Dkp

Deerfield Beach, FL (Oktober 31, 2018)—Roberto Garcia wants to reclaim his WBC Silver Belt Championship and what better way than to match him up with England’s Liam Smith for the vacant title.

Garcia (41-4, 24 KOS), who has been in training since losing his Silver belt to Martin Murray in a 12-round unanimous decision on June 23, is ready to take on the durable Smith (26-2-1, 14 KOS) for the belt.

“I saw Smith’s fight against Jaime Munguia for the WBO Super Welterweight title on television,”Sagde Garcia. “It was an all-out war and I feel that the two of us can bring the same type of fight and intensity into the ring for the title. I’m ready to go.”

Smith went the distance in Las Vegas with Munguia and lost his interim WBO Super Welterweight title, which he had won in beating Liam Williams on April 8, 2017 and defended in a rematch with Williams on Nov. 11, 2017 in winning a majority decision.

“Garcia is ready to make the fight with Liam Smith and so is his promoter, Don King,” said manager Lee Holliday. “Both of these fighters are true warriors, so let’s get it on for the title.”

All it takes is a phone call from promoter Frank Warren to Don King and the fight will be on.

McGivern sikrer let tung titel på den hårde måde ved Historic Clacton-on-Sea Event.

Ringside rapport: Gianluca Di Caro

 

Lørdag aften i Princess Theatre i Clacton-on-Sea, Essex, Professionel boksning gjorde en meget velkommen tilbagevenden til kystbyen efter næsten 80 år, da Colchesters Tommy Jacobs præsenterede sin seneste boksekampagne, passende titlen 'Historie'.

 

Den tidligere pro boksning i byen, tilbage i februar 1939, se Irlands Mike Kavan slå Londons Charlie Mack på den dengang nyligt åbnede Butlins ferielejr.

 

Clacton er en by, der er gennemsyret af boksehistorie, selv om siden anden verdenskrig hovedsagelig af sorten Amatør, faktisk kæmpede Tommy Jacobs selv i byen ved adskillige lejligheder i løbet af sin amatørkarriere, og en af ​​sportens helt store er udødeliggjort af restauranten ved bowlingbanen på Clacton Pier, Armstrongs, som er opkaldt efter den amerikanske bokser John Henry Armstrong, der slog den britiske mester Ernie Roderick også i 1939.

 

Det virkede ret passende, at den allerførste af pro-boksekonkurrencerne i denne nye æra skulle indeholde den nuværende World Boxing Foundation (WBF) International og europæisk mester, samt arrangør af arrangementet, Tommy Jacobs, i en ikke-mesterskabskamp i seks runder mod Dundalk, Irlands Michael Kelly.

 

Lige fra åbningsklokken tog Jacobs kampen op mod sin meget erfarne modstander, dog med blot foreløbige testjabs, men som runden skred frem, blev handlingen mere fuld, med Jacobs, der bakker Kelly op på rebene, før han lader rive med glatte kombinationer til krop og hoved.

 

Kelly, en tidligere multi-title udfordrer i sin egen ret, Til at begynde med dækkede og absorberede skuddene, men begyndte hurtigt at kontra effektivt.

 

Mere af det samme tidligt i anden, selvom jeg må kreditere Kelly for hans glatte svar, der forhindrede Jacobs i at få helt samme succes i første strofe, dog da uret gik ind i finalen 20 sekunder eller deromkring af runden begyndte Jacobs at lade rive med store slag til kroppen med stigende succes, så meget, at Kelly bogstaveligt talt i de sidste sekunder blev tvunget til at tage et knæ efter en særlig ond venstrefløj.

 

Desværre kæmpede Kelly for at få vejret og rejse sig i tide til at slå dommer Lee Murtaghs udtælling, det officielle tidspunkt for standsningen 2 Referater og 56 Sekunder af anden runde.

 

Efter kampen meddelte Tommy Jacobs, at grunden til, at han påtog sig en ikke-mesterskabskamp på seks runder og ikke den oprindeligt planlagte WBF Intercontinental titelkamp mod albanske Xhuljo Vrenozi, var, at han er blevet foreslået til potentielt at udfordre Australiens to gange verdensmester Sam Soliman for World Boxing Foundation (WBF) Verdenstitel i december.

 

Nattens anden kamp får Dean Porter sin professionelle debut mod Liverpools Steven Sunners (2-0-0).

