ORLANDO, Fla. (März 13, 2023) – Many of the most promising boxing prospects in Florida, including several promising Cuban boxers, will be showcased on the “Night of Redemption” card, am Samstagabend, April 1, at Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, Florida.  

“Night of Redemption,” co-promoted by Orlando Boxing Promotions and Boxlab Promotions, will be streamed live on pay-per-view from Orlando onwww.boxtv.com

“Caribe Royale is looking forward to hosting ‘Night of Redemption’ on April 1st,” said Amaury Piedra, Managing Director, Caribe Royale Resort. “This joint promotion between Boxlab Promotions and Orlando Boxing Promotions will feature a mix of a current regional champion in Idalberto Umara defends his Fedecaribe title, along with up-and-coming prospects such as Orlando’s Adrian Pinheiro, Jeovanny Estela, Joshua Lebron, and others. We’re always proud to have activities at The Resort like this boxing card, which brings in visitors and locals alike. This should be a great night allowing our local young talent to showcase their skills in Central Florida’s home of Boxing, the Caribe Royale Resort.”

“I’m super excited to be promoting my first show in Orlando where I live,” remarked Orlando Boxing Promotions president Tony Blanco, who lived and promoted shows in Connecticut. “To be promoting this show with Boxlab, which is a big boxing company here in Central Florida, and its crew at a beautiful venue like Caribe Royale Resort is amazing.”

Unbeaten Polish cruiserweight Adrian “Pretty Boy” Pinheiro (10-0-1, 9 KOs), fighting out of Orlando, will headline in the 8-round main event against Demetrius Banks (5 KOs), von Detroit. The 25-year-old Pinheiro is coming off his lone non-victory as a professional this past February 25, fighting Isaiah Thompson to a 6-round split draw. Bank is best known for ruining the professional debut of Antwaun Tubbs, the son of former world heavyweight champion Tony Tubbsby way of a 4-round technical knockout in 2014.

“Adrian is seeking redemption after he fought to a draw in his last fight (Februar. 25th vs. Isaiah Thompson),” added Blanco, who trains Pinhiero. “He’s stepping up to fight his first scheduled 8-round bout and his first main event. He’s coming off a draw but he’s looking at it as a loss. He wants to put that fight behind and move forward. Not only did he want to go 8 Runde, but he also wanted to fight a tough, durable opponent. Most fighters coming off a draw, they’d want a tune-up fight to build back their confidence, but Adrian is ready for what’s coming next for him in his career.”

The 6-round co-featured event undefeated 22-year-old Jeovanny Estela, 10-0, 3 KOs) will put his perfect pro record on the line against Saul “Navajo” Corrall (23-20, 13 KOs), von Mexiko. Corrall, who is a former WBC FECARBOX welterweight champion, clearly represents the toughest test of Estela’s young pro boxing career. Battle-tested Corrall has been in the ring with world champions such as Sadam Ali and Victor Ortiz, as well as several contenders, and hot prospects like Estella.

Cuban Idalberto Umara (9-1, 6 KOs), Bekämpfung von Miami, will make his first title defense of the WBA Fedecaribe Lightweight crown in a 10-round title fight versus a challenger to be announced. Umara captured his Fedecarbie championship belt in his last fight by way of a second-round technical knockout of Deivi Julio this past February 25th at Caribe Royale in Orlando.

Two other Cuban boxers are scheduled to be in action. Miami-based Damian Lascaille (3-0, 2 KOs) vs. TBA in a 4-rounder, while Las Vegas heavyweight Henrich Ruiz Cordoba (1-0, 1 KO) is matched in a 6-round bout against veteran Mexican fighter Jose “Olympico” Humberto Corrall (20-32, 12 KOs).

Orlando cruiserweight Daine Smikle (1-0), who was a member of the Jamaican National Boxing Team, is a former Connecticut resident (New Haven) like Blanco who has also resettled in Orlando. Smikle is in a 4-round match vs. TBA.

Also fighting in the undercard is 4-rounders are Orlando super welterweight Ramiro De Jesus (2-0, 1 KO) vs. pro-debuting Bryan Duran, von Miami; Orlando cruiserweight A’Mire “Devine” Lewis (4-0, 3 KOs) vs. TBA, Orlando lightweight and Puerto Rico native Jonathan Cortes (1-0, 1 KO) vs. TBA; and Orlando’s super bantamweight Joshua Lebron (5-0-1, 4 KOs) vs. TBA.

