Melson to speak to Veterans Leadership Council in February at Johnson & Johnson Town Hall Meeting

 

New York,, NY (January 22, 2016) – WBC USNBC 154 pound champion Boyd “Rainmaker” Melson will serve as a special guest speaker for Johnson & Johnson during their Veterans Leadership Council Town Hall Meeting Thursday, February 18th in Raritan, New Jersey.

 

A 2003 West Point graduate, Melson was personally invited to speak by retired Army Colonel and current J&J employee Irving Smith, who was Melson’s Minority Admissions Representative and mentor when he applied to West Point as a teenager. In 18th, Melson will present to J&J employees who are part of J&J’s Veterans Leadership Council with respect to the topics of Traumatic Brain Injury and Spinal Cord Injury. A former standout salesman for J&J’s Ethicon Division, Melson’s success in and out of the ring is still closely monitored by J&J’s CEO and fellow West Point graduate Alex Gorsky.

 

“Johnson and Johnson will always exist within an independent aspect of my heart. I am overwhelmed with pride that the honor of speaking to J&J’s Veterans Leadership Council is now extended to me as I was once myself a Veteran working for J&J” said Melson.

 

Last week, Melson was honored at Johns Hopkins University as a military superstar. He was their guest of honor for their Men’s and Women’s basketball game, and upon personal request from the women’s basketball team’s coach, he delivered a pre-game inspirational talk to the ladies on that team.

 

In regard to J&J, Melson said it “it was a great place to work. They were extremely supportive of my boxing career and the mission of Team Fight to Walk. Many of J&J employees are loyal supporters that purchased tickets to see me fight. I am personally asking J&J CEO Alex Gorsky to attend this lecture on the 18th. It is very important to me that he learns how close we are towards receiving FDA Approval to conduct the clinical trial in the United States that Team Fight To Walk has worked the past 5.5 years to raise money for.”

