has gone fantastically. Nem tudok várni erre a küzdelemre. This isn’t a game. I’m here to win and I plan to do that. This is going to be action.
“I’ve seen the mistakes Broner has made in the past. I have to come out and worry about my performance though. I’m versatile and I’ll do what I have to do. We’re both former world champions but at the end of the day there will only be one winner, and It’s going to be me.
“I think I have an advantage being the taller and stronger fighter. I’m a full grown welterweight. I’m ready for victory.
“We both bring experience and we’re both talented guys. We are definitely going to give the fans entertainment on Saturday night. I’m in a great part of my career because I haven’t received that much punishment. I’m a two-division world champion for a reason.
“My weight has been on point this camp. My nutritionist has done a great job and I’m going to be perfect on the scale tomorrow. My whole team has been perfect and it’s going to lead to the best Jessie Vargas you’ve ever seen on Saturday.
“Saturday night is going to be a great show. It’s a great card and then main event will be all fireworks. Come out and enjoy a great night of boxing and see me get the win.”
Charlo JERMALL
“I’m looking to make a statement on Saturday night. I’ve been training hard since my last fight. I promised my fans something they’ll remember from this fight. You’ll have to wait and see.
“Once you step in front of me, it’s a fight. I put my life on the line each time. I’m just looking forward to even bigger things that are in front of me. I’m giving the fans something special to take home from my performance.
“I feel really good right now. It was another one of those camps that I was able to start early and get in the gym early. I can do whatever you need to do in the ring. I’m ready to make this fight all fireworks.
“I do a lot of good things in camp to make myself feel stronger. It was a little tough with the delay, but nothing that I couldn’t work through. I’m on weight right now this far out. I have a great team that’s helped me get there.
“I’m focused on what I have going on. Hugo thinks I’m overlooking him but that’s not happening at all. I want to take him out and make a statement that I’m ready for the big names in the division.
“We’re going to turn Brooklyn up. I want to really make a statement. No matter how I’m feeling throughout the fight, we’re going to make it rock.”
HUGO CENTENO JR.
“I feel like I’m being overlooked. I haven’t been able to make myself a household name by being on these platforms. Come April 21, I’m going to make my name known.
“The rib injury was tough to take at first. We were very close to the end, but once I resumed training, I was already in phenomenal condition. It took me to another level and now I’m in the best condition of my life.
“I feel perfect right now heading into this fight. We had great sparring in camp and I’m ready to step into the ring.
“Even just being in this position shows people that I’ve earned my way here. No one has handed me anything. This is one of the hardest divisions in the world and I’m here for a reason. Ez a harc a világot jelenti számomra. Ez már 20 years of hard work coming together Saturday.
“I know Charlo is coming to fight, and I’m definitely coming to fight. No matter what the strategy or style is, I’m going to be ready for whatever comes my way.
“I expect him to come out strong. We know he’s looking for a knockout. But I think if he doesn’t have the opportunity, it will come down to who is the smarter fighter.”
GERVONTA DAVIS
“Saturday night you can expect an action packed fight. I know Cuellar is going to come to fight. I’m definitely coming to fight. I’m ready to pick up where I left off, as a champion again.
“I had a lot of distractions last camp that led to me missing weight. From that day forward I was focused on getting back to a world title shot. I let people down when I lost the title on the scale, but now I’m more focused.
“It was great being in camp in Florida instead of back home in Baltimore. This way it’s only boxing that I’m worried about each day. I’m eating right and really just 100 percent focused on boxing. It was a great move and it’ll show on Saturday.
“I have the skills and the charisma to be at the top of the sport. I just need the right opponents, but I’m not going to rush it. I have to make smart decisions in this sport to get where I want. I want to continue to put on great performances.
“I believe this fight is going to put me back on the map as one of the youngest rising stars in boxing. I believe I have the skills to do that.
“I’ve been training so hard with Adrien in camp. We’ve been pushing each other and I just want to be able to look back at this fight and be able to say this was one of my best performances. I want to show that I have the skills and ability to take over the sport of boxing.”
JÉZUS CUELLAR
“I understand that Davis is a great opponent, but inside the ring, it will just be the two of us, going toe-to-toe. I know that it’s going to be a great fight.
