Pro Boxing revient en Afghanistan

Laisser un commentaire

Retour à 2012, Germany based Afghan Hamid Rahimi beat Tanzania’s Said Mbelwa to secure the World Boxing Organization (WBO) Middleweight Intercontinental title in front of a one thousand strong crowd in Kabul, Afghanistan.

 

At the time it was hoped that this historic event, which was also broadcast live to Millions of homes throughout the Country, would herald the long awaited return of regular Professional Boxing events in Afghanistan.

 

Certains five years later, it seems that finally the sport of Professional Boxing is set to re-establish itself, following The Afghanistan All Martial Arts Federation (AAMAF) joining forces with the British & Autorité irlandaise de boxe (BIBA) to develop boxing in the region as well as sanction events throughout the Country.

 

On jointly announcing the new partnership, AAMAF General Secretary Shukrullah Fazili said;

 

“It is exciting to establish the agency of BIBA federation in Afghanistan.

 

It’s a big honour for both of us.

We will do promotion and development of BIBA in Afghanistan and will hold national events and seminars and attend all international tournaments, seminars and more.”

 

BIBA Vice President Gianluca Di Caro then added;

 

“I cannot begin to express just how honoured I and we (BIBA) are that fellow Association of Combative Sports Commissions member the Afghanistan All Martial Arts Federation chose to approach us to partner with them with regard to the development of professional boxing within Afghanistan as well as the sanctioning of boxing events.

 

I am so looking forward to returning to the Pashtūnistān region. The memories of our first foray into sanctioning boxing in the region just over a year ago are just so vivid.

 

Back then we proudly sanctioned the first ever Professional Boxing event in Pakistan, on behalf of two division World Champion Amir Khan, to raise much needed funds to enable the Amir Khan Foundation to build fresh water wells in the Tharparkar District, one of the most desolate and poorest regions in the world today.

 

I believe that this new partnership between the AAMAF and BIBA will not only see the sport develop further in the region, but also present the opportunity for Afghan boxers to make a name for themselves internationally.”

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Dream Hotel Downtown:

ADRIEN BRONER

“Just know that I’ll be ready Samedi nuit. I’m not worried about how much he’ll weigh when we step into the ring. Je suis prêt à tout.

“Camp was tough, but it was great. I did a lot of things differently and made sure that I was doing everything right. I made sure not to cut any corners this camp.

“This is going to be a great fight for boxing. I’ve done my due diligence. Je vais m'occuper des affaires. I just know myself and know what I’m capable of.

“Every fight is a must-win in this sport. There’s no fight you go into with a loss on your mind. I’m going to put on a show Samedi.

“I laugh when people write me off. I’m used to being the underdog coming from where I come from. People don’t know what I’ve been through to get to this point. I’m blessed to be where I’m at. Samedi night there will be a lot more room on the bandwagon.

“We’ll see who’s on the pound-for-pound list after Samedi nuit. We could have fought years ago but the time is now and I’m ready.

“I’m glad that the Garcia team took this fight as quickly as we did. I’ve been taking everything seriously in Colorado. I know Mikey will be ready too. Robert Garcia definitely has some confidence from beating me with Marcos Maidana. But Mikey is not Maidana.

“I just don’t feel like Mikey will be able to do anything to stop me from getting the victory. I’m sure he’s confident too. After I make it look easy, I want everyone to write about it and say something good.

“I can make anybody quit in the ring. Mikey is no different. If I execute and stay focused, don’t be surprised. Je suis prêt pour ce combat.

"Samedi is going to be a special day for me. My birthday is demain. Je suis presque 30. I want to dedicate this victory to my twin brother Andre. Seeing his smile will make it even more special for me.”

Mikey GARCIA

“I’m prepared to go 12 hard rounds with Adrien Broner. This is a high profile fight. Probably more than my other fights. It’s created a lot of buzz amongst fans and media. Everyone is anticipating a great fight. This is a great matchup that can take me to the next level.

“I don’t think that he’s going to be desperate but he knows that I’m not an easy opponent. That’s why he’s taken camp so seriously. I expect him to be at his best and be ready. He knows that if he beats me he can launch his career back to where it was.

“He’s a four-division world champion so clearly he has the skills. I need someone who is hungry and motivated to bring out the best in me. My main focus is getting the win by any means necessary.

