Boxing saved the life of Two-Division World Champion “El Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera

Lascia un commento

COLORADO SPRINGS, Giro. (Giugno 4, 2020) – Like many boxers, campione del mondo due divisioni "Il Gallo" Jose Antonio Rivera credits boxing for saving his life.

“Absolutely,” Rivera agreed. “After my mom passed away when I was 10 anni, I gave up on life and my decision-making reflected that: hanging around with the wrong crowd including gang members, consuming alcohol between the ages of 10 and 15. I was definitely going in the wrong direction.

“I never thought I had a future until I started boxing. It’s hard to say what I’d be doing if I had never boxed, but by the way I was living, I’d probably be in jail or dead by now.”

Born in Philadelphia, Rivera lived in Puerto Rico and Springfield, MA, prior to him moving to Worcester, MA, where he met a man who helped change his life, Carlos Garcia, who was in charge of a special boxing program at the Worcester Boys & girls Club.

Rivera had started boxing at the age of 14 ½ in a basement with his friend, Felix Lopez.  He had fallen in love with boxing after watchingRoberto Duran rovesciato"Zucchero" Ray Leonard in their first fight. The young Puerto Rican-American specifically used his amateur boxing experience to prepare for the professional ranks. Garcia, who is in the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame, put him in a novice match after only one amateur fight in order to put Rivera on the fast track, because he understood that Rivera dreamed of becoming a world champion as a professional. Rivera finished with a 35-15 registrare amatoriale, highlighted by a bronze medal performance at the PAL Nationals.

“I never had big amateur aspirations but, naturalmente, I wanted to win every fight I competed in,” Rivera said. “Once I didn’t qualify for the Olympic Trials, my plan was to turn pro. I didn’t know how much the amateurs would groom me to be a successful professional boxer. I’m glad I listened to my coaches, otherwise I would have turned pro earlier, because I would get frustrated with the politics of the amateurs. I hated losing, but I hated losing even more when I knew that I should have won. After three years together (with Garcia) in the amateurs and gaining a great wealth of experience traveling all over New England, the country and even fighting in Canada, I saw all types of styles and talented boxers that helped me as a pro. Carlos is like a father figure to me and during all of our training and travels, he was always in my head, building me up to become a good boxer, but also to help me become a better man.”

Novembre 7, 1992, Rivera made his pro debut, buttando giùFrancisco Mercedes in the second round. He went on to win his first 23 pro bouts, including the Massachusetts State welterweight title in 1995. His first pro loss was to veteran Philadelphia fighterWillie Wise (20-3-4), who won a controversial 10-round split decision at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut. Rivera had proven that he was more than a prospect in his first loss, losing a close decision (98-95, 94-97, 94-96) to an opponent that upset Mexican iconJulio Cesar Chavez (102-3-2) only three years later.

Showing the same resiliency that stayed with Rivera his entire career, two fights later Rivera stoppedGilberto Flores in two rounds to capture the International Boxing Organization (IBO) world welterweight championship. Rivera extended his new win streak to seven, before losing back to back fights. Four fights later, anche se, Rivera registered his first statement victory in 2001, buttando giùFrankie Randall (55-10-1) nel 10th round to retain his North American Boxing Association (Anche) crown in his first defense.

Now promoted by legendary Don King, Rivera traveled across the Atlantic Ocean in September 2003 to Germany, where few Americans were able to win. Rivera proved early that he meant business, dropping previously undefeatedMichel Trabant in the second round en route to winning a 12-round majority decision for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA).  His reign, tuttavia, didn’t last long. In his first defense, Rivera lost a 12-round split decision at home in Worcester to challengerLuis Collazo (24-1)

Rivera moved up one weight class for his next fight, showing the resiliency that was a staple during his career for his next fight, also at home, against WBA junior middleweight World championAlexandro Garcia (25-1).

In his next fight and first defense of his third world title, Rivera was stopped for the first time in his pro career, by new champTravis Simms (24-0), and then he was knocked out byDaniel Santos (24-0) in round eight of their WBA junior middleweight title eliminator.

Rivera retired in 2008 only to make a comeback in 2001, after which he retired again until returning for two fights in Worcester to complete his pro career with 50 combattimenti, the last coming at the age of 46.

