Alexander “Der große” Flores driven to conquer Luis “King Kong” Ortiz

Oktober 29, 2020 FNU47 Hinterlasse einen Kommentar

LAS VEGAS (Oktober 27, 2020) – California heavyweight **Alexander “Der große” Blumen** (18-2-1, 16 KOs), whose only pro losses have been to world champions, will have the opportunity of his boxing career on November 7^th, when he takes on 2-time world title challenger Luis “King Kong” Ortiz (26 KOs).

***King Kong vs. Alexander The Great*** will air live on FOX television, ab 8:00 p.m. UND / 5:30 p.m. PT, in the 10-round main event on the Premier Boxing Champions card from Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles.

“Ortiz is a 2-time world title challenger who has a lot of experience,” Flores sagte. “Ich bin jung, hungrig, driven and determined to win. Beating Ortiz is a life-changing opportunity that I won’t be taking for granted.”

“Ortiz is a great fighter,” Blumen’ Promoter **Keith Veltre** (RJJ Boxing CEO/co-founder) zusätzlich, “but I think he may regret fighting a hungry lion like Flores. Fighting the elite of the heavyweight division has never been a problem for Alexander, whose only two losses have been to world champions. He gained invaluable experience in those fights that he’ll take into the ring against Oritz. We’d like to thank Team Ortiz, PBC and FOX for this tremendous opportunity.”

The 30-year-old Flores, fighting out of Roland Heights (SOWIE), lost in 2014 to world champions **Charles Martin** und **Joseph Parker** four years later Flores captured the World Boxing Council (WBC) Youth World heavyweight title in 2012 with a fifth-round stoppage of **Joey Montoya**.

Cuba-born Ortiz, der in Miami lebt, has lost only twice, both times to world champion **Deontay Wilder**. Ortiz, a 41-year-old southpaw, has defeated a litany of world-class heavyweights during his 10 ½ year pro career, including Christian Hammer, Travis Kaufman, Malik Scott, Tony Thompson, Bryan Jennings, Monte Barrett, Lateef Kayode and Epifanio Mendoza. Als Amateur, Ortiz had a reported 349-19 Rekord, and he captured a gold medal at the 2006 Cuban National Championships.

Boxing a family affair for Idaho amateur boxer Kendra Samargis

Oktober 29, 2020 FNU47 Hinterlasse einen Kommentar

COLORADO SPRINGS, Runde. (Oktober 26, 2020) – Idaho middleweight boxer Kendra (Reeves) Samargis‘ decision four years ago to lose weight has led her onto a path to compete in the 2020 USA Boxing National Championships, Dezember 5-12, im Shreveport Convention Center in Shreveport, Louisiana.

Boxen für den 26-jährigen Samargis, der in Twin Falls lebt, ist eine echte Familienangelegenheit. Sie wurde von ihrem Ehemann ausgebildet, Jason, und ihre beiden Söhne, Skyler Bellus (11) und Riley Marovich (8), sind in den USA Boxen. Skyler, tatsächlich, hat an mehreren Turnieren teilgenommen, an denen auch seine Mutter teilgenommen hat.

“Ich fing an zu boxen, nur als eine Form des Gewichtsverlusts,” Erklärte Kendra. “Mein Mann war seit vielen Jahren Boxtrainer und hatte immer noch seine gesamte Ausrüstung. Wir stellten es in unserer Garage auf und begannen mit dem Training. Zuerst, Anfangen war das Schlimmste, was ich jemals getan hatte. Die Menge an Ausdauer, Ausdauer, und Stärke, die ich haben musste, war unwirklich. Mit der Zeit verlor ich langsam enormes Gewicht, 73-Pfund um genau zu sein, und ich habe den Sport geliebt.

“I’m always asked what it’s like to be trained by my husband. I always say I have a secret weapon, someone who is in my corner who wants me to succeed just as much as I do and supports me throughout. Auch, in times we’re at tournaments, I am never alone the night before a big fight and if I need a pep talk, he is right there. Jetzt, my sons competing with me, bien sur, that’s a different story. Being on the outside of the ring while my boys are competing is by far harder than any fight I have ever had. My mom-side definitely kicks in. Am Ende des Tages, obwohl, I know how well trained they are, and I have to trust that. I don’t work their corners because that’s too close. I would throw in the towel every time. I have to be in the stands.”

Kendra und ihre beiden Söhne werden dieses Jahr in Shreveport antreten, obwohl sie während der COVID-19-Pandemie trainieren mussten, um sich auf das erste nationale Turnier des Jahres in den USA vorzubereiten.

