Dignity Health Sports Park estarà obert als aficionats amb capacitat limitada, amb tots els convidats que es mantinguin distanciats socialment i que estiguin subjectes a les directrius de salut locals i estatals durant tot l'esdeveniment.

El Tijuana, Mexico native Nery (31-0, 24 KOs) became a two-division world champion in September as he won a wide unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Aaron Alameda to capture his WBC crown. The 26-year-old had held an 11-fight knockout streak entering that 122-pound title fight, establishing himself as a premier knockout artist at bantamweight during a run that included stoppages of former champions McJoe Arroyo and Juan Carlos Payano. Nery first became champion in 2017, when he went to Japan and stopped Shinsuke Yamanaka in his home country to capture the WBC bantamweight world title.

“This is one of the biggest fights of my career,” said Nery. “I am going to win this fight in spectacular fashion. I’m training hard every day to make sure I get the win on May 15. This is my time to make history for Mexico.”

The 24-year-old Figueroa (21-0-1, 16 KOs) returns to the ring after his most recent outing saw him stop Damien Vazquez in round 10 of their September 2020 clash. Figueroa applied his all-action style scoring knockouts over veteran contenders Moises Flores and Oscar Escandon to move his way up the 122-pound rankings. He captured the WBA’s interim super bantamweight title by stopping Yonfrez Parejo in April 2019, before eventually being elevated to “regular” champion. Figueroa has trained for this career-defining bout in Southern California, alongside his brother and former world champion Omar Figueroa.

Training camp out here in California with Joel Diaz has been amazing,” said Figueroa. “I’m in tremendous shape and I’ll be ready to go on May 15. This is really one of the best training camps of my career. I know Nery is a tough fighter, maybe my toughest test to date. Estic 24 ara, so it’s time for me to start fighting these world class fighters and prove to myself that I belong in there with the best fighters. I know Stephen Fulton is lined up for the winner of this fight, but I’m preparing 110% for Nery. I know he’s not just any fighter, so I’m doing everything I can to come away with the win on May 15.”

Ranked in the top five by all four sanctioning bodies at super bantamweight, Romà (27-3-1, 10 KOs) will look to continue on his path back toward another world title when he steps in the ring on May 15. The 30-year-old from Los Angeles most recently won an exciting 12-round unanimous decision over former champion Juan Carlos Payano last September. Roman first became world champion in 2017, when he stopped Shun Kubo for the WBA title. Roman would go on to unify titles by beating TJ Doheny for his IBF strap in 2019, before losing a narrow split decision to Murodjon Akhmadaliev in January 2020.

“I’m delighted to be fighting once again and can’t wait to step into the ring May 15 per SHOWTIME,” said Roman. “Ricardo Espinoza is a very tough fighter with a lot of heart. I know this fight is going to be another war and I’m fully prepared to go to battle. I’ve stayed in shape since my last fight, so fans can expect to see me throw a lot of punches. I’m going to make this fight a classic Mexican showdown.”

The 23-year-old Espinoza (25-3, 21 KOs) has fought professionally since 2015 and has won 15 del seu passat 16 fights heading into May 15. Fighting out of Tijuana, Mèxic, Espinoza dropped a bantamweight interim title fight to current world champion John Riel Casimero in 2019 via a 12º round knockout in a fight that was virtually tied on the cards. Espinoza bounced back with two straight victories, including his most recent triumph, a unanimous decision win over previously unbeaten Brandon Valdes last August.

“I’m training as hard as I ever have for this opportunity on May 15,” said Espinoza. “I feel strong and prepared for anything Roman is going to throw at me. I know that he’s an accomplished fighter, but I have all of the tools to be victorious and win an exciting fight that the fans are going to love.”

A Mayweather Promotions prospect from Sacramento, Qualif., Martínez (15-0, 11 KOs) has trained for this fight in Las Vegas, Nevada. The 23-year-old earned a career-best victory in his last outing, defeating veteran contender Claudio Marrero by unanimous decision in October on SHOWTIME. Anteriorment, Martínez added three stoppage victories to his record in 2019 to run up a seven-fight knockout streak heading into the Marrero fight.

“I’ve felt great in camp and have already been preparing hard for this opponent,” said Martinez. “My last fight was an incredible experience. The biggest thing it taught me is just because you’re winning, don’t fall asleep at the wheel. That’s the same mentality I’m taking into this fight. I proved in my last fight that I can box and can hang with the best in the sport. This is a side many haven’t seen because I’ve been decapitating my previous opponents. The world is going to see how much versatility I carry in my skill set. Maig 15 is another day in the office, and it’s time to work!"

