Boxing Manager and 2016 Forbes “30 Under 30” Honoree Adrian Clark Offers Manifesto to Help Fighters Clarify Roles

Skryf 'n opmerking
A Revolution in Boxer-Manager Relationships
DALLAS, TEXAS, Februarie 11, 2015 – In an unprecedented move, boxing manager and owner of AC Sports Management, Adrian Clark, has issued a challenge to professional boxers all over the world in the form of a free legal document: The Boxer-Manager Agreement now allows professional fighters to contract the services of their managers.

 

 

Tipies, in die boks, the manager has the boxer under contract for a minimum of three years. The Boxer-Manager Agreement clarifies the role and duties of the manager, giving both parties the opportunity to evaluate one another fairly and to ensure the boxer is in the executive position.

 

“I want guys to develop a mindset of a CEO,” Clark said, “because that’s what they are. They must understand what it is to be in a position of power and able to call shots and make tough executive decisions in their careers.”

 

Clark’s main concern is that many boxers may be working as if they are the subordinate, unlike other executives. “Name me one CEO that is under contract to his spokesperson, or to anyone he is paying” Clark said.

 

Clark, currently in his sixth year of boxing management, has been selected as one of Forbes’ 30 Under 30 (Sport) vir 2016. He has just released his first book, getiteld “i: A Guide for Young Entrepreneurs,” available from Amazon.

 

“As a business owner, I do what makes sense in regards to business, Clark said. “I have been in the boxing business long enough to see that the common boxer-manager arrangement does not make sense. I’d like to think this document is a game-changer in the sport of boxing for the athletes. It is now up to the athletes to exercise this agreement and be in more control of their careers and who is representing them.”

 

The Boxer-Manager Agreement is available for download on Clark’s website (www.ACsportsm.com/manifesto.html), verniet. Clark has recorded a video there encouraging fighters to download the document. He also urges them to further educate themselves on the business they are in.

 

A graduate of Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Clark currently manages seven clients, including former world title challenger Jerry Belmontes, former IBO World champion Will Tomlinson, and James de la Rosa, wie het 'n Maart 12 showdown with David Lemieux in Montreal, Quebec. At age 25, Clark was certified by the National Basketball Players Association as a “Player Agent” (Sports Agent). Clark founded AC Sports Management, LLC, in 2012.

Skryf 'n opmerking
New York – Twee keer wêreldkampioen, Amanda ‘The Real Deal’ Serrano from Carolina, Puerto Rico, but now living in Brooklyn, will be fighting on Februarie 17 in Manhatthan for the vacant WBO World female featherweight title against former world champion, Olivia Gerula of Canada.
The ambitious Puerto Rican lefty wants to become the undisputed world champion in the featherweight division, and has a message to the current title holders.
“Nou, I’m only focused on Olivia, but at the same time I’m very confident about bringing that belt to Brooklyn and Puerto Rico on Februarie 17,” said Amanda Serrano, who is promoted by DiBella Entertainment.
“Once I get that beatiful belt, we will be looking to unify. There is Jennifer Han, who is the IBF world champion, Soledad Matthysse is the WBC and WBA champion, and she is fighting Jelena Mrdjenovich. I want the winner!”
“Unifying all four featherweight titles is the only thing we care about. If we fail to make that happen, I will go down to 122 to fight for another world title, and become a four division legitimate world champion just like Miguel Cotto”.
Serrano (26-1-1, 19 KO) vs. gerula (17-15-2, 3KO) showdown will take place at the famed B.B. King Blues Club and Grill marking the first world title fight in the club’s history.

Serrano se eerste titel bewind gekom in September 2011, when she knocked out Kimberly Connor in the first round to become the IBF World Champion at the super featherweight division in a bout held in Brooklyn.

