לאַס וועגאַס, נוו (אָקטאָבער 30, 2017) – As his November 4טה date approaches, unbeaten super-lightweight prospect, 18-year old phenom, Devin “The Dream” Haney (17-0, 11 קאָס), shares his thoughts on training camp and more, as he prepares for his fight withHamza Sempewo (14-8, 7 קאָס) of Kampala, Uganda.
Haney vs. Sempewo, אַ 8-קייַלעכיק באַוט, will take place at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis Hotel in Atlanta, גאַ, and serve as the co-main event to heavyweight’s, Devin “The General” Vargas (19-4, 7 קאָס) פון Toledo, אָהיאָ, ווס. Galen “שלעכט יינגל” ברוין (44-38-1, 25 קאָס) פון סט. Joseph’s, מאַזעראַ.
Here is what Devin Haney, די WBC Youth World Lightweight title holder, had to say ahead of his November 4טה שאָודאַון:
On his recent training camp in Las Vegas…
“I’m constantly grinding in the gym, trying to get better. No one is working harder than me. I’ve been working closely with “The Body Snatcher” מייק מקקאַללום, and he’s showing me some old veteran tricks. I’ve been sparring with all the top fighters in Las Vegas, getting that good work. I feel strong going into this fight. I’m in great shape.”
On having his father William Haney guiding his career…
“My dad is great and he’s always by my side every step of the way. He comes from the music industry, where he was very successful, so he knows how to build a star. I’m very grateful to have him in my corner. Together we are a force in the boxing world, and I know with hard work, I’ll be the next super-star in boxing.”
On the importance of staying active…
“It’s very important to stay active in boxing, because in this sport, its all about that live action. Fighting with no headgear and smaller gloves is a big difference as opposed to sparring. The more fights I can get under my belt, the better I’ll be when I hit the big stage.”
On fighting in Atlanta, Georgia for the first time…
“Atlanta is a major city and I’m going to give the fans in attendance a fight they’ll remember for years to come. Fighting in the South is a great opportunity to expand the Devin Haney Promotions brand. I want to fight in as many big cities as possible.”
On the state of the super-lightweight division…
“The super-lightweight division is stacked with a lot of great fighters. Terrance Crawfordsits atop the division, און צו מיר, he’s one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world. I’m on my way up and I’m confident in my ability to become a world champion. I’ve been in the ring with Floyd Mayweather, Shawn Porter and a lot of other great fighters, so my confidence is extremely high. I’m gunning for everyone in the division. I know I can get down with the best of them.”
The card titled, “Remembering Our Fallen Officers Charity Boxing Gala” is being promoted by Fight Tyme Promotions, די Atlanta Boxing Association, in conjunction with Devin Haney Promotions. A live Pay-Per-Stream broadcast will be available exclusively on Fight Tyme Live פֿאַר $5.99.

Tinoco, known for being a rugged fighter, was no match for Haney as he dominated from start to finish. Devin used his superior boxing skills to outclass Tinoco, working off angels, while landing his punches at will. אין קייַלעכיק פיר, Haney hurt Tinoco with a vicious straight right-cross, putting the Mexican native on wobbly legs, prompting a 10-8 round on one of the judges’ סקאָרעקאַרדס. Tinoco managed to survive to the final bell, but took a beating along the way. Final scorecards read 80-71, 80-72 צוויי מאָל.
“Tinoco was a very durable opponent who’s been in the ring with some notable fighters,” said Devin Haney. “I knew if I stuck to my game plan, everything would work out. I’m only 18-years old, but I feel like a polished pro. With every fight, I’m learning something new. I just want to be the best possible fighter I can be. All the hard work is paying off.
מיט די געווינען, Haney, who currently holds the WBC Youth World Lightweight Title, has plans to get right back in the ring. Devin has already fought six times this year.
“My goal is to fight three more times in 2017,” said Devin Haney. “Last year I had nine fights, and I want to stay on that pace to close out the year. The team I have behind me is amazing. My father William and everyone he’s put on the team, their all doing a fantastic job guiding my career. I’m truly blessed to be where I’m at this stage of my life. I’m marching forward with the goal to become a world champion. I’m a hungry fighter, and I won’t be denied.”
Prospect Known as ‘The Future of Boxing’ Appearing Tonight in Philadelphia

הייַנט בייַ נאַכט (סעפּטעמבער 22), at the SugarHouse Casino in Philadelphia, a young prospect being called “the future of boxing” by 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” געשעעניש, WBC Youth World Lightweight Champion and top-ranked amateur, Devin “The Dream” Haney (16-0, 11 קאָס), will face Mexico’s Enrique Tinoco (16-4-3, 12 קאָס) in an eight-round showcase. The event is topped by Philadelphia heavyweight Joey “די טאַנק” דאַוועדזשקאָ (17-4-4, 10 קאָס) taking on Detroit’s Demetrius Banks (9-1, 4 קאָס) in an eight-round battle. Tickets are priced at Front row VIP: $150, וויפּ: $100, רינגסייד: $65 און אַלגעמיינע אַדמיססיאָן: $45 and can be purchased at 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 און, אין עלטער 18, is undefeated in 16 פייץ. 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. What do you think of your opponent, ענריקווע טינאָקאָ? 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?’ עס Feels גרויס. 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. הייַנט בייַ נאַכט, טירן עפענען בייַ 6PM און דער ערשטער באַוט איז ביי 7PM. The Sugarhouse casino is located at 1001 N Delaware Avenue אין פילאדעלפיע. |

