Als Amateurboxer, er hat a zusammengestellt 94-3 Rekord, durch eine Goldmedaille Performance bei den hervorgehobenen 1963 Nationales Golden Gloves Turnier als Bantamgewicht, aber er entschied sich dagegen, es für das US Olympic Boxing Team auszuprobieren.

Stellen Sie nur sicher, dass Sie nicht auf Menschen mit schlechten Absichten hören, weil Sie natürliches Talent haben.’ Er glaubte an mich, auch wenn einige Leute nicht glaubten, dass ich jemals Weltmeister werden würde.”

 

 

 

“Emanuel Steward hat das Leben so vieler Menschen beeinflusst, die durch die Türen des Kronk Gym gingen,” sagte, Chris Cugliari, Exekutivdirektor der USA Boxing Alumni Association. “Während er für seine Leistung auf professioneller Ebene am meisten anerkannt ist, Sein Einfluss war bei den Amateuren signifikant. Manny dient heute als Model Coach für USA Boxing, und seine Wirkung wird noch lange spürbar sein.

HEAVYWEIGHT UPSET BREWING IN DETROIT?

Gormley Confident that Undefeated Ruiz Will Taste Defeat at ‘Detroit Brawl’ auf Samstag, Juli 16

, im Freimaurertempel

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 “Gegner” 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 AndyThe Destroyer from Mexicali” Ruiz (27-0, 18 KOs) in einem Nicht-Titelkampf an diesem Samstag in Detroit. The two bruising heavyweights will meet in the 10-round main event of Salita Promotionslatest “Detroit Brawl” event at the Masonic Temple.
Sponsored by Thomas Magee’s Sporting House Whiskey Bar, Tickets für “Detroit Brawl” wird bei VIP festgesetzt $123, Box Sitze $100, Ringside $93, Reserviert $63 und $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.
“Er ist perfekt für mich,” 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, Profi wurde in 1992 and flirted with world-contender status before suffering a pair of tough losses and retiring in 1999. Jedoch, Boxen, like any addiction, eventually lured him back.
I just want to take opportunities and see what I can do,” sagte er. “Gewinnen oder verlieren, 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. Jetzt, 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.
Auch, Serdar Hudayberdiyev (2-0, 2 KOs) of Turkmenabat, Turkmenistan, will face fellow undefeated fighter Steven Andrade (3-0, 2 KOs) von Atlanta, Georgia in a welterweight four-rounder.
The opponent for the long-awaited pro debut of Dearborn, Michigan’sSouthpaw PrinceGheith Karim, a three-time national amateur champion, will be two-fight welterweight scrapper Dean Walsh Jr. von Monroe, Michigan.

VERONA, N.Y.. (April 15, 2016) – Undefeated bantamweight prospects Nikolay Potapov und Stephon Junge fought to a majority draw in theShoBox: Die neue Generation Hauptereignis Freitag on SHOWTIME from Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, N.Y..

 

Der Kampf wurde gewertet 96-94 Potapov and 95-95 zweimal.

 

Potapov and Young were facing their toughest opponents in each other. Potapov (14-0-1, 6 KOs) controlled the pace early with his jab and was the more active fighter, throwing nearly double the punches that Young threw. Young picked up steam and gained confidence in the middle rounds and was at his best when he pressed the action and let his hands go. But the Russian Potapov, who had gone at least 10 rounds in his last six fights, was clearly more comfortable as the fight progressed.

 

After slowing in the seventh and eighth, Jung (14-0-3, 6 KOs) found another gear in an impressive ninth, winning the penultimate round on all the judges’ scorecards. Aber, even after urgent instructions from his corner, Young couldn’t carry the momentum into the 10th and lost the final round on all three scorecards.

 

“I am very unhappy with the decision. For every time he hit me, I hit him twice,Sagte Potapov, wer warf 315 jabs compared to just 113 for Young. “I was the much busier fighter. Ich weiß nicht, welchen Kampf die Richter beobachtet haben. At the very most I lost four rounds.

