CONFÉRENCE DE PRESSE, TUESDAY MAY 9TH AT 5 PM AT THE SUGARHOUSE CASINO
POUR DIFFUSION IMMÉDIATE

Philadelphie, Pennsylvanie. (Mai 4, 2017) – Christopher Brooker (11-3, 5 KO)va prendre Oscar Riojas (14-7-1, 4 KO) sur Vendredi, May 12th à la cabane à sucre Casino.

The scheduled eight-round super middleweight bout will headline a card promoted by King’s Promotions.

Brooker was summoned to San Diego to help Canelo Alavrez prepare for Samedi mega showdown with Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr that will take place in Las Vegas.
Being that Brooker is a strong super middleweight, and Chavez having a similar build, it made sense that Brooker would get such a call to help out the Mexican Idol for the much anticipated showdown.
I went to camp with Canelo in San Diego, and we ran in the mountains at 15,000 pieds. I was there close to two weeks and sparred twenty rounds with him,” said Brooker.
It was a great experience to be around a fighter who is one of the elite fighters in the world. He is so composed. I was brought into to pressure him and mimic Chavez, Jr. Canelo is such an experienced fighter, and I learned so much from him. He was showing me how to set up my shots, and even certain exercises with my neck.
Brooker was very impressed with the whole team, and believes that this camp will take him to the next level.
His team is so professional and down to earth. I am looking forward to this fight Samedi. Ce sera un bon combat. I was shocked to know that Canelo watched my last fight on ShoBox. They could tell that I was trying to box more and get a way from my brawling style that I had employed in most of my bouts. They gave me good advice, and told me not to change who I was when I was having a lot of success as a pressure fighter, and then to mix in the boxing aspect to my game.
I needed this. This will take my to another level.
Also in a six-round bout:
Blake Mansfield (5-0-1, 2 KO) de Burlington, NC se battra Henry Beckford (4-6, 1 KO) of Coram, NY in a super middleweight bout.

The 35-year-old has resided in Manhattan, Brooklyn and White Plains. Melson also has close ties to Staten Island, where he currently runs free boxing clinics for men and women battling or recovering from addiction.
Following an outstanding amateur boxing career, Melson turned pro in 2010 with the sole intention of raising funds and awareness. Entre faire un don 100% de ses sacs de combat, private donations in his honor and charity galas, Melson, Co-Founder of Team Fight To Walk, helped raise more than $400,000 to help cure Chronic Spinal Cord Injuries, combat Staten Island’s drug epidemic and assist his childhood friend with a son battling brain cancer. He retired from boxing in 2016 avec un 15-2-1 record, winning a World Boxing Council (WBC) United States Championship in 2015.
Upon the competition of his final professional fight, Promoter Lou DiBella said he’d never promoted a better man than Boyd Melson.
His unique mission through boxing was chronicled by The Huffington Post, ESPN, Yahoo, Sports Illustrated, HBO Real Sports and The Wall Street Journal among many other media outlets.
As a public and motivational speaker, Melson’s addressed an array of audiences, many of which he spoke to pro bono. His audiences include attendees at New York’s 2017 Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) Conference, elementary to college age students, Army Battalions, Army Corps level leadership, college sports teams, Fortune 500 companies and religious organizations.

Currently serving our country through the US Army Reserves, literally fighting to raise funds and having traveled the country to assist and motivate others, Melson epitomizes the meaning of a public servant.
“I need to continue my service to this nation. I have a heavy task in front of me. I am committed. I have a tremendous fight in my spirit for what is right. I was born mixed with African, Irlandais, Native American, Français, Dutch, Spanish, and I am Jewish. Perhaps I am a good example of one of the aspects as to why us American citizens are what makes us great- we the people. We combine our strengths. We are the best of all cultures. We are strong, and we do not allow ourselves to be seduced by fear. I understand that my decisions will hurt people, despite my intentions.”
“I understand that in the American citizens’ yeux, I will be the face in the district I am running in, that will be responsible for anything good or bad our government may cause in any of the constituents lives. This is why I will always be present. I focus on how many I still have hurting, not how many I have helped. I will be in the community, at events, highly visible, and highly accessible. My job will be to answer to you, the constituents I am responsible for. I am built for this, my life has prepared me. I will continue my willingness to be knocked down and get back up to keep fighting. I will inspire you to believe in my spirit. Fighters fight! Je suis un combattant. District 11 must know that I am ready to fight in their corner.”

“Je pense qu'il y aura encore plus de gens là-bas cette lutte qu'à mes débuts pro,” Hernandez a déclaré. “Je vis seulement 10 à 15 minutes en voiture de Hartman Arena, au nord de Wichita.
“J'ai travaillé dur sur le poinçonnage du corps pour mes débuts pro. Je ne le faisais pas dans les amateurs (pas marquer des points) et je suis en train de passer à utiliser pour gaucher. Tous deux étaient dans notre plan de match et avec succès dans mon combat premières fois. Je suis très heureux de revenir à droite dans le ring, surtout à la maison.

