CLARESSA SHIELDS SHARES NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION & PREVIEWS UPCOMING TITLE SHOWDOWN AGAINST IVANA HABAZIN FRIDAY, يناير 10

Undisputed Middleweight Champion Shields Battles Habazin for Vacant WBC & WBO 154-Pound Titles Live on SHOWTIME from

Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, N.J.

MIAMI(يناير 2, 2020) – As the calendar flips to a new decade, undisputed middleweight championClaressa شيلدزshared her New Year’s resolution ahead of her upcoming showdown against former championIvana Habazinfor the vacant WBC and WBO 154-pound titles taking place Friday, يناير 10 live on SHOWTIME from the Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, N.J.

“I really have just one main resolution for the new yearno compromising,قال شيلدز. “That goes for both my personal and professional life. I also want to get closer to God and stay undefeated. I was going to say stop cursing also, but that’s just not happening.”

دروع مقابل. Habazin will open up the 2020 year of big boxing events, with Shields seeking to become the fastest fighter in boxing history, ذكر أم أنثى, to become a three-division world champion.

“I’m very happy to kick off 2020,” said Shields. “Gervonta Davis ended 2019 on SHOWTIME and then the GWOAT brings in the New Year for SHOWTIME in 2020. It’s going to be a great start to the year. I’m coming in with a bang and gunning for the knockout.

“I’m super excited to have Jaron Ennis on the undercard, أيضا. لي, he’s the next Roy Jones Jr. of boxing. He’s slick, he has power, he can box and he’s an all-around dedicated athlete. I look forward to sharing the card with him as a future world champion.”

Shields has trained in Miami with her head coach John David Jackson ahead of her 154-pound debut and has been able to maintain her focus and worked to stay sharp despite the fight’s two postponements.

“I made 154 pounds back in October before the cancellation,قال شيلدز. “After our fight was cancelled, I stayed active and only put on about 10 جنيه. I’ve been down in Florida for the last six or seven weeks. It’s been hard work. I’ve pushed myself and I’m not taking Habazin lightly. I want the knockout because Ivana talks too much. I’m staying focused on being focused, and not letting anyone throw me off by talking nonsense.

“I don’t eat meat anymore. I haven’t in over three months, so my body is more toned now. I actually have a six-pack already with just a little more weight to lose. I think people are going to be surprised at the 154-pound version of me. I’m going to be very strong and very fast because I’ve basically had five months to prepare and to get ready for her specifically.”

Despite training camp taking her through the many holiday events that are gluttonously celebrated by the masses, Shields has stayed disciplined ahead of her opportunity to make more history.

“Balancing around the holidays is something I’ve been doing for years,قال شيلدز. “I saved a lot of money by not going home for Christmas, وهذا أمر مؤكد. But I still spoke with all my family and connected with everyone. I have a very strict diet in camp and I actually trained on Christmas. I consider my diet more of a life plan in general, and I have my days where I’ll splurge, but I stay disciplined.”

Ahead of next week’s event in Atlantic City, Shields plans to unleash and make another statement on her way to another championship-winning performance.

“No matter what she says, this beat down was coming in October,قال شيلدز. “All I’m doing is bringing it to Atlantic City. I’m going to knock her out. I’m going to put down a whole different beat down on her because of the level of disrespect she has shown me. I’m not going to let her be disrespectful towards me and I’m going to knock her out to shut her up.”

The event is promoted by Salita Promotions in association with T-REX BOXING PROMOTIONS.

حول مؤسسة كيان برنس:

تأسست مؤسسة كيان برنس في 2008 في ذكرى كيان برنس, ابن الدكتور برنس البالغ من العمر خمسة عشر عامًا ولاعب كرة قدم موهوب تعرض للطعن في القلب, أثناء محاولة تفريق القتال, خارج بوابات مدرسته. شكلت هذه المأساة المدمرة بداية رحلة لم تغير حياة الدكتور برنس فحسب ، بل زودته أيضًا بالمعرفة والمهارات اللازمة لدعم العائلات والمساعدة في منع حالات مماثلة. في هذه العملية, كان عليه أن يهزم اثنين من أصعب تحديات الحياة - الغضب والانتقام, ابحث عن القوة للتسامح والالتزام باستبدال الغضب بمهارات الحياة الإيجابية.

