普羅維登斯, R.I. (五月 5, 2020) – 不敗的超級中量級前景拉蒙特 “有福的人” 鮑威爾, 根據2 - ½年前的普羅維登斯(Providence)的近乎死亡經歷, 很容易擁有 “幸運” 作為他的暱稱.
 
26歲的鮑威爾(Powell)是三屆銀牌冠軍, 誰編譯了 45-4 業餘紀錄, 兩年前. 他是 5-0 (1 KO) 作為專業人士,但, 由於大流行, 自去年八月以來,他從未戰鬥過, 當他在14-7-1中贏得了4輪一致的決定時里卡多·加西亞.
 
回到那個致命的夜晚 2018, 拉蒙特(Lamont)和他的叔叔坐在鮑威爾(Powell)家前的汽車上, 當另一輛車突然而令人驚訝地停在他們附近. 兩個身份不明的年輕人跳出來,開始向鮑威爾的方向發射自動武器. 射擊了36輪, 一個擊中鮑威爾的叔叔, 但是鮑威爾以某種方式奇蹟般地逃脫而沒有划痕.  
 
“沒有子彈打我,” 鮑威爾證實. “我很幸運,原因是上帝和我的母親 – 我們失去了她 (梅利莎) 當我是 3 – 誰是我的守護天使. 我們只是坐在車裡, 當兩個孩子下車並開始射擊我們的車時. 他們擴展了夾子, 但我不知道他們是誰, 直到今天,警察也沒有. 我的叔叔被送往醫院,我不得不開始看著自己更近。”
 
鮑威爾的祖父母 – 菲利普銅 和瑪麗·安·鮑威爾 – 撫養他, 因為他的母親去世了,父親進出了他的生活. 他的祖母是他的法定監護人,祖父從小就一直像父親一樣.
 
自然, 在他的超現實經歷之後, 鮑威爾極大地改變了他的生活方式. 而不是像他認識的許多人一樣跑步並結束, 死亡或被監禁, 鮑威爾致力於拳擊,並為高風險的孩子們創建了一個慈善機構, 手套, 開槍, 由普羅維登斯的六大拳擊學院贊助, 他與祖父擔任主教練的地方訓練, 以及前美國. 奧林匹亞拳擊手賈森 “六大” 路 在他的角落.
 
槍擊事件發生後,被槍殺的人伸向鮑威爾. 他們見面談論他們的經歷,很快創造了手套, 開槍, 哪 “炸毀” 過夜, 根據鮑威爾的說法.
 
“手套, 開槍” 為高風險的年輕人提供一個嘗試拳擊的機會,作為課後計劃的一部分,旨在使孩子們活躍起來,並擺脫困境. 孩子們提供拳擊設備,並通過適當的教練和支持來教授有價值的課程.
“我八歲的時候開始拳擊,” 鮑威爾補充說. “拳擊使我離開街道,忙碌. 這是一項在學校外的運動,每個人都可以參與。”
 
鮑威爾由吉米·伯奇菲爾德(Jimmy Burchfield)的經典體育和娛樂推廣 (CES). 伯奇菲爾德顯然記得他第一次見到鮑威爾, 因為他如此令人印象深刻 2 林肯伍茲州立公園的池塘周圍的½英里路線.
 
“我經常走到那裡, 我看過每個人都在掙扎著那些山丘, 包括頂級運動員, 但是我看到這個孩子沒有問題,” 伯奇菲爾德記得. “後來我發現他是一個拳擊手,知道我不必擔心他處於最佳狀態.  
 
“拉蒙特和他的祖父見我, 誰是他一生的重要組成部分, 稍後羅蘭路 加入了我們. 我給我留下了深刻的印象,因為拉蒙特有一份全職工作, 但, 他訓練如此努力. 我了解到他來自普羅維登斯最艱難的地區之一,小時候跑了街頭. 有一天,, 他打電話問我是否會和他一起去大都會學校, 他要在哪裡談論 150 孩子和老師. 他談到要跑大街,並承認自己已經做到了. 他對我說,如果他能影響其中一個或兩個孩子的生活, 他會感到高興, 那給我的眼淚. 他要在其他學校講話, 但是這個大流行已經擱置了. 他的程序不. 1 在他的生活中, 幫助高危孩子,這樣他們就不會重複拉蒙特年輕時所做的事情。”
 
在環, 鮑威爾(Powell)顯示一個僵硬的戳戳和, 當然, 巨大的條件. 和大多數拳擊手一樣, 他認為他有一天會成為冠軍.
 