“Das Training während der Pandemie war für mich ein Segen,” Sagte Kendra. “Wir besitzen jetzt ein Fitnessstudio in der Stadt. So, Während der Zeit mussten wir unsere Türen schließen, Mein Ehemann, Kinder und ich konnten mit unserem Trainingsprogramm Schritt halten. Ich habe in dieser Zeit so viel gelernt. Wir konnten tatsächlich die Dinge verlangsamen und an so vielen Dingen arbeiten, die übersehen werden. Wir haben auch großes Glück, in einer kleinen Stadt zu leben, Wir mussten unser Fitnessstudio nur zwei Monate lang geschlossen halten und sind seitdem in Betrieb. Ich konnte mir nur vorstellen, wie schwer es in diesen Zeiten für so viele Menschen sein muss. We were very blessed to have a gym to get us through.”

Derzeit auf Platz Nr. 10 bei 152 pounds and No. 5 bei 165, Kendra’s highlights thus far are winning gold medals at the 2019 Eastern Elite Qualifier und 2018 National Golden Gloves Turnier.

An aggressive boxer who throws punches in bunches, Samargis believes she’s made dramatic improvement in the past years. She admittedly changed many different parts of her game, focusing more on movement, foot and head placements.

Schließlich, she wants to capture top honors at multiple national tournaments, starting with this year’s Nationals Championship, and eventually turn pro to shoot for a world title. Zur Zeit, obwohl, she’s all in for the Nationals.

“I am my biggest competition for this year’s National Championships,” she concluded. “Every day I want to be the best version of myself and every day I wake up to the haunting possibility I could fall back into the person that I used to be. I have to go to war everyday with myself to keep this person at bay. All of the hours of training, nutrition and mental preparation helps me accomplish this. Every day I can continue to be the best version of myself, focusing only on getting better, then who I compete against won’t matter.

“I am beyond ready and excited for the National Championships this year. With the world coming to a halt this will be my first tournament of the year. I am ready to get back in the ring. Medaling will give me another national title under my belt and sharpen my resume for when I turn pro.”

SERGEY LIPINETS: “WE NEVER MISSED A BEAT IN PREPARATION, EVEN WITH OPPONENT CHANGE”

Oktober 21, 2020 FNU47 Hinterlasse einen Kommentar

**Former World Champion Lipinets Battles Unbeaten**
**Custio Clayton for Interim IBF Welterweight Title**
**Live auf Showtime^® Samstag, Oktober 24 Headlining a**
**Premier Boxing Champions Event**

**NEW YORK** (Oktober 20, 2020) – Even with a change in date and then opponent, Ex-Weltmeister **Sergey Lipinets** remains supremely confident in his training camp and overall preparations as he prepares to take on unbeaten **Custio Clayton** for the Interim IBF Welterweight Title live on SHOWTIME this Saturday, Oktober 24 (9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT) headlining a Premier Boxing Champions event.

“We never missed a beat in preparation, even with the opponent change,Sagte Lipinets. “My fight with Kudratillo Abdukakhorov was on and off for so long that I already had an idea that he was going to be forced to back out, so I wasn’t shocked. ist mir egal, obwohl. Whoever I have to fight I’m ready to fight, so I didn’t consider backing out of fighting for even one second.”

Lipinets credits his trainer, the renowned Joe Goossen, for helping his fighter mentally through the changes, in addition to the physical training they have undertook heading into the fight.

“Having Joe Goossen is like having a psychiatrist as well as a trainer,Sagte Lipinets. “He’s been extremely helpful about how to approach all of this. Joe helped me stay calm and understand that something good can always come from a bad or difficult situation, und deshalb, Ich habe nie den Fokus verloren. “

Clayton ist ein kanadischer Olympiasieger mit einem makellosen Pro-Lebenslauf in diesem Showdown. Während Lipinets feststellt, dass es Unterschiede in den Kampfstilen zwischen Abdukakhorov und Clayton gibt, nichts davon ändert seine Absicht im Oktober 24.

„Ich weiß, dass Clayton einen großartigen Amateur-Hintergrund hat,Sagte Lipinets. "Ich habe seinen Stil überprüft, und der Hauptunterschied ist, dass Abdukakhorov aktiver und Clayton genauer ist. Abdukakhorov ist auch etwas aggressiver und Clayton ist geduldiger.

"Ich denke nicht, dass einer härter oder einfacher ist als der andere. Ich denke, dass jeder, der auf diesem Level kämpft, ein schwieriger Gegner ist. Abdukakhorov bewegt sich mehr und kann mit den verschiedenen Stilen, die er verwendet, unangenehmer sein. Beide sind sehr harte Jungs, but I’m ready for Clayton and focused only on him at this point.”