El Tijuana, Mexico native Burgos (34-4-2, 21 KOs) has faced an impressive resume of top fighters throughout his extensive career, dropping world title bouts to Mikey Garcia and Hozumi Hasegawa, in addition to a draw in a 130-pound title tilt against Roman Martinez. The 33-year-old ended up on the short end of decisions in challenges of unbeaten champion Devin Haney in 2018 and undefeated Hector Tanajara in January 2020. Més recentment, he won a unanimous decision over Juan Ramon Bernal in March 2020.

This is another opportunity for me to show that I have a lot left to give in the ring,” says Burgos. “Martínez doesn’t have a strong chin, as everyone saw when he got dropped twice by Claudio Marrero in his last fight. I’ve been training hard and waiting for an opportunity like this. Fans can expect an explosive performance on May 15.

Michael Carbajal Still Champion

COLORADO SPRINGS, Volta. (Maig 3, 2021) – Five-time world champion, Hall of Famer and Olympic silver medalistMichael Carbajal may be recording the best victories of his life at the age of 43 as a retired boxer. Instead of receiving a beautiful belt or medal for his achievements, Carbajal now helps build character for countless Phoenix youngsters who may not have another way to get off the mean streets.

Carbajal loved boxing from the start, però, he didn’t have his first amateur match until he was 14, because his father, the late Manual Carbajal, a former Arizona Golden Gloves champion, wouldn’t allow his son to box until he was older. On the night of his first match, his father reminded Michael of something he said when he was only six: “I’m going to be world champion and retire as world champion.” Michael, per descomptat, didn’t remember what he said when he was only six, but the message has stayed with him throughout his life.

“I wanted to box since I was six,” Carbajal reminisced. “I didn’t understand why I couldn’t, but my father told me to watch and learn from my experiences in the gym and at tournaments. I waited until I was 14, working out in my backyard, as my father taught me the basics. I remember hearing about kids at tournaments with 100, 200 amateur fights. I only had around 100 (his reported amateur record is 94-9) as an amateur. I was new to the sport and took my losses as wins because I learned from every fight. I still remember my first amateur fight. It’s where it all started. I lost toKevin Davis. I entered the tournament against him with no fights and he had 32. I lost that fight and wanted to fight him again. I always wanted to fight the best. We fought two more times at the state championships (they split). 

“My most memorable fight was at the 1986 National Golden Gloves Championship. I still remember my opponent (a la final del campionat), Gary Harvey.  I’ll remember that fight for the rest of my life. I won every national tournament after that until 1988.”

Carbajal first got into boxing for the same reason so many others have for decades…a tough environment. He still lives in the La Nuevo (9º St.) neighborhood. “It was terrible here when I was 11 or so,” Carbajal explained. “I still live here, but it’s not as bad now. We had shootings and gangs across 3 o 4 blocks that separated us. I never left. I have so many friends from back then who were involved in drugs and shootings. I ignored everything because I was determined and desired to be world champion. Avui, people who knew me back then, dir: ‘You’re still Michael.’ My accomplishments were because I love boxing so much. En 1988, Carbajal was the United States amateur junior flyweight champion, who defeated Eric Griffin (co-captain of 1989 & 1991 World Amateur Championships), 5-0, in the final of the U.S. Proves Olímpiques, and then he won again at the U.S. Olympic Box-Offs by way of a third-round disqualification versus James Harris.

Carbajal traveled to Seoul, South Korea as a member of the 1988 USA Olympic Boxing Team. In the opening round, he edged hometown favoriteKwang-Soo OIh, 3-2, that likely came back to haunt him in the gold medal match against BulgarianIvailo Khristov, in which Carbajal lost, 5-0, in what many alleged was due to biased scoring.

The USA Boxing Alumni Association is open to anyone who has a love for boxing and would like to stay connected with amateur boxing.

To join the Alumni Association, simply register atalumni@usaboxing.org for a $40.00 per year membership fee. New members will receive a T-shirt, keychain and e-wallet.

Seven months after the Olympics, Carbajal turned pro February 24, 1989, taking a 4-round decision from future IBF light flyweight World ChampionWill Grigsby on the undercard of Carbajal’s idolRoberto Durán, who upsetIran Barkley in Atlantic City to capture the WBC middleweight World championship. Carbajal’s nickname, “Manitas De Piedra” (“Little Hands of Stone’) was out of respect to Duran, known as “Manos de Piedra” (“Hands of Stone”).  