حول كيان برنس:

كان كيان برينس هو الابن الأول لمارك برينس وتريسي كومبرباتش في 25 نوفمبر 1990.

لقد كان شابًا منفتحًا ومحبوبًا وكان متوافقًا مع الجميع. معلمون, زملائه التلاميذ, فريق كوينز بارك رينجرز لكرة القدم ... في الواقع أي شخص كان على اتصال بكيان اعتبره امتيازًا للقيام بذلك.

في 18 مايو 2006 أصبحت حياة كيان مأساوية, نهاية غير مناسبة وغير ضرورية. الطبيعة المحبة, الذي عُرف به, هو ما جعله يتدخل ويدافع عن صديقه الذي تم اختياره من قبل شاب آخر.

وقع الحادث خارج بوابات مدرسته, أكاديمية لندن, يقع في إدجوير شمال لندن. حاول كيان حل الموقف بأكثر الطرق سلمًا من خلال تحدي المعتدي مباشرة.

القاتل', 16 حنا حسن سنة, شعر أن كيان لم يحترمه لأنه وقف في وجهه. ثم استدار وقتل كيان بقسوة - حيث أغرق السكين مباشرة في صدره. مات كيان من عزباء, لكنها قاتلة, طعنة في قلبه.

كيان, الذي لعب لفريق كوينز بارك رينجرز لكرة القدم تحت 16 عاما. أطلق عليه لقب "الرصاصة" بسبب سرعته وتم الترحيب به باعتباره الشخص التالي واين روني ... الذي من المقرر أن يلعب مع إنجلترا.

كان كيان جميل, وقور, شاب لطيف ومراعاة. . انعكست طريقة حياته في الطريقة التي مات بها ... ربما في الكلمات الأخيرة التي قالها على الإطلاق ...

على الرغم من أنه كان خائفًا جدًا ويتألم ... في وفاته ، كان لا يزال يمثل الحياة التي عاشها. كان قلبه مليئًا بالحب والتعاطف مع الآخرين. في دقائقه الأخيرة كانت أفكاره, حتى ذلك الحين, لا يزال من الآخرين. وبينما كان ينزف ، أخبر أصدقاءه: "إذا كانت هذه هي كلماتي الأخيرة ... قل لأمي أنني أحبها."

عن مارك برنس:

الدكتور مارك برينس هو الرئيس التنفيذي ومؤسس مؤسسة كيان برنس, صدقة يتحملها الألم, معاناة وحزن. من خلال سلسلة من التحديات الشخصية (التشرد, تعاطي المخدرات والكحول والنشاط الإجرامي); انتصارات ومآسي, مارك برنس المعروف آنذاك, طورت رغبة ملحة في دعم الشباب المتورطين في دوامة من العنف الحضري. المأساة المدمرة لمقتل ابنه في 2006 أكد كذلك على أهمية التدخل المبكر في حياة الشاب من أجل منع ما يبدو غالبًا أنه رحلة لا مفر منها إلى اليأس.

التربية والرياضة:

يتمثل جزء كبير من عمل المؤسسة في استهداف الأطفال والشباب في سن الدراسة بدءًا من التعليم الابتدائي وحتى التعليم الثانوي والتعليم العالي, من خلال التوجيه, المهارات الحياتية وبرامج التدريب. كونه ملاكمًا محترفًا حقق ألقابًا مثل بطولة العالم للوزن الخفيف الوزن الثقيل IBF و WBO (1997) وتقاتل من أجل لقب عالمي في 1998, يتمتع الدكتور برنس بمهارات وخبرات لا تقدر بثمن تساعد في تطوير وتحويل حياة الشباب إلى الأبد. تعد سيرته الذاتية "أمير السلام" التي كتبها الدكتور برنس وبول زانون من أكثر الكتب مبيعًا.

