Perfect connection Gilberto“Zurdo” Ramirez & Trainer Julian Chua

Оставете коментар

LAS VEGAS (Май 25, 2021) – Back in February of 2019, World Boxing Организация (WBO) Super Middleweight ChampionGilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez had made a decision to move up to fight in the light heavyweight division, and he was searching for a new head trainer.

Ramirez (41-0, 27 Нокаута) immediately connected with a then 28-year-oldJulian Chua, a former amateur boxer who had been training boxers atФреди Роуч’s famed Wildcard Boxing Club in Hollywood, California. “Zurdo” and Chua are now 2-0 (2 Нокаута) and preparing for a mega-fought later this year, ideally, against undefeated World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Light Heavyweight ChampionДмитрий Биволъ (17-0, 11 Нокаута).

How Ramirez ended up with Chua as he head trainer isn’t a typical boxing story. After all, “Zurdo” was the first Mexican world super middleweight champion, спортни а 29-0 про рекорд, and only 27 when they first met.

Ramirez’ manager, David Suh, conducted a search to hire Ramirez’ chief second. He had a list that included some of the top trainers in the industry, as well as a young, relatively unknown – at least outside of southern California – in Chua.

“I don’t know how I got on that list,” a humble Chua said. “There was going to be a tryout of sorts to determine who would work with ‘Zurdo.’ We trained together in Long Beach (where Ramirez was training) and then I met with David for coffee. He asked if I was interested in becoming the head trainer. We trained together a little more. He liked the way I trained, and we got along well. I texted David saying we liked working together and that I was interested in becoming his head trainer.

“We clicked right away, and we learned things about each other and how we liked to train. I study a lot and do a lot of research of how he had been trained, because I wanted to help him to improve. I was getting four fighters ready in LA and “Zurdo” couldn’t go there for sparring. I said I couldn’t leave these fighters and go to Santa Barbara. “Zurdo” respected me even more for not jumping ship from those four fighters for a better opportunity. We still wanted to work with each other, and ‘Zurdo’ made it work. I went to Long Beach twice a week, he came to Wildcard three times.”

Ramirez won his light heavyweight debut April 12, 2019, когатоTommy Karpency (29-6-1) не можеше да продължи след четири кръга, followed last December 18тата с 10тата round stoppage ofАлфонсо Лопес (32-3) to capture the North American Boxing Federation (NABF) заглавие.

Chua was trained by Roach when he was an amateur from Indiana, but when Chua started at Wildcard, Roach’s assistantЕрик Браун became Chua’s mentor. During his training career atWildcard West Boxing, known now as Churchill Boxing in Santa Barbara, Chua has trained several world champions in boxing and MMA.

The 29-year-old Ramirez, who recently signed an exclusive promotional contract withOscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions, в момента е класиран №. 3 by the WBA and WBO. “Zurdo” returns to action July 9тата in Los Angeles againstSullivan Барера (22-3, 14 Нокаута).

Whether it’s Bivol, or the other world light heavyweight champions — Артур Бетербиев иДжо Смит – “Zurdo” and Chua are preparing to beat the best for Ramirez to wear the coveted World championship crown in a second division.

КОРОНА, Халиф. (Ноември. 4, 2016) - Тарес „Истинската сделка Шелестюк поддържаше непобеден рекорд и продължи изкачването си в полусредна категория със затваряне, единодушно 10-рундово решение за най-твърдия му опонент до момента, Джими „Истината“ Херера в Петък основно събитие на a ShoBox: Новото поколение tripleheader живеят на SHOWTIME от открито Омега продукти Център за събития в Corona, Халиф.

 

Shelestyuk (15-0, 9 Нокаута), на 2012 Бронзов медалист от Олимпийски игри за Украйна, беше победител по десетките 96-93 и два пъти 95-94. Въпреки гъвкавост, песъчинки, Herrera (15-4-1, 8 Нокаута), Чикаго, Ill., имаха три победи в серия от победи. Не е имало нокдауна.

 

В грубо и сутарно, кървав сблъсък на непобедени крейсерски тежести в съвместната игра, играч левак Константин Беженару (12-0, 4 Нокаута, 0-1-1 в Световните серии по бокс), на Catskill, N.Y.. по пътя на Молдова, оцеля при нокдаун и няколко неволни приклада на главата, за да регистрира единодушно решение от 10 рунда Стив Буджадж (16-1-1, 11 Нокаута), Ню Йорк.

