Del Valle to meet Crespo April 9!
Bayamon, PR (Aibreán 1, 2016) – Super bantamweight contender Luis “Orlandito” Del Valle returns to the ring on Dé Sathairn, Aibreán 9 to face New England titlist Josh Crespo in an eight round bout at Rockingham Park in Salem, NH.
Ticéid ó $35 are on sale by calling 860-982-2532 nó 603-898-2311.
A blood and guts warrior who gives fans their monies worth every time he enters the squared circle, Del Valle has an outstanding 20-2 taifead le 15 Bhuaigh ag knockout. I mí na Samhna 2015, the Bayamon native stopped 50-plus fight veteran Jose Juan Beltran after two rounds in Comerio, Pórtó Ríce. Currently signed to an exclusive promotional contract with Jay-Z’s Roc Nation Sports, Del Valle has his sights set on another big fight but first must conquer the task at hand.
Born and raised in New Haven, CT, Crespo is riding a wave of confidence having defeated Jorge Abiague (9-1) for the New England super bantamweight championship last November. Crespo’s professional ledger is a deceptive 6-2-3 le 2 KO’s but he’s unbeaten in his last five, facing two undefeated fighters in the process.
If victorious, Del Valle is expected to appear in a televised bout in the immediate future. While some potentially view this fight as a given for Del Valle prior to bigger and better things, the 29-year-old knows that records don’t tell the whole story and Crespo’s hunger can’t be overlooked.
“I’ve got big plans but that all goes out the window if I don’t do what I have to against Crespo,” Del Valle said from his training camp in Puerto Rico. “Anybody who really knows boxing understands that a record doesn’t determine how good a fighter is. I’ve seen Crespo before. He’s tough and willing to take on anybody which is evident by the fact that he’s facing me rather than a lesser opponent. I’m training like I’m the underdog since this fight is close to his hometown and I’ve got a lot on the line.”

TOMASZ “Goral” ADAMEK: “Bhí campa iontach agam, comhpháirtithe sparring iontach agus foireann iontach timpeall orm. Toisc (Chicí – Oiliúnóir fisiciúil Adamek), Oiliúnóir do roger bloodworth – rinne na guys seo jab iontach le dhá mhí anuas. Mar a dúirt Eric, ‘Nílimid ag caint ar cad a dhéanfaimid, táimid réidh é a dhéanamh i ndáiríre.’ Is maith le Molina é a mheascadh, Is maith le punches caith, agus nach bhfuil eagla. Caithfidh gur troid iontach é seo díreach mar gheall air sin. Níl aon rud tar éis troid Molina ar mo shon. Seo an troid a shocróidh mo thodhchaí. Ciallaíonn bua go bhfuil mé ar an mbóthar le haghaidh troideanna móra, ciallaíonn chailliúint ní féidir liom é a dhéanamh a thuilleadh. Is eol dom go bhfuil mé i bhfad níos ullmhaithe don troid seo ná mar a bhí mé do na babhtaí Glazkov agus Szpilka araon. Ach, ar ndóigh, fíoróidh an méid a tharlaíonn i bhfáinne ár bhfocail.”
ERIC “Boy drummer” MOLINA: “Don chéad uair i mo ghairm bheatha fuair mé 70 laethanta a ullmhú; gan fasach sa rannán meáchain trom. Cad atá ar eolas agam faoi Adamek? Is trodaí é agus bíonn daoine sa Pholainn ag súil le rudaí iontacha uaidh mar is finscéal dornálaíochta Polannach é. I dom, beidh deis aige ceann de na meáchain throma is fearr sa rannán a throid agus beidh a fhios againn go léir cá seasaimid. Tá mé an-dóchasach, ní hamháin go mbuafaidh mé an cogadh seo ar an Satharn, ach freisin gurb é an chéad mheáchain throm-Mheicsiceo-Mheiriceánach amach anseo é. Gheobhaidh daoine luach a gcuid airgid ar an Satharn. Is féidir liom é sin a ráthú. Tá an-rátáil ag Adamek ag WBC agus IBF, an dá eagraíocht is gníomhaí sa dornálaíocht. Beidh buaiteoir an tSathairn i suíochán an tiománaí le haghaidh troideanna iontacha amach anseo.”
MICHAEL CIESLAK: “Shíl mé freisin go bhfuil tú níos mó. Agus tá súil agam freisin go bhfuil gach rud atá á rá agat faoi cé chomh maith agus a bhí do champa traenála an fhírinne. Is féidir liom gealltanas a thabhairt duit go mbeidh mé réidh le haghaidh gach rud. Tá mé sa chruth is fearr de mo shaol agus cruthóidh mé é sin ar an Satharn. Palacios, bí réidh le troid! Ní féidir liom fanacht níos mó le seó mór a chur ar siúl.”
