‘Swiftis back and Christmas is coming early,” Said Hurd. “This is the perfect way to get ready for 2019. I expect it to be a big year with big fights that the fans will love. I’m locked in right now and ready to put on a great performance against Jason Welborn. Tune in on December 1, because I promise you it won’t go 12 rounds.

 

 

 

Jason Welborn, from West Midlands, Anglia, va face S.U.A. lui. debut on the heels of two wins over previously once-beaten Tommy Langford for the British middleweight title in 2018.

Jarrett Hurd is a big talent who holds all the belts and I respect the challenge he poses,” said Welborn. “I was a huge underdog against Tommy Langford in May and I came through and shocked Britain. În decembrie, I’m going to shock the world. I’ve been in training camp since my last fight and I’ve already been preparing for Hurd’s style. This is my time.

 

 

 

The 39-year-old Ortiz returns to STAPLES Center for his second consecutive fight in Los Angeles after scoring a second-round knockout of Razvan Cojanu in July. In a March, Ortiz nearly had Wilder out on his feet in the seventh until he ultimately succumbed to Wilder’s power in the 10th round, suffering the first loss of his professional career. A consensus top-5 heavyweight, Ortiz will look for another knockout as he hopes to earn a rematch with Wilder in the revived heavyweight division.

 

 

 

I feel blessed to be on the Wilder vs. Fury card and competing on a huge night of boxing in front of a full house,” a spus Ortiz. “In my last fight at STAPLES Center the fans showed me so much love and I can’t wait to be back. I know Travis Kauffman has a good record and I know he’s definitely got heart. If all goes as expected and Wilder puts Fury to sleep like I think he will, I want another shot at him ASAP. It will be an epic rematch between me and Wilder.

 

 

 

Kauffman, de lectură, Penn., is coming off a majority decision over Scott Alexander in May in which the two heavyweights traded first round knockdowns. Kauffman is 14-1 (1 NC) în ultima sa 16 fights with the sole loss coming to Amir Mansour in March 2017.

 

 

 

I’m looking forward to stepping up and challenging myself in an exciting fight,” a spus Kauffman. “Luis Ortiz is the second best heavyweight in the world next to Deontay Wilder. But I’m the toughest fighter you’ll ever face. This is my chance to prove that I’m a great fighter and I’m excited to do it on this huge stage.

 

 

 

The 6-foot-6 Joyce, din Londra, Anglia, has started his professional career with a 100 percent KO rate after turning professional in 2017 la vârsta de 32.

Joyce, who trains in Big Bear, Calif. under renowned trainer Abel Sanchez, a făcut S.U.A. lui. debut in September with a fifth-round knockout of Iago Kiladze.

 

 

 

It’s an honor to be part of this huge event and I give a lot of credit to Joe Hanks for stepping up and taking this fight,” said Joyce. “Hanks has a good record, but I am coming to take him out. If everything goes to plan and I come through this fight as I should, I am ready for a big fight early next year to show that I’m a force in this division.

 

 

 

Hanks, Newark, New Jersey, started his career with a 21-0 run before suffering consecutive losses to Andy Ruiz Jr. în 2013 and Derric Rossy in 2014. After a three-and-a-half-year layoff following the loss to Rossy, Hanks, who lives in downtown Los Angeles, has recovered his form and returned to score a unanimous decision over Joel Caudle and a first round knockout of Terrence Marbra in consecutive fights.

 

 

 

It feels good to be in the mix and getting exposure with the top heavyweights,” said Hanks. “I bring speed, athleticism and power to this fight. I’ve got a lot of great experience in my career sparring against guys like Deontay Wilder and Wladimir Klitschko, so I’m comfortable against a guy like Joe Joyce. I live in Los Angeles now and this is going to be like fighting in my front yard. I’m going to be feeling good on fight night.

Puerto Rican Olympian Negron Ready to Take on Top Heavyweight Contender Dominic Breazeale Saturday, Decembrie 22 in Premier Boxing Champions on FOX & FOX Deportes Action Live from Barclays Center in Brooklyn

CARLOS NEGRON TRAINING CAMP NOTES

MIAMI, FL. (Noiembrie 9, 2018) – Puerto Rico Olympian Carlos Negron is deep into training camp in Miami for his 10-round heavyweight showdown against top contender Dominic “Necaz” BREAZEALE taking place Saturday, Decembrie 22 live on FOX and FOX Deportes and presented by Premier Boxing Champions from Barclays Center, casa BROOKLYN BOXING ™.

 

 

 

Born in San Juan, Negron represented his home country at the 2008 Olympic games and is eager to return to fight in front of New York’s large contingent of Puerto Rican boxing fans on December 22.

 

 

 

This is a great opportunity not only against a top opponent, but to be on the big stage in front of the great Puerto Rican fans and put on a great performance for them,” said Negron, who last fought in New York in 2010. “I’m very confident in my abilities and I understand the job I have in front of me. Everyone will see how hard I’ve worked when we get in the ring.

