2-čas Dominikanski olimpijec Leonel de los Santos Dostava do Bostona

Pustite komentar
Alex Rivera _ Santos.jpg
BOSTON (Maj 4, 2022) – dvakratni dominikanski olimpijec, lahki Leonel de los Santos (6-0, 5 Kos), se morda ustalil na območju Bostona, da bi izboljšal svojo profesionalno boksarsko kariero. Dejansko, pred kratkim je tam preživel mesec dni in se pripravljal na zadnji boj, ki je preteklega marca v njegovi rodni Dominikanski republiki prinesla zmago s sodbo v 6 krogih.


Santosov menedžer, Ryan Roach, živi v Bostonu in trenerju Alexu Riveri je predstavil svojo neporaženo lahko kategorijo, in to je takoj izplačalo dividende v smislu izboljšav.


Santos, 26, treniral v boksarskem klubu Somerville pod Rivero, ki trenira 26-0 velterska Rashidi Ellis, s katerim se je Santos večkrat pomeril, in ameriška olimpijka Rashida Ellis, Rašidijeva sestra.


»Pogoji na našem trening kampu v Bostonu so bili zelo dobri,« je rekel Santos. »Od Alexa sem se v kratkem času naučil veliko novega o profesionalnem boksu, predvsem moja obramba glede izogibanja manjšim bokserjev. Res je pomagal pri mojem nastopu v zadnji borbi.
Rivera je s Santosom delal le dva tedna, ampak oba sta se takoj povezala.


»Leonel je dober boksar z veliko izkušnjami,« se je spomnila Rivera. "Ima hitrost in moč. Delali smo na tem, da bi bil bolj tehnično zdrav. Gre za udarjanje, ne da bi bili zadeti. Je zelo visok za svojo težo – 5’ 8’ ali 5’ 9” – z dobrim dosegom. Takoj sva se razumela, in kot da sva že dolgo delala skupaj. Mislim, da lahko naredi nekaj hrupa s svojim amaterskim ozadjem. Ima vsa orodja. Malo me spominja na Ryana Garcio: visok in močan za svojo težo. Leonel ima vse, kar je potrebno.


»Nisem bil z Leonelom na njegovem zadnjem boju, vendar sem si ogledal nekaj utrinkov. Tip, s katerim se je boril (Andres Bens Zapata) res bi lahko prevzel udarec. Leonelove roke so po boju otekle, ker je toliko udaril nasprotnika. Leonel ga je udaril z vsem, kar je imel. Opazil sem, kako sta se njegova obramba in razdalja izboljšali. Na tem smo delali. Držal se je na razdalji in imel čist boj."


Santos, ki ima sorodnike, ki živijo v bližnjem Lawrenceu, MA, zaprosi za delovni vizum za usposabljanje pri Riveri.


»Mislim, da je trening z Alexom močno izboljšal Leonelov boks in merjenje časa,« je dodal Santosov menedžer Roach. »Alex je veliko delal na daljavo, kar bo privedlo do več moči za njegovimi streli. V Leonelovi zadnji borbi sem videl velike spremembe. Uporabil je veščine, ki se jih je naučil pri Alexu, in veselim se več.”

World-Class Dominican Boxers Payano, Marrero and Vicente Sign Long-Term Agreements with King Kong Boxing Management

Pustite komentar

 

Well-known Florida-based manager/trainer Herman Caicedo proudly announces the signing of three of his world-class Dominican fighters, former WBA Super World Bantamweight Champion and WBA #2, WBC #11 contender Juan Carlos Payano, WBA #3 featherweight Claudio “The Matrix” Marrero, and well-respected featherweight contender Yenifel “The Lightning” Vicente, to multi-year managerial agreements with Jay Jimenez of King Kong Boxing Management.
The deal frees Caicedo, who formerly held both duties with the three fighters since their amateur days, to focus solely on training, while Jimenez takes the reins over furthering their careers in the professional boxing business.
32-year-old southpaw Payano (18-1, 9 Kos) won the WBA strap in September 2014 by stopping long-time world champion Anselmo Moreno. He then defeated and lost a rematch to Ohio’s Rau’shee Warren. He was last seen scoring a TKO 7 over Isao Gonzalo Carranza in January of this year.
“King Kong Boxing exploded on the scene with (former interim WBA Heavyweight Champion) Luis Ortiz and has fast-tracked the careers of several Cuban fighters,” Said Payano. “I am very happy to be working with Jay Jimenez. And my trainer Herman has always been very honest with us and protected us from the sharks in boxing. Through his philosophy of hard work and dedication, I became a world champion. I am happy he will now be able to concentrate on training, which he is the best in the world at.”
Marrero (21-1, 15 Kos) will face Peru’s Carlos Zambrano for his interim WBA World Championship, as well as the IBO World Championship, na Februar 24 in Palm Springs, California.
“Joining the King Kong team is great, but as we see it, we have been part of this team for some time,” said Marrero. “Jay has always helped us with anything we needed. It’s just official now. King Kong Boxing Management is looking to bring more superstar elite fighters to boxing’s forefront, through aggressive marketing and strategic alliances with top promoters in the business.”
Vicente (30-3-2, 22 Kos) is one of the world’s most exciting fighters. Currently riding a five-fight winning streak, the power-punching 30-year-old is a television favorite for his all-action fighting style.
“Herman has done a great job with my training and my career,” dejal Vicente. “He has worked very hard for me and all his fighters. Now he will get some expert help from King Kong Boxing Management. I am looking forward to a very bright future working with these two great men.”

Payano, Marrero and Yenifel Vicente are superstar, elite-level fighters,” said Jimenez. “Payano is a former champion, Marrero a soon to be champion and Vicente on a fast track to becoming a champion as well. This is exactly what King Kong Boxing is interested in signing: the very best. I have no doubt that Payano will once again become champion this year. Working with Herman is easy and inspiring. He brings the same approach to his training that I do to management. He is professional, smart, and a no-nonsense worker.”

“I am very sad and ecstatic at the same time,” said Caicedo. “I have been a trainer/ manager for over 23 years and believe that the only way to develop a champion is to avoid the distractions in boxing, such as when some managers change coaches like they change underwear. Na žalost, most of the time fighters don’t have a say due to financial restraints or influence the manager might have. I did away with that as much as possible by doing most of the managing myself. King Kong Boxing is, daleč, the best management team in the business. These three fighters are special to me because we debuted as pros and became champions together. But I have zero doubt I made the right decision for the guys’ career and future. I want to thank Jay from King Kong Boxing for the trusting in me to work with his fighters over the past few years and for having the vision in the signing of his newest additions.”
