Here is what the luncheon participants had to say Friday at lunch from Watty’s at The Flats in Beverly Hills, which featured a special guest in former two-division world champion Danny Garcia:

 

DOMINIC Breazeale, WBC nr. 1 Heavyweight Challenger

 

 

 

“I’ve been staying in the gym consistently. My trainer Manny Robles does a great job of keeping me sharp. He makes sure I’m watching other guys spar and learning new tools.

 

 

 

“I have worked hard to get to the top and I’ve done it by bringing the fight each and every time. I’ve waited for this opportunity and my time is now.

 

 

 

“Carlos Negron is a great fighter who I’ll be ready for. People want to see exchanges and that is what I’m aiming for. I’m going to give the fans a great show and bring home a victory.

 

 

 

“I know that I’m a contender in the heavyweight division. I came up short against Anthony Joshua, but now I have a beautiful opportunity to go after the WBC title. I’m not letting anyone stand in my way.

 

 

 

“My goal was to not be in camp trying to get in shape. I see too much of that. So I made sure once it was time to focus in on this fight, that I was already at fighting weight. I feel great right now and I see the difference.

 

 

 

“I’m looking forward to this big fight on FOX and FOX Deportes. It’s been a long time coming to get back in the ring and this is a great stage for me to do it on.

 

 

 

“My main focus is on this fight and securing the title shot. I’m preparing for Carlos Negron like he’s Deontay Wilder. I would be a little upset if Tyson Fury wins because I really want to face Wilder.

 

 

 

“My plan is to win on December 22 and next time I fight, that green belt will be on the line. I’m ready for this shot at the belt that I’ve worked for.”

 

MANNY ROBLES, Breazeale’s Trainer

 

 

 

“Dominic is really prepared for this fight. He will be ready because he is an extremely hard-working fighter. His strength and conditioning work has been really focused and we think it’s going to show in this fight.

 

 

 

“We are taking this fight very seriously, as we do every fight. This is one of his better camps we’ve had together. So far things are going great. I am not just saying that. I truly believe you will see a better Dominic than ever before.

 

 

 

“We are working on a lot of different things – snelheid, voetwerk, stamina. We understand that we have a good boxer-puncher in front of us. He is up for the task. Dominic will be great. Expect fireworks on December 22.”

 

BRITTANY GOOSSEN BROWN, Vice-president van TGB Promoties

 

 

 

“This is going to be a great heavyweight matchup on December 22 in Brooklyn. Dominic Breazeale is always in action fights and he knows he needs to win in style to get another shot at the heavyweight world championship.

 

 

 

“Breazeale is the mandatory challenger for the Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury winner, but he can’t look past the experienced Puerto Rican Olympian Carlos Negron. This fight is going to be a great way to kick off the FOX and FOX Deportes telecast.”

DICAIRE WILL FACE NAMUS! IBF WORLD LIGHT MIDDLEWEIGHT FEMALE CHAMPIONSHIP SET FOR DECEMBER 1 IN QUEBEC CITY

Laat een reactie achter
“MANDATORY”
December 1st at the Vidéotron Centre in Quebec City

 

QUEBEC CITY, Canada (November 2, 2018) –– de charismatische Marie-Eve Dicaire (13-0-0, 0 KO) will have the chance to make her dream come true on December 1 at the Videotron Center in Quebec, when she fights for the International Boxing Federation (IBF) World light middleweight title against champion Chris Namus (24-4-0, 8 KO), of Uruguay. Marie-Eve will fight in the first women’s world title bout in Quebec’s history.

 

 

 

The 31-year-old Namus, fighting out of South America, signed the contract this past Tuesday to defend her crown against Dicaire in the co-featured event on the card headlined by the World Boxing Council (WBC) and lineal light heavyweight world championship bout between Adonis Stevenson en uitdager Oleksandr gvozdyk, adding some spice to an already red-hot card.

 

 

 

Namus, nicknamed “El Bombon Asesino”, has been IBF champion since 2017, when she defeated Argentina’s Yamila Esther Reynoso voor de vacante titel. She has since defended her belt once, against her compatriot, Katia Alvarino.

