Promoter Sampson Lewkowicz Ordered to Begin Negotiating Guzman vs. Wake Fight for Vacant IBF Super Bantamweight Title

Sampson Boxing Fighters Score Four Impressive KOs in One Weekend
Promoter Sampson Lewkowicz has been given the go-ahead to begin negotiating a world-title fight between his fighter, explosive KO punching Dominican Jonathan Guzman, and the promoters for Japan’s Shingo Wake.
As per their rules for vacant championships, Lewkowicz, representing Guzman, die IBF #2 Superbantamgewicht, and Kyoei Promotions representing IBF #1 Wake were ordered to begin negotiations immediately and have them completed no later than Juni 2 dieses Jahres.
Guzman (21-0, 21 KOs) is hot on the heels of a sensational eight-round stoppage victory over Daniel Rosas last Friday, April 29, in Atlantic City, in a voluntary eliminator for the #2 spot in the ratings.
Wake (20-4-2, 12 KOs) earned his number one spot by scoring a unanimous decision victory over Thailand’s Mike Tawatchai last June.
Also per IBF rules neither boxer may compete in another match until they face each other.
Any boxer who is contracted with a promoter, a network, or a state, tribal or national commission to take another fight, or who is ill, injured, under a legal impediment which could prevent the bout from taking place in the opinion of the IBF/USBA, or on suspension at the time the Championships Chairman and the President order a bout under this rule shall be considered unavailable. We would then move to the next available contender. Neither fighter can take another fight until this fight for the vacant title is concluded.
In the event the camps cannot reach an agreement by Juni 2, the IBF will call for purse offers to be held to determine who will promote the bout, when and where it will be held.
The Guzman vs. Wake fight is more good news for Sampson Boxing, who had four different fighters score sensational victories over the weekend.
In addition to the aforementioned Guzman TKO, Sampson Boxing’s Jorge “Stößel” Lara scored a jaw-dropping KO 1 over former world champion Fernando Montiel at the StubHub Center in Carson, Kalifornien, am Samstag. Lara had the formidable Montiel on the deck four times in a brutal beatdown that only lasted 1:37.
The same night in the same venue, future world champion and boxing prodigy DavidEl Bandera Roja/Red FlagBenavidez destroyed capable New Yorker Phillip Jackson Benson by KO 2. Benavidez, jetzt 14-0, 13 KOs, had way too much firepower for Jackson, who entered the ring a respectable 16-2, 15 KOs. Das Ende kam am 2:07 with Jackson down and ruled unable to continue without a count being needed. A star on the near horizon in boxing, high network demand means that Benavidez will be back in action in July.
And in his professional debut am Freitag Nacht, on the Guzman undercard in Atlantic City, highly decorated amateur star Abraham “Super” Nova turned professional the right way by levelling Delaware’s also debuting Weusi Johnson by KO 1.
Nova, of Braintree, Massachusetts, began his professional career undefeated by putting Weusi to sleep at 2:56 der ersten.
I am looking forward to getting my superstar KO artist Jonathan Guzman his first title shot later this year,” Said Sampson Lewkowicz. “And I give my congratulations to all my other fighters who won by knockout this past weekend. Jorge Lara is back in a big way and headed for a world championship after beating Montiel. David Benavidez is going to become the youngest Mexican super middleweight champion in boxing history and Abraham Nova let the world know he’s here with his power punching. I am proud to be promoting every one of these fighters.