“I’m going to lo look to box effectively and show that I’m the better fighter. We’re both smart fighters but neither of us will run from the other. When you have styles like ourselves, with two guys who like to exchange punches, you’re in for a great battle.

“I think Adrien will be fine with the weight. He’s a pro and he knows that he really has to make weight. He’s learned from his mistakes. Sometimes he jokes around but that’s just part of his character. He takes things a lot more seriously because he’s facing me.

“If I can get this win, I just want to keep moving forward and fulfilling my dreams. I want to be in huge fights consistently. This is a crossroads fight for both of us to get to that level.

“I’m very excited to be here. Brooklyn was very kind to me when I fought here last year. I expect the fans to be here and show up like they always do Samedi. There are incredible boxing fans in New York.

“I’m here to prove that I’m back and stronger than ever. This is another opportunity to show the kind of fighter that I am. I won’t let Adrien Broner stand in my way. This is my chance to show the best version of myself.”

Charlo JERMALL

“I feel great and ready to make my debut at 160 livres. Camp has gone smoothly. I’m ready to dominate this division like I did 154 livres. My plan is to care of Heiland and then everything else will fall into line from there.

“This is a bigger, better and stronger version of Jermall Charlo. Everything has come together during camp. Ronnie Shields runs a great camp and I believe he’s continuing to bring the best out of me.

“I’m completely focused on this matchup. I know that I can’t get any of the big fights that I crave without taking care of Heiland. I’m going to break him down and if the knockout comes, I’ll make sure to take advantage.

“My hat is off to Adrien Broner and Mikey Garcia for bringing out all the fans and media for this great show. It’s a real thrill to be a part of this event.”

JORGE SEBASTIAN HEILAND

“I’m thankful to everyone who has welcomed me to New York. I’m happy to have this big opportunity and I’m 100 percent prepared for whatever Jermall Charlo brings. Jermall is a great fighter and I know that he is going to bring everything he has.

“I’ve had an amazing camp and I’ve never felt more prepared for an opportunity than this. I was very patient and I will take full advantage. My plan is to leave everything in the ring Samedi.

“My team has been with me for a long time as I waited for this opportunity. Be ready because it’s going to be a battle and a great matchup Samedi. You won’t want to miss it.”

GERALD WASHINGTON

“I came here to go to work. I’m going to shut that big mouth of his up. I hope someone is holding him accountable for all the words he’s been saying. You’re in there with a real one Samedi nuit. I’m going to welcome you to this game for real.

“I’m sure he’ll try to bring some extra pressure. I’m going to introduce him to a new class of boxing. I’ve taken a lot from my experiences in training camp with Wladimir Klitschko and in the ring with Deontay Wilder. You’ll see the difference Samedi.

“I’m still growing in this sport. I’ve been learning on the job this whole time and each experience just means so much to me. I wanted to take on a tough undefeated fighter because I knew that it would make it a great fight.

“This is most definitely ending inside of the distance. I’m coming after him. I’m going to wear him out. Then it’s time to take him out.”

JARRELL MILLER

“If you don’t know who “Big Baby” is, you soon will. I’ve never seen anyone get knocked out and get praised for it, but that’s what people are doing for Washington. I’ve never been hurt in my life in the ring and I’ll prove it Samedi.

“This guy said he’s going to introduce me to big-time boxing. I’ve been in front of huge crowds and I’ve come through with knockout wins. I’ll be more than ready Samedi nuit.

“I’ve got big plans in this sport and this is only the start. Brooklyn fans loved their hometown heavyweights Mike Tyson and Riddick Bowe. I’m going to be next in that line and this city will love me.”

KATIE TAYLOR

“It’s incredible to be here in New York and to make my US debut on this incredible card. It’s truly a privilege.

“Training has gone so well and I’m so happy that SHOWTIME will stream the fight. It’s incredible for my fans overseas and all fans of women’s boxing.

“I hope to make a strong statement this weekend and I hope everyone enjoys the fight Samedi nuit. "

LEONARD Ellerbe, PDG de Promotions Mayweather

“This is definitely a must-see event Samedi nuit. Two great fighters, fighting at the right time, both in the prime of their careers. Ça va être un grand spectacle.

“One of the main reasons why boxing is going to the next level is because the people at the top have a vision of seeing great fights. We have another great example of that ce samedi nuit au Barclays Center

“Anytime you have a great event, it’s going to start with the undercard. We have a lot of young fighters looking to show off their skills. We’re thrilled to have our very own Richardson Hitchins and Kenny Robles competing in exciting undercard action.”

