Ruben Villa and Michael Dutchover remain undefeated with wins in Ontario, Californië

Voor onmiddellijke publicatie
PHILADELPHIA, PENN./ORANGE, Calif. (Zeven. 25, 2017) – Heralded prospects, vedergewicht Ruben Villa and junior lightweight Michael Dutchover remained perfect with unanimous decision victories this past Vrijdag night in Ontario, Californië.
Ruben Villa (8-0, 4 KO) van Salinas, Calif. displayed his superior talent by out boxing veteran Ernesto Guerrero (26-20, 18 KO) of Mexico through six rounds. Villa swept all three scorecards (60-54) to continue an impressive start to his young career.

In what was perhaps his toughest test to date, Villa performed admirably and displayed his quickness by darting in and out of danger, all the while landing power shots to the head and body.

We had a game plan for Guerrero, and we executed it perfectly,” Villa zei. “We gave him different looks and fought him from different angles. I don’t think he ever got comfortable.

Villa wordt bevorderd door Banner Promoties en Thompson Boksen.

Nederlands Over (6-0, 4 KO) van Midland, Tex. knocked down Mexico’s Carlos Flores (4-6-1, 3 KO) in the opening round to get things going on his way to a unanimous decision sweep (40-35).

In de strijd, Dutchover snapped his left jab to set up an inside attack that left Flores bruised and battered by the fourth round.

I had a lot of success working off the jab,” Said Dutchover, who is co-promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing. “I’m happy with the win. I’ll rest for a little, and then I’ll be back in the gym working to get better.

Michael Dutchover Dishes on Sparring Sessions with Oscar Valdez & Jessie Magdaleno

Voor onmiddellijke publicatie
ORANJE, Calif. (Zeven. 21, 2017) – Top junior lightweight prospect Michael Dutchover (5-0, 4 KO) marks his return to the ring deze vrijdag nacht tegen Carlos Flores (4-5-1, 3 KO) in a featured 6-round bout on the “Nieuw bloed” undercard.

The five-fight show, promoted by Thompson Boxing Promotions, takes place at the Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Californië.

Tickets voor “Nieuw bloed” zijn geprijsd op $40, $60, & $100 en zijn beschikbaar voor aankoop door te bellen naar 714-935-0900, or visiting ThompsonBoxing.com.

Nederlands Over, an accomplished amateur who earned a bronze medal at the U.S. Olympic Trials in 2015 and a runner-up finish at the National Golden Gloves competition a year later, turned professional last year and already possesses a fan friendly style.

Thompson Boxing caught up the with Midland, Tex. native and got his take on relocating to the Los Angeles area, what it was like to spar with two world champions, and his outlook op vrijdag gevecht.

Your training camp was unlike any other in that you sparred against world champions Oscar Valdez and Jessie Magdaleno, as well as blue-chip prospect Michael Conlan. What was it like going against such high-level talent?

Sparring against world champions elevates your game and boosts your confidence tremendously. I held my own the first few sessions with Oscar and Jessie and they called me back for other sessions. These guys expect solid work so I was glad that they brought me back. I’m gaining experience from some of the best so it’s awesome. It was also great sparring with Michael. With those three I was able to see different styles that will help me in my development.

Your opponent Carlos Flores has had an uneven career. How do you get up for a fight where you are the clear favorite?

You can’t think that every fight is going to be easy. If you’re not ready for a fight then anyone can make you look bad. This sport is unforgiving in that way. I’m going to be on my “Een” game and it will show Vrijdag.”

Earlier this year you made the decision to relocate to the Los Angeles area and leave your hometown of Midland, Tex. What has been the toughest part of this move?

I’m doing what I love to do and that always involves sacrifices. The most difficult part is being away from friends and family and being far from home. I knew moving to Los Angeles was the right choice because if you want to get better, especially in the lower weight classes, this area is the place to be. On any given day you can spar with contenders and world champions so it’s been great for me.

How do you see Friday’s fight going down?

I can predict a solid win for me and my team. I’m going to let my punches go and just be active. I’ll work off the jab to open things up and I’m going to show an improved defense. I’m going to look the best I’ve looked so far. That much I know.

Dutchover is promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing.

All five fights will be livestreamed on TB Presents: New Blood via our Facebook page and ThompsonBoxing.com.

De livestream begint om 8:00 p.m. PT / 11:00 p.m. EN with Beto Duran as the blow-by-blow announcer and Steve Kim providing expert color commentary.

Elite Prospect Ruben Villa Battles Veteran Ernesto Guerrero Friday Night in Ontario, ZOALS

Voor onmiddellijke publicatie
ORANJE, Calif. (Zeven. 20, 2017) – Ruben Villa (7-0, 4 KO), one of the featherweight division’s brightest young talents, takes the next step in his development by clashing with veteran Ernesto Guerrero (26-19, 18 KO) in one of two highly anticipated match-ups op vrijdag “Nieuw bloed” undercard.

