RICHARDSON HITCHINS E NICK DELOMBA DISCUISCONO IL CAMPO DI FORMAZIONE PRIMA DEL MATCHUP SUPER LEGGERO SU SHOBOX: IL VENERDÌ DI NUOVA GENERAZIONE, Febbraio 28 LIVE ON Showtime

Fare clic QUI per le foto da Promozioni Mayweather



LAS VEGAS – Febbraio 12, 2020 – Fast-rising super lightweight prospects Richardson Hitchins (10-0, 5 KO) e Nick DeLomba(16-2, 5 KO) open up about training camp ahead of their ShoBox: La nuova generazione co-featured bout Friday, Febbraio 28 in diretta su Showtime (10:45 p.m. ET / PT) from Sam’s Town Live in Las Vegas.



Nel ShoBox evento principale, unbeaten Mayweather Promotions’ prospect Malik Hawkins (18-0, 11 KO) will return for his second appearance on SHOWTIME as he goes toe-to-toe with undefeated Vegas native Keith Hunter (11-0, 7 KO) in un 10 round attacco super leggero. The opening bout of the telecast will see Kevin “The Second Coming” Newman (11-1-1, 6 KO) against an opponent to be announced in a 10-round super middleweight bout. The previously announced opponent, Kalvin Henderson, has withdrawn from the fight due to an injury.



Tickets for the Mayweather Promotions’ Sin City Showdown start at $25 e può essere acquistato presso: https://mayweatherpromotions.com/events/.



Hitchins, di Brooklyn, N.Y., returns for his second consecutive test on the prospect developmental series. Nella sua ultima uscita, he earned a unanimous decision over Kevin Johnson at Sam’s Town. Hitchins, a 22-year-old 2016 Haitian Olympian, has gained notoriety for having the skillset of a veteran with a gritty and slick style inside the ring. Hitchins has credited some of his boxing development to advice and pointers he has gotten from world champion Daniel Jacobs and Shakur Stevenson, and stablemate Gervonta Davis.



“Nice” DeLomba, fighting out of Cranston, R.I., is coming off a five-fight win streak with three out of five wins by knockout. He’s best known for his slickness and elusiveness in the ring and looks to make a powerful statement in foreign territory as he makes his Las Vegas and ShoBox debutti.



Here is what Hitchins and DeLomba had to say ahead of the February 28 match-up:



How has training camp been going in preparation for February 28?



Hitchins: “Camp is good, but I’m always in camp. There’s never a time when I’m not preparing and perfecting my craft, I’m really a student of the game. I know that I’m approaching that next level in my career, so I have to stay sharp and in the gym to perform at that next level.



“I’m headed to Colorado to finish training camp. It’s where the Olympic training center is, and it’s a place I’ve gone a couple of times to finish my camp. The air is better up there and that really helps me to get in better shape going into the fight.”



DeLomba: “Training camp is going wonderful. I’m getting everything I need to prepare for the fight: nutrizione, meal plans, and strength and conditioning. I’ve added a new strength and conditioning coach and I’ve tweaked things to adjust to Hitchins’ style. I’m ready to go and I can’t wait for fight night.”



What is your game plan going into this fight?



Hitchins: "My game plan is the same for every fight. Stay composed and be the first to strike. I’m at a point in my career where the competition is getting tougher so the main thing for me is keeping my defense tight. My defense will keep me in good shape during the fights as the competition gets steep. But overall, I always have the mindset that I’m the better, smarter, and faster fighter.



“I surround myself with champions. That’s the only way to become one and this fight gets me one step closer.”



DeLomba: “I plan to go in and fight smart; stick to the game plan my team has for me and execute it well. My goal is to overcome whatever he tries to throw at me.”



What do you know about your opponent?



Hitchins: “I don’t know much. He’s who my team picked for me so I’m just going to get the job done and take him out. Nella notte di lotta, I’ll have a clearer idea of how to get him out. I can adjust to anything.”



DeLomba: “I know my opponent has quick hands and likes to throw speedy shots. I’m completely focused on myself and my training. I believe in my abilities as a fighter. I’m not intimidated.”



What will a victory on February 28th do for your career going forward?



Hitchins: “Another win carries me to that next level. Ho fame, I come from nothing, so I stay with a chip on my shoulder. I’m appreciative of my team, Promozioni Mayweather, and to SHOWTIME for providing me with this opportunity to build my name in the sport and show the world what I can do.”



DeLomba: “A win over Hitchins will catapult me to that next level. It’s a televised bout and this will bring me the exposure I need to branch out and expose myself to a new audience. It will improve my career tremendously.”