During his illustrious 10-year professional career, Carbajal compiled a 49-4 (33 KOs) registre, highlighted by five world junior flyweight titles. His memorable trilogy withHumberto “Chiquita” Gonzalez started in 1993 with a unification fight. They became the first junior flyweights to earn $1-million purses, as well as becoming the first in their weight class to headline a pay-per-view event. Carbajal was decked in rounds two and five and he suffered from a bloody right eyebrow, until he unloaded a powerful right smack on Gonzalez’ chin. Gonzalez was unable to beat the count, Carbajal became unified world champion in what was later named 1993 Fight of the Year by The Ring magazine.

Numerous endorsements followed for Carbajal including Diet Pepsi. After making two successful title defenses, Carbajal suffered his first pro loss (32-0) en el seu 11º world title defense, i en 1994 Gonzalez won a 12-round split decision again. Carbajal and Gonzalez, appropriately enough, were inducted together into the International Boxing Hall of Fame, Class of 2006.

En 1999, Carbajal announced his second comeback and after three wins, he traveled to Tijuana to challenge 21-year-old WBO junior flyweight World championJorge Arce (20-2-1), who clearly took nine of the first 10 rondes, even though Arce had hit the canvas in round six. In the 11º ronda, Carbajal rocked Arce with a right that sent the Mexican flying into the ropes. RefereeRaul Caiz, Jr. stopped the fight, Carbajal was crowned world champion for the fifth time, and then Michael retired after the fight for good.

Carbajal retired with a 15-3 (10 KOs) record in world title fights, 9-4 against former world champions. His four pro losses were against world champions – Gonzalez (dues vegades), Mauricio Pastrana iJacob Matlala.  Known for never giving up, along with making a few remarkable comebacks, Carbajal was stopped only once, by Matlala.

Avui, Carbajal still lives in the same house (built in 1906) he grew up on 9º Street in Phoenix, operates a gym (built in 1911), and still gives back to his community.

“If I never boxed,” Carbajal said, “I think I’d be a counselor. I’m really good with kids. I went to college for two years, but I was too busy with fighting. I’ve always had unbelievable patience, unlike some other trainers and managers, who want to make a quick buck. If they (kids) stay in the gym – not even fighting – they will learn. It’s all about kids staying off the streets. It’s not as bad here as it was before and it’s great to be helping these kids. Some come here to box, others to just workout, and that’s all good. I’m in no hurry to have (train) a world champion, even if that’s my goal, and I concentrate on giving them time to understand.”

Everybody going to Michael Carbajal’s 9º Street Gym is treated equally from a new kid to 82-year-oldPaul Taylor, who has been going there for too many years to remember. Some people go there for reasons unassociated with boxing or working out. They go there if they need help, just about any kind.

“I remind kids of what we went through (in this neighborhood) and avoided,” Carbajal concluded. “Most fighters come from neighborhoods like this. It’s not about winning or losing, although we always want to win, it’s about life. We train anybody who comes in the gym. They learn discipline and that helps through their lives. We teach giving others respect. I’m old school. We don’t have air conditioning in the gym. It gets you in great condition. Ei, I trained in a tin shed in my backyard, que era 15 degrees hotter than outside (remember this is Phoenix where it gets in the 120’s).  I love it.

“I enjoy helping, not just to box, but to be good through their lives. The discipline they learn here will help. We’re building them for life.”

Arguably the greatest junior flyweight of all-time, Michael Carbajal is still winning

Team Ortiz moves on from disputed draw Feeling Confident Undefeated Lightweight Jamaine Ortiz Made Loud Statement

WORCESTER, Missa. (Abril 29, 2021) – Despite a disputed draw with unbeatenJoseph “Blessed Hands” Adorno (14-0-2, 12 KOs) last Saturday night in Kissimmee, Florida, lightweight prospectJamaine “The Technician” Ortiz (14-0-1, 8 KOs) displayed his vast skills and courage on ESPN+.

Recovering from two knockdowns (the first from an illegal punch behind the head) and still taking the fight to the promoter’s fighter, Ortiz won six of the eight rounds but, desafortunadament, he had to settled for an 8-round majority draw with (76-74, 75-75-75) Adorno.

Ortiz, fighting out of Worcester, Massachusetts, is the reigning WBC USNBC (NOSALTRES.) Silver lightweight champion, as well as a former WBC World Youth lightweight titlist.