التعاون:

مؤسسة كيان برنس هي مشروع شهد تعاون الدكتور برنس مع مجموعة من الأفراد البارزين, المنظمات, وسائل الإعلام, المسؤولين الحكوميين والمشاهير لتسليط الضوء على القضايا الاجتماعية والاقتصادية التي تؤثر على الشباب والأسر على الصعيد الوطني. لقد شارك في إنشاء الفيلم الوثائقي ITV وكان سمة مميزة له, تم عرض فيلم "Put the Knives and Guns Down" على قناة ITV London Tonight Special; عضو اللجنة في حملة "Save Our Streets" التابعة لـ The News of The World; المتحدث الرئيسي في Metropolitan Police Operation Trident Program; والمتحدث الضيف في مؤتمرات مثل, المؤتمر السنوي لجمعية المدعين العامين للتاج الأسود NBCPA والمؤتمر السنوي لجمعية سجن الحاكم الوطنية.

الاعتراف والرؤية:

تقديراً للمساهمة الكبيرة في المجتمع ومكافحة جرائم السكاكين, حصل الدكتور برنس على العديد من الجوائز عن جدارة مثل. جائزة بطل الأطفال من رئيس الوزراء جوردون براون; درجة الدكتوراه الفخرية من جامعة Excel; ومؤخرا في قائمة Queen's New Year Honors (2019) لتلقي OBE.

تتمثل رؤية المؤسسة في الحصول على التمويل / زيادة الإيرادات لتحقيقها#أبطال المستقبل حملة تتضمن إيصال رسائل قوية إلى كل مدرسة في لندن أولاً, مع متحدثين ملهمين يتمتعون بمستوى عالٍ من المؤثرين بين الشباب جنبًا إلى جنب مع الدكتور برنس يشاركهم كيفية الاستفادة من قوة إرادتهم, التعرف على إمكاناتهم, الفردية, هدف, كيف يقدرون أنفسهم, يعود من الشدائد وقوة الإيمان بالنفس, والتي عند فهمها كلها تقود الشباب إلى الابتعاد عن المسدسات والسكاكين وهي مشكلة ذهنية وليست مشكلة سكين..

Here is what the fighters had to say Thursday from Toyota Arena:

TONY هاريسون

I’m hungrier now because of the layoff since the first fight. It hasn’t affected my mindset for one moment. Sparring has been intense for me. That’s where I got the rust off. I was pushed every day with guys trying to knock me out, just like he’s going to try to do.

Nothing about me is fake. Everything I say, I do it. It comes from my heart. The beef between us is real when it comes to my eyes. I don’t like anything about him. The tables turned after what he did right after the first fight. I’m a humble beast and he woke me up.

I trained in Florida because I needed to be hungry again. I made the changes for me. I was out a year and I had to get mentally correct. He woke me up. I didn’t need to be in Detroit, they know I’m the champ. Now I’m ready to beat you again on Saturday.

I had three judges who said I won, so I don’t think I have to change anything in my game plan. انا سعيد. I don’t care about what him and his team is telling him. I don’t have to do anything different.

He had 12 rounds and never rocked me, never stumbled me. He gave me everything he has. The same Jermell that you have seen in every fight is the same you’ll see Saturday.

We’re here once again and once again I’m going to exactly what I have to do. This is what needs to be done to him. I love everything about this. I love everything about the talking, the back and forth, and all the noise.

Jermell knocked out Jorge Cota, so he’s back on top right? I’m going to humble him again, هذا من واجبي. I’m going to ease him of his pain. He acts like he’s the strongest guy in the world, but he’s up against an animal.

I just have to be myself and win again. He can’t handle someone who’s himself. I’m rattling him every five seconds. I just have to throw the 1-2 off of that and we’re good.

JERMELL تشارلو

He talks a lot but he has to see me Saturday night. You’re going to get the same thing I gave to Jorge Cota. He just gave me more time getting out of the fight in June. I’m much stronger, much better and much faster now.

I’m a fighter who lives and learns. I know how to progress. It’s okay for me, because I understand how to go down and come back up. When I come back, I come back way harder. They made the true champ come out of me.

They know he’s not on my level. They know what I possess and what I do. Him not liking me has nothing to do with what I’m going to do Saturday.

Nothing he’s said has gotten under my skin. It’s unbelievable to think that you could get inside another man’s head who gets in the ring and puts it all on the line for this.

He will get what he deserves. I’m a man of my word and everyone knows what I do. I’m ‘Mr. Keep Running Your Mouth.’ هذا ما افعله.