Interview With Promoter Floyd Mayweather: http://s.sho.com/1TCWl6u
WASHINGTON, D.C. (April 30, 2016) – Badou Jack retained his WBC Super Middleweight title in a controversial draw against Lucian Bute Samstag auf Showtime, setting up a fall unification with IBF champion James DeGale, who defended his IBF crown against Rogelio Medina in the opening bout of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast from the DC Armory.
Let’s unify the decision and see who the best is,” DeGale said to Jack in a post-fight interview moderated by SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray.
I’m ready in September, ready in August,” responded Jack.” “I’m ready whenever. Let’s do it where it makes the most sense financially.
Jack was the sharper fighter from the opening bell, committing to pounding the body of the former long-time titlist. Facing his second southpaw, Jack prevented Bute from fighting his game, smothering the Romania-born Canadian whenever he attempted to fight on the inside.
While Jack varied his punches with a diverse attack to the body and head, he slowed in the latter rounds and allowed Bute to climb his way back into the fight. Bute had perhaps his best round in the 10th and closed the show well, in der 11th und 12th. But it was too little too late for Bute, who escaped D.C. with what most felt was an undeserved draw.
Bullshit, but is what it is. Ask Bute as well, he knows what time it is,” sagte Jack, who landed nearly 100 more punches than Bute, einschließlich 61 Prozent seiner Macht Schläge, und 40 percent total of his total shots. “His punches weren’t hurting me. I feel I won the fight. Maybe I lost the last round. He’s a great guy and a great champion, but I know I won the fight.
It’s not Bute’s fault, it’s the judges. People saw I won the fight.
The 36-year-old Bute certainly looked like a fighter with plenty left in the tank, rejuvenated under trainer Howard Grant with his sights set on the new crop of stars in the super middleweight division.
“Es war ein enger Kampf,” Said Bute, who connected at just a 21 percent rate with his total punches. “Glaub mir, it was very close fight. My last fight with DeGale was very close, heute Abend was a very close fight. I showed everyone I’m still at the top.
James DeGale defended his IBF Super Middleweight World Championship with a close, hard-fought unanimous decision against Rogelio Medina in the opening bout of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast.
DeGale was supremely accurate, Landung 51 Prozent seiner Macht Schläge im Vergleich zu nur 23 for Medina, including a staggering 66 Prozent seiner Macht Schläge. The switch-hitting southpaw attacked from unorthodox angles, and was most effective when he snuck in a right uppercut to back up Medina. But the British titlista record 12th from Great Britainfailed to utilize his jab and was not able to deliver on his prediction of a knockout inside of six rounds.
The boxing skills are too good,” DeGale said. “If I’m being honest, he’s a very strong fighter, but skills pay the bills. I watched this guy years ago and he didn’t have the engine like that. He’s gotten better and stronger in the last year and a half.
I’m a bit disappointedI should be taking out people like Porky Medina, no disrespect to him.
I’m always learning in the gym. My inside work, my defense, my concentration. I’m going to go back to the gym, I’m going to work and I’ll be ready in September.
I want Badou Jack. I want a fresh name on my record.
Medina, auf der anderen Seite, nearly doubled DeGale, Wurf 1,140 Gesamt Schläge, verglichen mit 612 in the best performance of his career, but not enough to dethrone the champion. The Mexican challenger pounded the body and was at his best with DeGale against the ropes, striking the British champion with a killer left hook to the body.
He said he was going to stop me. He was running all around and he didn’t stop me like he said he would,” said Medina, who’s seven losses have come against fighters with a combined record of 131-2-2. “He’s the only one who thinks he won. The fans think I won. I definitely want the rematch.
Samstag event was promoted by Mayweather Promotions and Interbox in association with Matchroom Boxing.
Brian Custer war Gastgeber der SHOWTIME-Sendung, mit Mauro Ranallo Aufruf der Aktion, Hall of Fame-Analyst Al Bernstein und ehemaliger zweifacher Weltmeister Paulie Malignaggi kommentieren und Jim Gray Berichterstattung.

Ortiz found success early dropping Berto with a straight left, sending the Winter Haven, Florida-native to the canvas. Berto turned the tables in brutal fashion in the fourth, drilling Ortiz with a right uppercut which sent the southpaw from Ventura, Calif. sprawling to the mat. Beim Aufstehen, Ortiz was met with a barrage of punches which sent him down again as referee Jack Reiss waived the fight off at the 1:14 Markierung der Rund.
Said a thrilled Berto, “I wasn’t hurt by the first knockdown. I was more mad at myself for getting caught. Once he went down it was over, I knew he was hurt and I went right after him. He couldn’t take my power.

I feel terrific, it’s a great comeback victory. I would take on Danny Garcia sure, just tell me when and I’ll be ready.

