VERONA, NY. (April 15, 2016) – Undefeated bantamweight prospects Nikolay Potapov in Stephon Young fought to a majority draw in theShoBox: New Generation Glavni dogodek Petek on SHOWTIME from Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, NY.

 

The bout was scored 96-94 Potapov and 95-95 dvakrat.

 

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, Young (14-0-3, 6 Kos) found another gear in an impressive ninth, winning the penultimate round on all the judges’ scorecards. Vendar, 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,” said Potapov, ki se je vrgel 315 jabs compared to just 113 for Young. “I was the much busier fighter. I don’t know what fight the judges were watching. 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.”

 

Po boju, 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 Nocoj. Not many people knew who I was going into this, but they know me now,” said Menard, who landed nearly 50 odstotkov svojih moči posnetkov. “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.

 

V uvodnem dvoboju na televizijska oddaja, undefeated cruiserweightKonstantin Bejenaru handed Alexey Zubov the first loss of his career in a convincing eight-round unanimous decision scored 77-74, 78-73 dvakrat.

 

Save for a flash seventh round knockdown, Bejenaru (11-0, 4 Kos) controlled the fight from the outset. The Moldova native overcame a four-inch height disadvantage, attacking from different angles and controlling the exchanges on the inside and outside. Zubov (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 in 147th boxers to suffer their first pro loss on the prospect developmental series.

BROOKLYN, NY (April 12, 2016) – Kot otrok je odraščal v Magnitogorsku, Rusija,cruiserweight Alexey Zubov slišal zgodbe o legendarnem Kronk Gymu in pokojnem legendarnem trenerju Emanuelu Stewardu, a nikoli si ni mislil, da se bo imel priložnost pridružiti ekipi. Ampak potem nekega dne, nekdanjega amaterskega prvaka so prosili, naj pride v Detroit, da bi se pomeril s Kronkovim Johnathonom Banksom … in ostalo je zgodovina.
To Petek, April 15, neporaženi Zubov (10-0, 6 Kos) se bo pomeril z Mandilestijem, Moldavija Konstantin Bejenaru (10-0, 4 Kos, WSB: 0-1-1) v uvodu osmih krogov mednarodne televizije ShoBox: New Generation v živo na SHOWTME (10 p.m. IN/PT, odloži na zahodni obali) ob Turning Stone Resort Casino v Veroni, New York.

“Zadnja dva meseca sem bil v Detroitu in tako sem vesel; Želim ostati tukaj, treniraj tukaj in živi tukaj,” je rekel Zubov. “Vsak ruski borec ve za Kronk Gym in Emanuela Stewarda.”
Zubov trenutno zaključuje kamp s svojim trenerjem in Stewardovim nečakom Javanom “Sladkor” Hill v obuditvi Kronk Gym. “Všeč mi je Javanov stil,” je rekel Zubov, “in toliko sem se naučil o hitrosti rok in delu nog ter o uporabi inteligence v ringu – kako moraš razmišljati, ko si v boju.”
“Alexey se lahko veliko nauči in zlahka absorbira boksarsko znanje,” je rekel Hill. “Komaj govori angleško, vendar se v to vpije. Neverjetno je. Pripeljal sem ga v sparing z Banksom in ko smo trenirali, Aleksej je samo sedel ob strani in gledal. Kasneje, Špariral je z Johnathonom in rekel sem mu, naj neha. Rekel sem 'Poslušaj tukaj. Treniram Jonathona Banksa in ti delaš vse, kar sem mu rekel. Kaj je narobe s teboj?’ Nato sem se zasmejal in rekel: 'To mi je všeč. Gledaj naprej. Naučil te bom vsega, kar želiš vedeti.’ “
Hill pravi, da je bil ta tabor z Zubovim prehod za borca. “Prehajamo na prvenstveno raven, kjer treniraš za določenega borca. Veliko je strategije in načrtovanja. Edina stvar, ki me skrbi, je, da je preveč navdušen. Je zelo vztrajen in želi stvari dokazati. Moram ga nadzorovati in preprečiti, da bi bil preveč navdušen. To je tisto, na čemer smo delali. Ko je navdušen, postane jezen.”
“Usposabljanje je bilo prefekt. Jaz sem 100 odstotno pripravljen,” je rekel Zubov. “Vem, da je Bejenaru levičar in je nizek tip z dobrim rekordom. Prvič sem v SHOWTIME in tako sem vesel, da lahko svetu pokažem, kaj zmorem.”

Vstopnice so že na voljo

NEW YORK (Marec 16, 2016) –Eight talented up-and-coming boxers with a combined record of 116-2-4, 71 KOs will compete on a compelling ShoBox: New Generation quadrupleheader na Petek, April 15, živeti SHOWTIME (10 p.m. IN/PT, odloži na zahodni obali) od Turning Stone Resort Casino v Veroni, NY.

