COLORADO SPRINGS, Giro. (Maggio 6, 2019) – Pesi medi di boxe USA Troy Isley sta arrivando la vittoria più significativa della sua giovane carriera, quando ha sconfitto il 2016 Medaglia d'oro olimpica, Cuba Arlen Lopez, al recente Pan American Games Qualifier a Managua, Nicaragua.
Lopez è stato un barometro positivo per Isley in termini di potenziale 2020 Corsa olimpica. “Finora battere Lopez è la mia più grande vittoria,” Ammise Isley. “Ha vinto una medaglia d'oro alle ultime Olimpiadi. Ho vendicato la mia perdita a lui in 2017. Abbiamo quasi combattuto in The Continentals, ma ha perso nei quarti di finale, e ho perso in semifinale. Potremmo affrontarci di nuovo a luglio ai Giochi Panamericani.”
In 2017, Isley ha conquistato una medaglia d'oro ai Campionati del mondo Elite, che ha segnato la prima volta per un pugile d'élite americano in sei anni. Ha fatto progressi di anno in anno, prendendo il massimo dei voti al 2012 & 2013 Campionati Nazionali PAL, 2014 Olimpiadi nazionali juniores, 2016 & 2017 Campionati Nazionali Elite. Finora quest'anno, oltre a vincere ai Pan American Games Qualifier, ha vinto anche l'oro allo Strandja Tournament in Bulgaria.
Risultati non troppo squallidi per un ragazzo a cui non piaceva davvero la boxe, soprattutto rispetto al calcio, che era il suo sport preferito da bambino.
“Quando sono tornato in palestra mi sono allenato, Alessandria (VA) Club di boxe,” Assistente allenatore della nazionale USA Kay Koromba ricordato,” avevano bisogno di aiuto con un ragazzino, Troy Isley. Ho avuto una semplice conversazione con lui. Ha detto che sarebbe tornato in palestra se fossi stato lì ad allenare. Non sono tornato per un po 'e lui non è tornato. Alla fine ho preso il controllo della palestra quando l'allenatore se n'è andato, e Troy tornò.
“Troy è amico di Keyshawn Davè (USA Boxing's No. 1-leggero valutato). Entrambi vivono in Virginia (Troia ad Alessandria, Keyshawn a Newport) e allenati con me all'Alessandria Boxing Club, quando non viviamo e non ci alleniamo a Colorado Springs. Hanno combattuto da bambini e sono diventati buoni amici. Tutti gli altri pugili qui li guardano.”
“Avevo solo 8 e all'inizio non mi piaceva davvero la boxe,” l'ormai ventenne Isley ha parlato della sua introduzione alla boxe amatoriale. “Ero più interessato agli sport di squadra come il calcio, ma ho rinunciato alla boxe quando ho scelto di gareggiare nei Box-Off. Volevo solo essere un bambino e tu non puoi giocare a boxe. Sono tornato in palestra e ho picchiato tutti. L'allenatore Kay ha detto a mio padre che poteva trasformarmi in un campione nazionale, e questo mi ha dato molta autostima.”
Un pugile pugile auto-descritto, Isley è intelligente, pugile ben parlato con gli occhi sul futuro, al di fuori della boxe, prendendo corsi di business on-line attraverso la DeVry University. “Posso fare tutto,” ha parlato del suo stile di boxe. “Sto lavorando per usare più colpi per essere un pugile migliore a tutto tondo. Il colpo imposta l'offesa. Sto lavorando al mio jab perché puoi vincere i combattimenti con un jab.”
I promotori si stanno allineando per proporre alle loro società di firmare Isley, chi ha un piano definitivo che prevede la realizzazione del file 2020 Squadra olimpica di boxe USA, medaglia in Giappone, e poi diventa professionista.
“Manca solo un anno alle Olimpiadi,” Notò Isley. “Sono vicino a Keyshawn e Shakur(Stevenson, 2016 Medaglia d'argento olimpica e un 11-0 prospettiva pro). Allenarsi con loro rende le cose più facili per tutti noi. Ci guidiamo a vicenda e ci alleniamo contro stili diversi. Raccolgo sempre cose nuove. Ci aiutiamo a vicenda nella formazione, sparring, e solo parlando. Siamo sempre insieme, sia ad Alessandria che a Colorado Springs. Shakur va ancora lì per un buon sparring.
