Former world champion Imamu Mayfield interested in tonight’s Jones – Gunn clash
Freehold , ניו ג'רזי (פבואר. 17, 2017) – Former IBF World Cruiserwight word champion Imamu Mayfield has thrown his hat in the ring to face the winner of tonight’s Roy Jones, ג 'וניור. – Bobby Gunn WBF World Cruiserweight title bout that will shown LIVE on Pay-Per-View.
Mayfield of Freehold , New Jersey ended a eight-year hiatus in losing to then-undefeated heavyweight Dan Pasciolla, but came back to Knockout a game Anthony Caputo Smith in six-rounds on November 12th באטלנטיק סיטי.
Mayfield’s longtime friend/manager Vinny LaManna is adamant that that Mayfield will have the right style to beat Jones or Gunn.
“This is a fight we would love to have. Imamu is in great shape, and after his win over Caputo Smith, he has the confidence that he can beat any cruiserweight out there,” אמר Lamanna. “Jones has beating lesser guys, and a win over either of them would catapult Imamau back into the rankings and then he can see his way back to the title. The fight would make sense as it would put two older guys together in a fight that would have meaning. I am rooting for Gunn tonight, Bobby is a gentleman. If Bobby can pull the victory off הלילה, Mayfield vs Gunn would be a big draw in New Jersey because both guys live in the Garden State. The point being is simple, if Imamu can’t beat the likes of Roy Jones’s or Bobby Gunn than who can he beat?”

CASABLANCA, מרוקו (פבואר 2, 2017) – Former Interim cruiserweight world champion יורי “אל טורו” Kalenga will provide chief support פבואר 18 for pro-debuting Moroccan amateur boxing sensation Mohammad Rabii ב “Battle of Casablanca” כרטיס, presented by Nowhere2Hyde, at Complexe de Sportif Mohammed V Arena in Casablanca, מרוקו.
Kalenga (22-3, 15 קוס), fighting out of France by way of The Congo, is currently rated No. 12 על ידי עולם אגרוף האיגוד (WBA) ולא. 16 על ידי מועצת אגרוף העולם (WBC). The knockout artist takes on Garrett “הלוחם האולטימטיבי” וילסון (17-11-1, 9 קוס), של פילדלפיה, who is a former United States Boxing Association (לַעֲרוֹך) and North American Boxing Federation (NABF) אלוף.
ב 2014, Kalenga captured the WBA Interim title with a 12-round split decision over 32-1 מטאוש מאסטרנק במונקו, followed with a successful title defense in Canada against 12-0 דנטון דיילי by way of a 12ה נוקאאוט טכני עגול.
Kalenga has never been in a dull fight. Two of his three career losses have been to current WBA Super cruiserweight champion דניס לבדב (26-2), who Kalenga dropped in the fourth round, by way of a 12-round unanimous decision in Russia, and last June he was stopped for the first time in his seven-year pro career by 20-0 יוניור Dorticos in Paris for the Interim WBA strap.
The 23-year-old Rabii defeated 2016 מדליסט זהב האולימפי דניאר ילוסינוב in the welterweight division championship finale of the 2015 AIBA World Amateur Championships to capture a gold for his native Morocco. Rabii won a bronze medal at the 2016 משחקים אולימפיים בברזיל, dropping a highly-disputed decision (0-3) in the semifinals to Uzebek boxer Shakhram Giyasov, the eventual silver medalist.
The ultra-charismatic Rabii has reached “rock star” status in Morocco, testament by an average of 6-million Moroccans viewing each of Rabbi’s Olympic matches on Arryadia Television. “We are very excited to work with our television partners, Arryadia, on our February 18ה show as the first of five shows in 2017 featuring Mohammed Rabii,” אמרגן גארי הייד אמר. “Rabii has the entire nation of Morocco behind him and he will be challenging for top welterweight honors in no time at all.”
Rabii will take on veteran Hungarian boxer אדם “ילד רע” Mate (24-10, 17 קוס) באירוע הראשי בן ששת הסיבובים.