DiBella LOU, Président de DiBella Entertainment

“A month from now there will be a huge event in Las Vegas, mais two days from now there is the best fight card of the summer, the best fight of the summer, and a great show from top to bottom at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

“This is a great summer of boxing for SHOWTIME and it’s great to be in this room and see all the great attention that this fight card is getting. This is one of the best representations that we can have of our sport. This is one of the most stacked cards I’ve ever been involved with.

“There are a lot of good reasons to get a ticket and come to Barclays Center Samedi nuit. There will be a strong Irish presence on the card Samedi with both Katie Taylor and Noel Murphy entering the ring.”

STEPHEN ESPINOZA, Vice-président exécutif & Directeur Général, Sports Showtime

"Samedi is a testament to SHOWTIME’s commitment to boxing and boxing fans. We’ve worked hard to deliver the most important bouts from around the world. We have three separate telecasts, five fights, across two continents.

“We will also be streaming Katie Taylor’s U.S. début. People know Katie from reputation alone, and we thought it was important to have her fight seen. The heavyweight fight between Gerald Washington and Jarrell Miller is another one that deserves to be seen and I think it could be the fight that steals the show.

“The main event has two of the brightest young stars in boxing. They both feel like they’ve been on this stage for a while. You know their resumes and you have to give them all of the credit in the world for taking this fight. Neither had to take this fight, but it will be one of the most exciting matchups of the summer.

“We have had 19 live presentations and 15 world title fights so far and we’re proud of what we’ve done accomplished so far. Boxing has had a great year and much of that has been carried by SHOWTIME boxing. That will continue ce samedi."

BRETT YORMARK, PDG de Brooklyn Sports & Divertissement

“This card is our fourth major card this year. It’s been an incredible year for BROOKLYN BOXING. We’ve made a commitment to bring the best boxing to the borough. With all of our partners help, we have been able to accomplish that.

“We welcome both of these fighters back to Brooklyn. They’ve both built fan bases and we’re excited to see both of them back in the building and in the ring Samedi.

“The whole night of boxing is going to be incredible. I welcome Jermall Charlo to Brooklyn, your brother had a great night in April and I’m sure you will follow in his footsteps.”

“Explorer ce qui était là-bas dans le nouveau paysage de la boxe a été énervant et excitant en même temps,” Ledit Nonito Donaire, “Je connais Richard depuis de nombreuses années et ont toujours respecté ce qu'il a pu faire pour les combattants, il favorise. À ce stade de ma carrière, je veux que les plus grands combats possibles et le palmarès de Richard pour les livrer lui-même parle. La pensée des méga-combats contre les goûts de Mares, Santa Cruz, Selby ou Frampton obtient mon sang bouillant. Le prochain chapitre de ma carrière commence maintenant et je suis heureux de dire qu'il est avec Ringstar! Je suis reconnaissant à mes fans et l'équipe pour leur soutien continu!”
“Nonito est l'une des légendes modernes de notre sport,” Schaefer a déclaré Richard, Président-directeur général de Sport Ringstar. “L'un de ces combattants rares qui donne des résultats toujours et sait toujours comment divertir! Je suis convaincu qu'il sera à nouveau l'un des meilleurs livre pour livre combattants dans le monde. Aucun doute là dessus! Je tiens à remercier sa femme et directeur, Rachel Donaire aussi bien pour la confiance qu'elle place en moi. Nous ne pouvons pas attendre d'y aller!”
Né aux Philippines et vivant en Californie, Donaire éclaté sur la scène en 2007 après une carrière amateur stellaire quand il a arrêté Vic Darchinyan précédemment invaincu dans le cinquième tour pour capturer un titre mondial poids mouche. Donaire défendrait le titre avec trois autres coups de grâce avant qu'il se hisse à des poids coq et a vaincu le champion unifié Fernando Montiel dans 2011 pour devenir un champion du monde de la division.
prochain défi Donaire est venu au super poids coq comme il l'a fait 27 victoires consécutives en abattant et vaincre Wilfredo Vazquez Jr. en 2012 pour devenir un champion à 122 livres-. Une année record pour Donaire a poursuivi avec une victoire sur l'unification de titre Jeffrey Mathebula et défonçables sur Jorge Arce et Toshiaki Nishioka. Après l'impressionnante série Donaire a été reconnu comme le 2012 Fighter de l'année par le BWAA, ESPN et Ring Magazine.
Une perte de Guillermo Rigondeaux mis fin à une série de victoires de 30 combat pour Donaire, mais il a continué à ajouter à son curriculum vitae, il a remporté un titre mondial dans une quatrième catégorie de poids en remportant un championnat poids plume par décision technique sur Simpiwe Vetyeka en 2014.
Un autre titre mondial a été ajouté à la collection de trophées sans cesse croissant de Donaire en 2015 quand il a vaincu Cesar Juarez pour capturer un titre mondial des super poids coq. Il a défendu avec succès le titre aux Philippines avant de perdre une décision serrée à invaincu Jessie Magdaleno Novembre dernier.
Donaire, qui est actuellement en formation au Japon, sera de retour sur le ring en Septembre. De plus amples détails seront communiqués dès qu'ils seront disponibles