Despite his sole focus on Clayton, Lipinets knows that this fight brings a big opportunity to make a loud proclamation to the rest of the stacked welterweight division with a big performance to capture the interim IBF title.

“I’m prepared to make one statement – I belong here,Sagte Lipinets. “I want to fight the best. I want to make my imprint on this sport and build my legacy. I’ve had to do it the hard way, but I’m not complaining. I fought for my first championship in just my 13^th Profi-Kampf. I believe that I belong right there at the top of this sport. People need to start mentioning my name with the top guys and after this fight they’ll have to. You can’t look past me anymore.”

JUAN HERALDEZ TRAINING CAMP NOTES

Oktober 17, 2020 FNU47 Hinterlasse einen Kommentar

***"Im Oktober 31 everyone will see what I’m capable of," – Heraldez***

Unbeaten Contender Juan Heraldez Faces Former World Champion Regis Prograis in SHOWTIME PPV^® ActionSaturday, Oktober 31 Live From the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas in an Event Presented by Premier Boxing Champions

**NEW YORK – Oktober 16, 2020 –** Unbeaten super lightweight contender **Juan Heraldez** is deep into training camp and shared insights into his preparations as he nears a showdown against former champion **Regis "Rougarou" Prograis** am Samstag, Oktober 31 live on SHOWTIME PPV in a Premier Boxing Champions event headlined by Gervonta Davis vs. Leo Santa Cruz live from Alamodome in San Antonio.

“It’s been a long eight-week camp preparing for Prograis,” said Heraldez. “We’re fighting a different style of fighter, which is a good thing because he’s the type of fighter who comes to fight. A style like this makes it easier for me to train and prepare.

“Prograis has power, but you have to land it and that’s where my defense comes into play. My defense has always been a factor and it’s something we always tweak and find ways for me to be sharper. On paper his credentials are up there, but in the ring all of that goes out the door. Wenn die Glocke läutet, I’m not thinking about him being a former world champion. I fight and get the job done.”

Heraldez has adapted to the changes produced by training during the pandemic, and has been able to keep focused throughout camp. He credits the infrastructure at the Mayweather Boxing Club, where he trains in Las Vegas, for helping keep things running smoothly as he prepares to face his toughest opponent to date.

“The pandemic has had a slight effect on camp like it has with everything else,” said Heraldez. “There are so many protocols and safety measures, so you can’t just rotate sparring partners as easily as you could before. Adjusting to wearing a mask in the gym and getting tested constantly are things you learn to get used to. The Mayweather Boxing Club has done a great job of keeping the gym clean and safe for all of us. A lot of my stablemates are here in Las Vegas preparing for big fights, so it’s a great feeling knowing that we can come to a gym where safety is the top priority.”

The unbeaten Heraldez will return to the ring after fighting former world champion Argenis Mendez to a draw in May 2019 auf Showtime. Heraldez had put together an impressive string of victories dating back to a 2017 triumph over then-unbeaten Jose Miguel Borrego, and included a knockout win over Eddie Ramirez in February 2019 leading into the Mendez fight. Heraldez has continued to fine-tune his arsenal heading into the Prograis fight.

“My team and I have been working on various things such as my jab, but most importantly where I am in the ring at all times,” said Heraldez. “My ring awareness has elevated this camp. My coach and I keep things old school, we don’t have a strength and conditioning coach, we work on the basics and get better at them each camp. Boxing is simple. Stick and move and don’t get hit. The training I get from Coach Otis Pimpleton covers so many things such as cardio, Technik, ring IQ, usw., so my job is just to listen to my team and trust them when I’m in camp and in the ring on fight night.”

While Heraldez is looking to improve on the draw in his last fight, Prograis will be seeking to bounce back from his first career defeat, a memorable 140-pound unification clash with Josh Taylor. With both fighters hungry for a win on October 31, Heraldez expects an exciting night for fans.

“On fight night, both of our styles are going to make for great action,” said Heraldez. “We both bring a lot to the ring. We’re both fighting to be the best, but on October 31, everyone will see what I’m capable of.”

***ÜBER DAVIS VS. SANTA CRUZ***
Davis vs. Santa Cruz wird dreimaliger Weltmeister **Gervonta "Panzer" Davis** und Vier-Divisionen-Weltmeister **Leo "Das Erdbeben" Santa Cruz** Kampf um die WBA Super Featherweight und WBA Lightweight Championships als Headliner eines SHOWTIME PPV Samstags, Oktober 31 (9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT) in einer Veranstaltung von Premier Boxing Champions aus dem Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.