Nous avons besoin de le déplacer plus vite qu'un chasseur moyen, en grande partie en raison de son arrière-plan amateur, et il aura probablement plus qu'un seul combat de six rondes après cela avant le déplacement jusqu'à huit.
“Je pensais qu'il avait l'air un peu nerveux à ses débuts pro au début, mais ce qui est attendu pour un chasseur fait ses débuts pro à la maison en face de près 3,200 personnes, et après qu'il était grand. On ne pouvait pas demander plus et il a réussi à avoir dans certains tours qui seront utiles.
“Ce combat sera proche de l'endroit où vit Nico. Nico se connecte vraiment aux enfants dans la communauté, parlant souvent dans les écoles locales, ce qui est l'occasion idéale pour les parents d'amener leurs enfants à le regarder se battre sur une nuit de week-end.
“Nous appelons ce spectacle, 'Tir rapide,’ principalement en raison du style excitant de Nico, tir combinaisons nettes en succession rapide, en plus de son niveau d'activité, comme il revient le droit de se battre si vite.”

Les fans vont voir le chasseur Nico est vraiment, mais ce combat il va revenir à la boxe plus. Je lui ai dit qu'il avait besoin d'aller au corps comme un combattant professionnel, mais que chaque coup de poing ne doit pas être aussi dur. Parfois, je dois lui rappeler que parce qu'il est un combattant au coeur.
“Je savais qu'il serait bien dans ses débuts pro (nerfs sages) parce qu'il se passe comme le combat continue. Quand il blesse son adversaire, il est le plus fort. Je lui dis de boîte et d'être lui-même. Il est toujours bien conditionné pour qu'il puisse aller sans problème tours. Je veux qu'il soit rapide et insaisissable pour enlever ses adversaires’ corps et, dans les tours plus tard, revenir à la boxe. Il a combattu à 115 livres, mais il sera de retour à 112 pour ce combat. Nico était forte à 115 et il sera très fort à poids mouche.”

I want to dedicate this fight to my children, ma famille, all of my fans and to all of the people around the world who have suffered from depression. I’m living proof that you can make it. Don’t give up. LET’S GO CHAMP!”
Returning to the ring after a disputed defeat to Ruslan Chagaev in a 2014 combat pour le titre, Oquendo is co-promoted by future Hall of Famer Roy Jones Jr.’s Square Ring Promotions and Hitz Boxing as he looks to become the first heavyweight champion from Puerto Rico since John Ruiz in 2001.
This will be a great fight between two veteran American fighters,” Saïd Oquendo. “I’ve fought in Miami five times, plus, I train at the historic 5th Street Gym in Miami Beach, so I’m very comfortable here. The trials and tribulations I’ve encountered for 30 years in this sport and 20 comme un professionnel, are finally coming to fruition. They say third time is the charm, but the fourth is the holy grail and the most special. I’m dedicating this fight to Jaxon King, my friend’s son who just passed away at five years of age. I’m also doing this for my mentor, Muhammad Ali. Winning his belt on the anniversary of his passing will be special. I’m going to borrow the belt for a bit and give it back when I’m done beating Shannon.
Moins que 30 miles from the Miami Beach Convention Center that hosted the 1964 Fight of the Year between Muhammad Ali and Sonny Liston, Briggs and Oquendo will look to ignite the passions of the rabid boxing fans in South Florida as they seek a piece of the championship crown and move closer to the ultimate goal of unifying the heavyweight division.
We’re extremely excited about bringing this WBA Heavyweight World Championship fight to Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino,” said Kris Lawrence, founder of The Heavyweight Factory. “We’re really proud of Shannon Briggs, who has a chance to tie George Foreman’s record and become a champion for a third time. It is truly amazing for a heavyweight like Shannon to have lasted and preserved himself for so long. He was champion in two different decades. First in 1997 et alors 2006. Now in 2017, he has the chance to do it again. We hope to see everyone coming out and supporting Shannon Briggs the night of the fight, as he is the ‘People’s Champ.’ LET’S GO CHAMP!”
Briggs has made South Florida his home and training camp for much of his career. He will be making his fourth start at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and his ninth in the state.
Representing the boxing hotbed of Brooklyn, Briggs (60-6-1, 53 KOs) seeks the third heavyweight world title in his long and eventful career. Briggs became a world champion in 2006 when he scored a 12th round stoppage of Siarhei Liakhovich. Briggs has faced the best heavyweights in the world and won the lineal heavyweight world title from George Foreman in 1997. He also defeated Ray Mercer in 2005, in addition to world title challenges of Lennox Lewis and Vitali Klitschko. He enters this fight as the winner of his last nine contests, including eight knockouts and a 12-round decision over Raphael Zumbano Love.
Originally from Puerto Rico and fighting out of Chicago throughout his pro career, Oquendo (37-8, 24 KOs)looks to capitalize on his fourth opportunity and capture a world title. The slick-boxer has faced a slew of top heavyweights throughout his career, including narrow decision losses to Evander Holyfield and James Toney, plus title challenges of Chris Byrd and John Ruiz. The 44-year-old owns recent victories over Derric Rossy and Joey Abell in addition to triumphs over Clifford Etienne, David Izon and Javier Mora.
Briggs vs. Oquendo Fight Week promises to excite with week-long events that will lead up to this historic night. Among the boxing royalty invited to Fight Week and Fight Night are Evander Holyfield, Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, Roy Jones Jr, Michael Moorer, Riddick Bowe and more.
