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

WORCESTER, Mass. (August 19, 2018) – Seven years after his last fight, “Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera returned to the ring in grand fashion last night (Lørdag) til overskrift “Homecoming, presented by Granite Chin Promotions in association with Rivera Promotions Entertainment, på Palladium i Worcester, Massachusetts.

 

 

 

The 45-year-old Rivera (42-6-1, 25 KOs), 35 pounds lighter than he was in February when he started training, packed the house in his hometown, fully entertained his supportive fans. Tre ganger, two-division world champion Rivera pressured Larry “Slomoshun: Smith (10-38-1, 7 KOs) 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.

 

 

 

Endelig, 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. Jeg føler stor. 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).”

 

 

 

Jose Antonio Rivera (R) had a successful comeback fight

 

 

 

I co verdig begivenhet, Worcester super middleweight Kendrick Ball, Jr. (10-1-2, 7 KOs) demolished Fabian “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 KOs) og Antonio Chaves Fernandez (9-34, 4 KOs) 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 Wilfredo “den Sucaro” Pagan (5-0, 3 KOs) forble ubeseiret, using a relentless body attack to drop Engelberto “Guarura” Valenzuela (11-15, 3 KOs) tre ganger, the last ending the fight midway through the third round.

 

 

 

Springfield, MA junior lightweight Joshua Orta (1-0, 1 KO) turned in an impressive pro debut in a barn-burner that ended when (1-8-1, 1 KO), 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 Bryan “The Brick” Abraham (6-31-2, 6 KOs) to ganger i den andre runden, på vei til en enstemmig avgjørelse seier.

 

 

 

In the opening bout of the night, 45-år gammel Jose Angel “KO” Ortiz (5-14-1, 2 KOs) droppet 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.

“Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera to headline “Homecoming”

Legg igjen en kommentar
The Champ er tilbake!
August 17 på Palladium i Worcester, MA
“Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera hitting the pads with his trainer Sean Fitzgerald

 

WORCESTER, Mass. (Juli 31, 2018) – A dozen years after he captured his third world title in two different weight classes, seven since his last fight, “Gallo” Jose Rivera returns to the ring August 17 til overskrift “Homecoming”, presented by Granite Chin Promotions (GCP) in association with Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), på Palladium i Worcester, Massachusetts.

 

 

 

The 45-year-old Rivera (41-6-1, 24 KOs) has already lost more than 30 pounds, 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 KOs) in the eight-round main event.

 

 

 

I 1997, Rivera captured the International Boxing Organization (IBO) World welterweight title, stoppe Gilberto Flores i den andre runden. Six years later, he traveled to Germany to take on undefeated, hjemby favoritt Michel Trabant (38-0) for the vacant World Boxing Association (WBA) 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 Garcia(25-1) for the WBA World super welterweight title.

 

 

 

“The idea to return to the ring started with my son. AJ, and I talking about chasing history,” Rivera forklart. “We are not able to put that together right now (A.J. was born with Spina Bifida and he was unable to secure medical clearance in time for the Aug. 17th 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 lagt, “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. Jeg kjempet på 49 år, 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 Chris (Traietti, GCP co-promoter) and I would be co-promoting Jose’s comeback? Do Not, 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. Akkurat nå, 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 som en proff, 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. 17th opponent from Indiana, has fought other world champions, Including Zab Judah, Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr., Jorge Paez og Paul Spadafora.

 

 

 

“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.

 

 

 

“Og, Selvfølgelig, 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 “Homecoming” because six fighters in action are from Worcester, including three who’ve never fought there before as professionals.

 

 

 

Mellom Kendrick Ball, Jr. (9-1-2, 6 KOs) and junior middleweight Khiary Gray (15-4, 11 KOs), 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 Demetrius Walker (8-21-2, 4 KOs) in the co-featured event, while Gray (15-4, 11 KOs) ansikter Antonio Chaves Fernandez (9-33, 4 KOs), of Brockton, MA, in a rematch of a fight won by Gray.

 

 

 

Also scheduled to fight on the undercard in four-round bouts are Springfield, MA weltervekt Jose Angel “KO” Ortiz (4-13-1, 1 KO) vs. Seth Basler (0-8) and pro-debuting featherweight Joshua Orta vs. Worcester’s Edwin Rosado (1-7-1, 1 KO), Southbridge, MA weltervekt Wilfredo “den Sucaro” Pagan (4-0, 2 KOs) vs. TBA, and Worcester’s pro-debuting welterweight Eslih Owusu.vs. Bryan “The Brick” Abraham (6-30-2, 6 KOs).