Il celebre manager Jackie Kallen prevede che l'imbattuta Mykquan Williams sarà il suo sesto campione del mondo

MANCHESTER, Conn. (Febbraio 12, 2020) - Pioniere delle donneJackie Kallen, il primo e probabilmente il manager femminile di maggior successo nella storia della boxe, crede fermamente che il 21enne sia imbattuto"Meraviglioso" Mykquan Williams (15-0-1, 7 KO) diventerà il suo sesto campione del mondo.

Williams, combattendo da East Hartford, CT, è il regno del World Boxing Council (WBC) Campione super leggero degli Stati Uniti.

"Mykey ha molte qualità come alcuni dei grandi della boxe,"Ha detto Kallen. "Ha un po 'del flash e della velocità dei combattenti come Ray Leonard, e le abitudini di formazione e la dedizione di Thomas Hearns e Mike Tyson. Ha anche un sorriso assassino e un bell'aspetto Hector Camacho, Sr.

“Mykey può arrivare fino a un titolo mondiale. Ha la velocità, atteggiamento, e cuore, insieme a un'eccezionale capacità di boxe. È stato curato perfettamente dal suo allenatore, Paul Cichon, che ha mantenuto Mykey fedele al suo stile, lavorando duro per perfezionare la sua abilità. Mykey si allena duramente, mangia bene, e prende sul serio il gioco. "

"Jackie è molto esperta e ben informata nel pugilato,"Ha osservato Williams. "Ha lavorato con alcune persone fantastiche, combattenti di livello mondiale, quindi conosce la strada da prendere per me per arrivarci ".

Cichon ha aggiunto, “Ho cercato Jackie come nostro manager per il suo amore per lo sport, così come la consapevolezza di ciò che porta in tavola. È molto rispettata, come certamente merita di essere. "

La boxe è cambiata radicalmente da quando Kallen ha coperto la sua prima battaglia per un quotidiano di Detroit nel 1978. La scheda mostrava Hearns eMickey Goodwin.  È diventata subito una fan e scriveva regolarmente di boxe. Un leggendario allenatore / manager con sede a Detroit, Emanuel Steward, l'ha assunta come pubblicista per la sua famosa palestra Kronk. Alcuni dei suoi migliori amici fino ad oggi sono combattenti con cui lavorava allora. Lei e Hearns stanno ancora insieme.

Dopo aver servito come pubblicista di Kronk per un decennio, Kallen ha deciso di espandersi e ha iniziato a gestire i combattenti. Il suo primo cliente era dei pesi massimiBobby Hitz, che oggi è un promotore e ristoratore di successo a Chicago. Ha continuato a gestire un gruppo di combattenti Who's Who, compresi i campioni del mondoJames ToneyBronco McKartTom "Boom Boom" JohnsonThomas Pinklon eNonito Donaire.

Kallen, che ha vinto il sessismo nell'industria della boxe, è meglio conosciuto, forse, per il suo rapporto di lavoro con Toney, soprattutto perché la sua vita in quel periodo è stata l'ispirazione per il popolare 2004 film, Contro le corde, protagonistaMeg Ryan come Kallen.

“La boxe oggi è un animale completamente diverso," lei spiegò. "Questo non vuol dire che sia meglio o peggio, solo diverso. C'erano più palestre in ogni città, programmi amatoriali pesanti, molti spettacoli sulle reti televisive, e abbastanza spettacoli di club locali per mantenere attivo un giovane combattente. Allora avevo ragazzi che combattevano 8 a 10 volte all'anno, la quale, naturalmente, è quasi impossibile in 2020.

"Non c'erano nemmeno tante informazioni disponibili sugli avversari. Se sei stato fortunato, potresti comprare un nastro. Se il combattente non fosse stato in televisione, anche se, sei stato sfortunato. Non c'era Internet, quindi non c'era niente come BoxRec per controllare i record degli avversari. Dovevi solo credere al sensale. Avevo combattenti che si aspettavano di combattere a 14-4 ragazzo che ha scoperto alla pesatura che in realtà era 16-0. "

Boxe, probabilmente la seconda professione più antica, ha continuato a sopravvivere, anche se spesso su un giro sulle montagne russe.

"I combattenti di oggi non sono veloci a combattersi l'un l'altro come ai tempi di Hearns / Hagler / Leonard / Duran,"Ha osservato Kallen. “Allora, i combattenti volevano davvero combattere per essere il meglio che potevano essere. Vedo i combattenti oggi essere più analitici e correre meno rischi.

