Jose Medina.jpg

 

Winter Haven, FL (Mars 21, 2016) - Comme un jeune garçon qui grandit à Puerto Rico, Jose Medina leva les yeux pour les mêmes combattants qui sont à jamais gravés dans leur riche histoire de la boxe.

 

De Felix Trinidad à Miguel Cotto et Juan Manuel Lopez, Medina avait beaucoup de combattants exceptionnels, à admirer. Il y avait une grande différence cependant. Medina était significativement plus grand que tous les grands qui a grandi sur la boxe île fou qui se trouve 1,100 miles au sud de Key West.

 

À 6'3 260 lbs, Medina est plus 75 livres plus grand que le plus grand natif de Porto Rico pour capturer un titre mondial dans Jose Torres. Ceux jaugeant Medina avant de le voir en action peut interroger son conditionnement, mais le 19-year-old est pas seulement pure en vrac si. Dans le gymnase, stablemates lui "Kung Fu Panda" appelé en raison de son agilité incroyablement impressionnant et légèreté à l'intérieur du cercle carré.

 

Comme un amateur, Medina a capturé trois championnats nationaux de Porto Rico avant de déménager en Floride en 2015 où il a remporté la Ligue Athletic police de l'État de la Floride (PAL) titre ainsi que d'argent aux Championnats du Murphy Paul. Il a également rapidement acquis une grande suite, comme la région d'Orlando est l'une des plus grandes populations portoricains aux États-Unis.

 

Cependant, cela ne signifie pas qu'il n'y avait pas sceptiques.

 

«Quand il a d'abord venu ici, il n'a jamais fait l'entraînement en force avant,», A déclaré l'entraîneur Marco Fazzani. «Les gens l'ont vu quand nous sommes allés d'abord dans les gymnases et ils pensaient qu'il était un empoté à cause de son apparence. Ce jusqu'à ce que nous lui avons dans le ring et tout le monde a réalisé Medina est pas une blague. Depuis qu'il a été la formation ici, il a grandi de deux pouces et est devenu beaucoup plus fort physiquement. Nous travaillons également chaque jour pour améliorer son physique ".

 

Sur Mars 4, Medina a fait ses débuts professionnels au Pavillon de l'événement A La Carte à Tampa contre Richard White. Certes nerveux, Medina a surmonté le trac attendus qui sont venus avec enlever le couvre-chef pour la première fois et a marqué un deuxième tour à élimination directe.

 

Après avoir traversé le combat blanc sans incident, Medina se bat pour la deuxième fois en moins de 30 jours où il rencontre Todd Bradley de Brandon, Sport FL dans un combat de quatre rondes dans le cadre de la lutte contre le Mad Integrity’ "Bombs Away 5" Samedi, Avril 2au Bayfront Hilton St. Pétersbourg, FL. Comme un combattant qui est encore en développement dans de nombreux aspects, Medina comprend l'importance de rester occupé et est excité plutôt que nerveux pour son deuxième combat professionnel.

 

«Je suis très reconnaissant à se battre sur cette carte,», A déclaré Medina. "Nous nous attendons à une grande participation sur Avril 2. Je l'ai vu Bradley combattre avant, mais je ne donne jamais mon plan de match à l'extérieur. Plus important, Je veux donner à mes fans un excellent divertissement et sortir victorieux ".

 

Promoteur Joey Orduna de Mad Integrity Lutte Sport, qui était certes surpris quand voir Medina en action, est impatient de l'avoir sur la carte.

 

"Jose a une tonne de talent et il va certainement être un aliment de base dans la région de Tampa-St Pétersbourg comme il se développe. Il a déjà obtenu une très bonne base de fans et comme un poids lourd avec la vitesse et la puissance, le nombre de personnes qui le suivent ne fera que croître. Je suis très heureux de le voir aller travailler sur le 2Dakota du Nord et croyez ceux qui ne l'ont pas vu avant sont un régal ".

Tickets for the event promoted by DiBella Entertainment and Holden Productions are $45, $55 et $75 and can be purchased by logging onto Buffalorun.com or Stubwire.com.

 

Invaincu en 16 professional bouts with six wins by knockout, Cook’s fought five of his last seven matches at the Buffalo Run, winning handily each time. A member of Holden Productions“Four State Franchise”, the popular Cook is from nearby Seneca, MO and fought in front of sellout crowds on multiple occasions. While these are definite advantages for Cook, DeLoach comes into the ring with an impressive background.

 

Against DeLoach, 13-1 (7 KO), Cook is taking a significant step up in competition and will do so before a national audience. Hailing from Augusta, GA and based in Houston, TX, DeLoach trained alongside top fighters including IBF junior middleweight champion Jermall Charlo, undefeated Jermell Charlo, Bryan Vera and Edwin Rodriguez amongst others. Récemment, Team DeLoach announced that his new chief second is former two division champion Paul Williams and highly respected George Peterson will work as an assistant.