Her er hva jagerfly hadde å si Fredag:
MALIK SCOTT
“Min ferdighet sett var bra, men dette er en av disse kassetter jeg vil hate å se på når jeg kommer hjem. Tony slapp unna med en mye. Jeg var å gjøre ham gå glipp av og ikke gjøre ham betale. Men la oss ikke glemme Jeg har ikke kjempet for et helt år. Jeg må få mer aktiv, så etter denne kampen, vi får se hva som skjer videre. Jeg er aldri fornøyd med mine forestillinger, men det er det som holder meg gående.
“Jeg ble såret i den niende, definitivt. Men jeg er i god form, og jeg var ikke bekymret for det. Jeg fikk gjennom det og la ham vite at han måtte gjøre det igjen for å vinne denne kampen.
“Tonys beina er veldig treg, så jeg var bare å miste ham med føttene hele natten lang.”
TONY THOMPSON
“Han var litt for fort. Hvis jeg var yngre ville jeg ha tatt ham. En førsteklasses Tony ville ha sparket han i ræva, men jeg er 44 og årene begynner å hope seg opp.
“Malik gjorde en flott jobb med å bo borte før jeg var i stand til å fange ham med ett godt skudd. Han bare pitty-klappet seg til seier.
“Jeg ville vurdere min ytelse en D i beste fall. Jeg var den aggressive, men jeg fikk ikke utrydde ham god nok til sent i kampen. Treneren min holdt fortelle meg å gå til høyre, men uansett grunn jeg bare begynte å gå til høyre sent i kampen. Det var da jeg tok ham.
“Det var en fremragende ytelse ved Malik. Han gjorde hva han skal gjøre til en eldre fighter.”
SERGEY LIPINETS
“Han løp for mye. Han ønsket ikke å kjempe. Det er veldig vanskelig å kjempe noen som ikke virkelig ønsker å kjempe.
“Jeg hadde ham vondt i det åttende, niende og tiende runder. Definitivt. Jeg var skade ham med hvert slag, men han holdt så mye det var ikke lett å drepe ham. Pluss han tar en god punsj.
“Jeg lærte å sette flere kombinasjoner sammen. Jeg kom til å kjempe, ikke kjøre.
“Han tror han har vunnet kampen? Han er den eneste i hele arenaen. Jeg vant hver runde. De ga ham et par runder. Han bør være glad for det.”
Lydell RHODES
“Dommen er hva som gikk galt. Jeg vant denne kampen. Jeg følte jeg hadde kontroll det meste av kampen før de siste par runder.
“Han kom på sterk i senere runder. Han fanget meg i den syvende, åttende og niende runder, men jeg kontrollerte de første seks.
“Han var ikke så sterk. Han hadde bra trykk, men jeg ble aldri skadet i kampen.
“Jeg vet at jeg vant denne kampen.”
SAMUEL FIGUEROA
“Jeg jobbet hardt trening for denne kampen. Den sparring i leiren var enestående. Jeg var i god tilstand for denne kampen.
“Jeg visste Javontae var en stor fighter, men jeg var forberedt for ham. Han slo meg mye, men jeg var i for godt av form til å bli såret.
“Jeg er så takknemlig for denne muligheten. Jeg setter pris på det. Prichard Colon dette var for deg.”
JAVONTAE Starks
“Det var min feil for å forlate det til dommerne. Jeg føler at jeg kunne ha gjort mye mer.
“En enstemmig avgjørelse er litt vanskelig å ta. Jeg ga mye runder bort. Jeg trenger å være travlere neste gang. Det var en lærerik opplevelse.
“Det tar karakter å komme tilbake fra et tap, og jeg vil komme tilbake bedre enn noensinne.”
GERVONTA DAVIS
“Jeg gjorde det bra. Jeg trenger å jobbe med noen ting. Jeg lyttet til mitt hjørne og til Floyd, Jeg er takknemlig for alle som fikk meg forberedt.
“Vi får rett tilbake inn i ringen og fortsetter å bli bedre.”
FLOYD Mayweather
“Gervonta er en ung gutt fra Baltimore som kommer fra en grov bakgrunn som meg selv. Han jobber hardt og er dedikert til sporten boksing.
“Mayweather Kampanjer ønsker å ta ham med til neste nivå. Det ultimate målet er å se ham bryte alle mine poster.”