 

 

 

Under the guidance of trainer Herman Caicedo, Negron will return to the ring for the first time since June 2017, when he scored a knockout victory over veteran contender Derric Rossy in a dominating performance that saw him score multiple knockdowns. Negron has worked with Caicedo for nearly a year, previously helping prepare Luis Ortiz for his heavyweight title bout against Deontay Wilder.

 

 

 

Having Carlos in camp for an extended period of time before the Breazeale fight was even announced has really allowed us to be leaps ahead at this point in training camp,” said Caicedo. “Mentally and physically he is really sharp right now and it’s going to show on fight night.

 

 

 

Working with Luis Ortiz and the other fighters in our gym has really helped push me to another level,” said Negron. “We’re grinding every day and they truly demand the best out of me. There’s no being mediocre here. You have to put in your best effort every day.

 

 

 

With the six-foot-six Negron meeting the six-foot-seven Breazeale, this matchup is sure to display the power of two giants of the division. A former title challenger and U.S. Olimpic, Breazeale has shown the ability to come back in a fight and turn the tides with one punch. For Negron, he knows the task in front of him is tall in stature and order.

 

 

 

Breazeale is a very tough fighter and what he might lack in skill, he more than makes up for in heart,” said Negron. “He certainly has shown skill to get to this point in his career, but he also has that special something that’s gotten him through some tough fights.

 

 

 

It’s going to come down to intelligence and controlling the ring. I’m a very smart fighter with a lot of experience. I’ve had a loss and I don’t want to experience that again. I believe whoever gets thrown off their game plan is going to suffer and I’m going to make sure I’m prepared for everything he throws at me.

 

 

 

The PBC on FOX & FOX Deportes broadcast begins at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT and is co-headlined by twin champions the Charlos as Jermall Charlo defends his interim WBC middleweight title against Willie Monroe Jr., while WBC Super Welterweight World Champion Jermell Charlo bătălii Tony Harrison.

LAS VEGAS, NV (Noiembrie 8, 2018) – Due to reasons involving medical issues, Final Fight Championship has announced that “FFC 34” on November 9th has been officially canceled.

 

 

 

Nick Sadeghi, MD of Athlete Advantage Medical in Las Vegas, NV, released the following statement to Final Fight Championship.

 

The Nevada State Athletic Commission requires a series of medical examinations to be completed by a professional fighter in order to determine the medical condition of a fighter, the outcome of those exams determining if the fighter will be cleared to compete or not. Of utmost concern is the fighter’s physical well-being. It was determined by independent physicians conducting the exams for FFC as well as the Nevada State Athletic Commission that several fighters scheduled to compete on the November 9th fight card would not be able to compete due to abnormal MRA findings which identified small aneurysms in the brain. For obvious reasons, these fighters could not be cleared to compete without proper medical workup. This includes consulting with a Neurosurgeon and an Interventional Radiologist. Some fighters may be cleared after this, but some may need a surgical procedure to correct the aneurysm before he or she can continue to fight in the future.

 

 

 

FFC CEO/President, Orsat Zovko, issued his own statement regarding the unfortunate cancelation.

 

 

 

We are disappointed to make this announcement, but on such short notice it was impossible to move forward because four of our six fights were stopped by the commission and medical personnel, including our Main Event and Co-Event,” said Zovko.

 

 

 

We must follow the strict rules and guidelines of the Nevada Athletic Commission, and we respect the decisions made by the medical community, because it is in the best interest of the fighters, and to protect their health is the ultimate goal.

“Am cunoscut un promotor în Noua Zeelandă, și am putut să lupt în fiecare săptămână acolo. Asta mi-a accelerat procesul și dezvoltarea. Am revenit la Los Angeles, și a reușit să obțină încă patru victorii.”

 

 

 

La 7-0, Wilson a cunoscut apoi un jucător de lungă durată din industria boxului, Jared Shaw.

 

 

 

Shaw a văzut videoclipuri cu Wilson pe contul său de Instagram, și a întins mâna grea neînvinsă.

 

 

 

“Jared m-a contactat, și m-am întâlnit la sală, și el a avut aceeași viziune pentru mine pe care am avut-o, iar restul este istorie.”

 

 

 

“L-am văzut pe James ca pe un romb grosier,” spuse Shaw. “El are combinația și viteza și puterea pe care nu le vedeți în diviziunea grea. El are asta “aceasta” factor pe care l-am văzut cu Kimbo Slice. Am avut norocul să-l fi semnat pe Kimbo din luptele care au fost văzute pe Youtube. Când Kimbo a intrat într-o cameră, ai simțit prezență și energie. Văd o mulțime de aceleași calități în ceea ce privește James fiind acel tip de atracție. Oricine a greșit pe James cu un jucător de fotbal sau un artist marțial mixt, cu siguranță va avea mâinile pline în ringul de box. Acesta este un atlet albastru, ” spuse Shaw, care a crescut în sport, deoarece tatăl său Gary Shaw a fost unul dintre cei mai buni promotori din lume în ultimele trei decenii.

 

 

 

 

 

Prima treabă a lui Shaw a fost să-l aducă pe James cu formatorul potrivit. Intră pe Justin Fortune.