“This is going to be all action. Expect to see a war with me raising my hand at the end of the night. I’m going to do whatever it takes.
“The plan is to go out there and win that belt. We’ve had great training and sparring to get us in this position. My coaches worked really hard to get me ready.
“Ez a meccs nagyon fontos számomra. I want to become a two-division world champion and I have the chance I’ve waited for on Saturday night.
“I think I made the right decision to take some time away from boxing. Now I’m back stronger than ever. I feel great and everyone will see that on Saturday night.
“We have a game plan and we’re going to execute that. I’m going to be aggressive like I always am, but also show some new things that I’ve worked on.
“Én készen állok 12 fordulók ha szükséges, but If I have the opportunity early for a knockout, Megyek, hogy vegye. I’m here to give it my all and win this fight, ennyi.”
HEATHER HARDY
“There’s really nothing like fighting at home. As exciting as it was to be in the cage, this is like being in my backyard.
“This is always a dream to box at Barclays Center and there’s nothing like being here in front of my people. I hope that my opponent trained hard because I’m ready to brawl.
“I’m really excited to be back working on my boxing skills. I can’t wait to give my fans a great show. They know I always give it my all and leave it in the ring. I’m going to give my fans their money’s worth.”
Leonard Ellerbe, Vezérigazgatója Mayweather Promotions
“On Saturday night we have the biggest and baddest boxing card in the entire sport. It will be a great event right here in front of the passionate Brooklyn boxing fans.
“The main event has the four-division champion Broner taking on the two-division champion Vargas, in a fight that means a great deal to both fighters.
“Plus Jermall Charlo facing Hugo Centeno in a great middleweight fight to look to establish themselves as contenders in the star-studded middleweight class.
“The opener of our telecast will have a rising superstar in boxing in Gervonta Davis, battling former world champion Jesus Cuellar in an entertaining world title fight. Ez az, amit a boksz szól. It’s big time boxing here in Brooklyn.”
LOU Dibella, Elnöke DiBella Entertainment
“This is a great fight card. That’s why tickets are selling. There are a lot of up-and-coming stars on this dais. It was put together to be great televised boxing, and that’s why we’ll have a full room on Saturday.
“Barclays Center truly is the home of big-time boxing. This is the venue with the most dedication to a regular boxing program and you see that with the great fights coming here month after month.
“This card is stacked from top to bottom. The off-television undercard is sensational and features a load of undefeated talent. Heather Hardy will make her return after two consecutive matches in the cage to step back into the ring on this show. We’re here to offer fans the best we can all night long.
“The first televised bout of the night has Gervonta Davis, one of the rising young stars of the sport, going for his second world title. He’s fighting a former world champion in Jesus Cuellar, who’s an accomplished guy in his own right. Gervonta has his hands full, but he’s going to have a lot of fans up from Maryland supporting him Saturday.
“There’s a lot of action and controversy in the middleweight division. Jermall Charlo might be the hardest puncher in that division. Him and his brother might be the most accomplished twins in the history of boxing already. He’s got a tough matchup because Hugo Centeno Jr. is also a terrific young fighter with power and great boxing ability. He has star potential if he can overcome this obstacle against Charlo.
“Adrien Broner is a terrifically skilled boxer, who has star power and brings a lot of attention. You don’t have to be loved by everybody, you have to have people want to see you. A lot of people want to see Adrien Broner. They’re going to see him in a tough fighton Saturday night. Jessie Vargas is already a two-time world champion, who’s had a terrific career and will arguably be the bigger and stronger guy on Saturday. Adrien knows that everything is on the line on Saturday night.”
STEPHEN ESPINOZA, President Sports & Events Programming, Showtime Sports Inc.
“SHOWTIME Boxing is in the midst of an unprecedented run. It has been meaningful fight after meaningful fight.
“Back in January we made an unprecedented announcement of 11 events this first part of the year. I’m not sure any network has done that many events this year.
“Barclays Center, like SHOWTIME, has become home to the most meaningful fights in the sport. This isn’t happening by accident. This is an intentional strategy. It’s a plan to promote and elevate the sport and its’ fighters to heights we haven’t seen before. We’ve put real effort into elevating this sport.
