Сан - Хуан, ПУЕРТОРІКО - березень 4, 2021 - Колишній претендент на титул чемпіона світу Брендон Адамс здобув найбільшу перемогу у своїй кар'єрі приголомшливим технічним нокаутом восьмого раунду, щоб засмутити зірку "синіх фішок" Сергія Богачука у головній події інавгурації Ring City USA 2021 подія від тренажерного залу Фелікса Поган-Пінтор у Гвайнабо, Пуерто-Ріко, і жити на NBC Sports Network.

Незважаючи на блимаючий атлетизм і швидкі руки протягом усього бою, Адамс (23-3, 15 КО) був на всіх трьох табелях (68-64 x2, 69-63) під час зупинки. 31-річний хлопець програв усі три раунди, спрямовуючись у восьмий кадр, коли розв'язав ідеально розміщений контратак, який завдав болю Богачуку, що створило можливість висадити сенсаційний лівий гачок, який вперше у своїй професійній кар'єрі відправив Богачука на полотно.

“Він був жорстким хлопцем,- сказав Адамс. “Він вивів з мене ще одну сторону, про яку я знав, що всередині. Сьогодні ввечері мені довелося глибоко копатись і використати всю силу, яку мені довелося зв’язати одним із тих ударів з гармати ».

Адамс, хто родом з Уотса, Каліфорнія, є першим бійцем, який повернувся до серії Ring City USA на NBC Sports Network з моменту його створення в листопаді 2020. У двох заходах боксерської серії в четвер ввечері, він забив два рішучі нокаути у виступах на головній події. Спочатку поєдинок Адамса з Бохачуком був запланований на грудень, але його опонент був змушений знятися після позитивного тесту на COVID-19. Адамс продовжив зупинку Сонні Дуверсонна у другому раунді цього заходу в боксерському клубі Wild Card у Лос-Анджелесі.

“Сьогодні ввечері там була справжня жорстка боротьба,- продовжив Адамс. “Кільце було мокрим; сьогодні суд був проти мене. Це була гостра битва. Я вибуховий боєць, і я не міг цим скористатися, бо не мав під собою ніг, бо кільце було мокрим. Але хоч мене дратували, шоу має тривати. Я професіонал. Я повинен зрозуміти, як отримати W, і це те, що мені потрібно було зробити. Я вдячний за перемогу. Я любив Пуерто-Рико, всі тут обійняли мене любов’ю ".

Богачук, який родом з Вінниці, Україна, і зараз проживає в Лос-Анджелесі, вступив у бій з незайманим професійним рекордом, виділено його 100% відсоток нокауту через 18 бої. 25-річний юнак відмовився від першого раунду на всіх трьох рахункових картах, але продовжував контролювати темп проти ветерана Адамса протягом більшої частини бою, відрізавши ринг і демонструючи стійку роботу кузова..

“Я думав, що він домінував у бою,”, - сказав головний тренер Богачука Менні Роблес. “Я сказав йому стерегтись того лівого гачка. Я сказав йому, якщо він забере той лівий гачок, тоді він контролюватиме бій. Потрібно пару раундів, щоб Сергій розігрівся, але він виглядав добре, і його захист насправді справді покращувався до того нокауту ".

У спільній головній події вечора, супер-напівлегка перспективаБрайан Шевальє (15-1-1, 12 КО) з Bayamon, Пуерто-Ріко, забив вражаючий нокаут третього раунду протиКарлос Замбрано (26-2, 11 КО). Шевальє, 26, повернувся на ринг після 15-місячного звільнення, проте не показав жодних ознак іржі кільця, оскільки забив швидкий нокдаун у першому раунді. У третьому раунді, він забив спинні нокаути, виділений ударом лівої руки до середньої частини, який направив Замбрано Перу на полотно і не зміг перемогти графа.

“Сьогодні ввечері я мав висоту та перевагу серед молоді, але він мав досвід,- сказав Шевальє. “Мені довелося з’ясувати, що він збирається принести та адаптувати, щоб отримати перемогу. Я дуже задоволений своїм виступом. Я найкращий 126-фунтовий в усьому Пуерто-Рико ".