Boks Vir Die Beginner; Hoe om te begin met die lieflike wetenskap

Skryf 'n opmerking

Deur: Rich Bergeron

 

Boks is 'n unieke sportsoort, om die minste te sê. Dit word dikwels "die lieflike wetenskap" genoem, met terme uit die sport wat gereeld gebruik word om intense wedywerings en wedstryde in 'n magdom ander sportsoorte te beskryf. In metafore oor politiek word daar gereeld na boks verwys. Alhoewel die gewildheid van boks nie deesdae was nie, dit is steeds een van die mees uitdagende en afskrikwekkende sportaktiwiteite waaraan iemand wettiglik regoor die wêreld kan deelneem.

As u belangstel om 'n loopbaan in die boks te volg of net daarna wil kyk leer die basiese beginsels, die voordele van die bemeestering van die kuns van pugilisme kan baie lonend wees. Op dieselfde tyd, daar is 'n groot verskil tussen "deur die moties gaan" en die tyd bestee om 'n suksesvolle beroep te neem. Óf manier, as u hard werk en u toewyding tot leer handhaaf, u oefening sal beslis verhoogde selfvertroue en verhoogde fisieke fiksheid.

As u van plan is om u lesse op die een of ander stadium na die vlak te neem waar u gereed is om mee te ding, u benodig 'n ernstige oefenprogram van minstens twee tot drie uur per dag. U moet ook 'n gesiene boksgimnasium vind. Aanlyn soektogte moet u lei na 'n fasiliteit in u omgewing, maar u kan ook 'n bekwame afrigter soek wat moontlik tuis kan werk as daar geen boksgimnasiums in u omgewing is nie.. Hier is 'n gedetailleerde artikel oor hoe om die beste gimnasium vir u behoeftes te vind.

As u net wil weet hoe u moet beweeg, gooi slae en verdedig jouself, daar is spesifieke fasiliteite wat spesialiseer in die basiese beginsels wat aan u behoeftes voldoen. Een van die bekendste en landwye operasies vir basiese boks- en skopbokslesse is Titel Boksklub. Hulle bied uitgebreide oefensessies en groepklasse onder toesig van professionele afrigters wat beloof om 'u te help om meer selfversekerd te voel, verbrand meer kalorieë en verloor gewig. ” Dit is belangrik om te onthou dat fasiliteite soos Title Boxing Club nie regtig ontwerp is vir mededingende boksopleiding nie, aangesien hul aanbiedinge hoofsaaklik daarop gerig is om boks te leer vir selfverdediging, oefening, gewigsverlies en stresvrystellingsdoeleindes.

Dit verg nie veel toewyding of opoffering om boks te neem net vir die fiksheidsvoordele nie. Dit is eintlik 'n deel van die sport wat baie gewild word omdat die oefensessies byna al die spiere in jou liggaam voordele bied.. Hollywood-sterre, modelle, en selfs reality-televisie-sterre sweer by boksoefeninge as 'n manier om hul aantreklike figure en hul jeugdige voorkoms te behou.

Time Magazine 'n storie gepubliseer Mei, 2015 wat boks beskryf het as een van die gewildste fiksheidstendense van die jaar.

Steeds, boksopleiding vir nie-mededingende doeleindes kan intens en ontstellend wees vir iemand wat nog nooit tevore 'n paar bokshandskoene aangetrek het nie. Benewens pons, voetwerk en verdedigingsoefeninge, daar sal sit-ups wees, opstote, springtou en waarskynlik baie hardloop wat u oefen- en oefenroetine sal bevoordeel. U het miskien nie dieselfde tydsverbintenis nodig as u nie meeding nie, maar baie van die oefensessies sal baie ooreenstem met wat pro boksers elke dag in die gimnasium doen as hulle nie spartel nie.

As u 'n ander bokser in kompetisie spartel en veg, bring u opleiding op 'n heel nuwe vlak. Boks is 'n baie hoë risiko aktiwiteit, alhoewel hoofbedekkings, mondstukke en georganiseerde reëls en voorskrifte maak dit vandag baie veiliger as toe dit die eerste handskoenwedstryd was. Mense sterf steeds in boksgevegte, en soms word lewenslange komplikasies van enkele wedstryde of lang loopbane van te veel slae ondervind.