 

Местен фен от нас Мануел "Бурята" Мендес (13-1-2, 9 Нокаута), на Индио, Калифорния., регистрира впечатляващ еднократен удар, 2:32 нокаут от първи рунд над непобеден преди Витор Джоунс Фрейтас (12-1, 1 ND, 6 Нокаута), на Салвадор, Bahia, Бразилия, в насрочен двубой от осем кръга, който отвори телевизионното предаване.

 

Южна лапа Шелестюк, който влезе на ринга класиран No. 9 в WBO и №. 13 в WBA, върна решителната оферта на Herrera за победа, въпреки че получи точка за прекомерно задържане в петия рунд.

 

"Беше тежка битка,’’ Шелестюк. “He is a tough fighter, he is slow but he worked well. В първия кръг, Справих се добре, но краката ми продължиха върху мен. Мисля, че беше, защото не спах добре.

 

“After five rounds I started to find my rhythm. Започнах да го боксирам. Направих някои грешки там като дърпане право назад. Тази битка ще ме направи по-добре. Както казах, той беше жилав, но нищо особено. Когато краката ми отидоха, Започнах да работя вътре. Победих го добре в последния кръг и ако имаше 30 секунди повече, Можех да го спра.

 

“I am looking forward to being more active in 2017. I will take two or three weeks off and be right back in the gym.’’

 

“The Truth” hurts and Herrera had more than his fair share of moments in a tight fight. Herrera, професионалист от декември 2009, figured to be a legitimate test for Shelestyuk and he was. Но Тарас беше по-активен (приземяване 169 на 689 щанци, в сравнение с Herrera’s 130 на 460). Each connected 28 процента от времето.

 

Herrera, who had defeated undefeated prospects in four of previous nine fights, не беше доволен от присъдата. „Беше добра битка. Не мога да кажа много. Мислех, че е по-близо от посочените резултати. I had fun in there and I give him credit. Той беше всичко, което очаквах. He is a smart fighter.’’

 

“I would live to be a test dummy for all these young prospects. Мислех, че може да е равен, but the people who saw it on TV can have their opinion.’’

 

Making his second ShoBox начало, Bejenaru triumphed by the scores of 97-91 на резултатите на тримата съдии. Левичарят слезе от чиста, контрира лявата кука към брадичката в петата и се влошава от неволните дупета на главата, но изглежда пресича и преодолява неохотния Буджай през по-голямата част от пътя.

 

Кратък крайцер с неудобно, херкизиран стил Bejenaru натискаше проблема през цялото време и беше много по-активен, хвърляне повече от 100 повече удари от Bujaj (454-336) и осреднено 45 удари, хвърлени на рунд в сравнение с 38 за Буджаж.

 

„Той е мръсен боец,'', Каза Bejenaru след мач, в който той получи лошо порязване на лявото си око и голямо нанасяне на главата. - Вижте всичките му битки, всичко, което прави, е да води с глава. Бях засегнат от дупетата на главата му, но нямаше начин да спра. He complains a lot, but all he did was foul. It felt to me like he bit me on the left ear after… that’s how he fights.

 

“The sport is boxing, not swimming and he flails his punches like a swimmer, a street fighter, not a pro fighter. He caught me with a clean shot on the knockdown but I got right up and wasn’t hurt.

 

“This win is a big step in my career. It will help me continue to rise me up in the rankings on my way to a title shot.’’

 

Буджай, who was making his ShoBox debut, was livid afterward.

 

“Hell, да, I’m mad,"Той каза. “The scoring was bad. I knew what I was getting into by fighting in his backyard, but I definitely thought I won. I knocked him down. He never hurt me.”

 

The aggressive-minded Mendez came out patiently and allowed Freitas to throw the majority of the early punches. Mendez’ first meaningful punch of the fight was a paralyzing left hook to the body that put Freitas down and writhing in pain.

 

“I was surprised he didn’t take that body shot well, said Mendez, is who is trained by Joel Diaz. “I knew I hurt him, but I thought he’d get up. I saw that he wasn’t covering up very well so I knew I was going to land one eventually.”

 

“I was surprisingly nervous going into this fight. I was somewhat timid to start. I usually come out stronger, but it didn’t matter because we got the result that we wanted.”

 

“I’m pumped for the knockout win. I know it didn’t last long, но се надявам телевизионната аудитория да се е насладила”

 

Фрейтас контролираше по-голямата част от рунда с движението си и по-остър удар, но дива кука към тялото — третият му се свързва с тялото — остави бразилеца на платното дълго след 10 броя.