“一切都按照CE的計劃進行,” 鮑威爾得出結論. “我的祖父從第一天開始就一直是我的主教練, 傑森還指導我, 和文檔. 埃斯特拉達是我的顧問. 拳擊對我來說很自然. 我只需要努力工作. 總有一天,我將成為一個冠軍,我迫不及待地想看到我的祖父把腰帶抱在他的頭上, 因為沒有人應該比他更多。”
 
伯奇菲爾德(Burchfield)一直是拳擊促進者 30 歲月, 他同意鮑威爾有一天將成為冠軍. “他絕對是成為冠軍的使命,” 伯奇菲爾德補充說, 而且他有實現這一目標所需的一切. 這個孩子的故事非常好. 他可以成為冠軍,並繼續幫助處於危險的孩子過上更好的生活. 有什麼比那更好?”
 
鮑威爾, 他還給六大拳擊學院的聖誕節的有需要的兒童送給有需要的孩子, 在他職業生涯的拳擊旅程中,他認為有一天會加冕世界冠軍.  
 
簡而言之, 拉蒙特·鮑威爾(Lamont Powell)是總包裝, 進出環. 幸運地活著!

天生盒子雷 “BOOM BOOM” 曼奇尼

(圖片由蓋蒂圖片社提供)
科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (四月 27, 2020) — 作為一名拳擊手的兒子, 國際拳擊名人堂入選者 (“2015級”) 射線 “BOOM BOOM” 曼奇尼 為盒子而生, 和揚斯敦, 俄亥俄州的戰鬥機爬上了這項運動的山頂, 捕獲世界拳擊協會 (WBA) 輕量級標題 1982.

曼奇尼的父親, 已故 萊尼 “BOOM BOOM” 曼奇尼, 專業裝箱 1937 到 1947, 編譯 46-12-3 (16 科斯) 親紀錄. 萊尼是不. 1 世界輕量級排名 1941 並被認為是未來的世界冠軍. 然而, 當他在第二次世界大戰中受傷時,他的夢想悲慘地破滅了. 出院後重回拳擊, 但由於傷口導致的身體問題阻止了他發揮曾經巨大的潛力.

他的兒子, 射線, 拿著斗篷,帶著它一舉成名, 作為世界冠軍的榮耀和惡名. 他年輕時就開始拳擊,並在他成年時進行了第一次戰鬥 15 在克利夫蘭青少年奧運會上. 雷曾以為他必須等到他轉身 16, 因為那是參加金手套賽的最低年齡.

“當我聽說我可以進入 (青少年奧運會),” 曼奇尼記得, “我向父親施壓讓我走 (到克利夫蘭). 一個非常親密的家庭朋友正在我們隔壁鎮訓練一些人,他帶一些戰士參加青少年奧運會. 他說他會帶我去那裡. 我在首輪淘汰賽中以首戰獲勝,最終贏得了地區冠軍. 我去了底特律的中西部地區和當地的一個孩子打架, 薩米·富恩特斯, 去國民隊. 他決定打敗我, 但我學到了關於拳擊和生活的第一堂真正的課: 經驗就是一切. 這是我的第六場業餘比賽,有人告訴我富恩特斯有超過 200. 它並沒有阻止我, 事實上, 這讓我更加渴望成功。”

他成功了, 儘管他的侵略性風格最適合專業隊伍而不是業餘愛好者. 他贏了 43 的 50 業餘比賽, 獲得最高榮譽 1977 揚斯敦金手套和俄亥俄州東北部金手套. 他還贏得了東北俄亥俄州 AAU 錦標賽並進入了八強 1978 全國AAU錦標賽.

“我在半決賽中輸掉了一場勢均力敵的決定 1978 兩次獲得美國國家金手套獎. 奧林匹亞 戴維·阿姆斯特朗(Davey Armstrong),” 曼奇尼說. “我失去了決定 安東尼弗萊徹 在四分之一決賽中 1978 全國 AAU 錦標賽並再次進入俄亥俄州博覽會的錦標賽決賽. 在我最後的業餘比賽中, 我失去了衛冕全國冠軍的錯誤決定 梅爾文·保羅 在 1979 全國金手套錦標賽. (之後) 我知道我不會再打一場業餘比賽,而是要轉為職業選手.