 

 

 

“Îl cunosc pe Justin de mult. Atât ca antrenor de forță și condiționare, cât și ca antrenor. Cei mai mulți l-ar cunoaște de partea lui Manny Pacquiao, dar poate că majoritatea oamenilor nu știu că Justin era un potențial greu care s-a luptat cu Lennox Lewis. Ceea ce îmi place cel mai mult la această împerechere este Justin, de asemenea, un greutate mai scurtă, ci un perforator puternic. Anii săi de experiență sunt ceea ce îl va ajuta pe James să își accelereze creșterea în sport. Ca o echipa, avem un obiectiv de a readuce un campionat mondial în Los Angeles și în timp util,” continuă Shaw.

 

 

 

Următoarea mișcare a lui Shaw a fost să găsească promotorul potrivit pentru care va semna Wilson, iar duo-ul a găsit una dintre cele mai mari companii din lume care era interesată.

 

 

 

“O mulțime de promotori se uitau la mine. M-am întâlnit cu Golden Boy, și mi-au văzut talentul și viziunea și simt că vor face asta pentru mine, și du-mă la Campionatul Mondial de Greutate,” spuse Wilson.

 

 

 

Shaw a vorbit puternic despre căsătoria dintre luptător și promotor.

 

 

“Este situația perfectă. Golden Boy Promotions este unul dintre liderii sportului nostru atunci când vine vorba de companii de promovare. In aceasta situatie, s-a gândit că aveți o perspectivă grozavă de la lupta din Los Angeles de la o companie de renume mondial cu sediul în Los Angeles. În prezent, Golden Boy se află în vârful sportului. Ei promovează, probabil, cel mai înalt luptător din lume în Canelo Alvarez, și au putut să-i asigure o înțelegere fără precedent cu DAZN. Așteptăm cu nerăbdare oportunitățile care vor veni pentru James, și să-l arătăm pe James’ set extraordinar de abilități. eu am 100% încredere în Oscar (De La Hoya), Eric (Gomez) și Robert (Diaz) să-l conducă pe James la campionatul mondial Heavyweight, și contribuie la maximizarea potențialului său de câștig. Los Angeles nu a avut niciodată un campion la Greutate, deci are sens perfect că primul va fi cu o echipă completă din Los Angeles cu James, Justin, Băiatul de Aur și cu mine. ”

 

 

 

“Ce mi-aș dori ca oamenii să știe despre James este că în interiorul corzilor, el este un film al bestiei și al luminilor umane, deci nu clipi. Dar în afara ringului, el este un tată incredibil pentru cei trei băieți ai săi. Un vorbitor motivațional extraordinar, și un model pozitiv pentru orașele interioare și restul lumii. El este mare pe comunitate și ajută tinerii. Mai ales a celor bulversați.”

 

 

 

Wilson vorbește cu mulți tineri despre Anti-Bullying. “Spun multe seminarii și seminarii pentru anti-intimidare. Mă duc la o mulțime de școli și locuințe adoptive și le spun povestea mea. Cred că pot fi cineva pentru care copiii să privească și să-i anunțe că au un viitor, în ciuda circumstanțelor în care se află. Le spun copiilor că mâinile tale sunt arme, gura ta este o armă, iar singurul loc de luptă este în interiorul unui inel.”

 

 

 

Când a fost întrebat cu cine vrea să lupte și care sunt obiectivele sale în sport, Spuse Wilson, “Nu caut să lupt cu nimeni în mod special, Caut să-i lupt pe toți. Cel mai important, Sunt aici pentru a le oferi fanilor ceva de urmărit. Este 365 zile de “Fiară” sezon. Este modul Beast sau modul fără.”

Banner Promotions signs undefeated Lightweight Mohamed Soumaoro

PHILADELPHIA, PENN.(Noiembrie 8, 2018)–Banner Promotions has signed it’s 2nd undefeated lightweight this week as the promotional company has signed Mohamed Soumaoro.

 

 

 

The 25 year-old Soumaoro is out of Montreal, Canada by way of Conakry, Guinea and Havana, Cuba.

 

 

 

He has amassed a professional record of 6-0 cu trei knockout.

 

 

 

Growing up in Havana as a youth he enjoyed walking, playing soccer, going to school and learning. During this time he was introduced to karate and taekwondo.

After a 53-fight amateur career, he turned professional on April 8, 2017 with a 1st round stoppage over Antonio Vergara.

 

 

 

Soumaoro has continued his success as he has made two starts this year. În ultimul său meci, he stopped Ramon Urbina in one round on September 15th in Managua, Nicaragua.

 

 

 

He considers himself as a counterpuncher as he is heavily influenced by future Hall of Famer, Juan Manuel Marquez.

 

 

 

I started boxing at age 15 after watching fights on television. I started fighting a little bit in the streets when I was in Guinea,” said Soumaoro.

 

 

 

I am happy to sign with Banner Promotions. My manager Otis Grant has said great things about Banner Promotions, and I see big things. I am happy. This is going to be a good journey. I am ready to make a statement, and realize my American dream.