 

“Обърках,’’ Каза сълзливият Джоунс Фрейтас. „Направих пауза в неподходящо време и той ме удари с правилния удар. Това не означава нищо за мен. Ще продължа да работя усилено и да тренирам усилено. Искам реванш.”

Окончателна оферта:

TARAS SHELESTYUK

 

“Herrera is a good fighter, a tough fighter. I know he has defeated some good fighters like Mike Jones, who was a top fighter who’d been off a couple years. But I’m 100 процента готов. I expect a very tough and exciting fight but I expect to be much stronger and smarter.

 

“I’m excited for all the attention this fight and I are getting. I’ve always known that fans in America have known me but maybe now more than before. I think in the next year, I can become even more well-known.

 

“I’ve been working on strength and becoming more powerful. I think my boxing skills are already good, but my speed and power are better than before. I feel in sparring that I’m punching harder.

 

„Обичам да работя с тялото. Харесва ми фактът, че качвате достатъчно от тях рано, те взимат такса късно. Това е едно добро нещо в битката като професионалист. Чувствам се добре в кариерата си; Надявам се в рамките на една година да се бия с някои от най-добрите бойци в дивизията.

 

„Сигурен съм, че Херера вероятно ще се опита да дойде при мен; няма шанс да ме победи в бокса. Харесвам момчета, които излизат напред. Те са добри за мен, защото мога да се противопоставям и да се движа една в друга. И съм готов да се бия отвътре, ако е необходимо.

 

„Знам, че мога да подобря последното си ShoBox борба. Направих го по-близо, отколкото трябваше. Ако го повторихме отново, мисля, че може би ще го спра само заради това, върху което работим във фитнеса.

 

„Спаринг с Шейн Мосли беше огромно за мен. He’s such a great fighter. When I was younger, I’d watch his fights. Now we spar. He’s older but still very good. He knows all the tricks and gives me a lot of advice that helps me in and out of the ring. Everything he’s said to me, I’ve tried to apply.”

 

JIMMY HERRERA:

“I’ve been working a full two months for this fight so I’m ready. This is going to be a very good test for both of us, a great fight. He’s a good European boxer, another unbeaten for me. But I don’t feel like I’m coming in as the underdog at all. He’s got his strengths, I’ve got my strengths.

 

“There has to be a purpose for every punch. Each has to count. If he opens up and makes a mistake, I have to take advantage. Трябва да го извадя от ритъма му рано, принуди го да излезе от зоната му на комфорт и да го накара да се бие с моята битка.

 

„Аз ще бъда агресорът. Но бих се радвал, ако той беше агресорът. Просто мисля, въпреки че, познавайки го, той ще се опита да боксира и да спечели рундовете по този начин. Работя през цялото време напред и това ще направя утре.

 

- Хлапе от Чикаго, като мен, трудно е да се стигне до бокса без връзки, така че накрая, след като се борих толкова дълго без мениджър, Подписах с Камерън Дънкин. Винаги съм знаел, че мога да бъда добър боксьор, но никога не съм предполагал, че ще бъда боксьор. Но вижте ме знам, Аз се бия на SHOWTIME и тази битка не може да се появи в по-добро време. "

 

КОНСТАНТИН БЕЖЕНАРУ:

„Чувствам, че вашата аматьорска кариера ви дава добра основа, като начинаещ, но след като станете професионалист, това е съвсем различна игра. Няма значение кой има повече опит като аматьор. Като професионалисти, всички ние трябва да си вършим работата тук.

 

„Не познавам Буджадж, но видях битката му с Джуниър Райт, така че знам, че е жилав.

 

„Чувствам, че това е голяма стъпка за мен. Той е 16-0, добър боец, който може да удря или боксира, и това е за колан. Това е добра битка и за двама ни.

„Работя усилено за всяка битка и това не беше изключение. Знаем, че трябва да обърнем внимание на детайлите. Това е опасен човек, но съм много уверен.

 

„Определено не очаквам лесна битка. Трябва да натисна действието. Трябва да му направя възможно най-неудобно.

 

“I don’t have a lot of pro knockouts but boxing isn’t just about power. Boxing is intelligence and mental; it’s not just a street fight for me.

 

“This is my second fight on ShoBox. I’m so happy to be back again after that last win over Zubov. The goal is to keep busy, come back early next year and then sometime by next year be ready to fight for a major title of some type.’’

