Los Angeles, SEPERTI (Bulan Maret 19, 2021) -This Saturday night, one of the top prospects in boxing will be back in action at the Miami Airport Hilton in Miami, Florida as undefeated featherweight Jalen Walker takes on grizzled veteran Julian Aristule in a bout scheduled for six-rounds. Walker of Los Angeles is 7-0 with six knockouts and is looking to add his most experienced foe to his resume.
After a successful amateur career that saw him amass a record of 108-13, and was a three-time National PAL champion; Two-Time Silver Medal winner in the Junior Olympics; Time-Time Silver Medal winner in the Adidas Nationals among his endless accolades. Walker turned professional at the age of 17.
Walker won his first six bouts in Tijuana, Mexico before winning his American debut, which was a unanimous decision over Diuhl Olguin. “I am ready to put on a show. I have put in a lot of hard work for this fight. I have seen a little bit of Aristule. I do not look at too much of my opponents, I let my team do that, but what I have seen is that he is on his way out,” kata Walker.
Aristule of Argentina has had a successful career by amassing a record of 34-14 dengan 17 KO, and is a former WBO Latino Super Bantamweight champion. He defeated two undefeated fighters, and has wins over several more quality opponents.
The ambitious Walker kept in good shape during the Coronavirus lockdown, and was ready for action when he took on Olguin last December 20th.
“Aku tidak pernah berhenti pelatihan. I stayed in shape, and continued to run and spar,” continued Walker.
Walker, who started boxing at age seven as he followed in the footsteps of his father Norman and grandfather, who were both amateur boxers. Walker is one of the most followed boxers on social media as he boasts over137,000 followers on Instagramknows that platforms like that are very important in today’s world of sports and entertainment.
“I think the key to that is consistency. When I first started getting 1,000 views or so, I thought it was a big deal. Saya memiliki tentang 6,000 followers before my pro debut, and it has continued to grow. When I start to fight on bigger cards, I can see that even skyrocketing. There are many world champions that don’t get nearly the views that I get. I am just waiting patiently, and when everything happens, things will click perfectly, It is going to be big.”
Walker has gained valuable experience sparring with several world champions such as Danny Roman, Malaikat Acosta, Joseph Diaz Jr. and Murodjon Akhmadaliev .
Jalen is on the cusp of signing with a major promoter, and he knows that he brings a lot to the table both in and out of the ring. “I bring what I can do as a fighter, but also with social media, that even helps promote their events when I am fighting. I am the total package Walker is managed by Waterfront Boxing, which is headed up by the duo of Rene Symonds and Clement Kwan.
The pair see a huge future for Walker.
“Our job as managers to a top talent like Jalen is to build a foundation for him to showcase his talents, flourish as a brand and to develop as a young man,” said Kwan.
Symonds added, “Jalen is an incredibly exciting fighter who eats, tidur dan bernafas tinju. We’re incredibly proud of how active he has been during the pandemic – with five outings last year. This bout against a 48-fight veteran is another step towards fulfilling his destiny”

Saya ingin bergerak dan menunjukkan beberapa sudut lagi, tapi dia terus langsung masuk, jadi dia ada di sana,” kata McCaskill.

Tijuana’s Fierro (18-1-1, 14 Biaya) handed Machado (22-3, 18 Biaya) of Rio Piedras his first professional loss in Puerto Rico, following a hot start from the former junior lightweight world champion. Machado, 30, scored a knockdown in each of the first two rounds with well-placed right-hand counter punches. Fierro displayed a durable chin and beat the count easily both times, signaling that he was not hurt by the crunching power punches. Fierro was down 48-45 on all three judges’ scorecards at the time of the stoppage.
“I’m happy, I faced a top-notch fighter tonight in Alberto Machado,” said Fierro, who was a three-to-one underdog. “He is world class and dropped me twice. But I am ecstatic that I was able to come back and beat a fighter of his caliber.”
The 22-year-old lightweight turned the fight around in the fourth round as he dedicated himself to a vicious body attack against Machado. The body work paid dividends as he found openings throughout the fifth and sixth round, ultimately leading to a vicious left hand that sent the former titlist to the canvas for the first and only time in the fight. Fierro credited finding his second wind to his two-year-old daughter back in Mexico.
“He dropped me twice in the beginning of the fight,” added Fierro. “When I got back to my corner, I told them, ‘remind me of my daughter.’ Because with this fight I can change her life and that’s exactly what they did after the third round. They motivated me and that’s exactly what I did.”
Sebelum pertarungan, Fierro told the Ring City USA broadcast team, “the best judge is a knockout when you’re fighting in someone else’s hometown.” The Mexican warrior, who replaced undefeated prospect Hector Tanajara on one week’s notice, delivered on his promise to take matters into his own hands.