Відкриття телетрансляції на NBC Sports Network, Пуерто-РікоДаніеліто Зоррілла (15-0, 11 КО) та КазахстануРуслан Мадієв (13-2, 5 КО) вступив у захоплюючий туди-сюди бій. 28-річний Мадієв привів бій до Зорілли з невпинним тиском, тоді як тактична "Зорілла" добре протидіяла. У п'ятому турі, Мадієву було закріплено очко за удар кулаком у голову та в 1:16 восьмого туру, арбітр Янні Гомес оголосив зупинку поєдинку через черговий удар рукою за голову, що було визнано випадковим фолом. 27-річний Зоррілла здобув перемогу в технічному рішенні, оскільки дві карти рахунків віддали перевагу пуерториканцю (77-75, 77-74) тоді як третій був підрахований на користь Мадієва (76-73). Неофіційний бомбардир Ring City Стів Смогер бачив бій 76-75 на користь Зоррілли.

«Руслан якраз отримував свій паз,”, - сказав головний тренер Джоел Діас після бою. «Він зміцнювався після п’ятого раунду, а Зоррілла втомлювався. Він продовжував обіймати Руслана протягом більшої частини бою. Особисто, Я думаю, що Зоррілла хотів вийти з бою ".

Мадієв швидко вийшов з рингу після оголошення рішення, але Діас висловив свою думку щодо закінчення поєдинку.

"Він не постраждав, він хороший актор,”, - продовжив Діас. «Зоррілла повинен бути актором мильної опери. Ми виграли цей бій, і це нечесно для мого бійця, тому що він вклав цю роботу. Але що поробиш? Ми повинні рухатися вперед ".

На даний момент Даніеліто Зоррілла перебуває у стабільному стані і після сутички був доставлений до лікарні для проведення планових тестів.

Раніше ввечері, жити в США. та у всьому світі на Twitch, Ring City USA представив три бої в чотири раунди.

“З кожним поєдинком, Я буду продовжувати рости і слухати свого батька,- сказав Варгас, Молодший. “Це був лише мій другий професійний бій. Ми шукали нокауту, але TKO в порядку. Я встановлював свій удар, щоб дистанціюватися, а потім розв'язав ліву руку ".

У своєму рідному місті Гуайнабо, Пуерто-Ріко, Лагуна Гарольда (2-0, 2 KO) працював на тілі рано і часто на шляху до перемоги у нокауті першого раунду надДарвін Альварес (0-1).

Ring City USA Events Will Air Live Thursday Nights at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT on NBCSN in the United States and Streaming Around the World on Twitch 

Los Angeles – January 29, 2021 – Ring City USA, the new sports media startup that debuted its Thursday night boxing series in November 2020 on NBC Sports Network, announced today the first two events of 2021 will be held on Thursday, Березня 4 and Thursday, Березня 18, live from Puerto Rico. Both events will be televised in the United States on NBC Sports Network and the NBC Sports app on Thursday nights at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT with undercard action streaming live on Twitch. The full card will be available on Twitch outside of the United States.

The return of Ring City USA features two highly competitive matchups with fighters at unique junctures of their professional boxing careers. Березня 4, undefeated blue-chip rising starSerhii Bohachuk (18-0, 18 КО) meets former middleweight title challengerБрендон Адамс (22-3, 13 КО) in a 10-round super welterweight main event. Two weeks later on March 18, Ring City presents the next chapter in the Puerto Rico vs. Mexico ring rivalry when former super featherweight world titlistАльберто Machado(22-2, 18 КО) faces undefeatedrising prospect Hector Tanajara(19-0, 5 КО) in a 10-round lightweight main event. Ring City’s events in March will be broadcast live from Puerto Rico as the company continues to tap into boxing’s rich historical locations.

The fight between Bohachuk and Adams was originally scheduled to top the December 3 Ring City event at Wild Card Boxing Club in Los Angeles but Bohachuk was forced to withdraw after testing positive for COVID-19.

“We are thrilled to kick off 2021 with two crossroads main event fights in Puerto Rico,” said Head of Boxing Evan Rutkowski. “Serhii Bohachuk has been chomping at the bit to get back in the ring and on March 4 he will meet the most dangerous opponent of his career in Brandon Adams. Then two weeks later we are right back on NBC Sports Network and Twitch with rising undefeated prospect Hector Tanajara battling former world champion Alberto Machado of Puerto Rico in a classic Mexico vs. Puerto Rico rivalry fight.”

