Regarding his upcoming fight against Reynoso, אמר לופז, “Everything is good. I’m starting to turn up my sparring. I have switched trainers to רוני שילדס ביוסטון. 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. הוא הלך 125-23 in the amateurs and won six national championships before turning pro at 21 בפברואר 2012.
The 25-year-old Reynoso brings a 10-fight winning streak into his United States and ShoBox הבכורה. 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 אחרון מאי 20 בקנדה. 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. With a win, we would hope to get a world title opportunity.’’
Ronald Ellis vs. יוליוס ג'קסון: 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 ג'רי אודום בו פבואר. 19 ShoBox הבכורה. A spirited, close contest throughout was scored 78-74 for Ellis and 76-76 חתיכה. 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 אחוזים.
“I am glad to be on ShoBox שוב. I showed the fans a little bit in my last fight. They can expect the same thing but a little bit more on יולי 22.''
Jackson is making his second ShoBox התחלה. In his debut – and initial go in the U.S. – the older brother of ג'ון and son of former two-division world champion ג'וליאן "הנץ" ג'קסון registered two knockdowns en-route to a ninth-round TKO over Jonathan Nelson (19-2, 10 קוס) בדצמבר. 20, 2014.

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. רולנדו Chinea: Eight-round featherweight bout
O’Shaquie (pronounced “oh-SHACK-ee”) Foster is making his third appearance on ShoBox. אחרון פבואר. 19, he began to live up to expectations when he rebounded from a sub-standard performance in his ShoBox הבכורה (an eight-round decision loss to סמואל Seah בחודש נובמבר 2015) to register a seventh-round TKO over previously undefeated Lavisas Williams (8-0-1).
פוסטר, 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 שניות לתוך הסיבוב.
“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. ב יולי 22, I will be even that much better.’’
A highly decorated amateur standout, the 5-foot-8½ inch Foster advanced to the 2012 מתגורר בארה"ב.

He’s won two straight since, including a six-round decision over previously undefeatedLadarius מילר (לאחר מכן 9-0) בקרב האחרון שלו ב פבואר. 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
האפור-פיטס, 23, will be boxing on ShoBox בפעם הראשונה. 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 קוס, 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] הַחוּצָה.
“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.”

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 לחימה 10-0, it will be a good fight.’’

The combined record of the six fighters on the SHOWTIME telecast is an impressive 162-4-1 עם 113 knockouts.
An all-Brooklyn showdown between welterweight technicians Paulie “Magic Man” Malignaggi ו Gabriel “Tito” Bracero highlights the undercard action on SHOWTIME BOXING on SHOWTIME EXTREME.

