FRAMINGHAM, מאַסע. (סעפּטעמבער 14, 2021) — Nineteen months after it was originally scheduled, “Fight Night in Framingham” finally will be presented October 16 by Shearns Boxing Promotions for the benefit of “Fighting Life” at Sheraton Hotel in Framingham, מאַססאַטשוסעטץ.

Canceled due to COVID-19 restrictions, “Fight Night in Framingham” will mark the first professional boxing event ever held in Framingham, a city incorporated in 1700, located in the MetroWest subregion of Greater Boston, ווייניקער ווי 40 miles from Boston.

“Fighting Life” is an after-school youth boxing program and academic empowerment program, available 100-percentfree of charge to students beginning in elementary school through high school education.

High Octane Classics is the presenting sponsor. Other sponsors include Platts Landscaping and Shamrock Sports.

“We had to cancel this show last year just a week before the event,” promoter Chuck Shearns explained. “A lot of people had put in a lot of work for the event, so it was disappointing for many, especially fighters. When events were allowed again in Massachusetts, we wanted to finish what we started in Framingham. Although still in uncertain times, we waited just a bit hoping that it would lessen the possibility of another cancellation. We are feeling confident that this will be the great event that we started last year.”

Shearns is excited about promoting the first boxing event in Framingham history, as well as working in association with Fighting Life.

“Shearns Boxing Promotions (SBP) is very excited, and we look forward to putting on Framingham’s first-ever boxing event for a great charity, Fighting Life,” Shearns added. “I think what speaks loudest is the amount of community and business support Fighting Life has received. I think it says a lot about what (Fighting Life founder/head coach) and the board are trying to accomplish with this organization. This kind of support will go a long way.”

Located in UpperKuts Boxing Club in nearby Ashland, מאַ, the Fighting Life Boxing Program was founded as a resource and program to provide children with a positive outlet in life. באַזוכן www.fightlif.org to learn more about this organization.

The purpose of Fighting Life is to provide a safe space to promote structure, growth mindset, self-worth, and goal setting through physical and academic fulfillment and self-discipline.

“It is an outlet for kids,” Thomas said. “Kids who have been picked on. Bullied, or at risk find it’s a safe haven. We take kids from all walks of life. We don’t turn anybody away. If their parents can’t afford the membership fee to join the gym, we provide a voucher to apply to waive the fee. Not all of these kids come here to become boxers. We have fitness classes in addition to teaching boxing lessons.

“This show is important because the attention and money we receive will help us get more volunteers, equipment, and go places to box that we’ve never been. Any money we receive will go straight to the kids. Our dream is to promote our own shows someday and get our charity’s name out there for the benefit of our programs. Boxing is growing here in Framingham, and we believe that here will be more boxing in our city. I even check on the kids in school and if they need help, they’ll have a big brother right next to them. Everything is for the kids!"

Undefeated Florida-based junior middleweight Josniel “TG” Castro (5-0, 3 קאָס) will headline “Fight Night in Framingham” in a 6-round bout versus 57-fight veteran Rynell Griffin, פון לאַס וועגאַס. Castro has been active, something few boxers have been able to do during the pandemic, as this will be his fourth fight of 2021.

The co-featured event features a “graduate” of Fighting Life, Marlboro, MA super lightweight Nelson “Chino” Perez (3-0, 2 קאָס), who will fight Ryan Venable (2-6) in a 6-round bout. Puerto Rico-native Perez is a past New England Golden Gloves champion.

Perez hasn’t forgotten where he comes from. He trains at UpperKuts and often teaches youngsters there how to train to become boxers. “I try to teach the kids to stay out of trouble,” Perez remarked. “I coach them a little to help them live and prosper. It’s great seeing these kids in the gym. I’m very excited to be part of this event to benefit Fighting Life.”

Hometown favorite Kevin Lewis will make his professional debut in a 4-rounder against a fellow Framingham resident, super middleweight Saul “The Spider” Almeida (0-14-4), one of the top MMA fighters in New England.

