ПРЕС-РЕЛІЗ

Х'юстон, Техас–Roberson Sports Management з гордістю повідомляє про підписання контракту зі своїм першим бійцем, непереможний легковаговик Фернандо Банч.

Roberson Sports Management належить LaTavia Roberson, який найбільш відомий як оригінальний член R&B група Destiny’s Child, один із світових
найбільш продавані групи всіх часів.

Дев'ятиразовий чемпіон світу Рой Джонс мл. тренує Фернандо Банча. LaTavia хотів підписати винищувач, і її команда почала шукати. Оскільки LaTavia володіє журналом Slugfest, і на початку року написав історію з Роєм. Її партнер Альфред Адамс, Віце-президент Roberson Sports Management, запитав Роя, чи знає він про якісь майбутні перспективи. Рой сказав, що в нього є хтось, на кого ЛаТавія повинен подивитися. Адамс відразу звернув увагу на швидкість і силу Банча.

Фернандо Банч народився як Фернандо Паркс, але в 2010 вони з батьком вирішили взяти прізвище батька, і він змінив це. Фернандо народився в Бірмінгемі, Алабама, і є 27 років. Його зріст 5 футів 11 футів і вага 130-135 фунтів. Він наймолодший із 5 брати. Він має близько 120 аматорських боїв під його поясом. Обоє його батьків богобоязливі і виховувалися в баптистській церкві на горі Голгофа. Фернандо закінчив
Середня школа Хефзіба в 2009 на вершині свого класу. В даний час, він останній час працює спеціалістом технічної підтримки в T-Mobile 5 роки. Він має 2 дочки, 7-річна донька на ім'я Мія Армані та 8-місячна дочка на ім'я Міліана Пелеа. Вони обидва - його гордість & радість і його причина, чому він так наполегливо прагне бути успішним у своїй боксерській кар'єрі та в житті.

Фернандо почав займатися боксом 2001, в якому був перехід з тхеквондо через дискваліфікацію за нав'язливе використання ударів. В основному, він кинув, тому що його більше цікавили удари руками, ніж ногами. Протягом перших років боксу він вигравав державні та обласні юнацькі Олімпійські ігри, Срібні рукавички, Золоті рукавички, і змагався в національних золотих рукавичках, Огаста Національний Рингсайд Класика, Національний титул Пол Мерфі, і США
Чемпіонати. Він також воював у в 2015 Олімпійські змагання в Колорадо-Спрінгс, а також у Філадельфії. У розпал усіх цих турнірів, його тренер виїхав на 2 & 1/2 тури по Іраку. Отже, відсутність його тренера призвела до того, що він втратив багато можливостей взяти участь у багатьох національних турнірах. Фернандо отримав досвід у своїй кар'єрі аматорського боксу, тренуючись із чемпіонами світу, такими як Ерісланді Лара та брати Шарло, але він також навчався у великих людей, таких як Ронні Шилдс, Пол Вільямс і тепер зі своїм головним тренером Великим Роєм Джонсом-молодшим.

Фернандо має потенціал, щоб зробити величезну кар'єру професійного боксу. Він завжди готовий вчитися, і дуже вірить у вислів “День, коли ти перестаєш вчитися, це день, коли ти перестаєш одужувати.” Станом на зараз, Фернандо є 9-0 як професіонал с 5 Нокаутує та тренується з Роєм Джонсом-молодшим у Пенсаколі, Флорида.

Майбутня мета Фернандо — відкрити некомерційний боксерський зал і програму для молоді в своєму районі міста. (Південна сторона) в Августі, Джорджія. На додаток, він хоче заснувати постійний фонд, який постачатиме шкільне та гігієнічне приладдя для молоді перед кожним шкільним семестром. Він також зацікавлений у започаткуванні програми для молодих чоловіків щодо того, як претендувати на роботу, вести себе на співбесідах, як приймати зрілі рішення та
маніфестувати цілі.