I want to knock him out and I’m going to knock him out. I’m going to set up the right shots. I’m going to set up what he’s not going to see. I’m going to show you how to take the belt.

All I know is that I’m ready to fight. He’s all hype. The only thing fake about him is that injury he put up to get out of the rematch, but we’re here now so its whatever. I’m going to crush him.

EFE AJAGBA

I know he has experience and he’s lost to a few good fighters. I’m going to stick to my game plan and I look forward to showing it to everyone on Saturday night

I have to test him with my jab and see how he reacts. He has movement and has good experience. I’m going to let him get tired and find my spots. لا استطيع الانتظار للحصول على هناك.

We worked really hard in training camp and I know that I’m getting better every day. This is a good test for me and a good opponent who will make me use what we’ve worked on in training.

ياغو كيلادزه

I know that’s he’s a strong young fighter, but he doesn’t have experience like me. I have more fights and more tough fights. I think that he’s going to try to come forward, but I’ve worked really hard to stop him.

I’ve worked on my power and I will show it on Saturday night. I believe in myself and I’m going to show everything I’ve worked on in training camp.

We’re going to take what we’ve been working on in training and bring it into the fight. We know what he’s uncomfortable with and we’re going to take advantage of it.

KARLOS BALDERAS

I’m an Olympian for a reason. I’ve faced the best since I was 15. This is a great opportunity for me and I’m going to make the most of it. He knows what’s coming Saturday night.

I’ve been here before and I’m ready to make a splash. 2020 is my year to shine. I’m ready or the big names. I know what I’m here to do.

He’s a rugged fighter who comes forward and brings the fight. I’m too experienced for him though. في النهاية, my talent is going to speak for itself. We can say what we want up here, but my talent will speak for itself.

RENE TELLEZ GIRON

The only loss I had was a fight I believe I won, but you always learn from a fight. Balderas is a good fighter and I respect him, but he’s in for a war.

I’ve been in tough fights everywhere so I know what it will be like Saturday. He’s quick in the ring and I’ve watched video on him, but it’s nothing that I won’t be able to overcome.

I know what he can do and I know that I have everything I need to get this victory. I’m going to take advantage of this opportunity and I know that we’re going to steal the show Saturday.

THREE UNDEFEATED PROSPECTS IN TOUGH TESTS HIGHLIGHT 250TH EDITION OF SHOBOX: الجمعة الجيل الجديد, يناير 17

Vladimir Shishkin, Shohjahon Ergashev And Ja’Rico O’Quinn in Tripleheader Live on SHOWTIME (10 عصرا. ET / PT) من كازينو WinnaVegas في سلوان, أيوا

His aggressive style and punching power make him a fighter who boxing fans want to see. 2020 will be a big year for both fighters. This series was built on giving young, talented fighters national television exposure and we are excited to get a first look at Ja’Rico O’Quinn, a U.S. amateur standout who is an all-action fighter with high expectations.”



”في يناير 17, boxing fans are going to see some of the best prospects in boxing from big to small,” said promoter Dmitriy Salita. “The card features young, hungry fighters in the super flyweight, junior middleweight and super middleweight divisions. Vladimir Shishkin, Shohjahon Ergashev and Ja’Rico O’Quinn are all undefeated, world-rated fighters on their way to national recognition and world titles. أولا, they have to pass the biggest tests of their careers.”



The 28-year-old Shishkin shined in his United States and ShoBox: الجيل الجديد لاول مرة في شهر أغسطس, registering an eighth-round technical knockout against then once-beaten DeAndre Ware. Standing at 6-foot-1, Shishkin was a standout amateur in Russia where he compiled 301 wins in 330 fights before turning professional in 2016. He has won his last four contests – all scheduled 10 أو 12 round fights – via knockout, بما في ذلك 10عشر round TKO of former world title challenger Nadjib Mohammedi prior to his American debut in October 2018. Currently training in Detroit under Javan “Sugar” Hill, Steward at the new Kronk Gym, Shishkin is looking to continue his ascent up the rankings in the super middleweight division with a second consecutive statement win on ShoBox.



“Training with Sugar Hill at Kronk Gym is going really well, and I can guarantee that I will be ready and I will put my newly learned skills to use,” Shishkin said. “I hope for another emphatic victory that impresses the American boxing fans. I’m looking forward to putting on a great fight and letting the champions at 168 know that this is my year.”