FRANCISCO “An Draoi” PALACIOS: “Teastaíonn uaidh caitheamh liom mar chloch cora ach is í an fhadhb atá leis sin ná nach bhfuil mé ina chloch cora d’éinne. Is carraig mé! Ba mhaith leat a buille dom, caithfidh tú mé a mharú. Agus dála an scéil, Shíl mé go bhfuil Cieślak níos mó. Ní féidir leat a mheas cad is féidir liom a dhéanamh nó nach féidir liom a dhéanamh díreach toisc go bhfuil Kudryashov bainte amach agam sa troid dheireanach. Ciallaíonn sé rud ar bith. Ar an gcéad dul, a tharlaíonn sé sa dornálaíocht agus an níos tábhachtaí fós, níl baint ar bith aige lena bhfuil mé réidh le déanamh anois le m’fhoireann nua agus “Chill” Wilson ar mo thaobh. Just a faire: Tá Am Draoi ag teacht arís.”

‘STITCH’ DURAN SIGNS CONTRACT WITH REEBOK
April Fools..Stich is not getting a Reebok shoe… He’s the New Undisputed Bellator Hand-Wrapping Champion.
Thuas: Stitch wraps the hands of “King Mo” Lawal at “Bellator MMA: Dynamite 1 " (Creidmheasa: Bellator/Esther Lin)
SANTA MONICA (Márta 31, 2016) – When watching any combat sports event, it’s odd not to see Jacob “Stitch” Duran as the professional cutman on duty. Sa lá atá inniu, Bellator MMA is pleased to secure his services as its lead cutman for the foreseeable future, after “Stitch” signed a multi-year contract with the Scott Coker-led promotion.
Starting with "Bellator 153: Koreshkov vs. Henderson " ar Aibreán 22 at the Mohegan Sun Arena in CT, the most famous cutman in the world will do everything in his power to get Bellator fighters prepped for entering the cage and helping them continue on once the bell rings, giving them “one more round.”
Stitch joins a great team of cutmen including Matt Marsden, Dean Lassiter agus Paul Quiredos.
“Working with my old friend, Scott Coker and Bellator is a true honor,” said Duran. “I can’t wait to get started working for a great organization that respects their employees and truly makes their fighters the top priority!"
While working for Bellator, “Stitch” will not be prevented from seeking sponsors to wear and will also continue to work boxing events, with high profile clients the likes of Andre Ward, Vitali Klitschko and Wladimir Klitschko.
ALL ROADS LEAD TO MONUMENTAL FIGHT CARD IN LEWISTON
Lewiston, Maine (Márta 31, 2016) - Troideanna Sasana Nua (NEF), Meiriceá uimhir a haon a chur chun cinn gcomhrac réigiúnach, Beidh Tionólfar ócáid seo chugainn, “NEF 22: GACH ROADS PRÍOMH ANSEO” ar Dé Sathairn, Aibreán 23, 2016 ag an Colisée Androscoggin Banc i Lewiston, Maine. The fight card will feature a mix of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Níos luaithe inniu, NEF announced the full fight card for the event. The fight card is scheduled to feature three professional boxing matches, six professional MMA bouts, and twelve exciting amateur MMA contests.
On the professional boxing side of the card, Northeast Junior Welterweight Champion, and the pride of West Forks, Maine, Brandon “An Cannon” Berry(11-1, 7 Kos) returns to the ring for a six-rounder with Detroit, Michigan’s James Lester (10-9, 4 Kos). Berry, one of the most popular boxers to ever come out of Maine, will look for his fourth consecutive victory since returning from a shoulder injury last year.
That will prove easier said than done with Lester standing in the opposite corner. Lester is a product of the world-famous Kronk Gym in Detroit where world champions like Thomas “Hitman” Hearns (61-5-1, 48 Kos), Oscar De La Hoya (39-6, 30 Kos), Lennox Lewis (41-2-1, 32 Kos) and Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 Kos) have trained under the late Emmanuel Steward. Lester was ranked number-two nationally as an amateur. He presents a dangerous threat to Berry, one that could very well play the role of “spoiler” go “An Cannon” and his legion of fans.
After a bloody war of a professional boxing debut at “NEF 21” an mhí seo caite, NEF MMA regular Crowsneck Boutin (0-0-1) will once again step into the boxing ring, this time facing Brandon Montella (3-0, 2 Kos). Montella, now a resident of Massachusetts, grew up in Maine and served in the United States Marine Corps.