“Jose’s USA Boxing experiences shaped him into the man of character he is today, dentro e fuori dal ring,"Ha dettoChris Tofflemire, USA Boxing Alumni Director. “He took the road less traveled for a world champion, and in doing so he showcased his toughness and perseverance that made him a great example for today’s USA Boxers.”

Rivera was a true working world champion. Few world champions also had full-time jobs during their title reigns. Rivera used vacation time, as well as personal and sick days, when he went to training camp for some of his major fights.

“I always had a good work ethic growing up,” he explained. “When I moved to Worcester at 16 anni, I lived by myself: school, work, and then to the Boys & Girls Club to train. I kept the same work ethic I had at 19 when I turned pro. I became a father at 20, so providing for my family was essential. Although it was hard, I knew boxing wasn’t going to last forever, and I was lucky enough to find a good job working for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Trial Courts. It made for long days when I was training, especially when I was fighting for or defending my world championships. In the end, anche se, keeping my job was the best decision I could have made for me and my family.”

Rivera. who was an Associate Court Officer for years and promoted last year to Assistant Chief Court Officer, is still involved in boxing. He and his oldest son, A.J. Rivera, own and operate a boxing promotional company, Rivera Promotions Entertainment, to give young fighters in his area opportunities to fight more often and at home. Jose occasionally drops by the Boys & Girls Club to visit his former coaches, Garcia andRocky Gonzalez, to support their young talent. He also goes to his friendKendrick Ball’s gym, Camp Be Right, to give young fighters there a few tips and to keep in shape (not for another comeback).

Jose Antonio Rivera will be best known for his toughness and determination, which led him into a different life, including three world championships and a wonderful life he never would have enjoyed.

Unhappy birthday coming up for undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz

Lascia un commento

WORCESTER, Massa. (Aprile 15, 2020) – Even in his wildest dreams, undefeated World Boxing Council (WBC) Youth World lightweight championJamaine "The Technician" Ortiz (13-0, 7 KO) never could have ever imagined that his 24th compleanno, later this month, would fall smack in the middle of a worldwide health pandemic

When he turns 24 aprile 28th, Ortiz figured he’d be preparing for training camp with a spring fight date set, likely defending his WBC Youth World title of fighting for a regional belt of some sort.

He certainly didn’t think boxing would be banned around the world, gyms closed by a state mandate, and people wearing facemasks and plastic gloves like they’re in a Sci-Fi movie. E, to boot, his job as a licensed carpenter ended closed shop last Friday. Like everybody else in the Bay State.

Ortiz is basically self-quarantined at home, although he’s still running, formazione, eating well and doing everything else to maintain decent shape. Not elite boxing shape, anche se, which simply isn’t possible under these restrictive and trying times.

Instead of sparring, he’s shadow boxing, jumping rope has replaced pad-work with his trainers, Rocky Gonzalez eCarlos Garcia, and now his living room serves as hisPalestra.

Times have been dramatically altered, davvero, even celebrating birthdays, which Jamaine fully understands and accepts.

“I don’t think my birthday will be any different,” Ortiz said. “I usually spend it alone with my mother and daughter (4-year-old Amira) and this year probably won’t be any different. I won’t be able to get in a whole bunch of sparring rounds that I usually ask for (risata) as presents from some of my friends.“

Fortunatamente, anche se, Ortiz was able to fight this past February 28 in his first action in six months, headlining a CES Boxing-promoted card at home in Worcester, Massachusetts, in which he registered an impressive second-round stoppage of Mexican knockout specialist“Loco” Luis Ronaldo Castillo (22-6, 17 KO), a former WBC FECOMBOX lightweight champion.

Ortiz, presently rated No. 16 by the North American Boxing Federation (NABF), aspires to attend medical school after he hangs up his gloves for good, to become a doctor/researcher. He reads a lot about medicine, especially holistic treatments, and he believes that he may have already had the coronavirus.

“Five weeks before my last fight,” he explained, “I was in the hospital with a temperature of 104.5. Just about everybody I knew was sick, my grandmother had pneumonia. I never really get sick. I had a flu shot for seven years without an issue. I developed a cough, too. I felt like I was going to die. I can’t say with certainty I had coronavirus (there was no test available then), but I feel like I may have had it.”

Ortiz will be ready for the night the ring bell will finally sound again. “I hope to be fighting again in July or August, ma, no matter when boxing returns, I’ll be ready to go.