PRESSER-ANGEBOTE
Sal Musumeci, CEO von The Real Deal Boxing: “Es ist uns eine Ehre, hier in Rhode Island zu sein. So viele Champions kommen hier durch und wir sind aus diesem Grund hier und seine großartigen Boxfans. Ich habe Werbung gemacht 20 Jahre mit mehr als 400 Shows weltweit. Ich weiß, wohin wir mit Menschen gehen wollen, die das Boxen schätzen.”
“Evander und ich haben uns zusammengetan, um The Real Deal Boxing zusammenzustellen, weil wir die gleichen Shows wollen, zwei Krieger im Ring, und das werden Sie sehen Freitag Nacht am Stand. Vielen Dank für die Annahme ist hier. Toka ist eine großartige Inspiration. Als ich seine Geschichte zum ersten Mal hörte, mein COO (Eric Bentley) traurig, dass wir ihn unterschreiben müssen. Er ist in einem harten Kampf. Toka nahm die Herausforderung an, weil er glaubt, Weltmeister zu werden.”
“Turchi ist ein ungeschlagenes Cruisergewicht, das zu einem Schwergewicht heranwachsen wird. Ein italienisches Schwergewicht wie der große Rocky Marciano, der so oft in der Vorsehung gekämpft hat.”
“Ich garantiere am Freitag In der Nacht werden Sie die wettbewerbsfähigsten Kämpfe in Providence seit vielen Jahren sehen.”
Evander Holyfield: “Es ist mir eine Ehre, hier zu sein. Ein großer Teil von mir als Promoter ist, wie ich beim Boxen helfen kann? Ich habe um acht angefangen, als mir gesagt wurde, ich wäre wie Ali. Das habe ich geglaubt, aber ich musste meine Mutter fragen (Erlaubnis zum boxen). Ich war viermaliger Weltmeister im Schwergewicht, aber ich hatte auch meine Höhen und Tiefen. Ich erzähle es ihnen (meine Kämpfer), wenn sie zuhören und mich um Rat fragen, Ich werde es ihnen sagen. Das Problem bei Millennials ist heute, dass es wirklich niemanden gibt, der es ihnen sagt. Frag mich einfach, Ich erzähle es ihnen.”
“Ich bringe viel zum Boxen, aber ich werde nicht sagen, dass ich meine Kämpfer zu Champions machen werde. Ich werde ihnen die Möglichkeit geben, Champion zu werden. Ich hatte Chancen und gab nie auf. Wenn Sie sich Ziele setzen und nicht aufhören, Sie werden dieses Ziel erreichen. Korrigieren Sie Ihre Fehler und geben Sie nicht auf. Diese Kämpfer müssen aber an mich glauben, wichtiger, Sie müssen an sich glauben. Ich kann ihnen Ratschläge geben, weil ich es getan habe. Ich bin auf ihrer Seite.”
Toka Kahn-Clary: “Ich möchte Evander danken, Sal und alle in meinem Team, die mich in meinem Staat kämpfen lassen. Ich möchte auch meiner Krippe danken, Trainer und Dan Crotty. Ich bin glücklich, hier zu sein. Boxen ist nicht einfach, Aber es ist der Weg, den ich gewählt habe. Ich kämpfe hier im nationalen Fernsehen, Vertretung meiner Stadt und meines Staates.”
“Ich werde im Dezember eine Show veranstalten 1st. Es wird nicht einfach, aber ich gehe in den Ring, um alles zu geben. Ich kann es kaum erwarten zu kämpfen!”
Seth DeRobbio, Manager von Toka Kahn-Clary, Irvin Gonzalez, Nick DeLomba & Timmy Ramos:
“Ich möchte Sal und Evander dafür danken, dass sie der Vorsehung gute Kämpfe beschert haben. Dies ist eine großartige Gelegenheit für Toka, wer kämpft a 19-0 Gegner, Einrichten von a 2018 ein großes Jahr für ihn zu sein. Hoffnungsvoll, Wir werden etwas sehr Großes in die Vorsehung bringen, zu. Sie wissen nicht, wer gewinnen wird Freitag Nacht bis die Kämpfe vorbei sind.”
Peter Manfredo, Sr., Cheftrainer für Kahn-Clary: “Ich möchte Evander danken, Seth, die ganze Crew (Das Real Deal Boxen). Als Seth erwähnte, Toka mit Evander zu unterzeichnen, Ich habe schnell gelernt, dass sie sich um ihre Kämpfer kümmern, keine BS. Hören Sie ihnen zu und Sie schaffen es nach oben.

