Melson volunteers to serve in the Middle East; withdraws from NY Congressional race

Deixe um comentário

 

Brooklyn, Nova Iorque (Janeiro 4, 2018) – Army Public Affairs Officer and retired pro boxer Boyd Melson announced his withdrawal from the New York District 11 Congressional election to serve the United States in the fight against ISIS in Operation Inherent Resolve.

 

 

Melson is currently serving in the Army Reserve in the rank of Major. Recentemente, a member of Melson’s Army Reserve unit scheduled for deployment in early 2018 received an opportunity for an assignment in an Active Guard Reserve (AGR) position.

 

 

The soldier wanted this assignment for a long period of time and it was an opportunity that would not be offered again if initially turned down. The soldier is married with children and the opportunity would be extremely beneficial to the soldier and her family. Melson, a Brooklyn resident, previously volunteered, without success, to serve abroad on three different deployments. He was adamant that this is his time to fight terrorism at its forefront.

 

 

“I am proud of many things that have taken place in my life and lives of those around me,", Disse Melson, um 2003 West Point graduate. “The most important to me without question is being a great American that stands behind his responsibilities as a member of the Army Reserve.”

 

 

Melson, who helped raise more than $400,000 for Spinal Cord Injury research by donating every penny earned in his boxing career and helping host multiple charity galas, has been chronicled by many high profile media outlets for his selflessness. Contudo, the 36-year-old believes this next journey is his responsibility as an American.

 

 

“I have never deployed. Wholeheartedly, I believe that it is my ultimate duty to serve this great country in our fight against ISIS in the Middle East. For this reason, I have decided to withdraw from the 2018 District 11 Congressional election. While there’s no doubt in my mind I was the right man to lead Staten Island and South Brooklyn, America needs me overseas. I was doing well in my campaign run. I was singled out by the New York times as one of a handful of up and coming Democratic candidates for United States Congress. I was one of six candidates asked to speak out in front of the White House to address Russia’s cyber-interference with our elections. Then I received a phone call. A fellow soldier was scheduled to deploy. She asked me if I would switch with her because of various circumstances that would greatly benefit her family’s life to include her. I immediately said yes.”

 

 

“I thought to myself, I have never been deployed and I don’t want to look back on my life thinking how I had my chance to do my part fighting ISIS but shied away from it. That would have gone against everything I stand for. I believe in sacrificing myself to help others. Desta vez, the sacrifice is not only to help combat the terror in the Middle East, but to also help out a fellow soldier. If I said no, I would have lied to myself about who I think I am and what I think I am about.”

 

 

I have spent a great amount of time over the years traveling to schools and speaking to students from pre-k through college. I always stated that you must make sure that your decisions are in alignment with your heart’s values. Me not being there when called upon would have meant I would have lied to these children all of these years. I finally am getting my chance to join my brothers and sisters in arms with this experience. Only my inner-circle knew about the other three deployments I tried to get on. I finally get to join all those throughout our nation’s history that have made this choice. I believe in my choice, albeit it will be costing me my chance at being elected into office. Serving my nation, the United States of America, in uniform while in harm’s way, to help fight.”

Now in its 17th year, um total de 171 fighters have suffered their first loss on ShoBox.

RONALD ELLIS vs. JUNIOR YOUNAN – 10-Round Super Middleweight

 

Ellis returns to ShoBox in his first bout since defeating Christopher Brooker via a unanimous decision in Atlantic City last January. In his ShoBox debut, Ellis fought Jerry Odom to a majority draw in Atlantic City in February 2016.
 

Originally from Lynn, De Massa., the 28-year-old Ellis currently lives and trains in Los Angeles at the Iron Gym under trainer Jerry Rosenberg and his father Ronald Ellis Sr.
 

“It’s going to be fireworks from the jump,” said Ellis, who was scheduled to fight Taneal Goyco in November, but the fight was scrapped when Goyco weighed three pounds over the super middleweight limit. “Younan is a good little fighter, but we are trying to get him out of there. Este é o meu primeiro evento principal, and I want to impress. It will be a good way to start 2018, which will be my year.”
 

Ellis upset highly regarded Terrell Gausha to win the 2010 Luvas de Ouro nacionais. Gausha would go on to represent the U.S. no 2012 Jogos Olímpicos.
 

Younan, who is promoted by Roc Nation Sports, was a highly touted amateur boxer who compiled a 90-5 record before turning professional in 2013 com a idade de 18. Once dubbed by The New York Times as “a boxing prodigy” as a 10-year-old, Younan was a two-time National Junior Golden Gloves champion, o 2011 National Junior Olympic championship, and at one point was the No. 1-rated junior boxer in his weight class by USA Boxing.
 