The 30-year-old Sierra, from San Diego, كاليفورنيا., is riding an eight-bout winning streak including a unanimous 10-round decision over Fidel Hernandez for the vacant WBC Silver Super Middleweight Championship in April. The son of former San Diego Padres pitcher Ulises “Candy” Sierra, he has sparred with future Hall of Famers Andre Ward and Canelo Alvarez and former world champion Peter Quillin. Prior to Sierra’s career-best win in April, he won four straight contests in Mexico, بما في ذلك ثلاثة بالضربة القاضية.



“I’m happy for the opportunity to face a good opponent and I’ll use him as a steppingstone to get where I want to get,” said Sierra. “I still have a month of preparation to get into the best shape of my life. I know Shishkin is undefeated and has a Russian amateur pedigree. It’ll be the hardest fight of my career, but I will do anything and everything to come out victorious.”



Hard-hitting super lightweight Shohjahon Ergashev (17-0, 15 كوس), أوزبكستان, is ranked in the top-15 in three of the four major sanctioning bodies. The 28-year-old is coming off an impressive fourth-round knockout of veteran Abdiel Ramirez this past August onShoBox. In his previous appearances on the prospect developmental series, the former member of the Uzbek national team scored a third-round knockout against then top-10 rated Sonny Fredrickson, and a 10-round unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Mykal Fox. The powerful southpaw currently trains alongside stablemate Shishkin in Detroit.



“I am adding new dimensions to my game and plan on making a big statement in the first ShoBox of the year,"قال إرغاشيف. “2020 is going to be my year and I am going to set the tone in my fight with Estrella.”



نجم, who hails from Monterrey, المكسيك, تحولت المهنية في 2010 وفاز 22 consecutive fights before he suffered his first setback in 2015. With just seven of his 33 pro fights going the full distance, Estrella is an all-action fighter typical of his Mexican roots. He earned a career-best win, a closely-contested split decision over Oscar Duarte, في كتابه الامريكية. debut in February. Estrella will face his fourth undefeated prospect in his last five fights as he looks to get his career back on track with a win over the highly-regarded Ergashev.



“This is an opportunity I’m going to take full advantage of,” said Estrella. “I’ve been in camp for the last two months, so I’ll be in perfect shape to go in there and do my thing. I know Ergashev is a southpaw and a hard puncher with a big KO record, but I’ve been in this situation before. I have too much experience for him. Knowing that if I win this fight I could get a world title shot is all the motivation I need.”



The 24-year-old O’Quinn is rated No. 10 في العالم من قبل WBO. Ranked as the No.1 amateur bantamweight in the country compiling a record of 130-18 قبل احترافه في 2015, O’Quinn boasts blazing-fast hands and an ability to throw effortless combinations. A fan favorite in his hometown of Detroit, he was last seen winning a unanimous decision over James Smith of Flint, ولاية ميشيغان., في أكتوبر.



“The time has finally come,” said O’Quinn. “It’s my time to show the world who the king is on live TV. For those that don’t know, يناير 17, I’m going to show the world greatness in is purest form. They are going to see charisma, skills and explosiveness. I know I’m fighting a tough competitor. انه لا يأتي لوضع. I’m coming prepared for war. It’s going to be a great night for boxing in the super flyweight division. I’m putting all the champions on notice.”



فاسكيز, from Reno, نيفادا., is a former streaking prospect in the super flyweight division. After losing his third professional fight, the 5-foot Vasquez rattled off thirteen consecutive wins between 2012 و 2017 and was well on his way to making a name for himself in the division before a unanimous decision loss to once-beaten Ricardo Sandoval in May 2018 halted his momentum. After a year-and-a-half layoff, Vasquez returned by fighting Gilberto Mendoza to a majority draw in October. في 32 سنة, the hungry Vasquez finds himself in a do-or-die fight against O’Quinn.



“Training in Reno is going amazing,” said Vasquez. “It’s such a tremendous opportunity for my life. I’m trying to get to a high ranking and it’s a dream come true. I know O’Quinn is undefeated. He’s a boxer who likes to grab a lot. He doesn’t like pressure. I’m hoping I will tire him out. I think he’ll eventually give in as the fight goes on if I put on a lot of pressure. في الجولات اللاحقة, he won’t even want to come out of his corner.”

