Premieres Friday, Desember 4 ved 9 PM ET/PT

**NEW YORK – October 27, 2020** – Showtime Sports Documentary Films today announced it will air *MACHO: THE HECTOR CAMACHO STORY,* an unflinching look at the remarkable life, storied career and unsolved murder of one of boxing’s greatest showmen. Premiering Friday, Desember 4 ved 9 pm. ET / PT på SHOWTIME, the documentary debuts just two weeks after the eighth anniversary of Camacho’s fatal shooting in Bayamon, Puerto Rico.

For the first time on film, *MACHO: THE HECTOR CAMACHO STORY* offers a thorough examination of an unlikely sports hero. The film celebrates Camacho’s sublime boxing skills and the unbridled charisma that brought Spanish Harlem and Puerto Rican culture to the center of the sports world. Through rare and revealing interviews with his mother, Maria Matias, sisters, wife Amy and son Hector Jr., the documentary also delves into the legendary fighter’s troubled mind and spirit, his battle with addiction and the inner turmoil that ultimately lead to his demise – a mysterious double homicide on a roadside in November 2012.

“Macho Camacho’s charisma, boxing prowess and flamboyant style made him a Puerto Rican sports icon, og, for a time, the biggest star in boxing. When he stepped into the ring, everyone knew it was ‘Macho Time,’” said Stephen Espinoza, President, Programmering av sport og begivenheter, Showtime Networks Inc. “This film reveals the complex highs and lows of Hector’s life: the joy he brought so many, as well as the demons that he battled privately behind the scenes. Through it all, men, Camacho brought boxing a level of showmanship and flamboyance that was far ahead of his time.”

Born in Bayamon and raised in the projects of Spanish Harlem in the 1970s, Camacho ascended to the pinnacle of boxing. His dynamic speed, footwork and power combined with his unparalleled showmanship helped usher in a new era of modern boxing and made him a member of an exclusive club of fighters who transcended the sport. The film tells the story of Camacho’s rise from a troubled youth to a multi-division world champion. *MACHO: THE HECTOR CAMACHO STORY* revisits Camacho’s unforgettable performances against legends such as Roberto Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard and Julio Cesar Chavez, and pivotal career turning points in bouts with Ray “Boom Boom” Mancini and beloved New England fighter Vinny Pazienza. Through all the ups and downs and wins and losses, Camacho’s story of resilience is inspiring, skjønt, in the end, there was one opponent he could never beat – himself.

*MACHO: THE HECTOR CAMACHO STORY* er directed by two-time Emmy^® Award winner Eric Drath (*Assault in the Ring and No Más, 30 for 30)*, and produced by Drath and Danielle Naassana, both of Live Star Entertainment. Sixteen-time Emmy Award winner Aaron Cohen served as writer and consulting producer.

Alexander “The Great” Flores driven to conquer Luis “King Kong” Ortiz

Oktober 29, 2020 FNU47 Legg igjen en kommentar

LAS VEGAS (Oktober 27, 2020) – California heavyweight **Alexander “The Great” Blomster** (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, starter på 8:00 pm. OG / 5:30 pm. 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 said. “Jeg er ung, sulten, 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,” Blomster’ promoter **Keith Veltre** (RJJ Boxing CEO/co-founder) lagt, “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 (SLIK AS), lost in 2014 to world champions **Charles Martin** og **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, who lives in Miami, 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. Som en amatør, Ortiz had a reported 349-19 rekord, and he captured a gold medal at the 2006 Cubanske NM.

Boxing a family affair for Idaho amateur boxer Kendra Samargis

Oktober 29, 2020 FNU47 Legg igjen en kommentar

COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (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 NM, Desember 5-12, at Shreveport Convention Center in Shreveport, Louisiana.

Boxing for the 26-year-old Samargis, who lives in Twin Falls, is a real family affair. She’s trained by her husband, Jason, and their two sons, Skyler Bellus (11) and Riley Marovich (8), are in USA Boxing. Skyler, faktisk, has competed in several tournaments in which his mother also fought.

“I got into boxing just as a form of weight loss,” Kendra explained. “My husband had been a boxing coach for many years and he still had all of his equipment. We set it up in our garage and started training. Først, starting out was the worst thing I had ever done. The amount of stamina, endurance, and strength that I needed to have was unreal. Slowly over time I lost tremendous weight, 73-pounds to be exact, and I came to love the sport.

“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. Også, 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. Nå, my sons competing with me, vel, 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. På slutten av dagen, skjønt, 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 and both of her sons will be competing in Shreveport this year, despite having to train during the COVID-19 pandemic to prepare for the first national tournament of the year in the United States.

“Training during the pandemic has been a blessing for me,” Kendra said. “We now own a gym in town. Så, during the times we had to close our doors, min mann, kids and I were able to keep up with our training regimen. I learned so much during this time. We were actually able to slow things down and work on so many things that get overlooked. We are also very lucky to live in a small town, we only had to keep our gym closed for two months and we’ve been up and running since. I could only image how hard it must be for so many people during these times. We were very blessed to have a gym to get us through.”

Currently ranked No. 10 ved 152 pounds and No. 5 ved 165, Kendra’s highlights thus far are winning gold medals at the 2019 Eastern Elite Qualifier and 2018 Nasjonale Golden Gloves Tournament.

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.

Omsider, 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. For nå, skjønt, 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 Legg igjen en kommentar

**Tidligere verdensmester Lipinets kamper ubeseiret**
**Custio Clayton for Interim IBF Welterweight Title**
**Live på SHOWTIME^® Lørdag, Oktober 24 Overskrift a**
**Premier Boxing Champions-begivenhet**

**NEW YORK** (Oktober 20, 2020) – Even with a change in date and then opponent, tidligere verdensmester **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 pm. ET / 6 pm. PT) headlining a Premier Boxing Champions event.

