Fortuna Returns with Impressive KO over Formerly Undefeated Cabrera

Пакінуць каментар
У суботу night in front of a standing-room-only crowd at the Sambil Commercial Center in Santo Domingo, Дамініканская Рэспубліка, former world super featherweight champion Javier “Abejon” Fortuna returned to action with an impressive two-round blowout of fellow Dominican Marlyn Cabrera.
In his first fight since a surprise defeat last June to Jason Sosa that cost him his WBA World Super Featherweight Championship, Стан (30-1-1, 22 КО) dropped Cabrera twice in the second round, eliciting the stoppage. It was Cabrera’s first loss as a professional.
Fortuna’s victory was one of three Sampson Boxing fighters to win Суботаноч.
Undefeated 21-year-old Dominican super welterweight Jeison “Banana” Ружанец (12-0, 9 КО) destroyed formerly undefeated Carlos Jairo Cruz (зараз 17-1, 11 КО) in two rounds and 22-year-old super featherweight Abraham “Супер” Nova moved his record to 3-0, 2 KOs with a fourth-round knockout over Willy Morillo.
Fortuna looked sharp in his comeback bout, putting the explosive power and speed that makes him one of the most exciting fighters in all of boxing. With the victory over Cabrera in the books, the southpaw former champion will now be looking to regain his championship status.
Fortuna’s promoter, Sampson Lewkowicz, says his fighter has two options to consider for his next fight.
“Next we will either look for an elimination bout for the IBF mandatory contender to fight Jose Pedraza or we will look to face the winner of Jason Sosa vs. Stephen Smith in Monaco on Лістапада 12,” сказаў Ляўковіч. “Javier wants to be champion again and he’ll fight anyone to get there.”
Ружанец, a recent Sampson Boxing signee to a long-term promotional agreement, is a former amateur standout with a wealth of boxing talent. Cruz stood no chance against the Santo Domingo-based slugger.
“Jeison is a future star and I’m happy to have him in my stable,” працягваў Ляўковіч. “I will get him a visa to fight in the USA and pay his IRS taxes, which I do for all my fighters.”
Nova, who was born in Carolina, Пуэрта-Рыка, to Dominican parents, пайшоў 167-11 з 60 KOs as an amateur, перамогі 2014 USA Nationals, the 2014 Independent World Cup in the Dominican, Gold at the 2014 Cheo Aponte Tournament, і 2015 Olympic Qualifiers. He is also a five-time New York Golden Gloves Champion.
“Abraham went some good rounds and got the KO over a veteran with more fights,” сказаў Ляўковіч. “I am happy with his performance and with the improvements he continues to show in every fight. He is a strong prospect with a bright future.”

“I still think I have a lot left in the tank,” López confidently said from his Puerto Rican training camp. “This is the first fight of my career that I feel I owe to fans because of the history behind it. I don’t think there will be any rust because I have been training for many, months and I have been inside the gym working hard.

I will dominate him, тур за турам, and the first moment I have an opportunity to go for the kill, I will pressure him and won’t stop until I get a knockout.”