فئة 2019



MARK BRELAND

علامة Breland: “I enjoy boxing, it’s a lot of fun. I’m glad to be here because I’ve seen a lot of fighters I grew up with in the amateurs. I enjoy boxing because it kept me off the streets. I wasn’t a street guy., My father would have beaten me up if I had gotten into trouble in the streets. Boxing kept me off the streets, kept me in the gym. I guess I was good at it. I had a fight with a bully when I was 14 and I beat him up. I went to the gym the same day and my coach asked me what happened. My knuckles were shredded with blood. I told him I had a fight in the street. He said you can’t fight in the street. Then I realized boxing and street fighting are two different things.

شيلي فينكل (his manager), when he came into my life, changed a lot of things. Things changed a lot. I focused more on boxing, focused on the Olympic Games, and won championships. Every tournament I went into, فزت, but it was a lot of fun. I wanted to inspire youths. I hope I can inspire some amateurs coming up. To keep going, stay off the streets, and do something that can change your life in a good way., Eddie Futch for life!”



JOE FRAZIER

مارفيس فرايزر(Joe’s son, في الصورة): “It is so good today to speak about my father, what he meant to me, and Joe Frazier always said to me, ‘There’s no right way to do wrong, no wrong way to do right.’ هو قال, if you don’t do right, you’re going to smell this, putting his left fist right to my nose. When it was time for me to do bad, it wasn’t me, wasn’t Marvis Frazier. هكذا, اليوم, I’m still smelling it even if he’s not here.

I just love to talk boxing. As an amateur I was 46-1 and then when I turned pro, I beat the guy who had knocked me out. I love my father. He was a good guy and a champion. I know everybody know Muhammad Ali and I know everybody know ‘SmokinJoe Frazier.



AL MITCHELL

آل ميتشل:I got rid of anybody over 16 who didn’t want to go to school. I’ve been doing this the longest time and I want to thank the coaches. I had three or four who didn’t care about boxing, but they wanted their kids to get an education. Izzy Acosta is one. I got a perfect record at Marquette High, they’ve all graduated. I have four kids with master’s degrees, لدي 14 who have degrees, and four guys who are policemen and no way they should be policemen. أنا المباركة.

Old coaches would tell one you’re only as good as your memories. It’s crazy with kids 14, 14, 15. I had a kid named Vernon Forrest, a four-time world champion., It’s not just about boxing. It’s getting an education and after ten years they have a good life. I want to thank you all for putting me in the Hall of Fame.




Michael Rodgers (Ray’s son): “أولا, I want to apologize for my father for not being here. He hurt his back over the weekend working a boxing match, believe it or not, and he apologizes for not being here.

I want to thank USA Boxing and the Alumni Association for recognizing my father for this award. And when he heard about this, he said he didn’t do any of these things during the 72 years he’s been in the sport for awards. He just did what he did for the love this sport and he did what needed to be done.

USA BOXING ALUMNI ASSOCIATION



مايك مكاتي, مدير تنفيذي, الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية للملاكمة (في الصورة): “On behalf of the Board of Directors, President Tyson Lee, I can only say thank you, شكرا, and thank you. هذه الليلة, is a culmination of work between our members, our alumni association, but I have to recognize a couple of people. This great event wouldn’t be done without Chris Cugliari, Al Valenti and Nicole Anderson, our Alumni Association Coordinator.

I have the honor of talking about boxing and obviously we have passion. When Marvis Frazier said this was a brotherhood, a sisterhood, and none of us, quite frankly, who’ve stepped in the ringI include myself in thatwe’re not right. Takes a special person to climb in the ropes. You all can give yourselves a hand for not being right.

USA Boxing is proud of our history, but more proud of our future, and I can tell you the young men and women battling at the elite levels, we started at 104 and that will be taken down to 13 by Sunday evening. لكن, أكثر أهمية, we’re going to be breeding the next generation of champions, because this is closing the chapter of 2020, but starting the chapter of 2024, and ultimately, when the Olympic Games comeback here in 2028. This is a special time.