Нова доля ЛаТавії Роберсона в боксі

Жовтень 29, 2019 FNU47 Залишити коментар

Х'юстон, Техас–LaTavia Roberson is best known as the co-founder of the R&B hit group Destiny Child, one of the world’s best-selling girl groups of all time. Roberson has sold over 25 million records with Destiny’s Child. Her work has earned her several awards and nominations, including two Grammy Awards, three Soul Train Music Awards and eight Billboard awards.

LaTavia is the newest face to step into the world of boxing. Her successful entertainment career has provided her with a wealth of knowledge and brings management skills of the highest level to the next generation of boxers. She has had a love and passion for boxing since she was a little girl.

“My business partner Alfred Adams called me about this. I used to sit at home and watch boxing with my father and Grandmother. I love the sport, and I am excited to be involved in it,” said Roberson.

“This makes sense for me because I have always been a fighter myself. Maybe not in the ring, але і в житті. I want to represent people who want to fight, and have those same kinds of qualities.”

She has partnered with longtime friend and business partner Alfred Adams. Adams is a retired venture capitalist. “When the idea came to mind, I wanted to make sure we would put the very best people in place to give the fighters the best management team possible.” Adams said. Roberson has done that without question.

Roberson added, “I want to be a mother-figure to my boxers. I have a great team in place led by Alfred, and I want to nurture these athletes. I don’t want anyone to screw them over. I have learned that when you are poorly managed, the results won’t be up to par, and I want to make sure our fighters get the utmost care.”

From a sponsorship stand-point Adams called long-time friend Randy Jackson from the rock band Zebra to help facilitate this process for their fighters. Adams and Roberson knew at this point they had the right front office people in place to make the best possible decisions for their fighters.

Roberson has two boxing training locations one in San Antonio, TX under the headship of two-time world champion Jesse James Leija and one in New Orleans, LA called Uppercuts Boxing Gym under Valrice “Whop” Cooper owned by Darrick Stewart. “Whop” is best known as one of Roy Jones, Jr.’s trainers. Roberson also secured 8-time Mr. Olympia Lee Haney who is best known for working with Evander Holyfield as strength and conditioning coach and dietitians.

“I want to be a household name in the boxing world, and I want to manage world class and world champion fighters. I feel with the infrastructure that we have in place, that will become a reality in the very near future,” Concluded Roberson.

ERICKSON LUBIN WINS DOMINANT DECISION OVER NATHANIEL GALLIMORE SATURDAY ON SHOWTIME FROM SANTANDER ARENA IN READING, Пенсільванія.

**Роберт-молодший Пасха. Earns Decision Over Adrian Granados in Super Lightweight Debut & Rising Heavyweight Frank Sanchez Remains Unbeaten**

**Натисніть ОСЬ для фото з Амандою Westcott / SHOWTIME**
**(Photos to be added shortly)**

**READING, Пенсільванія**. – Жовтень, 27, 2019 – Top super welterweight contender **Еріксон Любін** continued his resurgence with a dominant 10-round unanimous decision victory over Натаніель Gallimore Saturday night on SHOWTIME from Santander Arena in Reading, Пенсільванія.

Любін (22-1, 16 КО) won his fourth straight fight since a knockout loss to Jermell Charlo in a title challenge in 2017. The 24-year-old landed 42 percent of his power shots en route to the wide decision, забив 99-91 усіма трьома суддями.

The southpaw relied on a suburb left hook, attacking from a variety of angles against the durable Gallimore (21-4-1, 17 КО) as he improved to 4-0 since beginning to train with southpaw specialist Kevin Cunningham.

“I had a tremendous training camp thanks to Kevin Cunningham,” Lubin said. “At first we had Terrell Gausha but he fell out due to his injury. I appreciate Gallimore for stepping up to the plate. He gave me a tough fight and I appreciate it. We gave the fans what they wanted. I measured him. I just timed him and I was able to land my power shots.

“Kevin is a real strict trainer and he’s a southpaw specialist. We’re just improving our game every camp. I definitely want Jermell Charlo again. My goal is to get revenge.”