Fighting Life charity event,

 מאַרץ 20טה at Sheraton Hotel

FRAMINGHAM, מאַסע. (מאַרץ 4, 2020) – The long-awaited professional debut of decorated amateurAngel Gonzalez, דזשוניער. will take place Friday night, מאַרץ 20, on the “Fight Night In Framingham” card, presented by Shearns Boxing Promotions (SBP), at Sheraton Framingham Hotel in Framingham, מאַססאַטשוסעטץ.

“Fight Night In Framingham”, the first pro boxing event ever in Framingham, is being held for the benefit ofFighting Life, an after-school youth boxing and academic empowerment program, available 100-percent free of charge, to students beginning in elementary school through high school education.

Gonzalez hasn’t fought in three years, since he moved from his native Hartford, CT to Florida. “It took me a while to settle in after I moved to Florida,” Gonzalez explained. “I’ve been going to a gym and now I’m on track and coming back to turn pro. I have the talent for bigger and better things.”

The 26-year-olldf super flyweight had a 45-6 ליבהאָבער רעקאָרד, highlighted by three New England Golden Gloves, two Ringside National and 2014 National PAL championships.

The problem for Gonzalez, כאָטש, is finding appropriate opponents, especially where he was a standout amateur. Right now, he’s still without a signed opponent, largely because there are so few 115-pound boxers in America outside of California and the Southwest. “Most super flyweights are from Mexico, דזשאַפּאַן, or other foreign countries,” Gonzalez said. “It doesn’t matter to me who I fight. I can slug or box, depending on my opponent. If he’s taller, I’ll fight on the inside; if shorter, I’ll box from the outside. I’ll adjust to my opponent. My best punch is my right. It’s solid and deadly.”

“I’ve offered this fight to guys with 5 צו 10 fights and after consideration,” promoterChuck Shearns explained, “they have declined to fight Angel. These lower weight classes can be hard enough to match, never mind against Angel. What you find is that these smaller guys need to step up their competition earlier than other weight classes, because it’s simply a smaller pool of fighters. We will see what Angel has very early in his career.”

Worcester, מאַסע. (פעברואַר 21, 2019) – Worcester boxer Kendrick “Peppa” פּילקע, דזשוניער. is living the dream and closing in on some of his goals in the ring.

פּילקע (11-1-2, 8 קאָס), fighting out of his native Worcester, מאַ, will headline his first show and fight for his first title belt, when he headlines “Every Man For Himself”, the inaugural event presented by Shearns Boxing Promotions (SBP), on Friday night, מאַרץ 15, ביי די פּאַללאַדיום אין Worcester. This will be the first time Ball headlines a show, in addition to fighting for his first title, in the six-round main event for the vacant New England middleweight title,

The 26-year-old Ball, promoted by CES Boxing, פּנימער יבערקערן-מיינדאַד דאַני “Feel Good Hollywood” Rosenberger (4-6-4, 1 קאָ), פון יאָונגסטאָוון, אָהיאָ.

“This fight is so important for me because I’ve always wanted to headline in my hometown and fight for a title,” the 6′ 3″ Ball said. “Another goal of mine, before I started boxing, was to fight on a card with my cousin, אָווען מיינער, who will be making his pro debut. He’s a big puncher and people can expect a big KO from him.

“I’m an exciting fighter who likes to get knockouts. Expect something big to happen March 15טה. I’m working on boxing more, using my jab a lot, to improve. I don’t know a lot about my opponent, but I understand he likes to move a lot.”

“Shearns Boxing is happy to have Kendrick Ball, דזשוניער. headline our Mar. 15טה קאָרט,” SBP promoter Chuck Shearns קאַמענטאַד. “He’s a good kid whose family is rooted in Worcester boxing. There definitely is a rise in the number of quality fighters coming out of Worcester. This will probably be our last chance to watch Kendrick Jr. fighting in Worcester before his promoter, CES Boxing, has him fighting on the national scene.”

פּילקע, who started boxing at 13, experienced an unusual start to his boxing career, losing his first nine amateur bouts, before becoming a decorated boxer who turned pro in 2016.

“I wasn’t really ready, my head wasn’t into boxing when I started,” Ball explained. “I didn’t want to quit, and that experience taught me to never to give up. I knew that I was good – I had success sparring with pros – but it wasn’t there when I fought. I kept punching and grew into my own.”