“This is a serious, contagious disease. People should use common sense: wash your hands, stay separated by six feet, and stay at home, especially the elderly and people with respiratory problems. Don’t take any unnecessary risks or panic, either. This isn’t the end of the world!"

Best Kept campione dei pesi leggeri WBC Segreto Imbattuto Mondiale della Gioventù Boxing Jamaine “Il tecnico” Ortiz

Lascia un commento
WORCESTER, Massa. (Novembre 5, 2019) – campione dei pesi leggeri imbattuto World Boxing Mondiale della Gioventù Jamaine “Il tecnico” Ortiz (12-0, 6 KO) è, forse, la migliore prospettiva del mondo che la maggior parte degli appassionati di boxe non sanno.

Una gran parte del problema, tuttavia, è che il 23-year-old Ortiz, nato e cresciuto nei combattimenti città di Worcester, MA, mai aspirato ad essere un pugile professionista, pur avendo una carriera amatoriale decorato.

Ha iniziato la boxe quando aveva sei anni, grazie alla Nazionale Golden Gloves Hall of Fame allenatore Carlos Garcia, che ha eseguito il programma di boxe ai ragazzi Worcester & Girls Club per quasi 40 anni.

L'Ortiz naturalmente dotati compilato un eccezionale 100-14 registrare amatoriale, evidenziato da un argento al 2015 Golden Gloves Torneo Nazionale, in cui ha perso in finale di campionato al futuro campione del mondo professionale joselito Lopez, prestazioni medaglia d'oro oltre a back-to-back al torneo New England of Champions in 2015 & 2016.

Testimonianza di Ortiz’ potenziale promettente è stata la sua ultima partita amatoriale, che era una solida vittoria contro Abraham “Eccellente” Nova, che è 17-0 (13 KO) come un professionista, così come il campione in carica North American Boxing Association, e valutato dal World Boxing Association (WBA) come il No. 8 super-piuma nel mondo.

“Girando pro non era il mio obiettivo finale,” pugile consumato Ortiz detto. “In realtà non era nella mia mente. Mi sono concentrato sui tornei regionali e nazionali. Ho sempre pensato che avrei vinto una medaglia d'oro olimpica e poi diventare professionista. Vorrei che mi era stato meglio preparati a diventare professionista.

“Le persone che mi conoscono non si rendono nemmeno conto che ero diventato professionista. C'è voluto un po 'prima ho regolato, ma non ho mai transitioned. Altri avevano un piano di gioco; Non ho avuto un indizio, ma ben presto i trofei che ho vinto realizzati nei dilettanti non stavano andando per pagare le bollette. La maggior parte dei miei fan oggi sono altri combattenti e pullman.”

Quando il suo sogno olimpico si è conclusa, dopo aver perso in semifinale dei Trials olimpici, È stato allora che il suo promotore, Jimmy Burchfield (Classic Spettacolo e Sport / CES), e co-consulente, Provvidenza uomo d'affari Richard Shappy è stato coinvolto in Ortiz’ carriera da professionista. Hanno investito tempo, denaro ed energia, credere in Ortiz e il suo enorme potenziale.

“Per anni,” spiegato Shappy, che consiglia Ortiz insieme Eddie Imondi,” Continuavo a dire a Jimmy (Burchfield) che ero interessato a farsi coinvolgere con un pugile, ma che doveva essere quella giusta. Un giorno Jimmy ha chiamato per dire questo (Ortiz) è l'unico. Ho saltato a bordo. Mi ha convinto che Jamaine è un futuro campione del mondo. Abbiamo saltato in dal suo primo combattimento, al piano terra, e crediamo che sta per essere campione del mondo.”

Burchfield ha promosso artisti del calibro di campione del mondo cinque volte Vinny Paz, U.S. OlimpionicoJason Estrada, Ray Oliveira, Gary Balletto, Peter Manfredo, Jr. e molti altri durante i suoi 25 e più anni nel settore della boxe. “Jamaine è il migliore che abbia promosso dal Vinny Paz,” Burchfield ha affermato senza esitazione. “E 'uno dei migliori prospettive nel mondo di oggi e un giorno lui sarà campione del mondo. Alcuni dicono che ha il bell'aspetto diOscar de la Hoya; gli altri si sentono il suo stile è come quella di ‘Zucchero’ Ray Leonard.”