“Oggi ci sono anche più organizzazioni sanzionatorie. Allora era soprattutto la WBA, WBC e IBF. Per non parlare che non c'è mai stata una persona che gestisse dozzine e dozzine di pugili contemporaneamente. Il gioco è decisamente cambiato!"

Kallen, anche se è ancora fortemente investita nello sport che ama. La fiduciosa Williams sarà il suo prossimo campione del mondo, il suo sogno è entrare nella Hall of Fame con Toney.

"Nel 1992,” Ha concluso Kallen, "Sono stato nominato" Manager dell'anno "e il mio amore per lo sport non è mai tramontato. Finché c'è talento là fuori che ha bisogno di una guida, Rimarrò attivo. "

No place like home for Undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz

WORCESTER, Massa. (Febbraio 11, 2020) – A lifelong dream will become finally reality on February 28th, when undefeated World Boxing Council (WBC) Youth World lightweight championJamaine "The Technician" Ortiz (12-0, 6 KO) fights at home for the first time as a professional in Worcester, Massachusetts.

Ortiz will headline aCES Boxing on UFC FIGHT PASS® evento, promoted by Classic Entertainment and Sports (CES), at the historic Worcester Palladium. His opponent in the 8-round main event will be Mexican knockout artist“Loco” Luis Ronaldo Castillo (22-5, 17 KO), a former WBC FECOMBOX lightweight champion.

“I’ve never fought in Worcester as a professional,” Ortiz said at a recent press conference. “I’ve wanted to do this bad to let people in Worcester see what it has. It’s going to be extra special because two of my closest friendsIrvin Gonzalez eKendrick Ball, Jr., are also fighting on this card. We’ve fought together since we were kids.”

The 23-year-old will not be defending his WBC Youth World title, because he will relinquish his belt in April, when turns 24 and becomes ineligible in terms of the age requirement (23 e più giovane).

“Jamaine had one of the most prestigious amateur careers ever in New England,” Ortiz’ promoterJimmy Burchfield (CES Boxing) said. “He already owns the WBC World Youth title and has World Champion written all over him.”

“The Technician” is fine tuning his game and he’s already looking ahead to the not too distant future.

“I’m very excited to be fighting February 28th for the first time in Worcester,” Ortiz added. “It’s an exciting card with action-packed fights. I expect it’ll be sold out and hope so, because I want to prove to my city, il mio promotore, and local businesses that big-time boxing belongs here and will be supported by Worcester. In 2021, I want to bring world championship boxing to the new baseball stadium (Polar Park, the future home of the Worcester Red Sox, Triple A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox) across the street that will seat 10,000.”

The Feb. 28th show showcasing Ortiz worldwide will be streamed live and exclusively on UFC FIGHT PASS®, servizio digitale leader a livello mondiale di sottoscrizione per gli sport da combattimento, a partire da 9 p.m. E / 6 p.m. PT.

Nery (30-0, 24 KO) is a power puncher who has stopped his last 11 opponents and 15 del suo ultimo 16. The 25-year-old southpaw from Tijuana, Mexico scored a dominant stoppage victory over former champion McJoe Arroyo in March and returned in July to stop former champion Juan Carlos Payano.

“I’m very excited to be making my SHOWTIME debut in the main event against a great fighter,” said Alameda. “All of the years of training and fighting have brought me to this fight on March 28. Nery is a Mexican warrior like myself and I can’t wait to lock horns with him and give the fans great action all the way until the final bell.”

Il 29enne Wallin (20-1, 13 KO) will return to the ring in Las Vegas, where he nearly defeated former unified heavyweight champion Tyson Fury in September, when he opened up a gruesome cut over Fury’s right eye with a legal punch that nearly halted the fight. While Wallin dropped the decision, he proved his mettle as a potential future heavyweight champion. Representing his native Sundsvall, Svezia, Wallin trains in New York with former champion Joey Gamache. Wallin’s last fight in Las Vegas was his second in the U.S., after his debut on SHOWTIME in April ended in a no contest because of a cut suffered by his opponent in the first round.

Fighting out of New South Wales, Australia, Browne (29-2, 25 KO) most recently scored a knockout victory over John Hopoate in November, his second win of 2019. He’s won four of his last five bouts, with his only career losses coming to Dillian Whyte and David Allen in the U.K. Browne won his first 25 lotte pro, including a stoppage of Ruslan Chagaev in 2016 to capture a WBA Heavyweight Championship. He will be making his U.S. debutto.