 

“I’ve never had a draw before. I feel cheated from a win. I was very happy to be fighting in America but I now feel cheated.”

 

Nach dem Kampf, St. Louis native Young was disappointed but knew that he needed to throw more punches.

 

“I feel like it was a good fight, but I should have got the decision,” Young said. “I hurt him every time I hit him. I let him be busier than me, but as far as the contact, I feel like I landed the more effective punches. That was my strategy.

 

“I should have come on a bit sooner. That was my plan, but I got a little relaxed in the fight. I came on in the ninth round when my coach told me to get him out of there.

 

“I most definitely want a rematch. I would like to do that again.”

Facing his toughest opponent to date, Menard floored (31-1, 23 KOs) Bernardo for the first time in his career with a series of rights near the end of the second round. The Dominican Bernardo beat the count and finished the round, but he had no answer for Menard’s power. Less than one minute into third, Menard connected with a huge right, knocking Bernardo (21-1, 15 KOs) out before he even hit the canvas.

 

“I made a statement heute Abend. Not many people knew who I was going into this, but they know me now,” said Menard, who landed nearly 50 Prozent seiner Macht Schüsse. “My speed, power and footwork were the difference.

 

“I said a prayer for him in the middle of the ring that he goes back to his family healthy.”

 

Bernardo, who was removed from the ring on a stretcher as a precautionary measure, was taken to nearby Oneida Healthcare where he was awake and responsive.

 

In der Eröffnungsrede Kampf der Sendung, undefeated cruiserweightConstantin Bejenaru handed Alexey Zubov the first loss of his career in a convincing eight-round unanimous decision scored 77-74, 78-73 zweimal.

 

Save for a flash seventh round knockdown, Bejenaru (11-0, 4 KOs) kontrollierte den Kampf von Anfang an. The Moldova native overcame a four-inch height disadvantage, attacking from different angles and controlling the exchanges on the inside and outside. Zähne (10-1, 6 KOs) never got into rhythm and failed to capitalize on his reach advantage against the active and athletic southpaw.

 

“He was a good classical boxer, but he’s too straight up and he couldn’t adjust,” Bejenaru said. “It wasn’t as easy as it looked to beat him. I adjusted my style to do that because I knew it would make him hesitate. I knew if I just constantly attacked him he wouldn’t know what to do.”

 

Zubov and Bernardo are now the 146th und 147th boxers to suffer their first pro loss on the prospect developmental series.

I’ve been in Detroit for the last two months and I am so happy; I want to stay here, train here and live here,” sagte Zubov. “Every Russian fighter knows about Kronk Gym and Emanuel Steward.
Zubov is currently winding down camp with his trainer and Steward’s nephew Javan “Zucker” Hill at the resurgent Kronk Gym. “I like Javan’s style,” sagte Zubov, “and I’ve learned so much about hand speed and footwork and about using intelligence in the ringhow you need to think when you’re in a fight.
Alexey is able to learn a lot and absorb boxing knowledge easily,” Said Hill. “He barely speaks English and yet he soaks it in. Es ist wunderbar. I brought him in to spar with Banks and when we were training, Alexey just sat on the side and watched. Später, he was sparring with Johnathon and I told him to stop. I said ‘listen here. I’m training Jonathon Banks and you’re doing everything I told him to do. What’s wrong with you?’ Then I laughed and said ‘I like that. Keep watching. I’ll teach you everything you want to know.’ “
Hill says this camp with Zubov was a transition for the fighter. “We are moving into the championship level where you train for a specific fighter. A lot of it is strategy and planning. The only thing I worry about is him being too excited. He’s very high-strung and wants to prove things. I have to control him and keep him from getting over-excited. That’s what we’ve been working on. He gets antsy when he’s excited.
Training was prefect. Bin ich 100 Prozent bereit,” sagte Zubov. “I know Bejenaru is a southpaw and he is a short guy with a good record. It’s my first time on SHOWTIME and I am so happy to be showing the world what I can do.
