İLƏ YAXIN VƏ ŞƏXSİ 10 VAXT DÜNYA KİKBOKS ÇEMPİONU CAITLIN FORAN, PRO BOKS BOŞ DEBUTUNUN ÖNÜNDƏ

Bu pandemik kilidləmə ilə bütün gücündə faktiki olaraq dünya miqyasında, bir çox dava onsuz da ləğv edilmişdir, ən böyüyündən, Anthony Joshua kimi Kubrat Pulev kimi, bir çox kiçik salon tədbirlərinə qədər.


Şübhəsiz ki, kilidləmə sevimli idmanımızla əlaqəli hər kəsi təsir edir, peşəkar boksda ilk hazırlaşanlar haqqında düşünməyə məcbur etdi, bugünkü qurban kimi, üzr qonaq, Caitlin Foran, 25 aprel tarixində Orkneydə debüt etməsi lazım olan.


Caitlin on qat Kikboksinq Dünya Çempionudur, hələ ədalətli biri üçün olduqca uğurdur 19 yaş, belə bir gənc yaşda istənilən idman növündə bu qədər yüksək bir status qazanmağın kifayət qədər bir müvəffəqiyyət olduğunu və şübhəsiz ki, bu geniş yayılmış döyüş idman təcrübəsi bu pandemiya bitdikdə və ilk çıxışını etdiyi zaman ona fayda gətirəcəkdir..


Caitlinlə mart ayında Furess-in Furnessdəki bir tədbirdə görüşməkdən zövq aldım, Paul Peers-ə etiraz etdiyi zaman onu dəstəklədiyi yer, və döymək, Professional Boks Şurası üçün Nikaraqua Milton Arauz (PBC) Beynəlxalq ad, və həmişə ilk debütünü əhatə etmək niyyətindədi, Ancaq bununla da mövcud vəziyyətə görə ilin sonuna qədər geri qoyulmaq əvəzinə onunla bir reportaj təşkil etməyə qərar verdi.


Mənim vafli yetər, bu ecazkar yeniyetmə ulduzu bir az daha yaxşı tanıyaq.




(GDC) Salam Caitlin, vaxt ayırıb bizim üçün bir neçə sualı cavablandırdığınız üçün təşəkkür edirəm. İlk sualım, bir çox Dünya Çempionu Kick Boksçusu olduğunuzu başa düşürəm, xahiş edirəm Kick Boxing karyeranız haqqında oxucularımıza bir az məlumat verərdiniz?




(CF) Beləliklə içəri kikboksinqə başladım 2008 səkkiz yaşında, o vaxt çox sayda idman və fəaliyyətlə kikboksinqlə hoqqabazlıq edirdim, amma zaman keçdikcə diqqətim kikboksinqlə sıxışdı və bu mənim həyatım oldu.


Mən, şübhəsiz ki, idman üçün istedadı olanlardan biri deyildim. Çevik deyildim, Özümə inam yox idi, amma bu günə qədər məni daşıyan bir şey qətiyyətdir.


Bir adada yaşadığımız üçün materikdəki digər klublar qədər müsabiqəyə gələ bilmədik, bu da təcrübə çatışmazlığının əvəzini çıxarmaq üçün əlavə səy göstərməli olduğumuzu bilirdi..


Həm də anamın tək bir valideyn olduğu böyük bir ailədən gəlir 5 uşaqlar nadir hallarda yarışmaq üçün qaça biləcəyimi və qara kəmərimi alana qədər düzgün rəqabətə başlamadığımı nəzərdə tuturdu 2011.


Sonra adətən ayda bir dəfə yarışmağa başladım, ilk böyük çempionat isə 2 qat qızıl qazandığım Qlazqoda WKA Şotlandiya çempionatı oldu., bu mənim ilk böyük güvənim oldu və İngilis və Avropa ilə yanaşı daha çox Şotlandiya adları qazanaraq daha çox yarışmağa davam etdim.


Sonra ilk dünya çempionatına dəvət aldım 2013 bürünc medal ilə gəldiyim İtaliyada.


Rəqabət edərkən həmişə mübarizə aparan xallara üstünlük verirdim, daha çox karate üslubudur, 'Dur dur’ döyüş tərzi, amma Praqa'daki ikinci Dünya çempionatımda 2014, üzüyü üçün davasız bir qadın var idi Davamlı bölmə, buna görə döyüşü aparıb aparmayacağım soruşuldu.