Sikke en knaldende al action affære, fra start til slut gik begge drenge virkelig efter det hammer og tang.

 

Efter fire funklende tæt kæmpede runder kom det ikke som nogen overraskelse, at resultatet ville være tæt på, og tæt var det, Dommer Lee Murtaghs scorekortlæsning 39-38 til fordel for Liverpools Steven Sunners.

 

Dernæst var en fjervægtskonkurrence i fire runder mellem Clactons helt egen Ben 'The Claxican’ Cook og Belfasts Chris Wong, som begge fik deres pro-debuter.

 

De første par runder, som med Porter-Sunners, blev kæmpet så tæt, at det ikke var let at kalde vinderen af ​​hver runde, men i 3. blev beslutningen taget lidt lettere, efter at Cook landede et knaldende kropsskud sent i runden for at sende ireren i knæ..

 

Efter fire meget underholdende alle action-runder læste dommer Lee Murtaghs scorekort 40-37 til fordel for den lokale helt Ben Cook.

 

Som med den forrige konkurrence var dette en action-thriller af episke proportioner, så meget, at det uden tvivl var, det var Nattens Kamp.

 

Jeg må sige, at jeg virkelig nød denne kamp og forhåbentlig, efter at dette par får et par kampe under bæltet, vil der være en revanche, da jeg ville elske at se disse to i aktion mod hinanden igen, det var der god.

 

Nattens fjerde kamp ser Ipswich Super-mellemvægter Rob Elden få sin pro-debut mod Liverpools Lee Cooper.

 

Elden startede hårdt og hurtigt, tager kampen til sin mere erfarne fjende og lader rive med store skud til krop og hoved. Til at begynde med dækkede Cooper op, men begyndte hurtigt at kontra med sine egne store skud, men ved at gøre det efterlod en åbning i sit forsvar, som Ipswich-manden var hurtig til at udnytte med en stor ret til hovedet for at sende Copper til lærredet.

 

Kobber kom på benene, og handlingen genoptog i meget samme ånd, med Elden bakker Copper op, før han lader rive med store skud, Cooper svarede igen med sine egne store skud. Da runden nærmede sig det andet minut, Endnu en gang fandt Elden en sprække i Coopers rustning og landede denne gang en stor ret til kroppen for at sende Liverpudlian til lærredet for anden og sidste gang. Den officielle tid for stop var et minut og nioghalvtreds sekunder af første runde.

 

Nattens overskriftskamp ser Hoves Navid Iran og Skotlands Ben McGivern kæmpe om det ledige Professional Boxing Council (PBC) Sølv International Light Heavyweight titel.

 

At kæmpe mod det er det rigtige udtryk; dette var en Battle Royale af episke proportioner.

 

Lige fra ude tog Iran kampen til McGivern, bakker skotten op på rebene og lader rive med en byge af store venstre og højre. McGivern dækkede fornuftigt op og ventede på en mulighed for at kontra, hvilket han gjorde med god virkning, når lejligheden bød sig.

 

Det var dog ikke nok til at forhindre Iran i at komme tilbage med et lignende kraftigt angreb næsten øjeblikkeligt. McGivern formåede endnu engang at kontra og i første omgang tage kontrollen.

 

Som runden skred frem, landede Iran et par knaldende skud, der igen tvang McGivern til at dække over. Irann fortsatte presset med store skud, mens McGivern fangede de fleste med sine handsker, kom en stor højre gennem den skotske guard, ryster ham ind til kernen.

 

Hvordan McGivern nåede til slutningen af ​​runden, Jeg ved det bare ikke, hans ben var godt og grundigt væk, men på en eller anden måde gjorde han det.

 

Runde to ser Iran komme hårdt og hurtigt ud, men McGivern var klar til angrebet, igen indledningsvist dækker op, men denne gang i stedet for bare at modarbejde og dække, han snurrede sin modstander og gik selv hårdt til angrebet.

 

Runde tre ser McGivern tage kampen til Iran, hvilket førte til noget fantastisk teknisk boksning, der fulgte fra begge hovedpersoner.

 

De næste par runder blev udkæmpet på samme måde. Den sidste runde var dog en ude-krig; begge boksere kastede sig forsigtigt i vejret, og der fulgte en total slugfest i de sidste tre minutter – hvilken spændende omgang.