“I didn’t fight my fight,” Ortiz evaluated his performance. “I fought too much instead of being ‘The Technician.’ Before the fight, I thought I was the B-side fighter and wanted to please the crowd. I didn’t realize that I was on the A-side (thanks to his promoterJimmy Burchfield) and the betting favorite. I was fighting a Top Rank guy and felt that I had to bring the fight to him. Muscle memory, Suposo, from back in the amateurs. I was fighting on his stage, so I put pressure on him. If the fight went the distance, I wanted to make sure the scoring was clear and obvious. I knew I’d break him down because I had better stamina and skills.

“I fought him too much, but I still thought I won the fight. The 76-74 score made sense. I won every round but the second and seventh (rounds of knockdowns).  I didn’t agree with the one judge who had him (Adorno) winning the sixth. He hit me behind the head in the third round and I was off balance. But the referee does his job and mine is to fight. Nothing I could do about it. The plan was to box him, going to the body, but not switch stances because it would expose me. I had to go to the body, always part of my plan, but I wasn’t ‘The Technician.’ Sometimes I switch stances without realizing it. I got clipped in the seventh round (uppercut that resulted in a standing 8 count) when I was switching for first time. I handled it like a pro. I got up and felt good. I survived the round by holding a few times and then I came back again.”

Burchfield, head of Classic Sports and Entertainment (CEO), knows Ortiz showed that he’s somebody lightweights will have to reckon with in the immediate future.

“Jamaine’s stock went up for the second fight in a row (last November he registered a sensational stoppage ofSulaiman Segawa (13-3-1, 4 KOs), who had never been previously stopped, in seventh-round on the Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, Jr. pay-per-event),” Burchfield added. “Adorno is an animal when he’s in control of a fight. Jamaine had to take control of the fight by being the aggressor but, as ‘The Technician, knowing when to fight and when to box. The punch in the second round was, definitivament, behind the head, clearly a foul, and it was more of a slip than a knockdown because he was off balance. If that punch was disallowed, Jamaine wins the fight, even if he had lost the round. He (Emil Lombardi) is a quality ref who made a mistake. Maybe he didn’t catch it because of the angle he had, which is why I’m a firm believer in instant replay, and It would have been ruled a non-knockdown.

“Going into the seventh, I thought Jamaine led by 2-3 points having taken five of the previous six rounds. Jamaine showed the world his endurance when he came back so strong in the eighth round. If the fight had been 10-round, or even 30-sconds longer, no disrespect to Adorno, Jamaine would have knocked him out. Jamaine is the real deal. He certainly proved he’s TV friendly after his last two fights and he deserves to be mentioned among the top 135-pounders in the world. Any takers?"

Ortiz’ managerDick Shappy, had mixed emotions after the fight, understanding that Ortiz raised the bar, even though he fought to a draw.

“I wish he had won,” Shappy remarked, “but a draw wasn’t too bad under the circumstances. I though Jamaine won the fight outright. If not for that illegal punch in the second, he won the fight on their scorecards. It still shouldn’t have been ruled a knockdown, more of a slip, because he was going forward and lost balance. It never should have been 10-8. Adorno would have lost if they had to go into the championship rounds. Jamaine was more skilled, he did a good job.”

Count no less than former Olympic gold medalist and 2-division World ChampionAndre Ward, who served as color commentator for Ortiz-Adorno, among those impressed by Ortiz.

“Ortiz outworked Adorno, sense dubte, and he never backed down,” Ward commented on air. “I want to see more of Ortiz!’

As entertaining as Ortiz-Adorno was – it may have stolen the entire show – it’s unlikely that there will be a rematch.

“I don’t think he wants to fight me again,” Ortiz reported. “He said something about maybe when we both have world title belts.”

Ortiz has taken advantage of the tremendous opportunities for worldwide exposure in his last two fights. His reward will certainly come, in time, moving up the ratings as people continue jumping on “The Technician” bandwagon.

Arreola’s workout took place at the Ten Goose Boxing Gym in Van Nuys, California where Arreola is participating in his second training camp with Goossen. Arreola’s first fight with Goossen saw the veteran former title challenger set numerous CompuBox heavyweight records in a narrow decision loss to Adam Kownacki.

Here is what Arreola and Goossen had to say Wednesday:

CHRIS Arreola

“I’m ready for this fight. I’ve been waiting for this fight for four or five months. This one is going to be a barnburner for sure.