Heç vaxt döyüşü rədd edən biri olmamışdım, ona görə də döyüşü götürdüm və iki nəfər kimi qazandım, beləliklə ilk üç Dünya titulumu və üzük döyüşünə yeni məhəbbətimlə gəldim.


Etibarən 2014 qədər 2017 Müxtəlif ölkələrdə daha yeddi Dünya titulu qazandım.


Ilə 2016/17 kikboksinq karyeram həqiqətən gerçəkləşirdi və tezliklə peşəkar olmağa baxırdım, lakin sonunda 2017 məşqçim Ryan Reffell kefsiz keçdi və kikboksinq karyeramı sonlandırdı.


(GDC) Kick Boksdan Professional Boksa keçməyinizə təsir edən nədir?


(CF) Daha əvvəl də qeyd etdiyim kimi, Heç vaxt təbii çevik insan olmamışam, buna görə kikboksinqdə ayaqlarım əsasən güclü bədən tək vuruşlarında istifadə olunurdu.


Hələ Nemesis Kikboksinqin bir hissəsi olaraq Ryan ilə məşq edərkən, sonunda 2015 əllərimlə yaxşılaşdığıma qərar verdik və boksa keçməyi düşünməyə başladıq.


Bu, Ryan-ı bazar ertəsi gecə boks dərslərinə və həftə içi kikboksinq dərslərinə başlamağa gətirib çıxarır.


İlk döyüşümü o sentyabr ayında təklif etdim 4 UKBC yüngül çəkidə beynəlxalq çempionluq üçün gün bildirişi. Mübarizəni qazanmağa davam etdim və dekabrdakı bir cavab görüşündə müdafiə etdim.


2017 həqiqətən boksa daha az, kikboksinqə daha az diqqət ayırmağa başlayanda və daha iki döyüş keçirdiyim vaxt idi, lisenziyasız karyeramda son mübarizə ilə beş millətin başlıqlı döyüşü olan aprel ayında 2017 bu mənim qeydimi gətirdi 4-0-0.


Boks karyeramın o zaman bitdiyini düşünürdüm, Paul Peers Orkneyə köçənə qədər 2018 Facebook üzərindən əlaqə qurdum və sonra boksuma böyük maraq göstərdiyinə və idmana olan sevgimi geri qaytarmağımda böyük bir kömək göstərdiyinə görə məşqlərimi yenidən başlatdı və mənə inandığını göstərdi ki, bu da özümə daha inanan və özümü əldə etdi bu ilin yanvarında peşəkar müqaviləmi imzalamadan əvvəl yenidən düzgün məşqlərə qayıt.


(GDC) Professional boksda 25 Aprel tarixində Orkneydə debüt etməlisiniz, açıq-aydın bu COVID-19 Pandemiya səbəbiylə dəyişdirilir, ilk növbədə hazırlıqlarınız necə gedir??


(CF) Bəli, bütün bunlar başladıqda dağıdıcı idi, amma gündəlik qaçış və evdəki az yerdən istifadə edərək evdəki məşqlərdə bacardığım qədər aktiv olmağı bacarıram..


(GDC) Hökümət əmr verdi ki, kilidləmə hazırlıqlarınıza təsir etdi?


(CF) Kilidlənmədən əvvəl klubda həftədə ən azı bir və ya iki dəfə sparring alırdıq və həftə sonları Orkney Boks Klubları döyüşçülərini özləri ilə qarışdırmaq üçün Aberdindəki Assassin boksunda Lee Mcallister ilə ortaqlığımıza başlamışıq..


Bunu indiyə qədər hava şəraitinin pis olması və qaçmağa əmin olmadığı qayıqlarla bacardıq, ancaq şouya qədər qabaqcadan çox şey planlaşdırırdıq..


(GDC) Kilidləmə bitdikdə və yeni tarix elan edildikdə, rəqibinizin Carly Mackenzie olduğu ifadə edildi, onun haqqında çox şey bilirsinizmi??


(CF) Əvvəlcə Carly Mackenzie ilə döyüşməliydim, ancaq rəqibim bu yaxınlarda Professional Boks Şurasına çevrildi (PBC) Beynəlxalq Gümüş çempionu Jamie Bates Wallis. Dürüst olmaq üçün Jamie haqqında çox şey bilmirəm, amma gördüyümdən güclü bir hücum və kəskin müdafiəyə sahib güclü bir ortodoksal boksçu..