“Shakur ci racconta molto delle sue esperienze alle Olimpiadi e ora come professionista. Io e Keyshawn abbiamo sempre parlato di stare insieme nella squadra olimpica di boxe degli Stati Uniti. Continuiamo a lavorare sodo e rimanere concentrati. È stato il nostro sogno.”
I sogni si avverano ma, primo, Isley si sta preparando per i Giochi Pan-Am e, possibilmente, il suo incontro di gomma con la medaglia d'oro olimpica in carica, Lopez.

Shows tremendous heart in the face of adversity.
PUNTI DI FORZA

Harrison and Charlo’s first encounter took place live on FOX in December as Harrison earned the decision and upset Charlo to earn the title. The close nature of the bout helped warrant an immediate rematch that promises to be just as highly charged and dramatic.
“Tony Harrison and Jermell Charlo showed off their elite talent to the world in their first bout and I anticipate an even more explosive showdown in the rematch on June 23,” ha detto Tom Brown, Presidente di Promotions TGB. “Harrison will no doubt be at his very best again as he looks to establish himself in the championship ranks. Jermell Charlo is certainly more motivated than ever to reclaim his spot atop the 154-pound division. Fans tuning in on FOX and FOX Deportes in primetime and in attendance at Mandalay Bay Events Center are in for an action-packed Sunday night.”
Harrison (28-2, 21 KO) has proven to be “Detroit tough” during a boxing career inspired by early years trained and managed by the late Emanuel Steward. He had to climb back into title contention twice before reaching the top with his unanimous decision victory over Charlo last December.
Harrison was on track for a title shot before suffering the first loss of his career in 2015 to Willie Nelson. After three-straight wins, he earned a shot at the vacant 154-pound title against Jarrett Hurd. Although Harrison had strong moments in the fight, he eventually lost to Hurd and was forced to again climb to the top. After another three victories, including a win over former champion Ishe Smith, Harrison took advantage of his second world title opportunity against Charlo.
“Being a world champion now, I’m excited to defend my title for the first time in this rematch that everyone is looking forward to,” ha detto Harrison. “I think there’s actually more pressure on Charlo, just like last time. It’s just a blessing for me to be fighting on FOX and FOX Deportes Sunday, Giugno 23. Everyone is going to be tuned-in to this fight and we’re going to bring the action to Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, the capital of the boxing world. I plan on doing the exact same thing to Jermell that I did in December. I’m going to get the win, and then I don’t want to hear any more crying or excuses.”
The 28-year-old Charlo (31-1, 15 KO) suffered the first setback of his career with the close unanimous decision loss to Harrison. Combattimento da Houston, Texas, Charlo won the vacant WBC title with a devastating knockout victory over John Jackson in 2016. He made three successful defenses of the title with highlight-reel knockouts over Charles Hatley and Erickson Lubin, plus a majority decision win over former champion Austin Trout.
Charlo is trained in Dallas by Derrick James, who was recognized as the 2017 Trainer of the Year by Yahoo Sports and also works with welterweight champion Errol Spence Jr. Charlo is one-minute younger than his identical twin brother, Jermall, who is the WBC interim middleweight champion and a former 154-pound champion.
“I am in a ruthless state of mind. I am upset and this upcoming fight, I am going to give it 110 cento,” Detto Charlo. “I am way hungrier now than I was before. I am not desperate for a win because I know how to win. The judges gave me a bad decision because I didn’t get the knockout, but you don’t have to knock everybody out to beat them. He knows he didn’t beat me. He knows exactly what happened. He knows he can’t beat me. If I have to go in there and prove it again, I will.”
Rigondeaux (18-1, 12 KO) will look to show off the masterful technical skills that made him a unified world champion and perennial member of the pound-for-pound list when he steps into the ring on June 23. A two-time Olympic gold medalist for his native Cuba, Rigondeaux made his name with victories over the likes of Nonito Donaire, Rico Ramos and Joseph Agbeko. The 38-year-old most recently knocked out Giovanni Delgado in January on FS1.
Fighting out of Tlalnepantla, Messico, Sopracciglio (32-3, 28 KO) won an interim world title at super bantamweight in 2015 by stopping Hugo Ruiz in the fifth-round. The 26-year-old would lose the full title to Ruiz in their rematch in 2016, but has won two of three fights since, including a knockout of Anselmo Moreno.
