I’m excited to be facing an undefeated boxer and I’m really pumped to be fighting in front of a large crowd of family and friends,” Mioletti said. “I want to put on a great show for them.
22-year-old Mioletti says he is motivated for the challenge. “I love the level of competition,” él dijo, “and I love fighting in my hometown.
“No se mucho de el. I’m just going in blind,” said 26-year-old Hernandez. “Así, I’ll just go in with confidence and if I train hard I always have a chance to win. I’m training hard seven days a week.
Hernandez is returning from a six-year layoff that saw him obtain an accounting degree and start a family. The layoff, él dice, no será un problema.
I’m ready and coming into this fight stronger than ever before. I’ve been dying to get back in the ring and it’s almost time.
The promising Schobitz, from Chicago via Austria, says training is going well and he’s confident there won’t be another upset by his opponent Cesar Ruiz. In January of this year, Ruiz scored a shock TKO 1 over well-regarded, and then undefeated, Martez McGregor at the UIC Pavilion.
“El entrenamiento va genial. I’m working out twice or three times a day and focusing a lot on using my legs and getting my legs strong. I sparred him (Ruiz) before and I saw his last fight. He’s a come-forward guy. He knocked out Martez with a long left hook, but he doesn’t have a lot of resources. And like they say, a good big man always beats a good little man.
Schobitz, who came to the US to train for the Austrian amateur championships, which he won, liked what he saw and returned as a professional, in search of glory.
I spent all my money I had saved up in Austria as a teen to move here to box. Obviamente, you come here with goals to be world champion and learn as much as you can and gain experience. I want to go as far as I can. Boxing is a sport I love. I love to fight more than anything else.
Windy City Fight Night doors open at 7:00 pm CT y la acción comienza a las 8:00 pm. The UIC Pavilion is located at 525 S. Racine Avenue in Chicago. The entire bout card is subject to change.

WARRIORS BOXING SIGNS CHICAGO BANTAMWEIGHT PROSPECT SHAWN SIMPSON TO PROMOTIONAL AGREEMENT

SIMPSON WILL MAKE PROMOTIONAL DEBUT Abril 28 VS. JOSE ELIZDO AT WINDY CITY FIGHT IN CHICAGO
Warriors Boxing proudly announces the signing of Chicago-based bantamweight prospect Shawn Simpson to a promotional agreement.
23-year-old Simpson (4-0, 2 KOs) will make his promotional debut under the Warriors banner at their next Windy City Fight Night, prevista para Viernes, Abril 28, 2017, en el UIC Pavilion en Chicago.
Simpson will face Mexico’s Jose Elizondo (2-2) in a six-round match-up.
Before turning professional in 2015, Simpson was a heavily decorated amateur boxer. Looking to try different after-school sports, he walked into a gym at age nine.
By age 13, I started getting good and by 15, I was winning national tournaments,” recounted Simpson. “yo era un 2012 Suplente olímpico. I won the National Golden Gloves, National PAL three times and I was 2009 National Junior Olympic Champion. I fought the top of the top guys like (former WBA World Champion) Rau’shee Warren and gave them all they could handle. I finished with a record of about 177-20.
Now an undefeated professional, Simpson trains with former world champion Montell Griffin at Body Shot Boxing Club.
“Él (Grifo) knows everything,” continued Simpson. “He’s been through everything I want to get to. Así, to learn from him helps me out tremendously and we get along very well. He’s going to help me become a world champion in multiple weight classes.
Simpson says the decision to sign with Warriors was an easy one for he and manager/father Tony Simpson.
I think they were the best option for me. They have a lot of shows and have some great fighters. They even have a world champion in my weight class. Esta es una gran oportunidad para mí. They do a lot in Chicago too. Leon and Dominic and their company are great people. I’m very comfortable with them and I get good vibes.
While he professes to not knowing much about upcoming opponent Elizondo, Simpson lists his ability to adjust to any style, in-ring, as one of his best fighting assets, along with his hand speed and counter-punching.
“No puedo esperar. I fought for them Enero 21 and I put on a great show. This one will be even better because I will have six rounds to work with. That will give me more time to show what I have in my arsenal.
Warriors Boxing President Leon Margules says he’s excited for the future of young Simpson.
Shawn can really fight. We watched about a minute of his fight at our show in January and you can just see he’s special,” said Margules. “And he’s very personable as well as gifted. He’s everything you want in a young fighter, to help them reach the top of their potential in the sport. I believe Warriors has signed a future world champion in Shawn, and I foresee big things happening for him.
Simpson says it won’t take long for him to join his former compatriots at the top of the bantamweight division.
A year from now, with my skill level, I should be ready for a big fight. I don’t think I’ll need the development time other fighters need. I fought all the top guys in the amateurs. I had a fight in the World Series of Boxing with a fighter as tough as anybody fighting for a world title right now. 2008 Bantamweight Olympic Bronze Medalist, Veaceslav Gojan from Moldova. Era 30 years old and we fought twice, and each won one. If he was a pro he’d be in the top of the division. If I can beat him, I can beat any of them.
Other Chicago-based fighters appearing that night will be undefeated super lightweight Ramiro “El Lobito” Carrillo (11-0, 7 KOs) en el evento principal de ocho asaltos, as well as separate six-rounders featuring undefeated super featherweight Josh Hernandez (5-0, 4 KOs); power-punching lightweight Jessica “CasKILLA” McCaskill (3-1, 2 KOs) and lightweight Jose Felix Quezada (11-1, 6 KOs).