Headlining the professional MMA portion of the fight card will be Jesse “An Lochlannach” Erickson (6-4) agus Devin Powell (5-1) in a lightweight contest. Both fighters are currently on a three-fight win streak.
“I try to focus on what is right in front of me,” said Erickson during a recent interview on The MMA Report Podcast. “I never looked past my opponents but I like to think what the reward is going to be when I beat this guy.”
Neither athlete can afford to overlook the other, but a win for either could very well mean a call from one of the national promotions. Erickson has been there before with Bellator. Powell is an all-around talent with some slick finishes to his credit.
“This is the type of MMA fight we absolutely love,” said NEF co-owner and promoter Nick DiSalvo. “You have two guys who match up so well. They’ve both been racking up the wins. They’ve faced some of the same opponents. They’re both solid on the mat and on their feet. I expect this to be yet another crazy, wild NEF MMA main event!”
“Crazy” agus “wild” do not even begin to describe the grudge that has developed between Josh “Hook On” Harvey (0-0) agus Matt “Ken Doll” Denning (2-1). The bitter rivals will meet at a fight weight of 150-pounds at “NEF 22” in an MMA bout. The bout will be Harvey’s professional debut after a stellar 5-1 amateur career that saw him capture the NEF MMA Amateur Lightweight Title, as well as the northeast regions number-one ranking. The well-publicized personal issues between Harvey and Denning will be settled in the cage on April 23rd.
The professional portion of the MMA card will also feature the pro debut of Harvey’s Young’s MMA teammate Aaron “Gan staonadh” Lacey (0-0) as he takes on veteran “Shatterproof 2.0” Derek Shorey (3-5) i bout featherweight. Lacey vacated the NEF MMA Amateur Featherweight Title in order to turn professional.
That title will not stay vacant very long as Caleb Hall (6-3) agus Erik Nelson (2-2) face off to determine a new champion at the top of the amateur MMA card. Hall is coming off a first-round submission win at “NEF XX” titim anuas, while Nelson recently picked up a unanimous decision victory at “NEF 21.”
The amateur MMA card will also feature a women’s fight between Angela Óga(0-1) agus “Hollywood” Hannah Sparrell (1-0). Young and Sparrell made their respective debuts last year at “NEF XIX.”

“I’m thrilled to be making my pro debut on Bealtaine 13 at the DC Armory,” said Rock. “My team and I have worked hard and it has all been building up to this moment. I’m looking forward to my rise to the top of the heavyweight division which begins on Bealtaine 13."
Hailing ó Washington, D.C., Dusty Hernandez-Harrison has been touted as the city’s “best boxing prospect since Sugar Ray Leonard” by the Washingtonian Magazine. He began fighting at the age of six at the boxing exhibition at the Ritz Nightclub in Northwest D.C. and became a sanctioned amateur at the age of 8. Ag an am a chéad bout pro ag aois 17, Hernandez-Harrison compiled an amateur record of 167-30, bhuaigh Craobh an Domhain roinnt Ringside, Craobhchomórtas Silver Lámhainní náisiúnta agus trí Craobhchomórtais díreach Lámhainní náisiúnta Golden ó 2007-09. Ar Meitheamh 11, 2011, as the youngest licensed professional fighter at the time, Hernandez-Harrison made his pro debut defeating Alphonso Alexander via a unanimous decision at the Desoto Civic Center in Southaven, Mississippi. Six months later in his third pro fight, Hernandez-Harrison made his hometown debut on the undercard of the HBO World Championship Boxing broadcast of Amir Khan vs. Lamont Peterson and dazzled with a first round technical knockout of Terrell Davis. On his way to being crowned WBC Youth Welterweight World Champion in November 2013, Hernandez-Harrison stopped former National Golden Gloves Champion Kelly Wright in the fourth round in February of that year and two weeks later defeated Aaron Anderson via a six-round unanimous decision. In April 2013 at Dover Downs Casino and Resort in Dover, Delaware, he won a unanimous decision against Puerto Rico’s Jonathan Garcia and on Bealtaine 18 in front of a raucous hometown crowd of 3,000 at the University of the District of Colombia, he knocked out Eddie Soto with a right hand in the fifth round. Hernandez-Harrison proceeded to earn the “2013 Knockout of the Year” for the Soto fight and the “2013 Fighter of the Year” from Go Fight Live (GFL.TV). Ar Samhain 2, 2013 ag Madison Square Garden, Hernandez-Harrison became the WBC Youth World Champion, winning a ten-round, unanimous decision over Josh “Pit Bull” Torres. Dhá mhí ina dhiaidh sin, in his first nationally televised fight on ESPN’s Dé hAoine Troideanna Oíche, Hernandez-Harrison outlasted Tim Witherspoon Jr. via an eighth round unanimous decision victory, after which actor and director Mark Wahlberg tweeted that Hernandez-Harrison is “the truth.” Featured again on ESPN’s Dé hAoine Night Fights on March 7, 2014, Hernandez-Harrison faced southpaw Mike Balasi and came back to drop Balasi to the canvas twice en route to a six-round unanimous decision victory. ar Eanáir 9, 2015, soon after signing a promotional agreement with Roc Nation Sports, Hernandez-Harrison headlined the promoter’s inaugural event at The Theater at Madison Square in a fight televised by Fox Sports 1. In a battle for the vacant WBC Continental Americas Welterweight Championship against New Yorker Tommy “The Razor” Rainone, Hernandez-Harrison scored a dominant ten-round unanimous decision victory. In his most recent fight on January 29, 2016, Hernandez-Harrison scored a decisive win over Angel Hernandez via a third round technical knockout at The Belvedere in Elk Grove, Illinois. Hernandez-Harrison recently entered into agreements with FILA and GEICO to be a brand ambassador for both companies. He is the only professional boxer to represent each prestigious brand.