 

STEVE BUJAJ:

 

“I’m looking forward to this fight, my first on network TV, to see where I’m at. Начина по който се чувствам, I’ve got everything to win, everything to lose. This either pushes me to the next level, or I stay where I’m at.

 

“I’m ready for any kind of fight. I’m a versatile fighter and I will have the height advantage.

 

“I feel ready now for the bigger fights, the additional exposure on SHOWTIME, the ratings, the titles, всичко това. But I definitely will be even more after Петък.

 

“I don’t feel this is going 10 кръга. I feel I’ll break him down and eventually stop him. I feel I’ve got the skills and definitely the heart. I’m healthy and ready to go.

 

“I saw his last fight on ShoBox, and thought it was pretty decent. He’s pretty short for a cruiserweight. Although we’re both from New York, I’d never heard of him before.

 

“Camp went awesome with lots of sparring. In Las Vegas. I trained with Mayweather fighters like Ronald Gavril, Badou Jack and Caleb Plant. It’s been four years since I’ve fought a left-hander but I do not consider it factor.’’

 

VITOR JONES FREITAS:

“I thank God and both my uncles for helping me get to where I am, for teaching me and for guiding me in every step of my life and in boxing. Without their influence and what they’ve done for me since I was 11, I feel I’d be dead today.

 

“I’m very excited about this fight and the opportunity to fight better guys. This for me is all about taking advantage of the opportunity.

 

“I’m getting more and more experience. My goal is to work hard and, like my Uncle Acelino, make good fights and become a world champion“

 

“We’ve studied Mendez’ fighting style and have a lot of respect for his trainer, Joel Diaz. I know Mendez is very strong and comes forward. I don’t know if he likes it when his opponents attack from the sides but I’m ready to fight him on the sides, head-on and toe-to-toe.”

 

МАНУЕЛ МЕНДЕЗ:

 

“This is my ninth fight with Joel and we know each other very well. Through the bad and good, he’s been there for me.

 

“I’m sure Freitas has confidence in his ability but like any other undefeated fighter he does well until he hits the wall, which is what Joel wants me to make him do. He wants me to punish him, take my time.

 

“I feel have I have natural power, can take a punch and have heart. Hit me as much as you want, but watch out once I connect and turn things around. My goal always is to break them down, starting with the body.

 

“I may not have the pedigree of some of these guys, but I’m learning defense, how to pace myself, staying poised and most importantly, just how to fight. The more experience, the more mature you become.

 

"Утре I just want to be me and listen to Joel in the corner. I wouldn’t want to be standing in from of me. If he wants to stand and bang, да го направим. I guarantee he’s the one going back after the first few moments.”

КОРОНА, Халиф. (Ноември. 2, 2016) — Undefeated ultra-confident cruiserweight Стив “Свръхчовек” Буджай (16-0-1, 11 Нокаута), of Westchester, N.Y., chimes in before his important 10-round bout with fellow unbeaten Константин Беженару (11-0, 3 Нокаута, 0-1-1 in the World Series of Boxing), на Brooklyn, N.Y., in the middle match of a ShoBox: The New Generation tripleheader this Петък, Ноември. 4, from the Omega Products Event Center in Corona, Халиф.
Буджай (подчертан “Boo-ha”), 26, has won four in a row, включително последната си две с нокаут, since boxing a split 10-round draw in a slugfest with then-undefeated three-time Chicago Golden Gloves champion Junior Wright (10-0) през май 2014. A two-time New York Golden Gloves champion, Bujah, who’ll be fighting on ShoBox the first time, is coming off a first-round TKO over previously undefeated Sergio Ramirez (11-0) на Юни 11

Bejenaru (подчертан “bay-zhin-nah-ROO”) is making his second ShoBox start. In his debut last Април 15, the native of Ungheni, Молдова, scored a unanimous eight-round decision over previously unbeaten Alexey Zubov (10-0), бивш руски аматьорски шампион и седемкратен европейски аматьорски шампион. Southpaw Bejenaru boxed on the Romanian national team for 10 години и беше деветкратен национален шампион.

Here is What Bujaj said:

What do you know about Bejenaru and what are your thoughts going in?

“I know he’s undefeated, 11-0 and a lefty, но не вярвам той да е на моето ниво. Мисля, че съм боец ​​от различен клас и ще мога да го покажа в петък.”

Каква битка очаквате?