Cunningham was pleased with his pupil, who was pushed past the fifth round for the first time in more than three years.
“He’s always been a hell of a fighter and I just wanted to fine tune and refine the skill set,” Cunningham said. “He can do everything that you can teach. He’s the total package. He’s got power, he’s got speed, he’s got footwork. He’s more than a brawler. He’s a skillful fighter with power.

“He’s ready for all the top guys in the division. The guys with belts are what he wants.”

Former lightweight world champion **Роберт Пасха, Молодший.** was victorious in his debut at super lightweight, winning a unanimous decision over **Адріан Гранадос** in an all-action fight scored 97-93, 98-92, 100-90.

Великодній (22-1-1 14 КО), who lost his lightweight title in a unification with Mikey Garcia in 2018, was matched for his first fight a super lightweight against one of boxing’s most aggressive, come-forward fighters and the result did not disappoint. Granados charged forward from the opening bell, pressing on the inside against his rangy, 5-foot-11 opponent. In the first half of the fight, Easter pocketed rounds while fighting from a distance, leaning on his speed to win the first four rounds on all three judges’ системи показників. But the fight seemed to change tides at the midway point, with Granados able to force the bout to be contested at close range. Rounds seven through 10 featured tremendous, back-and-forth exchanges and the more active Granados seemed to get the better of the exchanges.

The fighters combined to throw 1,815 combined total punches and 1,379 combined power punches across 12 раундів.

“We knew he was going to be a hell of a warrior in there,” Easter said. “That’s what we train for. This was no ordinary opponent and we knew he was going to bring it. I wasn’t surprised because that’s what he does. You’ve seen him fight with the best of the best and he threw down. I knew he was going to throw punches in bunches.

“This was a hell of a test for me at 140 and I felt strong. I’m not calling out anybody specifically, but you know there are champions in this weight class and I’m coming for all the belts. Line ’em up.”

One of boxing’s most reliable action fighters, Granados (20-8-2, 13 КО) threw more punches and connected more and was once again frustrated with a decision that did not go his way.

“I’m speechless. I felt like I won the fight,” Granados said. “That 100 для 90? Come on now.

“I’m tired of the same old story. It was clear that I controlled the fight. He never had me hurt. That was embarrassing.

“I can’t control the judging. It’s very frustrating. I have a dream to be a world champion and it just seems like it’s not cutting out for me. But I have the heart of a champion and I’m not giving up.”

У першому бою телепередачі, undefeated Cuban heavyweight **Frank Sanchez**pitched a shutout against **Джек Муловей**, winning a 10-round unanimous decision scored 100-90 усіма трьома суддями.

Санчес (14-0, 11 КО) was the more active fighter from the opening bell, targeting the body against the defensive-minded Mulowayi (7-2-1, 3 КО). The 27-year-old Sanchez, who was taken the 10-round distance for the first time, threw over 250 more punches than his opponent.

“My opponent didn’t really want to fight, he just wanted to fight dirty,” Sanchez said. “So all I could do was give him some lateral movement. It’s difficult when someone doesn’t want to engage. We wanted to touch him down, touch him up high. But once he got touched, the guy just tried to tie up.

“There was no problem going 10 раундів. I’m in great shape and I’m ready to fight again as soon as possible. I showed my technical superiority tonight. All the heavyweights better watch out.”

Two-time super featherweight world champion Gervonta “Бак” Davis was interviewed during Saturday’s telecast as he continues to train for his lightweight debut December 28 on SHOWTIME from State Farm Arena in Atlanta. The explosive Davis, who will fight Yuriorkis Gamboa for the WBA Lightweight World Championship, continued to call out the top fighters when he spoke with host Brian Custer.

“I’ve heard all these guys calling me out, I don’t want to sound cocky, but I am the cash cow at this weight class,” Davis said. “Me and Leo Santa Cruz are going to fight in 2020.”

Saturday’s SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION tripleheader will replay on Monday at 10 p.m. ET/PT на SHOWTIME EXTREME.

