Adam Lopez vs. Roman Ruben Reynoso: 10-round bantamweight bout

The steadily improving Lopez, now trained by Houston-based Ronnie Shields, will be making his fourth ShoBox start since March 2015. In his first three, he defeated previously unbeaten prospects (combined record: 44-0-2) on each occasion.

 

Последно Февруари. 19, 5-крак-7, 25-year-old Lopez captured a career-best, highly competitive 10-round decision over Mario Muñoz (16-0-1) на Мексико. Lopez survived a nasty cut over his right eye to win by the scores of 98-92 и два пъти 97-93. In his other fights on ShoBox, Lopez won a (then personal-best) 10-round majority decision over DominicanEliecer Акино (17-0-1) юли 17, 2015, and by second-round knockout over Пабло Круз (11-0) за март 13, 2015.

 

Regarding his upcoming fight against Reynoso, Лопес каза, “Everything is good. I’m starting to turn up my sparring. I have switched trainers to Ronnie Shields в Хюстън. I see a lot of improvement since my last fight.

 

“Reynoso is a good fighter from Argentina. He is in Canada now, so I am sure he is getting good sparring there. He is kind of wild, but guys like that are hard to fight because you don’t know where the punches are coming from, but we will be prepared for anything.”

 

Born in Phoenix and raised in Los Angeles, Lopez moved to San Antonio at 15. Отишъл 125-23 in the amateurs and won six national championships before turning pro at 21 през февруари 2012.

The 25-year-old Reynoso brings a 10-fight winning streak into his United States and ShoBox дебют. A five-year pro, the South American lightweight champion fought his initial 18 fights in Buenos Aires before winning his last fight and lone start this year on a decision over Cristian Arrazola последно Май 20 в Канада. Reynoso’s lone defeat came in his fourth fight.

 

“Everything is going well in training camp,’’ Reynoso said. “We know that Lopez is tall for 122 pounds and he has good hand speed. He has a good name and we will try to learn more in the next few weeks.

 

“This is a big opportunity for us and we will do our best. This is a big fight and we know we have to win. С победа, we would hope to get a world title opportunity.’’

 

Ronald Ellis vs. Julius Jackson: Eight-round middleweight bout

Ellis gets an immediate opportunity to regain his winning ways after taking a sizeable jump up in class and boxing an eight-round draw with hard-hitting Джери Одъм в неговата Февруари. 19 ShoBox дебют. A spirited, close contest throughout was scored 78-74 for Ellis and 76-76 парче. The draw snapped a four-fight-knockout streak for Ellis, who’s won all 10 of his knockouts inside two rounds (eight in the first) since turning pro in 2011.

 

“This is going to be another coming out party for me,’’ the 5-foot-11, 25-year-old Ellis said. “The last fight was a draw. I had some problems with my hand, but I’m back and this is a step for me. Hopefully he comes to fight. I hope he brings it 100 percent because I am bringing 200 на сто.

 

“I am glad to be on ShoBox отново. I showed the fans a little bit in my last fight. They can expect the same thing but a little bit more on Юли 22.''

 

Jackson is making his second ShoBox начало. In his debut – and initial go in the U.S. – the older brother of Клозет and son of former two-division world champion Джулиан „Ястребът“ Джексън registered two knockdowns en-route to a ninth-round TKO over Jonathan Nelson (19-2, 10 Нокаута) Декември. 20, 2014.

 

Much like Ellis, Jackson is also getting a quick-fix chance to redeem himself and get back on the winning track. Но, unlike Ellis, Jackson изгубенhis most recent fight. His perfect record and 19-fight winning streak ended when he lost by second-round TKO to now top-rated super middleweight contender Jose Uzcategui последно Октомври. 6.

 

“I’m looking to redeem myself and come out with a win,’’ said the 6-foot-2 Jackson, който ще навърши 29 на Август. 1. “This is my second ShoBox fight and I’m excited to get back to let the world see my talent. I’m getting better, my training has been good. I expect to be in with another really good fighter. It should be a great fight.’’

 

A 2008 Olympian for the Virgin Islands and a pro since January 2009, Jackson is fighting for the third time in a row in the U.S.

 

O’Shaquie Foster vs. Роландо Chinea: Eight-round featherweight bout

O’Shaquie (pronounced “oh-SHACK-ee”) Foster is making his third appearance on ShoBox. Последно Февруари. 19, he began to live up to expectations when he rebounded from a sub-standard performance in his ShoBox дебют (an eight-round decision loss to Samuel Seah през ноември 2015) to register a seventh-round TKO over previously undefeated Lavisas Williams (8-0-1).