From a disappointed Ortiz, “I didn’t really lose control. I dropped my hand and he caught me. He is a hard puncher just like myself.
This was a history book type of fight. He went down. I went down. Righty vs. lefty. This is boxing.
I knew as soon as the head butt happened that it was not good because the blood started pouring. That’s not a big deal. Es passiert im Boxen.
I never disliked Berto. It is part of the game. He acted like he didn’t like me, but I always tried to shake his hand. I don’t hate anyone.
In der TV-Ko-Funktion, Thomas “Platzhirsch” Williams Jr., 20-1 (14 KOs), continued his reign of terror in the light heavyweight division with a spectacular second round (2:59) knockout of Edwin “La Bomba” Rodriguez (28-2 19 KOs).
With both contenders throwing and landing bombs from the opening bell, Williams and Rodriguez were each rocked in the first stanza. Towards the end of the second round with the action reaching a boil, Williams unloaded with a massive left hand that sent Rodriguez sprawling to the canvas resulting in an immediate stoppage.
Said an elated Williams, “I told you what was going to happen, that he was going be open for everything and he was. I countered him and hurt him with every punch. I could see his punches like it was slow motion.

I want the title, absolutely I want to fight Adonis Stevenson next, he’s the champ and I want his belt.

From a dejected Rodriguez, “I thought I could have continued. I didn’t know what the referee saw, but I could have kept going.

I didn’t fight the fight I was supposed to. I was supposed to go in there and box, and I didn’t do it. I should have taken my time.

He throws like crazy and I wasn’t fighting defensively. I should have stuck to my game plan and that’s my fault.

In the televised opening, unbeaten featherweight contender Jorge Lara, (28-0-2 20 KOs), savagely stopped former world champion Fernando “Cochulito” Montiel, (54-6-2, 39 KOs) in der ersten Runde. Montiel was drilled to the canvas four times before the action was halted at the 1:37 Marke.
Sagte Lara, “It went totally according to plan. We trained for every round, but we knew that it wouldn’t go every round. After the first knockdown, I knew it wouldn’t go past the first round.
I want the winner of either Mares v. Cuellar or Frampton v. Santa Cruz.
I am honored to beat a great champion like Montiel.
From a shocked Montiel on the quick start by Lara, “It’s what I expected. He didn’t do anything that surprised me. He just caught me with a shot. But he gave me a couple shots behind the head that weren’t good.

When ask if he was fouled, “Absolut. Especially when I was down and he hit me in the back of the head. The referee should have called that (a foul).”

In televised heavyweight action, Gerald “Die Black Rooster” Washington verbessert 17-0-1 (11KO) with an eight round unanimous decision over former world title challenger “Schnell” Eddie Chambers, 42-5 (23KO). Scores waren 80-72 zweimal und 79-73.