Because of injuries, Younan fought just one time in 2015. After a nine-month layoff, he returned in March of 2016 to beat Cristian Solorzano and has remained active since. Eight of Younan’s 13 pro wins have ended in the first round, including three of his last five fights. The 22-year-old is trained by his father, Sherif Younan
 

“It’s a pleasure to fight on SHOWTIME and I’m excited to put on a show for all the viewers,” Younan said. “I’ve been working as hard as possible and I’m confident my efforts will pay off. I’m going to break my opponent’s spirit and pick him apart. This is my time – in 2018, I’m looking to make a title run and this fight is just the first step.”
 

WELLINGTON ROMERO vs. SAM TEAH – Eight-Round Super Lightweight

 

Romero is originally from the Dominican Republic now fighting out of Newburgh, Nova Iorque. A southpaw, he fights under the Roc Nation Sports promotion and represented the Dominican Republic in the 2012 London Olympics, where he lost to eventual Gold Medalist Vasyl Lomachenko.

 

An accomplished amateur with 268 lutas, Romero earned a bronze medal at the 2010 Central American Games and made back-to-back appearances at the 2011 World Amateur Boxing Championships and the 2011 Pan American Games as a teenager.
 

The 26-year-old Romero fought twice in 2017, recording TKOs in both wins over Kevin Womack Jr. and Mike Fowler.
 

“This fight on SHOWTIME is a great opportunity for me to showcase my talent and I want to thank God, my team and everyone involved for this opportunity,” Romero said. “I’m going to deliver a world class performance for all the boxing fans out there to enjoy. After defeating my opponent, I know I will make a lasting impression on the viewers and start paving my way to a world title belt.”
 

This won’t be the first time Philadelphia’s Teah is facing an undefeated fighter on ShoBox. In Las Vegas in 2015, Teah scored a unanimous decision over previously undefeated O’Shaquie Foster. The 30-year-old’s only loss came against then-undefeated Lavisas Williams in 2014.
 

Nascido na Libéria, Teah did not start boxing until the age of 19. His last four fights have been close to home with three in his hometown of Philadelphia and the other two in Bristol, Pa., and Atlantic City, N.J.
 

“I know my opponent was an Olympian, and he has been in front of a lot of great fighters,” Teah said. “I am excited to face him and take the big challenge. I know I will be his toughest opponent. I am ready to see what he is made of.”
 

THOMAS MATTICE vs. ROLANDO CHINEA – Eight-Round Lightweight
 

A 27-year-old from Cleveland, Mattice turned pro in 2014 and had an amateur record of 72-18. He was a three-time Ohio State Golden Gloves champion, and bronze medal winner in the USA National Tournament in 2014.
 

In his last fight on Nov. 11, Mattice beat Orlando Rizo via seventh-round stoppage in Georgia. Mattice, who has recorded four straight KOs and eight overall in 10 lutas profissionais, is a boxer-puncher who likes to attack the body.
 

“It’s a tough fight for sure,” Mattice said. “I checked him out. It’s going to be a rough fight, but I am prepared for a war. I am prepared for whatever he will bring. I am excited to fight on ShoBox. Ever since I started boxing, I said one day that will be me fighting on TV, and now that dream comes true.”
 

The 26-year-old Chinea returns to ShoBox after handing previously unbeaten Kenneth Sims Jr., the first loss of his professional career via majority decision on July 14. The win moved Chinea’s ShoBox record to 2-0. He had previously won an eight-round split decision victory over O’Shaquie Foster in 2016.
 

A Puerto Rican native now living in Lancaster, Pa., Chinea suffered his only defeat against the hands of Ismail Muwendo in 2015. He has won five straight since, including two unanimous decisions over previously undefeated Ladarius Miller and Mel Crossty, as well as the unbeaten Sims. His last four opponents had a combined record of 38-1-1.
 

“I know Thomas Mattice is another undefeated fighter with a terrific amateur career,” Chinea said. “I am being brought in as his opponent, to make him look good in his national TV debut. I respect Thomas for agreeing to fight me. I am sure that he will bring his best, and it will be another entertaining fight, Chinea style. I am going to be in the best shape of my career. I am going to be stronger, and I am going to hunt him down, rough him up, and beat him. I can’t wait to fight and win again on ShoBox.”
 

DEVIN HANEY vs. HARMONITO DELA TORRE – Eight-Round Lightweights

 

Haney just turned 19 years old last November and already sports a professional record of 18-0 com 12 nocautes. Trained and managed by his father, William Haney, he has been active with nine fights in 2016 and seven in 2017. In his last fight on Nov. 4, he scored a fifth-round TKO against Hamza Sempewo in Atlanta.
 