Ball captured gold medals at three Western Golden Gloves Championships, plus top honors at the Rocky Marciano Tournament, also becoming a prestigious USA New England champion.

טריינד דורך זיין טאַטע, Ken Ball, סיסטער., who owns and operates Camp Get Right gym in Worcester, Ball Sr. & דזשוניער. have succeeded when many father-son relationships in boxing have often failed.


“We have a tight bond and we’ve been doing this since he was little,” Ball Sr. reported. “It’s worked out well. I try to separate father-son and make it trainer-boxer, but that’s hard at times.”

His son added, “It’s all good. Sometimes it’s difficult and becomes a little hard, but only because he’s pushing me. He’s my trainer, mostly, during fights.”

Father and son agree that there is a boxing resurgence in Worcester, which has a rich history dating back a century, but it also went through a slow period. Ball is part of a gifted quartet that’s making noise today in boxing, joining Khiary Gray, Jermaine Ortiz און Irvin Gonzalez.

“Over the last three years,” Ball St. remarked, “boxing has been hot again in Worcester. There are a lot of talented, young boxers in Worcester. Once Khiary turned pro, that triggered a lot of boxers turning pro.”

“We’re all close,” Ball Jr. קאָנקלודעד. “We’ve trained together and support each other.”

Worcester boxing is on the rise and more talent is turning pro, starting Mar. 15טה when Ball’s cousin, Minor, makes his long-awaited pro debut in a four-rounder versus קאָרי מאָרלי (0-2-1), פון פילאדעלפיע.

Undefeated Providence light heavyweight Angel Camacho, דזשוניער. (15-0, 5 קאָס) returns to the ring after a three-year absence in a six-round bout, co-featured event against Dallas challenger Taronze Washington (17-26, 9 קאָס).

Undefeated Southbridge, MA welterweight ווילפרעדאָ “די סוקאַראָ” פּייגאַן (5-0, 3 קאָס) takes on upset-minded Peruvian Carlos Galindo (1-7), fighting out of Woburn, מאַ, in a four-round clash.

Also fighting on the undercard, all in four-round fights, are Springfield, MA lightweightCalixto Cruz (1-0) ווס. טבאַ, Worcester cruiserweight Jake Paradise (0-2) ווס. Francisco Artri Neto (0-2), פון Woburn, מאַ, New Britain, CT Nathan Martinez (2-0) ווס. טבאַ, and Bridgeport, CT junior lightweight Carlos Marrero III (0-2-1) ווס.

THE CHAMP IS BACK: referee Bob Benoit (ל) and Jose Antonio Rivera

Worcester, מאַסע. (ויגוסט 19, 2018) – Seven years after his last fight, “די גאַללאָ” דזשאָסע אַנטאָניאָ ריוועראַ returned to the ring in grand fashion last night (שבת) צו קאָפּ “האָמעקאָמינג, presented by Granite Chin Promotions in association with Rivera Promotions Entertainment, ביי די פּאַללאַדיום אין Worcester, מאַססאַטשוסעטץ.

 

 

 

The 45-year-old Rivera (42-6-1, 25 קאָס), 35 pounds lighter than he was in February when he started training, packed the house in his hometown, fully entertained his supportive fans. דריי-צייַט, two-division world champion Rivera pressured Larry “Slomoshun: סמיט (10-38-1, 7 קאָס) from the opening bell and he never let up.

 

 

 

It took a few rounds for Rivera to wear off the rust, but he fed Smith a steady diet of body shots, gradually breaking down his opponent, as he won round after round on points. Twice in the sixth round it looked like Smith was done, but the tough Texan showed a lot of heart to survive.

 

 

 

לעסאָף, Rivera closed the show in the seventh round, when Smith broke his hand in the fifth round and was unable to continue, kneeling in his corner, obviously in pain.

 

 

 

“I’ve always been tough,” Rivera said after the fight, “but I was a little rusty. He tested me early but, once he saw I wasn’t going anywhere and knew he was in for a fight. I started warming up in the fourth round. I was always a 12-round fighter. I didn’t know he broke his hand until after the fight. איך פילן גרויס. We gave a good fight to the fans who have always supported me.”

