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

A Revolution in Boxer-Manager Relationships
DALLAS, TEXAS, Febbraio 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.

 

 

Tipicamente, nel pugilato, 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 payingClark said.

 

Clark, currently in his sixth year of boxing management, has been selected as one of Forbes’ 30 Under 30 (Sportivo) per 2016. He has just released his first book, titolato “io: Una guida per i giovani imprenditori,” 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), gratuito. 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, chi ha un Marzo 12 showdown with David Lemieux in Montreal, Quebec. All'età 25, Clark was certified by the National Basketball Players Association as aPlayer Agent” (Sports Agent). Clark founded AC Sports Management, LLC, in 2012.

Boxing per il principiante; Come iniziare a The Sweet Science

Da: Rich Bergeron

 

La boxe è uno sport unico, per non dire altro. E 'spesso definito come “The Sweet Science” con i termini di questo sport spesso invocato per descrivere rivalità e matchups intensi in una miriade di altri sport. La boxe è spesso fatto riferimento in metafore di politica. Anche se la popolarità del pugilato non è dove è usato per essere in questi giorni, è ancora una delle attività sportive più impegnative e scoraggiante una persona può legalmente partecipare a tutto il mondo.

Se siete interessati a uno perseguire una carriera nel pugilato o semplicemente cercando di imparare le basi, i vantaggi di padroneggiare l'arte del pugilato può essere molto gratificante. Contemporaneamente, c'è una grande differenza tra “andare con i movimenti” e dedicando il tempo che ci vuole per essere un professionista di successo. In entrambi i casi, se si lavora duro e mantenere la vostra dedizione all'apprendimento, la vostra formazione sarà sicuramente comporterà sia una maggiore fiducia e migliorato la forma fisica.

Se avete intenzione di prendere le lezioni al livello in cui si è pronti a competere a un certo punto, avrete bisogno di un serio regime di allenamento di almeno due o tre ore al giorno. Avrete anche bisogno di trovare una palestra di boxe stimabile. ricerche online si dovrebbe portare ad una struttura nella vostra zona, ma si può anche cercare un allenatore competente che potrebbe essere in grado di lavorare con voi da casa se non ci sono palestre di pugilato vicino a te. Ecco un articolo dettagliato su come trovare la migliore palestra per le vostre esigenze.

Se si vuole semplicemente sapere come muoversi, colpire l'avversario e difendersi, ci sono strutture specifiche che si specializzano nei principi fondamentali che possono soddisfare le tue esigenze. Una delle operazioni più noti e nazionale per le lezioni di base di boxe e kickboxing è Titolo Boxing Club. Essi offrono sessioni di allenamento completi e lezioni di gruppo coordinate da istruttori professionisti che promettono “per aiutare a sentirsi più sicuri, bruciare più calorie e perdere peso.”E 'importante ricordare che servizi come titolo Boxing Club non sono realmente progettati per l'allenamento di boxe competitiva, come le loro offerte sono orientate principalmente verso l'insegnamento di boxe per autodifesa, esercizio, Ai fini di rilascio di perdita di peso e lo stress.

Non ci vuole molta devozione e sacrificio a prendere al pugilato esclusivamente per i benefici del fitness. Si tratta di una parte di questo sport che sta diventando molto popolare a causa del fatto che gli allenamenti di formazione offrono vantaggi per quasi tutti i muscoli nel vostro corpo. star di Hollywood, Modelli, e anche le stelle della televisione realtà giuro per gli allenamenti di boxe come un modo per mantenere le loro figure interessanti e le loro apparizioni giovanili.

Time Magazine pubblicato una storia a maggio, 2015 quello descritto boxe come uno dei più caldi tendenze del fitness dell'anno.

Ancora, la formazione di boxe per scopi non-competitive può essere intenso e struggente per qualcuno che non ha mai messo su un paio di guantoni da boxe prima. Oltre alla punzonatura, gioco di gambe e difensive trapani, ci saranno sit-up, sollevamento, salto-roping e molto probabilmente una grande quantità di corsa che andrà a beneficio vostra routine di allenamento e allenamento. Potrebbe non essere necessario lo stesso tipo di impegno di tempo, se non sono in competizione, ma molti degli allenamenti sarà molto simile a quello che pro pugili fanno in palestra ogni giorno, quando non sono sparring.

Sparring e combattere un altro pugile in concorrenza porta la vostra formazione a un livello completamente nuovo. La boxe è un'attività molto ad alto rischio, però copricapo, boccagli e regole organizzati e regolamenti rendono oggi molto più sicuro di quanto lo fosse quando il primo concorso di boxe guantata ha avuto luogo. Le persone ancora muoiono in incontri di pugilato, e alcuni finiscono di fronte complicazioni per tutta la vita da incontri singoli o lunghe carriere di prendere troppi pugni.

Per queste ragioni, la decisione di box competitivo non dovrebbe essere impulsivo o prendere alla leggera. Bisogna essere disposti ad accettare il rischio di lesioni gravi, se si desidera fare una carriera boxe. Devi essere esperto in tecniche difensive ed essere consapevoli dei segni di una lesione cerebrale commozione cerebrale o. sessioni di combattimento a contatto completo dovrebbe avvenire solo sotto la supervisione di professionisti addestrati, e entrambi i combattenti devono essere istruiti a utilizzare circa la metà tanto potere nelle loro pugni come farebbero in una vera e propria competizione. Ancora, se avete intenzione di scatola come un dilettante o un professionista, un certo tipo di infortunio è quasi inevitabile. Ad un certo punto si soffre un labbro spaccato, naso sanguinante, occhio nero e / o di un brutto taglio. Così, se davvero vuole essere un pugile competitivo, essere sicuri di avere un'adeguata assicurazione sanitaria in caso avete bisogno di cure mediche derivanti dalla partecipazione nello sport.