Quando il suo sogno olimpico senza troppe cerimonie conclusa, ha deciso di diventare professionista in 2016, vincendo il suo debutto pro quando Josh Parker si ritirò dopo un round. Il punto culminante della sua giovane carriera pro fino ad oggi era vincere una decisione unanime otto round lo scorso febbraio da precedenza imbattuto (10-0) Ricardo Quiroz per catturare il titolo leggero WBC Mondiale della Gioventù vacante, la stessa cintura una volta orgogliosamente indossato da, ironicamente, il suddetto Lopez, così come Juan Diaz e Daniel Estrada.

Past CES-promosse combattenti che sono stati campioni del mondo WBC giovani comprendono campione del mondo tre volte “Cattivo” Chad Dawson e dei pesi massimi polacco Maruisz Wach.

Nel suo ultimo incontro e la prima difesa del titolo WBC Mondiale della Gioventù lo scorso agosto, Ortiz ha vinto una decisione unanime che domina otto round su 8-1-1 Romain Couture, pitching uno shutout vincendo ogni turno su tutti e tre i giudici’ scorecard.

Ortiz’ il tempo di stella sul ring è in arrivo. Lui è un diamante grezzo; giovane, di talento e con enorme rialzo. Ha una squadra forte dietro di lui, tra cui capo allenatore Rocky Gonzalez e Garcia, che sta ancora lavorando il suo angolo

Ortiz’ fan-base finirà per svilupparsi e crescere in fretta come i fan sempre più la boxe scoprire questo boxer dotato come lui sale alla cima della montagna boxe.
2020 promette di essere il “Anno del tecnico,” Jamaine Ortiz.

Jose Antonio Rivera Dedicates “Quest For 50” to Worcester Boys & girls Club

Lascia un commento

(L-R) – Jose Antonio Rivera, current WBC Youth super lightweight champion Jermaine Ortiz
(11-0, 6 KO) and Carlos Garcia


WORCESTER, MASSA (Maggio 16, 2019) – Tre volte, campione del mondo due divisioni “Il Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera is dedicating his 50th lotta pro, the last in his hometown of Worcester, to the Boys & Girls Club in Worcester, Massachusetts. A portion of the proceeds from “Quest For 50,” presented by Shearns Boxing Promotions (SBP) and Rivera Promotions Entertainment, will benefit the Boys & girls Club.

The 46-year-old Rivera (42-6-1, 25 KO) faces former WFC champion Travis “Sweet Feet” Scott (19-5, 5 KO), of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in the eight-round main event at The Palladium in Worcester.

Rivera, a full-time court officer in Worcester, has had a special relationship for more than 30 years with the Worcester Boys & Girls Club and its director of boxing, Carlos Garcia, che è “The Godfather of Worcester Boxing.”

Rivera moved to Worcester from Springfield 30 years ago at the age of 16 to pursue a boxing career, which included being coached by Garcia. Rivera had siblings and other relatives living in Worcester and after living with an aunt for a month, Jose moved into an apartment with another boxer, four-time national amateur champion Bobby Harris.

“The Worcester Boys & Girls Club helped me stay off the streets so I could focus on my dream of becoming world champion,” Rivera remembered. “It was a place for me and so many others to go and be safe. Kids, not just boxers, can be kids there, where they don’t have to worry about what’s happening in the streets.

“Carlos has played a tremendous part of my life and so many others, influencing us not only to become good boxers, but to be good people in the community. That was always so important to him and he emphasized being a good person. Ho fatto del mio meglio. He was always fair across the board and gave us all opportunities. He took a liking to me and brags that he never had to throw me out of the Boys & girls Club. I graduated from high school and went after my dream in 1992 when I turned pro. Carlos is big in amateur boxing, but not so much with pros, because he doesn’t have the time to train pros. I made sure that when turned pro, tough, that he was part of my team. And he’s still a big part of my team and life.”

The number of Worcester youths Garcia has had a positive effect on, life-changing in many respects, is countless. One of those many people is Jose’s longtime friend and his current head trainer, Sean Fitzgerald, who retired as a boxer in 2001 con 29-2-2 pro record. “Fitzy” remembers the fir time he read the sign over the door in the gym at the Boys & girls Club: “Better to seat than bleed.”

Fitzy lived with his father when his parents divorced and at the age of 10, his father sent him to the Boys & Girls Club to attend an after-school program. “Fitzy” said he had to earn his way into Garcia’s good graces.