Raised in Oakland, Calif., Haney was a seven-time national amateur champion and compiled an impressive record of 130-8. Haney is currently living and training in Las Vegas, where he sparred with Floyd Mayweather as the pound-for-pound champ prepared to face Conor McGregor, and Shawn Porter. Haney turned professional when he was 16 years old in Mexico.
 

“Fighting on SHOWTIME, specifically ShoBox, where many champions have been made, is something I’ve envisioned since I turned professional in 2015,” Haney said. “I’m in tough against Harmonito Dela Torre, a hungry fighter who is coming off his first pro loss. I know his back is up against the wall, so I’m expecting him to bring everything he’s got. But this is my time to shine on the big stage and I’m not going to let this opportunity pass me by. I’m the future of boxing and everyone will see my talent on February 2, especially Dela Torre.”
 

Dela Torre is a 23-year-old Philippines native who has been training with Osmiri Fernandez in Miami the past few months at the Sanman Boxing Gym.
 

Dela was scheduled to fight last on Aug. 22 in Las Vegas in a super featherweight bout against undefeated Saul Rodriguez, who inexplicably pulled out of the matchup a few days before the fight.
 

Em vez, Dela Torre entered the ring in Las Vegas on Nov. 18 and suffered his first loss against 2012 Olympic silver medalist Tugstsogt Nyambayar in an eight-round unanimous decision, despite scoring a second-round knockdown. It was the first time in his first nine fights that Nyambayar was taken the distance.
 

Barry Tompkins will call the ShoBox action from ringside with Steve Farhood and former world champion Raul Marquez serving as expert analysts. O produtor executivo é Gordon Hall com Richard Gaughan produção e direção de Rick Phillips.

