LOS ANGELES (November 30, 2018) – One day before the most significant heavyweight event in the U.S. di atas 15 tahun, heavyweight legends have descended on Los Angeles to discuss the Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury showdown that will be live on SHOWTIME PPV® Saturday night from STAPLES Center in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

A media roundtable featured heavyweight greats Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis, Riddick Bowe, Gerry Cooney, Earnie Pencukur, Buster Douglas dan Michael Spinks as they broke down Saturday’s battle of unbeaten giants.

 

 

 

Tiket untuk acara, which is promoted by BombZquad Enterprises and Queensberry Promotions, in association with TGB Promotions and DiBella Entertainment, are on sale now and are available via AXS.com. Wilder vs. Fury will be produced and distributed by SHOWTIME PPV. The suggested retail price (SRP) for the pay-per-view telecast is $64.99 for standard definition.

 

 

 

The roundtable was hosted by SHOWTIME Sports award-winning reporter Jim Gray from the Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites, Los Angeles. Here is what the heavyweight legends had to say Friday:

 

Evander Holyfield

 

 

“I feel that Deontay Wilder will win because eventually he’ll land that right hand. He’s very patient. He’s a thinker, but he can also take chances. When people take chances, they win.

 

 

 

“Deontay might not have as much experience as we did in our day, but he’s got the power. That’s what the people want to see and I think they’re going to be happy when they see it.

 

 

 

“There was a point in time where every great heavyweight was from the United States. We had a very good amateur program. I was the last true heavyweight champion from the U.S. before Wilder and until I lost the decision against Lennox.

 

 

 

“To be the heavyweight champion of the world, and to say you’re the best, you have to fight any man.”

 

LENNOX LEWIS

 

 

 

“I think it’s going to be a great fight. Deontay Wilder has a terrific right hand and when it lands, not too many people can stand up to it. I also think that you can’t hurt what you can’t hit. Tyson Fury is not an easy person to hit. He has great ability and movement. I’m going with Deontay early or Fury late.

 

 

 

“We all know how it feels to lose the heavyweight championship. We know how hard it is to gain it back. Fury has lost it, and now he wants it back. I can see now that he’s sacrificing and saying to himself that he shouldn’t have lost it, and now he has to regain it.

 

 

 

“I think the view in the U.K. is that Tyson Fury is the man that stepped up. The gauntlet was thrown out there and he stood up for Britain. Deontay came to England to challenge Anthony Joshua, but it was Tyson Fury who answered the call.

 

 

 

“I would say that there are a couple of meccas in boxing that are places where everyone wants to fight. Las Vegas, New York and of course, Los Angeles. My fight against Vitali Klitschko at STAPLES Center was a great fight. My plan that night was not to box to go the distance, I boxed to go a short distance and it did.”

 

RIDDICK BOWE

 

 

 

“I’m going with Deontay Wilder tomorrow night. He’s going to put on a great show for everyone and get another knockout.

 

 

 

“Tyson Fury is skilled and tall, tapi bagiku, he doesn’t do enough on offense. He moves but he doesn’t move his hands enough.”

 

GERRY COONEY

 

 

 

“I think it’s a great fight tomorrow night. We know that Fury is coming back motivated. If Wilder finds a home for that right, he’s going to take Fury out. I think he’s going to connect at some point during the fight.

 

 

 

“I think Tyson Fury is a great man for how far he’s come back in his life and for standing up to Deontay Wilder. Fury called him out, so maybe he knows something we don’t know.

 

 

 

“I’m so glad to be up here. Look at all these great heavyweights and great guys. It’s special and they’re all here to watch this fight tomorrow night.”

 

EARNIE SHAVERS

 

 

 

“Me and Deontay are both from Alabama. I’ll be inducted into the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame soon and Deontay will be there one day as well. Deontay is a great puncher and I’m pulling for him tomorrow night.

 

 

 

“I fought in a great era. If you fight guys on the same level, you’ll get good fights. These guys today could get in there in our day and put on a good show.”

 

BUSTER DOUGLAS

 

 

 

“I think this is going to be a good competitive fight. If I had to pick, I’d take Deontay Wilder by knockout in the eighth round.