“當我參加業餘比賽時,我有更多的職業風格. 三輪對我沒有好處. 我從來沒有打過四局 (作為一個親). 我從六輪選手開始,因為, 我的風格, 三輪業餘比賽或四輪職業比賽對我來說幾乎相同. 六輪對我更有利,這立即得到了證明.

“我知道我不會因為我的風格贏得任何主要的業餘錦標賽. 一路上, 雖然, 我打敗了一些相當不錯的業餘愛好者: 達里爾·錢伯斯,備忘錄 Arreola, 蒂姆·克里斯蒂安森馬克·基韋里尼. 我的業餘生涯讓我更加渴望以職業選手的身份贏得世界冠軍。”



他尋求和破壞的風格使他立即成為專業人士的最愛. “我必須有攻擊性, 當我參加其他運動時,作為一名戰士或在運動場上, 因為我的本能,” 曼奇尼解釋. “我不能坐等事情發生; 我必須努力讓事情發生. 我在我的商業生活中也遵循這種想法, 但很像格鬥遊戲, 你必須知道什麼時候進攻,什麼時候坐下來反擊。”

曼奇尼, 由於他的戰斗方式,有人稱他為小洛基馬西亞諾, 十月轉職業 18, 1979 在斯特拉瑟斯, 俄亥俄, 停車 菲爾·鮑恩 在首輪. 雷戰鬥 15 在他作為職業選手的第一年,他的連勝紀錄擴大到 19, 在他挑戰世界拳擊理事會之前 (WBC) 輕量級世界冠軍 亞歷克西斯·阿奎羅 (67-5), 誰通過 14 輪技術淘汰賽獲勝, 在一場即使死了的戰鬥中 10 發. 比賽結束後, 然後引用了未來的名人堂成員 Arguello 的話說: “我覺得我的心很特別, 但他的 (曼奇尼) 比我大. 總有一天他會成為冠軍。”

僅僅七個月和三場戰鬥之後, 曼奇尼奪得世界拳擊協會冠軍 (WBA) 輕量級世界冠軍的方式轟動一時的衛冕冠軍首輪淘汰賽 阿圖羅·弗里亞斯 (24-1). 雷將那場戰鬥獻給了他的父親, 誰沒能成為世界冠軍, 由於他在二戰中所受的傷.

曼奇尼結束了他的職業生涯 29-5 (23 科斯), 其中包括對世界冠軍的勝利 鮑比·查肯 (523-5-1), 埃內斯托 西班牙 (35-4), 弗里斯和 何塞·路易斯·拉米雷斯 (71-3), 他的五場失利都輸給了世界冠軍 – 阿圭羅, 赫克托卡馬喬, 格雷格·霍恩利文斯通荊棘 (兩次).

“Ray'Boom Boom’ 曼奇尼在他的整個職業生涯中都展示了一顆冠軍的心,” 說 克里斯tofflemire, 美國拳擊校友主任. “儘管他在擂台上的成功主要是在專業層面上討論的, 作為業餘愛好者學習和成長的渴望激勵著當今的美國拳擊冠軍. 他是美國拳擊校友的另一個例子,他從業餘時間的經驗和教訓中獲得了巨大的成功。”

曼奇尼為自己在揚斯敦的出身感到自豪, 這也產生了世界職業拳擊冠軍,如 哈里·阿羅約, 傑夫蘭普金, 格雷格·理查森凱利帕夫利.

“在揚斯敦長大對我作為一名戰士有很大幫助,” 曼奇尼談家鄉. “我們都知道這是一個多麼艱難的城鎮,我們知道所有戰士的故事, 業餘和專業, 誰在我們面前留下了印記. 在那里長大, 足球和拳擊是每個人都談論的兩項運動. 如果你在其中任何一個中留下了印記, 在你玩了很久之後人們仍然在談論你, 或者戰鬥的日子結束了. 所以, 在像揚斯敦這樣的小鎮取得成功, 本身就是一項巨大的成就。”


美國拳擊校友會

創建冠軍終身, 美國拳擊和校友之間的互利關係, — 拳擊手, 官員, 教練和拳擊迷 — 校友會連冠軍的代, 鼓舞人心,回饋美國拳擊的未來拳擊冠軍, 進出環.