 

 

“Eerst en vooral,” Dicaire zei, “I must say that I feel privileged to have the opportunity to box for the world championship for the first time here in Quebec. This fight represents years of effort, offer, perseverance and to live that moment before those who supported me during this tumultuous journey is indescribable for me.

 

 

 

“My preparation for this fight is already well underway and I must admit that the signature of Namus has just added an additional motivation for the last steps of my camp. Zo, kijk uit! I cannot wait to be in the ring and touch this belt!”

 

 

 

“Marie-Eve is in a good position to be a star in the history of Canadian boxing. She will not have a second chance to leave a good first impression,” added GYM’s vice president of operations and recruitment, Bernard Barré.

 

 

 

Tickets, vanaf $ 50.50, taksen en dienst inbegrepen, are on sale at Gestev.com and Ticketmaster.ca, at the Champions Boxing Club (514-376-0980), bij GYM (514-383-0666) of 1-855-790-1245.

 

De “Mandatory” event will be televised in the United States and Canada on pay-per-view via Indigo, Bell TV en Shaw TV.

 

MARIE-EVE DICAIRE

 

 

 

Marie-Eve Dicaire has been in the fighting sports since a very young age. Op slechts 6 jaar oud, karate captivated her. She obtained a zwarte band and won a Canadian Championship before even being 11 jaar oud.

 

 

 

Bij 18 jaar oud, Marie-Eve became karate world champion for a first time. She would win that title four other times.

 

 

 

She also gained a spot on the NASKA American circuit with the Amerikick team.

 

 

 

Een 5th degree black belt and owner of a dojo (Karaté Sunfuki), Dicaire made a switch to kickboxing and had two fights (a win and a draw) before starting boxing.

 

 

 

On the amateur boxing scene, she fought more than 50 times in less than four years.

Her best year was 2013, when she won the Quebec Championship, Canadian Championship en de Ringside World Championship, plus a win over the American champion in a Canada versus United States meeting.

 

 

 

Boxe Québec also named her 2013 Atleet van het Jaar.

 

 

 

The fighter from Saint-Eustache, Quebec, made her pro debut November 20, 2015, in Sorel-Tracy. She defeated Christina Barry, from Manitoba, met eenparigheid van stemmen.

 

 

 

Januari 21 op het Montreal Casino, Dicaire beat Christina Barry for a second time to keep her undefeated record.

 

 

 

In her third outing, she bested Mexican veteran Martha Patricia Lara, Maart 17th op het Montreal Casino.

 

 

 

Mei 24 op het Montreal Casino, Dicaire faced a rival ranked 16th in the world by the WBC, Amerikaans Ashleigh Curry. With an energetic body attack, she won a unanimous decision.

 

 

 

On October 20th, it was Mexican warrior Karla Zamora‘s turn to taste Dicaire’s medicine, and then on December 10, former NABF champion Paty Ramirez, van Mexico, was also defeated.

 

 

 

On February 9th at the Cabaret of the Casino de Montréal, Marie-Eve fought for the first time in the final bout of a professional boxing card. It was also a first women’s final for GYM. The southpaw delivered a perfect performance for his first eight-round confrontation by winning a unanimous decision over aggressive American Lisa Noel Garland.

 

 

 

In her most recent performance on June 15, she completely dominated the tough regional champion of Tijuana Alejandra Ayala.

 

 

 

In the first 10 rounds fight of her career, Oktober 25, 2017 at the Lac Leamy Casino, Dicaire won a spectacular battle against the aggressive champion of Argentina Yamila Esther Reynoso, winnen met eenparigheid van stemmen.

 

After a win in a rematch with Ramirez, the southpaw faced former IBF World Champion Marisa Gabriela Nunez februari 15 at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal. Thanks to a win by majority decision in 10 rondes, she captured her first professional belt, de NABF light middleweight title.

 

Accustomed to performing at the highest summit of the disciplines, in which she has evolved, Dicaire is aiming for nothing less than a world championship belt. She is currently ranked #1 Door de WBA, #2 by the IBF and #2 door de WBC.