George (10-0, 6 KO) emerged victorious in a battle of then unbeaten fighters when he faced Escudero on SHOWTIME in November, taking a split-decision victory. The 30-year-old didn’t start boxing until he was 19 and is managed by Washington Redskins All-Pro offensive lineman Trent Williams, and trained in Houston by NFL All-Pro running back Adrian Peterson and James Cooper. George will look to transition from prospect to contender by defeating Escudero again on March 28.

Escudero (10-1, 9 KO) will look to bounce back and even the score against George, and in turn bolster his own position in the light heavyweight division. Il 26enne di Buenos Aires, Argentina has fought primarily in the U.S. since turning pro in 2017. His amateur career saw him become a national champion in Argentina in 2014 and represent his country in the Pan-Am Games in 2015. Escudero currently trains in Miami and scored three stoppage wins in 2019 before facing George for the first time.

1988 Medaglia d'oro olimpica “Merciless” Ray Mercer guarda indietro alla sua esperienza olimpica

COLORADO SPRINGS, Giro. (Febbraio 11, 2020) - Trentadue anni dopo aver conquistato una medaglia d'oro olimpica, “Merciless” Ray Mercer con affetto ricorda la sua esperienza olimpica come se fosse il mese scorso. merciaio, chi è il campione dei pesi massimi unico americano a mettere fuori tutti i suoi avversari olimpici, ha continuato a diventare campione del mondo dei pesi massimi come un professionista per il nostro “doppio pesi massimi.”

per Mercer, tutto è iniziato in Germania, dove la sua U.S.. unità dell'esercito si è basata. Offerto una possibilità di evitare un esercizio di campo di 30 giorni, Mercer ha accettato l'offerta per servire come uno sparring partner per campione dei pesi massimi del palo. Pur non avendo mai messo su un paio di guanti prima, Mercer era uno studente veloce che era naturalmente forte, e lui rapidamente sviluppato nel 1985 U.S. Esercito e Inter-service campione dei pesi massimi.

Il Programma atleta di classe mondiale (WCAP), in cui gli atleti qualificati hanno l'opportunità di allenarsi a tempo pieno per le Olimpiadi, non esisteva allora, né le regole del Olimpici di qualificazione di oggi. Mercer campione del mondo futuro sconfitto pesi massimiTommy Morrison nel turno dell'apertura 1988 Trials olimpici e un altro futuro mondo titlist pesi massimi, Michael Bentt (5-0) in finale campionato. Al 1988 USA Olimpico Box-off al famoso Caesars Pala

Perché a Las Vegas, Mercer ha vinto una decisione spaccata (3-2) su Bentt, ma Mercer era già qualificato per la lotta ai Giochi Olimpici per essere l'U.S.. campione Forze Armate.

“Quando ero nell'esercito, Ho dovuto vincere nel servizio, mantenere le cose, e passare alla fase successiva,”Mercer ricordato. “Ho dovuto battere alcuni buoni combattenti sul mio modo di Olimpiadi, e io ero nella migliore forma della mia vita. C'era più disciplina nei dilettanti rispetto a ranghi professionali. L'ultimo anno prima delle Olimpiadi, Ho lasciato la mia unità abitativa, viaggiato molto per combattere, e siamo stati in casa di mio allenatore, invece di vivere in caserma.

Mercer ha fatto la storia al 1988 Olimpiadi di Seoul, Corea Del Sud, quando è diventato e resta il campione dei pesi massimi unica Olimpico dagli Stati Uniti per knockout tutti e quattro i suoi avversari:  Rudolf Gavenciak (Cecoslovacchia - RSC3), Luigi Gaudiano(Italia - KO1), Arnond Vasnderlyde (Olanda - RSC2) eBuona Hyun-Man (Corea del Sud - KO1).

“Sapevo che dovevo knockout la Corea del Sud in finale,”Mercer ha ammesso. “Volevo solo fare quello che potevo essere la medaglia d'oro olimpica. Non credo che ho usato un jab.

“Vincere la medaglia d'oro olimpica ha provocato alcuni cambiamenti big-tempo per me. Sono diventato una celebrità, un nome, e mi ha permesso di fare i soldi come un professionista. La cosa migliore che mi sia mai capitata stava vincendo la medaglia d'oro olimpica, ancora più che vincere il titolo mondiale come un professionista. Niente in confronto a diventare un medaglia d'oro olimpica. Ho compiuto il mio sogno. Non avevo mai sognato di andare pro, fino a quando dopo aver vinto la medaglia d'oro.