Mike Dallas Jr. was born into a boxing family and tabbed by experts during his teen years as a future professional star. At age 29, he’s in the midst of a comeback that lands him in Washington, D.C. against local unbeaten favorite Dusty Hernandez-Harrison that may be the most important fight of his life. Mar amaitéarach, Dallas shared a ring with current world champions Terence Crawford (whom Dallas claims he beat three times) and Danny Garcia as well as three-time U.S. Olympian Rau’shee Warren. He won multiple national amateur titles and qualified for the 2004 agus 2008 Trialacha Oilimpeacha. Dallas turned professional on March 20, 2008 against Alejandro Valladares in San Jose, California and won by unanimous decision. He would go unbeaten in his next 17 troideanna. When he faced Josesito Lopez for the vacant NABF super lightweight title on January 28, 2011 in his national television debut on ESPN at Pechanga Resort and Casino in Temecula, California, he was shockingly stopped in the seventh round.Five months later, Dallas met fellow rising contender Mauricio Herrera. In an excellent fight, again at Pechanga Resort and Casino, Dallas lost by a razor thin majority decision. Despite the setback, Dallas’ performance showed boxing experts he was back to contender status. In his next two fights, Dallas dominated former Miguel Angel Gonzales on February 17, 2012 and knocked out Javier Castro on June 22, 2012 to capture the WBO Latino light welterweight title. Those wins brought Dallas to his biggest opportunity to date, an WBC super lightweight interim world title fight against Lucas Matthysse, ar Eanáir 26, 2013 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Just after negotiations for the fight were finalized, Dallas learned that his father, Mike Dallas Sr., who introduced his son to boxing at age six, passed away suddenly at just 45 bliain d'aois. Dallas Jr., áfach, did not pull out of the Matthysee fight. Ar oíche troid i, Dallas Jr. was all there physically, but mentally a fight of that magnitude was too much under the circumstances and Matthysee, probably the hardest puncher in boxing, imposed his will on Dallas, scoring a first round knockout. He then took the break he should have taken before the Matthysee fight, spending two years away from the ring. When Dallas felt the urge to fight again, he contacted his trainer Ben Bautista and the pair ventured to Tijuana, Mexico, where Dallas picked up two quick wins against Alejandro Alonso on November 20, 2015 and most recently on December 19 against Odillon Rivera. He now returns to fight in the spotlight again on Bealtaine 13 in a true crossroads fight against Hernandez-Harrison.
At the age of nineteen, Darmani Rock is already drawing comparisons to former heavyweight greats of the past. Rock has received high praise for his powerful jab and ambidexterity. Standing at 6’4”, he moves with an unparalleled lightness and speed for a fighter his size. Rock earned nation-wide accolades following a banner year in 2014 when he took home the USA Boxing Junior and Youth Open, Youth Continental and Youth World super heavyweight titles. During the 2014 Junior and Youth Open in Reno, Nevada, Rock shut out the 2013 National Youth Champion, John Luna, 3-0. This impressive performance was followed by another super heavyweight title at the Youth Continental Championships in March 2014 in Quito, Ecuador where he defeated Argentina’s Kervin Espinola 3-0. Rock then took home the gold medal at the prestigious World Youth Championships in Bulgaria in April 2014 by a 2-1 decision over Germany’s Peter Kadiru.