Philadelphia’s most viewed fighter, Christian Carto takes on 37 fight veteran Antonio Rodriguez on Friday, November 9th at SugarHouse Casino

Laat een reactie achter

Philadelphia, Penn. (November 2, 2018)–Millions of travelers drive on Interstate-95 each day. In each direction there are many billboards that are visible for miles. For the better part of the last month, two billboards in particular feature one of the hottest prospects in boxing in undefeated bantamweight Christian Carto.

 

 

 

Carto, who has been featured multiple times by SugarHouse Casino de 21 year-old has developed a relationship with the casino as he has packed the fight venue on seven previous occasions.

 

 

 

“It’s really cool to see me up on these big billboards,” said Carto. “I didn’t know they were going up, but it is very exciting to see it.”

 

 

 

Those massive billboards can only enhance Carto’s already huge fan base.

 

 

Op vrijdag nacht, November 9th, Carto will make his eighth appearance at SugarHouse Casino when he takes on 37 vechtveteraan Antonio Rodriguez in the six-round main event of a seven bout card promoted by King’s Promotions.

 

 

 

Carto has signature victories over Alonso Melendez (14-1) and James Smith (12-1). Carto is coming off a eight-round unanimous decision over Javier Gallo on August 18th in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

 

 

 

Rodriguez of Durango, Mexico is a very capable foe as the 30 year-old has big wins over undefeated opponents Alonso Melendez (11-0); Junior Granados (12-0) and Luis Castro (7-0-2). Rodriguez also has wins over Jonathan Chavez (6-1-1), Granados (12-2-1).

 

 

 

“I don’t know too much about him,” continued Carto, “I know he is a Mexican fighter who likes to come forward. We share a common opponent in Alonso Melendez. I have seen that he is tough.”

 

 

 

This will be the 4th outing of 2018 for Carto, and with a win he will raise his mark to 2019, maar de 21 year-old is continuing his learning process as he heads into the new year.

 

 

 

“I feel that I started off well in 2018. I always want to do better, and I am own biggest critic. I feel that I should have done better in my last two fights. This training camp, which is my 2nd camp with Billy Briscoe as my head trainer, ik heb veel geleerd, so I know I will do better.”

 

 

 

With Brisoce manning the corner, Carto sees himself getting better with each fight in 2019.

 

 

 

“I can definitely see myself fighting for a regional title in 2019, but I am still earning, so there is no rush. With being with Billy, I would like to go out to a training camp with one of the champions to help them get ready for a big, which will help me even more.”

 

 

 

“I just want to thank Billy as well as my brother Frankie who has helped me a lot with the training. My father who helps with all the tickets and ticket requests. I also had some great sparring with a Romuel Cruz. I am ready for a great fight.

 

 

 

In a rematch of a draw that took place on August 10th at SugarHouse Casino, Ricardo Garcia (14-3-1, 9 KO) van Santo Domingo, DR fights Tyrone Crawley (7-1-1) of Philadelphia in a eight-round junior welterweight fight.

 

 

 

In the a six-round bout, former National Golden Gloves champion Poindexter Knight Jr. (5-0, 2 KO) neemt Travis Castellon (16-2-1, 12 KO) van Fort Lauderdale, Florida in a welterweight bout.

TYSON FURY DISCUSSES CRUSHING DOWNWARD SPIRAL AND CAREER COMEBACK IN EMOTIONAL SIT-DOWN INTERVIEW WITH MAURO RANALLO

Laat een reactie achter

 

Lineal Heavyweight Champion opens up ahead of his fight against Deontay Wilder December 1 op SHOWTIME PPV®.

“If mental illness can bring someone as big as me, as strong as me… to my knees, then it can bring anybody to their knees” – Fury

Catch the full interview: https://s.sho.com/2OmqAAq

WAT: Lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury opened up to SHOWTIME Sports® omroeper Mauro Ranallo about his years-long struggle with mental health in what Ranallo deemed the most important interview of his career. The two sat down in Big Bear, California where Fury has been training for his December 1 showdown against WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay Wilder live op Showtime PPV®.