 

 

 

“I feel like Tyson Fury has already won by battling back and getting into great shape and being in this position. I’m sure many people thought they’d never see him back here. That’s a victory in itself.

 

 

 

“My victory over Mike Tyson changed my life in a great way. I was now the heavyweight champion of the world. My dream had come true. Seeing my two youngest kids being born was the only thing that could top it.”

 

MICHAEL SPINKS

 

 

“Semoga orang terbaik menang. I don’t know who’s in the best of shape but I think Fury being out of the ring makes me lean toward Deontay Wilder. If Fury is as big in person as they say he is, he’s got a great chance.

 

 

“If you’re the underdog, you just have to go on what you know and what you’ve worked on. You can’t pay attention to the doubters. You focus on what you’ve prepared yourself for and give it your all. I always saw myself winning. It’s the greatest feeling to come out of the ring victorious.”

Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites Los Angeles:
JARRETT HURD
“Everything that my team and I have spoken about has come to pass. I’m here as the co-main of a massive card and I’m just really appreciative of everyone who believed in me and helped push me to this moment.
“Saturday night I want to show my versatility. Everyone has seen that I’m electrifying. I bring the action. But I want to show that I am swift and I do have defense. I know how to use my height and range. I’m still going to bring the action on Saturday, so you have to make sure to tune-in.
“We don’t think of Welborn as a tune-up fight. Jason Welborn is a British champion for a reason. We just want to go out there and establish the game plan we worked on in camp.
“I want to show my defensive side and show that I can box and move. I want to show that I don’t have to just keep coming forward. I’m going to be able to do that and start to break him down and get him out of there.
“Everybody sees my demeanor, and they know that I carry that to the ring. My composure is my biggest attribute. Tidak peduli apa yang dikatakan orang, I’m always going to be me.
“I’m number one in the division and things are going to play out how I want them. We’ve had three tough camps training for southpaws. When I eventually fight (WBC champion) Jermell Charlo, I’m going to be ready because of all the work on my versatility and defense. I’ll be ready for Jermell Charlo.
“I want to be an active champion because I didn’t have a lot of amateur fights. I need to stay in the ring and get all the experience I can. I want to get these good fights in while I’m still young and healthy.
“I’m back from my surgery and we’re going to get back to the old Jarrett Hurd. I’m going to show everyone all that I can do. Everyone knows that there’s always going to be action. It’s going to be a wonderful fight on a wonderful card. Don’t blink during this one.”
JASON WELBORN
“This is a dream come true to be here today. Hurd has worked his way up to get here just like I have. Sekarang juga, he’s in my way. I hope everyone enjoys what I bring to the table on Saturday night.
“I have the belief that I’m born and bred for this game and I’m going to show it to the whole world on Saturday night. I always prove people wrong.
“The last two years I’ve become the best in Britain and beaten everyone they put in front of me. When people doubt me, I train even harder. I’m coming to win and I’ve got nothing to lose.
“I have to get what I deserve and I’ll do it on Saturday night. I’ve already been through the storm. He’s got what I want.
“I’ve got to enjoy the fight and get what I want. He can look past me all he wants, but once he feels what I bring to the table, we’ll see how he reacts. I’m ready for whatever he’s going to bring to the table.”
LUIS ORTIZ
“I want to thank everyone who has helped me get this opportunity. I like to do my talking in the ring, but I’m happy that Travis Kauffman stepped up. A lot of heavyweights haven’t done that and I’m glad we can make this fight happen.
“I’m coming to do my job. This is a heavyweight fight and we know that means one punch can change everything. It’s not going to end well for Travis on Saturday night.
“Ada 10 rounds to get the job done, and three minutes per round. I’m going to get my job done. The job is to seek and destroy. So I hope that Travis is very prepared to give the fans a great show. Saturday night you’ll see ‘King Kong’ di atas ring.
“I’ve pushed myself even harder than ever in training camp. We’re sticking with the same game plan of family first and I believe I will be rewarded. My five-year-old boy reminds me that I have a loss and that motivates me to train harder and harder.
