MASHANTUCKET, CT (Julij 19, 2016) — Connecticut may not have equal status with New York City or Las Vegas in terms of being a fight capital, but the Nutmeg State has produced five Hall-of-Famers with Foxwoods Resort Casino, located in Mashantucket, CT, hosting many of the sport’s greatest fighters and fights over the past two decades.
The tradition continues on Četrtek, Julij 21, as rising middleweight contender Sergiy “The Technician” Derevyanchenko (8-0, 6 Kos) faces former world champion Am “King” Soliman (44-13, 18 Kos) v 10 krogu glavni dogodek Premier Boxing prvakov na ESPN & ESPN.

Connecticut’s all-time greatest boxer is the late Willie “Will ‘o the Wisp” Pep (229-11-1, 65 Kos), who was born in Middletown and lived in Rocky Hill. Pep, who fought professionally between 1940 in 1966, was a two-time world featherweight champion who had an epic rivalry with Sandy Sedlar.
Other Hall-of-Famers from Connecticut are world heavyweight champion (1926-28)Gene “The Fighting Marine” Tunney (65-1-1, 48 Kos), of Greenwich, who defeated the legendary Jack Dempsey dvakrat; Ukrainian-born world featherweight (1925) titlist Louis “Kid” Kaplan (108-22-12, 72 Kos), from Meriden; world light heavyweight champion (1933) “Slapsie” Maxie Rosenbloom (222-42-31, 2 NC, 19 Kos), of Leonard Bridge; world light heavyweight titleholder (1926-27) Jack “Bright Eyes” Delaney (73-11-2, 43 Kos), who was born in Canada but lived in Bridgeport.
Over the year, many other Connecticut fighters have made an impact on the sport including Hartford’s NBA featherweight champion Battling Battalino (57-26-3, 26 Kos), who was the first world champion to lose his title on the scale, Hartford’s two-time world welterweight titlist Marlon “Magic Man” Starling (45-6-12, 27 Kos), Norwalk’s WBA junior middleweight champion “Tremendous” Travis Simms (28-1, 21 Kos), New Haven’s three-time world light heavyweight champion “Bad” Chad Dawson (33-4, 18 Kos) and world welterweight contender Gaspar “El Indio” Ortega (131-29-6, 69 Kos), Stamford’s world No. 1-ranked welterweight Chico Vejar (92-20-4, 43 Kos), and Bloomfield’s 1996 Olympic Team USA captain Lawrence Clay-Bey (21-3-1, 16 Kos).
The No. 1 Foxwoods fight of all-time, held on April 16, 2011, was also promoted by DiBella Entertainment, and was selected as the 2011 Ring Magazine and BWAA Fight of the Year. Defending champion Drugi Berto (27-0) in challenger Victor Ortiz (28-2-2) battled for 12 krogi, each getting dropped twice, with Ortiz winning a hard-fought decision (114-111, 114-112, 115-110) for the WBC welterweight title.
A close second place is the 2003 BWAA Fight of the Year, in which future Hall-of-FamerJames Toney (65-4-2) won a 12-round decision over reigning IBF cruiserweight champion Vassiliy Jirov. The action started days earlier at the pre-fight press conference when a skirmish erupted as tables were overturned and glasses thrown. The animosity continued between the two fighters and their respective camps right up to the final bell. Previously undefeated, Jirov (31-0) started fast but faded, getting decked in the final round.

Two other N.E. fan favorites who fought regularly at Foxwoods were multiple-time world champion Vinny Paz (Pazienza during his boxing career), fighting out of Cranston, RI, and New Bedford’s all-action “Sucra” Ray Oliveira. Paz had a 13-3 record at Foxwoods, highlighted by his 1998 decision over Glenwood Brown and his 50thcareer win in his retirement fight against Tocker Pudwill v 2004. Oliveira was only 6-7-1 fighting at Foxwoods, but he faced nothing but iron and he did defeat a world champion, Vince Phillips, v svojih 2000 non-title fight that produced the second-most total punches (2,989) recorded at that time.
Brazilian boxing fans always turned out in force when countryman Acelino “Butt” Freitas fought at Foxwoods, primarily because of the large Brazilian community in Connecticut. Freitas fought there four times, all in lightweight world title fights, zmagiZahir Raheem in Artur Grigorian in izgublja na Juan Diaz in Diego Corrales.
Other great fights at Foxwoods include future world middleweight champion Andy Leecoming back from the brink of possibly getting knocked out to stop Craig McEwan v 10th krog njihovih 2011 Boj, Carl Froch‘s dramatic late surge in 2009 to knock outJermain Taylor (who was well ahead on the scorecards) v 12th round for the WBC super middleweight championship, Pernell Whitaker taking a close decision fromAndrey Pestryaev (115-113, 115-112, in 114-113) v svojih 1997 WBA eliminator (later ruled a No Decision due to Whitaker’s failed drug test), in Ike Quarteyovercoming two knockdowns to successfully defend his WBA welterweight title versusJose Luis Lopez v 1997 (Quartey was originally awarded a win by majority decision, but a scoring error was discovered and the fight was ruled a majority draw).