“We never missed a beat in preparation, even with the opponent change,”Sa 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. I don’t really care, skjønt. 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,”Sa 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, and because of that, I never lost focus.”

Clayton is a Canadian Olympian with an unblemished pro resume heading into this showdown. While Lipinets notes that there are differences in the fighting styles between Abdukakhorov and Clayton, none of it changes his intent on October 24.

“I know that Clayton has a great amateur background,”Sa Lipinets. “I’ve checked out his style, and the main difference is that Abdukakhorov is more active and Clayton is more accurate. Abdukakhorov is also a little more aggressive and Clayton is more patient.

“I don’t think one is tougher or easier than the other. I think that anyone fighting at this level is a difficult opponent. Abdukakhorov moves around more and can be more awkward with the different styles he uses. Both are very tough guys, 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,”Sa 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 pro fight. 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 TRENINGSCAMP NOTATER

Oktober 17, 2020 FNU47 Legg igjen en kommentar

***"I oktober 31 alle vil se hva jeg er i stand til," – Heraldez***

Ubeseiret utøver Juan Heraldez står overfor tidligere verdensmester Regis Prograis i SHOWTIME PPV^® ActionLørdag, Oktober 31 Lev fra Alamodome i San Antonio, Texas i et arrangement presentert av Premier Boxing Champions

**NEW YORK – Oktober 16, 2020 –** Uovertruffen super lett utfordrer **Juan Heraldez** er dypt inne i treningsleir og delte innsikt i forberedelsene hans når han nærmer seg et oppgjør mot tidligere mester **Regis "Rougarou" Prograis** på lørdag, Oktober 31 live på SHOWTIME PPV i et Premier Boxing Champions-arrangement overskrevet av Gervonta Davis vs.. Leo Santa Cruz bor fra Alamodome i San Antonio.

«Det har vært en lang åtte ukers leir som forbereder seg på Prograis,”Sa Heraldez. “Vi kjemper mot en annen kampstil, noe som er bra fordi han er den typen jagerfly som kommer for å kjempe. En stil som dette gjør det lettere for meg å trene og forberede meg.

“Prograis har makt, men du må lande det, og det er der forsvaret mitt kommer inn i bildet. Forsvaret mitt har alltid vært en faktor, og det er noe vi alltid tilpasser og finner måter for meg å bli skarpere. På papiret er hans legitimasjon der oppe, men i ringen går alt dette ut av døren. Når klokken ringer, Jeg tenker ikke på at han var en tidligere verdensmester. Jeg kjemper og får jobben gjort. ”

Heraldez har tilpasset seg endringene som oppstår ved trening under pandemien, og har vært i stand til å holde fokus hele leiren. Han krediterer infrastrukturen på Mayweather Boxing Club, der han trener i Las Vegas, for å hjelpe til med å holde ting i orden mens han forbereder seg på å møte sin tøffeste motstander til dags dato.

“Pandemien har hatt en liten innvirkning på leiren som den har med alt annet,”Sa Heraldez. “Det er så mange protokoller og sikkerhetstiltak, slik at du ikke bare kan rotere sparringpartnere så lett som du kunne før. Å tilpasse seg å bruke en maske i treningsstudioet og bli testet hele tiden er ting du lærer å bli vant til. Mayweather Boxing Club har gjort en god jobb med å holde treningsstudioet rent og trygt for oss alle. Mange av stallkameratene mine er her i Las Vegas og forbereder seg på store kamper, så det er en god følelse å vite at vi kan komme til et treningsstudio der sikkerhet er topp prioritet. "

Den ubeseirede Heraldez kommer tilbake til ringen etter å ha kjempet den tidligere verdensmesteren Argenis Mendez til uavgjort i mai 2019 på SHOWTIME. Heraldez hadde satt sammen en imponerende rekke seire fra en 2017 triumfer over den da ubeseirede Jose Miguel Borrego, og inkluderte en knockout-seier over Eddie Ramirez i februar 2019 fører inn i Mendez-kampen. Heraldez har fortsatt å finjustere sitt arsenal på vei inn i Prograis-kampen.

“Teamet mitt og jeg har jobbet med forskjellige ting, for eksempel jabben min, men viktigst av alt der jeg er i ringen til enhver tid,”Sa Heraldez. “Min ringbevissthet har løftet denne leiren. Treneren min og jeg holder ting på skolen, vi har ikke styrke- og kondisjonstrener, vi jobber med det grunnleggende og blir bedre på dem hver leir. Boksing er enkelt. Hold deg og beveg deg og ikke bli truffet. Treningen jeg får fra trener Otis Pimpleton dekker så mange ting som kondisjonstrening, teknikk, ring IQ, etc., så jobben min er bare å lytte til teamet mitt og stole på dem når jeg er i leir og i ringen på kampkvelden. "

Mens Heraldez ønsker å forbedre uavgjort i sin siste kamp, Prograis vil prøve å sprette tilbake fra sitt første karrieretap, et minneverdig samleobjekt på 140 pund med Josh Taylor. Med begge krigerne sulten på seier i oktober 31, Heraldez forventer en spennende kveld for fansen.

“På kampkveld, begge stilene våre gir god action,”Sa Heraldez. “Vi bringer begge mye til ringen. Vi kjemper begge for å være best, men i oktober 31, alle vil se hva jeg er i stand til. ”

***OM DAVIS VS. SANTA CRUZ***
Davis vs. Santa Cruz vil se tre ganger verdensmester **Gervonta “Tank” Davis** og firedivisjons verdensmester **Leo "Jordskjelvet" Santa Cruz** kjempe om WBA Super Featherweight og WBA Lightweight Championships med en SHOWTIME PPV lørdag, Oktober 31 (9 pm.