Prospect Known as ‘The Future of BoxingAppearing Tonight in Philadelphia

Heute Abend (September 22), at the SugarHouse Casino in Philadelphia, a young prospect being calledthe future of boxingby some important people will have the toughest fight of his career.

In one of the main supporting bouts of Hard Hitting Promotions’ (in association with Greg Cohen Promotions & Devin Haney Promotions) “Fight Night at The Sugarhouse” Ereignis, WBC Youth World Lightweight Champion and top-ranked amateur, Devin “Der Traum” Haney (16-0, 11 KOs), will face Mexico’s Enrique Tinoco (16-4-3, 12 KOs) in einer Acht-Runde Vitrine.

The event is topped by Philadelphia heavyweight Joey “The Tank” Dawejko (17-4-4, 10 KOs) taking on Detroit’s Demetrius Banks (9-1, 4 KOs) in an eight-round battle. Tickets are priced at Front row VIP: $150, VIP: $100, Ringside: $65 und General Admission: $45 und können erworben werden bei www.hardhittingpromotions.com.

So advanced in skills at a young age was Haney, a Mayweather family associate, that he turned pro in Mexico at 16 und, im Alter von 18, is undefeated in 16 Kämpfe. He is trained by well-respected former world champion Mike McCallum.

Haney also has the distinction of being the youngest promoter in boxing, as he also operates Devin Haney Promotions.

This is the toughest fight of your career; did you do anything differently in training?

I did the same stuff I always do. This is what I’ve prepared for my whole life, so I’m always ready.

Tell me about working with an all-time great like Mike McCallum as your trainer.

I’ve been working with Mike for about three fights and it’s going great. I’ve learned a lot of things from him.

Was halten Sie von den Gegner denken, Enrique Tinoco?

I saw him fight a while back. Watched him live. He looks rugged and put some pressure on his opponent. He comes to fight, but I definitely know what to do with him. I had a lot of experience in the amateurs and have sparred a lot of great pros. I’m ready for whatever he has to bring to the able.

What’s it feel like when someone like Floyd Mayweather calls you the ‘future of the sport?’

Es fühlt sich großartig. I worked hard for people to acknowledge me in the sport and compare me to the top fighters in boxing right now. Floyd is like a mentor to me. Both Floyds are. I just want to keep training hard an showing everybody that I really am the future of boxing. I don’t feel any pressure to perform perfectly every time though. I don’t believe in pressure. That’s all in the head. I’m just going to go in there and showcase my skills.

Heute Abend, Türen öffnen 6PM und der erste Kampf ist bei 7PM. The Sugarhouse casino is located at 1001 N Delaware Avenue in Philadelphia.

Claressa Shields Dominates to Win WBC Silver Belt, Sets Detroit Brawl Gate Record; Has Sights on World Championship Next

Photos by Boy Ryder

In just her first eight-round fight, Claressa “T-Rex” Shields scored a spectacular unanimous decision victory last Friday, Juni 16, at the Masonic Temple in Detroit to win the WBC Silver Super Middleweight Title.

Shields (3-0, 1KO) dominated tough SydneyGinger the NinjaLeBlanc (4-2-1), winning all eight rounds on all three judgesscorecards en route to adding the WBC Silver belt to her NABF Middleweight Championship belt. LeBlanc was simply no match for the blazing fists of crowd favorite Shields, who has convincingly established herself as a world championship-class contender in women’s boxing after just three professional fights.
Shields’ bout was the main event of a jam-packed Detroit Brawl event which set a new gate record for promoter Dmitriy Salita’s popular Detroit-based series.