“We found a lot of gaps in Machado’s game in the sixth round,” stated Fierro. “I took advantage of them and I turned it around. I told you in the interview (sebelum pertarungan), I didn’t come here to be a tourist in Puerto Rico. I came here to win.”
Immediately preceding the main event, IrlandiaJoe Ward (3-1, 2 Biaya) avenged his only professional loss with a dominating unanimous decision victory overMarco Delgado(7-2, 5 Biaya) in their six-round light heavyweight tilt.

Two of the ringside judges scored seven rounds for Ibarra (79-73) while the third saw it 77-75 for the winner. Ibarra, who hails from Monterrey, Meksiko, brought the fight to the Los Angeles native throughout the fight and was the far busier fighter.
“Now the world knows who Alma Ibarra is and what she is made of,” said the victor. “To everyone, I was a stranger. And to fight against someone who is very recognized worldwide in Maricela Cornejo and beat her, this opened many doors for us.”
Ibarra, 32, returned from a 16-month layoff following her first professional defeat against Raquel Miller in 2019. Ibarra, who had a successful amateur career, looked comfortable as she commanded the ring against the seasoned professional in 33-year-old Cornejo. Ibarra, a natural welterweight, was fighting at the heaviest weight of her career (156 lbs.).
“I felt very good, sangat kuat, as this is a division that I am not used to,” said Ibarra. “I always fight in lower divisions, we had to go up two divisions to take this great opportunity, and well, I think we were not wrong to take this risk.”

“I felt his punches, but I was the superior fighter tonight,"Kata Gonzalez. “He might have won three rounds but it’s OK. I’m thankful to Puerto Rico and all of the people that gave me an opportunity to be here.”
The 28-year-old Martinez did his best work on the inside as he attempted to neutralize the five-inch reach advantage of the younger Gonzalez and led on two of the scorecards through the midway point of the fight. Sementara Itu, Gonzalez flashed excellent hand speed in the back-and-forth affair and stole many of the later rounds when he found his second wind. This marked the third draw for Martinez over his last seven fights and the first for Gonzalez.
“I feel happy, satisfied with the work I did,” said Martinez. “I understand that I was fighting against a strong opponent and that I won. I pushed more. I was on top of him, but these things happen in boxing. Now it’s a matter of continuing to train, maintain myself and seek that title opportunity.”

BINTANG TAK TERKALAHKAN MENGUTIP JUNI DI LAS VEGAS UNTUK DEBUT MMA nya; MENYEBUT KATIE TAYLOR DAN SAVANNAH MARSHALL DALAM WAWANCARA PASCA-FIGHT (Hari Jumat, Bulan Maret 5, 2021 – Flint, MY) Superstar wanita Claressa Shields melanjutkan klaimnya sebagai "GWOAT" tinju pada Jumat malam dan menjadi WBC yang bersatu, WBO, IBF & Juara Dunia Kelas Menengah Super Junior WBA, dengan mencetak keputusan bulat 10 ronde satu sisi atas Marie-Eve Dicaire dari St-Eustache, Quebec, Kanada, dalam acara utama 10 putaran dari all-women bersejarah "WANITA SUPER: PERISAI VS. DICARE acara di Dort Financial Center dan langsung bayar per tayang di kampung halaman Shields di Flint, Michigan. Shields (11-0, 2 Biaya) juga menjadi petinju pertama di era empat sabuk yang menjadi juara dunia yang tak terbantahkan dalam dua divisi berat berdasarkan kemenangan shutout-nya (100-90 oleh ketiga juri) atas sekarang mantan juara Dicaire (17-1).
Tidak seperti biasanya, Shields yang berusia 25 tahun berubah menjadi counterpuncher di awal pertarungan ini, untuk mengimbangi upaya Dicaire untuk memantul masuk dan keluar dari jangkauan. Mengandalkan refleksnya untuk menghukum segala upaya agresi oleh Dicaire, Shields menutup pemain Kanada itu dan kemudian kembali ke serangan biasa ke depan dalam pertarungan.
Dicaire mendaratkan kidal berkualitas yang tersisa di Shields di ronde keempat, mungkin satu-satunya pukulan signifikan dari pertarungan, dan Shields mengabaikannya tanpa efek.
Saya tidak bisa marah tentang penampilan saya,” kata Shields setelah pertarungan. “Dia terus menyikut dan menandukku. Saya mencoba untuk KO dan saya hampir mendapatkannya beberapa kali, tapi kami punya waktu dua menit dan wasit tidak menghentikannya ketika dia memegang saya dan menyikut saya. Saya senang tetapi saya masih menginginkan KO. Saya hanya tidak punya cukup waktu. Pada akhir hari, Saya adalah juara baru yang tak terbantahkan di 154 dan petinju pertama yang menjadi juara tak terbantahkan dua kali.”