 

In a clash of unbeaten bantamweights in the main event, undefeated world-ranked Nikolay Potapov (14-0, 6 Kos), iz Podolska, Rusija, obrazi Stephon Young (14-0-2, 6 Kos), sv. Louis, Miss. v 10 krogu dvoboja z. Eudy Bernardo (21-0, 15 Kos) obrazov Dominikanske republike Mason “Rock Hard Mighty” Menard (30-1-0, 22 Kos), od Rayne, ., in an eight/10-round battle of hard-hitting lightweights in the co-feature.

 

Promising Russian cruiserweight Alexey Zubov (10-0, 6 Kos) measures against Konstantin Bejenaru (10-0, 4 Kos, WSB: 0-1-1) iz Mandilestija, Moldavija, in one of the eight-round bouts.

 

The two ShoBox returnees will box in the eight-round telecast opener when Kazakhstan’s devastating junior welterweight Bakhtiyar “Bakha Bullet” Eyubov (10-0, 10 Kos), Brooklyna, NY, takes on Liberia-born Samuel Seah (7-1-1, 2 Kos), Philadelphia, Pa.

Six of the fighters, all seeking to establish their credibility and make a name for themselves, are newcomers to the network and will be making their ShoBox debuts on a four-fight telecast that has a distinct international flavor (two Americans, two Russians, one Romanian, one from Kazakhstan, one Dominican and one from Liberia).

Tickets for the event presented by Salita Promotions in association with AASHA Record Breakers are currently on sale and can be purchased at the Turning Stone Resort Casino Box Office, s klicem 877.833.SHOW, ali na spletni strani Ticketmaster.com. Vstopnice stanejo $60 za ringu sedežev, $35 in $25.

The fast-rising Potapov, of Potolsk, Rusija, is ranked 10th pri IBF. Extremely rare for a fighter at this point in his career, he’s already gone 10 rounds five times and 12 rounds once against good opposition. This is his second start in the United States since signing with Salita Promotions in June 2015. The 5-foot-4, 26-year-old is coming off a shutout 10-round decision over Pedro Melo Zadnja Oktober. 29 v Brooklynu.

 

An outstanding amateur with international success, Potapov had around 200 fights before he turned pro in March 2010. Šel 13-0 as a pro in Russia. In his outing before last – and last in his homelandhe produced perhaps a career-best performance while winning a unanimous 12-round decision over then-IBF No. 10-uvrstila Jasoin Canoy, na november. 8, 2015.

“I’ve been training very hard to make my ShoBox debut a spectacular one,’’ Potapov said. “This will be my second fight in New York against a very skilled boxer in Stephon Young, who is undefeated like me. I look forward to a great competitive fight and I’m putting in my work to come out on top.’’

 

Young is a talented, lightning-fast-handed southpaw who’s done more than enough to deserve his standing as a rising star in the Midwest. He’s making his 2016 and 10-round debut.

 

Like Potapov, Young was a top-notch amateur. He compiled a record of 86-13 while representing the United States in many tournaments. In theU.S. Olympic Trials in 2011, he lost to the No. 1-rated amateur,Rau'shee Warren.

 

His pedigree solid and after years of having “celebrated amateur” permanently affixed to his name, Young turned pro in August 2011.The 5-foot-5, 27-year-old has gone eight rounds once and six rounds on four occasions. He’s coming off a third-round TKO over Terrance RoyZadnja Avgust. 8 and by far his toughest task, Young boxed unbeaten Antonio Nieves to an eight-round draw on June 20, 2015.

 

Young hasn’t fought near the caliber of fighters as Potapov but he’s excited and optimistic about April 15. “This is a great opportunity for me, going up against another undefeated fighter in front of the world onShoBox,’’ Young said. “You can’t pass up an opportunity like that. Usposabljanje se bo super. I’m training with some of the top notch fighters in the world like Juan Carlos Payano, Claudio Marrero in Yenifel Vicente.

“I know little about my opponent, but what I know makes me feel like we are the perfect match. We both have good records and we are both good fighters, but once I bring my A game, he’d be helpless. I will be watching all my P’s and Q’s. Once you get me in that zone I have no doubt I will win.’’

Bernardo, a 29-year-old with a million-dollar smile – and a punch to matchhas registered knockouts in nine of his last 10 pretepi. In Menard, he’s facing unquestionably the most seasoned foe of his career. This is Bernardo’s fourth U.S. start and second in a row. He’s coming off a clinically ruthless second-round demolition of Ben Odametey Zadnja Februar. 6 v Detroitu, me.

 

Born and raised in Santo Domingo, Dominikanska republika, Bernardo had an extensive amateur career (128 pretepi) before turning pro in October 2009. He captured the Dominican Republic Lightweight Title in his fourth start. Tall for his division at 5-foot-10½, Bernardo is aggressive, technically sound and possesses two-fisted power.