كريس tofflemire, مدير تنفيذي, رابطة خريجي الملاكمة USA: “Three years ago a group of us sat around a table in Kansas City at the National Championships and this idea was hatched: جون براون, في فالنتي, جون سكالي, Christy Halbert, Mike McAtee and a few others. هكذا, it’s something I’m very proud of and an organization I’m proud to lead with the support of all of you.

A quick update of the Alumni Association, we’re at about 1200 members right now and this is our third year. We had events across the country the past year, honoring Micky Ward and Vinny Pazianza in the New England area. We gathered in Chicago. We honored Izzy Acosta at the Junior Olympics in Wisconsin, as well as Buster Douglas and coach Mike Stafford at the Ohio Legends celebration, and here we are today honoring our third Hall of Fame class. We’ve come a long way. Our theme in 2020 is two missions: أولا, we want to take this down to the grassroots level, second is supporting our athletes and their families as they travel to the 2020 Olympic Games.



في فالنتي, Special Projects Consultant for USA Boxing: “USA Boxing is the one fundamental difference that makes a difference in a young person’s life. The path to self-confidence, the path to self-respect, انضباط, فوز, and how to accept defeat all comes through amateur boxing.

“هذه الليلة, the story will be told. هذه الليلة, we will take you on a path, of amateur boxing in the United States that rivals no other nation. Gold medalists, silver medalists, المدربين, مسؤولون, الأطباء…they’re all here. It’s like Woodstock for boxing; everybody’s here!”



آل بيرنشتاين, Master of Ceremonies: “I’m delighted to be back here for my third year at USA Boxing’s Alumni Association Hall of Fame. I hosted a lot of events, MC’d a lot of events, and this is the final event because it’s in the end of December. It’s definitely my favorite.

ET / 6 مساءا. PT.

García’s blend of power and sublime boxing skills has made him one of the most popular boxers of the last decade and secured him as a box-office fixture at Barclays Center, where he holds the record for the largest crowd for a boxing event. He set the benchmark when 16,533 attended his welterweight title unification match against Keith Thurman on March 4, 2017 in a bout that aired in primetime on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING on CBS. The fight against Redkach will be Garcia’s eighth appearance at Barclays Center.

“Barclays Center fan-favorite Danny García is back in Brooklyn as he continues his quest for the top spot in the welterweight division,قال توم براون, رئيس الترقيات TGB. “Danny has been in the biggest fights at Barclays Center and on January 25 there are sure to be fireworks when hard-hitting Ivan Redkach looks for a career-defining win. Redkach has upset the odds before and there’s no doubt he’ll leave it all in the ring with this opportunity to move closer to a world title fight. Combined with a former unified champion known for action fights in Jarrett Hurd, plus a rising star in Stephen Fulton, this card is loaded with intrigue from top to bottom.”

“Danny García and Jarrett Hurd are two of the biggest stars in the sport because they have consistently taken on the toughest challenges and they are always in all-action, exciting fights,"وقال ستيفن اسبينوزا, رئيس الرياضة & البرمجة الحدث, Showtime Networks Inc. “On January 25, both men are fighting to maintain their place at the top of two of boxing’s deepest divisions in important, must-win fights.

The Fulton vs. Khegai bout is promoted in association with Salita Promotions.

García (35-2, 21 كوس) is the latest in a long line of great boxers from Philadelphia who have made their mark on the sport. His run through the super lightweight division and two-year reign as a unified champion is one of the most impressive in modern history as he defeated a string of champions, including Nate Campbell, كيندال هولت, اريك موراليس, Amir Khan, الزاب يهوذا ولوكاس Matthysse.

After dominating the super lightweight division, the 31-year-old García moved up to welterweight where he won the vacant WBC title with a unanimous decision over Robert Guerrero in 2016. He lost a split decision to Thurman in a unification match in 2017 and dropped a narrow unanimous decision to Shawn Porter for the WBC title in 2018. García and many pundits thought he won both those matches. في معركته الأخيرة, García scored a spectacular knockout victory over Adrian Granados on April 20 to get back into position to regain the welterweight crown.