“Всъщност нямам никакви очаквания. Когато вляза там, Правя си корекции, и тогава започвам да го разбивам.”

Кой е ключът към победата? Какви са вашите предимства?

“Най-доброто ми предимство е моят опит. Бил съм се 10 кръга преди. Това е първият му път. Вярвам, че съм по-сръчен от него, и вярвам, че имам повече сърце и просто мисля, че имам предимство наоколо.”

За борба на ShoBox за първи път?

“Много съм развълнуван и благодарен за възможността, която ми беше предоставена. Готов съм да изляза и да изпълня и да покажа на света за какво съм — and that is being one of the top guys in the cruiserweight division.”

Your opinion on the cruiserweight division?

“The cruiserweight division is a good division with a lot of good fighters. I feel like it will get more exposure in the future because there are so many talented fighters and good fights that can happen. I’m looking forward to being a part some of the big fights and making some noise.”

What would a win on ShoBox mean to you?

“A win on SHOWTIME would be really huge, but mostly it would keep me going.”

Are they making a mistake fighting you?

“I don’t think he made a mistake, but I refuse to lose this fight. I’m gonna give it my all. He’s not on my level and I’m gonna prove it. I’m gonna fight my ass off.”

On his slugfest with former world title challenger Wright?
“I was winning the fight but I broke my jaw in the fourth round. I had a bad mouthpiece, a cheap one. I never knew mouthpieces needed to be fitted. The surgeon told me if I’d had a pro mouthpiece, I wouldn’t have had a problem.
“I still believe anybody else would have quit in that fight. I was in a lot of pain, I couldn’t close my mouth because the jaw was broke, I was spitting out blood. But I hung in there despite the jaw.

“I had him out on his feet in the last half-minute or so but the referee stopped the fight to give him time to tape up one of the laces on his glove. That gave him time to recover. If the ref hadn’t stopped it when he did, I feel I would have knocked him out.”

On his career?

“I had to work hard for my career. I don’t have a padded record. I do not have it as easy as most in their career. I don’t have a big-time promoter, and I’m not pampered. I’ve fought tough guys throughout my career but I’ve learned a lot and have no regrets. But I feel it’s time for me to step up. After I win Петък на ShoBox, a lot of doors should start opening up me.”
New Nickname?

“I’ve been known as ‘Superman’my whole career but I’m thinking of changing it to “Steel.” The Wright fight proved a lot of me, and I learned a lot. Аз не се откажат. I’m very tough and strong-minded, made of ‘steel.'”
Bujaj срещу. Bejenaru is scheduled for 10 rounds and will be part of a ShoBox: The New Generation tripleheader live on SHOWTIME at 10:30 p.m. И/PT (забавено на Западния бряг).

Thompson Boxing caught up with the 26-year-old slugger from Indio, Халиф. and got his take on този петък ShoBox fight.

(On your first time fighting in front of a nationally televised audience) ...

“Това е една чудесна възможност. I always push myself to the limits and this fight is no different. I have a fan-friendly style that the SHOWTIME audience is going to love.”

(On paper your fight against Freitas appears evenly matched, but most are giving the upper hand to your opponent) …

“I’ve always been the underdog all my life so this is another shot to prove myself. Freitas has a famous name, but that’s about it. He hasn’t faced anyone that approaches my ability.”

(On what you expect from Freitas) …

“The first few rounds will go a long way in knowing what he has. From watching tape, it seems like he has speed, but the most important thing is gauging his power. I can take a punch so once I feel him connect with something, then I’ll know what he has to offer.”

(On your relationship with Joel Diaz) …

“We have an excellent relationship. He’s incredibly helpful in that I’ve seen a great deal of improvement since I’ve been with him. Everything is better. My conditioning, head movement, търчане; I’ve improved in a lot of areas. He’s a great teacher.”

(How would you describe your style for those that have yet to see you fight?) ...

“I’m a smart boxer that pressures fighters into making mistakes. I have all the tools needed to wear down opponents. You’ll always see me in front of you to the point where you get annoyed and start making mental errors. That’s when I put the hurt on you.”

Chicago Welterweight Looks to Defeat Another Unbeaten Boxer When He Faces Taras Shelestyuk in Main Event Of ShoBox: The Tripleheader New Generation, Този петък, Ноември. 4, Live on SHOWTIME®

Оставете коментар
NEW YORK (Ноември. 1, 2016) – Jimmy “Истината” Herrera is accustomed to entering the ring as an underdog. The Chicago native is experienced in fighting favored prospects and contenders on the road and has had an inordinate success in these types of matchups, having defeated unbeaten prospects in four of his last nine fights.