Here is what the participants had to say at Thursday’s press conference at the Conga Room:
DANNY GARCIA
I want to thank Ruben Guerrero because he’s awakened the devil. Non possum exspectareSaturday night to show the world what Danny Garcia is all about. I feel fast, I feel strong and I’ll see everyone Saturday.
My dad and I are chilling right now, we’re business men. They set it off and they woke us up. That’s the last thing you want to do to us. I’m going to bring the heat. He never faced a guy like me. I’m sending a message.
I haven’t felt this way in a long time. It’s that feeling you get when you know you’re going to put on a great performance.
“Sentio magnus. I’m keeping my composure and staying focused. Saturday night will be another night of work for me.
I’m the type of fighter where I can be cool, but certain things bring out the anger in me. I don’t feel any pressure. I’m going to go in there and be Danny Garcia.
I’m going to make adjustments. I know he wants to get dirty but we have an answer for everything he has.
ANGELUS GARCIA, Danny pater & Instructus
“Danny magnum habebat castra. It was a beautiful camp. He looked great sparring. This is a new beginning in his life. There’s a new man in town.
There’s no doubt Robert’s coming to fight. This is boxing. He’s supposed to come to fight. I know he’s not going to come in here and play with Danny. We’re ready for anything he brings to the table.
We’re not going to let Robert take away what Danny has worked his whole life to get. I worked hard to make Danny the man he is today.
Danny is going to be the new champion of the world Saturday nox. After that we’re going after the other belts. Fight night is going to be about Danny and Robert.
Pellentesque
We’re really ready to go. We trained hard and did everything we had to do. There’s nothing left now but to do it.
I have to go out there and show my heart. Everything I put into this, I want to get even more out. I’m a hard worker and it will translate into the ring.
I’m excited to get to the fight and take care of business. As my dad says, ‘we’re ‘letting the roosters go.It’s time to fight.
I’m very grateful to be fighting on this show as the return of boxing is back on FOX. I’m ready to settle our business in the ring.
All the talking is done. He said he’s going to knock me outwell we’re going to see. I’m ready to represent the Mexican people and bring the fans a great, action-packed fight.
A title is on the line and I’m extremely motivated to silence the critics who are doubting me. I’m ready to become a champion once again
RUBEN GUERRERO, Robert’s Father & Instructus
I wish the fight was today, because we’re ready. Danny Garcia better be ready. It’s over. It’s time to fight. It’s going to be a bloody and rough fight. We’re bringing everything.
Same thing that happened to Andre Berto is going to happen to Danny. His dad better be ready to throw the towel in.
Vasquez SAMMY
This is going to be my first time fighting in L.A., and so far it’s been a blessing. Everyone has accepted me with open arms.
Training camp has gone amazingly well. I know Aron is going to bring it. He’s that type of fighter. He’s got a lot of heart, a lot of grit and he’s going to come at me. It’s going to be an incredible fight.
“Ad me, I’m supposed to be at the top with the top guys. I’m not like the guys that Aron Martinez has beat. I know he’s on a high right now and it’s my job to knock him off of it.
This is probably the biggest stage I’ve been on. Fighting in primetime is huge. The city has accepted me and I’m going to take that feeling into the ring Saturday nox.
Somebody is going to get stopped and I’m pretty confident in myself. Libenter exsequimur. I’m excited and I feel like I’m going to win. We’re going to do it.
Aron, Martínez
I’m just really happy to be here. I’m thankful for everyone who got me here. Everything has run smoothly and we’re feeling ready.
My team is calm and ready to go. This is where I grew up. What else can I ask for? I have a lot of people coming to support me and I’m excited.
It feels like I’ve been training for a whole year. I have no problem with the southpaws, I’ve been preparing for that in camp. We’re so focused and ready for this opportunity.
We respect each other. We’re here to do a job. I respect Sammy. He’s a veteran. But once you get in the ring, it’s a different story. Everything goes out the window. He’s a boxer and a good counter puncher. But we have a plan and there won’t be any excuses.
I’ve never been more ready than I am for this fight. I had a good training camp. My whole team has really gone above and beyond. Suus 'iens esse bellum. There’s nothing else to say.
DOMINIC BREAZEALE
I’ve been waiting to get into the ring for a long time. I’m chomping at the bit. I’m anxious to get in there.
This has been one of those camps. We had a fight in December. Charles Martin got away from me, but we’re going to get him back.
They say you can’t go from the football field to the boxing ring, but I’m doing it. Undefeated and going for another knockout.
That’s the first time I’ve seen him in person. He’s a midget compared to me. I don’t think he has any chance at all on Saturday nox. I’m looking for a great knockout.
Anytime you get a chance to fight on primetime TV is amazing. I fought on primetime during the Olympics and I’m looking forward to doing it here in front of my fans. If you’re not a fan of mine yet, you will be after Saturday.
I hope Amir Mansour had a great camp as well because I’m going to bring it. It’s going to be fireworks.
AMIR MANSOUR
I’d like to thank everyone who helped me get this opportunity. PBC is doing a great thing with boxing and this is going to be another great fight.
I’ve been winning fights, knocking guys out. We’ve all had trials and tribulations, I certainly have. But I’m a real fighter and a true fighter. I love the sport of boxing and I dedicate myself to the things that have gotten me here.
Saturday I’m going to go in there and do my thing. You can’t come from a football field into the ring with me. It’s not going to work for you. I’m not going to allow it. I have a history of putting everything on the line in that ring and Saturday will be no different.
TOM BROWN, Praeses TGB Promotions
This fight is about finding out who the best is. All great fighters want the opportunity to be in a fight like this.
The show is headlined by one of the most exciting undefeated boxers, Garcia danny, against a former world champion in Robert Guerrero. We know for sure that this is going to be a battle of two great warriors. Both men are going to bring everything they’ve got to this fight.
DAVID NATHANSON, Head of Business Operations for FOX Sports
This will be first of many events we will be doing with PBC on the FOX Network this year. It’s the first of some great things to come. Thanks to PBC for being such great partners and we’re thrilled to bring this fight into every home in America.