Più che i rischi si faccia, è estremamente importante che tu sappia entrare in una formazione che la boxe è uno degli sport più difficili del pianeta. Non c'è nessuna squadra di portare voi in concorso, se si dispone di una brutta giornata in ufficio. Ci sono solo due concorrenti in ogni partita: voi e il vostro avversario. Chiunque con coraggio e tenacia può entrare in un ring di pugilato e lotta, ma ci vuole un tipo speciale di devozione e la volontà di mettere in tempo e lavorare per vincere trofei, medaglie e / o denaro attraverso le vostre gesta sul ring.

La maggior parte dei pugili passare attraverso anni di pugilato dilettantistico prima del loro primo incontro professionale. Non è obbligatorio per un pugile a combattere nei dilettanti prima di andare pro, ma è sicuramente da consigliare. Alcuni pugili possono mai andare nei ranghi professionali, anche se non eccellono nei dilettanti. C'è anche un divisione “Masters” per la gente 35 e più anziani.

Ancora, persino pugilato dilettantistico richiede un grande sforzo di duro lavoro. Le principali differenze tra le partite dilettanti e pro sono che la maggior parte delle partite amatoriali sono più brevi di durata di combattimenti pro e con i concorrenti che indossano copricapi che offre una protezione al lato della testa e alcune zone del viso. Ancora, i punzoni che atterrano su quel copricapo può essere altrettanto difficile da prendere come colpi che collegano il cranio nudo.

Se avete intenzione di prendere i vostri talenti per i ranghi professionali o no, pugilato dilettantistico può essere un ottimo punto di partenza. Qui ci sono un paio di grandi articoli che descrivono come perseguire le opportunità di pugilato dilettanti:

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/

Alcuni college offrono anche la boxe, con le accademie militari degli Stati Uniti mettendo in campo le squadre più dominante nel corso degli anni. Anche se non è offerto a quasi altrettanti collegi come sport tradizionali come il calcio e il baseball, la concorrenza può essere altrettanto forte come in quei altri sport, se non molto di più.

Non importa come si sceglie di iniziare la vostra incursione nel pugilato per il fitness o la concorrenza, attenersi ad esso richiederà una forte volontà e una sana alimentazione di entrambi durezza mentale e fisica. Veramente padroneggiare lo sport può richiedere anni, se non decenni. Sia che si Box per soldi o per la gloria, può essere vale la pena il rischio che si prende a partecipare. Sarete sempre ricordare che prima volta che aveva alzato la mano alla fine di una lotta. Diventare campione del mondo non può essere nelle carte per voi, ma basta fare un passo sul ring per combattere un avversario vi metterà in una classe di persone che sarete sempre orgogliosi di essere associati con.

Bellows is set for his most high-profile fight to date and shared his thoughts on training camp, his promoter Floyd Mayweather, il suo avversario e più:
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 onFebbraio 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 aLas 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, famiglia, and team support.
What are the advantages you have in training at the Mayweather Boxing Club with the other Mayweather Promotions’ combattenti?
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. Alla fine della giornata, 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, amici, and my fans. I want to be the best I can be, not just this year but for my entire career.

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 KO) 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: La nuova generazione. 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 nel WBA. Douglas is promoted by GH3 promotions.
Soliman (44-13, 1 NC, 18 KO), di Melbourne, Australia, 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, che è 9-2-1 da 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.
A soli 25 anni di età, Harrison (22-1, 18 KO) has showed tremendous promise as he recorded a 10-fight knockout streak from 2013 a 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 e Pablo Munguia negli ultimi due anni.
A former world title challenger, Guerriero (28-3, 20 KO) 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.

BETLEMME, PA. (Febbraio 10, 2016) – Undefeated 2012 U.S. Olimpionico Jamel Herring (15-0, 8 KO) scored a unanimous decision (100-88, 100-88, 99-89) over Colombia’s Luis Eduardo Flores (21-3, 17 KO) in a 10-round lightweight bout in the main event of Martedì Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) MARTEDI TOE-to-toe su FS1 e Boxing Champions su FOX Sports fight card at Sands Event Center in Bethlehem, PA.
Aringa, who represented the United States at the 2012 Olympic games after winning the U.S. Titolo Nazionale Dilettanti nello stesso anno, 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,” Ha detto Herring. “He’s a very experienced fighter.
Aringa aggiunta, “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.
Aringa, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, hopes the win Martedì night will launch him into world title contention in 2016.
Facendo il suo U.S. debutto, 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.
Nel quinto round, 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, “So che (Aringa) had the advantage stasera, 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 Floresexperience 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,” Ha detto Herring.
The opening televised bout featured unbeaten prospect Alex Martin (12-0, 5 KO) sconfiggendo Rossemberth Gomez (17-5-1, 13 KO) con decisione unanime (80-72, 79-73, 79-73) in un concorso welter otto round.
Balestruccio, un 2012 Nazionale di Golden Gloves Champion, 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 stasera 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,” ha detto Martin.
Following the bout Gomez said, “I plan to retire after stasera. I care too much and fight too hard to be just another opponent.
The second televised fight saw Raynell Williams (11-0, 5 KO) win a unanimous decision (79-73, 79-73, 78-74) su Gabriel Tolmajyan (14-3-2, 3 KO) in eight rounds of lightweight action.
Un membro del 2008 U.S. Squadra olimpica, 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,” ha detto Williams.
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, COME, 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.
Tuttavia, 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 stasera. I got caught with a good punch in the last few seconds stasera, so I just need to work on consistency and fighting until the final bell.