Claressa is one of the best boxers in the world!” sagte Dmitriy Salita. “Regardless of gender, her skills and experience are that of the elite fighters in the world. She is improving with each fight and the sky is the limit. Claressa is ready for the top fighters in her division and we will work on making a big championship fight happen next.

In der 10-Runden-Co-Main Event, transplanted Detroit cruiserweight Alexey Zubov moved to 15-1, 9 KOs with a surprisingly easy 10-round decision over Detroit’s highly regarded Demetrius Banks (9-1, 4 KOs).
Von der Eröffnung Glocke, the superior work rate of Zubov told the story, as the confused Banks had no answers for the big Russian’s jab. Alle drei Richter erzielten den Kampf 99-91. There were no knockdowns.
Two of the best cruiserweight prospects in the world met in Detroit,” Fortsetzung Wort. “The winner is now a real contender, ready to fight the best in the world. Alexey is much improved since his time training with Sugar Hill at the Kronk Boxing Gym. The magic of Kronk is alive and came to life in Alexey’s performance. Great things on the horizon for him!”
Another of Salita’s growing stable of promising contenders, Detroit bantamweight Ja’Rico O’Quinn (7-0, 5KOs) had too many tools for the outgunned David Martino (2-3, 2 KOs) and won by dominant unanimous decision (60-54, alle drei Richter). A talent to watch, O’Quinn basically walked the determined Martino into his lightning-fast shots for six rounds.
Ja’Rico’s defense was superb in his fight. His opponent was rarely able to even touch him. He is going to be a force at 118 lbs. in the not-too-distant future.
Another surging contender from the Salita stable, junior welterweight wrecking ball Bakhtiyar Eyubov (13-0, 11 KOs) brauchte nur 1:41 of round one to chew up and spit out Mexico’s Cesar Soriano. Eyubov targeted the body of Soriano and took away his breath with thudding left hoods to the liver that ended things quickly. Eyubov is an animal.
Bakhtiyar went up a weight class because no one will fight him. This fight showed why,” die Wort. “He is too strong for most fighters to stay in with for very long. He will be in a big fight in the near future. He’s ready.
In other results, Michigan’s Antonio Urista (8-2, 2 KOs), pulled off a surprising upset with a six-round unanimous decision (59-53 und 58-54 und 58-54) over Turkmenistan’s Serdar Hudayberdiyev (3-1, 2 KOs). Urista dropped Hudayberdiyev with a looping right hand and he never fully recovered. Both fighters suffered cuts in this rugged affair.
To open the show, Michigan light heavyweight Darren Gibbs (1-2, I KO) picked up his first professional victory with a 30-second TKO1 over debuting Scott McCurdy; Jacob Bonas (3-0-1, 2 KOs) scored a TKO3 over Tony Brooks (1-2) and Dimash Niyazov (10-0-3, 5 KOs) stayed undefeated with a fifth-round TKO over a surprisingly determined Ramon Guevara (10-24-2, 6 KOs).
Thank you to everyone involved in this terrific show,” sagte Dmitriy Salita. “The fans of Michigan asked for world-class boxing and they’ve responded by filling the Masonic Temple. And thank you to all my great sponsors for all their help and congratulations to all the fighters for their brave performances. It is onward and upward for Claressa Shields, who will be back later this summer against a world-class fighter. Deutlich, she is ready for anyone in the world.

Sydney LeBlanc Steps in to Face Two-Time Gold Medalist Claressa Shields for WBC Silver Super Middleweight Championship at Detroit Brawl, Looking for an Upset this Friday

SydneyGinger the NinjaLeBlanc is stepping in on three daysnotice to face Women’s NABF Middleweight Champion, Claressa “T-Rex” Shields of Flint, Michigan, in the eight-round main event of Salita Promotions’ “Detroit Brawl” an diesem Freitag, Juni 16, 2017, at the Masonic Temple in Detroit.
33-year-old LeBlanc (4-1-1) from Gretna, Louisiana, represents a step up in competition from original opponent Mery Rancier, who was unable to participate due to visa issues. A six-year pro who was already in training for a fight on June 10, LeBlanc says she’s eager for the chance to upset the two-time Olympian and budding women’s superstar Shields.
I’ve been pro boxing for nine years, since before the Olympics had a women’s division and I’ve taken a lot of time off because of a lack of available opponents,” explained LeBlanc. “These Olympians are reopening the gates for all female fighters. Everybody was on the shelf for years. This is the first time female boxing has been popular since the Ann Wolfe days, so I’m very appreciative of the opportunities they are bringing. I’ve never watched any of my opponents before a fight, but I know about Claressa Shields and I want to fight her. I’m looking at this fight as a good chance to see where I’m at, skill-wise and I’ll be ready.
Shields vs. LeBlanc will be contested for the WBC Silver Super Middleweight Championship.