Shields mengatakan dia senang telah menyelesaikan bagian sejarah terbarunya di depan keluarga dan teman-temannya di Flint, bahkan jika pandemi berarti lebih sedikit penggemar yang hadir.
“Dengan Covid, kami tidak dapat memiliki kapasitas penuh. Ada 300 di sini dan itulah kapasitas hari ini, jadi kita punya rumah penuh. Kami tidak dapat memiliki kapasitas penuh, tapi aku tahu jika kita bisa, kami akan memilikinya 6000 orang di sini. Saya senang bisa melakukannya di sini (di Flint). Saya mulai bertinju di Berston Fieldhouse di 11 tua tahun. Tidak pernah dalam sejuta tahun saya pikir saya akan berada di bayar-per-tayang dan berjuang untuk gelar yang tak terbantahkan dan menjadi salah satu bintang terbesar dalam tinju. Saya hanya ingin memenangkan medali Emas Olimpiade. Tuhan telah memberi saya dua medali Olimpiade. Saya sudah 12 sabuk juara sekarang. Rasanya tidak nyata untuk mengatakan tak terbantahkan dua kali.”
Ketika ditanya tentang dua saingannya yang tersisa di tinju, sesama superstar Katie Taylor dari Irlandia dan penakluk satu kali di amatir, Savannah Marshall dari Inggris, Perisai yang dipenuhi dengan kepercayaan diri.
“Katie Taylor tidak perlu khawatir. 147 pound adalah. Mereka harus membayar saya banyak untuk kehilangan pantat saya dan pergi ke 147. Pada akhir hari, Aku seorang wanita. Saya tidak memiliki payudara besar, tapi aku punya pantat yang bagus, jadi datanglah dengan adonan itu dan saya akan berada di sana. Setidaknya satu juta dan saya akan berada di sana.
“Savannah Marshall tidak bisa bercinta denganku. Mari kita tetap nyata. Savannah Marshall, Anda memenangkan keputusan yang beruntung ketika kami masih kecil. Juga London menjadi tuan rumah Olimpiade. Jika Anda ingin menyombongkan diri tentang mengalahkan saya 14 poin ke 8… ayo sekarang. Dan kemudian saya menjadi juara dunia di tiga divisi berbeda dan dia bangkrut. Dia tahu dia tidak bisa dan tidak akan pernah bisa bercinta denganku. Dia bisa datang ke Amerika. Saya akan pergi ke Inggris. Kita bisa pergi ke Meksiko. Kita bisa pergi kemana saja, dan aku akan bercinta dengannya. Dia tahu itu. Dia takut padaku. Savannah Marshall bisa mendapatkannya. Beritahu Eddie Hearn, dia datang 250K. Katakan padanya untuk datang dengan 500K… 750K jika dia ingin aku pergi ke Inggris dan merokok gadisnya. Bayar aku.”
Dicaire melanjutkan keanggunannya dalam interogasi pasca-pertarungan dan berjanji untuk tidak membiarkan kekalahan itu mengurangi masa depannya dalam olahraga..
“Saya pikir Claressa melakukan pekerjaan dengan baik malam ini,”Kata Dicaire. "Malam ini, dia yang terbaik. Terkadang Anda menang dan terkadang Anda belajar. Malam Ini, aku telah belajar. Saya pikir ini hanya akan membuat saya tumbuh lebih kuat. Saya tidak bertinju untuk melindungi catatan saya atau menyimpan catatan saya di 0 kerugian. Saya bertinju untuk mengalahkan juara. Malam Ini, Saya memiliki kesempatan untuk melawan juara sejati. Dia menang kali ini tetapi mengandalkan saya untuk kembali ke gym dan bekerja keras dan menjadi juara dunia lagi pasti.
Shields, yang mengatakan debut MMA-nya yang banyak dipublikasikan kemungkinan akan diadakan di Las Vegas pada bulan Juni, melempar 409 pukulan dalam pertarungan dan mendarat 128 termasuk di dalamnya 34.9% dari pukulan kekuatannya. Dicaire melempar 263 pukulan sebagai balasannya tetapi mendarat dengan adil 31.
“Flint Michigan mendapat petinju paling buruk di dunia!” kata Shields kepada para penggemarnya. “Kami dua kali tak terbantahkan. Pacquiao siapa?? Canelo siapa?? Ketika orang lain melakukan apa yang saya lakukan, beri tahu saya.”