 

To prepare for DeLoach, Cook’s been training out of the Heartland Boxing Gym and travels to various gyms for sparring as he anxiously waits for the opening bell on Mars 25.

 

“I’m excited for the fight but trying not to let the pressure of fighting on TV get to me,” said Cook, a former National Junior Golden Gloves titlist and six time Kansas City Golden Gloves winner. "(To specifically prepare for DeLoach) we’re working on (technique to counter) his style. DeLoach is a good fighter I’ve seen him fight a few times he’s fast and a busy fighter but I’m pretty fast myself. I expect to match his speed, if not beat it.”

 

Cook also acknowledges his advantages and never second guessed taking the step up in competition.

 

“I’m a smart fighter and can adapt well (plus le) hometown crowd is definitely a benefit. I knew we’d step (up the competition in the near future) and this is a great time for it. I’ve had 16 professional fights and am ready to show the world that I’m capable of going to the next level.”

 

Cook’s promoter, Tony Holden, is confident in his fighter and believes the locals will come out droves to support him.

 

“I’m proud to see him get a shot on a national stage. He’s a key part of the “Four State Franchise” and is a big crowd draw. He’s worked very hard and I expect him to put forth a tremendous performance. I’d like to personally thank Showtime as well for this incredible opportunity.”

 

The Cook-DeLoach bout opens up a quadrupleheader live on Showtime (10:30 PM ET). The card also features highly regarded junior welterweight Regis Prograis (16-0) against Aaron Herrera (29-4-1), two showdowns where somebody’s 0 must go between unbeaten welterweights Ivan Golub (10-0) and Marlon Aguas (9-0) and junior welterweights Ivan Baranchyk (9-0) vs Nicholas Givhan (16-0-1).

Theophane and Love held court at the Mayweather Boxing Club as they went discussed their upcoming showdowns with media.
Voici ce que les combattants avaient à dire Jeudi:
ASHLEY THEOPHANE
The focus is to go in there and outwork him on fight night. At the end of the day I have to set the pace. I can’t go out there and outbox him because he’s got tremendous skill and speed. So I have to be able to go out there and outwork him and make it a war.
When he sees that I’m still there in round 5, he’s going to start to get worried. My whole thing on fight night is to work and bring a war.
“Comme un boxeur, you want to fight the best, and you want these big nights. Pour moi, it’s been a hard road to get to this point, and I’m actually looking forward to fight night because I know it’s going to be a very hard fight, and I know in order for me to win I have to be at my best, and that’s what I have prepared for.
I’ve been sparring a lot of strong young men in camp; a lot of guys who many believe will be future stars of boxing, and I’ve been doing very well, so I’m more than ready. It’s just a matter of counting down the days now.
My career shows that if you believe in yourself and never give up, you will get your opportunity. À ce moment, it’s just up to you to take it.
I feel I will be able to match him come fight night. I know I’m the big underdog, I know I’m not being given the chance to win, but I really believe we are going to prove the doubters wrong and be world champ come Avril 1.
It just became real to be in the same place with him [Broner] at the press conference. It was more motivation to come back in the gym. Once we got back, the guys here at the gym saw me sparring the next day and said they can tell he had motivated me. Il peut parler, but on fight night, nous devons nous battre. He said he’s going to stop me in 4 tours, so I’ll be looking forward to seeing that because I’m not going anywhere. I’m going to be there for the whole 12 tours.
Mayweather Promotions believed in me from the very start and they flew with me in the deep end. I have improved from being around Floyd, and watching him. You have to improve with being around him-the best fighter of all time-you have to improve.
J'LEON AMOUR
“La formation a été très; Je suis en bonne santé, I’m focused, my weight is not bad, I can’t complain. I actually took a week off in September of last year, and have been right back in the gym. We’ve been training ever since for 5 ou 6 months now, so we were already ahead.
“Ce mec [Gbenga], despite his record, has been in the ring more times than me, so he is a lot more experienced. He can survive, or do little things that can upset my game plan, mais en même temps, I’ve been there done that, and just ready to showcase my talent.
Every fight is important, whether it’s the first couple of fights, or now. Me, this is a stay busy fight-stay busy, showcase my talent, look impressive, and show that we’re ready for a world title. Not just fight for a world title, but win a world title. Be a world champion. Continue to reach different levels in the game.
“J'ai faim, I feel like this is already written for me. I didn’t make it this far for nothing, or to be a contender. For a world championship fight, I’m going to definitely seize the moment so I’m going to go out there and do what I do best, and that is to fight.
I’m a pretty slick fighter, very smart fighter, so I’ve dissected him already and he makes a lot of mistakes. I think he’ll fall into the trap, and I feel like I will get him out of there. I’m very confident in my training and my ability.