Om hierdie redes, die besluit om mededingend te boks, moet nie impulsief wees of ligtelik geneem word nie. U moet bereid wees om die risiko's van ernstige beserings te aanvaar as u van boks 'n loopbaan wil maak. U moet goed vertroud wees met verdedigingstegnieke en bewus wees van die tekens van harsingskudding of breinbesering. Volledige kontakbesparingsessies moet slegs onder toesig van opgeleide professionele persone plaasvind, en albei vegters moet opdrag gegee word om ongeveer die helfte soveel krag in hul slae te gebruik as in 'n werklike kompetisie. Steeds, as jy van plan is om as 'n amateur of 'n professionele persoon te boks, 'n soort besering is amper onvermydelik. Op 'n stadium sal u 'n split lip hê, bloedneus, swart oog en / of 'n nare snit. So, as jy regtig 'n mededingende bokser wil wees, maak seker dat u voldoende gesondheidsversekering het indien u mediese hulp benodig as gevolg van u deelname aan die sport.

Meer as die risiko's wat u in die gesig staar, dit is uiters belangrik dat u weet dat u gaan oefen dat boks een van die moeilikste sportsoorte op die planeet is. Daar is geen span wat u kan meeding as u 'n slegte dag op kantoor het nie. Daar is net twee deelnemers in elke wedstryd: jy en jou opponent. Enigiemand met moed en vasberadenheid kan in 'n boksring trap en veg, maar dit verg 'n spesiale soort toewyding en bereidwilligheid om tyd en werk in te span om trofeë te wen, medaljes en / of geld deur u prestasies in die ring.

Die meeste boksers het jare lank amateurbokse deurgemaak voor hul eerste professionele wedstryd. Dit is nie verpligtend vir 'n bokser om in die amateurs te veg voordat hy pro gaan speel nie, maar dit word beslis aanbeveel. Sommige boksers mag nooit in die professionele geledere gaan nie, al presteer hulle wel in die amateurs. Daar is selfs 'n Afdeling "Meesters" vir mense 35 en ouer.

Tog, selfs amateurbokse behels baie harde werk. Die belangrikste verskille tussen amateur- en pro-wedstryde is dat die meeste amateurwedstryde korter duur as pro-gevegte en dat deelnemers hoofbedekkings dra wat beskerming bied aan die kant van die kop en in sommige dele van die gesig.. Steeds, die slae wat op daardie hoofbedekking beland, kan net so moeilik wees om te tref as treffers wat op jou kaal skedel aansluit.

Of u van plan is om u talente na die professionele geledere te neem of nie, amateurbokse kan 'n uitstekende vertrekpunt wees. Hier is 'n paar goeie artikels wat beskryf hoe u amateurbokskanse kan benut:

http://www.artofmanliness.com/2010/11/18/amateur-boxing-for-beginners-a-how-to-guide-part-i/

http://www.livestrong.com/article/420913-how-to-get-started-in-amateur-boxing/

Sommige kolleges bied ook boks aan, met die Amerikaanse militêre akademies wat oor die jare die mees dominante spanne aangebied het. Al word dit nie by byna soveel kolleges aangebied as tradisionele sportsoorte soos sokker en bofbal nie, die kompetisie kan net so fel wees as in die ander sportsoorte, indien nie veel meer nie.

Dit maak nie saak hoe u besluit om te begin boks vir fiksheid of kompetisie nie, om daarby te hou, sal 'n sterk wil en 'n gesonde verskaffing van geestelike sowel as fisieke taaiheid verg. Om die sport werklik te bemeester, kan jare duur, indien nie dekades nie. Of jy nou boks vir geld of vir glorie, dit kan die moeite werd wees om die risiko's te neem wat u neem om deel te neem. U sal altyd onthou dat u die eerste keer aan die einde van u geveg opgesteek het. Om 'n wêreldkampioen te word, lê miskien nie in u kaarte nie, maar net om die teenstander te betree, sal u in 'n klas mense plaas waarmee u altyd trots sal wees.