So don’t expect Herrera (15-3-1, 8 Нокаута) to be in awe of his opponent, former Ukraine amateur standout and rising star, Тарас Shelestyuk (14-0, 9 Нокаута) when they meet this Петък, Ноември. 4, in the 10-round welterweight main event on ShoBox: Новото поколениена живо по SHOWTIME® (10:30 p.m. И/PT, забавено на Западния бряг) при Omega Products Event Center в Корона, Халиф.

5-крак-10, 27-year-old Herrera has won three in a row and is 8-1-1 since dropping a close eight-round decision to Adrian Гранадос през февруари 2012. One of those victories was an upset seventh-round TKO over one-time highly ranked welterweight and world title challenger Микрофон “Автомат” Jones on Aug. 23, 2014.

Herrera is promoted by Hitz Boxing and co-managed by Cameron Dunkin and Mike Cericola.

Here are Herrera’s responses to a recent Q&A:

What are your thoughts going into your ShoBox debut?
“Аз съм винаги за едно предизвикателство, so I’m really excited about this opportunity. I’m definitely ready to compete against another undefeated fighter. I’m coming to show my skills to the world and prove I’m a boxer you have to pay attention to.

“At this point of my career, I want to make a move fast while I’m young. I don’t just want to be a guy with a nice record. I truly believe in my skills and that I can reach the highest level.

“I’ve been getting great help with sparring with the best of the best in Chicago. Сам Colonna, George Hernandez and all the Chicago boxing coaches have been great mentors to me and I am very thankful.”

What do you know about Shelestyuk?
“He was a great amateur fighter and he’s a lefty. That’s pretty much all I need to know. The only thing I can give him is that he has experience, so I’ve got to be careful of that. But it’s nothing new – I’ve seen fighters like that.”

Каква битка очаквате?
“I expect him to be a boxer with movement. I think he’ll try to box me. I’ll be coming forward, being aggressive. След това, we’ll see what his game plan is.”

Кой е ключът към победата?
“It all depends on the pressure I can apply, throwing the right punches at the right time, the accuracy of my punches. Each punch has to have a purpose. I’m definitely more of a pressure guy. I like Gennady Golovkin’s style, Julio Cesar Chavez is my idol. That is the kind of style I try to fight with.”

On fighting on ShoBox for the first time?
“I’m definitely excited because I know a lot of people will be watching. Аз не съм нервна изобщо. The cameras, the bright lights, честно, I don’t care about. My focus is totally on this fight. This is the type of fight that can open a lot of doors for me.”

Is this your biggest fight and do you feel pressure?
“Да, определено, this is my biggest fight — just for all the doors a win would open for me, all the possibilities. Няма никакъв натиск върху мен. He’s the one representing his country with the weight on his shoulders. I’ve lost before, but that doesn’t make me an opponent.”

Are they making a mistake fighting you??
“I feel like they are making a mistake, but I also feel this is going to be a good test for him. I think Taras took the fight more for himself. But if he doesn’t know now about me, he’s going to find out.”

You boxed amateurs for one year and had 25 краища. Той беше 2012 Olympic Bronze Medalist with a boatload of amateur accomplishments. How significant is the experience of fighting amateur?
“Лично, за мен, the amateurs are not that important at all. It’s all irrelevant once you go pro. I know some great amateur boxers who made it after turning pro, and some who didn’t. It’s a whole different ballgame. As a pro, I believe I’ve fought better guys than he has. I’ve been tested way more than he has. You can’t take away what he did as an amateur, but fighting with the smaller gloves, with no headgear, is totally different.”

Undefeated cruiserweights Константин Беженару (11-0, 4 Нокаута, 0-1-1 в Световните серии по бокс), на Catskill, N.Y.. по пътя на Молдова, и Стив “Свръхчовек” Буджай (16-0-1, 11 Нокаута), Ню Йорк, will collide in a 10-rounder for the vacant WBC International WBC Continental Americas titles in the co-feature.

Племенникът на популярния бивш двукратен световен шампион в лека категория Acelino “Приклад” Freitas, непобеден лек Витор Джоунс Фрейтас (12-0, 1 ND, 6 Нокаута), на Салвадор, Bahia, Бразилия, ще се противопостави на любимия на местните фенове Мануел Мендес (12-1-2, 8 Нокаута), на Индио, Калифорния., in an eight-round bout in the opening match of the telecast.