“With him being 30-1, beating Mason Menard will take me to the next level, exactly where I want to go,’’ said Bernardo, who trains in Houston with former world champion Frank Tate. “I’m excited about this fight onShoBox because it’s a good opportunity for America to get to know me. Usposabljanje se bo zelo dobro. Every day I am learning. My diet is terrific. My whole team is with me, pushing me to get better.’’

Menard, former Louisiana State and UBO All-Americas Lightweight Champion, is a pressure and hard-punching fighter who’s won 28 in a row.

He has fought all but one of his fights in Louisiana and this will be his second start v 21 mesecev. In his most recent effort, se je ustavil Jesus Lule-Raya in the first round on Aug. 8, 2015.

 

While inactivity could pose a problem, Menard is primed for Bernardo. Nobody, pravi, is going to deter him from his aspirations of making it to the top.

 

“It’s blessing to me to be able to fight and showcase my talent on SHOWTIME,’’ said Menard, who has weighed at or around 135 pounds throughout a pro career that began in October 2007. “It’s been a part of a dream of mine to do so and to one day fight for a major world title. OnApril 15, Bernardo stands between me and my dreams. It’s all or nothing. It’s rise or lay down. April 15 is the day I’ll be able to be known as a real legit fighter. I WILL NOT let this guy stop me from accomplishing any of those things. Quote me, I will give it my all, I will rise, I will be known and I will be world champion.’’

 

Zubov, a sensational former international amateur standout and seven-time cruiserweight tournament champion in Russia and Europe, turned pro in April 2014. His first five fights were in the U.S. – four in California and one in Brooklyn. He won all but one inside the distance.

 

The 6-foot-1½-inch 30-year-old will be making his 2016 debut after fighting four times in 2015 in šest krat 2014. Zubov’s last five fights were in Russia; he is coming off a first-round TKO over Rihards BigisZadnja Nov. 29.

Zubov was born and raised in Magnitogorsk, a city which isn’t exactly a fistic hotbed. Getting into boxing was hardly common for his corner of the world. He didn’t grow up in a nasty neighborhood or fighting in the streets. Dejansko, he has a profound mathematical background, having attended a special school that concentrated on physics and mathematics. But while his first sport was hockey, he took to boxing.

Regarding his upcoming skirmish, Zubov said, “I spent several weeks training at the Kronk Boxing Gym with Javan ‘Sugar’ Hill in Detroit for my ShoBox debut. I learn every day in the gym and look forward to putting my knowledge to use April 15 na ShoBox. I want to follow in the footsteps of all the great Kronk fighters.’’

Bejenaru a Moldovan-born fighting out of Catskill, NY, je kar njegova 2016 debut. Since moving to the U.S., the 5-foot-10, 31-year-old southpaw is 10-0 s 1 No Contest dating to September 2012. V svoji zadnji izlet, he won a unanimous eight-round decision over Joel Shojgreen na oktober. 14, 2015.

“I know Zubov is a good fighter. I am training very hard and have been waiting for an opportunity like this so people can see just what I can do,’’ said Bejenaru, who was born in a Moldovia, a small land-locked country in Eastern Europe. “I am ready to go and very excited about this fight.’’

 

Kot amater, Bejenaru won a bronze medal at the 2006 European Amateur Boxing Championships, multiple medals at the European Union Amateur Boxing Championships and the Gold Medal at the 2010 Svetovni Combat Games.

 

Yeyubov, 29, of Astana, Kazahstan, has fought a total of 16 rounds in his 10 fights since going pro in February 2012. A one-main offensive juggernaut, he’s scored six first-round knockouts, two second-round knockouts and two third-round knockouts. This will be his ninth fight in the U.S.

 

V njegov ShoBox debut in his last start this past Jan. 22, Eyubov droppedJared Robinson, three times en route to a third-round TKO (0:56).

 

“I’m honored to be back on ShoBox,’’ said the 5-foot-6 Eyubov who’s promoted by Salita Promotions. “I went back home to Kazakhstan after my last fight and came back with more inspiration and motivation to be the best fighter in the world. I am training very hard every day in New York City and look forward to putting on a show April 15. My gratitude toShoBox for giving a young upcoming fighter like me the opportunity to showcase his skills against the best possible opponents on national TV in the U.S. It’s just amazing.’’

Eyubov got into boxing the hard way. “I used to live in a very bad neighborhood and would constantly get into street fights. I’m not a big guy so I started boxing to learn to defend myself,'' Je dejal. “I had over 150 amaterski pretepi. I won about 125-130, most were by knockout. I beat Olympic champions and international champions, but I was not allowed to travel. It might have been because of where I come from – they didn’t have political connections. They’d tell me, ‘Win by knockout, or you’re not going to win.’ I had to fight heavier guys sometimes. But I was so rough and hit so hard, I’d ruin some of their best fighters at my weight.’’