An industry leading production team and announce crew delivered all the sights, sounds and drama from Santander Arena. Veteran broadcaster Brian Custer hosted the telecast, versatile combat sports voice Mauro Ranallo called the action ringside alongside Hall of Fame analyst Al Bernstein and former two-division world champion Paulie Malignaggi. Three Hall of Famers rounded out the SHOWTIME telecast team – Emmy^® нагородами репортер Джим Грей, unofficial ringside scorer Steve Farhood and world-renowned ring announcer Jimmy Lennon Jr. The Executive Producer of SHOWTIME BOXING: SPECIAL EDITION was David Dinkins, Молодший. and the Director was Bob Dunphy.

Undefeated WBC Middleweight World Champion Jermall Charlo Defends Against Highly-Ranked Contender Dennis Hogan in Main Event

Бруклін (Жовтень 23, 2019) – Middleweight starChris Eubank Jr.і головний претендентMatt Korobovwill square off in the co-main event on Saturday, Грудня 7 живуть на SHOWTIME з Barclays Center, будинок BROOKLYN BOXING ™, in a Premier Boxing Champions event. Eubank and Korobov will meet for the Interim WBA Middleweight Title.

The middleweight division will take center stage on the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast (9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT) that is headlined by undefeated WBC Middleweight World ChampionJermall Charlo defending his title against highly-ranked contenderДенніс Хоган.

Eubank is coming off a career-best win over British super middleweight rival James DeGale in February on SHOWTIME and will go down to the 160-pound class to take on Korobov, a southpaw who gave Charlo a tougher than expected test as a late replacement last December at Barclays Center.

Квитки на турнірі, which is promoted by Lions Only Promotions and TGB Promotions, are on-sale now and can be purchased atticketmaster.com іbarclayscenter.com. Tickets also can be purchased at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center. Групові знижки можна за телефоном 844-BKLYN-GP.

“Chris Eubank Jr. проти. Matt Korobov is a high stakes showdown that makes Saturday, Грудня 7 a tremendous night of championship middleweight action live on SHOWTIME at Barclays Center in Brooklyn,»Сказав Том Браун, Президент TGB Акції. “Chris Eubank Jr. is already a star in the U.K. and is poised to make a big splash in his U.S. дебют, while Matt Korobov is eager to build on his impressive performance in a loss to Jermall Charlo last year. Expect fireworks as Eubank and Korobov look to steal the show and walk away the title on December 7.”

This will be the first time that Eubank (28-2, 21 КО) has fought in the U.S. як професійний. Although he has competed at super middleweight, the 29-year-old from Brighton, Sussex in the United Kingdom will meet Korobov at his more natural weight of 160 pounds for the interim title. Since losing to George Groves in 2018, the son of British legend Chris Eubank Sr. has put together two victories, including the decisive unanimous decision over former super middleweight champion DeGale in his last fight in London.

“I’m ready to take the United States and the middleweight division by storm,” said Eubank. “I’m excited to come down to 160 pounds where I naturally belong, and I don’t see anybody being able to touch me at this weight class. America is where I learned how to fight as an amateur in Las Vegas and 13 years later I’m finally going to make my U.S. professional debut. I can’t wait to show the fans in the U.S. that I’m the best middleweight in the world.”

The 36-year-old Korobov (28-2-1, 14 КО) is coming off a majority draw against Immanuwel Aleem in his last fight in May, after serving notice to the middleweight division that he would be a threat when he lost a hard-fought decision to Jermall Charlo in December. Born in Orotukan, Russia and now living in St. Петербург, Флорида, Korobov was a late replacement and gave Charlo a tougher fight than many experts expected. Korobov had been riding a four-fight win streak before the Charlo fight, having previously lost a middleweight title fight to Andy Lee in 2014.

“I am more motivated for this fight than any other so far in my career,” said Korobov. “Against Jermall Charlo, I didn’t get the decision. В моїй голові, I won that fight at Barclays Center. Цього разу, I will leave no doubt against Eubank. This opportunity gives me a chance to right a wrong. Fans will see the best Matt Korobov on December 7.”