V njegov 15th pro fight, Mayweather registered a third-round technical knockout of Miguel Melo, while Jones successfully defended his WBC/WBA light heavyweight titles with a 10th-krog TKO od Otis Grant.

MASHANTUCKET, Conn. (April. 17, 2016) – WBC Featherweight World Champion Gary Russell Jr. retained his title with a remarkable TKO of Irishman Patrick Hyland Sobotaon SHOWTIME from Fox Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Conn. V sodelovanju funkcijo, Jose Pedraza defended his IBF Junior Lightweight title with a unanimous decision over Stephen Smith.

 

Nocoj je event was a family affair with Russell Jr. working his brother Antonio’s corner during Nocoj je undercard and boxing’s Smith brothers, including current WBO Super Welterweight World Champion Liam Smith, cheering from the crowd.

 

A relentless Russell brought the main event to a quick halt by registering three knockdowns in the second round, the last of which forced referee Danny Schiavone to end the contest at 1:33. Od prvega zvona, Washington, Enosmerno. native came out swinging with his trademark hand speed and dangerous power. Russell, a southpaw, successfully broke down—and knocked out—Hyland with multiple vicious right hooks.

 

“We stuck to the game plan. We stayed sharp,” said Russell Jr., ki izboljšuje svoj rekord do 27 zmaga, one loss, 15 Knockouts.

 

“I’m ready to fight anyone in the division – Santa Cruz, Lee Selby. We are ready. But what I really want is [Vasyl] Lomachenko. I don’t care if he moves up to 147 funtov. I will go anywhere to get that fight,” Russell said.

 

“There aren’t many fighters who you instantly know are special,” said SHOWTIME Sports expert analyst Steve Farhood. “The combination of Gary Russell’s hand speed and accuracy instantly shows us that he’s special. That was plainly evident Nocoj and at times his hand speed was frightening.”

 

Pedraza (22-0, 12 Kos) remained disciplined and came out victorious during his second IBF 130-pound world title defense. A combination of timing, hand speed and good defense allowed the Puerto Rican native to dominate the 12-round championship fight.

 

“This definitely was a tough fight but the training really came to advantage in this fight,” Pedraza told SHOWTIME Sports reporter Jim Gray. “I knew he was a tough fighter so I was always aware.”

 

“I had better focus Nocoj. I had a better training camp,” said Pedraza, referring to his controversial split decision win over Edner Cherry two fights ago. “I knew that Stephen Smith was a great fighter and even after the knockdown, we were very cautious not to rush in.”

 

“Pedraza won Nocoj with different weapons. Mostly right hands to the head,"Je dejal Farhood. “I had the fight even after eight rounds and once Pedraza dropped Smith in the ninth, he gained momentum that he never lost and he pulled away. It was an impressive performance but also an important one because it erased a lot of the negative criticism Pedraza received in his controversial win over Edner Cherry.”

 

Pedraza was the more accurate fighter, pristanek 50 percent of his power punches over the 12-round bout. The Sniper was able to pick his spots and pocket rounds once he figured out the distance. Smith had his moments, but wasn’t active enough.

