Manchester, Lancashire, UK (Maj 4, 2016) – Undefeated heavyweight sensation Hughie Fury will appear in a featured bout on the undercard of the world heavyweight championship rematch between unified champion Tyson Fury and Wladimir Klitschko Sobota, Lipiec 9 w Manchester Arena.

The bout will take place in front of more than 21,000 fans and be seen by millions more around the world on various television outlets.

Widely regarded as one of the best young heavyweights on the planet, the 21-year-old Fury has an outstanding 20-0 ledger with 10 wygrywa przez nokaut. W kwietniu 30 w Londynie, Fury scored a clear-cut technical decision over tricky switch hitter Fred Kassi to capture the WBO Intercontinental championshipwhen the fight was stopped early due to an accidental clash of heads. Since turning pro in March 2013, Fury’s been matched tough and defeated the likes of Andriy Rudenko, George Arias, Dominick Guinn and the aforementioned Kassi.

Having already faced quality opponents while many young heavyweights build their records against subpar opposition, Fury’s team is looking for another tough challenge Lipiec 9.

“Hughie Fury is taking fights that no other heavyweights are taking,” said Peter Fury, his father and trainer. “Forget being built up on handpicked opponents, we’re facing guys that are here to win and give us a hard fight. He’s coming off of back to back tough fights. Look at his career so far compared to other prospects. W ubiegłym roku, we scored a clear win over Andriy Rudenko, kto był 25-1 and his only defeat came via controversial decision to current heavyweight champion Lucas Browne. That will give you an idea where he’s at and I believe he’s the next force in the heavyweight division.”

Fury’s opponent will be announced shortly and the bout will be scheduled for either ten or twelve rounds.

Proste prawa i proste szóstki: Historia Joey Veazey

Zostaw komentarz
Joey Veazey champion.jpg
Do natychmiastowej publikacji
Baltimore, MD (Maj 3, 2016) - W filmie Coach Carter, Samuel L.. Jackson żartował swojemu zespołowi zmagających się akademickich graczy: „Jesteście studentami-sportowcami, uczeń jest pierwszy ”.
Niestety, Niektórzy wybitni sportowcy uważają, że ich talenty zastępują występy w klasie. Doprowadziło to do tego, że szkoły średnie i uczelnie ostrzegały lub zawieszały graczy, jeśli ich oceny nie uległy poprawie.
Przeciwnie, są tacy, którzy są dumni z tego, że wcielają się w sportowca i studenta; takie jak 17-letni Joey Veazey.
Znany pod pseudonimem „Bazooka Joe” Veazey jest wielokrotnym mistrzem amatorów i zdobył międzynarodowy ranking. W czwartekwieczór, Veazey walczy z Chrisem Perkinsem o mistrzostwo wagi średniej juniorów ze Wschodniego Wybrzeża w Michael’s Eighth Ave w Glen Burnie, MD jako wyróżniony zawodnik na karcie promowanej przez Baltimore Boxing.
Karta służy jako hołd dla Murraya „Bushwacker” Smith Sr., ojciec Jake'a Smitha z Baltimore Boxing. Bilety zakupione z wyprzedzeniem zaczynają się o godz $25, zarezerwowane miejsca są $35, zarezerwowane stoliki dla dziesięciu są $350, $50 Miejsca VIP i $500 Stoły VIP z 10 można kupić dzwoniąc 410-375-9175. Drzwi otwarte na 6:30 pm a walki zaczynają się o godz 8.
Przeznaczony do rywalizacji w jego 100th mecz, Veazy jest dużym sprzedawcą biletów w rejonie Baltimore i regularnie przyciąga duże tłumy, gdy wkracza do kwadratu. Jednak dla Veazeya, jest najbardziej dumny ze swoich osiągnięć poza ringiem, gdzie jest honorowym uczniem kończącym ostatni rok w Northeast High School.
W sierpniu, Veazey zapisuje się na lokalną uczelnię i specjalizuje się w inżynierii mechanicznej lub informatyce. Naraz, przygotuje się do swojego profesjonalnego debiutu, pracując nadal jako trener w Baltimore Boxing Club. Większość postrzega bycie wojownikiem lub studentem jako pełnoetatową odpowiedzialność, ale Veazey wierzy, że jego etyka pracy i skupienie się na pracy pomogą mu w dalszym doskonaleniu się na ringu i poza nim.
"Musisz być zdyscyplinowany na ringu iw klasie,- powiedział Veazey. „Wiem, że mam dużo na głowie, ale świetnie sobie radzę jako bokser, studentka i trenerka w Baltimore Boxing Club. Skupianie się i zwracanie uwagi na wykonywane zadanie pomaga mi w skupieniu się na tym, co robię w tym czasie. Ostatecznie, moim celem jest dalsze doskonalenie się z moimi naukowcami i zdobycie tytułu mistrza świata. Uważam, że oba są osiągalne i mogą stać się rzeczywistością dzięki ciągłej ciężkiej pracy ”.
Kowal, who has literally watched Veazey grow as a person and fighter during the last decade, has trained hundreds of fighters and considers Bazooka Joe one of his most special.
"Joey could’ve told himself boxing will be his everything because of how successful he’s been but he’s extremely humble and intelligent far beyond his years,"Powiedział Smith. “He literally goes from one task to another and excels at each of them. Whether he’s a world champion boxer, engineer, computer scientist or all of the above, Joey Veazey epitomizes what it means to be a well-rounded person and I’m very proud of him.”
W ko-feature, Upton Boxing’s Tyrell Boyd and 2016 Golden Gloves champion Aston Sykes will do battle for the Maryland State Middleweight title. Boyd jest byłym mistrzem wagi środkowej Wschodniego Wybrzeża i szuka swojego drugiego pasa, podczas gdy Sykes płynie na fali pewności siebie, zdobywając Złote Rękawiczki w jednym z najtrudniejszych regionów Ameryki.
Popularny Clayton Frazier walczy z Elvinem Rodriguezem w walce pomiędzy bokserami z Baltimore Boxing Gym. Frazier, który ma tylko dwie walki, jest ulubieńcem tłumu i ma nadzieję, że zdobędzie lokalne prawa do przechwalania się w czymś, co Smith nazywa „Bitwą pod Baltimore Boxing”.
Była gwiazda koszykówki Stefon „Showtime” McRay i przyszły profesjonalny wybitny Donald Wallace również pojawią się na karcie w oddzielnych walkach.