Also in action on “Battle of Casablanca” will be former World Boxing Association (WBA) וארגון האגרוף הבינלאומי (IBO) world featherweight champion, Simpiwe Vetyeka (29-3, 17 קוס), who is world ranked No. 4 על ידי WBA, לא. 6 על ידי הטבעת מגזין, ולא. 7 על ידי WBC. The gifted South African faces undefeated Hungarian prospect David Nerna (8-0, 8 קוס) בהתקף 10-עגול.
Netherlands light middleweight Gevorg Khatchikian (24-2, 12 קוס) will also be in action against Ugandan Med “Kabona” Sebyala (16-8-1. 13 קוס) in another 10-rounder. Khatchikian, who will be fighting as a 154-pounder for the first time as a professional, has only lost twice as a pro, both to present super middleweight world champions, James Degale (IBF) ו ז'ילברטו רמירז (WBO).
Hyde manages Rabii, Kalanga and Vetyeka.
Tickets are now on sale for the פבואר. 18 show in Casablanca.

Caribe Promotions loses rights to Shumenov-Dorticos WBA cruiserweight title fight; TGB Promotions awarded rights
לאס וגאס (ינואר 31, 2017) – The World Boxing Association (WBA) has notified WBA cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu and WBA Interim cruiserweight title-holder יוניור Dorticos, as well as their representatives, that Caribe Promotions has lost its rights to promote the WBA mandated Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight.
Dorticós’ אמרגן, Caribe Promotions, originally won the Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight rights last November with a winning purse bid of $350,001, which required a fight date within 90 ימים. Although rumored to be held in mid-February in either Miami or Las Vegas, Caribe’s ability and willingness to actually promote the fight came into question in January, 2017. The WBA demanded that Caribe confirm its intentions and even granted Caribe additional time to respond, but Caribe failed to file confirmation of a fight date with the WBA. Because Caribe was unable to confirm its intentions, the WBA had little choice but to award rights to the second-highest purse bidder, Tom Brown’s TGB Promotions.
“I last fought ה -21 מאי and I have been in the gym since June because I was supposed to fight Lebedev in September,” said a terribly frustrated Shumenov. “But he backed out of the fight with me once again and I have been ready to fight since then. I signed a bout agreement to fight Dorticos on 11 בפברוארבמיאמי, but Dorticos and his promoter disappeared after I signed. They’re full of it; all they do is talk. I can’t wait to knock him out. I am waiting on my manager to call me right now to tell me the new fight date with TGB.”
Caribe Promotions has been forced to also forfeit its $35,000 purse bid deposit with 10-percent off the top going to the WBA and remainder ($31,500) distributed to Shumenov and Dorticos, בהתאמה, on a 75-25 percent basis due to its failure to promote the fight.
Shumenov (17-2, 11 קוס), fighting out of Las Vegas by way of Kazakhstan, fought last מאי 21, כשהוא הפסיק 15-1-1 Junior רייט ב 10ה round of their Las Vegas fight for the vacant WBA World cruiserweight title. The WBA had ruled that the Shumenov-Wright winner would be the mandatory challenger for its “Super” אלוף, לבדב, within 90 ימים, עם זאת, it later allowed unified cruiserweight titlist Lebedev (against Shumenov’s strong objections) to fight his International Boxing Federation (IBF) mandatory defense against challenger מוראט Gassiev, effectively mandating an eliminator between Shumenov and Dorticos with that winner to fight the winner of Lebedev-Gassiev. Only days prior to the Lebedev-Gassiev title fight, Lebedev was inexplicably allowed to fight Gassiev without defending his WBA title, as only his IBF belt was on the line. Gassiev (24-0) defeated Lebedev (29-3) by way of a 12-round split decision in Moscow to become the IBF cruiserweight world champion and Lebedev remains the WBA Super cruiserweight world champion, at least for now. The WBA is expected to rule on Shumenov’s objections to Lebedev’s fight against Gassiev, Lebedev’s status and whether Lebedev will remain champion having lost his last fight.
Dorticos has made false claims in the media that Shumenov, who had been waiting for the WBA to rule on his petitions to force Lebedev to fight him without further delay, had been avoiding him. It is ironic now that Dorticos’ own promoter first sought to delay and has now defaulted on the long-awaited confrontation by failing to promote the Shumenov-Dorticos title fight within the WBA deadline.
A former WBA Super light heavyweight world champion, the 33-year-old Shumenov is the first two-division world champion from a Soviet-bloc country.
