LONG BEACH, Calif. (Juli 30, 2017) – Undefeated fjerlette udsigten Tramaine “The Mighty Midget” Williams made a major statement last night (Lørdag, Juli 29), dropping former world title challenger WilliamChirizo” Gonzalez three times in the opening round of a sensational performance in the “KO Night Boksning” Rumble on the Water 2″ main event, which aired live on CBS Sports Network from The Queen Mary’s outdoor venue in Long Beach, California.

“KO Night Boksning: Rumble on the Water 2was presented by Black Tree, and promoted by Roy Englebrecht Promotions, in association with KO Night Boxing LLC and Roc Nation Sports.
…..and the end for William Gonzalez
The 5′ 4″ Williams (12-0, 5 KOS), fighting out of New Haven (CT), exploded with pin-point accuracy, also displaying his new-found power, dropping Gonzalez 30-8, 26 KOS), of Nicaragua, three time in the first round. The crafty southpaw finished off his more experienced opponent with a perfectly placed right-left combination, right on the button, for his third and final knockdown. Referee Raul Caiz, Jr. waved off the action, not bothering to count, as Gonzalez lay vertical on his back in dire straits.
I prepared well for this fight and anything can happen when I work hard,” Williams remarked after his third consecutive knockout victory. “I felt his power early with a body shot but I stayed focused.
I can deal with anybody in my division. I want to fight Lee Selby (IBF featherweight world champion), or any of the world champions, but none will fight me. I really want Gary Russell (WBC champion); Jeg er her, Gary. It’ll be target practice for me.
I co-feature, highly touted super middleweight prospect JuniorThe Young GodYounan (13-0, 9 KOS) forblev ubesejret, winning a close eight-round decision against tough Mike “The Menace” Guy, af Sacramento (F.EKS), the former California State champion. (9-3-1, 5 KOS) Guy was penalized a point for tossing Younan to the mat at the end of round six or the result would have been a majority draw.
In his first eight-round fight, the 21-year-old Younan gained invaluable experience fighting the non-stop Guy, who kept coming forward, throwing punches from all angles, at his Brooklyn opponent.

Junior Younan (R) had a learning experience in victory against Mike Guy
You can’t learn if you don’t go rounds,” Younan correctly noted after the fight. “I’m only going to improve. Guy kept moving forward the entire fight. There were a couple of things that bothered me, but I went eight hard rounds and won. Thank you to Mike Guy for that.
Former Winthrop College (SC) basketballspiller Jonnie Rice (7-2-1, 4 KOS), fighting out of Los Angeles, opened the televised broadcast with a convincing six-round unanimous decision over RodneyKing Corso” Hernandez (10-6-2, 2 KOS), af Fresno (F.EKS).
I thought I did real well against a good opponent,” former power forward Rice said after the fightHe’s an athlete, getting better each fight. He’s not the same fighter he was a year ago. I’m becoming more strategic, working on my jab to get better. Basketball players need good footwork like Chris Paul and Lebron James. I’m working to bring my footwork from basketball to boxing,”
Hometown favorit Raul Calderon (1-0) pitched a shutout over Eric Gomez (0-1), winning a four-round unanimous decision (40-36 X 3), in a battle of pro-debuting Californians. In the walkout-fight, Los Angeles featherweight Sergio “El NinoQuiroz forbedret til 4-0 with a four-round unanimous decision over Lupe Arrotyo (2-7).

Fighting under the Roc Nation banner, Younan was a highly-decorated amateur boxer, compiling an outstanding 90-5 rekord. Given his success, Younan elected to turn pro in 2013 as an 18-year-old, rather than wait several years for an opportunity to qualify for the U.S. Olympic Boxing Team.
Younan started boxing competitively as an eight-year-old and, kun two years later, The New York Times crowned him aboxing prodigy”. During his impressive amateur career, he collected several belts, medals and awards, including nine championship performances in the Junior Olympics as well as the Junior Metros, eight in the New York State Silver Gloves, and five more in the Regional Silver Gloves.

I 2011, he was crowned the National Junior Golden Gloves champion, in addition to being USA Boxing’s No. 1-rated junior boxer in his weight class.

Nagging injuries somewhat curtailed Younan’s development, limiting him to one fight in 2015. After a nine-month layoff, he returned triumphantly on March 26, 2016 to defeat Cristian Solorzano, af Sonora, Mexico, on the Andre Ward vs. Sullivan Barrera undercard at Oracle Arena in Oakland, California. With a win by way of a four-round unanimous decision, Younan improved his unblemished record to 8-0.

It was an amazing experience for me as a 21-year-old to fight in Vegas on Andre Ward’s card,” Younan added. “Coming off that knockout, I have great momentum and confidence heading into this fight. I can’t wait.

LAS VEGAS (Jan. 17) – Golden Boy Promotions langs med Eye of the Tiger Managementafholdt et intimt rundbord ved MGM Grand i Las Vegas, for at diskutere den nylige underskrift af David Lemieux (33-2, 31 KOS) til Golden Boy-kampagner. Den imponerende kandidat til mellemvægt Lemieux, Grundlægger og præsident for Golden Boy Promotions Oscar De La Hoya, Fremtidige Hall of Famer og Golden Boy Promotions Partner Bernard Hopkins, Præsident for Eye of the Tiger Management Camille Estephan, og Senior Vice President for Golden Boy Promotions Eric Gomez var alle til stede.