In a bout that started off with a lot of back and forth action, Caparello struck first with a left in the second round that sent Dirrell to the canvas.
The knockdown I got in the second round felt good,” Said Caparello. “I knew I had him hurt, but I wasn’t able to capitalize on it.
Caparello again got Dirrell against the ropes and seemingly into a bit of trouble with a similar left in round three, but eventually Dirrell settled in and managed to gain control of the fight.
Dirrell said, “My focus, determination and my drive got me the win heute Abend. I know I’ve got more work to do, but I never stopped grinding in there heute Abend.”
Caparello continued to go to work and battle, but it was clear who the ring general was from the close of the third round and until the final bell rang.
Dirrell exclaimed, “I wanted to send the boxing world and this whole division a message. I’m coming for anyone with a belt. I’ll take on anyone who’s a champion. I know I’ll be a world champion. I have to be a champion. I don’t slow down for anyone. I’m going to keep pushing to get where I’m going.
On his struggles in the later rounds, Caparello said, “I continued to look for the same left hand all night, it just didn’t come again. Andre has a lot of tricks, he is both good and fast. I am not happy with my performance.
Dirrell concluded, “Heute Abend my brother and I were both able to display our talents in front of a national audience on Spike. Anthony is strong as an ox and got the win quickly heute Abend. I got the win on determination and heart. I had to use my toughness in this fight, and I pushed myself as hard as I could to get the win.
In the second televised bout of the evening, Ex-Weltmeister Anthony “Der Hund” Dirrell (29-1-1, 23 KOs) met former world title challenger Caleb “Golden” Truax (26-3-2, 16 KOs) in a 10-round super middleweight affair.
The former 168-pound titleholder Dirrell got off to a quick start, scoring two knockdowns in the first round, causing referee Harvey Dock to stop the fight at just 1:49 in der ersten Runde.
Dirrell said of the dominating performance, “What helped me heute Abend was landing my shots early. I was right on top of him with combinations and controlling my jab and that set the tone. Ich zeigte heute Abend that I work hard in the gym, and it paid off. If I work like I did this time leading up to the fight, then I know nobody can beat me.
A stunned Truax said, “Everything was great leading up to the fight. I don’t know what happened heute Abend. He just caught me early. I think it was an overhand right.
Reflecting on what the victory means for his struggling hometown of Flint, MY, Dirrell said, “My work heute Abend inside the ring made a big statement for what my brother and I are doing outside of the ring. A lot of people were watching heute Abend, and now they know a little bit more about what’s going on with the Flint Water Crisis back home.
The opening televised bout featured undefeated knockout artist Jonathan Guzman (21-0, 21 KOs) continuing his hot streak in a 12-round super bantamweight title eliminator against Mexico’s Daniel Rosas (20-3, 12 KOs).
Guzman, an unbeaten fighter out of the Dominican Republic and now training in Massachusetts, stabilized early and easily controlled the action in the second half of the fight.
Guzman said, “I used a lot of concentration early and let him make errors so I could see what he was planning to do. Once I saw the mistakes he was making I let my hands go.
Rosas was stunned in the third round, but Guzman was unable to close on the wobbled fighter. In der fünften Runde, Guzman landed a left that knocked Rosas back and followed it with another, dropping Rosas just before the bell.
I wanted to let him throw some punches early. It helped me gain confidence and learn his tendencies,” said Guzman. “I saw him dropping that right hand, and I knew it would open up the opportunity for me to land my left.
Rounds six and seven saw Rosas take a pummeling, but miraculously stay on his feet. At the end of the eighth frame, Guzman dropped Rosas for a second time, and again Rosas was saved by the bell.
Jedoch, referee Benjy Esteves had seen enough and stopped the fight following the close of round eight.
When asked about the stoppage, Rosas said, “The ref stopped the fight. I thought the fight should have continued, but he decided to stop it.Rosas continued, “(Guzman) knocked me down, but I kept on fighting. Ich war nie verletzt. Guzman is a strong fighter, but I felt I could have continued and come back in the rest of the rounds.

WBA-Interims-Weltmeister im Cruisergewicht & Pflichtherausforderer Beibut Shumenov protestiert gegen Dorticos-Kalenga WBA “regelmäßig” Weltmeistertitelkampf im Cruisergewicht