Dalam acara co-utama malam itu, Houston tak terkalahkan Danielle Perkins (3-0, 1 KO) menunjukkan peningkatan yang nyata dan memiliki waktu yang jauh lebih mudah dalam pertandingan ulangnya melawan Georgia Monica “Lay Em Down” Harrison (2-2, 1 KO), mencetak keputusan bulat delapan ronde yang dominan saat mengambil Kejuaraan Kelas Berat Perak WBC dalam prosesnya.
Mantan juara dunia amatir Perkins menggunakan setiap bagian dari atletisnya yang superior, 6' tinggi dan jangkauan 72-inci untuk bergerak di sekitar ring dan menjaga 5' 10" Harrison di teluk dengan pukulan kanan kidal yang menghukum dan diet yang stabil dari tangan kiri yang kuat ke kepala dan tubuh. Kadang-kadang, Wasit Michael Griffin tampaknya mempertimbangkan penghentian, tetapi Harrison yang tahan lama terus maju dan berayun ke pagar selama delapan putaran, meskipun kekuatan senjata datang padanya.
Skor yang 80-72 dari ketiga hakim.
“Saya minta maaf karena tidak mendapatkan KO. Saya bersumpah lain kali saya akan kembali dan memberikannya kepada Anda, Batu api,” kata Perkins, pasca-pertarungan. “Monika membuat beberapa penyesuaian kali ini. Saya memukulnya dengan beberapa palu kuat dan gadis itu tetap berdiri, jadi pujian untuknya.”
Perkins melempar 353 pukulan dalam pertarungan dan mendarat 121 termasuk di dalamnya 40.9% dari tembakan kekuatannya. Harrison melempar 273 tembakan, tetapi hanya menemukan rumah untuk 21 dari mereka.
“Saya ingin menjadi juara dunia kelas berat wanita yang tak terbantahkan,” lanjut Perkins. "Aku ingin menjadi yang terbaik yang pernah kamu lihat."
Kelas bantam tak terkalahkan Jamie "Keajaiban" Mitchell (6-0-2, 43 Biaya) dari Pacific Grove, California, tampak mengesankan dalam memukul dan menghentikan veteran yang lebih berpengalaman Noemi "La Rebelde / Tidak-Tidak ”Hutan (12-16-3, 2 Biaya) dalam lima putaran satu sisi. Dengan hukuman dua tangan dari Mitchell yang terus meningkat setiap putaran yang lewat, Wasit Gerard White memutuskan bahwa Bosques yang tersandung dan mundur sudah cukup dan dengan senang hati melambaikan pertarungan di 1:49 dari yang kelima.
“Aku baru saja dikategorikan keluar. Saya melakukan apa pun yang sesuai saat ini,” kata Mitchell, pasca-pertarungan. “Begitulah cara saya mendapatkan KO. Terima kasih kepada pelatih saya dan terima kasih kepada Claressa Shields karena telah menempatkan saya di kartu ini. Ini adalah momen yang tak terlupakan bagi wanita.”
Sebelum mencetak technical knockout, Mitchell mendarat 48% (80/167) dari pukulan kekuatannya, dan 40% (94/234) dari total pukulannya. Noemi Bosques hanya mendarat 24 dari 153 pukulan.
“Saya suka memilih diri sendiri untuk melakukan yang lebih baik,” kata Mitchell tentang penampilannya. “Ada hal-hal tertentu yang ingin saya lakukan, tapi mereka tidak menyebut gadis ini penjaga gerbang tanpa alasan. Saya berharap saya mengeluarkannya dari sana lebih cepat dan lebih tajam dengan jab saya. Dia agak rumit.”
Dalam pertarungan pembukaan siaran, 2012 Peraih medali perunggu Olimpiade Marlen esparza(9-1, 1 KO) tetap sibuk menjelang tantangan yang dijadwalkan dari Juara Kelas Terbang WBC Ibeth Zamora pada bulan April dengan keputusan bulat enam ronde yang dominan atas KanadaShelly Barnett (saat ini 4-4-2, 2 KO).
Barnett mencoba menjadi agresif, tetapi keterampilan Esparza memungkinkannya untuk menembak lawannya yang lebih besar, hampir sesuka hati, terutama saat pertarungan berlangsung. “Kami tahu dia tangguh dan lebih besar,” kata Esparza. “Saya menginginkan seseorang yang lebih berat karena saya tidak pernah bertarung di atas 112 lbs. dan saya pikir saya menanganinya dengan baik. Saya senang dengan cara semuanya dimainkan. Saya senang menjadi bagian dari acara ini dan bisa bekerja sama dengan Claressa lagi.”