 

Efter otte fantastiske bokserunder blev det Ben McGivern erklæret som sejrherre ved at score dommer Lee Murtagh, af a 79-74 points margin.

 

Må sige, mens helt sikkert det rigtige resultat, resultatet fortæller bare ikke, hvor tæt hver eneste runde, men den første, var. Disse to leverede virkelig et storslået show og var en seriøs kandidat til Fight of the Night-prisen.

 

Hvilken fantastisk begivenhed at byde profboksing velkommen tilbage til Clacton-on-Sea efter næsten firs års pause, en tilbagevenden tydeligt værdsat af fans af pugilistisk kunst, der havde pakket det historiske sted til bunds næsten en time før arrangementet skulle begynde.

The GOAT boxing trainer….. Emanuel Steward

USA Boxing Alumni Association, klasse af 2018 Inductee
(L-R) – The great Tommy Hearns & the late Manny Steward

Colorado Springs, Lap. (November 19, 2018) – The late Emanuel Steward, arguably the greatest boxing trainer of all-time, is a member of the Class of 2018 getting inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame.

 

 

 

The second annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception, held in conjunction with the 2018 USA Boxing Elite and Youth National Championships and Junior and Prep Open, December 2-8, will be held December 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) i Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

 

Steward was a boxer, trainer extraordinaire, and HBO commentator until his untimely death in 2012 i en alder af 68. His boxing career culminated with his induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 1996.

 

 

 

I en alder af 12, Manny moved with his mother from West Virginia to Detroit, where his life soon turned to boxing. Som en amatør bokser, he compiled a 94-3 rekord, fremhævet af en guld-medalje ydeevne på 1963 National Golden Gloves Tournament as a bantamweight, but he decided against trying out for the US Olympic Boxing Team.

 

 

 

I 1971, Steward became a part-time trainer at Kronk Gym, where he eventually guided many of the country’s top amateur boxers. Kronk Gym later became a property of Steward’s and he developed it into one of the most successful and famous boxing gyms in the world.

 

 

 

 

 

Steward also served as National Director of Coaching for USA Boxing in the early 2000’s.

 

 

 

Throughout his incredible career, Steward reportedly trained 41 verdensmestre, måske, the most noteworthy were Thomas Hearns, Lennox Lewis og Wladimir Klitschko. He also trained Julio Cesar Chavez, Miguel Cotto, Oscar de la Hoya, Naseem Hamed, Evander Holyfield, og Mike McCallum. Manny also trained a young Detroit rapper, Eminem, how to box at Kronk Gym.

 

 

 

The last world champion Manny trained was Adonis “Superman” Stevenson, who remains the reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) World light heavyweight champion since 2013.

 

 

 

Emanuel would always say, knockouts sælger!” Stevenson fondly remembered. “He was also the first to tell me, ‘You will be a superstar and a world champion. Just make sure you don’t listen to people with bad intentions because you’ve got natural talent.He believed in me even if some people did not think I would ever become a world champion.

 

 

 

Emanuel Steward impacted the lives of so many who walked through the doors of Kronk Gym,” sagde Chris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Association Executive Director. “While he’s most recognized for his achievement at the professional level, his impact was significant in the amateurs. Manny serves as a model coach for USA Boxing today, and his impact will be felt for a long time. The USA Boxing Alumni Association overwhelmingly supports his induction and looks forward to honoring him as part of this year’s Hall of Fame class.

 

USA Boxing Alumni Association

For years he would come to my National Silver Gloves Tournament that I sponsored and put on in Kansa City just to show his support of the youth program,” added USA Boxing president John Brown tilføjet. “Every year I would tell him to let me know if he was coming, so I could VIP him, and every year he would ignore me and just quietly show up. I would notice him in the crowd. I would ball him out and then we did the same thing the following year.

 

 

 

I also used to see him at big fights and he would always make me feel special by saying my company saved boxing in the seventies and eighties by providing safe, well-made, fair priced boxing equipment for the sport. No one else ever gave me that recognition. He was humble and not a blowhard, my kind of guy.

 

 

 

Emanuel Steward left his mark on earth, not only as a multi-faceted personality in boxing, but he’s also remembered for his magnanimous charity work in Detroit, in which he helped youths in their pursuit of education.

 

 

 

Kort fortalt, selv, he taught boxing, and nobody has ever done it any better.