The 6-round bout takes place at the Doubletree Hotel in Ontario, Calif.
Tickets voor “Nieuw bloed” zijn geprijsd op $40, $60, & $100 en zijn beschikbaar voor aankoop door te bellen naar 714-935-0900 or visiting ThompsonBoxing.com.

Villa, a southpaw fighting out of Salinas, Calif., turned professional last July and already has produced seven one-sided wins. His opponent for Friday, Mexico’s Guerrero, is no push over. Guerrero has won his last five fights, four of which ended in knockout fashion.

Guerrero’s a veteran so we’ve been extra serious in this camp,” zei Villa. “My team believes that I can take him out. My team wouldn’t set me up against an opponent that I wouldn’t be able to handle so I feel ready for this challenge.

Villa, 20, loaded up on top-level sparring to help bridge the experience gap between him and Guerrero. He spent three weeks in Indio, Calif. sparring against elite competition such as unbeaten, world title contender Joseph Diaz.

The way Diaz puts his punches together was really impressive,” zei Villa, die wordt bevorderd door Banner Promoties en Thompson Boksen. “Het was een geweldige leerervaring voor mij. It’s not every day you get to spar with someone with that high of a skill level.

In addition to the knowledge learned from the Diaz sessions, Villa is attempting to sharpen his mental focus for his fight against Guerrero.

I need to be more intelligent in the ring,” Villa zei. “I’ve been a little reckless listening to the crowd and taking unnecessary risks. We sparred against bigger guys during this training camp to help me stay disciplined.

Ook op de “Nieuw bloed” undercard, advanced junior lightweight prospect Michael Dutchover (5-0, 4 KO), who is a close friend and occasional sparring partner to Villa, gevechten Carlos Flores (4-5-1, 3 KO) in bout set for 6-rounds.

Like Villa, Dutchover comes from an outstanding amateur career and also shares the same promotional outfits in Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing.

All five fights will be livestreamed on TB Presents: New Blood via Thompson Boxing Facebook page and ThompsonBoxing.com.

De livestream begint om 8:00 p.m. PT / 11:00 p.m. EN with Beto Duran as the blow-by-blow announcer and Steve Kim providing expert color commentary.

LANG STRAND, Calif. (Juli 30, 2017) – Ongeslagen vedergewicht vooruitzicht Tramaine “De machtige dwerg” Williams made a major statement last night (Zaterdag, Juli 29), dropping former world title challenger WilliamChirizo” Gonzalez three times in the opening round of a sensational performance in the “KO Night Boksen” Rumble on the Water 2″ main event, which aired live on CBS Sports Network from The Queen Mary’s outdoor venue in Long Beach, Californië.

“KO Night Boksen: Rumble on the Water 2” was presented by Black Tree, and promoted by Roy Englebrecht Promotions, in samenwerking met KO Night Boxing LLC en Roc Nation Sports.
…..and the end for William Gonzalez
The 5′ 4″ Williams (12-0, 5 KO), fighting out of New Haven (CT), exploded with pin-point accuracy, also displaying his new-found power, dropping Gonzalez 30-8, 26 KO), of Nicaragua, three time in the first round. The crafty southpaw finished off his more experienced opponent with a perfectly placed right-left combination, right on the button, for his third and final knockdown. Referee Raul Caiz, Jr. waved off the action, not bothering to count, as Gonzalez lay vertical on his back in dire straits.
I prepared well for this fight and anything can happen when I work hard,” Williams remarked after his third consecutive knockout victory. “I felt his power early with a body shot but I stayed focused.
I can deal with anybody in my division. I want to fight Lee Selby (IBF featherweight world champion), or any of the world champions, but none will fight me. I really want Gary Russell (WBC champion); Ik ben hier, Gary. It’ll be target practice for me.
In de co-functie, highly touted super middleweight prospect Junior “De jonge God” Younan (13-0, 9 KO) bleef ongeslagen, winning a close eight-round decision against tough Mike “The Menace” Guy, van Sacramento (ZOALS), the former California State champion. (9-3-1, 5 KO) Guy was penalized a point for tossing Younan to the mat at the end of round six or the result would have been a majority draw.
In his first eight-round fight, the 21-year-old Younan gained invaluable experience fighting the non-stop Guy, who kept coming forward, throwing punches from all angles, at his Brooklyn opponent.

Junior Younan (R) had a learning experience in victory against Mike Guy
You can’t learn if you don’t go rounds,” Younan correctly noted after the fight. “I’m only going to improve. Guy kept moving forward the entire fight. There were a couple of things that bothered me, but I went eight hard rounds and won. Thank you to Mike Guy for that.
Former Winthrop College (SC) basketbalspeler Jonnie Rice (7-2-1, 4 KO), uitvechten van Los Angeles, opened the televised broadcast with a convincing six-round unanimous decision over RodneyKing Corso” Hernandez (10-6-2, 2 KO), van Fresno (ZOALS).
I thought I did real well against a good opponent,” former power forward Rice said after the fightHe’s an athlete, getting better each fight. He’s not the same fighter he was a year ago. I’m becoming more strategic, working on my jab to get better. Basketball players need good footwork like Chris Paul and Lebron James. I’m working to bring my footwork from basketball to boxing,”
Woonplaats favoriet Raul Calderon (1-0) pitched a shutout over Eric Gomez (0-1), winning a four-round unanimous decision (40-36 X 3), in a battle of pro-debuting Californians. In the walkout-fight, Los Angeles featherweight Sergio “De jongen” Quiroz verbeterd 4-0 with a four-round unanimous decision over Lupe Arrotyo (2-7).