The fighters worked out with their trainers at City of Angels Boxing gym in Los Angeles. Hinc est quod dicere participantes Wednesday:
DANNY GARCIA
This is another fight that is going to make me a bigger star. Talis sicut Saturday nox, I will be at my best.
I’ve had 31 professionalem pugnat. A lot of them have been big fights. This is another fight to me. There’s nothing you can say that gets to me.
I feel like I represent all the Latino people. Not just Puerto Rican-Americans or Mexican-Americans. I’m excited to go out there and show everybody a great fight.
I’m not the kind of person that talks a lot. I like to speak with my left hand and my right hand.
“In fine diei,, all the fans want to see is good fights and they’ll appreciate that.
I always go for the knockout, but we’re ready for a war.
“Ne ponatis me premat. I just go in there and take it one fight at a time. I’m not thinking about my record when I step in the ring, I just want to get the job done round-by-round.
ANGELUS GARCIA, Danny pater & Instructus
We left 140-pound as the champ and now we’re looking to do the same at 147. When you come to fight Danny Garcia for a title, you better come 100 percent parati.
We know Guerrero is going to be ready and we know what he brings to the table. We have an answer for everything he’s got.
January 23, it’s going to be for all Latinos in L.A. and all of America. Danny is going to be the welterweight world champion.
Pellentesque
Having the world title on the line just adds fuel to the fire. We’ll find out Saturday night how it all plays out.
We’ve been training hard. We derailed off the tracks a bit, but we went back to square one in camp, back to what got me here in the first place. We put it back together.
Going up against an undefeated fighter adds motivation to my drive. I want to defeat the undefeated guy, especially with this opportunity. I want to raise everybody’s eyebrows.
We’re not going to let the fans down. If the opponent doesn’t come to fight, Volo. That’s just the way I am. Whenever somebody watches me it’s always exciting.
RUBEN GUERRERO, Robert’s Father & Instructus
We’re going to show the world. We’re warriors. We come to fight. The fans are going to love this fight.
It all depends on if Danny comes to fight. I’ll give him credit if he does. They’re going to find out where Robert is at after this fight.
Robert is a full-fledged welterweight. We’re coming in light and ready to go.
I don’t get heated. I’ve been there before. I just say it as it is. Whatever comes out of my mouth comes out. They better be ready, because we’re ready. Angel Garcia better be ready to throw in that towel, because Danny is going to take a beating.
Vasquez SAMMY
My time in the military helped turn me into a man. I joined at a young age and it’s made me the person I am today. Boxing in front of thousands of people is an honor and I’m going to enjoy it.
We’re here to take care of business come Saturday nox. Hopefully I can keep fighting people above me in the rankings. This is a great stepping-stone for me. Eventually we want one of these guys in the main event.
Boxing died out in Pittsburgh a little bit until Paul Spadafora brought it back a little bit. I’m trying to be the next one. I’m a fun guy to follow for a lot of reasons and I just want to make myself known.
I made it through two tours all in one piece and there are a lot of people who weren’t as lucky. To be able to give anything back is truly special.
We have to shine on Saturday nox. This is our chance to show that we belong. Being able to stop Aron Martinez would put me on a bigger stage.
I don’t know where I’ll be at on the welterweight scale if I get this win. But I’d love to fight either Danny Garcia or Robert Guerrero. Time will tell. I intend to fight for a world title by the end of the year.
Aron, Martínez
Every fight gets harder and harder. We’ve had a great training camp and we’re ready to brawl. Expect a good fight on Saturday night and expect some fireworks.
I thought I won the fight with, Robert Guerrero but it’s boxing. You have to move on and use it as motivation the next time you’re out there.
This is my backyard. I started my career here and it’s a great opportunity for people to get to see me. I want to put on a great show.
Vasquez is like any other fighter. Only thing special is that he’s undefeated. He doesn’t want to lose that but nothing worries me about him. This will be tougher than my last two fights, but we’re ready.
I think we’re going to steal the show. Hes invictam, a southpaw and he definitely doesn’t want to lose. It’s my hometown though, so I’m going to put up a good fight and make it a war.
DOMINIC BREAZEALE
It’s been a great training camp. My trainer, Manny Robles, has done a great job. He’s worked on helping me establish my jab and got me ready for a very tough fight.
I talked to Gerald Washington myself and he said he let it slip away in his fight against Mansour. The first four rounds he was really controlling the range. It’s definitely something that I’ve been studying.
“In divisione heavyweight, everyone can throw punches. Anyone who believes I’m not tough enough will be proven wrong Saturday. Mansour is a really experienced guy and I’d like to knock him out and put on an exhibition.
I’ve got the age on him and I’ve got some height and weight. I have a great pedigree and he has the pro experience. He’s been in a lot more rounds than I have but I’ve been in a lot of tough fights.
My heart is definitely set on Charles Martin after this fight. After pulling out of the fight and everything that happened there, that’s on my mind after this fight.
Mansour is a big, aggressive guy so we’re ready for anything he can bring. My athletic background will help me as will my mind because it’s all about making adjustment in the ring.
You’re not going to see me hanging out on the ropes because I’m going to move around the ring. My skills will be the difference.
“Suus 'somnium adveho verus est pugnare STAPLES Center. I’m so close to family and friends. It’s going to be a livelier fight week than I’ve been in before.
I always try to turn it up around the third round. I never look for the knockout, but I’ll turn it up and try to hurt him.
AMIR MANSOUR
I let my trainers watch the opponent, they give me the game plan and I take it from there.
“Illic 'non pressura. I know how to transform everything that we do in the gym into the ring and block out all the pressure.
My team knows a lot about Dominic. My team has helped me get prepared for what I need to do to get this victory.
I can’t sit here and say I’m not nervous, everyone is nervous before fight day. You have to embrace that and overcome that. This is my dream, this is where I want to be and this is my moment.