Vem, da kadarkoli imaš borca, ki trenira šest do osem tednov in se pripravlja na nikogar drugega kot na tebe, je nevaren boj. On je visok, on je dolg, lahko pa ga vzamemo. Obvladali bomo.”
(Ob vrnitvi po poškodbi…)
“Počutim se dobro. Jaz sem pripravljen; Delo sem dal v telovadnico. Kot sem rekel prej, Večkrat so me preklinjali in včasih sem zapustil telovadnico z občutkom, da sem najslabši borec vseh časov. Vendar, zdaj, pripravljeni smo in pripravljeni smo vlagati v moje sposobnosti.”
(O tem, kaj pomeni imeti svojega brata Antonia na kartici, ki jo vodi…)
“To pomeni veliko. veselim se tega. Pravzaprav se bolj veselim gledanja svojega brata na tekmovanju kot svojega boja. V tej borbi bom zagotovo delal njegov kot. Veliko nam pomeni, da lahko te informacije prenašamo iz generacije v generacijo in gledamo, kako rastejo, in gledamo, kako gradimo kot družina in kot enota. Neverjetno je.’
“Vsekakor ima potencial biti najboljši. Tako on kot Antuanne, ki je zdaj na 2016 olimpijska ekipa. To so vse informacije, ki se prenašajo iz roda v rod. Počutim se, kot da so zagotovo sposobni biti boljši od mene. Želel bi, da so vseeno.”
(O tem, kaj potrebuje za zmago v boju…)
“Moram ohraniti nadzor nad borbo, zmanjšajte razdaljo in ohranite udarec. Popolna dominacija; Želim se dotakniti telesa zgodaj. Zelo rad se giblje, zato bomo vse to zmanjšali.”
(O morebitnih bodočih nasprotnikih…)
“Božja volja, vse gre prav pride April 16, radi bi se poenotili z Leejem Selbyjem. Če bi imel svojo izbiro, Najprej bi šel z Leejem Selbyjem za poenotenje. Takoj za tem, Hočem Lea Santa Cruza in potem potrebujem Lomachenka.
“Ne zanima me kje [Lomachenko] premika. Naslednjega lahko izgubi 10 pretepi, toda preden je moja kariera končana, me mora videti.”
PATRICK HYLAND
(O tem, kaj mu daje občutek zadovoljstva v boksu…)
“Boriti se za naslov WBC je vse, o čemer sem sanjal, odkar sem bil otrok, in vse trdo delo, ki sem ga vložil, da sem prišel do tega položaja, da bi se boril zanj.. Srečna sem in zdaj samo za to živim Sobota noč.”
(Kot prvi irski boksar po Barryju McGuiganu, ki je osvojil naslov svetovnega prvaka v perolahki kategoriji…)
“To je vihra in je super. Sem samo lokalni fant iz Johnstowna v Dublinu in se borim na velikem odru in se borim za velik svetovni naslov, in spet bi bil imenovan za drugega perolahkega, ki bi kdaj osvojil naslov svetovnega prvaka, bi bilo prav neverjetno; resnične sanje zase.”
(O Garyju Russlu…)
“Vem, da ima hitre roke. Je odličen levičar in odličen boksar, zato moram biti po svojih najboljših močeh v soboto noč za to. V telovadnici sem delal na načrtu igre, da bi preprečil njegovo hitrost rok in vse se mora združiti na noč borbe. Lahko naredim vse to in povem vse to, ampak moram samo nastopiti v soboto noč in to vložil tako, da sem naredil vse, na kar sem delal, da bi postal prvak.”
Jose Pedraza
(Na trening kampu…)
“Počutim se res dobro, smo v zadnjem delu kondicioniranja. Bil je zelo dolg in intenziven trening, vendar smo opazili izboljšave v mojih sposobnostih. Dolgo sem čakal, da pride ta dan in Smithu bomo pokazali, da sem orožje.
(O Stephenu Smithu…)
“Smith je zelo dober boksar, ima veliko sposobnosti in inteligence. Je boksar z zelo dobro obrambo, vendar že uporabljamo različne strategije, da lahko nevtraliziramo vse njegove sposobnosti.”
(O tem, kaj namerava pokazati v soboto…)
“S svojimi sposobnostmi, kot Sobota, Dokazal bom, da sem nad Smithom in da sem na ravni tega, kar sem, prvak. Skupni, Želim samo pripraviti predstavo in upam, da bodo oboževalci uživali v tej odlični kartici.”
(O tem, kaj se je naučil iz boja z Ednerjem Cherryjem…)
“Naučil sem se, kar sem vedno govoril in kaj sem vedno počel do danes, ki nikoli ne gleda. Nikoli ne gledam preveč videoposnetkov svojega nasprotnika, ker bi bil na dan boja lahko popolnoma drugačen borec in mislim, da se je to zgodilo takrat. Poleg tega, uporabil je odlično strategijo.”