Mübarizənin çətin olacağını bilə-bilə mübarizə apardım, xüsusən də ilk döyüşüm geri döndü 3 il.
Çempion olduğunu sübut etdi, buna görə çempion olmağım üçün çempionları məğlub etməliyəm.


(GDC) Bu günə qədər karyeranızdan uzaqlaşmaq, ən sevdiyiniz boksçu kimdir, kişi və ya qadın, və niyə?


(CF) Bu günə qədər ən çox sevdiyim boksçu Katie Taylor olmalıdır. Qadın boksunun bugünkü vəziyyətinə gətirilməsində böyük rol oynadı və oradakı hər hansı bir idmançı üçün əsl ilham verdi, çünki həqiqətən bir şey istəsəniz hər hansı bir maneənin öhdəsindən gələ biləcəyini göstərdi..


(GDC) Eyni damarda, hər zaman sevdiyin döyüşdür, və niyə?


(CF) Favori bir döyüş seçmək çox çətindir, amma Katie Taylor-un Christina Linardatou ilə son döyüşü olmalı, çünki qalib gəlmə rekordunu davam etdirdi və artan uğurlar siyahısına WBO Super-Lightweight dünya çempionu adını əlavə etdi. Ümumiyyətlə Taylor döyüşə qapılırdı, atəşdən sonra atəş. Lakin o, bu dəfə zahiri boksu kənarda saxladı və enerjisini boşa vermədi.


(GDC) Suallarımı cavablandırmaq üçün vaxt ayırdığınız üçün təşəkkür edirəm, nəhayət, ilk debütünüzlə əlaqədar qeyd etmək istədiyiniz kimsə var??


(CF) Sponsoruma təşəkkür etmək istəyirəm, Gary Sutherland, GSRI-də, Steven Logie at Güc 101 məni formada saxladığım üçün və Paul Peers son bir il yarımda etimadımı bərpa etmək və boks sevgimi yenidən canlandırmaq üçün etdiyi hər şeyə görə. Həm də Nemesis kikboksinq Akademiyasındakı və Nemesis Boxing Gym-dəki bütün köhnə komanda yoldaşlarıma bir səs vermək istərdim ki, onlarsız bu günkü yerimdə olmazdım.

Unbeaten Mykquan Williams staying in boxing shape as much as possible under pandemic conditions

MANCHESTER, Conn. (Mart 23, 2020) – Like most professional boxers, unbeaten super lightweight prospect“Marvelous” Mykquan Williams (15-0-1, 7 Kos) is making the most out of a challenging situation, as he prepares for his unknown future in boxing.

The coronavirus has shutdown boxing worldwide. Events are suspended indefinitely, boxers restricted in terms of training, and the immediate future remains tenuous at best.

Unable to train at his gym, Manchester ROCS, which is closed due to a Connecticut state order, the 21-year-old Williams is handling this pandemic in a mature manner that belies his young age. No whining, no ‘poor me’ feelings.

”This is a difficult time for everybody, including those of us in boxing,” East Hartford (CT) resident Williams said. “There’s no boxing on TV, nobody can compete, and everybody is isolated. It’s just unfortunate, but I’d rather be safe than sorry. Health concerns are and should always be the top priority.”

Williams hasn’t been in action since last October 24th, when he fought to a questionable eighth-round majority draw withTre'sean Wiggins, in which Williams retained his World Boxing Council (WBC) Amerika Birləşmiş Ştatları (USNBC) super lightweight title. Most observers felt that Williams deserved a win by decision.

Since the beginning of 2020, Williams had been training for an expected fight in the first third of the year, and he’s still training to stay in shape, albeit it not the same way as if he had a confirmed fight date.

“I’m still doing some training,” Williams explained. “I need to stay in shape for when the call comes after boxing returns. I’m in decent shape and when I get my next fight date, I won’t have to go from zero to get ready. I want to maintain 50 qədər 60 percent shape and then finish off training on schedule for my next fight.”

“I know Mykey has still been running,” Williams’ head trainerPaul Cichon added. “We’re going to be back training soon. I believe everything happens for a reason. Mykey and me had a conference call with (müdir) Jackie Kallen və (Promoter) Lou DiBella, and we trust that, as soon as possible, Mykey will be back in action.”

Because Williams doesn’t turn 22 until this April 6, in addition to already being a pro boxer for nearly four years, his young boxing career figures to resume quicker and stronger than for many older boxers. Losing six months shouldn’t hinder a prospect like Williams as much as a veteran who may not have nearly as much comparable quality competitive time left in the ring.