A 10-round clash between once-beaten lightweight ג'ון Redkach and streaking Tevin פארמר, זוכת 14 straight, will open the SHOWTIME EXTREME telecast live at 7 p.m. ו/PT.
The יולי 30 event at Barclays Center comes on the heels of last Saturday’s potential Fight of the Year thriller between קית 'תורמן ו שון פורטר, a back-and-forth slugfest that generated the top grossing live gate and second-highest attended boxing event in venue history.
“This is the strongest card from top to bottom that I have promoted at Barclays Center,” said DiBella Entertainment President לו DiBella. “Every single fight is significant and competitive, and this is a great follow up from the tremendous success that boxing had with Thurman-Porter this past weekend.”
“This will be our 19ה אירוע אגרוף, but from top to bottom it’s arguably our best card yet,” said Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment CEO ברט Yormark. “We are excited to welcome undefeated Santa Cruz and Frampton to Brooklyn for the first time, a fight that could rival Barclays Center’s epic Thurman-Porter bout for Fight of the Year. It’s also a pleasure to welcome Brooklyn’s own Paulie Malignaggi back to Barclays Center for the fifth time and to host the return of Mikey Garcia after a two and a half year hiatus. יולי 30 is going to be another big night for BROOKLYN BOXING.”
“We are excited to be part of Mikey Garcia’s return to the ring. Before the layoff, he was a two-division world champion and considered one of the top boxers in the world. We know he is determined to reclaim his place among the elite,"אמר סטיבן אספינוזה, סגן נשיא בכיר & מנהל כללי, ספורט ואוטיים. “SHOWTIME has distinguished itself by delivering the most compelling matchups and the most important events in boxing all year long. There is no other network as committed to the sport, ו יולי 30 אירוע, from top-to-bottom, is a prime example.”
מייקי גךסיה vs. ELIO ROJAS
“I expect to pick up right where I left off,” Garcia told SHOWTIME Sports reporter ג'ים גריי last Saturday on CBS. “I was a world champion, I was undefeated, and I still am. I didn’t leave because I was injured. I think I’ll come back even better. I’m hungrier now than I was before.
“I just have to get one fight in. This first fight with Elio (רוג'אס) will be somewhere between 135 ו 140 קילו, but I want to fight at 135 and win a title there. I want to win a title there and keep going after champion after champion. Now that all that (uncertainty) is behind me I look forward to the next stage of my career. This next stage of my career will be what people remember me for.”
“Mikey Garcia is a great fighter,” Rojas said. “I want to thank him for this opportunity. We are both former WBC World Champions and I expect a great fight. עם זאת, all of the talk surrounding this fight has been about Mikey’s comeback and his future plans. I am no tune-up. This is also about me coming back and fighting again. He may be looking past me, but I am fully focused on him and securing the victory. I will do whatever I have to do to win, so I can move on and regain my world championship.”
גרסיה (34-0, 28 קוס), של ונטורה, קליפורניה., is 28-years-old and in the prime of his career. Once considered one of the top young boxers pound-for-pound in the world, he will make his first ring appearance since he retained the WBO 130-pound title with a 12-round unanimous decision overJuan Carlos Burgos בינואר. 25, 2014. גרסיה, the brother of renowned trainer רוברט גרסיה, has been victorious by knockout in 10 שלו אחרון 12 fights and holds impressive victories overRoman “Rocky” Martinez, חואן מנואל לופז, אורלנדו Salido ו Bernabe Concepcion.
רוג'אס (24-2, 14 קוס), of San Francisco de Macoris, רפובליקה הדומיניקנית, won the WBC featherweight world championship in 2009 with a 12-round unanimous decision over defending titleholder על ידי Takahiro ביפן. The 33-year-old successfully defended the title against Guty Espadas Jr. ב 2010, before losing the belt via unanimous decision to ג'וני גונזלס בחודש אפריל 2012. Since the loss to Gonzalez, Rojas moved up to lightweight, שבו הוא ניצח Robert Osiobe בחודש אוגוסט 2014.
TONY HARRISON vs. SERGEY RABCHENKO:
“I’m thrilled to return to the ring on this big stage for my first fight in Brooklyn, and I’m ready to put on a show,” said Harrison. “Fighting for a world title is my dream and I know that I have a challenge in front of me. I’m working hard in camp to get another knockout and to make my mark on the division.”
“This is the start of realizing my dream,” Rabchenko said. “America is the Mecca of boxing so it is a huge privilege for me to be asked to fight there. American fans like to see knockouts and I like to knock people out so I think they will like what they see. I think I can build a fan base there. I am hungrier than ever. I have not seen much of Harrison, but I am ready for anyone. People say he is a very good fighter with good power. I’m not worried. I have good power as well and I think I will have too much for him.”
במרחק של 25 שנים-ישן, הריסון (23-1, 19 קוס) has showed tremendous promise. He manufactured a 10-fight knockout streak from 2013 ל 2015 and proved he could recover from a loss when he dominated ססיל McCalla ל 10 rounds in October 2015 והפסיק פרננדו לוחם in impressive fashion in March.
Fighting out of Belaraus, Rabchenko (27-1, 20 קוס) is looking to put himself squarely into world title contention when he makes his U.S. הופעה ראשונה ב יולי 30. The 30-year-old is coming off stoppage victories over Walter Calvo במאי 2015 and Miguel Aguilar in February.
ההצגה מתחילה EXTREME:
PAULIE MALIGNAGGI vs. גבריאל BRACERO:
“I feel truly blessed to have yet another opportunity to fight in Brooklyn,” Malignaggi said. “I have known Tito a long time and I know he always comes to fight. We will give the Brooklyn fans a great appetizer before the terrific main event later that night in Barclays Center.”
“I’m looking to make a statement by winning this fight,” said Bracero. “Paulie and I have been friends since the amateurs and I’m thankful to have this opportunity, but he’s had his run. Now it’s time for me to have mine. This fight is going to change my life.”
אלוף עולם לשעבר ב 140 ו- 147 פאונד, the 35-year-old Malignaggi (35-7, 7 קוס) will return to the ring to fight at Barclays Center for the fifth time. He has faced a slew of big names throughout his career and has been victorious over the likes of Zab יהודה, Vyacheslav Senchenko ו Pablo Cesar Cano. נולד וגדל בשכונת בנסונהרסט של ברוקלין, “The Magic Man” was victorious twice fighting in his birth country of Italy last year after unsuccessfully challenging unbeaten דני גרסיה בחודש אוגוסט.
Another Brooklyn-native, Bracero (24-2, 5 קוס) comes off of a sensational one-punch knockout of rival דני אוקונור in their rematch last October. The 35-year-old owns victories over דמיטרי סליטה ו פאבל מירנדה in addition to his first triumph over the previously unbeaten O’Connor in 2011.
IVAN REDKACH vs. TEVIN FARMER:
“I am extremely happy to be back in the ring on a big show in New York,"Redkach אמר. “There are so many Ukrainian fans in New York and I am thrilled to have their support and will put on a great show for them. I want to thank Leo Santa Cruz and his team for having me in their camp as we both prepare ourselves to put on tremendous performances come יולי 30."
“I couldn’t be more excited about this fight,” Farmer said. “This is my Barclays Center debut and it is going to be a spectacular performance. I have called out anyone and everyone in the 130- pound division to no avail, so now I’m moving up to 135 to take on Redkach, one of the most feared punchers in the division. 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 יולי 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.”
נולד באוקראינה אך נלחם מתוך לוס אנג'לס, RedK (19-1-1, 15 קוס) began boxing at the age of six and has put together an impressive career since turning pro in 2009. The 30-year-old owns victories over טוני לואיס, סרגיי Gulyakevich ויעקובו Amidu. לאחרונה, Redkach knocked out Erick Daniel Martinez באוקטובר 2015 and fought to a draw with לואיס קרוז בחודש אפריל.
Representing the fighting city of Philadelphia, פרמר (24-1-1, 5 קוס) ניצח 14 bouts in a row since losing to unbeaten world champion ז'וזה Pedraza ב 2012. The 25-year-old has come on strong in recent years, upsetting previously unbeaten fighters such as Emmanuel Gonzalez, מלאך לונה ו קמילו פרז.