In the night’s main supporting bout, undefeated welterweight pulverizer Bakhtiyar Eyubov (12-0, 10 KOs) of Aktjubinsk, Kasachstan, will look to stay busy waiting for his next high-profile step, as he attempts to inflict his crowd-pleasing style on always-tough Cesar Soriano (27-35-1, 16 KOs) Iztacalco, Mexiko, über sechs Runden.
In another of the chief supporting bouts, Detroit’s rising talent and “Great Lakes König” Ja'Rico O'Quinn (6-0, 5 KOs) returns to action in a six-round bantamweight brawl against David Martino (2-2, 2 KOs) of San Felipe, Mexiko.

Aufregender Slugger Eyubov bereit, Soriano bei Salita Promotions auszuschalten’ Detroit Brawl am Freitag, Juni 16, im Freimaurertempel

When you’re an absolute beast in the ring, opponents are hard to come by. Zum Glück, rising junior welterweight contender Bakhtiyar Eyubov is a patient predator.
Chomping at the bit for a big opportunity, Yeyubov (12-0, 10 KOs) of Aktobe, Kasachstan, will rise in weight once again to feast on Iztacalco, Mexico’s Cesar Soriano (27-35-1, 16 KOs) auf Freitag, Juni 16, 2017, at the Masonic Temple in Detroit.
The pair will meet on the undercard of promoter Dmitriy Salita’s blockbuster “Detroit Brawl,” featuring an eight-round main event between two-time Olympic gold medalist Claressa “T-Rex” Shields (2-0, 1 KO) von Flint, Michigan, and Mery Rancier (7-8-3, 5 KOs) Santo Domingo, Dominikanische Republik, for the WBC Silver Super Middleweight Championship.
In der 10-Runden-Co-Main Event, undefeated Detroit cruiserweight Demetrius Banks (9-0, 4 KOs) will face Detroit via Russia’s Alexey Zubov (14-1, 9 KOs).
Tickets für “Detroit Brawl” sind bei VIP festgesetzt $200, Box Sitze $100, Floor Seating $100 & $55, and balcony seating $40, and are available at all Ticketmaster outlets and Ticketmaster.com.
Confident and swaggering in the ring, Eyubov is not just a hard-punching slugger doing his job. Deutlich, Eyubov loves to beat people up, often laughing and dancing during his exciting appearances. While the 30-year-old’s style delights his audiences, being on the receiving end of it isn’t something a lot of fighters are eager to do.
“Wie gewöhnlich, it’s very hard for me to find opponents to fight at my true weight class of junior welterweight,” Said Eyubov. “But I had a great camp and I’m looking forward to putting on a show for the Detroit crowd against a veteran Mexican fighter who is durable, cagey and experienced.
This difficulty finding opponents had forced Eyubov to rise to 147 lbs for many of his ring appearances, including this fight against Soriano. In his biggest victory to date, he also gained weight to score a split decision over well-respected welterweight veteran Karim Mayfield in August of 2016. Der Kampf, a back-and-forth barnburner, was televised live on ShoBox: Die neue Generation.
Und so, with a lack of world-class opponents willing to trade blows, Eyubov says he will continue to work hard and improve with trainer Ismat Niyazov at The Fight Factory in his adopted home of Brooklyn until reaching the point where he can no longer be avoided.
I’ve been working on improving my boxing ability with the intention of landing my power shots in combinations. I love exciting fights and knockouts that’s what I am looking to deliver on June 16 in Detroit. One fight at a time, but I want to fight the best fighters in the junior welterweight and welterweight divisions. I am coming.

He’s very good technically. It’ll be a good fight. I am prepared to show a brand-new Alexey for this fight and how much I have improved working with Sugar.