 

 

 

“I give myself a C+ tonight. I’m going to talk with my family, but I’m thinking about one more fight, to make it 50 for his pro career).”

 

 

 

דזשאָסע אַנטאָניאָ ריוועראַ (ר) had a successful comeback fight

 

 

 

אין די גלויבנס-ארויסגעשטעלטע געשעעניש, Worcester super middleweight Kendrick Ball, דזשוניער. (10-1-2, 7 קאָס) demolished פאַביאַן “El Lobo” Valdez (2-4), flooring him with a right uppercut and soon after finished him with a vicious body shot for a technical-knockout victory in the opening round. The popular Ball was fighting at home for the first time as a professional

 

 

 

The rematch between Worcester junior middleweight Khiary Gray (16-4, 12 קאָס) און Antonio Chaves Fernandez (9-34, 4 קאָס) ended in the same fashion as their first encounter did three years ago. Also fighting at home for the first time, Gray blasted out his game opponent, cracking him with a picture-perfect, left-fight combination that put Fernandez on his back. Fernandez beat the count, but referee Bob Benoit halted the action.

 

 

Southbridge, MA junior middleweight ווילפרעדאָ “די סוקאַראָ” פּייגאַן (5-0, 3 קאָס) געבליבן ונדעפעאַטעד, using a relentless body attack to drop Engelberto “Guarura” וואַלענזועלאַ (11-15, 3 קאָס) דרייַ מאָל, the last ending the fight midway through the third round.

 

 

 

Springfield, MA junior lightweight Joshua Orta (1-0, 1 קאָ) turned in an impressive pro debut in a barn-burner that ended when (1-8-1, 1 קאָ), of Worcester, was unable to continue fighting after the third round.

 

 

 

Worcester welterweight Eslih Owuso (1-0) pitched a shutout in his pro debut, decking veteran ברייאַן “The Brick” אברהם (6-31-2, 6 קאָס) צוויי מאָל אין די רגע קייַלעכיק, ען מאַרשרוט צו אַ יונאַנאַמאַס באַשלוס געווינען.

 

 

 

In the opening bout of the night, 45-יאָר-אַלט Jose Angel “קאָ” אָרטיז (5-14-1, 2 קאָס) דראַפּט Patrick Leal (0-5) 10-seconds into the fight, once more later in the opening round, and stopped him in the second. Oritz, fighting out of Springfield, MA by way of Puerto Rico, was fighting for the first time in five years, and he registered his first victory in seven.

“די גאַללאָ” Jose Antonio Rivera hitting the pads with his trainer Sean Fitzgerald

 

Worcester, מאַסע. (יולי 31, 2018) – A dozen years after he captured his third world title in two different weight classes, seven since his last fight, “די גאַללאָ” Jose Rivera returns to the ring August 17 צו קאָפּ “האָמעקאָמינג”, presented by Granite Chin Promotions (גקפּ) in association with Rivera Promotions Entertainment (רפּע), ביי די פּאַללאַדיום אין Worcester, מאַססאַטשוסעטץ.

 

 

 

The 45-year-old ריוועראַ (41-6-1, 24 קאָס) has already lost more than 30 פונט, now within four pounds of his contracted weight, since he started training earlier this year. He will headline against Ruben “Modern Day Warrior” Galvan (27-26-4, 10 קאָס) in the eight-round main event.

 

 

 

אין 1997, Rivera captured the International Boxing Organization (יבאָ) World welterweight title, סטאָפּפּינג Gilberto Flores אין די רגע קייַלעכיק. Six years later, he traveled to Germany to take on undefeated, כאָומטאַון באַליבט Michel Trabant (38-0) for the vacant World Boxing Association (וובאַ) World Welterweight Championship, in which Rivera won a 12-round decision and the belt.

 

 

 

In front of nearly 10,000 hometown fans in Worcester, Rivera capped his boxing career by winning a 12-round unanimous decision in 2006 over defending champion Alejandro גאַרסיאַ(25-1) for the WBA World super welterweight title.