超受歡迎的曼奇尼是少數拍過電影的拳擊手之一 (“冠軍之心: 雷曼奇尼的故事)”), 歌曲 (“Boom Boom 曼奇尼” 沃倫·澤文) 和書 (“好兒子: 雷的生活 “BOOM BOOM” 馬克·克里格爾的曼奇尼) 關於他.

今天, 59歲的曼奇尼仍居住在揚斯敦, 他仍然參與拳擊活動,作為福克斯電視台 PBC 的色彩評論員. 在過去的三年裡,他還是俄亥俄州拳擊委員會的成員. “我參與了 (在拳擊比賽中) 盡可能接近我仍然可以成為粉絲,” 他承認. “我最想念的格鬥遊戲是在精神上和情感上挑戰自己, 並且能夠 “起床” 每天挑戰自己的身體. 在戰鬥前站在另一個男人面前, 就在戒指的中央, 並對自己說, “要么你今晚被帶走,要么我, 但我們中的一個人今晚要離開這裡,’ 是我的心態. 我想念那個挑戰!”

回顧他的拳擊生涯, 曼奇尼堅稱他不會改變任何事情. “我不能說我會做任何不同的事情, 回想起來, 因為我贏得了世界冠軍, 成功防守它四次, 賺了大錢,健康地退休了,” 曼奇尼總結道. “人們仍然記得併談論我的戰鬥,我進入了國際拳擊名人堂, 戰士的終極聖地. 所以, 為什麼我想做不同的事情?”

Top USA amateur boxers adjusting to life without fights & waiting another year for Olympics show

Arjan Iseni training during the pandemic

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (四月 23, 2020) — Amateur boxing, as in the professional ranks, has been shut-down worldwide due to the Coronavirus pandemic. USA Boxing members are adjusting to these challenging and trying times all across the country.

Gyms and schools are closed, tournaments suspended, 而 2020 Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo have been postponed a year. Members of the Elite Qualification, Youth and Junior High Performance teams are home rather than in Colorado Springs training at the state-of-art United States Olympic and Paralympic Training Center.

How are some of the leading U.S. amateur boxers living during this period without fights?

ELITE OLYMPIC QUALIFICATION TEAM

約瑟夫·希克斯 (大急流城, 密歇根), 26-year-old middleweight, USA Ranking #2
Gold medal performances: 2019 全國金手套; 2017 & 2018 東方精英預選賽; 3-time Eastern Elite Qualifier (2017-2019)

Hicks was within one qualifier victory of officially becoming a member of the 2020 Team USA Olympic Boxing Team. He is taking advantage of the break, 雖然, spending quality time with his wife and young daughter.



I personally feel that this has been a blessing in disguise, because I have more time to improve on the things the USA coaches have been telling me to work on. I live in an apartment in Lansing (MY), but I’ve been staying with my mom in Grand Rapids so I can comfortably train. It’s weird in a way, but I miss getting punched at. I’ve been trying to adapt to the new normal, but I can’t wait to be back at the training center (在科羅拉多斯普林斯).

I love that I can see my daughter every day to give her all my attention, but she misses the gym as much as me. My wife and mother have been very supportive. I believe waiting another year will only make me better by the time the Olympics are here.

Oshae瓊斯, (托萊多, 俄亥俄), 22-year-old welterweight, USA Ranking #1
Gold Medal Performances: 2020 奧運團體選拔賽, 3-time Elite National Championships (2016-2019), 2017 東方精英預選賽, 2016 Youth Open, 2014 國家PAL. 國際的: 2020 Strandja Tournament & 2019 Pan-American Games

Jones had been on a roll leading up to the since postponed Americas Qualifier to lock a roster spot on the 2020 Team USA Olympic Boxing Team. She has been training at her family’s gym in Toledo, as well as getting more involved in community services and functions.



I have not adapted to life without boxing, because boxing will never leave my life. 我的家人 / coaches have a gym connected to our house we live in. Boxing is not a sport, it’s a lifestyle .

My heart dropped when I first heard that the Olympics were postponed. Everything that I have been working toward for basically my whole life is on pause until next July. I do not know how I feel or how to express how I feel. The only thing I can do is try to stay motivated.


YOUTH HIGH PERFORMANCE TEAM

Arjan Iseni (斯塔滕島, 紐約), 17-year-old light heavyweight, USA Ranking #1
Gold Medal Performances: 2019 Youth National Championships, Eastern Regional Open & Youth Open

Iseni lives in the Coronavirus epicenter, 斯塔滕島, 紐約. He and his father built a small ring in their backyard (見下面的圖片) because he couldn’t train in any gyms.

