TORONTO (Dezember 7, 2018) — Former British light heavyweight champion Hosea Burton has never been one to duck a fight. Tatsächlich, he’s looking for a fight.
Burton has made his intentions known, calling out undefeated Anthony Yarde, man to man, to his face. The two recently encountered one another during Tyson Fury-Deontay Wilder fight week in Los Angeles, Kalifornien, where Burton was on-hand to support his cousin, Wut.
“Let’s make the fight happen,” Burton told Yarde. “We’re both excited about it. They say I’m not up to you, but let’s get it going man.” Burton has gone undefeated for two years, since suffering his lone career defeat at the hands of Frank Buglioni, a fight in which he was winning prior to a final round stoppage. Buglioni has recently retired from the sport, leaving Burton to set his sights on Yarde, rather than avenging his defeat first.
Yarde recently scored a knockout victory over Walter Sequeira, Oktober 20 in Brentwood, Verbesserung seiner Aufzeichnung auf 17-0 mit 16 Knockouts. Burton, jedoch, hasn’t been impressed.
“If he’s six foot, I must be six foot nine, because he’s a lot shorter than that,” Burton said of Yarde’s stature. “I would be his first live opponent. Let’s get it on.”
Yarde’s world ranking would play well into Burton’s plans in 2019, which include fighting for a world title after recapturing his domestic gold.
“This would be one of the biggest domestic light heavyweight fights in UK history. Everyone is already placing Yarde amongst the world’s best, but the fact is, he has to get past Hosea,” noted Adam Harris of Athlete Development and Management. “We believe Hosea is the one who’s ready to go after a world title. Let’s have it out and find out who’s right.”
Burton also plans on showcasing his skills in Canada in the new year, following in the footsteps of his cousin Tyson, the lineal heavyweight champion of the world.
Both Tyson and his cousin, Hughie Fury, fought in Canada early in their pro careers, and have held training camps in the Great White North as well. “Some of the best in the world have been coming to Canada to accelerate their careers,” Harris noted, “including Billy Joe Saunders before his most recent fights and, natürlich, Tyson in the past. We have a special relationship with the country, and the fight scene in Toronto is booming in a way we’ve never seen before. We have no doubt Hosea will be appreciated and find plenty of competition north of the border.”

A year ago, Shohjahon “Shoh” Ergashev was a little-known super lightweight prospect from Central Asia.
Jedoch, being able to punch holes in brick walls has a way of helping people remember your name and the Uzbekistani power puncher has taken the boxing world by storm this year.
Mit über 300,000 followers on Instagram and his brutal knockout videos on YouTube regularly getting over 500,000 Ansichten, 2018 is Shoh time.
Promoted by Salita Promotions, boxing’s Russian diamond mine, Ergashev (14-0, 13 KOs) has recently signed a co-managerial deal with TV executive turned super manager Mark Taffet. He will be looking to further his growing reputation on December 14 in a 10-round showdown against Uganda’s Badru Lusambya (26-4-2, 24 KOs) in Krasnodar, Russland.
“I am very happy to be able to show my skills to my fans in Russia on December 14 and I am training hard for a great victory,Sagte Ergashev. “Nothing will stop me from realizing my dreams!" The showdown against Lusambya will be Ergashev’s fifth ring appearance this year (4-0, 3 KOs). He started the year with an impressive nationally televised TKO 3 over then 18-0 Sonny Fredrickson.
“Shohjahon has had a tremendous year fighting both in the US and Russia on a consistent basis,” said Dmitriy Salita of Salita Promotions. “His skills, power and charisma are making him a star on both continents. I look forward to a spectacular performance against Lusambya to end the year.”
26-year-old Ergashev is the current WBA International Super Lightweight Champion. His brand-new co-manager Mark Taffet says he appreciates the Uzbek’s willingness to take on dangerous opponents anywhere and any time.
“We are very excited that Shohjahon will be returning to the ring in Russia in what should be a tremendous fight between two knockout artists. The fans are in for a real treat December 14 as Shoh continues his march toward a world title.”
Middleweight Contender Willie Monroe Jr. Talks Upcoming Showdown Against Jermall Charlo Saturday, Dezember 22 in Premier Boxing Champions on FOX & FOX Deportes Action from Barclays Center in Brooklyn “I’m in my stable now and I’m ready to come flying out of the gate on December 22,” – Monroe
ROCHESTER,NY. (Dezember 4, 2018) – Middleweight contender and former title challengerWillie Monroe Jr. discussed his upcoming contest against WBC Interim Middleweight ChampionJermall Charlo as he prepares to enter the ring in Premier Boxing Champions action Saturday, Dezember 22 live on FOX and FOX Deportes from Barclays Center, die Heimat von BROOKLYN BOXEN ™.
With fight night approaching, Monroe is hard at work in his hometown of Rochester,New York. Along with his coach Timothy Nolan, Monroe believes he is on track to deliver a great performance against an unbeaten opponent.
“Everything in camp right now is on point and moving forward,” said Monroe.”We’re getting the work we need each day. We know how to run a camp smoothly. If I can’t tell anything is wrong, then it’s going great.”
A
veteran of two middleweight world title contests against Gennady Golovkin and
Billy Joe Saunders, Monroe has had his eye on a Charlo matchup to once again
prove himself against an elite middleweight.
“I’ve
always watched Jermall’s fights because I have an eye on anyone around my
weight class,” said Monroe. “Over the last year or so I’ve started to
think I’m really going to get this fight and I’m excited about it coming to
fruition on December 22.