LANG STRAND. Calif.

(Juli 24, 2017) – Former junior boxing prodigy and undefeated professional prospect, ongeslagen Junior “De jonge God” Younan, will be showcased in the “KO Night Boksen: Rumble on the Water 2” co-feature deze zaterdag (Juli 29), luchten (10 p.m. EN / 7 p.m. PT) op CBS Sports Network, live vanuit de openluchtlocatie van The Queen Mary in Long Beach, Californië. The Queen Mary will be hosting its first pro boxing show.

The 21-year-old Younan (12-0, 9 KO), uitvechten van Brooklyn, takes on former USA California super middleweight champion Mike Guy (9-2-1, 5 KO), van Sacramento (ZOALS), in the eight-round co-featured event.
This will be a coming out party for me,” Younan said. “I’m going to go out there and try to make a statement. It’s been a great start to the yearit’s my third fight this yearand I feel like I’m getting better and better each one.
In the night’s 10-round main event, ongeslagen vedergewicht vooruitzicht Tramaine “De machtige dwerg” Williams (11-0, 4 KO), van New Haven (CT), squares off against former world title challenger WilliamChirizo” Gonzalez (30-7, 26 KO), of Nicaragua.
“KO Night Boksen: Rumble on the Water 2”, presented by Black Tree, wordt gepromoot door Roy Englebrecht Promotions, in samenwerking met KO Night Boxing LLC en Roc Nation Sports.
Fighting under the Roc Nation banner, Younan was a highly-decorated amateur boxer, compiling an outstanding 90-5 record. Given his success, Younan elected to turn pro in 2013 as an 18-year-old, rather than wait several years for an opportunity to qualify for the U.S. Olympisch Boksen Team.
Younan started boxing competitively as an eight-year-old and, alleen twee jaar later, The New York Times crowned him aboxing prodigy”. During his impressive amateur career, he collected several belts, medals and awards, including nine championship performances in the Junior Olympics as well as the Junior Metros, eight in the New York State Silver Gloves, and five more in the Regional Silver Gloves. He was also a four-time National Silver Gloves recipient, three-time Ringside World winner, three-time National PAL, and two-time National Junior Golden Gloves champion. In 2011, he was crowned the National Junior Golden Gloves champion, in addition to being USA Boxing’s No. 1-rated junior boxer in his weight class.

Nagging injuries somewhat curtailed Younan’s development, limiting him to one fight in 2015. After a nine-month layoff, he returned triumphantly on March 26, 2016 to defeat Cristian Solorzano, van Sonora, Mexico, op de Andre Ward vs. Sullivan Barrera undercard at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Californië. With a win by way of a four-round unanimous decision, Younan improved his unblemished record to 8-0.

Three of Younan’s last four fights have ended in the opening round, including his most recent on Juni 17 on the Andre Ward-Sergey Kovalev 2 undercard at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. The Brooklyn bomber made quick work of the Hungarian veteran Zoltan Sera (28-14, 20 KO) bij de 1:39 mark.

It was an amazing experience for me as a 21-year-old to fight in Vegas on Andre Ward’s card,” Younan added. “Coming off that knockout, I have great momentum and confidence heading into this fight. I can’t wait.
California heavyweights Rodney Hernandez (10-5-2, 2 KO), van Modesto, and Los AngelesJonnie Rice (6-2-1, 4 KO), een voormalig Winthrop College (SC) basketbalspeler, will open the televised segment of the card in a six-round bout.

Ruben Villa remains undefeated with 5th round stoppage in Ontario, Californië

Voor onmiddellijke publicatie

ORANJE, Calif. (Mei 22, 2017) – Top featherweight prospect Ruben Villa (6-0, 4 KO) continues to impress early in his professional career. Villa, a southpaw fighting out of Salinas, Calif., picked apart Anthony de Jesus Ruiz (2-3, 2 KO) to win by fifth round technical knockout.
Villa, who was naturally bigger than Ruiz, unloaded a serious of damaging shots in the fifth round. By that point, Ruiz had already absorbed a great deal of punishment and his corner wisely put an end to the onslaught at the 2:43 mark.
My jab was working well all night,” zei Villa, who is promoted by Thompson Boxing and Banner Promotions. “I worked off backing him up with the jab and then that opened up a lot of angles for me to land power shots.
Ruben looked fantastic op vrijdagnacht,” zei Ken Thompson, voorzitter van Thompson Boksen. “He looked really comfortable and was in firm control of the fight from start to finish. He managed to fight a patient, yet aggressive fight to secure another knockout win.