 

Foster, 22, dropped southpaw Williams four times – in the second, third, fourth and seventh rounds. Three of the knockdowns appeared to result from a push, but Williams’ gloves touched the canvas each time so they went into the books as knockdowns. After the final knockdown in the seventh, the fight was stopped at 52 секунди след началото на кръг.

 

“Everything is going good,’’ Foster said. “I’ve been doing a lot of conditioning. I am in the best shape of my life. Chinea has a good jab and I know he will be in a good shape.

“Ever since I moved to Virginia to train, my conditioning, mentality and confidence has gone way up and that was the difference from my first fight to my last fight on ShoBox. На Юли 22, I will be even that much better.’’

 

A highly decorated amateur standout, the 5-foot-8½ inch Foster advanced to the 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials where he lost to unbeaten pro prospect, Joseph "Jo-Jo" Diaz. Преди това, Foster was a 2010 PAL Национален шампион, a five-time Ringside National Champion and two-time National Junior Golden Gloves Champion.

Chinea, a 5-foot-8, 25-годишният, прави си ShoBox дебют. After going pro in November 2011, той отиде 10-0-1 before losing an eight-round decision to Ismail Muwendo през април 2015. He’s won two straight since, including a six-round decision over previously undefeatedLadarius Miller (след това 9-0) в последния си двубой от Февруари. 16.

“I treat every opponent the same,’’ Chinea. “I give everything I got and I leave it all in the ring. I know Foster was a good amateur. I know he can box and I know he has some pop.

 

“This is the moment I’ve dreamed about since I started boxing at 14. My main goal is to tune out the crowd and win. I want to be a main event fighter on SHOWTIME and this is the first step.’’

Khiary Gray-Pitts vs. Ismael Garcia: Eight-round super welterweight bout

Gray-Pitts, 23, will be boxing on ShoBox за първи път. Ambidextrous with quick hands and feet, Gray-Pitts turned pro in June 2014. He fought three times that year, eight times in 2015 (8-0, 8 Нокаута, seven in the first, one in the second) and this will be his third fight in 2016.

 

“I’m very excited,’’ Gray-Pitts said. “Now I get to showcase my skillset to the whole world. It’s something I’ve been waiting for. There’s still more that people haven’t seen yet when it comes to me. Now I get to see what I have the ability to do. I’m able to block [the crowd] out.

 

“The more pressure there is, the more relaxed I am. I don’t know a lot about my opponent, but it doesn’t matter as long as I go in there and get done what I need to get done.”

 

The 5-foot-9 Gray-Pitts is coming off a second-round knockout overQuinton Willis последно Май 13. In his outing before last, the previous Февруари. 19, won a 10-round decision over Eduardo Flores.

Garcia’s initial seven fights took place in Atlantic City, the last three in Philadelphia.

“It is my television debut, and everything we have been working on in my first 10 fights we will put together for this fight,’’ Garcia said. “This is SHOWTIME. Being on ShoBox is a long time coming for me. It’s what I’ve dreamed about since I started boxing. It’s his TV debut as well so I know he will be on top of his game. We will be preparing 100 percent for that and then some.

 

“I have seen a little of Gray-Pitts on tape. This will be my toughest test, as I will be his toughest test. When you have 13-0 борба 10-0, it will be a good fight.’’

The end came in the seventh round as Douglas landed a left hook to Collado’s head that stumbled Collado, forcing him to take a knee and never get back up.
I noticed that he has his head in the middle and that is unusual for a tall guy,” said Douglas. “So I was focusing on the right hand up the middle. I was able to finish him with a hard right, наляво, right combination.
Collado acknowledged, “He hit me with a good left hook and that broke my nose. I feel it was a close fight though, and I was in the fight up until he got me, but he is a good fighter.

An all-Brooklyn showdown between welterweight technicians Paulie “Magic Man” Malignaggi и Gabriel “Tito” Bracero highlights the undercard action on SHOWTIME BOXING on SHOWTIME EXTREME.

Redkach is an aggressive guy and I know he is coming to fight, but there is no way I leave that ring without my hand being raised. This is a fight where I can and I will make a major statement. I’m willing to fight whoever they put in front of me to inch closer to a world title opportunity and Юли 30 is another step in that direction. I tip my hat off to Redkach for giving me this fight, but this is my time to shine.”

The 39 годишна марка, който е притежавал няколко регионални титли, включително WBC Latino Super Middleweight и WBC Silver Interim Super Championship в средна категория, ще търси да извлече поредното разстройство на Август 6 и се хвърли в оспорването на титлата в полутежка категория.