“This fight is important for my legacy. I want to make the fans happy they bought this fight. I don’t fight for paychecks. I’m a fighter for the fans. So I hope they enjoy this fight and buy this pay-per-view.

“I love what I do. I’m a fortunate person to have been a fighter since a young age. I bleed boxing. I put my whole self out there every time I fight. I know that I owe it to the fans to give them a great fight.

“Defensively I’ve grown so much working with Joe. He’s taught me a lot about keeping my hands up and countering. He hasn’t reinvented the wheel, he’s just made sure the wheel is round.

“I was able to keep up the pace against Kownacki because I did everything I had to do in the gym. I could have given three more rounds at the end of that fight too. The fight is always won in the gym and we put all of the work in to win that fight. I thought I won that fight. Despite not getting the decision, it was a fun fight for me.

"Em sento genial. I’ve been working hard for months. I know that I have to make this a great fight for the fans and for myself. I know how crucial this fight is for my career.

“I don’t pay attention to the odds. If people want to make me the underdog, I’m comfortable with that. I’ve been an underdog my whole life.

“I’ve had some long layoffs before, so I know how to get back into it when the time comes. The sparring helps you know where your timing is at. That’s the best way to gauge where you’re at in your training camp.

“It’s a beautiful venue at Dignity Health Sports Park. There isn’t a bad seat in the house. Every time I go there I love to sit up there with all the fans and enjoy the fights. It’s going to be a fun night of boxing on May 1 and I can’t wait.”

JOE GOOSSEN, Arreola’s Trainer

“Chris and Andy are veterans. They’ve been around a longtime. They know how to turn on the switch when the time comes. We’re preparing for a great fight on May 1.

“When you have two guys of the same talent, how do you determine who wins the fight? It’s the fighter who’s in better shape. That’s the underlying thought process here. Both Chris and Andy have talent, but our goal is for Chris to be in the best shape possible. The difference plays itself out in those last few rounds of the fight.

“You’re going to have the best Andy Ruiz that we’ve seen in this fight. And we have the same on our side. Our team has been working hard as well. I don’t expect anything but a great fight. However many rounds this goes, que hi haurà focs artificials.

“We’ve been training for around four months but he hasn’t peaked too early because we’ve been consistent. Once we built up to a certain point, we’ve kept it there. He’s not worn out at all. This is what fighters are supposed to do. They’re supposed to be in the gym training.

“I’m very confident and calm heading into this fight, because Chris has been doing exactly what he’s supposed to be doing. That’s all you can ask for.”

Sampson Boxing Signs a Pair of Undefeated Dominican Prospects, Edwin De Los Santos and Luis Reynaldo Nunez, to Promotional Contracts

Sampson Boxing proudly announces the signing of a pair of undefeated 21-year-old Dominican prospects, super featherweight Edwin De Los Santos and super bantamweight Luis Reynaldo Nunez to promotional agreements.


A crow-pleasing puncher with tremendous will, the southpaw De los Santos (9-0, 8 KOs), from Santo Domingo, República Dominicana, started boxing at the age of eight and went on to win numerous national amateur championships in his boxing-rich homeland. At age 14, he joined the Dominican’s prestigious National Boxing Team and, a 18, made the move to professional ranks. De Los Santos has already captured the WBA Fedecaribe and WBC Latino Super Featherweight Championships in his young career.


“It motivated me seeing how so many other great Dominican fighters have reached places they never dreamed of under the guidance of Sampson Boxing,” said De Los Santos of the signing. I am committed to bringing another world championship home to my country, defending it with pride and courage as many times as possible and improving the economic situation of my family.”


Also a decorated amateur in the Dominican, Puerto Plata’s Luis Reynaldo Nunez started boxing at age six and went on to win a number of national and international championships all over the world as a member of the elite Dominican national team. A fan-friendly pressure fighter with heavy hands, Nunez turned professional at 18 under the guidance of manger Antonio Tineo and trainer Vicente De La Cruz, best known as the trainer of former unified world champion Jeison (el Banana) Rosario. Nunez won the Dominican Republic Super Bantamweight Championship in 2019 and has successfully defended it once. He added the WBA Fedelatin Super Bantamweight Title in December of last year with a fourth-round stoppage of Nicaragua’s Giovanni Gutierrez. Gutierrez had previously gone the 10-round distance with top contender Mike Plania.


“I am grateful to Mr. Antonio Tineo, who is like a father to me. I’m also excited to work with Sampson Boxing and all the opportunities he wins for his fighters. I will be a proud world champion from the Dominican Republic. I also want to improve the economic situation of my family (grandparents and parents) who have given everything to me without asking for anything in return.”