“I expect Travis to have the great confidence he’s showing. It’s a great chance for him and I’m sure he’ll be motivated. I’m motivated for every fight, because it’s not just about my opponent. My goal is to provide for my family and Travis is in the way. I’ve never deterred from that mentality and it’s got me ready for Saturday night.”
TRAVIS Kauffman
“I’m thankful to Luis Ortiz for taking this fight. Everybody is afraid to fight him, but I’m not afraid of anyone. We all know that Luis Ortiz can punch, but I don’t care about any of that. It’s my time. I come from a rough background and I won’t back down.
“Ini adalah waktu saya. There’s nothing that’s going to stop me from taking this guy down. He’s so worried about Deontay Wilder, but he has to worry about me before he gets any rematch.
“You might not know who I am right now, but you will after Saturday night. I’m going to make sure people remember my name.
“Luis Ortiz is very skilled, but if you want to be the best you have to fight the best. No one actually wants to step up and take this fight, but I really believe this is my time. I bring some heat in the ring and I come to fight every time.”
JOE JOYCE
“I’m excited to be on this massive card. I’m going to give the whole world a treat as part of a great event. You have to tune-in and watch me start the show off right on Saturday night.
“Training in Big Bear has been a perfect environment for me. It’s in the mountains, it has the altitude and it’s secluded. I’ve seen what goes into their training camps and worked alongside the best in the world. They’ve helped me install the kind of style that will have me at my best.
“I have the Olympic pedigree, but now it’s about advancing the brute strength and really getting the perfect snap on my shots.
“Sparring against Tyson Fury was really top-level work. I know that it’s made me a better fighter. He’s looking fit and strong and it shows when you’re in the ring with him.
“Ini adalah kesempatan besar. Abel Sanchez has done a tremendous job getting me ready for this position. I’m excited to show everyone my skills and everything I’ve learned.
“I’m glad that Joe Hanks decided to take this fight. I can’t wait to lace up the gloves and get the party started. I’m going to keep my knockout streak going and I guarantee it’s going to be exciting”
JOE HANKS
“It’s been a long time coming for this moment. I’m thankful to my team and I’m excited to be on this card with other great heavyweights. It’s a great time to be a heavyweight. I’m ready to put my name in the ring to have the chance to really do something special with a great performance Saturday.
“The work has been done. I did everything that I had to do. I’ve done more than I did preparing for my past fights. Being the underdog doesn’t mean much to me. I’m from Newark, New Jersey, and we’re all underdogs there.
“I’ve put the time in and I’ve had everyone supporting me and pushing me and I think it’s going to get me over the hump. I’m just really excited to get in there.”
STEPHEN Espinoza, Presiden Olahraga & Pemrograman acara, Showtime Networks Inc.
“When we talk about Jarrett Hurd, he’s a fighter who has seemingly come out of nowhere and has had an incredibly rapid rise to the top. He was not a decorated amateur. He has learned on the job. All he has done since beating Oscar Molina in 2016 is impress. He is recognized as one of the bright young stars in boxing. He has been off due to injury and certainly could have taken an easier fight than Jason Welborn, who is a British Commonwealth champion. We’re expecting an action fight there.
“Luis Ortiz is one of the top heavyweights in the world. He has one blemish on his otherwise perfect record, a loss to Deontay Wilder. Perhaps Ortiz was just seconds away from victory. We talk about a slim margin in fights, that was the slimmest of margins. I think he is going to be trying to make a statement on the undercard that he deserves a rematch against Deontay Wilder. Standing in his way will be Travis Kauffman. This is another all-action fight filled with big punchers.
“In our opening bout, we have one of the most talked-about rising young heavyweights in the sport – Joe Joyce, who is taking on a tough veteran in Joe Hanks. Seperti kita ketahui, the heavyweight division has been the focus more in the last six to nine months than we’ve seen in the last couple decades. Joe Joyce is at the top of the list on the potential next wave of future stars. He is certainly not wasting any time taking on a fighter of Joe Hanks’ caliber.
“When you look at the card overall, you’ve got some of the biggest punchers in boxing. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see several knockouts on this card. Don’t miss the action.”