“I’m not sure if age is that big an advantage,” Williams countered. “If some fighters were getting burned out because they were fighting a lot, taking time off, whether it’s due to the virus or not, a break may help them come back better and stronger than when they last fought.”

Williams was a five-time national amateur champion, tərtib bir 45-13 həvəskar rekord, highlighted by three Ringside World titles, in addition to gold medal performances at the National PAL and National Silver Gloves championship.

“I don’t know when boxing will return,” Williams concluded, “but boxing will never die. People will always want to see guys punching each other in the face. Boxing is a sport rich in tradition and, indicə, there is still a lot of talent coming up.”

And Mykquan Williams will be right at the head of that next wave when the boxing ban is finally lifted.

40ci anniversary of tragic airplane crash in Poland

22 members of Team USA Boxing perished

COLORADO SPRINGS, Dövrə. (Mart 14, 2020) – One of the darkest days in American sports history occurred 40 years ago today, when Polish Airlines flight #7 that had departed John F. Kennedy Airport in New York City crashed a half-mile from Okecie Airport in Warsaw, Polşa.
 
Bütün 87 passengers died, o cümlədən 14 boxers and eight officials on the USA Boxing team, due to a disintegration of a turbine disc in one of the plane’s engines that ultimately failed.
 
Team USA was traveling to Poland to compete in two international amateur boxing dual events. The average age of the 14 boxers was only 20 ½, ranging from 27-year-old Walter Harris to 16-year-old Byron Payton.
 
The potential Olympic dreams of the 14 boxers were destroyed in the horrific accident. Although most of the boxers were still in their developmental stage, outside of prospective medal challenger Lemuel Steeples, each member aspired to represent the United States in the 1980 Olympic Games in Moscow. (The United States eventually led a boycott of the 1980 Olympics because of the Soviet-Afghan War.)
 
I remember coming home from my boxing gym on March 14, 1980 and hearing the news of the plane crash on the evening news,” stated USA Boxing Executive Director Mike McAtee.
 
As an aspiring Olympic-style boxer I was shocked and felt a sense of loss like every American boxer, coach and official. Today we are reminded that life is precious, and every day is a blessing. On behalf of USA Boxing’s Board of Directors, 48,000 boksçular, coaches and officials and the national office staff we remember the 1980 USA Boxing Team Members and Staff. Please keep them, their families and the worldwide Olympic-style boxing family in your thoughts and prayers.
 
Down But Not OutLost But Not Forgotten

USA Boxing Head Coach Billy Walsh remembers the crash to this day. “I remember it well, as I was a 16-year-old dreaming of the Olympics,” said Walsh. “It was massive news in Europe, a big tragedy with some of the world’s best boxers and staff wiped out. We lost a generation of great fighters, and most importantly loved ones.
 
Patricia Chavis was only seven years old when she learned her father, Sgt. Elliott Chavis, had perished in the crash. She was playing outdoors with friends when she noticed a lot of people crying as they entered and left her home. Her mother called her inside, sat her down with people watching, and said that her father wasn’t coming back because he had been killed in a plane crash.
 
She asked me if I understood and I did, because we had recently lost my great grandmother and paternal grandfather,” an emotional Patricia explained. “I went back outside and told my friends. They were a little older and they didn’t understand why I hadn’t stayed inside with family. It didn’t really hit me that my dad wasn’t coming home until my teenage years. I remember sitting in bed and writing letters to him.
 
Every year still affects me every March. We usually have a family dinner with my mom and grandchildren. They listen to stories about a man they never met. He’s buried in South Carolina and we’ve laid flowers on his grave. Every year on March 14ci it brings back memories and we celebrate his life.
 
Sgt. Chavis, who died at the age of 25, was stationed at Ft. Bragg (N.C.), where he learned to box. O, bir üzvü idi 118ci Military Police Company and during his boxing career, the light heavyweight was All-Army and All-Southeastern.
 
My parents married young,” Patricia continued. “My mom told me he was always athletic. He played football and was a pole vaulter on the track team in high school. But I didn’t know anything about his boxing until we went to a reunion at Ft. Bragg. Around the 30ci anniversary I got in touch with some of his Army buddies when I saw on Facebook that they were having a reunion. I went there with my mom and listened to stories they told me about his boxing career. I found it so interesting because I hadn’t known about that. There are quite a few memorials I’ve seen on Facebook and I try to get in touch with other family members (of her father’s teammates who died in the crash). We’ll never forget!”