A staunch advocate of Dominican boxing, Lewkowicz has expertly guided the careers of esteemed Dominican champions Jeison “Banana” Rosario, Javer “El Abejón” Fortuna, Jonathan Guzmán, Dahiana Santana and Katy Wilson Castillo. He was introduced to Tineo through his long-time Dominican talent scout Cesar “Manguita” Mercedes.


Lewkowicz says he’s looking forward to working with the two young talents and to partnering with Tineo on several more promising fighters in the future.


“I have always supported Dominican boxers and have helped several of them become world champions,” said Lewkowicz. “I thank Cesar Mercedes for introducing me to Mr. Tineo and I look forward to helping establish several more Dominican champions during our work together. Both Nunez and De Los Santos are elite-level fighters who will be contenders in their divisions in the near future.”

Undefeated lightweight Jamaine Ortiz Takes on Unbeaten joseph adorno

The Technician” vs. “Blessed Hands”

This Saturday in Florida on ESPN+

WORCESTER, Missa. (Abril 19, 2021) – Rarely do undefeated prospects with double-digit victories fight each other because of the perceived risk like lightweightsJamaine “The Technician” Ortiz (14-0, 8 KOs) iJoseph “Blessed Hands” Adorno (14-0-1, 12 KOs) will do this Saturday night, Abril 24º, at Silver Spurs Arena in Kissimmee, Florida.

The 8-roundAdorno vs. Ortiz lluita, streaming live onESPN+, will be on the Top Rank card headlined (en ESPN) by WBO World featherweight championEmanuel Navarette (32-1, 24 KOs) defending his title against challengerChristopher Diaz (26-2, 16 KOs).    

Both young lightweights were decorated USA amateur boxers who are rising stars in arguably boxing’s most loaded division.

“I’m counting the days,” Ortiz said about his fight with Adorno. “I’ve trained hard my whole life. When an opportunity like this comes, I’m ready to prove myself. I think I’ll have a spectacular performance and impress the crowd like I usually do. I’m fighting on another big card; I’m going up not down.”

The reigning WBC USNBC (NOSALTRES.) Silver lightweight champion, in addition to being a former WBC World Youth lightweight titlist, the 24-year-old Ortiz recently cracked the top 40 in the WBC ratings at 31, and he’s also ranked No. 5 by the NABF.

Ortiz is coming off a sensational, high-profile knockout ofSulaiman Segawa (13-3-1, 4 KOs), who had never been stopped, in the seventh round last November on the Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, Jr. pay-per-view event.

The lone blemish on the 21-year-old Adorno’s pro record came in his last fight, back on January 11, 2020, when he fought an 8-round split draw withHéctor García (14-7-3).  Born in New Jersey and raised in Puerto Rico, Adorno lives and trains in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Ortiz surprisingly may have what amounts to a “hometown” advantage, at least in terms of vocal support, largely because many of his New England friends and family are flying down to Florida to attend the fight, along with his Florida fans.

“My father lived in Florida and I visited him during summers, and I went to second grade there,” Ortiz explained. “I have a big family-base in Orlando. A lot of family and friends from Worcester are going to the fight. I’m surprised by how many people will be there for me.”

Ortiz is promoted byJimmy Burchfield’s Classic Entertainment and Sports (CES), which will co-promoteAdorno vs. Ortiz with Top Rank, i gestionat perDick Shappy

“Both teams need to be complimented for taking a fight like this.” Burchfield commented. “Two undefeated, young boxers like this fighting each other is what real boxing is all about. Bob Arum, Carl Moretti Team Top Rank have been friends of mine for so many years.

“We turned Jamaine pro and through all these years as a promoter (32nd), pot ser, every decade or so you have a special one like Jamaine, who can become the future of boxing. When you find a fighter who can box, punch and set-up his punches very well, he’s special and I feel Jamaine is special like that, not only in the ring but outside as well. I don’t worry about getting a late-night call about him. He is a total professional, no distractions with him. Jamaine works as a carpenter, he’s learning the real estate business, and he’s also looking into the medical field in the future. He reminds me ofSugar Ray Leonard iOscar De Lay Hoya.  He has that charisma and is a technician in the ring. A very smart kid in the ring. He has a spectacular team of managers and trainer to work with, too.”

“For many years,” Shappy added, “our management team (IncloentEddie Imondi) had been searching for the right boxer to come along that had the potential to be a world champ. We are very confident that we have found that person, Jamaine ‘The Technician’ Ortiz.”