Warriors Boxing firma su primera luchadora femenina, Jessica McCaskill, a un contrato promocional

En un movimiento histórico, Warriors Boxing anuncia con orgullo el fichaje de su primera luchadora femenina, Jessica “CasKILLA” McCaskill a un contrato promocional.
McCaskill (2-1, 2 KOs) es un peso ligero de gran potencia originario de St. Louis, ahora vive en Chicago y entrena con la conocida figura de boxeo de Windy City, Rick Ramos.
“Firmar este trato es muy emocionante,” dijo McCaskill. “Es el primer paso de muchos hacia un título mundial. Tengo muchas ganas de pelear internacionalmente y convertirme en una fuerte presencia femenina y ayudar a recuperar el boxeo femenino por completo.”
La mujer de 32 años dice que comenzó en el boxeo como una rudo toletero, confiando únicamente en su increíble fuerza natural. Pero casi tres años de trabajo con Ramos han traído un cambio significativo.
“Comencé como un luchador,” Ella explicó. “En St. Louis, Realmente se trataba de ser llamativo y estar en modo de ataque todo el tiempo.. Pero desde que me mudé a Chicago, Rick me ha enseñado a ser un boxeador con más habilidades.. Ahora peleo como más una combinación de los dos estilos. Siento a mis oponentes y luego si Rick me suelta, Volveré a ser el peleador y detendré el espectáculo. Enciendo y apago las cosas. Solo puedo escucharlo a él durante una pelea y lo que sea que me esté diciendo que haga, eso es lo que hago. Él tiene 100% de mi confianza.”
Ramos, quien dice que McCaskill es uno de los luchadores más poderosos y ferozmente competitivos con los que ha trabajado, tiene grandes esperanzas en McCaskill.
“Jessica es muy dominante en el ring. Ya ni siquiera puede entrenar con mujeres. No pueden tomar su poder. Ella practica con hombres. Cuando comencé a trabajar con ella, ella era un poco salvaje. La he frenado y la he organizado. Y ahora que firmó con Warriors, ella puede llegar tan lejos como quiera llegar. Los guerreros se arriesgaron con ella y eso dice mucho. Estoy emocionado de ver lo que pueden hacer. El cielo es ahora el límite.”
McCaskill dice que firmar con una empresa de promoción de renombre es un gran paso para su carrera. “Mi red crecerá y las puertas se abrirán y diferentes ojos verán lo que puedo hacer ahora.. Estaré buscando seis- y luego peleas de ocho asaltos en el siguiente poco. Y un desafío de campeonato mundial no se queda atrás. No estoy aquí para perder el tiempo.”
Dominic Pesoli, Vicepresidente de Warriors Boxing y figura del boxeo de Chicago desde hace mucho tiempo, dice que le gusta lo que ha visto de McCaskill, hasta ahora.
“Jessica tiene un estilo muy emocionante y sus fanáticos aparecen en grandes cantidades para ver,” dijo Pesoli. “Estamos muy felices de trabajar con ella como nuestra primera luchadora.. Los deportes de combate femeninos están ganando popularidad nuevamente y Jessica muestra una gran promesa de que tenemos la intención de ayudarla a desarrollarse.”
“Ella es una de las peleadoras más duras de todo el boxeo en este momento.,” dijo el director de operaciones de Warriors, Luis DeCubas. “Leon Margules y yo estamos felices de trabajar con Jessica. Una artista del nocaut femenino es una rareza en el boxeo y Jessica es realmente una de ellas.”