WBO Champion Amanda Serrano calls out IBF Champion Jennifer Han for a world title unification bout

Zostaw komentarz
W kwietniu 22, 2016, history was made in Puerto Rico’s professional boxing, when a female boxing match was the featured bout of the evening, held in the city of Trujillo Alto, where the four-time world champion in three divisions, Amanda ‘The Real Deal’ Serrano ( 28-1-1, 21 KO ) defeated the number 6th ranked, Edina ‘DNA’ Kiss of Budapest, Hungary by TKO in the fourth round.
Just a week later, IBF featherweight world champion, Jennifer Han of El Paso, Teksas, was also in a main event match in front of her people from El Paso, and defeated Colombian, Calixta Silgado via unanimous decision in a ten round fight.
“I think the timing is perfect!” Amanda Serrano said, “We both come from recent fights, both of us scored victories and are uninjured and in great condition. Women’s boxing and our fans deserve to see who is the best featherweight in a unification bout”.
Oni ( 14-3-1, 1 KO ) has fought her last four fights in her hometown of El Paso, Teksas.
“It’s funny because a few weeks ago I had my first fight in Puerto Rico, and have fought in the United States, Szwajcaria, Argentina and Dominican Republic. True Champions often leave their comfort zone to prove they are the real deal in boxing. Zawsze jestem gotowy,” Said Serrano, who is the current WBO featherweight World Champion.

On Target: Team Gunn goes 2-0 in Indiana!

Zostaw komentarz

 

Hackensack, NJ (Maj 3, 2016) – Undefeated middleweight Bobby Gunn Jr. and debuting cruiserweight Henry Stewart, both of Hackensack, NJ, scored victories last Saturday at the Tyndall Armory in Indianapolis, W.

Coming off more than a year layoff, Gunn Jr. met hardcore veteran Guy Packer. Gunn Jr., who was regularly in the gym during the layoff, was the sharper fighter. Packer, a 20 year pro that fought the likes of Cornelius Bundrage, Michael Oliveira, Dominique Dalton, J'Leon Miłość, Vernon Paris & Joe Greene among others, looked to use his experience against his 19-year-old foe. Gunn Jr. boxed well however, the bout was halted on multiple occasions due to issues with the ring and canvas. In the fourth and final round with Gunn Jr. hoping to close the show, there was yet another issue with the ring and the bout was sent to the scorecards early.