“I’m very excited to be headlining another SHOWTIME card and to go back to Barclays Center, my home away from home,” said García. “I can’t wait to step in the ring in Brooklyn and give fans the Danny García show. I watched a few of Redkach’s recent fights and he had a great knockout win over two-time champion Devon Alexander. هكذا, I know he’s a tough fighter and competitor who I expect to bring the best out of me, and he’s someone who deserves this opportunity. But January 25 is tax season, so I’m going to have to tax him and pay him with a reality check.”

REDK (23-4-1, 18 كوس) has his sights set on winning a welterweight title and will face the toughest challenge of his career when he steps in against Garcia. The 33-year-old Redkach, who was born in Shostka, Ukraine and now lives in Los Angeles, is accustomed to stern tests. He started boxing as an amateur in Ukraine where he had over 300 المعارك. When he turned professional he traveled to Mexico to train and develop the “Mexican Style’’ – a style that emphasis standing in the pocket and throwing hard shots to the body.

Things started out slowly for Redkach, but soon he began to hold his own in Mexico and prevailed, earning the nickname “El Terrible’’ from his training partners. Redkach won 14 من له أولا 18 professional fights by stoppage and has won three in a row, including most recently knocking out former world champion Devon Alexander in June.

“I’m very motivated to take a massive step in my career and get closer to becoming world champion against a strong and accomplished fighter like Danny García,” said Redkach. “I have been to a lot of Danny’s fights and now I get the chance to test myself against him. I am training very hard so that I am the best that I have ever been on January 25. I’m going to shock the boxing world just like I did against Devon Alexander. I’ve never been this hungry before and I’m confident I will win this fight.”

The former WBA and IBF champion at 154-pounds, هيرد (23-1, 16 كوس) returns to action for the first time since losing his belts via decision against Julian Williams in one of 2019’s best fights. The 29-year-old from Accokeek, Maryland captured his first title by stopping current WBC titlist Tony Harrison in 2017 and then added the WBA belt by defeating Erislandy Lara in 2018’s consensus Fight of the Year. Hurd earned his title opportunity by going on a run of knocking off unbeaten fighters including Frank Galarza and Oscar Molina, and also owns a successful title defense against Austin Trout at Barclays Center in 2017.

“Just because I fell back, doesn’t mean I fell off,” said Hurd. “I’m back and excited to fight at Barclays Center for the third time. I’m bringing the storm back on January and I’m going to make a statement everyone is going to see. You’re not going to want to miss this fight and the best Jarrett Hurd anyone’s seen.”

سانتانا (25-7-1, 12 كوس) has taken on the toughest challenges at 154 و 147 pounds and has made his name with an all-action action style throughout a long career as a contender. The 33-year-old will look to bounce back from a close decision loss to Abel Ramos in March, in a fight where Santana dropped Ramos in the second round. Prior to the setback against Ramos, the Santa Barbara, California native was coming off of a victory over Olympic gold medalist Felix Diaz in April 2018. Santana has faced former champions Jermell Charlo and Sadam Ali while also owning a six-round draw against Julian Williams in 2011.

“This is a great opportunity for me against a fighter like Jarrett Hurd,” said Santana. “When you get an opportunity like this, it’s hard to turn it down. My job is to rise to the occasion and have the best moment of my career on fight night. هذا هو السوبر بول الخاص بي. When I last fought at 154-pounds, I was basically self-trained. Now I have my coach Joseph Janik training me and I really think he’s the missing piece of the puzzle for me. I’m going to go in there and leave it all in the ring January 25.”

The 25-year-old Fulton (17-0, 8 كوس) has made a rapid rise through the super bantamweight ranks with superb boxing skills, befitting a slick fighter from Philadelphia. Lately Fulton has shown flashes of power that have caught his opponents off guard. In his last fight he stopped Isaac Avelar with a body shot to end their fight in the fifth round on August 24.

Fighting out of Odessa, Ukraine and training for this fight in Los Angeles, Khegai (16-0-1, 10 كوس) will make his third start in the U.S. في يناير 25, after a successful U.S. debut in in May 2018 when he defeated Adam Lopez on the prospect developmental seriesShoBox: الجيل الجديد. The 27-year-old has already been victorious twice in 2019, stopping Haidari Mchanjo in March and most recently winning a unanimous decision over Vladimir Tikhonov in August onShoBox.