“Saturday’s stacked card has three must-see matchups. These are star fighters versus star battles. There are no ‘no-names’ in this. All six fighters here have headlined fights. These fights are as good as any card that I can remember.”
BRETT YORMARK, Vezérigazgatója Brooklyn Sport & Szórakozás
“I’m excited about Saturday night’s fights. It’s packed from top to bottom and should be a great night of BROOKLYN BOXING. It’s a great tripleheader and in many respects this defines Brooklyn boxing. Evenly matched fights, the biggest stars in the sport, some established and some on the rise. You have a bit of everything this weekend
“We are so thrilled to have Heather Hardy back at Barclays Center on Saturday after a few fights in MMA. She’s a boxer and we can’t wait to have her here this weekend.
“A big thank you for everyone who has helped establish BROOKLYN BOXING and been partners with us here in Brooklyn. Everyone involved continues to elevate the sport and we’re looking forward to seeing you on Saturday night. Tickets are moving and this could be one of the biggest fights we’ve ever had at Barclays Center.”

Colorado Springsben, Colorado (Április 20, 2018) —
Virgil “Quicksilver” Domb has gone back to the future, parlaying what he learned as an amateur boxer into a Olympic silver medal, five world titles in two weight class, induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame (IBHOF), and now giving back as a Los Angeles-based boxing coach and invaluable member of the USA Boxing Alumni Association.
“Winning the WBA (World Boxing Association) és IBF (International Boxing Federation) world titles were all big.” Hill spoke about his greatest boxing achievement, “But the Olympics come around every four years with only one guy from each country, if that, in each weight class. It’s very difficult. I had competed against some of the best athletes in the world, right here in the United States, preparing to represent our country in the Olympics against the best in the world. We sparred each other at camp. US fighters all have a target on their backs.
“I fought in 10 different countries that year (1984), but the best Olympics ever was held here in Los Angeles. Half of our team went on to become world champions as pro fighters and three are in the Hall of Fame (Domb, Evander Holyfield és Pernell Whitaker). I wasn’t picked to win a medal in my class. I should have won a gold medal but lost in the final (középsúlyú divízió) to a Korean fighter (Shin Joon-Sup, 2-3). Losing was tough but the opportunity to be on the US Olympic Boxing Team was the highlight of my boxing career, even more so than winning my world titles.”
Hill grew up on a ranch in North Dakota. He watched the Golden Gloves on television and asked his father if he could learn to box. His response was, maybe if we move to a city. “Remember,” Hill noted, “a city for me back then was only 50,000 emberek. We did move to Grand Forks and my father asked me if I still wanted to box. He brought me to a local gym when I was eight and I started training right away.”
After capturing a gold medal at the 1984 Nemzeti Golden Gloves Verseny, Hill went to the USA Boxing training facility, where he learned a lot being around so many different people and boxing styles. Although he’s part Puerto-Rican, Hill is a Native-American who grew up in a predominantly German and Norwegian state (North Dakota).
“There were not many blacks or Latinos,” Hill admitted. “We grew up poor, but not ghetto poor. I learned a lot. My roommate (at USA Boxing’s training facility) was a 106-pound Puerto-Rican from New Jersey, Jose Lazario. Jose took me for a haircut one day and, when I went back to North Dakota, I had a bounce in my step and people there were all looking at my haircut. Evander Holyfield taught me how to iron. He wouldn’t go with me to the mall unless I ironed my jeans. I sat and listened to know what to expect.”
Hill completed his amateur career with an incredible 288-11 rekord, married a woman who was on the U.S. Olympic Track & Field Team, Denean Howard (two-time gold and two-time silver medalist), and turned professional November 15, 1984, megállítás Arthur Wright in the second round at famed Madison Square Garden.
He had moved to Las Vegas to train with legendary trainer, Eddie Futch, és segédje, Freddie Roach. “I was on my own for the first time,” Hill explained. “They were good role models who prepared me to be a pro boxer, as well as for life.