Bellows is set for his most high-profile fight to date and shared his thoughts on training camp, his promoter Floyd Mayweather, sy teenstander en meer:
How is training camp going?
Training camp is going beautifully. It’s going as planned. I’m training with Otis Pimpleton and Rafael Ramos at the Mayweather Boxing Club. I’m doing everything they are asking for and we’re more than prepared for this fight.
What do you know about your opponent?
I know he’s tall and that he likes to box a little bit. I know for sure that he’s going to lose onFebruarie 16. He doesn’t have a chance of winning. He jabs and runs well so I’m preparing for that. I’m going to come into the ring and bring all I got.
You’ve fought in Las Vegas more than anywhere throughout your career. What does it mean to you to be a “Las Vegas Fighter”?
It’s definitely a beautiful thing. Las Vegas is the boxing capital of the world. I’m a resident of Las Vegas now so fighting in where I consider to be my home means a lot of fans, familie, and team support.
What are the advantages you have in training at the Mayweather Boxing Club with the other Mayweather Promotions’ vegters?
There’s a level of competition here that motivates me to strive harder and to do my best. When you look to your left and your right, everyone here is trying to do the exact same thing. We have the same goal in mind. It definitely keeps you focused and pushes you to keep going.
How influential has Floyd been in your career?
Floyd has been very influential in my career. He’s the reason for me even being a part of Mayweather Promotions. His work ethic is something I try to mimic and gives me the motivation to take my career to the next level. It’s a very positive and impactful influence. Floyd leads by example. He’s a very busy man so he can’t always be at the gym. But when he does come in, he advises me on things that I need to work on and how I can improve myself. He always brings that positive energy wherever he goes.
What are your thoughts on fighting on television for the first time?
It was bound to happen. At all the other fights I’ve participated in, there are always cameras rolling. The only difference now is that I’m going to be televised. I’m still going to go out there and take care of business. There’s always pressure whenever you enter the ring but for me being televised just adds to my motivation. I get to showcase my talent and the work I’ve put in to my training for everyone to see. Aan die einde van die dag, whether I’m on television or not, I’m still a fighter and I’m here to win.
What are your goals for your career in 2016?
My goals for this year are to be a minor belt holder and a contender for a world championship belt. I just want to be able to build on to my legacy for my family, vriende, and my fans. I want to be the best I can be, not just this year but for my entire career.

Unbeaten Middleweight Contender Antoine Douglas Meets Former Champ Sam Soliman; Super Welterweight Tony Harrison Battles Fernando Guerrero
NEW YORK (Februarie. 10, 2016) – Undefeated super welterweight contender Julian “J-Rock” Williams and once-beaten Italian Marcello Matano will square off in a 12-round IBF eliminator for the No. 1 ranking at 154-pounds in the main event of SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION op Saterdag, Maart 5, woon op Showtime (10 namiddag.

In die mede-funksie, fast-rising middleweight contender Antoine Douglas sal plaasvind op die voormalige wêreldkampioen Sam Soliman in 'n 10-round middelgewigtitel bout. In die opening bout van die beeldsending, hard-hitting prospect Tony Harrison will face veteran former world title challenger Fernando Guerrero in 'n 10-round super welterweight wedstryd.
“This upcoming fight will be the biggest fight of my career,” Williams het gesê. “I’m chomping at the bit to get back out there. I am taking my opponent very seriously and I refuse to let Marcello Matano stop me from being a world champion.”
“Dit is 'n droom wat waar geword,” said Matano. “I’ve been working for my whole life for a real opportunity to make to the top level and I will not let Julian Williams take it away. What will happen when Williams has to go to the championship rounds? Will he be ready? I know for sure that I will. This is the opportunity of a lifetime and I will do all I can to grab it.”
“Facing a former world champion like Sam Soliman is a great opportunity for me,” Douglas said. “The plan has always been to keep moving forward, and to do it successfully.