About Ring TV:
The Ring was founded in 1922 by Nat Fleischer. The first issue, dated February 15, 1922, était 24 pages and cost 20 cents. The cover featured black and white photographs of American promoter Tex Richard and Lord Lonsdale, a British aristocrat and boxing patron. Originally located in New York City, the magazine relocated to Long Island, New York, en 1990, and then moved to suburban Pennsylvania in 1993. It is now based in Los Angeles.
There have been only seven editors-in-chief in the magazine’s history. Michael Rosenthal is the current editor. The Ring began awarding championship belts in 1922. The first Ring belt was awarded to heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey, the second to flyweight champion Pancho Villa. The magazine stopped giving belts to world champions in the 1990s, but began again in 2002 when it launched its new championship policy intended to reward fighters who, by satisfying rigid criteria, can justify a claim as the true and only world champion in a given weight class.

Fighting out of Whitby, Ontario, Canada, Rose stopped two-time Canadian Olympian Adam Trupish (11-1) dans le deuxième tour de leur 2014 lutte, and last November he upset previously undefeated Ryan Young (10-0) with an opening round knockout.
Two Jamaicans battle it out in the consolation fight as Richard “The Frog” Holmes (14-7, 8 KOs) fait face à son compatriote Tsetsi Davis (18-6, 5 KOs. The championship and consolation bouts are both scheduled for 10 tours.

Phil Rose & Tyler Buxton

“My fiancé is from Jamaica and I first went there looking to promote shows there,” dit Tyler Buxton (United Boxing Promotions), who has served as consultant to the television producer, in addition to being the promoter/manager for Team Canada. “I spoke to the Jamaica boxing commissioner and he told me about past Contender shows. He was concerned about the team fighting Team Jamaica being able to fill the eight-fighter field. I agreed to bring Team Canada and it’s been a great experience for me and all the guys.

“They flew in on a Vendredi, combattu mercredi, and flew back to Canada the following day. They stayed in a mansion, where there was a beautiful in-ground pool, and the fighters had their own cooks. They had to adjust to the heat having been used to fighting and training in Canada. Mais, hé, they had no problems losing weight. Everybody here has been super nice. The Jamaican media wasn’t nice to us at the beginning, claiming we weren’t good enough to compete with Jamaican fighters, but we won the first round, 5-3, and then got some respect. Our fighters even have some Jamaican fans now.”
Unlike the original version of The Contender aux États-Unis, which was a reality television show, la “Jamaican Contender” is all about fighting, no behind the scenes stories. It has aired on JTV in Jamaica, drawing 800,000 viewers for the quarterfinals, 1-million for the semifinals, et 1.2 million viewers are projected for Mercredi dechampionship final. These are incredible viewing numbers considering there are only 2.8 million people living in Jamaica. Fans outside of Jamaica may watch a live stream the championship final online via 1Stopmedia.com.
Jamaica has a rich boxing tradition, producing many world-class fighters and champions such as Mike McCallum, Trevor Berbick, Donovan Ruddock, Glen Johnson, Simon Brown, Nicholas Walters, O’Neil Bell, Uriah Grant, Alicia Ashley, Alex Stewart et Howard Grant. En 1973, Kingston hosted the World Heavyweight Championship between a pair of future Hall of Famers, “Grand” George Foreman (37-0) et “Smokin'” Joe Frazier (29-0), in which Foreman captured the WBC and WBA titles from defending champion Frazier by way of a second-round knockout.
