Fortuna revient avec un KO impressionnant sur Cabrera autrefois invaincu

Laisser un commentaire
Samedi nuit devant une foule réservée aux places debout au centre commercial Sambil à Saint-Domingue, République Dominicaine, ancien champion du monde des super poids plume Javier “Le Abejón” Fortuna est revenu à l'action avec une impressionnante éruption en deux tours de sa compatriote dominicaine Marlyn Cabrera.
Dans son premier combat depuis une défaite surprise en juin dernier contre Jason Sosa qui lui a coûté son championnat du monde WBA Super Featherweight, Fortune (30-1-1, 22 KOs) a chuté Cabrera deux fois au deuxième tour, provoquant l'arrêt. C'était la première défaite de Cabrera en tant que professionnel.
La victoire de Fortuna était l'un des trois combattants de boxe Sampson à gagner Samedinuit.
Jeison dominicaine invaincue de 21 ans “Banane” Chapelet (12-0, 9 KOs) détruit Carlos Jairo Cruz, ancien invaincu (maintenant 17-1, 11 KOs) en deux tours et le super poids plume Abraham de 22 ans “Super” Nova a déplacé son dossier à 3-0, 2 KO avec un KO au quatrième tour contre Willy Morillo.
Fortuna avait l'air vif lors de son retour, mettant la puissance et la vitesse explosives qui font de lui l'un des combattants les plus excitants de toute la boxe. Avec la victoire sur Cabrera dans les livres, l'ancien champion gaucher cherchera désormais à retrouver son statut de championnat.
Promoteur de Fortuna, Sampson Lewkowicz, dit que son combattant a deux options à considérer pour son prochain combat.
“Ensuite, nous chercherons soit un combat éliminatoire pour le candidat obligatoire de l'IBF pour combattre Jose Pedraza, soit nous chercherons à affronter le vainqueur de Jason Sosa vs. Stephen Smith à Monaco le Novembre 12,” a déclaré Lewkowicz. “Javier veut redevenir champion et il combattra n'importe qui pour y arriver.”
Chapelet, un récent signataire de Sampson Boxing à un accord promotionnel à long terme, est un ancien amateur avec une richesse de talent de boxe. Cruz n'avait aucune chance contre le cogneur basé à Saint-Domingue.
“Jeison est une future star et je suis heureux de l'avoir dans mon écurie,” continué Lewkowicz. “Je vais lui obtenir un visa pour combattre aux USA et payer ses impôts IRS, ce que je fais pour tous mes combattants.”
Nova, qui est né en Caroline, Puerto Rico, aux parents dominicains, est allé 167-11 avec 60 KO en amateur, gagner la 2014 Ressortissants américains, la 2014 Coupe du monde indépendante en République dominicaine, L'or au 2014 Tournoi Cheo Aponte, et la 2015 Qualifications olympiques. Il est également cinq fois champion de New York Golden Gloves.
“Abraham a fait de bons tours et a obtenu le KO sur un vétéran avec plus de combats,” a déclaré Lewkowicz. “Je suis satisfait de sa performance et des améliorations qu'il continue de montrer à chaque combat. C'est une perspective forte avec un avenir radieux.”

À partir de 2008 à 2010, “Juanma” was one of the top pound-4-pound fighters in the world, but he hasn’t fought dans deux ansheading into his much anticipated confrontation with his fellow countryman Vázquez, Jr.
“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. Maybe the agility I had four or five years ago isn’t quite the same, true, but at the same time I am more mature and much more calm and more intelligent in the ring. I definitely feel that I am a better fighter than ever before.”
Vázquez, Jr. (24-6-1, 19 KOs), the son of the great three-time division world champion Wilfredo Vázquez, fights out of Bayamón whose best known boxing son is late Hall of Famer Héctor “Macho” Camacho. Vázquez became the vacant WBO super bantamweight world champion in 2010, knocking out previously unbeaten Marvin Sonsona (14-0-1) dans le quatrième tour.
“I think my opponent is a very persistent fighter and a person who will do anything to meet his goals, even though that will make him behave improperly,” López added. “I think it will be a very aggressive fight, more of a brawl, and I’m sure the night of the fight I will be the stronger fighter. I will dominate him, round by round, 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.”