“He’s
considered one of the top middleweights and it makes this a great match. This
time I’m going to have a full training camp like I didn’t get to have for
Golovkin and Saunders and it’s going to help me.”
While
he doesn’t possess the prodigious knockout power of his opponent, Monroe is
more than confident that his other ring attributes will make up for that
difference.
“We’re
both at the top of the division and you don’t get this far without having a lot
of physical ability,” said Monroe. “This fight isn’t about who’s the
fastest and strongest though, it’s about how we’re going to execute. I’m not
focused on who hits harder but who hits smarter. That’s always going to
determine who wins a boxing match.
“Boxing
is about intelligence first and everything follows after that. Will I be able
to execute and make Jermall uncomfortable? We’ll see what happens on fight
night. I’m going to be ready though. I’m in my stable now and I’m ready to come
flying out of the gate on December 22.”
Charlo
was serving as color commentator for Monroe’s August fight on FS1 and since
then the two have gone face-to-face at two separate press events leading up to
fight night. With fight week looming, Monroe believes the frequent face time
will make an even more exciting fight.
“I’m
definitely more eager to fight from seeing Jermall over and over again,”
said Monroe. “The little things that you pick up in person tend to make
you want to fight even more. You see the opponent and you build it up more in
your head and use it for motivation. I think it’s going to make it even more
entertaining when we finally get in there.”

SUPER WELTERWEIGHT FIRST OF SEVERAL BOXEN, MMA STANDOUTS TO JOIN NEW COMBAT SPORT, SAYS PROMOTER FULTON
Former super welterweight world contender Vanes Martirosyan of Glendale, Calif., is the first standout to join International Championship Boxing, promoter of the revolutionary and exciting new combat sport that features boxing in a cage.
“Vanes is not just the first to sign a multi-bout, multi-year agreement with ICB, but he’s also the first of several,” says Jack Fulton, founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Virginia-based ICB.
“We are in discussions with many boxers, mixed martial artists and kickboxers, and some of the names definitely would surprise,” says Fulton. “It’s more than interest, it’s enthusiasm to box in ‘The Fight Zone.’ We’ve struck a chord with boxers and MMA fighters, and it’s resonating.”
The 32-year-old Martirosyan, originally from Armenia, hat einen Rekord von 36-4-1 mit 21 Knockouts.
Martirosyan’s most recent bout was against Gennady Golovkin on May 5 für “GGG’s” World Boxing Association and the World Boxing Council middleweight championships, a fight he took on three-week notice.
Martirosyan had two previous title bouts, one for the WBA super welterweight crown and another for the World Boxing Organization super welterweight championship.
Martirosyan’s first bout in the ICB cage will be during the first quarter of 2019. “I was surprised when I heard about boxing in a cage, but at the same time I was real happy,” says Martirosyan. “The idea is just amazing. Fans are going to love it.
“I’m going to be a nightmare in the cage,” says Martirosyan. “It’s easier to cut off the cage in a dog fight, and I’m an action fighter; I do bring the action.
“I challenge all fighters in the world, Boxen oder MMA, to come into the cage with me, and I’ll show them what real fighting is all about,” says Martirosyan.
“Vanes and his team are excited to be part of this new and unique concept for boxing,” says his manager, Vince Carthron.
“It’s a format just made for Vanes, and we are delighted to be there at the beginning and helping to build it,” says Carthron. “It’s good for boxing fans, and it’s good for Vanes.”
It took Fulton almost two years to get the cage designed, built, patented and approved by boxing and athletic commissions within the United States, including the state of Nevada.
An 18 year veteran promoter of the sport, through the years Fulton began to realize the sport needed something new, something fresh. And in 2016 he did something about it.
“The sport of boxing needed something revolutionary, und dies ist,” says Fulton.
“The ICB cage better assures toe-to-toe, non-stop action, something that’s appealing to both boxing and mixed martial arts fans, and to the new hybrid athlete that’s proficient in more than one combat sport”
“We have no doubt ICB boxing in the cage will engage all ring sports fans,” says Fulton. “‘This is boxing for a new generation, a generation that has grown up watching combat sport in a cage. And that’s the main reason we conceived, created and now launched the ICB. It will re-energize boxing fans and bring MMA fans who prefer stand-up striking.”
“Vanes gets it; he sees the future and the opportunity,” says Fulton. “The ICB cage doesn’t force a boxer or an MMA fighter to make a choice; it offers them flexibility.”
Dominican Juan Carlos “Merengue” Abreu (24-4-1, 19 KOs) aims to beat in high fashion the current IBF USBA welterweight champion Alexander Besputin (11-0, 9 KOs) Russlands, in a duel that will be broadcast by the ESPN+ app this Saturday,Dezember 8th bei 6:00 Uhr ET.
The
fight will be part of the world championship unification bout between José
Pedraza and Vasyl Lomachenko at the Madison Square Garden Theater.
“I
feel very well prepared for this fight. Focused and motivated for victory. It
would be very important because it is at a huge event, and many people all over
the world will see it. I’m just waiting to have that title, God willing”, said
Abreu, who is trained by Chiro Perez in Florida, and managed by Spartan Boxing
Club.
“Besputin
is strong, and he is protected by Top Rank. I know I have to do extra work than
I normally do for the win, and I have the experience to beat him or any other
boxer. I am ready to win, and I hope the judges are fair to my performance”, he
added.
In
his last appearance, Abreu lost by unanimous decision in close fight against
Egidijus Kavaliauskas of Lithuania.
“I know what it feels like to face the promoter’s fighter and lose unfairly. I’min the same situation this Saturday, but that doesn’t take away my dream of being great in this sport. Let’s do this,” said Abreu.