“This is an important fight for me,” said Soliman. “I had three opportunities on the table and I chose Douglas believing it to be a better fight for ranking, and it’s a challenge I’m excited to take on. From what I have seen, Douglas is a very talented fighter, which will make for a good fight. I am in great shape and looking forward to fight night.”
“I’m excited and eager to showcase my abilities to the world again,” Said Harrison. “I’d advise fans to arrive early because I don’t plan to be in the ring long. I’m knocking this guy out. I know Guerrero is coming in with a chip on his shoulder and I can’t overlook him. I brought my uncle into camp and I think that’s going to give me the edge that I’ve needed to get over the hump. I’m putting the whole division on notice!”

One of the most promising and highly regarded young stars in boxing, Williams (21-0-1, 1 ND, 13 Uitklophoue) will headline for the first time on SHOWTIME. He’s stepping up after honing his skills and steadily ascending the ranks after five fights on SHO EXTREME. The 25-year-old shut out longtime contender Joey Hernandez last April, followed that with a sixth-round stoppage of Arman Ovsepyan in June and closed the year by stopping Orlando Lora in the first round in September. The Philadelphian has also picked up victories over Joachim Alcine, Eliezer Gonzalez and Freddy Hernandez in his young career and looks to earn his first title shot with a win on Maart 5.
Matano (16-1, 5 Uitklophoue) is a former Italian super welterweight titlist. He’s registered four consecutive wins since the only loss of his career, including victories in three scheduled 12-round fights. The 29-year-old is coming off a 12-round unanimous decision over fellow-Italian Nick Klappert in October 2015. Like Williams, he fought three bouts in 2015, although he logged 31 total rounds compared to just 17 for Williams.
Douglas (19-0-1, 13 Uitklophoue) has been impressive in five consecutive victories since he boxed to a draw when he was just 21 years old with former world title challenger Michel Soro in July 2014. The former top amateur has won his last three fights by knockout, including a sixth-round KO of previously undefeated Thomas LaManna and a fourth-round TKO of veteran Les Sherrington last November in his fifth appearance on ShoBox: Die nuwe generasie. On the prospect developmental series, the 23-year-old Douglas has graduated from unproven prospect to undefeated contender and is now ranked No. 4 in the WBO and No. 6 in die WBA. Douglas is promoted by GH3 promotions.
Soliman (44-13, 1 NC, 18 Uitklophoue), van Melbourne, Australië, is vastly more experienced than Douglas, having competed in four world championship fights. The 42-year-old held the IBF Middleweight World title before suffering a debilitating knee injury and losing via decision to Jermain Taylor in his first title defense in October 2014. Soliman, wat 9-2-1 sedert 2008, won the IBF crown with a decisive 12-round decision over Felix Sturm in 2014. The Australian, who fights at a relentless pace and can be awkward at times, will look to bounce back from a close, 10-round split decision loss to Dominic Wade last June on ShoBox.
Op net 25-jaar-oue, Harrison (22-1, 18 Uitklophoue) has showed tremendous promise as he recorded a 10-fight knockout streak from 2013 te 2015 and proved he could recover from a loss when he dominated Cecil McCalla for 10-rounds in October. The Detroit-native will look to make it back-to-back victories as he continues his ascent towards championship contender status. He has picked up knockout victories over Antwone Smith, Tyrone Brunson, Bronco McKart en Pablo Munguia in die laaste twee jaar.
A former world title challenger, Warrior (28-3, 20 Uitklophoue) returned to his winning ways in 2015 with victories over Abraham Han and Daniel Souza Santos. The 29-year-old lives and trains out of Los Angeles but grew up in Maryland after being born in the Dominican Republic. The veteran owns victories over Ishe Smith, Derrick Findley and Gabriel Rosado in a pro career that dates back to 2007.