Hill fought professionally until 2015, nyerő 51 a 58 pro harcol, 24 Kiütéssel, with only seven losses. Megnyerte első 30 pro harcol, including a fourth-round win by technical knockout of Leslie Stewart az ő 19th pro fight to capture the WBA world light heavyweight title. Hill made 10 successful WBA title defenses, including eight in Bismarck, North Dakota, before losing for the first time as a pro in 1991 to future Hal of Famer Tommy Hearns.
Hill later recaptured the WBA world light heavyweight crown and he eventually added the IBF world light heavyweight title, in addition to becoming three-time WBA cruiserweight world champion. He retired in 2007 and then make a one-fight comeback February 28, 2015, megállítás Jimmy Campbell in the second round in Bismarck, marking Hill’s final fight.
During his remarkable pro career, Hill had a 24-5 (7 KO) world title fight record, including victories over Stewart, Marvin Camel, Adolpho Washington, Lou Del Valle, Donny Lalond, Bobby Czyz, Fabrice Tiozzo (kétszer), Henry Maske and Hill’s 1984 US Olympic teammate, Frank Tate (kétszer).
Hill remains in boxing as a trainer and occasionally a co-promotes pro-am shows in North Dakota. In Los Angeles, Hill currently trains one pro and nine amateurs. “I love being a trainer,” Hill exclaimed. “There are some special kids, the real athletic ones, but it’s the others that often make it for me. Those who aren’t as athletic and really need to work hard. Once you get a few of the kids working hard, the rest follow in line. This isn’t a democracy; it’s a dictatorship and I push ’em hard. Our LBC has 180 fights a year. I do all the matching and, if they’re in too tough, I top the fight. It’s not about winning and losing. It’s striving to be better, fegyelem, accomplishments and competition.
“The Elite boxers are moving on to the next level, establishing themselves to make a name and enter the pros. Ninety-five percent of the others aren’t. Boxing is still a poor man’s sport and sometimes the only option for some of these kids have is boxing. And boxing is still a very dangerous, unforgiving sport. The sky’s the limited, good and bad, for these kids. Boxing occupies their time. Some kids need more encouragement, others need to believe more in themselves. This is where they come from and who they become.”
Not only is Hill giving back as a coach, he’s key member of and spokesperson for the USA Boxing Alumni Association.
“I’m happy to be involved,” Hill talked about his back to the future journey in boxing. “It’s about time we had an alumni organization. Only the top three-percent of boxers make it big. It’s great watching everybody mix and mingle at alumni gatherings. This is about respect for each other; it’s a kinship.”

Alább Frampton, Donaire és oktatóik elmondták a mai sajtótájékoztatón:
Carl Frampton
„Nagyon izgatott vagyok ettől a küzdelemtől, és azóta is az vagyok, amióta bejelentették. Egy kis megtiszteltetésnek tűnik, hogy egy olyan srác, mint Nonito Donaire, eljön Belfastba, hogy megküzdjön velem.. Ez egy minőségi küzdelem.
„Ez egy közhely, amikor a harcosok arról beszélnek, milyen jó volt a táboruk, de őszintén hiszem, hogy a tábor volt a legjobb tábor, mert ez volt a legokosabb táborom. Teljesen másképp álltam hozzá az edzéshez. Nem emlékszem, hogy rossz napom volt az edzésen vagy a sparringon. Úgy érzem, minden összejön, és készen állok arra, hogy nagy teljesítményt nyújtsak a hazai közönségem előtt.
„Nagyon tiszteltem Donaire-t, amikor még bajnok volt, és most is tisztelem. Ő egy minőségi harcos. Az elismerések tekintetében, többet ért el, mint bármelyik másik harcos, akivel valaha is harcoltam. Ő a jövőbeli Hírességek Csarnokának tagja. Remélhetőleg egyszer ebbe a körbe tudom helyezni magam. Ő a legjobb harcos, akivel valaha harcoltam. Ide tartozik Leo Santa Cruz és [Scott] Quigg és mindenki más. Donaire mindenkinél többet ért el. Nagy dolog lesz számomra, hogy itt szombat este eredményt érjek el.