NEW YORK (Октомври. 31, 2016) – Promising unbeaten 2012 Olympic Games бронзов медалист Тарас "Real Deal" Shelestyuk (14-0, 9 Нокаута) will make his main event debut when he faces upset-minded Джими Херера in the 10-round featured attraction of a ShoBox: Новото поколение tripleheader this Fridaи, Ноември. 4, на живо по SHOWTIME при 10:30 p.m. И/PT (забавено на Западния бряг) от Омега продукти Международен център за събития в Corona, Халиф.

 

A 5-foot-10 up-and-coming rising star, Shelestyuk, на Los Angeles, е класиран №. 9 от WBO и не по-. 13 в WBA. Shelestyuk, who is making his second ShoBox start, осреднено 85 punches a round en route to winning his ShoBox debut with a 10-round division over Асланбек Козак Ноември. 6, 2015.

 

The dedicated, hard-working Shelestyuk, който е обучен от Ерик Браун and spars a few days a week with former world champion Шейн Мосли, at Wild Card West in Santa Monica, Калифорния., притежава солидни умения, движение и сила на удара.

 

Shelestyuk was a member of a vaunted 2012 Украински олимпийски отбор, който включваше златен медалист в полутежка категория Васил Ломаченко и златен медалист в тежка категория Александър Усик. The 30-year-old feels he’s still about a year away from competing against the best at 147 pounds and that he first must get by Herrera. But Mosley claims Shelestyuk reminds him of a bigger Lomachencko and believes he’s already ready for the top names in the welterweight division.

 

Herrera (15-3-1, 8 Нокаута), Чикаго, Ill., е победил непобедени перспективи в четири от последните девет битки и е 8-1-1 като цяло от юли 2012.

 

Shelestyuk, Brown and Mosley spoke to SHOWTIME after a recent workout. Here’s what they said:

 

TARAS SHELESTYUK:

What are your thoughts going into the fight?
“I’m very excited. It’s been six months since my last fight. It’s my first headline fight and hopefully not my last one.

 

“I’ve been putting in a lot of work in my training camp with my trainer Eric Brown, and with my physical conditioning coach. My opponent is a tough fighter. He’s had some good fights with guys like Mike Jones, Egidijus Kavaliauskas and a couple of other big guys. He likes to fight and I think it will be a good fight and a good matchup for our styles.”

 

You’re now a ranked fighter; are you happy with the pace of your progression?

“I’m happy with my progression but of course I want to fight bigger names in championship fights and all of that. I know it’s coming soon. I enjoy my way of training and developing my skills, but if you see your dream you do anything to reach it and don’t let anything get in your way.’’

 

What do you think of the welterweight division?

“It’s a very good division because there are a lot of fighters, but some don’t want to fight each other (very often). There are some very good championship fights to be made and hopefully I will be one of them.”

 

Why did you chose to move to Southern California?

“Well, [смее] mainly because if the great weather, but this is also a good area with a lot of good fighters and a lot of good trainers as well. When I first moved here my manager invited me out and showed me around and I got in the gym right away. I was training with Ruslan Provodnikov and got some sparring in with him before a fight that he had and next thing you know, two weeks later I had my pro debut and now three-and-a-half years later here I am.’’

 

Is there pressure on you when you fight?

“I wouldn’t say I feel pressure because everyone around me is supporting me, they believe in me and I believe in them. My team believes in me and I trust them. I just want to do what I do in the ring, По-добре. I want to do better for me, for my family and for my friends.’’

 

Do you follow your Olympic teammates?

“I watch fights of the Ukrainian Olympic Team, and I enjoy when the other guys win. We support each other and we call each other. It is good for there to be more Ukraine fighters who are champions now. Следващата година, I hope to be one of them.”

 

How did it feel going 10 Кръгове за първи път?

“Last year in November I had my first 10-round fight on ShoBox, I fought with a strong guy and he gave me a very good fight. I went the 10 rounds and I felt like I could still go two more. I am ready for 10, за 12, няма значение. I feel much better, much more powerful. I have more speed than I had in my last fight, също. "

 

How did you end up training with Eric?

“I trained with Freddie Roach for about two and a half years when I met Eric at Wild Card West Gym. I started sparring with some of his guys there. After my fight with Rodriguez on ESPN in 2015 I asked Eric to train me and we started working. Now that I’ve fought two fights with him as my trainer, I feel my boxing skills are better, I feel more powerful and I enjoy training in his gym.