“With these two all-action matchups added, the November 23 card is shaping up to deliver another memorable night of excitement on FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View,” said Tom Brown, Президент TGB Акції. “In addition to the Wilder vs. Ortiz rematch and the Santa Cruz vs. Flores title fight, one of the 122-pound division’s hottest young stars Brandon Figueroa will make his first title defense against a very tough opponent in former champion Julio Ceja. Rounding out the night is Mexican knockout artist Luis Nery and tough former champion Emmanuel Rodríguez, who will be sure to kick off the pay-per-view in style with another classic in the Mexico vs. Puerto Rico rivalry.”

Квитки на заходи, which is promoted by BombZquad Promotions, TGB Promotions and Mayweather Promotions, are on sale now and can be purchased atwww.mgmgrand.com абоwww.axs.com.

The 22-year-old Figueroa (20-0, 15 КО) will look to make the first defense of his super bantamweight championship in his fourth fight of 2019. He knocked out Moises Flores in January on FS1 and won an interim super bantamweight title in April on FOX by stopping Yonfrez Parejo. Representing Weslaco, Техас, Брендон, the younger brother of former world champion Omar, has a seven-fight knockout streak that he brings into the ring on November 23, having most recently stopped Javier Nicolas Chacon with an exciting fourth-round knockout in an FS1 main event in August. He was subsequently elevated to full champion by the WBA.

“This is probably going to be the biggest test of my career in the first defense of my title against a solid fighter like Ceja,” Саїд Фігероа. “To be fighting on pay-per-view of the Wilder-Ortiz II undercard at MGM Grand is a dream come true. I’ve been working towards this moment my whole life. I attended Pacquiao vs. Thurman in July and the crowd was electric that night. I told myself while watching that fight ringside that I couldn’t wait to fight at MGM on a similar card, and now look at where we are. Ceja might have lost against Rigondeaux, but he put on a great fight and I know he’s going to come forward and brawl with me on November 23.”

Fighting out of Tlalnepantla, Мексика, Брова (32-4, 28 КО) will look to rebound from a loss to Guillermo Rigondeaux on FOX in June, when he was stopped in round eight while leading on all three judges’ системи показників. The 26-year-old knocked out Hugo Ruiz in 2015 to win an interim title before eventually being elevated to the full champion. While he lost the rematch to Ruiz, Ceja put together wins in two of his next three fights heading into the Rigondeaux bout.

“This is a great opportunity and I plan to win the world title again on November 23,” said Ceja. “I know what it takes to win and I will have the best training of my career for this fight. I hope Brandon Figueroa is prepared for fireworks. This title is coming back to Mexico for my country, my pride and my people.”

Нері (30-0, 24 КО) is a power puncher who has stopped his last 11 противники і 15 з його останніх 16. The 24-year-old southpaw from Tijuana, Mexico will be making his third appearance on a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View this year. He scored a dominant stoppage victory over McJoe Arroyo on the March event in Arlington, Texas and returned on the July 20 show to stop former champion Juan Carlos Payano. He scored a TKO victory over Shinsuke Yamanaka to win the bantamweight world title in 2018.

“I’m excited for another opportunity to perform on the biggest stage and show that I’m the best bantamweight in the world,” said Nery. “Rodríguez is a tough competitor and he will help bring out my best on November 23. Mexico and Puerto Rico have a storied rivalry in this sport and I intend to make my mark in history with a spectacular win.”

The 27-year-old Rodríguez (19-1, 12 КО) will also look to put himself back in position to reclaim a 118-pound belt with a statement win on November 23. Fighting out of Vega Baja, Пуерто-Ріко, Rodríguez won the IBF Bantamweight World Title with a unanimous decision victory over Paul Butler in 2018 and defended it successfully against then-unbeaten Jason Moloney. He most recently was stopped by unbeaten champion Naoya Inoue in their May title bout.

“Switching opponents is no problem for me since we always train for different fighting styles,” said Rodríguez, who had previously been scheduled to face former champion Rau’shee Warren before Warren withdrew due to injury. “My Puerto Rican and Mexican people want to see a great fight and that’s what they will have on November 23. I know what Nery brings to the table and I’m ready for that. We are confident in victory and that in 2020 I will be crowned world champion again.”