Aqui está o que os lutadores tinham a dizer sobre sua janeiro 20 matchups e muito mais:
ROBERT PÁSCOA (20-0, 14 KOs) – Fazendo terceira defesa do IBF Leve título mundial
“Esta luta pode definitivamente dar um bom tom para mim em 2018. Eu estou indo fazer uma indicação com esta luta. Meus últimos três lutas Eu não tenham obtido um nocaute. Eu vou estar dando os meus fãs e os fãs de luta um bom show.
“Vou usar meu alcance e duração e destruir esse cara do lado de fora. Toda a minha carreira eu tenho lutado caras mais curtos. Cada curta cara não lutar contra a mesma. Mas você entrar no ringue e você senti-lo para fora e fazer ajustes.
“Não há nada em particular que eu tenho que preparar para com Fortuna. Eu levo cada luta o mesmo. Cada lutador luta diferente para que você chegar lá, senti-lo para fora e fazer ajustes à medida que avanças. Eu não estou preocupado sobre ele ser um canhoto. Eu enfrentei muitos canhotos na minha carreira e nos amadores. Isso é nenhum problema em tudo.
“Acho que o que me faz o boxeador mais perigoso nesta luta é ter a altura que eu faço e o poder de perfuração e a velocidade ea mentalidade bem. Minha mentalidade é que eu não vou lá para brincar com ele. Eu estou pronto para destruir.
“Meus objetivos para 2018 são para capturar mais títulos e para obter lutas de unificação. Tivemos alguns campeões na categoria de peso, mas parece que ninguém está disposto a lutar contra os outros campeões. Estamos dispostos a fazer o que for preciso, lutar contra quem tem os títulos. Estamos dispostos a capturar todos os títulos sempre que os outros caras estão dispostos a se inscrever para as lutas.”
JAVIER FORTUNA (33-1-1, 23 KOs) – Ex-campeão mundial Super Pena
“Minha preparação para esta luta está indo muito bem. Eu tenho trabalhado para fora na República Dominicana, mas eu vim de volta para Boston para terminar a minha formação. Agora estamos no 75% e fechando em 100%. I será completamente preparado quando é hora de lutar. Minha preparação e minha estratégia de me fazer o cara mais perigoso.
“Eu vejo isso como nenhuma outra luta que eu tive antes, porque cada adversário é diferente. Todo mundo tem seu próprio nicho neste nível, algo que funciona para eles. Seu nicho é que ele é alto. Ele usa isso para sua vantagem. Mas não é nada que eu não possa superar. Já lutei caras altos antes.
“Eu prefiro meus adversários para ser mais alto. Ele joga para o que eu sou capaz de fazer. Eu nunca tive um problema com os adversários mais altos. Abner Cotto (5-10) é um dos caras altos que eu lutei. Eu lutei em Chicago e colocar em um grande desempenho. (Fortuna marcou um 5th rodada KO contra Cotto)
“O meu objectivo para 2018 é lutar contra todos os melhores lutadores de elite na minha categoria de peso, e eu estou tentando se tornar mencionado como um dos melhores no esporte. Eu realmente quero ganhar mais um título mundial em uma categoria de peso diferente. Seria o maior momento tão longe da minha carreira para chegar mais um título mundial.”
MARCUS BROWNE (20-0, 15 KOs) – Topo 10 Classificado em 175 lbs. (WBC, WBO, WBA & IBF)
“Meu oponente (Francy Ntetu, 17-1, 4 KOs) se parece com um durável, cara durão. Eu vejo essa luta ser muito emocionante para os fãs durante o tempo que dura. Eu vi um pouco de fita sobre ele. Eu sei que ele sempre vem em forma tip-top, e eu ouvi dizer que ele é consistente em seu desempenho no ringue. Eu só sei que eu vou ter que ser afiada em Jan. 20.
“É sempre uma honra lutar aqui em casa e no Barclays Center. É especial para ser capaz de executar na frente desses fãs e eu não posso esperar para colocar em um bom desempenho levando até o Spence vs. luta Peterson.
“Esta luta pode me colocar na posição que eu preciso ser-se para lutar por um título mundial. Eu não pode ser desprovido de qualquer maneira. Eu tenho que sair forte com um grande desempenho do início ao fim e não deixar nenhuma dúvida lá.
“Para 2018, Quero me tornar um campeão do mundo. Estou determinado tomake acontecer este ano. Essa visão começa no Jan. 20 no Barclays Center contra Francy Ntetu.”
FRANCY NTETU (17-1, 4 KOs) – Lutou David Benavidez pelo Barclays Center em junho 2015
“Eu sei Marcus Browne provavelmente vai me levar de ânimo leve e acha que ele vai simplesmente passar por mim. Espero que seja o caso, porque vai ser um choque para ele, os fãs e sua equipe quando eu tomar o seu lugar na fila por um título. Quero enfrentar Eleider Álvarez em nossa cidade natal de Montreal depois de eu obter esta vitória.
“A minha luta anterior no Barclays Center contra a corrente campeão WBC David Benavidez era obviamente uma má decisão do árbitro a parar a luta, especialmente quando eu estava ganhando a rodada e Benavidez estava a abrandar. Eu estava ficando mais forte, enquanto ele estava ficando mais fraco.
“I nunca foi ferido e nunca foi derrubado em uma luta. Quero Marcus para desafiar a si mesmo e ver se ele pode fazer algo que ninguém mais tem. Estou animado para estar em uma luta dessa magnitude. Marcus, é hora para nós para dar aos fãs o que eles querem!”
ADAM Kownacka (16-0, 13 KOs) – Originalmente da Polônia & lutando fora de Brooklyn
“Esta luta vai ser mais um passo para se tornar um campeão. Eu sei que eu vou ter que trabalhar muito duro e provar que eu estou continuando a construir na minha vitória contra Szpilka. A partir do vídeo que eu vi na Iago Kiladze (26-1, 18 KOs), ele se move muito, então eu vou ser a necessidade de cortar o anel. Tudo o que ele traz para o ringue, Eu vou ter uma resposta para.
“Três anos em uma fila agora eu tenho lutado em janeiro. Adoro começando o ano forte. Minha esposa e eu realmente começou a tradição da “Kownacki Family Run” em meia-noite na véspera de Ano Novo. Desde que eu estou sempre se preparando para uma luta em torno de Ano Novo, achamos que poderia muito bem se divertir enquanto trabalhamos. Assim, nós vamos ter alguns amigos sair e executar algumas milhas com a gente ao redor do bairro durante os fogos de artifício. É divertido e ajuda a me preparar.
“Em última análise, Eu estou olhando para se tornar o melhor na divisão peso pesado. O objetivo final para este ano é para se tornar um campeão do mundo. Mas o primeiro passo é tomar Iago Kiladze muito a sério. Eu não posso olhar o passado Janeiro 20 agora mesmo. Eu tenho um adversário difícil, que vai desafiar e me fazer um lutador melhor no longo prazo.”
IAGO Kiladze, Terceira luta desde mover-se para a divisão de pesos pesados (2-0, 2 KOs)
“Eu me sinto ótimo e meu treinamento tem sido fantástico. Meu treinador é Freddie Roach agora. Eu brigaram com (IBF campeão Cruiserweight) Murat Gassiev três vezes recentemente, que é uma grande preparação para mim. Eu acredito que posso nocautear Kownacki mas se eu tiver que ir à distância eu estou preparado para isso. De qualquer jeito, Eu vou ser vitorioso. Estou sinto que eu sou o lutador mais qualificados e que irá mostrar no ringue.
“Esta é uma grande luta para minha carreira e um começo fantástico para 2018. Eu sei que se eu vencer essa luta eu vou estar muito mais perto de um título mundial oportunidade.
“Meu objetivo é ser campeão do mundo no final do 2018. Eu quero continuar melhorando e aprendendo sob Freddie e com a sua orientação estou confiante de sucesso.”