 

“All of the trainers help us and they give us advice. On the days I spar with Shane Mosley he stops and gives me some advice. I learn a lot from him, being the fighting legend that he is. I grew up watching him fight as a kid and respect what he’s able to teach me. Then the next time I try what he has taught me and it works.”

 

Boxing is in your blood; your dad and brother boxed. When you were younger, did you think you were going to become a fighter?

"Не, but my father pushed me in a lot of sports. I did gymnastics, soccer for five years, and played chess. I fought as a kid but it was always friendly. I always enjoyed the training aspect. To train for soccer sometimes my father and I would run barefoot in the snow and I enjoyed it. Така, as a kid, when I first stepped into the boxing gym, it was just so much fun.’’

Your ShoBox fight falls on your father’s birthday; do you have a special present in mind for him?

“It makes me want to get the victory for him. On his day, he will be sitting and watching my fight so I want to get that victory for him, for my family and for the Ukraine.’’

 

ERIC BROWN, Shelestyuk’s trainer

What kind of camp has Taras had has had and what do you see happening в петък?

“I see a lot of progression in Taras. When we first started working together, one of the things was that Taras always had great boxing ability, but he wasn’t a great finisher. I don’t know if he was gun shy or what it was but he had a tendency of using his talent to get people in trouble but then he would stand back and let them get back in the fight. Така, what we’ve been working on a lot more is getting him to become a better finisher and recognize when he has his man in trouble and how to seize the moment, without being reckless at the same time. He’s improving at a fast pace.

 

“A lot of guys from Ukraine seem to have similar tendencies because they have long amateur careers and they start picking up bad habits that we need to correct. Taras had a little bit of that in him but he seems to be making the adjustments very well. He’s an extremely hard worker and you often have to tell him to slow down, you never have to tell him to do more.”

 

Where do you see him in his career as a welterweight?

“It’s a great division. I’d say that Keith Thurman tops it without a doubt now but there are good fighters like Shawn Porter too. If Mayweather decided to come back, I think he would be all over this division again. Canelo is a good super welterweight, but he’s too busy worrying about catch-weights. Undoubtedly in another year, I think Taras will be right there with the best of them. He’s got a lot of talent, great versatility, great hand speed and foot speed and he’s a good puncher. Not a devastating knockout puncher but a great puncher nonetheless with both hands.’’

 

SHANE MOSLEY, Бившият световен шампион

How has it been working with Taras and how did you become involved in his training?

“I have been sparring with Taras and he’s looking really sharp. I’ve been sparring with him for about four or five months now pretty consistently because a lot of guys won’t spar with him. Guys are worried that he will make them look bad; he’s so technical and sharp that they don’t want to spar with him. Така, I go in there with him a lot. It’s hard to get people to spar with him.’’

 

Where do you see him in the welterweight division?

“He’s on that championship path, that level, but I think once he gets there, he’ll get more sparring partners and will get even better. He really is a world champion, a world-class fighter. He reminds me of a bigger Lomachenko, sparring with him is just like that. I see him as a top welterweight champion. The way he throws his combinations, he’s a smart boxer who works out very hard. He’s at the gym every single day, whether he’s sparring or not, whether he has some training to do or not. He’ll even be here by himself just moving around and staying sharp. His work ethic is really, много силна.

 

How do you like working with Taras?

“I like Taras and I enjoy working with him. He’s extremely dedicated and that’s hard to find. I like Taras’ work ethic, his personality, how he takes to boxing. He loves this sport and he wants to be the best. He doesn’t like to lose, even in sparring. I’m impressed with him. When I sparred with him for the first time I was very impressed at his swing, his power, his ring accuracy, his IQ of boxing. I was impressed with how hard he worked and his willingness to learn.’’

 

Do you find it unusual for guys to be as dedicated as Taras at this point in their careers?

“It’s unusual in the sense that a lot of fighters want to learn from the top guys but it seems to me with Taras that it’s not fake. He truly does want to learn about boxing so that he can be the best. He wants to become a world champion and is working to become one of the best. If you put Taras in the ring with any big name today and I’d say he would take the victory. He has a sound mind. He has the mentality to be at the top. He’s serious about being the world champion, about being the top fighter. He’s serious about winning and he’s going to take it all the way to the end. If you put this guy against Thurman, I’d go with him. I think he beats Thurman right now.’’