Wyniki były 39-37 twice and a head-scratching 38-38.

Gunn Jr is now 6-0 z 4 wygrywa przez nokaut.

Stewart, a cousin of the Gunn Family, made his professional debut one to remember by destroying Darrel Sohm in 25 sekund. A hard hook followed by a straight right put Sohm down and showed the boxing world that the 21-year-old Stewart enters the paid ranks with heavy hands.

“I’m very proud of my guys,” said Bobby Gunn Sr., a former IBA cruiserweight champion and Bare Knuckle Boxing Hall of Famer who manages and trains both fighters. “Little Bobby was working hard in the gym during the layoff and was fine tuning a number of things. He also grew into his body and is now a solid middleweight. Henry on the other hand is a good sleeper prospect. He’s has excellent power in both hands and will continue to improve in all aspects.”

The next bouts for Gunn Jr. and Stewart will be announced shortly.

Marston to Challenge Tshabalala for Her World Crown on July 2nd

Zostaw komentarz

Over the past week or so the World’s press have been focusing heavily on the recently announced 9th July Tyson Fury-Wladimir Klitschko WBO-WBA-IBO Unified Heavyweight Championships rematch. Quite rightly so, it’s a huge fight, however just one week earlier, an equally World significant unification bout is also set to take place right here in the United Kingdom.

 

Lipca 2nd, at the Arena UK in Grantham, Lincolnshire, Świat #15 and British #1 ranked Marianne Marston will not only be challenging South Africa’s World Boxing Federation (WBFed) Super Bantamweight World Champion Gabisile Tshabalala for her coveted crown, but will also be aiming to secure the World Boxing Union (WBU), Women’s International Boxing Association (WIBA) and Universal Boxing Organization (UBO) World accolades.

 

London based Marston, who was originally due to challenge Unathi Myekeni for the Bantamweight version of the WBFed strap back in December, that was until Myekeni was forced to withdraw following a hand injury, is cleary relishing the belated opportunity, jak ona wyjaśnić, kiedy mówiła wcześniej.

 

“I cannot thank WBFed President Howard Goldberg enough for making this happen, like me he was so dissapointed when Unathi (Myekeni) pulled out injured last year.

 

In addition to Howard, I would also lke to thank WIBA President Ryan Wissow, WBU President Don Lewis and Sebastien Pitois from the UBO, as they have been so supportive throughout my career, so to also challenge for their Championships really is so special for me.

 

I’m forty two now, so honestly thought after Unathi pulled out, that’s it for me, I’ll never get the chance to fight for a World title, OK that’s not quite true, I could have fought for a vacant title, but to me that’s just not good enough, Chcę walczyć z najlepszymi, I want to beat the World Champion.

 

I’ve seen video of Gabisile, when she fought Shannon (O'Connell) w 2013, but would very much like to find any video of her when she won the World title last year. I know how much I have changed, fight wise, ponieważ 2013 so really want to see if there are any changes to her style or tactics.

 

Z tego, co widziałem,, she’s a classy fighter, very quick hands. When she fought Shannon, she was mainly counter punching, which would suit me, but for some reason I have a feeling she will have a very different approach as a defending Champion.

 

Tak i tak, this will be a great fight for the fans, there’s such a contrast in our styles and in my view it’s those differences in style and tactical approach that will make this such a great fight to watch.

 

British boxing is booming, we have so many World Champions at the moment, Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, Kell Brook, Carl Frampton, Lee Selby, Liam Smith, Jamie McDonnell, Lee Haskins, Tony Moran, Craig Docherty, Terry Flanagan, Anthony Crolla, James DeGale and of course my old gym mate at the TKO, Billy Joe Saunders.

 

Obviously they’re all men, so I want to redress the deficit a little and join them, as well as be the first British Female boxer to be crowned World Champion since Jane Couch beat Jaime Clampitt for the IWBF title in 2004.”

 

Gabisile Tshabalala Vs Marianne Marston for the WBFed, WBU, WIBA and UBO Super Bantamweight Unified World Championship headlines the Russ Brown promoted AS GOOD AS IT GETS event at the Arena UK in Grantham, Lincolnshire, UK on Saturday 2nd Lipiec.