Daigle, a long-time respected staple of the Southern boxing scene, as well as a top executive for Juice Plus personal health and safety products, brought in some medical heavy hitters to assist coaches MauriceTermiteWatkins and Eleazar Renteria with the hidden side of training a fighter: nutrition.
Dr. Roy Vartabedian is a best-selling international author who has specialized in the field of health promotion and disease prevention for over 30 ans. He also holds a Master of Public Health degree in Health Education and Nutrition.
Vartabedian’s book, Nutripoints, was a New York Times Best-Seller, and has been used in a total of 13 countries in 10 languages worldwide.
The challenge is when these guys are working out so much, once or twice a day, they’re actually having a problem with losing muscle because it’s hard for them to eat enough calories to maintain their weight,” said Vartabedian, “or the way they do it is unhealthy which will decrease their stamina and endurance.
The average person, says Vartabedian only needs 2000 à 2500 calories per day. Heavyweight fighters in training need somewhere in the neighborhood of 4000 à 4500.
Justin is at 232 lbs right now. He’s at his best at 238. Si, he wants to be on an alkaline diet, which supposedly creates alkalinity in the body which is healthier than acidity for peak performance. That’s means a plant-based and unprocessed food diet. The problem with that kind of diet is it’s very high in bulk and low on calories. What I’ve done is fine tune it for him. I’ve given him a list of high-calorie, good fat foods and added them to his diet so he’s getting more calories and good fats and more fiber. I’m recommending to increase calories in a healthy way with lots of almonds, cashews, sunflowers seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, macadamia nuts, all unsalted. This will add about 500 calories to a person’s diet in about three handfuls a day.
Dr. Charles H. Campbell is a Board Certified Ophthalmologist, specializes in retinal disease. A world-renowned surgeon and the founder and Medical Director of South Texas Retina Consultants, Campbell has given his life to the treatment of macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachments and tears, macular holes and puckers, floaters, retinal vein occlusions, complications of cataract surgery, vitritis/uveitis.
Campbell has also lent his talents and know-how to the management of fighters, including former heavyweight contender Skip Scott.
We’re making sure he stays in shape by maintaining a clean lifestyle,” said Campbell. “We make sure he’s eating right. I feel like athletes think they can get all the protein they want, but most of us get 110 grams a day, which is way too much. Si, we can regulate his water and protein intake. He probably needs 10-12 servings of fruit, so we give him Juice Plus which is proven to put about 6 ½ servings into your body.
Campbell says a common mistake fighters make is in their fluid intake.
Most of these athletes don’t drink enough water. For his size he probably needs a gallon and a half a day. But mostly, I hope to help him make sure he doesn’t get off track and eat bad foods.
Daigle has big plans for Jones, who recently signed with Warriors Boxing and Leon Margules, one of the top promotional firms in the world. It was Warriors Vice-President Dominic Pesoli who first gave Jones the added moniker ofTriple J.
There is no heavyweight that has better foot movement and throws more combinations than Triple J,” said Daigle. “Once given the opportunity Justin will surprise the world. There are a lot of taller heavyweights that are rated in the top 10 in every sanctioning body. These guys are made-to-order for him. We are excited about his future in the NEW heavyweight division.
The fighter himself says the help of his medical dream team has been immeasurable already.
The difference has been incredible,” dit Jones. “I don’t want this secret to get out to other fighters! They both got me on Juice Plus for all its healthy vegetables and fruits and they’ve really changed my diet and given me a world of information on how to be healthy. I’ve changed how I eat with their help and it’s really benefitting me. I feel better more energized. When I started training I was 264. My last fight I was 230. It’s just getting me fit. Like a machine that can just go and go and go. That’s what they’re doing for me. I’m eating the right things to stay big but be in perfect shape at this size. I’m eating to gain weight and turning it to athletic muscle. They’re awesome. They’ve made a believer out of me.

The 29-year-old stopped Gilberto Sanchez Leon in his last bout for his second victory in a row. Ortiz was a 147-pound world champion when he defeated Berto in 2011 de mettre en place une confrontation avec Floyd Mayweather.

Berto is a former amateur standout and Olympian for his native Haiti. He challenged now-retired pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather in September.

Né à Sinaloa, Mexique, Montiel rode an eight-fight win streak heading into his October world title shot against Lee Selby. Montiel’s aggressive style frustrated Selby but it was not enough for him to grab a title in his fourth weight class.
Invaincu sur Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexique, Lara fait son U.S. debut on March 7, 2015 avec un arrêt de premier tour de Mario Macias à Las Vegas. The 25-year-old has ended seven of his last nine opponents early including experienced contenders Jovanny Soto, Jairo Hernandez et Oscar Ibarra.