The hard-hitting Bohachuk, who is currently ranked seventh by the WBC and ninth by the IBF at 154 фунти, has steamrolled through opposition on his way to an 18-0 запис, all of which have come via knockout. Training with Manny Robles out of Legends Boxing Academy, the 25-year-old proved himself with a knockout win over Tyrone Brunson in October of 2019. Зовсім недавно, he put on an electric performance in September 2020 when he knocked out Alejandro Davila in six rounds. The Ukrainian-born Bohachuk, who is promoted by Tom Loeffler’s 360 Promotions and Ural Boxing, continues to take the Southern California boxing world by storm with his dominant performances in the ring and magnetic personality out of the ring.

“I’m looking forward to defending my title against Brandon Adams on March 4 in Puerto Rico on NBC Sports Network,” said Bohachuk. “I want to thank Ring City and my promoters for this opportunity. This should be a great fight for the fans. I am sorry we couldn’t do it in December, but now people are talking even more about this fight. I will put on another exciting show for the fans.”

Following Bohachuk’s positive COVID-19 result, Adams went on to face Sonny Duversonne in Ring City’s main event on Dec. 3. Adams bested Duversonne just miles away from his hometown of Watts, Каліфорнія., with an impressive second-round knockout victory. The battle-tested Adams who works with accomplished trainer Dub Huntley, challenged WBC Middleweight Titleholder Jermall Charlo for the title in 2019 after defeating Shane Mosley Jr. to win the Epix Television Series “The Contender.” Adams boasts a formidable group of sparring partners, including Shawn Porter and Gennadiy Golovkin. Adams started competitively training at age 19, fought his first amateur fight at age 20 and turned professional at age 21. He is promoted by Banner Promotions and Tournament of Contenders.

“I’m looking forward to returning to Ring City in March and showing more growth when Serhii and I finally get to step into the ring in Puerto Rico,- сказав Адамс.

Machado (22-2, 18 КО), who hails from Rio Piedras, Пуерто-Ріко, will fight on the island for the first time since 2017 і 14ї time in his professional career. В 2017, Machado captured the WBA super featherweight world title against Jezreel Corrales via eighth-round knockout. Machado successfully defended the world title twice in 2018 before losing the belt to Andrew Cancio in February 2019. Later in 2019, Machado moved up to lightweight and scored a second-round knockout over Luis Porozo. The 30-year-old is currently ranked 12ї by both the WBA and WBO. The southpaw made a name for himself on the Puerto Rican amateur circuit, competing in the AIBA Youth World Championships and the 2012 Olympic Qualifiers.

“It has been a sad and forced rest due to the Coronavirus but, for me, my body needed this rest. I am excited that after four years I will return to fight again at home in Puerto Rico,” said Machado. “I thank Miguel Cotto Promotions, H2 Promotions, Golden Boy and Ring City USA for giving me this opportunity to headline this great card. Hector Tanajara, Молодший. is a great fighter who seeks to break through in the lightweight division as well. I hope he comes ready and that 135 has my space saved because I belong here and on March 18it will be demonstrated.”

Tanajara (19-0, 5 КО) will take on the toughest test of his career when he meets Machado on his home turf. Born and raised in San Antonio, Техас, Tanajara (19-0, 5 КО) is coming off of fighting in his hometown for the first time in his professional career in January 2020 when he took on former world title challenger Juan Carlos Burgos who he beat convincingly via unanimous decision. The 24-year-old has continued to rise up the lightweight ranks since turning pro in 2015. In Machado, he will face a new challenge by taking on a southpaw fighter for the first time in his 19-fight professional career. Tanajara fights under the tutelage of world-famous trainer Robert Garcia.

“I’m excited to get back in the ring,” said Tanajara. “It has been a little over a year and I’ve been training hard this whole time staying ready for whoever. We finally got an opponent and I’m ready to show the world who I am and what I can do with the top guys in the division.”

Calling all the action ringside in Puerto Rico will be former two-time welterweight champion Shawn Porter joined by NBC Sports blow-by-blow commentator Bob Papa. Brian Campbell will serve as fight night analyst with Curran Bhatia reporting from ringside.

Adams was not in the least intimidated by stepping into enemy territory, but there were a few things that happened during the fight that he did not expect which hindered his gameplan.


“The referee would not let me get low. As you saw during the fight, I was crouching down to get inside, but the referee gave me a warning for doing that. I had to think of a different way to get in there without revealing myself,” continued Adams.