 

 

 

“The idea to return to the ring started with my son. אַ.דזש., and I talking about chasing history,” ריוועראַ דערקלערט. “We are not able to put that together right now (אַ.דזש. was born with Spina Bifida and he was unable to secure medical clearance in time for the Aug. 17טה show.), but because of my hard work these last six months, I felt that it was only fitting to continue with my fight.

 

 

 

“Granite Chin Promotions has been very instrumental to make sure that this show is put together in the most professional manner possible. I won’t think our promotional company (Jos and A.J. own and operate RPE Promotions Entertainment) would have been able to pull this off. All the negotiations had to be done and me training the only way I know how, at a championship level, would have been too much for us to handle.”

 

 

 

Granite Chin Promotions’ co-promoter Chuck Shearns מוסיף, “When Jose and I started talking about his ring return, I was the last person to think he was crazy. We were friends during his championship days and I know how incredibly committed and disciplined Jose is. איך געהאַלטן ביי 49 יאר אַלט, not to compare myself to the level Jose has been on, but I know that it can be done. What everyone should know is how well Jose has taken care of himself during his thirties and into his forties. Did I ever think that קריס (Traietti, GCP co-promoter) and I would be co-promoting Jose’s comeback? צי ניט, but I’m happy to be involved and I will support him as far as he wants to take this. He’s been training like he’s 25 and Jose’s going to surprise some people.”

 

 

 

During Rivera’s title reigns, unlike other world champions, he also held a full-time job as a court officer in the Massachusetts Trial Court, a position in Worcester that he still holds 17 years later. Between working and training, never mind his family responsibilities, Jose somehow manages to balance everything in his extremely busy life.

 

 

 

“Let’s just say it makes for a busy schedule,” Rivera remarked. “I am committed to taking care of my family and will do whatever it takes. I usually run before work and train after work. Starting early and finishing late makes for busy days, but the job needs to get done. רעכט איצט, I’m in the middle of the hardest period of training. The week of the fight is more about preparing mentally and making weight. There’s nothing you can do the week of the fight to help you get into better shape.”

 

 

 

Rivera isn’t under any illusions that his comeback will lead to another major world title. The plan is for him to have two more fights to reach a total of 50 as a pro, but he’s taking things one fight at a time, and he still hopes his next fight, tentatively slated for later this year, will be on the same card as his son’s pro debut.

 

 

 

Rivera last fought in 2011, taking an eight-round decision over Paul Mpendo, at Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut. The battle-tested Galvan, his Aug. 17טה opponent from Indiana, has fought other world champions, Including זאַב יהודה, דזשוליאָ Cesar טשאַוועז, דזשוניער., Jorge Paez און Paul ספּאַדאַפאָראַ.

 

 

 

“I hear he comes to fight and that he likes to fool around a bit to try and get into his opponent’s head,” Rivera added. I’ve concentrated on me, my timing and focus on the game plan

 

 

 

“Training for this fight has been more mental than anything else. I have been able to reach peak performance at 45 training like I did in my prime. The most important thing is that, working with my trainer Sean Fitzgerald, I’ve been focused on making sure my timing gets better since it’s been seven years since I last fought.

 

 

 

“און, אַוואַדע, it’s always a great feeling to box in front of my hometown fans. Their support is always appreciated.”

 

 

 

The name of the event is “האָמעקאָמינג” because six fighters in action are from Worcester, including three who’ve never fought there before as professionals.

 

 

 

מידדלעוועיגהט Kendrick Ball, דזשוניער. (9-1-2, 6 קאָס) and junior middleweight Khiary Gray (15-4, 11 קאָס), both promoted by CES Boxing, will be fighting at home in Worcester as pros for the first time in a pair of six-round bouts. Ball meets דעמעטריוס וואָקער (8-21-2, 4 קאָס) in the co-featured event, while Gray (15-4, 11 קאָס) פנימער Antonio Chaves Fernandez (9-33, 4 קאָס), of Brockton, מאַ, in a rematch of a fight won by Gray.

 

 

 

Also scheduled to fight on the undercard in four-round bouts are Springfield, MA welterweight Jose Angel “קאָ” אָרטיז (4-13-1, 1 קאָ) ווס. סעט באַסלער (0-8) and pro-debuting featherweight Joshua Orta ווס.