Rare as it may be in boxing, the reward is ultimately worth the risk for these legitimate fighters, Ortiz and Adormo.

DON KING DEMANDS HEAVYWEIGHT CHRISTOPHER LOVEJOY TO NOT FIGHT MAHMOUD CHARR ON MAY 15 IN GERMANY

Deerfield Beach, Fla. (Abril 19, 2021)—Hall of Fame boxing promoter Don King has sent a Cease & Desist letter to undefeated heavyweight boxer Christopher Lovejoy, claiming he is under an exclusive promotional agreement with Don King Promotions and not permitted to enter any future fights without King’s consent.

Recent media reports have stated that Lovejoy is currently in Germany and has agreed to face the WBA champion in recess Mahmoud Charr on May 15 in Hamburg, Alemanya.

Trevor Bryan recently won the WBA heavyweight title after Charr disregarded the WBA and was not allowed in the United States due to Homeland Security visa denial of the Syrian.

The letter demands that Lovejoy (19-0, 19 KOs), who had previously announced his retirement from boxing, not participate in the bout with Charr or any other future bout or opponent.

“It is unconscionable, illegal, and unethical for you to participate in this May 15, 2021 bout or any bout without DKP’s expressed, written permission and consent,” the letter from King’s lawyer’s states. “Participating in any bout without DKP’s expressed written consent is … willfully breaching the Promotional Agreement and exposes those you have entered into agreement with for your services as a professional fighter to extreme legally liability, as they too are aware that you are under contract to DKP.”

The letter goes on to state, “If you have in fact signed to fight Charr as you proclaim and has been reported in these media reports, you have intentionally, willfully, and maliciously breached your exclusive, world-wide promotional agreement with DKP.”

Lovejoy, 37, lives and trains in Las Vegas. Tots 19 of Lovejoy’s pro fights since February of 2016 have taken place in Tijuana, Mèxic.

“Cruïlla de camins: resultats de doble capçalera de N.H.: Kendrick Ball, Jr. hits home run vs.. Bryan Vera

Resultats "Crossroads" de New Hampshire

DERRY, N.H. (Abril 18, 2021) -Ex-campió de pes mitjà de Nova AnglaterraBall de Kendrick "Peppa", Jr. va representar la millor actuació professional a l’esdeveniment principal d’ahir a la nit contra perillososBryan "El guerrer" Vera a la part nocturna de la capçalera doble-dia "Crossroads", presentat per Granite Chin Promotions, al New England Sports Center de Derry, Nova Hampshire.

El pla previ a la lluita es va seguir com a Ball (16-1-2, 11 KOs) caixonat i mogut, mentre que Vera (28-17, 18 KOs) pressió aplicada, des de la campana d'obertura. Ball va prendre el control a la segona ronda, quan es va quedar a la butxaca, eliminant combinacions nítides. Ball va disparar combinacions més efectives a la tercera ronda quan Vera començava a perseguir el seu rival. Ball va començar a moure's al voltant de l'anell i a lluitar des de l'exterior al quart i es va mantenir en els dits del peu la resta de la lluita.

Ball va guanyar una decisió unànime de vuit rondes (79-73, 79-73, 78-74) per convertir-se en el Consell Mundial de Boxa (CMB) USNBC (Estats Units) Super campió de plata de pes mitjà.

“Aquesta va ser la meva millor lluita, a causa de qui vaig lluitar, i la magnitud de la lluita,”Va comentar Ball. “El pla era fer box i moure's perquè era molt més petit i lent. De vegades vaig xocar, quan vaig saber que no em feia mal, però no hauria d’haver assumit els riscos ”.

Vera, de 39 anys, no és el mateix combatent que va guanyar tres campions del món diferents:Andy LeeSergio Mora (dues vegades) iSerhiy Dzinziruk.  El texà ha de decidir si és hora de penjar finalment els guants.

“Va ser increïble, sens dubte, el nostre millor programa fins ara,”Granite Chin’sChris Traietti declarat després de l'espectacle. “Ens sentim molt bé en intensificar per donar aquests combatents, sobretot els locals, una plataforma per actuar davant dels fans. Crec que molts promotors s’han quedat mandrosos. Ens van donar un carril i Granite Chin ho va aprofitar. Aquest va ser el nostre quart espectacle amb fans durant l'any passat. Brian va lluitar molt i és un noi fantàstic, però no és el mateix tipus que era el 2011. Ha de pensar què farà.