Хоча, the television announcers and many on social media seemed surprised at the gutsy effort from Adams, the Watts, California native was very confident of his abilities as he entered the ring on Saturday night.


“Я почуваю себе добре. I knew I was capable of being on that level. I took out of the fight is that there are a few little things that I can work on and that I could have done in there. I did not know the referee would not let me get low or even let us fight in close as much as I wanted. I felt he would break us a little quickly. I also got hit in the back of the head a couple of times. Fighting in his hometown was tough.”


“I know this fight will help me better myself. Coming out of The Contender, my goal was to fight at 154 фунти, but this was a world title opportunity. I proved that I am on that level at 160, and I will now look for the best opportunities at both 154 and 160.”


“We are very proud of Brandon. He fought very hard and put on a great performance,” said Artie Pelullo of Banner Promotions. “Brandon proved that he is a world class fighter, and now the world has seen what we already knew, that he is on the elite level.

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Hotel ZaZa Museum District in Houston:



Чарлі JERMALL



“Me and my brother Jermell have been through so much in boxing. We’ve been doing it since we were eight-years-old. To make it to this world class level and to do it for Houston, it feels great.



“It’s going to be fireworks. I’m coming for the knockout every time. Houston is hot and the heat is going to be there fight night. I’m going to do what I normally do and give the crowd excitement.



“Ronnie Shields has changed me from being a kid to realizing who I am as a man in the sport of boxing. He’s had world champions before me so I know he can judge my progression. He’s going to make sure I stay at this level.



“I’m walking in the ring and I’m handling my business. This is definitely a step up fight for Brandon Adams, but I’m only worried about what I have to do. I’m just going to prepare to be my best. We’re going to both give it our all and I will be victorious.



“Boxing is about experiences and I’m still learning. I’m going to have my ups and downs, because no fighter is perfect. But I will always prepare myself well and that’s why I’m still undefeated. I needed a fight like my last one to get even better.



“I’m going to finish this fight. My goal is to make quick work of Brandon and show him that there are levels to this. You might be a contender, but it’s another thing to be a champion.



“I get a lot of juice from the hometown crowd. Just having my family there alone is what I really need to get the nerves and excitement to where I need them. I’m going to be comfortable and I’m going to stick to my game plan. I’m not here to make mistakes.



“Thus far camp has been great. I feel awesome and I’m well prepared. It’s an amazing feeling to be fighting in my hometown. It’s almost a dream come true to me. To have my own card at this level and on this stage, it shows the support Houston has for me.”

“It’s not just what I see in Jermall, it’s what I believe in myself. The combo of working with Dub Huntley and Freddie Roach is perfect. They are both seasoned vets and they teach me something new every day.



“I didn’t expect my road to be easy because it’s never been easy for me. I’m on the road and I understand that. I’m prepared to pack my bags and go wherever I need to, so that I can become what I’m supposed to become. The best man will win on June 29.



“Before Претендент I felt that I didn’t have an opportunity to show how good I am. During the whole series it was about getting back in the ring and shaking off the rust, then showcasing who I am.



“Winning Претендент helped get me here, but I always had confidence and believed in myself since day one. In choosing to accept Charlo’s challenge, I had it in my mind that I belong here.



“It was pressure every time I fought on Претендент. Each round were quality opponents leading up to the final and all of that will prepare me for Charlo. He deserves everything he’s gotten and I respect him as a man, but I’m going to take advantage of this opportunity.



“His team didn’t have to fight me, but they chose to. I appreciate his fans coming out to support him because they’ll see both of us. Hopefully I can win some of them over.”



Ронні ЩИТКИ, Тренер Charlo в



“We’ve done a lot of studying of Brandon Adams and he’s a really good fighter. Виграш Претендент is not an easy feat. He’s truly a contender, so we have to make sure we’re working hard every single day.



“We’re not sitting back and waiting for someone to fight us. We have to continue to be busy. You still have to fight hard fights when you’re at the top and that’s what we’re doing. We’re preparing the right way.



“I’m so happy that everybody has come out to support Jermall because he’s been waiting to make his homecoming and this is it. It’s important to see everyone on his side.”



DUB HUNTLEY, Adams’ Trainer



“I hope everybody comes out for this one because it’s going to be a great fight. I’ve been with Brandon for a long time and I know that he’s going to win this fight and put on a memorable performance. Charlo is a great fighter but Brandon has all the tools necessary to come into his hometown and get the victory.”