Boxing’s Best Heavyweights Past and Present Give Their Thoughts and Predictions On Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury Blockbuster as Fight Week Begins in Los Angeles

Tinggalkan komentar
Hari Sabtu, Bulan Desember 1 Live pada SHOWTIME PPV® dari
Staples Center & Presented by Premier Boxing Champions

LOS ANGELES (November 27, 2018) – As fight week in Los Angles kicks off, heavyweights of the past and present have spoken, and the majority believe Deontay Wilder’s pure punching power will be enough to defeat the highly-skilled Tyson Fury pada hari Sabtu, Bulan Desember 1 on SHOWTIME PPV®.

 

 

 

Some of the greatest heavyweight names in the history of boxing weighed-in on what will be the biggest heavyweight title fight in the U.S. since Mike Tyson took on Lennox Lewis in 2002. The SHOWTIME PPV begins at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT from STAPLES Center in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

 

 

 

Tiket untuk acara, which is promoted by BombZquad Enterprises and Queensberry Promotions, in association with TGB Promotions and DiBella Entertainment, are on sale now and are available via AXS.com. Wilder vs. Fury will be produced and distributed by SHOWTIME PPV. The suggested retail price (SRP) for the pay-per-view telecast is $64.99 for standard definition.

 

 

 

Here is what the current and former heavyweight greats had to say about the Wilder vs. Fury matchup:

 

MIKE TYSON:

 

 

“Although Wilder’s punch is strong, nothing can compare to the mental strength Fury has shown both in and out of the ring. It’ll be a close call, but I think Fury’s got a true fighting chance.”

 

Evander Holyfield:

 

 

“Ini pertarungan besar. Fury’s got a lot of skills, he’s awkward and he has long arms. He has good reflexes and is a strong counter-puncher. Deontay needs to be first and he can’t wait on Tyson. Tyson’s always been the bigger fighter. In fighting Deontay it’s the same case. If things get difficult, dia (Kemarahan) got more experience and a lot of tricks. I think with Deontay’s power, he might be able to end it early, but if Tyson can frustrate him and it goes the distance, then it could go his way.”

LENNOX LEWIS:

 

 

“If it goes the distance then it belongs to Tyson Fury. If it’s a short fight it will belong to Deontay Wilder. This is an epic and most-unpredictable showdown. I can’t wait for this fight.”

GEORGE FOREMAN:

 

 

“I am a big fan of Deontay Wilder and I was impressed with Tyson Fury and how he avoided the big shots against Wladimir Klitschko. I can see him going 12 rounds with Wilder because of his height and reach.

 

 

 

“The great thing about this fight is that we’re all talking about it. I think Wilder wins a close decision.”

 

RIDDICK BOWE:

 

 

“If Wilder comes out and means business then he should beat Fury with ease. My prediction is Wilder by knockout!”

 

GERRY COONEY:

 

 

“Deontay Wilder vs.. Tyson Fury is a very interesting fight. I love Tyson Fury. I think he’s a remarkable self-promoter, and he did a great job with Wladimir Klitschko, using his feints and throwing Klitschko off his game plan. Deontay is a different kind of fighter, meskipun. Fury fights at 30 mil per jam. Deontay fights at 100 mil per jam. Jadi, when Deontay catches Fury and gets ahold of him I think it’s going to be over. I admire Fury, but I think he’s barking up the wrong tree with this fight. I think the bottom line is that Deontay is a whole different type of beast. He comes in aggressive and finishes his opponents. I hate to pick, but somebody has to lose. I’m picking Deontay by knockout and I think it ends inside of four or five rounds.”

 

LUIS ORTIZ

 

 

“If Fury decides he wants to dip and dive and move, then he can extend the fight. But it’s all up to Wilder. If Fury decides he wants to come to the middle of the ring and fight, then it’s going to be over quick. Wilder is going to catch him. Ramalan: Wilder by KO.”

CHRIS Arreola:

 

 

“I think Wilder fighting Ortiz and now Fury back-to-back gives the fans exciting fights. I like both Wilder and Fury, but for this fight I am leaning slightly toward Wilder to win.”

Keputusan Webster Riojas di Kota Atlantik Dimenangkan oleh Seldon, Ajamu, Wikins dan Manzueta

Tinggalkan komentar

Atlantic City, New Jersey (Bulan Juni 1, 2018)–Super kelas menengah Derrick Webster menggebrak jalannya menuju keputusan bulat 10 ronde atas Oscar Riojas dalam acara utama dari kartu lima pertandingan di Hotel Claridge.