(O njegovih mislih o drugih portoriških boksarjih…)
“Pravzaprav sem svetovni prvak tako kot Rocky Martinez; obstaja veliko portorikanskih možnosti. Všeč mi je [Felix] Verdejo, vendar ga še ne štejem za kandidata za naslov svetovnega prvaka. Z boksarjem prvenstvenega kalibra se še ni boril, je pa trenutno med najboljšimi borci v Portoriku.”
(Na drugih borbah, ki bi ga morda zanimale 130 funtov…)
“Vedno sem govoril, da se manj borim proti Portoričanom, boljše. Če je zadnja možnost, Boril se bom tudi s Portoričani, vendar razen tega Rockyja [Martinez] svetovni prvak, tu je Francisco Vargas, [Javier] Fortune, da naštejem nekaj, ki so na vrhu mojega seznama.”
STEPHEN SMITH
(Ko se je prvič boril v ZDA….)
“Jaz sem navdušena. Če želite narediti ime v boksu, potem boš to storil v zveznih državah in to nameravam narediti tako, da bom v soboto postal svetovni prvak.”
(O tem, kaj ve o Pedrazi…)
“Dobro, ne prav veliko. Njegovo ime poznam iz amaterskih dni. Je dobro uveljavljen, on je olimpijec in je nadarjen človek. Boj proti nekomu pomeni zmagati ali ne, presega taktiko, onkraj sloga in res nabor spretnosti. Verjamem, da imam vse, kar je potrebno, da se borim s komer koli in nič mi ne bo preprečilo, da bi postal svetovni prvak.”
(O tem, kaj mora storiti, da pride do zmage…)
“Lahko je drugačen boj; vemo, da ga rad zamenja in boksa iz različnih stališč. Očitno je nadarjen, tako da bo za vsako smer drugačen niz, a vemo, kaj lahko pričakujemo. Vse sem opravil s svojim trenerjem Joejem Gallagherjem in pripravljeni smo.”
(O tem, da sta njegova brata Liam in Callum prvaka in kaj bi lahko pomenilo, da bi se jim pridružil…)
“je posebno. Pred dvema tednoma sta Liam in Callum osvojila naslov evropskega prvaka in to mi samo daje samozavest, duha za pohod. Psihično sem v res dobrem položaju in ne bi se mogel počutiti bolje, ko grem v to. Po tem, ko je moj tabor uspešno potekal, le bolje se počutiš, ko postaneš svetovni prvak.”
(O britanskih prvakih v porastu v zadnjem letu…)
“Tam je veliko zgodovine in zame in za mojo družino, zato delamo tisto, kar smo si vedno želeli, in želimo iti naprej.”
TRENER JOE GALLAGHER
(Na trening kampu…)
“Dobro je bilo. Očitno je zavrelo do Callumove zmage. Obstaja dober zagon. Callum in nato Stephen imata priložnost za naslov svetovnega prvaka. S Stephenom je bil počasen vzpon, vendar ga je, kot jaz temu rečem "njegov finale svetovnega prvenstva".’ — nekaj, kar bo vzelo srce in moč. Njegova moč gre zelo dobro. Pedraza je zelo dober borec, dober pravoslavec, dobra južnica, lahko ga pomeša in pripravljeni smo na kateri koli slog, ki ga želi prinesti v soboto.”
(O procesu priprav na borca, kot je Pedraza…)
“To je nočna mora. Dovolj težko je, ko se boriš s kakovostnim pravoslavcem ali kakovostnim južnikom, katerega je, ampak ne samo to. Lahko boksa tudi na zadnji in na sprednji nogi, tako da smo različni sparing partnerji, med krogi mešamo sparinge, menjavanje stališč, in kakorkoli se želi Pedraza boriti ob koncu noči, Prepričan sem, da bomo imeli odgovor.”
(Glede na to, kako se bo boj odvijal po njegovem mnenju…)
“Mislim, da je to vse odvisno od Pedraze, se ozrem na nekaj njegovih bojev, boksa počasi in dobro začne, potem pa se zdi, da v rundah malo izgubi pot. Ko ga gledaš proti [Andrey] Klimov, začel je zelo dobro, ga zelo hitro spravil v manire in ga skoraj premagal v četrtem krogu, vendar [Andrey] uspel se zelo dobro obstati in zelo dobro boksati. Prišel je v srednje kroge, malo izgubil pot, zamenjal južnjak, tako da bo tako ali tako fascinantno. Poskrbeti moramo le, da nas ne ujamejo zgodaj, ko je hiter in oster ter poskuša v Stephena Smitha vnesti manire in ga nato odpeljati v globoke vode, kot je Edner Cherry.”
(Njegova napoved…)
“Stephen Smith. Po možnosti z nokautom. Ne, vsekakor z nokavtom.”