“E 'stato davvero importante vincere quella medaglia d'oro. Ho combattuto con il cuore; senza soldi è stato coinvolto, festeggiato così forte che la notte (dopo aver vinto la medaglia d'oro) che ho perso la mia medaglia per poche ore. Il mio sogno si era avverato, le mie mani tremavano, e ho perso la mia medaglia. Che notte!"

Mercer offre ai membri del 2020 USA Boxing qualificazione olimpica della squadra uno po 'di consigli, "Continua a combattere, seguire il vostro sogno e prendere quel ultimo passo “.

merciaio, che è nato a Jacksonville, Florida, ha fatto il suo tanto atteso debutto pro in 1989, sostaJesse McGhee nel terzo turno della loro lotta a Atlantic City. “Merciless” ha vinto il suo primo 18 lotte pro, compreso un nono turno knockout diFrancisco Damiani, seguita da una difesa efficace contro Morrison, che è stato fermato nel quinto round.

Nel corso della sua carriera da professionista di 19 anni, Mercer compilato un 36-7-1 (26 KO) record, sconfiggendo quattro campioni del mondo in Damiani, Morrison, Tim Witherspoon eOssie Ocasio.  Cinque dei suoi otto perdite di carriera erano ai campioni del mondo: Lennox LewisWladimir Klitschko,Larry HolmesEvander Holyfield eShannon Briggs

“Ray rappresenta tutto ciò che rende orgogliosi USA Boxing,"Ha dettoChris Tofflemire, USA Boxing Alumni Association Direttore. “Come un veterano dell'esercito, Medaglia d'oro olimpica, e campione mondiale dei pesi massimi, ha dimostrato eccellenza e la professionalità che riflette il meglio di ciò USA Boxing ha da offrire “.

brillante carriera amatoriale di pugilato di Mercer comprendeva anche un classico match-up contro il cubano grande e tre volte medaglia d'oro olimpica, Felix Savon, a USA vs. Cuba partita doppia, in cui Mercer due volte sfalsati Savon, che sono sopravvissuti senza subire ulteriori danni solo perché l'arbitro cubana ha fatto un intervento discutibile che ha dato il suo compagno connazionale tempo per recuperare e una controversa 2-1 vittoria.

“E lui mi ha dato una standing otto conteggio per nessun motivo,”Mercer ha aggiunto. “Ho battuto quel ragazzo e lui lo sa. Siamo ancora in contatto anche se lui non parla inglese. Ha un amico tradurre e siamo in contatto su Facebook. Ci piacciamo."

Oggi, Mercer è fondatore un ente di beneficenza a casa in North Carolina, che includerà le cliniche boxe liberi, ma, ma ancora più importante, restituire alla comunità e insegnare i giovani, soprattutto quelli che sono vittime di bullismo, le competenze di cui avranno bisogno di andare fuori nel mondo reale.

Ray Mercer ha raggiunto lo zenit due volte nel pugilato come medaglia d'oro olimpica e campione del mondo dei pesi massimi come un professionista. Non troppo malandato per qualcuno che non ha mai voluto veramente scatola.

“La boxe mi ha salvato la vita,”Ha concluso Mercer. “Non riesco a immaginare la mia vita senza la boxe, certamente non sarebbe la stessa.

RAEESE ALEEM



“I’m very excited to be making my televised debut on SHOWTIME, where the world will get to see my talent. I’m definitely looking forward to making some new fans. This is a stepping stone to bigger and better things.



“I feel like I’m flying under the radar. I’ve been right there with all the other rising prospects. I’m originally from a small town so I never had the proper eyes on me. I feel like I must train twice as hard as the average fighter just to be in the same conversation than these guys. But that’s just how the game is. I’m ready to show up and show out.



“It’s been a huge transition since I moved out here [Las Vegas] from Muskegon, Mich., where I’m originally from. I came out here with no family and no friends, with the sole idea to pursue my career. I took a leap of faith and it has paid off. It’s been all about business here in Las Vegas, and it’s been great. I’ve been exposed to a lot of great fighters and picked up a lot of good tips.



“Adam Lopez is a tough Latino fighter who is going to bring his ‘A’ game, and he has something to prove. He has a lot of experience. He’s been in the ring with a lot of skilled guys and current world champions. This is the type of fight I need to take the next step toward being a world champion.



“I’m an aggressive boxer who likes to throw a lot of punches. I make my opponent miss and I make them pay. I’m all-action. I’m a beast! I’m prepared to go the distance, but my ultimate goal is to get him out of there, to get the win.”