 

 

Woede, who shocked the world in 2015 with a unanimous decision victory over former world champion Wladimir Klitschko, details his swift rise to the upper echelon of the heavyweight division, all while battling crippling depression and anxiety that diminished his love of the sport. He recounts his apathy toward boxing leading up to the Klitschko fight and the downward spiral he endured following his historic win.

 

 

Following his win over Klitschko, Fury would fail to face his mandatory challengers and attempted to combat his mental struggles with alcohol and drugs, eventually ballooning to 400 pond. The self-proclaimed “Gypsy King” hit a turning point in October of 2017, when he began to seek help for depression and anxiety and was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, which Ranallo also suffers from.

 

 

Ranallo’s battle with mental illness was recently chronicled in the SHOWTIME documentary BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N’ ROLLER, where the combat sports announcer showcases his struggles and advocates for the shattering of stigmas surrounding mental illness. Like Ranallo, Fury aims to raise awareness of his own struggles and encourage others to seek help.

 

 

“It was like having a fight in my own mind,” Fury said. "[Mental illness] is a silent killer. It is almost like carbon monoxide poisoning because you can’t see it. My calling card is to spread the word on mental health.”

 

 

Fury’s journey back to stardom began with back-to-back wins in his first two fights this past summer. He knocked out Sefer Seferi in June of 2018, and followed suit with a unanimous decision win over Francesco Pianeta in August. His August victory culminated with an in-ring confrontation with Wilder, where the two announced their upcoming heavyweight blockbuster fight.

 

 

The heavyweight showdown headlines the December 1 Showtime PPV live vanuit Staples Center in Los Angeles (9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT). Wilder, who has knocked out all seven challengers of his title, will attempt to make his eighth WBC Heavyweight defense. In the third fight of his comeback, Fury has the opportunity to become a two-time heavyweight world champion.

Isiah Seldon klaar voor ongeslagen middengewicht Tyler Howard op 16 november in Oklahoma City

Laat een reactie achter

Atlantic City, NJ (November 1, 2018) – Middengewicht Isiah Seldon maakt zich op voor zijn grootste gevecht uit zijn carrière wanneer hij het opneemt tegen de ongeslagen Tyler Howard in een gevecht dat gepland staat voor acht ronden op 16 november in The Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City..

 

 

 

De bout, die wordt gepromoot door Top Rank, wordt live gestreamd op ESPN +.

 

 

 

Tijdens het hoofdevenement zal WBO Junior kampioen weltergewicht Maurice Hooker verdedigen tegen Alex Saucedo.

 

 

 

Seldon (12-1-1, 4 KO) trainde in Atlantic City onder het toeziend oog van Bill Johnson.

 

 

 

“Ik kijk uit naar deze geweldige kans,” zei Seldon. “Ik verlangde naar een kans om het op te nemen tegen een vechter als Howard, want een overwinning zal mijn carrière naar een hoger niveau tillen.”

 

 

 

Team Seldon, werkt ijverig samen met de oude manager Jim Kurtz, erg enthousiast over de kans die Seldon voor hem heeft.

 

 

 

“Het wordt niet groter dan vechten in een Top Rank-show met een explosief hoofdevenement tussen Hooker en Saucedo. Het personeel van Top Rank is top. Ik vind het heel spannend dat Isiah deze kans krijgt om zijn talenten op een groot podium te laten zien. Ikzelf en co-manager Joe Thompson zijn ervan overtuigd dat Isiah klaar is om te schitteren op 16 november en dat het hier niet snel genoeg kan komen,” zei Kurtz, die Seldon vanaf dag één heeft geleid.

 

 

 

Kurtz beheerde ook de vader van Seldon, WBA zwaargewicht kampioen, Bruce Seldon.