Warriors Boxing Signs Chicago’s Undefeated Josh Hernandez to Promotional Contract

Warriors Boxing proudly announce the signing of undefeated Chicago-based super featherweight prospect Josh Hernandez to a promotional contract.
A role model to the city’s youth, when not in training at Sam Colonna’s Gym on Chicago’s south side, the young Hernandez majors in Physical Education and Exercise Science as a junior at Chicago’s De Paul University while working as a personal trainer at Unanimous Boxing Gym.
“Estoy emocionado. Es una gran oportunidad para mí,” dijo Hernández. “All my pro fights so far have been with Warriors and I’m very comfortable working with Leon, Luis and Dominic and their team. That’s what matters most. Aparte de eso, they can offer me some great opportunities. My first three fights were on big PBC cards, so that was exciting. Even my fourth fight was exciting at the UIC Pavilion.
Como amateur, Hernández (4-0, 4 KOs as a pro) had just over 50 fights and in 2014, won the Power Gloves and Chicago Golden Gloves, where he was named Best Male Boxer of the tournament.
He is managed and trained by his father, former middleweight contender and fan favorite “Macho” Miguel Hernandez. The 20-year-old has inherited his father’s exciting style, having KO’d all his opposition, hasta ahora, in dramatic fashion.
My father took me to the gym at five years old and I had my first fight when I was seven. We are very close. He’s my best friend. He is my manager and trainer since I started boxing. I’ve learned everything from him. Cuando era más joven, he took me everywhere with him in his pro carer. When he sat down to talk business with Dominic, I was in the room. When he auditioned for ‘The Contender,’ I was there. At a young age, I was exposed to the business of boxing and what it takes to be a high-level fighter. I bring a lot of people out to watch me fight, but when I’m in the ring, all I hear is his voice. That’s how close we are. I can block everything out but him.
Long-time Chicago boxing staple and top promoter Dominic Pesoli, now Vice President of Warriors, says he’s happy to be working with the second generation of Hernandez.
Josh comes from a good, hard-working family,” dijo Pesoli. “Despite all his talent, he is an extremely humble young man focused on his goals. He has excellent power and great technical skills in the ring and he’s very smart. I couldn’t be happier to be part of this family affair in boxing. Looking forward to working with them.
Warriors President, Leon Margules, says Hernandez has shown a great deal of promise so far.
Luis DeCubas and I couldn’t ask for anything more from Josh so far,” él dijo. “He trains hard and stays dedicated. And in the ring, he’s been levelling his opponents. It’s always amazing to me to see such a nice young man turn so ferocious in the ring, but he does and the fans love it. Warriors is thrilled he is allowing us to handle his career.
The elder Hernandez says he’s also optimistic for his son’s ring future.
I fought for Dominic and we have a good relationship. He treated me fairly and he knows when it comes to my son that I’m going to be a little overprotective. Él, Luis and Leon are good guys. Warriors is a good company that can take my son to the next level. I’m very happy about this deal.