“Granite Chin torna aquí al juny 26º amb una altra doble capçalera. L’espectacle de la tarda serà el Granite Chin Invitational per als boxadors d’elit oberts. Amb els Guants d'Or de Nova Anglaterra cancel·lats de nou, hi ha un buit per omplir. Si els promotors ajudaran els aficionats, Segur que ho faré, a partir de juny 26º."

DesafiadorMarquès Bates (8-4, 6 KOs) destronat campió defensor del pes welter de New HampshireRyan DiBartolomeo (3-2-1, 1 KO) mitjançant una aturada de la sisena ronda en una divertida co-funció. Un dret devastador de Bates li va donar la nova corona, ja que l'àrbitre ni tan sols comptava, ja que el metge de l'anell va entrar ràpidament a l'anell.

Larry "Hitman" Pryor va contractar el contracteScott Lambert i va perdre poc temps ocupant-se dels negocis per convertir-se en el campió de pesos creuers de New Hampshire. Pryor va aprofitar la seva alçada decisiva i va aconseguir avantatges, tancant l'espectacle amb un ganxo esquerre perfectament llançat que va enviar Lambert a la tela. Lambert va aconseguir superar el compte, però l'àrbitre va aturar la baralla a la meitat de la primera ronda quan va veure Lambert balancejant-se d'anada i tornada sobre les cames de goma.

Lanky esquerràFrancis "El tanc" Hogan (5-0, 5 KOs) es va graduar ahir a la nit amb una brillant actuació en contraLarry "Slo Mo" Smith, qui era a la seva 60º lluita professional. Hogan va derrocar Smith a principis de la tercera ronda i va atrapar al texà a la fi de la mateixa ronda amb una combinació d'esquerres al temple. Smith va guanyar el compte, però no va poder respondre al timbre de la quarta ronda, i Hogan, de 20 anys, es va convertir en el nou campió júnior de pes mitjà de New Hampshire.

Ex campió dels pesos pesants de Nova AnglaterraJustin "Tren boig" Rolfe (5-2-1, 4 KOs) es va posicionar per un altre N.E.. títol amb un eliminatòria espectacular deAlfredo “So” Trevino (9-9-1, 1 KO). El Rolfe de 263 lliures, lluitant fora de Fairfield, Maine, va carregar contra el timbre a la campana i va adormir el seu oponent d’Arizona al seu racó, quan es va comptar amb la marca de 20 segons.

El membre més nou de la família Fightin ’Whitley de l’oest de Massachusetts, l'invicte pes welterDenzel Whitley, va aconseguir la seva quarta victòria amb el seu quart eliminatòria. Va perforarAquilandro Brandao al final de la primera ronda i l'àrbitre va aturar la lluita.

El invicteJahye Brown (9-0, 7 KOs) va aconseguir el títol vacant de pes mitjà júnior de l'ABF Athletic amb una dura i disputada decisió unànime de vuit rondes sobre un rival mexicà,Potes dormint (12-4-1, 9 KOs).  The two fought toe-to-toe from the opening bell and Brown landed the more effective punches inside to earn the victory.

Promising middleweight prospectJulien “Black Dragon” Baptiste va millorar a 2-0 with his second knockout, blasting outBruno Dias in the third round.

Fighting for the first time in more than eight years, Fall River, MA welterweightDustin Reinhold (6-4, 2 KOs) won a 4-round unanimous decision over pro-debutingAntonioAndreozziin what can best be called a rough and tumble match

Mitjà júniorCarlos Castillo’s professional debut was a gem as the Holyoke, MA fighter droppedTheo Desjardon dues vegades, the last closing the show late in the first round.

“Cannon” Berry stops Ibarra in 5

UBO All-America Welterweight ChampionBrandon “The Cannon” Berry (21-5-2, 13 KOs) successfully defended in the afternoon card’s main event, superant un inici lent en què es va animar a aturar el rivalGael Ibarra (5-3, 4 KOs) a la cinquena ronda.

Berry va acabar la lluita al cinquè, quan va descarregar dos bombs de cops de puny sense resposta sobre un Ibarra atrapat fins que l'àrbitre va deixar la baralla.

"M'alegro que no hagi estat una lluita de 4 rondes,”, Va dir Berry després de la baralla. “Era un noi fort. Ho sentia. Em va posar a prova. Vull donar les gràcies a la meva família i amics d’aquí, i Granite Chin i tothom que participa en la promoció ".