 

 

 

“Isiah is herenigd met zijn oorspronkelijke trainer Bill Johnson en ze hebben geen slag overgeslagen. Dit is de eerste keer dat Isiah een volwaardig trainingskamp heeft gehad. We hebben geen middel onbeproefd gelaten ter voorbereiding op dit gevecht. Isiahs conditionering is op een punt dat ik nog nooit bij hem heb gezien. Hij krijgt geweldige sparring en zijn verbetering bij het werken met Bill ter voorbereiding op dit gevecht is ongelooflijk. Hij is klaar om de wereld een nieuwe en verbeterde Isiah Seldon te laten zien. Hij heeft een grote erfenis te volgen als zoon van voormalig WBA zwaargewicht kampioen Bruce Seldon, maar Isiah is vastbesloten om zijn eigen stempel te drukken op de bokssport.”

 

 

 

“Hij heeft altijd de macht in beide handen gehad, scoren in bijna elk gevecht, maar nu leert hij kalm te blijven en jongens af te maken in plaats van overdreven opgewonden te raken en ze los te laten. Hij slaat harder dan ooit tevoren, door zijn stoten samen te voegen en zijn bokskwaliteiten hebben een niveau bereikt waarop hij het tempo van het gevecht kan beheersen. We hebben het rustig aan gedaan met Isiah, aangezien hij geen amateurgevechten had, maar we zijn nu op het punt waarop hij klaar is om zijn stempel te drukken op de middengewichtdivisie.”

 

 

 

“We weten dat Tyler Howard een goede ongeslagen jager is. Hij had een goede amateurcarrière, komt uit een gezin met een boksachtergrond, en heeft een solide managementteam die geweldig werk met hem hebben gedaan. Op 16 november verwachten we een zwaar gevecht met wat vuurwerk, maar we zijn ervan overtuigd dat Isiah als overwinnaar zal uitkomen en dit zal ons naar grotere en betere kansen leiden.”

New WBA Middleweight Champion Rob Brant Basking in the Glow, but Ready for ‘Next Assignment’

Laat een reactie achter

Brand-new WBA World Middleweight Champion Rob “Bravo” Brant says he goes everywhere with his new best friend. “The belt hasn’t left my side since they handed it to me,” laughs the personable new champion from Saint Paul, Minnesota.

 

 

 

28-jarige Brant (24-1, 16 KO) says he went into his main-event showdown with then champion Ryota Murata (14-2, 11 KO), last Saturday night at the Park MGM in Las Vegas (and live on ESPN+), unaware he was such a heavy underdog.

 

 

 

“I really did go into it very confident I would win, just off the preparations we did,” said Brant, who was having his first fight with former world champion Eddie Mustafa Muhammad as his trainer. “I tried to stay away from news when I was in training, so I had no idea how big of an underdog I was. We had a post-fight press conference and that was when I found out. When reporters were asking about it. I had no idea. It wouldn’t have deterred me anyway if I had known.”

 

 

 

Despite the doubts of the bookmakers, Brant cruised to a lopsided 12-round unanimous decision over 2012 Olympic gold medalist Murata, with two judges giving him all but one round, the other all but two. Brant busted up the now ex-champion with a piston-like jab and peppered him with combinations throughout what turned out to be a surprisingly dominant performance.

 

 

 

According to CompuBox statistics, Brant landed 356 van 1,262 stoten (28 procent) while Murata connected with just 180 van 774 (23 procent).

 

 

 

“As a pro, he hasn’t seen what I gave him,” explained Brant. We knew he had a hard time with hand speed and jabs. He locks up when punches are being thrown, so we made sure we kept him backing up and worried about the jab and punches in general. The more he thinks about my shots, the less he throws. We knew we’d be able to keep him on his back foot. Eddie Mustafa is very strict on letting the hands go. We were big on the cardio in training and keeping the punch rate high. And when you’re keeping the jab out there all the time, other shots open up.”

 

 

 

Brant says at fight’s end, he wasn’t worried about the decision going his way.

