Han passerade på möjligheten att konkurrera för en plats på 2016 OS och, efter vridning professionell i 2015, byggde sitt obesegrad rekord med relativ lätthet genom sin första 17 slagsmål. I 2019, Franklin ökat sin nivå av motstånd i rad slagsmål på Showtime, tjäna ett enhälligt beslut över tidigare Nej. 1-rang U.S.. amatör Rydell Booker i april, följt av en hårdnackad split-beslut över Jerry Forrest i juli. Nu, de sex-fots-2 Franklin avkastning för hans tredje bout av den år söker en avgörande seger för sin hemstad fans.
“Detta är vad jag har väntat på,” Said Franklin. “Jag kan inte vänta med att sätta en show på framför min hemstad med vänner och familj i publiken. Jag har arbetat på min kost och ta bättre hand om min kropp sedan min sista match. Jag fokuserade på att inte slösa något slag och låta knockout komma naturligt, inte skjuta för det.

Sura blev professionell i 2016 och har vunnit 11 av hans första 12 professionella bouts.

De
24-åriga O'Quinn (12-0-1, 8 Kos) står 5 fot 6 och har fått betyget Nej. 13 i
värld av WBO. Blixtsnabba händer och enkel kombination stans har
tillät obesegrade O'Quinn att bli en favorit bland Motor City kamp
fläktar. O'Quinn var No. 1-rankad amatör bantamvikt i landet innan
svarvning professionell i 2015. Han sågs senast april 13 i år på
Boardwalk Hall i Atlantic City, vinna en dominerande enhälligt åtta Ligt
beslut över Minnesota veteran Vicente Alfaro Martinez.
“På
oktober 5 du kan förvänta dig inget mindre än vad jag alltid gör och det är
vinna!” O'Quinn sa. “Detta är den största kampen i mitt professionella
karriär och min första 10-runt kamp och jag tar det på största allvar. jag ska
ser det bästa jag har sett som pro på den natten och efter kampen jag ska vara
söker större namn att ta på i super Mellanvikt division.”
EN 29-åriga stående 5 fot 3, Smith (13-2, 7 Kos) bär ett rykte som en throwback och en av de mest spännande Detroit kämpar för det senaste decenniet. Känd för sin orädda aggression i ringen, Smiths slagsmål är alltid “måste se” biljettpris för Detroiters. Också en skicklig amatör, Smed är en före detta National Amateur Champion och åttatiden Golden Gloves Champion. Hans sista match kom i februari i år på Performance Arts Center i Dearborn, Mich., där han vann ett enhälligt sex-round beslut över Mexikos Jonathan Lecona Ramos.
“Min motståndare är fast, men han är inte på min nivå,” sade Smith. “Han kastar en hel del slag men han slår en hel del. Det är ingenting han kan visa mig att jag inte har gjort redan sett förut. Fans kan alltid förvänta sig en spännande kamp när det kommer till mig. Jag kommer alltid att sätta allt på rad för att vinna.”
“Detroit är en av landets bästa boxningskampstäder och denna kamp är ett exempel på det där,” Said Word. “Ja’Rico utses som en av de bästa amerikanerna super flygvikt, medan James Smith inte kunde missa när han blev professionell. Denna kamp kan visa sig vara nattens kamp eftersom båda killarna kommer att göra det lämna allt i ringen för att vinna. Blir det Ja´Ricos hastighet och tidpunkt, eller kommer James Smith att mala ner honom med sin aggression och tryck? Spelar ingen roll vem vinner, detta blir ett oförglömligt krig.”

BRANDUN LEE TO FACE MILTON ARAUZ IN OPENING BOUT OF SHOBOX: THE NEW GENERATION TRIPLEHEADER FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20 LIVE FROM MIDLAND, TEXAS
USA BOXING HEAVYWEIGHT ADRIAN TILLMAN IN U.S. ARMY
COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (September 3, 2019) – No. 2 rated American heavyweight Adrian Tillman, who is also ranked No. 5 as a light heavyweight, is not only representing his country as a member of USA Boxing’s 2019 Men’s Elite team, he’s also serving in the U.S. Army at the same time.
Tillman, 24, is able to do both, because he’s an active soldier enrolled in the World Class Athlete Program (WCAP), in which qualified athletes have an opportunity to train fulltime for the Olympics.
“As of right now,” Tillman said, “my focus is on the Olympics. I love the military and I love boxing. So, I’ll just see where life takes me. But, as of now, 2020 Tokyo, Japan, is the one thing on my mind.
“Training (in Colorado Springs) with the Elite team has definitely elevated my game all around. The coaches and trainers are always teaching me. It’s a non-stop learning environment with the team.”
Born in Riverside, Kalifornien, Tillman started boxing in 2008, because he wanted to lose weight and learn how to defend himself and his siblings as he was about to enter high school.
The heavyweight with a stiff jab is a three-time National PAL champion (2018, 2017 och 2015), in addition to capturing a gold medal at the 2017 Eastern Elite Qualifier. His greatest accomplishment, emellertid, may be a little surprising, because it isn’t about winning medals, trophies and belts.
“My greatest accomplishment was being able to qualifying two weight classes (lightweight and heavyweight) for the Olympic Trials.”
Tillman has traveled throughout South America and Europe. He is with his Team USA teammates training in England before going straight to Yekaterinburg, Ryssland, to compete in the 2019 Elite Men’s World Championships, September 7-21.
“Gaining a medal at the World Championships is important to me because,” he noted, “not only am I representing my country, I’m also representing the Army and my family.”
When he’s in the ring, Tillman adjusts to his opponent, brawling or boxing equally, whatever it takes to win.
Adrian Tillman is a true patriot who also happens to wear boxing gloves. Whether he qualifies as a heavyweight or light heavyweight, all that matters to him is boxing for Team USA at the 2020 OS.