“Carlos didn’t talk to me for the first 5-6 settimane,” Fitzgerald explained. “Poi, he put me in the ring as a sparring partner, and I was badly beaten. I had a bloody nose and black eye, but the next day I came back, e il resto è storia. Carlos was a great mentor, rough at times, but always there for you. I remember seeing the boxing team jackets. It intrigued me. When I got my jacket and started wearing it, I got respect from everybody, and then I knew that I belonged. I learned a lot about life at the Boys & girls Club, being with there with people from different generations and cultures. I met many friends there who I never would have met.

“The Boys & Girls Club is safe. I was from a tough area in Worcester. My father worked and it was easy to get in trouble with no supervision. Carlos stayed on top of me to graduate from school and if I was home sick, he come buy with chicken soup to make sure I was alright. My father was in my life big-time, but I joke that I had two moms growing up, my father and Carlos. Going to the Boys & Girls Club was something to look forward to every day.

“Carlos always taught us to never make the mistakes he did in life. He wanted us to go to school, stay out of trouble, and be a good person. He’s helped so many people over the years. Look around Worcester and you’ll see them: police and court officers, fire fighters, e tanti altri. The Boys & Girls Club was a great experience for me and so many other kids from Worcester.”


(L-R) – Ray Semidei, Carlos Garcia and Jose Antonio Rivera

Garcia has been the director of boxing at the Worcester Boys & Girls Club since 1982. Two year ago, Garcia was inductred into the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame.

“Never in his life has Jose even raised his voice to me,” Garcia commented. “He treats me like his father and he’s like one of my sons. There aren’t not too many guys like him and he’s so well respected in the community. He came to Worcester from Springfield to train with ne and stayed with me. Jose helps everyone and now he’s promoting to help local boxers.

“We’re at the Boys & Girls Club to and that’s the way it really is here. It’s so good to see so many in this community who’ve gone through our boxing program and are good people, good husbands, good parents. It makes me feel so proud. ‘Fitzy’ was a hyper kid. He’s a real gentleman who now does so much for kids here. I’ve never had a signed contract with any of the pro boxers I’ve worked with because I trust them.”

Ecco ciò che i combattenti avevano da dire Giovedi:
JAMEL HERRING
“Camp era fantastico. I started in Cincinnati and finished in D.C. with Barry Hunter, Patrice Harris and of course Mike Stafford. During my time in D.C., I sparred with Lamont Peterson, who turned southpaw for me.
“I have a great deal of respect for Shafikov. Tough guy, experienced but he had his chance and it’s my time now. This is my toughest fight on paper but I feel good. It’s my time to earn my respect.
“It’s a huge honor and blessing to headline on ESPN on 4th of July weekend. I want to put on a good show,
“Its extra special to honor on this weekend, being that I was a marine and to headline and I want to put on a patriotic and great performance.
“I believe a win will open the doors for a world title. Nella mia mente, I am taking this fight as a world title fight. That is how important this fight is and before the end of the year, I hope to get a crack at a world title.”
DENIS SHAFIKOV
“Everything went well in camp. We had a four-month camp. We were supposed to fight a couple of months ago but when that fight was cancelled, Denis relaxed for a minute and then this opportunity came up.
“Herring has a great record and he represented the U.S. alle Olimpiadi. He is still young and I feel that my experience will be the determining factor.
“I accepted this fight because a win gets us in line for big opportunities, including another shot at a world championship.”
PATRYK SZYMANSKI
“I’m excited about the opportunity to take on an experienced opponent. I think it will be a good test for me and a chance to show off my skills.
“I’ve worked very hard so that I can leave an impression with my performance. These are the kind of fights that I have to win and win in style if I want to reach my goals in this sport.”
Wilky CAMPFORT
“Training camp went very well. I don’t know too much about my opponent but I did see him fight once in Tampa. Come Sabatonotte, I will see what he has.
“It means a lot to fight on ESPN. The first fight that I saw that involved a fellow Haitian was Daniel Edouard on ESPN and it gave me a lot of motivation to pursue my career.
“I am not only fighting for myself, but all of the people in Haiti and Florida that have been supporting me.
“A win will put me right back into where I was when I had my long winning streak. A win will put me back in the mix at 154-pounds.”