 

 

 

“I’ve always felt that judges’ decisions are out of my hands. I was nervous about it, you don’t know until they announce your name, but I knew I had done what I felt was my best work. I had a great sense of pride and relief knowing I put it all out there and did everything possible to win. But now that I have won, it’s kind of like having giant weight lifted off my shoulders. It’s definitely my biggest accomplishment ever, winning in Vegas against a former Olympic gold medallist. It’s everything I ever worked for. It was the best feeling in the world. I knew how much I worked for that. Boxing gives back what you put into it and I put my everything into it.”

 

 

 

Although Brant and promoters GCP reportedly agreed to a rematch before the fight, the new champion says he’s not sure the now ex-champion wants it.

 

 

 

“All the talk of a rematch has been from his promoters. I haven’t heard him say anything about it. He might be a little discouraged right now. I’m not saying he won’t be able to come back, but I don’t think he wants it right now. I’ll just go on to bigger and better in the division. Once you win a title, there are no more easy fights. Until you are the undisputed king, you’re always taking steps up in class in every fight.”

 

 

 

Brant says he took a week off but is now back in the gym and ready for what comes next.

 

 

 

“I’m just waiting for the next assignment to work toward. I want to know who my next opponent is as soon as possible, so I can go to sleep at night thinking of what I’m going to do. Watching film and looking for flaws and things I can exploit. That’s when I‘m really the most comfortable. When I have an assignment. It’ll be a big name eventually. I’m there now. So I’m just waiting to see who is next for me to spend all my time watching that person.”

 

 

 

Brant gives a big piece of the credit for his upset victory to the only man to ever beat him. Afgelopen oktober, he stepped up in weight to participate in the World Boxing Super Series as a super middleweight and lost a one-sided decision to former light heavyweight champion Juergen Braehmer in Germany.

 

 

 

“The thought of what happened against Braehmer was always in the background. That’s what really motivated me to be the best I could in this fight. I knew I was better than I was in that fight. I had to prove it by doing what I’m capable of. The loss to Braehmer will be in the back of my mind forever. I won’t let anyone else do that to me again. I will never forget that loss and I’ve been a better fighter from that point forward.”

Michael Dutchover Looks to Close out 2018 With Another Win

PHILADELPHIA, PENN. / ORANJE, Calif. (Oktober. 29, 2018) – The fast-rising Michael Dutchover (11-0, 8 KO), with four solid wins on the year, aims to close out 2018 with another victory on Vrijdag, November. 16, van de Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Calif.

 

 

 

Nederlands Over, die zal draaien 21 the day before the event, will fight veteran and former world title challenger Daulis Prescott (31-9, 24 KO) in the 8-round main event of Thompson Boxing’s “Vergrendeld n’ Geladen” season finale.

 

 

 

Nederlands Over, a junior lightweight fighting out of Midland, Tex., has had a breakout year of sorts with his recent display of power punching. His last three wins have come by way of knockout, including a sensational second round, one-punch destruction of Sergio Martinez in July.

 

 

 

Daarvoor, the West Texas warrior, die in Los Angeles treinen, removed Mike Fowler in three rounds. Two months ago in September, Dutchover stopped Bergman Aguilar in the fifth.

 

 

 

Nederlands Over, echter, understands the Colombian-born Prescott poses a far more serious challenge than any other foe he has faced this year, or in his young career.

 

 

 

“This year was all about elevating my level of competition,” Said Dutchover, who is promoted by industry veterans Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing .”Prescott is battle tested and will be ready to fight. I love a challenge and I’m embracing it.”

 

 

 

Dutchover’s confidence is a direct result of the high-level sparring he receives on a routine basis from the many top-notch gyms in the Los Angeles area.

 

 

 

“I’ve been in with some of the top names in the sport and they all teach me something different,” Dutchover said. “Danny Roman, Oscar Valdez and Jessie Magdaleno are a few that come to mind. They are incredible boxers and good people too. I’m fortunate to have met them this early in my career.”

 

 

 

All fights will be live streamed on via our Facebook pagina.

 

 

 

De livestream begint om 8:00 p.m. PT / 11:00 p.m. ET with Beto Duran as the blow-by-blow announcer and Josesito Lopez providing expert, kleurrijk commentaar.