„Azt hiszem, kissé tiszteletlen volt a bal horgáról beszélni. Több kell, mint egy bal horog ahhoz, hogy a Ring Magazin Év Harcosa vagy ötszörös világbajnok legyen. Ragyogóan csúszó jobb keze van. Sokat tudok Nonito Donaire-ről, és azt mondani, hogy csak egy bal horogja van, kicsit tiszteletlenség. Ő egy zseniális harcos, és mindenre képes. Fel kell készülnöm a különböző helyzetekre, és úgy érzem, az edzőtáborban minden alapot lefedtem.
„Vannak, akik a lehető legkönnyebb csatákat akarják, de ez nem én vagyok. Szerintem ez sem Nonito. Olyan harcokban szeretnék részt venni, amelyekről az emberek beszélnek, és amelyek érdekelnek. Ez a küzdelem olyan helyzetbe hozza a győztest, hogy megküzdjön Oscar Valdezzel, hogy újra világbajnok legyen. Amikor abban a helyzetben vagyok, hogy a világbajnoki címért harcoljak, az ehhez hasonló harcok készítenek fel arra, hogy elmenjek és megnyerjem.”
Nonito Donaire
„Csodálatos volt itt lenni, ahogy utoljára is. Mindenki fantasztikus volt. Belfast összességében nagyszerű élmény volt. Az emberek nagyon kedvesek voltak az egész csapatomhoz, és mindannyian nagyon jól érezzük magunkat itt.
„Úgy gondolom, hogy nagyszerű génekkel vagyok megajándékozott. Későn virágzó vagyok. Úgy érzem, kezdek a csúcsformámba kerülni, és ez a mentalitásomnak köszönhető. Fizikai formánk csak olyan erős lehet, mint az elménk a gyűrűn belül. Szellemi erőnk ereje lehetővé tette, hogy magabiztosak lehessünk itt Belfastban, ahol a világ egyik legjobb harcosával fogunk megküzdeni..
„Azt hiszem, okosabb harcos vagyok, mint amilyenben voltam 2012. Azokkal a hullámvölgyekkel, amelyeket a karrierem során tapasztaltam, Megtanultam, mire vagyok képes, és hol jár az eszem. Nagyon bízunk benne, hogy belevágunk ebbe a küzdelembe.
„A kulcsfontosságú tényező ebben a harcban az, hogy a feleségemmel úgy érezzük, Carllal házasok vagyunk, mert felébredünk, látjuk Carlt; alszunk, látjuk Carlt; mindent, amit csinálunk, látjuk Carlt, szóval nagyjából erről van szó. Azt kell mondanom,, Carl csodálatos harcos. oda kell adnom a srácnak. Hosszú ideig, ő volt az ökölvívó boksz. Azért választotta ezt a harcot, mert ez inspirálja őt, én pedig azért jöttem Belfastba, mert ez inspirál engem.”
Jamie Moore, Carl Frampton edzője
– Utoljára, kicsit rohanós edzőtábor volt. Jót tettünk volna pár hét plusznak. Ezúttal néhány különböző változtatást vezettünk be. Magassági edzést végeztünk, és tudományos megközelítést alkalmaztunk.
„Carl fantasztikus formában van. Fokozatosan fejlesztette a kondícióját. A magassági munka zseniális volt. Annak ellenére, hogy az utolsó tábor nem volt rossz, ez sokkal jobb. Sokkal jobb állapotban van, mint az előző meccsen, és mentálisan is, remek helyen van."
Mike Bazzel, Nonito Donaire fejedzője
„Nonitónak megvan az a tapasztalata, hogy ilyen sokáig a csúcson volt. Amikor olyan sokáig a csúcson vagy, mindig lesznek kis cseppek és kis völgyek. Van egy érettség a Nonitóval. A legtöbb harcos pályafutásának ebben a szakaszában fizikailag hanyatlott. Nonito teste most kezd formálódni. Szóval most, nem csak fizikailag csúcsosodik, de mentálisan erős a sok tapasztalata miatt.”
A szombati KÜZDELEM: 5:15 p.m. ÉS / 2:15 p.m. PT (hangjegy: kezdési időpont hozzávetőleges)