BETHLEHEM, PA. (Februarie 10, 2016) – Onoorwonne 2012 U.S. Olimpiese Jamel Herring (15-0, 8 Uitklophoue) scored a unanimous decision (100-88, 100-88, 99-89) over Colombia’s Luis Eduardo Flores (21-3, 17 Uitklophoue) in a 10-round lightweight bout in the main event of Dinsdag se Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) TOE-tot-toon DINSDAE op FS1 en Boxing Champions op Fox Sports fight card at Sands Event Center in Bethlehem, PA.
Herring, who represented the United States at the 2012 Olympic games after winning the U.S. Nasionale Amateur titel dieselfde jaar, commanded the action throughout.
“I knew if I boxed smart it would show, but I didn’t think it would be that wide a margin,” Said Herring. “He’s a very experienced fighter.”
Herring added, “I was trying to get rid of him early because he’s a dangerous guy. If you let a guy like that sit around too long there’s always the risk that you might get clipped with something and regret it.”
Herring, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, hopes the win Dinsdag night will launch him into world title contention in 2016.
Maak sy U.S. debuut, the Magangue, Colombia native Flores put on a valiant effort, recovering from a flurry in the second round that would have sent most fighters packing.
In die vyfde ronde, the 28-year-old Flores was ruled to have been knocked down twice, but disputes those calls by the ref. “Both times that the officials called it a knockdown and started counting were just slips. I didn’t actually get knocked down either time,” said Flores.
Flores added, “Ek weet dat (Herring) had the advantage vanaand, and he outperformed me. But I’ll keep trying wherever my next opportunity comes.”
“I think getting a win like this over a fighter with Flores’ experience will help me gain a lot more respect. People seeing me win on my first PBC card on national TV on FS1 and FOX Deportes just helps raise my profile and I look forward to being back,” Said Herring.
The opening televised bout featured unbeaten prospect Alex Martin (12-0, 5 Uitklophoue) verslaan Rossemberth Gomez (17-5-1, 13 Uitklophoue) deur 'n eenparige besluit (80-72, 79-73, 79-73) in 'n agt-ronde welterweight wedstryd.
Martin, 'n 2012 Nasionale kampioen vir goue handskoene, controlled much of the fight from the outside using his superior footwork to evade Gomez.
The Harvey, IL native Martin said, “I could see his punches coming from a mile away, but I should have followed up a little more than I did vanaand and let my hands go a bit more too.”
An owner of 340 amateur wins, Martin turned pro in 2013 and is yet to lose. That experience helped Martin keep his composure when Gomez taunted him repeatedly in the second round.
“We wanted to make Martin mad and get him to punch himself out if we could,” said the 29-year-old Gomez.
Martin responded to the talk of baiting saying, “I just stuck to my fundamentals, kept pumping my jab and setting him up for the next shot.
“I knew I hurt him with the uppercut. He walked right into it. And then when I threw the hook he couldn’t do anything,” sê Martin.
Following the bout Gomez said, “I plan to retire after vanaand. I care too much and fight too hard to be just another opponent.”
The second televised fight saw Raynell Williams (11-0, 5 Uitklophoue) win a unanimous decision (79-73, 79-73, 78-74) oor Gabriel Tolmajyan (14-3-2, 3 Uitklophoue) in eight rounds of lightweight action.
'N Lid van die 2008 U.S. in 'n 10-ronde swaargewig kragmeting in die mede-funksie, Cleveland’s Williams was able to establish himself early and get in a rhythm.
“The only time he was able to catch me with anything was when I got a little lazy,” het Williams gesê.
Williams caught Tolmajyan with a big right hand in the fourth round, seemingly stunning Tolmajyan momentarily, but he kept his composure and didn’t allow himself to become overzealous.
“I was focused on boxing him and not so much worried about the knockout,” added Williams. “I knew I was winning the rounds.”
In the final frame, Tolmajyan, fighting out of Glendale, SOOS, caught Williams with a shot that nearly ended things.
Williams recalled, “It was an overhand left that he hit me with. And then he came after me again, but the ref and I made contact, so then the ref pushed me away because he didn’t want me to try holding on to him. But once I got my feet under me I was fine.”
Egter, Tolmajyan wasn’t impressed with Williams saying, “He wasn’t as good as we were expecting and I had him hurt with my left.
“I thought that I was winning the fight to be honest. I didn’t think I was going to lose the decision,” added Tolmajyan.
Williams concluded, “I hope to learn from my mistakes vanaand. I got caught with a good punch in the last few seconds vanaand, so I just need to work on consistency and fighting until the final bell.”