 

Den hårdtslående Montreal-indfødtes næste kamp blev bekræftet for at blive sendt på HBO, og Lemieux udtrykte sin interesse i at kæmpe de bedste i mellemvægtsafdelingen. Nedenfor er hvad Montreal-indfødte, hans promotorer og hans ledelse måtte sige:

 

DAVID LEMIEUX, Mellemvægt Contender

 

“Jeg har lagt i arbejdet. Hvad du så i Brooklyn var kun 50 procent af hvad jeg kan gøre, og jeg har lyst til at være meget bedre. Det vil jeg vise i min næste kamp.

 

“Jeg frygter ingen mand, Jeg vil gå efter toppen af ​​fødekæden. Oscar og Bernard kom op og kæmpede bedst, og jeg er af samme sind.

 

“Canelo er yngre, sultnere fighter. Han er eksplosiv. Han er en hård kæmper, og det ville være en god match op.

 

“Alle er på listen. Jeg ønsker at bekæmpe den bedste.

 

“Årsagen til, at jeg startede så ung, var fordi jeg var problemfri. Jeg kæmpede på gaden. Min nabo var en bokser, og han bad mig om at komme og kæmpe mod rigtige krigere. Jeg fik sparket et par gange, men jeg blev forelsket i det.

 

“Vi vil løbe godt 160 og tænk derefter på at gå op i vægt.

 

“Jeg har altid ønsket power punchers, og jeg respekterer andre’ stilarter og andre mestre, men jeg efterligner dem aldrig.”

 

OSCAR DE LA HOYA, Grundlægger og præsident for Golden Boy Promotions

 

“Vi undersøger enhver mulighed. Vi kan tage til Montreal, vi kan gå tilbage til New York City, vi kan komme til Las Vegas; det er Davids skønhed. Han kan kæmpe hvor som helst, og folk vil komme ud for at se ham.

 

“Han vokser stadig. Vi har ikke set hans fulde potentiale, hvilket er meget spændende. Han har eksplosivitet og magt.

 

“Vi vil arbejde hånd og hånd med Eye of the Tiger Management. Vi er partnere, og vi vil have de bedste kampe, de bedste tilbud. Vi vil arbejde sammen i David's bedste interesse.

 

“En fremtidig kamp med Canelo er mulig. Canelo vil kæmpe bedst. Lemieux vil kæmpe bedst. For nu vil vi fokusere på 160 pund vægtklasse og på Cotto, Andy Lee og Golovkin.”

 

Bernard Hopkins, Fremtidige Hall of Famer og Golden Boy Promotions Partner

 

“Vi har denne fyr [Lemieux], han er hård. Jeg kender Gabriel Rosado, og han håndterede ham let. Jeg ved hvad jeg ser på. Jeg har øje for talent, og han har det.

 

“Vi vil fortsætte og vise dig, at vi kæmper for de bedste kampe og giver fansen kvalitet. Jeg er i det for at lave de bedste kampe. Bedømmelserne taler for sig selv. Fans taler for sig selv. Bedøm os efter kvaliteten af ​​de kampe, du ser, og bliv ikke fanget i 'følelserne’ af det.

 

“Jeg vil ringe til alle, sådan blev Oscar opdraget, sådan er jeg opvokset, kæmper bedst.

 

“Tre ting om David: en, han underskrev med Golden Boy Promotions; to, han har talent på mange måder, ikke kun er han en fanfavorit, han er en god defensivkæmper; tre, han ser godt ud.

 

“Jeg ser nu støbningen af ​​en anden arv, hans arv. Men i slutningen af ​​dagen har han en mulighed i mellemvægtsafdelingen, Jeg er glad for at være her med en mellemvægt, som jeg allerede har meget respekt.

 

CAMILLE ESTEPHAN, Præsident for Eye of the Tiger Management

 

“Canelo er på listen. Cotto er på listen. Golovkin er på listen. Andy Lee er på listen. Alle er på listen.

 

“Jeg synes bestemt, at han er den mest populære bokser, tallene beviser det. Han har et stort potentiale, og himlen er grænsen.

 

“Jeg ringede i går fra nogen i bokseverdenen om, hvor spændende det er at arbejde med Golden Boy, og han sagde 'David er som et solskin, der stråler over boksningens verden’ og det er meget hjertevarmende. Det er hjertevarmende at sidde ned med Oscar, Bernard og Eric, som jeg har lært at kende meget godt siden Rosado-kampen. Dette er en stor gruppe mennesker, og jeg tror, ​​at vi kan bygge noget sammen, der vil få en enorm indflydelse i bokseverdenen.

 

“David er den ene fyr, det så snart jeg så ham første gang i gymnastiksalen, den første sit-up, han gjorde, og den sidste sit-up, han gjorde, var nøjagtig den samme, han snyder ikke. Han har den ultimative tillid, fordi han ikke snyder sig selv, og jeg har den ultimative respekt for ham. Jeg er meget stolt af ham som person.

 

ERIC GOMEZ, Senior Vice President for Golden Boy Promotions

 

“Efter Rosado-kampen, Lemieux var imponerende, og vi indledte samtaler med Camille. Folk elsker David, og det gav mening. David har en spændende stil.

 

“Vi kigger på HBO, ratings mod Rosado var nogle af de bedste hele året. De er meget begejstrede for David.”