It’s very hard to know that I won’t be able to represent Team USA this year in any international tournaments. This is my last year as a youth boxer, but I have been training very hard during quarantine, and I will be ready for whatever is next for me.

It is hard knowing that I will not be fighting soon, but this gives me more time to perfect the little flaws in my game, and I’ll comeback stronger when this all ends. 希望, everything goes back to normal soon, so I can get back to fighting actively and hopefully make Team USA as an Elite boxer.


Shera Mae Patricio (懷厄奈, 夏威夷), 17-year-old flyweight, USA Ranking #1
Gold Medal Performances: 2019 Youth National Championships & Western Regional Open; 2018 Youth National Championships & Western Regionals Open; 2017 全國少年奧運會 & 全國金手套

Patricio lives the furthest away from training camp and her teammates, but her family owns a boxing gym, and training/sparring isn’t as a problem for her because she has eight siblings.



We are in quarantine and I have adapted to life without fights by continuing to train at our personal gym with my siblings. Training hasn’t been a problem for us because we have our own personal gym. We sanitize all the equipment and the gym before and after training. Since there are no fights coming soon, we have been sharpening up our skills and building more knowledge We’ve been gaining strength and keeping up our endurance. On weekends, my dad rides a bike while we run laps to get some sunlight, and sometimes we do sprint drills outside.

Our family is a boxing family that started with my dad as he was a boxer. He started training me, only for defense, but it started to get serious in 2015 when I won my first tournament in Kansas. All of my other siblings are also boxers and they’re also multiple-time champions. My siblings and I have been getting a ton of family time staying home together. This quarantine has made us even closer. Our bond makes us stronger individually and as one. I’m far away from training in Colorado Springs, but my teammates are only a phone call away. I’m able to stay in touch and that’s very warming. Some of the coaches check on me to see how I’ve been doing. I looked forward to all the tournaments I planned to fight in and I’m disappointed they’ve been postponed, but I have more time to be even better prepared for my next fight.

JUNIOR HIGH PERFORMANCE TEAM

Steven Navarro (洛杉磯, 加利福尼亞州) 16-year-old flyweight, USA Ranking #1
Gold Medal Performances: 2019 全國青少年錦標賽 & 國家PAL; 2018 全國青少年錦標賽; 2017 Prep Open & Western Regional Open

Navarro was training in Colorado Springs to prepare for international competition in Bulgaria, but the trip was cancelled two days before Navarro and his teammates were scheduled to depart.



As a member of the USA Boxing Junior Team, I look forward to every fight / 比賽, because it could be my last. So it was very heartbreaking when I was notified that our fights in Bulgaria and future international fights were cancelled due to this pandemic. I continue working as hard as I do on a regular basis: waking up at 5 in the morning, 賽跑 5-6 miles in nearby hills, of course wearing my mask. I come home to take my online classes from 9 a.m.-2 p.m., which gives me a 2-hour nap before heading to my private gym. I am the only person who trains at my gym every day at 4:30 P.M. Once I get to the gym, I begin stretching for 3 發 (3-minute rounds), shadow box for 5-7 發, then I hit five varieties of punching bags (3 每個回合). Afterwards, I work mitts (5-8 發) where I focus on different movements and situations that could possibly happen in a fight. I often hit the double-end bag and speed bag for 3 發. I finish my boxing training with 15 分鐘. of jump rope.

I train on a daily basis for 2 hours with my father/coach Refugio Navarro. This pandemic is a bit of a gamble due to not having access to sparring. I do tend to ‘movewith my father once every week, but the experience is different. Once finished, I head to my grandparentshouse (only one block away from my home) to do my strength and conditioning. I do wear a mask and gloves when working out there. My grandfather is a bodybuilder and has his gym setup in his garage. I work-out with my grandfather for a good hour, constantly disinfecting all equipment, to wrap-up my day. I work with what I have, which is a blessing. Boxing isn’t a season sport, you must stay ready all year for anything, and that’s what I continue to do as I strive for greatness.

Fernanda Chavez (達拉斯, 得克薩斯州), 14-year-old bantamweight, USA Ranking #2
Gold Medal Performances: 2019 Junior Open; 2018 Prep Open & Eastern Regional



Chavez is a first-year member of the Junior High Performance Team and her inaugural training camp in Colorado Springs was pushed back.