LAS VEGAS (April 29, 2016) – World Boxing Association (WBA) Zwischenweltmeister im Cruisergewicht Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs), der einzige gebürtige Kasachstan, der Weltmeistertitel in zwei verschiedenen Gewichtsklassen hält, bestreitet die Sanktionierung der WBA durch die WBA “regelmäßig” Weltmeisterschaftskampf im Cruisergewicht, Mai 20 in Paris, zwischen zwei rangniedrigeren WBA-Kämpfern, Unterlassen Sie. 2 yunier Dorticós und Nr. 5 Youri Kalenga (kürzlich aktualisiert auf Nr. 3).
Im Juli letzten Jahres, Schumenow besiegt B.J. Blumen durch eine einstimmige Entscheidung über 12 Runden, der obligatorische Herausforderer für die WBA zu werden “regelmäßig” Champion im Cruisergewicht Denis Lebedev, zu dem später erhoben wurde “Super” Champion.
Lebedev hat keine Pflichtverteidigung bekämpft innerhalb eines Jahres, ironisch, als er eine 12-Runden-Entscheidung über Kalenga gewann, der sich seinen WM-Titelschuss verdient hatte, wie Schumenow, indem er WBA-Interimsweltmeister wurde. Die WBA gewährte Lebedev wegen des Einigungskampfes des Russen eine Verlängerung seiner fälligen Pflichtverteidigung Mai 21 in Moskau gegen die International Boxing Federation (IBF) Titelverteidiger Victor Emelio Ramírez.
“Ich bin sehr enttäuscht, dass die WBA Dorticos-Kalenga für seinen „Stammspieler“ sanktioniert’ Titel im Cruiser, wenn ich die Nr. 1 rangierter und aktueller WBA-Interims-Champion,” Sagte Shumenov. “Ich habe die WBA wiederholt per E-Mail informiert, SMS und mündlich, dass ich bereit war, mich im Januar zu wehren. Ich zog es vor, gegen Lebedev zu kämpfen, aber ich war bereit, gegen Dorticos oder jeden anderen an der Spitze zu kämpfen 15. Für die letzten Monate, Ich habe über eine meiner Meinung nach sehr schlechte Entscheidung nachgedacht, zwei rangniedrigere Kämpfer zu lassen, das Nein. 2 und Nr. 3 Jungs, Kampf für die WBA ‘regulär’ Titel. Ich bin schockiert und verwirrt und verstehe die Begründung der WBA nicht, dass einer dieser Kämpfer die WBA für „regulär“ erklärt hat’ Champion, ohne vorher Lebedev oder mich zu besiegen, der Interims-Champion und Nr. 1 Rang Anwärter.
“Ich habe die Entscheidung aber angefochten, bis jetzt, Die WBA hat auf meine Appelle wenig reagiert, außer zu verzögern und zu warten, bevor sie schließlich entschied, dass ich in Monaten gegen den Lebedev-Ramirez-Sieger kämpfen werde, noch, Ich habe meinen Appell ignoriert, den regulären Titelstatus von Dorticos-Kalenga zu beenden und trotzdem einen Kampf zwischen ihnen zu genehmigen, es ist Nein. 2 und Nr. 3 bewertete Kämpfer, für die WBA „regulär’ Titel. Das ist den Fans gegenüber unfair, die es verdienen, die Besten gegen die Besten kämpfen zu sehen, Vor allem, wenn es um eine Weltmeisterschaft geht! Wir haben jetzt diese seltsame Situation, in der es im Mai drei separate WBA-Kämpfe im Cruisergewicht geben wird, alles für eine andere Version des WBA-Weltmeistertitels. Ich glaube einfach nicht, dass irgendjemand den WBA-Titel „regulär“ bekommen sollte’ Titel, ohne zuerst einen Champion oder zumindest den bestplatzierten Kämpfer der Division zu besiegen. Die WBA wusste, dass ich bereit war und bin, zu kämpfen. Seine Entscheidung macht keinen Sinn und, meiner Meinung nach, mindert Prestige und Bedeutung des Titels. Ich habe Respekt vor Dorticos und Kalenga, aber ich denke, die Legitimität jedes Weltmeistertitels, der aus einem Kampf zwischen der Nr. 2 und Nr. 3 rangierte Anwärter, wenn die Nr 1 Pflichtkandidat, der bereits den WBA-Interims-Champion hält, ist bereit und verfügbar, gelinde gesagt, ist höchst fragwürdig.
“Die WBA sagte mir und gab den Medien bekannt, dass sie daran arbeite, nur einen Weltmeister in jeder Division zu haben. Während ich die letzten vier Monate draußen gesessen und auf den Kampf gewartet habe, Die WBA hat beschlossen, sechs verschiedene Jungs für den Kampf zuzulassen drei WBA-Weltmeistertitel im Cruisergewicht, praktisch am selben Tag, anstatt nur einen WBA-Weltmeister im Cruisergewicht zu krönen. Ich freue mich darauf, in den Ring und zu meinem Manager zurückzukehren, Al Haymon, hat mir geraten, dass ich im Mai kämpfen werde und wir nächste Woche bekannt geben werden. Ich möchte allen für ihre Unterstützung danken und ich entschuldige mich bei meiner Familie, Freunde, Fans und mein Land, Kasachstan, für dieses Chaos, das die WBA verursacht hat und das meine professionelle Boxkarriere beschädigt und verzögert hat. Ich werde vorwärts gehen und weiter im Ring kämpfen, meine Anwälte und meinen Manager diese unfaire Situation außerhalb des Rings bekämpfen zu lassen.”