 

Ja, a 5-7, 28-year-old, osvojil ShoBox and eight-round debut lastNov. 6 with an upset, unanimous decision over previously undefeatedO'Shanique Foster. Teah outpointed Foster, who would go on to win his ensuring start on ShoBox.

 

“It’s a privilege and honor to be facing Eyubov on SHOWTIME,’’ said Teah, who’s coming off an eight-round draw against Demond Brock Zadnja Jan. 22. “I don’t know much about him. I know he’s from Kazakhstan with a perfect record. He fought last time I fought on the same card, but I didn’t get to see him and he didn’t get to see me. Now we get to fight each other.

Fighter/Promoter Salita Says Detroit Was the Obvious Choice for Upcoming Series of Professional Boxing Shows

Detroit Brawl Banner
‘Detroit BrawlBegins Sobota, Februar 6, at the Masonic Temple
I strongly feel that Detroit has a lot of potential to become a hub for pro boxing. Not only with its own talented fighters, but also for boxers from around the country and around the globe. With consistency, competitive fights and talented boxers there’s a tremendous amount of potential for world-class boxing in the city of Detroit. Dmitriy Salita
World-class boxer turned promoter Dmitriy Salita, of Salita Promotions, says the choice to base his new series of live fights in Detroit was an easy one to make. A city and state that has produced such all-time greats as Floyd Mayweather, Tommy Hearns and Joe Louis to name a few, as well as legendary trainers such Emanuel Steward and Eddie Futch is, according to Salita, the perfect place to launch a succession of top-notch boxing shows.
Appropriately entitled theDetroit Brawl,” the series will kick off at the iconic Masonic Temple in Downtown Detroit on Sobota, Februar 6 pri 6:30 pm. Featured that night will be a diverse array of up-and-coming prospects and established contenders from Michigan and around the world including Detroit’s James Gordon Smith (8-0, 5 Kos), Ed Williams (10-1-1, 4 Kos), James Ballard (5-0, 2 Kos), and Antonio Wade (1-0, 1 KO), as well as former world title challenger and currently world-ranked cruiserweight Junior Wright of Chicago (14-1-1, 11 Kos), undefeated Dominican Eudy Bernardo (20-0, 14 Kos), Brooklyn’s Dimash Niyazov (8-0-3, 4 Kos) and the professional debut of Turkmenistan’s former Asian Games Amateur Champion, Serdar Hudayberdiyev.

Detroit is America’s great comeback city and boxing fans love a comeback,” Said Beseda, who once challenged for a world title and currently sports a 35-2-1, 18 KOs record as a fighter. “This city has some of the best homegrown boxers in the country and the world and we plan to highlight those talents throughout this series. I thought it was a natural to run consistent high-class show here. Detroit and the State of Michigan, as a whole, have a rich boxing culture: The boxing fans here will respond positively. And for the local up-and-comers, they will have a place close to home to build a fan base.
Though he is Ukraine-born and Brooklyn-raised, Salita has a long history with the area, having trained here since early in his fighting career.
I’ve been coming to Detroit for six years, to train at the Kronk Gym with Emanuel Steward and Sugar Hill, his nephew,” explained Salita. “I got a chance firsthand to see the Detroit boxing culture and witness its tremendous talent!”
33-year-old Salita started boxing at age 13 at Starret City Boxing Club in Brooklyn, New York, and went on to become a highly decorated amateur boxer before his professional career. “At the time I started boxing, the Starrett City Boxing Club was run by Jimmy O’Pharrow. It was one of the best gyms in New York City. It produced some of the best fighters in the world today. We all came up together and had ‘fights of the yearsparring sessions almost every night. The competitive nature of those sparring sessions are what made me so successful in boxing, and when I came here to the Kronk gym I witnessed that same atmosphere.
Still an active fighter, after losing his challenge to world champion Amir Khan in 2009, Salita says he looked around at his options and decided that with his strong fan base, becoming a promoter was a natural progression. Salita says he’s proud of diversity and talent level he’s been able to provide for the inaugural show of the series.
I like that this show has several of Detroit’s up-and-coming stars and boxers from different places around the world as well. Junior Wright is world-ranked and one of the best cruiserweights in the world. He’s looking to get back to another world title shot. Eudy Bernardo, an undefeated lightweight prospect from the Dominican Republic, is looking to rise to the top of the division. And the Detroit fighters are some of the best including James Ballard, Eddie Williams and James Gordon Smith, a former national champion in the amateurs. Antonio Wade is another hot prospect from the Detroit area. We’ve also got Asian games gold medalist Serdar Hudayberdiyev making his pro debut. He’s already the greatest fighter his country has ever produced. People are flying out from Turkmenistan to see the fight. I’m very excited about this show and for the future of boxing in this great city!”