Adapting to this new lifestyle hasn’t been the easiest. I’m thankful I have my family, as we’ve been going on daily runs and workouts at parks. My family understands the importance of my athleticism and staying fit, which is why we continue to motivate each other during this tough time. I’m not sure when our lives will return to normal, which is why I’m still prepared at all times.

The things I’m looking forward to most at camp in Colorado Springs is meeting other junior females on the team, as well as learning the different styles they bring. I also look forward to creating bonds between my new teammates and coaches from across the nation.

紐約 - 四月 14, 2020 – This week’s installment of the digital podcast seriesSHOWTIME BOXING WITH ERIC RASKIN AND KIERAN MULVANEY features heavyweight contender Otto Wallin, who recently recovered from COVID-19, and promoter Dmitriy Salita in an interview about life in quarantine and the effect the virus has had on the sport of boxing. 更多, Hall of Fame analyst and boxing historian Steve Farhood joins this week’sRevenge: The Rematchessegment to discuss Azumah Nelson vs. Jesse James Leija II, Gerald McClellan vs. Julian Jackson II, and Julio Cesar Chavez vs. Frankie Randall II. Click the following link to listen to the full episodehttps://s.sho.com/3bkvFp1.

Excerpts from the episode:

On COVID-19 and its effect on the sport of boxing…

字 – “It’s a really unpredictable environment right now. Boxing is an international sport. Now more than ever, fighters come to the U.S. from all over to train and fight. It’s really important that the whole world heals so that things can go back to normal.”

沃林 – “This virus is very serious. People are dying – people from the gym have died. I didn’t have many symptoms when I had it, but it spread to my mother’s boyfriend who is a diabetic and he was very ill. When you are home, don’t just stay on the couch. You have to come up with ideas to keep yourself busy and do something.”

On staying in shape during quarantine…

沃林 – “I am trying to make the best of the situation, and I can do a lot with what I have now. It’s working alright. I do some boxing punching on the wall and lots of shadow boxing.”

On Salita Promotions’ Train Like a Boxer YouTube Series…

字 – “We were thinking of ways to keep connections between the fighters and the fans. Everyone is stuck at home, no one can go to work and it’s important to stay healthy and active. We thought we could let the fans know about what the fighters are doing at home and keep communication between everyone going.”

On what’s next for Wallin…

字 – “In the fight with [泰森] Fury you can see how amazing his performance was. Numbers don’t lie, Otto landed more punches against Fury than any opponent including [弗拉基米爾] Klitschko and [Deontay] Wilder –in the first fight. Otto is a world-class fighter, and hopefully we get back to business and he can show that he is one of the best heavyweights in the world.”

On Chavez vs. Randall II…

Farhood“I think it was a sign Chavez was getting to the end, he was only 31 but he had 90 fights and I think Randall got him at the right time. Watching Randall in both fights boxing so well reminded me a bit of Buster Douglas against [話筒] 泰森. This guy didn’t give you anything to think he could do something like this – just boxing beautifully. I thought Randall probably deserved the rematch decision by a point, but it was a very close fight.”

The weekly SHOWTIME BOXING podcast features Raskin and Mulvaney diving deep into the world of boxing and SHOWTIME boxing events. New episodes are released on all major podcast platforms every Monday, including Radio.com.

CONTENDERS CLOTHING LAUNCHES FIGHTING FOR FIGHTERS FUNDALL PROCEEDS TO GO DIRECTLY TO PROFESSIONAL FIGHTERS AFFECTED BY THE COVID-19 CRISIS!

FIGHTERS CAN SIGN UP NOW FOR A DIRECT PAYMENT SENT OUT FIRST WEEK OF MAY ALL PROCEEDS FROM THE NEW’GO THE SOCAL DISTANCEFUNDRAISER T-SHIRT& 10% OF SALES AT CONTENDERSCLOTHING.COM TO GO TO FUND
拉斯維加斯, NV. (四月 13, 2020): Contenders Clothing is proud to announce the creation of the Fighting for Fighters Fund, a new program that will put money directly, and immediately, into the hands of professional fighters affected by the current Covid-19 crisis.

With combat sports across the United States being suspended indefinitely, many fighters who earn a living competing professionally are self-employed contractors leaving them out of work and not eligible for state unemployment. While there is money earmarked for contract workers under the Cares Act, funds have been hard to, if not impossible, to access, leaving many working class fighters in dire need of assistance.