DiBella Entertainment signs Conn. Teenage Prospect Mykey Williams
NEW YORK, N.Y.. (יוני 28, 2016) – DiBella Entertainment has announced the signing of E. הרטפורד, Connecticut 18-year-old welterweight prospect Mykquan “Mykey” וויליאמס (1-0, 1 KO) לחוזה קידום מכירות בלעדי.
וויליאמס, who is currently finishing his junior year at A.I. Prince Technical School in Hartford, was a decorated amateur boxer with a 45-13 שיא חובב, highlighted by three gold-medal performances at the Ringside World Championships, in addition to winning the PAL Tournament and Silver Gloves Championships.
“I am thrilled to sign such a hungry, young prospect like Mykey Williams,” אמר לו DiBella. “Williams is an accomplished amateur and Jackie Kallen certainly has an eye for spotting great talent. He already has a growing fan base in the New England area and I am confident that he will quickly develop into a rising prospect.”
“Signing with DiBella was the best move for me,” Williams commented. “I’m excited to be fighting under the DiBella banner now. He’s a great promoter who will help me get to the world-class level in this sport. I’m just happy that the ball is finally rolling!”
Williams has already overcome tremendous obstacles during his young life, including the shooting murder of his father when Mykey was only one week old, and then his house burned down 10 years later.
פול צ'יכון, a 2014 קונטיקט. Boxing Hall of Fame inductee, has trained Williams since he was seven. “If anybody had a reason to go the wrong way, it was Mykey,” ציקון הוסיף. “But he’s a great kid who is a hard worker and is always happy with a positive attitude. He’s a boxer who can punch and when he sets up his opponent, היזהר, because he’s in big trouble. Mykey is a great finisher who moves well and has good defense. He’s a left-hander who goes to the body to breakdown his opponent. Mykey’s slick and hard to hit, but he’s also unique because he’s a naturally gifted athlete who could have excelled at any sport he chose.”
Although Williams made his successful professional debut on April 16ה at Foxwoods Resorts Casino in a card promoted by DiBella Entertainment, he will make his DiBella Entertainment debut ביום חמישי הקרוב לילה (יוני 30) at Foxwoods in a four-round bout.