Quillin (34-1-1, 23 Kos) is seeking to climb back into the championship ranks and must go through Angulo before reaching them. The 36-year-old, who was born in Chicago and now lives in Brooklyn, won the middleweight world title against Hassan N’Dam in 2012. He successfully defended it three times. He is coming off a no-decision against former super middleweight champion Caleb Truax on April 13 in an FS1 PBC Fight Night main event. He had taken the first two rounds on all three judges’ scorecards before the action was halted when a deep cut over Truax’s right eye, caused by an accidental head butt, brought an end to the fight and resulted in a no-decision.
“It looks like the Caleb Truax fight wasn’t meant to be, but this fight against Angulo is an important fight for me to establish myself in this division,” Said Quillin, who was originally scheduled to rematch Truax on August 31, before Truax withdrew due to an Achilles injury. “I’m ready to go 12 rounds right now. I just have to stay ready and stay in shape because we’ve had a great camp where we were able to build on certain things. This is what was meant to be and I’m going to make the most of it with a great performance on September 21.”
Angulo (25-7, 21 Kos) enters the match against Quillin after a knockout victory over Evert Bravo on April 20. The 37-year-old veteran, who was born in Mexicali, Mexico and now lives in Coachella, Kalifornien, has been in with some of the top boxers and sluggers during a career that has seen him in numerous exciting bouts against the likes of Canelo Alvarez and Erislandy Lara amongst others.
“I am looking forward to showing my fans the best Alfredo Angulo on September 21,” said Angulo. “I have been working hard towards this opportunity. This is a chance to move closer to a world title and with hard work and the support of my team, I’m going to win that title.”
Representerande sin hemstad Brooklyn, N.Y., Colbert(12-0, 4 Kos) has begun to make a name for himself showing off tremendous skills across his first 12 pro victories. The 22-year-old turned pro in 2019 after an impressive amateur career and most recently dominated Alberto Mercado on his way to a unanimous decision on FOX in June.
“I’m dedicating this bout to the fight against childhood cancer,” said Colbert, who was inspired after recently being introduced to a young fan who has cancer. “I plan on going in to Rabobank Arena and doing what I do best on September 21. I never make predictions for my fights, but I’m always looking to dominate and if the knockout comes then it comes. I have a job to do and I just have to stay focused on the man in front of me. It’s going to be ‘Prime Time’ september 21 so that fans will want to make sure to tune-in for this one.”
Slåss av Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexiko, Beltran (33-7, 22 Kos) will return to action after dropping a decision to former world champion Yuriorkis Gamboa last November. The 30-year-old challenged Roman Martinez for a super featherweight title and lost by split decision in September 2012.
“I’m very excited for this opportunity to fight Chris Colbert on FS1 and FOX Deportes,” said Beltran. “I have fought the best 130 pounders in the world – Rocky Martinez, Gamboa, Mickey Roman and I have challenged for the world title twice. This is the type of fight I need on national TV to get myself back in contention. I’m very serious about winning and happy to have my training camp in Los Angeles with my cousin, former world champion Ray Beltran, who is helping me prepare for victory.”
Williams (18-0, 13 Kos) extended his unbeaten record in April with a split decision victory over Justin DeLoach in Las Vegas. The 35-year-old from Los Angeles previously won a decision over David Grayton in September 2018.
A longtime contender, Dulorme (24-3-1, 16 Kos) earned a majority draw in his last fight against former world champion Jessie Vargas last October. The 29-year-old had previously dropped a narrow decision to top contender Yordenis Ugas in August 2017. That defeat came after a streak where the Puerto Rican fighter won eight of nine fights, with his only loss during that stretch coming in a title fight against Terrence Crawford.
At just 18-years-old, Ramos (10-0, 9 Kos) scored knockouts in his first nine fights since turning pro last May. The Casa Grande, Arizona-native most recently went the distance for the first time in his pro career, winning a shutout unanimous decision over Kevin Shacks in June on FOX.
Fighting out of Paterson, New Jersey, Edwards (12-3, 3 Kos) won his first 11 pro fights including victories over then unbeaten fighters Azriel Paez and John Delperdang. The 29-year-old most recently lost a decision to undefeated Mykquan Williams in May.

Russia’s Murtazaliev(16-0, 13 Kos), who now resides in Oxnard, California and is unbeaten since turning pro in 2014. The 26-year-old has delivered knockout victories over Elvin Ayala and Bruno Leonardo Romay in 2019.