While some well-known apparel companies are donating to large and mostly worldwide health organizations, we’ve yet to see any company directly help fighters,” said Contenders Chief Executive Officer, Jonathan Snyder.

We have been embraced by professional fighters of all levels who have worn our boxer briefs and t-shirts at weigh ins and we truly consider anyone who wears us as part of our family. They’ve had our back and now it’s time to have theirs.

Funding for Fighting for Fighters will come from the sales of an exclusive, ‘Go The Social Distancet-shirt created specifically as a fundraiser for the program. 此外, Contenders Clothing is giving 10% of every single sale throughout the entire month of April at www.contendersclothing.com directly into the fund.

Payments will go out the first week of May and will be divided equally from the overall amount Fighting for Fighters raises between all eligible fighters.

We’ve come to find that fighters are special people in and out of the ring and not enough people understand their sacrifice. 是否 Fighting for Fighters can literally buy groceries for a fightersfamily for a week or pay a utility bill at a time when they desperately need it, then we will consider it a success.

“我的系統中有拳擊. 我和兄弟們一起去了塔科馬市區男孩俱樂部, 離我們家只有一個街區, 我媽媽可以看著我從我們家走到健身房再回來. 我是第一個贏得金手套獎的人. 我想成為贏家並完成 14 (冠軍) 外套. 我不會說英語. 我會西班牙語,並且會說西班牙語和英語. 我用英語說的第一個字是盒子. 我們過去每天打三四次,我們建立了塔科馬拳擊俱樂部。. 我繼續有一個 338-12 業餘唱片,從那以後我一直在拳擊。”

西爾斯成為冠軍, 採取的最高榮譽 1971 國家AAU和 1972 全國金手套錦標賽. 在年齡 19, 在美國征募的Seales. 空軍, 但是他的母親打了一些電話,所以雷將能夠參加 1972 慕尼黑奧運會, 德國.

她成功了,其餘的, 正如他們所說, 是歷史. 當他從奧運會回家時, 有人告訴他沒有必要向美國報告. 空軍, 因為他作為唯一一名獲得金牌的美國拳擊手在服務方面做得足夠.

該 1972 奧運會, 然而, 被殺害給蒙上了陰影 11 以色列運動員和教練, 以及黑色九月恐怖分子在奧林匹克村的西德警察.

“我剛滿20歲,” 西爾斯想起. “我們去那裡時拳擊很重. 我的一些家人, 我來自塔科馬的教練, 和塔科馬隊友 (和2次美國. 奧林匹亞)戴維·阿姆斯特朗(Davey Armstrong) 在德國. 一開始我什麼都不知道. 我必須引起父母的注意,讓他們知道不要去那裡, 因為奧運村里有使用衝鋒槍的恐怖分子. 我是唯一剩下的要戰鬥的美國拳擊手。”

西爾斯擊敗了保加利亞人 安吉赫洛夫(Angjei Anghhelov), 5-0, 在輕中量級冠軍中獲得奧運金牌, 美國的唯一成員. 團隊這樣做. 他的隊友包括阿姆斯特朗, 杜安·波比克(Duane Bobick), 和奧運銅牌得主 傑西·瓦爾德茲(Jesse Valdez), 馬文·約翰遜里卡多·卡雷拉斯.

“每個人都想向奧運金牌得主投籃,” 西爾斯解釋。” 我去了波士頓,我們在一家電視演播室打架 (WNAC). 那裡凍結了. 當我進入鈴聲時我發抖, 馬文出來流汗. 我知道我輸了, 但我和他掛了,走了很遠 (10 發). 我遇到管理問題,三個月後我又與哈格勒戰鬥, 只有這次在塔科馬. 我擊敗了他,但以10回合結束. 他知道我打了他!”

西爾斯與哈格勒完成了他的三部曲, 但是五年後, 哈格勒當時 42-2-1 並且被世界上大多數頂級中量級人士所避免. “我是USBA (美國拳擊協會) 和北美拳擊聯合會 (NABF) 中量級冠軍和哈格勒需要贏得冠軍才能獲得世界冠軍,” 錫爾斯指出. “我在第一輪輸了第三局, 但這是我們三場比賽中唯一在電視上顯示的東西. 我們是兩個左撇子, 但他改用右手, 他用鉤子抓住了我. 我得到報酬,他們給他買了世界冠軍大賽。”

過去,西爾斯曾在印第安納波利斯執教過兩支業餘球隊 11 歲月, 勝利 10 金手套隊冠軍, 並且他仍在IBG團隊的Indy中負責.