לאַס וועגאַס (מייַ 21, 2016) – Determined Phoenix middleweight אנדריי “הוראַגאַן” הערנאַנדעז shocked heavy favorite אַריף “The Pedator” מאַגאָמעדאָוו in tonight’s main event on the “Knockout Night at the D” קאָרט, which aired live on קבס ספורט נעטוואָרק from under the neon lights at the ונטערשטאָט לאַס וועגאַס עווענץ צענטראַל (דלוועק) outdoor venue.
די “Knockout Night at the D” סעריע, presented by די ד לאַס וועגאַסand DLVEC, איז פּראָמאָטעד דורך רוי דזשאָנעס דזשוניער. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions. Tonight’s event was promoted in association with Main Events and Shamo Boxing Promotions.
Before a sold-out crowd, הערנאַנדעז (12-4-1, 4 קאָס) pounded world-rated middleweight Magomedov (17-1, 10 קאָס), winning a unanimous 10-round decision (100-89 צוויי מאָל, 98-91) for the vacant USNBC middleweight title. Hernandez hurt Magomedov in the third and seventh rounds, finally dropping the tough Russian (וובאַ #2, WB) #3, וובאַ #5 and IBF #14) אין די 10טה.
“This fight changes everything for me,” Hernandez proclaimed. “He’s very good and deserves all of the accolades he’s received but I now have my head on straight and I’m focused. My jab was very important tonight. He’s very strong but I wanted to fight him inside because I knew he couldn’t take it from me. איך איז געווען זייער צוגעגרייט. I think I may have broken my ankle in the fourth round but I kept going. I wanted to finish him, get the knockout, but he’s a very tough fighter. He has heart and showed why he has all of those accolades.”
Four weeks ago, Hernandez was preparing to fight as a cruiserweight. He lost 40 pounds to make weight for this middleweight fight in what turned out to be one of the biggest upsets of the year.

 Southpaw super welterweights יוחנן “The Phenom” וועראַ (14-0, 9 קאָס), of Fort Worth, and Phoenix’ דזשאָוי “באָקסער” Ruelas (10-2-1, 4 קאָס) went toe-to-toe from the opening bell and they never let up in the co-feature. Vera exploded in the round of this firestorm, battering the game Ruelas around, until referee Jay Nady halted the action in the sixth round. Vera remained undefeated and retained his NABA-USA title.
“I knew eventually he’d put his hands down and I’d catch him,” Vera explained. “I thank him for the opportunity to fight. He’s helluva fighter, I give him that, but I know I’m a warrior. I took some shots but gave ’em, צו. I broke him down and just kept throwing those lefts.”
 (ל-ר) – John Vera & Joey Ruelas
In the TV opener, boxing prodigy Devin “The Dream” Haney (6-0, 4 קאָס) made history as the 17-year-old – a junior in high school – became the youngest American professional boxer to fight on national television. די פלויד מייַוועאַטהער, סיסטער.-trained Haney, fighting out of Las Vegas in front of his rapidly growing fan-base, showcased his vast skills against previously undefeated Mexican invader Jairo “El Leon” Vargas (Fernandez), unloading 14 unanswered punches for a 4טה round technical knockout victory. Nady stopped the fight without counting when a badly hurt Vargas (4-1, 3 קאָס) hit the deck hard.
“I happy that I put on a good performance for my fans,” Haney commented after the fight. “My team put together the strategy to use my jab and breakdown his body. I picked up my combinations did what I was told to do.”
 (ל-ר) — Devin Haney & Jairo Vargas
In a battle of Texas junior welterweights, Tony Lopez (11-1, 4 קאָס) dropped previously unbeaten Jerren “Hardknocks” Cochran (11-1-1, 4 קאָס) twice with lefts in the opening round and finished him off in the second, knocking him out cold with a punishing right.
“Two mores seconds and I would have finished him off in the first,” Lopez remarked. “My corner told me that, after the lefts, come back with a right. They gave me the game plan and I executed.”
 (ל-ר) Tony Lopez & Jerren Cochran
אין דער עפענונג באַוט, Las Vegas favorite Jeremy “J-Flash” Nichols (4-0, 2 קאָס) dominated Puerto Rican welterweight יולי “El Indio” סאַנטאָס (2-3, 1 קאָ) on his way to a win by unanimous 4-round decision.
“I know I could have done a little better, throwing more combinations and jab,” Nichols said. “He came in trying but he couldn’t fight. I sent him back to Puerto Rico with a loss.”
 (ל-ר) Jeremy Nichols & Julio Santos
