HEAVYWEIGHT UPSET BREWING IN DETROIT?
Gormley Confident that Undefeated Ruiz Will Taste Defeat at ‘Detroit Brawl’ par Sestdiena, Jūlijs 16
, at Masonic Temple Having already experienced being a world-rated TV-level fighter under tremendous pressure to win every fight impressively, Miami-based slugger Josh “Dempsey” Gormley says he much prefers the lowered expectations of being considered the “pretinieks” since coming back to boxing.
“There’s a lot of pressure on you as the A-side guy,” explained Gormley. “As an opponent, I’m supposed to lose, so when I win it’ll be that much more dramatic.”
Gormley (22-4, 21 Kos) will face WBO #5-, IBF #5-, and WBC #7-rated and current NABF heavyweight champion Andy “The Destroyer from Mexicali” Ruiz (27-0, 18 Kos) in a non-title fight Šo sestdien Detroitā. The two bruising heavyweights will meet in the 10-round main event of Salita Promotions’ latest “Detroit Brawl” event at the Masonic Temple.
Sponsored by Thomas Magee’s Sporting House Whiskey Bar, biļetes “Detroit Brawl” will be priced at VIP $123, Box Seats $100, Ringside $93, Reserved $63 un $38, and Balcony $28, and are available at all Ticketmaster outlets and Tickmaster.com.
Gormley says he isn’t prepared to go along with the expected outcome for a 41-year-old fighter taking on a top contender in just his third fight since returning from a 16-year retirement. He’s coming to Detroit to win.
“Viņš ir ideāls par mani,” he said of Ruiz. “I feel like I’m fighting the weakest guy in the top 10. He doesn’t punch hard and I won’t have to look for him. He comes forward a lot and he’s not Floyd Mayweather. I don’t think he can handle my power. Now that I’m older, I hit harder than ever and I’m in great shape. I doubt it’ll last the distance. I’ll get him out of there in about five rounds. Even if he does, I’m in great shape to beat him over the distance.”
Gormley, reportedly the grandson of all-time-great heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey, pagriezās Pro 1992 and flirted with world-contender status before suffering a pair of tough losses and retiring in 1999. Tomēr, bokss, like any addiction, eventually lured him back.
“I just want to take opportunities and see what I can do,” viņš teica. “Uzvarēt vai zaudēt, I’m just carrying on my legacy and seeing what I can still do. My goal is to be champ of the world. But I’m not chasing that dream lie I used to. A long time ago I chased the heavyweight championship dream so hard that every loss was devastating. Tagad, I want to take the opportunities as they come and win some of them. And hey, when I beat this guy, I’m back in the top 10!”
Scheduled in support of the main event that night will be Giorgi Gelashvili (4-0, 2 Kos) of Brooklyn via Georgia facing comebacking veteran Eric Hall (8-9-1, 4 Kos) of Durand, Michigan in a super lightweight six-rounder.

MIAMI (Aprīlis 6, 2015) – Veteran boksa menedžeris John Seip ir parakstīts ļoti dekorēts Itālijas amatieru bokseris Daniel Mark Scardina uz ekskluzīvu vadības līgumu.
Seip ir vislabāk zināms, lai vadītu Peter “Kid Chocolate” Quillin Pasaules Boksa organizācijas (WBO) pasaule middleweight virsraksts. Dzimtā New Yorker arī pārvalda pieaug britu super middleweight Zobens “Stallion” Woodall (7-0-1, 5 Kos).
21 gadus vecais Scardina nāk no Rozzano, pilsēta ir mazāks par 40,000 cilvēki Milānas provinces. Viņš sāka boksa in 2008 gadu vecumā 16, sekojot sava onkuļa pēdās, kurš bija bokseris tajā laikā, kā arī Daniele lomu modeli.
Scardina, kas bija 56 amatieru bouts, Uzņemtie augstākos apbalvojumus daudzās Itālijas turnīriem, ieskaitot Rovereto Nacionālās, National Silver Glove, un divi Valsts Golden Gloves. Viņš arī ieguva bronzas medaļu starptautiskā pasākumā.

Scardina pirmais nozvejotas seip uzmanību uz pasaules slaveno 5th St. Gym in Miami Beach, sākotnēji atklāja 1950 līdz Chris Dundee, un mājas neskaitāmu pasaules čempioniem ir jāapmāca, ieskaitot Muhammad Ali, Carmen Basilio, Willie Pastrano, Emile Griffith, Archie Moore, Roberto Duran, Sonny Liston un Willie Pep. Bagāts tradīcija turpinās pie jaunā 5th St. Sporta zāle, Netālu atrodas at 1434 Alton Street, kur top cīnītāji no visas pasaules, piemēram, Bernard Hopkins vēl apmācīt.
“Es pirmo reizi redzēju viņu apmācību laikā 5th St. Gym un viņš izskatījās kā tipisks amatieru,” Seip paskaidroja. “Viņš nometa plašas perforatori un nezināja, kā mest labu durt. Trainers Guy Laieta un Dino Spencer sāka strādāt ar viņu, un tagad viņš ir, izmantojot savu redzesloku, cīņai pret attāluma, un throwing kombinācijas Jabs un āķi. Viņš ir kaislīgs par boksa, klausīšanās un mācīšanās katru dienu. Daniele ir labas rokas ātrumu un jaudu. Viņš ir skaists mazulis, pārāk. Es redzēju kaut ko viņā, nemateriālie, un nolēma parakstīt viņu.
“Dino ir īpašnieks, kas ir izveidojis top-iecirtums sporta zāle ar lielu Sparring iespējām atmosfērā attēloti tik daudz talantīgu kaujinieki, kas tiešām push viens otru. Tas jau skaidrs, ka Danielle ir vēl uzlaboja savu prasmju apmācību. Viņš ir garš, ātrs un jaudīgs. Viņa darba ētika ir neticami; viņš ir pirmais sporta zālē, pēdējais atstāt.