他退休後 1984 兩隻眼睛視網膜脫離後, Seales在拉斯維加斯被介紹給Sammy Davis, JR. (如下圖所示), 誰付了西爾斯’ $100,000 眼睛受損的醫療費用. 戴維斯(Davis)失去了左眼 1952 車禍



“我是一名教師,” 西爾斯總結. “我看到很多拳擊手想要戰鬥的方式梅威瑟. 他們的頭傾斜, 他們不能刺戳. 我教他們右腳在左腳後面 (一個右手拳擊手), 並直走, 沒有傾斜或達到峰值. 非常, 每次旋轉都是腳跟腳趾的姿勢.

“我對希望參加拳擊比賽的拳擊手的建議 2020 奧運就是要專注於自己在做的事情,聽聽如何做到. 我真正想做的是執教2024年美國奧林匹克拳擊隊。”

Thomas and Campbell will watch the SHOWTIME replay and react to the fights in real time, feature special guest interviews with principal participants from the bouts (戰士, 教練, referees and promoters) and take questions from fans while the bouts replay on the network.

“The greatest fight I’ve ever covered,” said Al Bernstein, the International Boxing Hall of Fame analyst. In a career that spans more than 40 歲月, including calling Hagler-Hearns, Bowe-Holyfield I and the Vazquez-Marquez trilogy, Bernstein says the first Corrales-Castillo war was the best. “This was Hagler-Hearns times three because it lasted so much longer. It was fought at a such an extraordinary skill level and to me that is what made it so special.”

The fights scheduled to air in April include:

Corrales-Castillo I (五月 7, 2005, Corrales TKO 10) – After nine intense, back-and-forth rounds in a WBC and WBO lightweight unification bout, Corrales accomplishes the unthinkable, miraculously regrouping from knockdowns in the 10 to stop Castillo and etch his name in boxing lore. After managing to beat the count (and losing a point for spitting the mouthpiece), Corrales got Castillo on the ropes and connected with a huge right hand. Corrales continued to unload on a defenseless Castillo, forcing referee Tony Weeks to halt the blazing action.

Corrales-Castillo II (十月 8, 2005, Castillo KO 4) – Castillo, who did not make the 135-pound weight limit, making the contest a non-title bout, avenges an earlier loss to the WBC and WBO Lightweight World Champion Corrales with a one-punch, fourth-round knockout. Castillo consistently outworks Corrales and lands the harder punches in a more one-sided bout than their first affair. Castillo staggers his opponent with a right hand in the third round that sends him stumbling backward across the ring. He then scores a finishing knockdown with a left hook in the fourth that puts Corrales flat on his back.

Ayala-Tapia I (六月 26, 1999, Ayala W 12) – In some of the fiercest two-way action in the history of Las Vegas boxing, southpaw Ayala hands Tapia his first professional loss in 49 fights and captures the WBA Bantamweight Title by the scores of 115-114 和 116-113 兩次. As the boxers were being announced, Tapia walked across the ring and shoved Ayala, causing a momentary skirmish.

Ayala-Tapia II (十月 7, 2000, Ayala W 12) – In a rematch of 1999’s Fight of the Year, the action between the heated rivals does not disappoint. 然而, the outcome is the same as their first meeting, with Ayala winning via controversial unanimous decision. Mayhem ensues as the decision is announced and an incensed Tapia is ushered from the ring by security.

Matthysse-Molina (四月 26, 2014, Matthysse KO 11) – Fighting in the night’s co-main event, Matthysse steals the show with a spectacular 11-round knockout over Molina in 2014’s Fight of the Year. The Argentine, then ranked No. 1 in the world at 140 英鎊, is hurt in the first and dropped in the second and fifth rounds. But Matthysse comes back with knockdowns in the eighth, 10 和 11rounds to turn back a determined bid by Molina.

Bey-Molina (七月 19, 2013, Molina KO 10) – In one of 的ShoBox: 新一代的 most unforgettable rounds, Molina comes back from the brink of certain defeat to dramatically knockout then-unbeaten Mickey Bey. 標題進入 10 而最後一輪, Molina was trailing on the three judges’ scorecards by 90-81, 89-82 和 88-83.