 

 

 

Promosi Mis Downing mempromosikan pertunjukan yang hampir berkapasitas.

 

 

 

Dengan kemenangan tersebut, Webster merebut gelar American Boxing Federation Continental Americas Super Middleweight.

 

 

 

Webster sangat tepat dengan pukulannya, yang ia ikuti dengan pengerjaan bodi kokoh yang memerahkan sisi-sisi Riojas. Webster mengejutkan Rioja pada beberapa kesempatan, tapi pengunjung dari Monterrey, Meksiko menunjukkan dagu yang bagus dan tetap berdiri untuk pertarungan sepuluh ronde.

 

 

 

Skor semuanya 100-90 mendukung Webster dari Glassboro, New Jersey, yang kini 26-1. Riojas adalah 16-10-1.

 

 

 

“Itu tinju di sana. Saya memajangnya. Roy Jones menyuruhku untuk menahannya lama, dan itulah yang saya lakukan. Saya mulai bekerja tubuh sedikit terlambat, tapi jab adalah kunciku. Saya bisa melakukan sedikit lebih banyak dengan tubuh, tapi pukulan jab adalah segalanya malam ini,” kata Webster.

KUTIPAN & GAMBAR DARI INDUKTUR NYSBHOF

 


(L-R) – Ron McNair, Jake Rodriguez dan Bob Duffy
JAKE RODRIGUEZ: “Saya ingin berterima kasih kepada Ring 8 untuk kesempatan saya berada di sini. Saya juga ingin berterima kasih kepada istri saya karena selalu ada untuk saya, dan pelatih saya.”

(L-R) – Herb Goldman, Don Majeski dan Bob Duffy
HERB GOLDMAN: “Jika saya telah memberikan kontribusi pada tinju – Saya harap saya punya – Saya melakukannya dengan mendefinisikan ulang pencatatan dan menciptakan perspektif baru tentang sejarah tinju. Saya bangga akan hal itu, tapi saya tidak melakukannya sendiri.”
(L-R) – Joe Mesi, Jack Hirsch dan Bob Duffy
JOE MESI: “Saya memiliki banyak orang untuk berterima kasih atas kehormatan ini. Saya seorang Buffalonian. Tidak ada yang lebih menyukai satu New York, tapi ternyata tidak. Ini spesial bagi saya karena ini adalah Hall of Fame Tinju Negara Bagian New York. Ini menguatkan saya dan membuat saya berpikir bahwa saya bukan hanya anak lokal. Ada kerugian besar yang datang dari kota kecil, sparring tidak sama dengan di gym di New York City, tapi saya mendapat keuntungan datang dari Western New York. Tidak ada orang yang keluar seperti yang kami lakukan di Buffalo 10,000, kemudian 16,00 dan akhirnya 18,000 orang orang. Mereka selalu ada di belakang saya dan saya berbagi ini dengan mereka karena dukungan mereka membuat saya. Impian saya adalah bertarung di Buffalo dan terus bertarung di sana.
“Salah satu hal terpenting dalam hidup saya adalah melawan Monte Barrett di HBO di Madison Square Garden. Dia adalah salah satu petarung terhebat di dunia yang memperjuangkan gelar dunia. Saya selalu ingin mendapatkan gelar juara dunia saya, tapi saya tidak pernah mendapatkannya. Tidak apa-apa, Saya sedikit pahit untuk sementara waktu, tetapi saya tidak bisa lebih bahagia dengan karier saya. Bagian terbaik dari tinju adalah persaudaraan yang kita miliki.

(L-R) – Randy Gordon, Ron Scott Stevens dan Bob Duffy
BAJA RON SCOTT: “Saya tahu orang selalu mengatakannya, tapi inilah kebenarannya: Saya berhutang pada banyak orang yang telah mendukung saya sepanjang karir saya. Tinju selalu jauh dari rumah bagi saya dan hari ini saya merasa seperti di rumah sendiri.
“Tadi saya 30, tinggal di Brooklyn Heights, dan kembali mengendarai taksi menunggu di meja. Sebuah lampu padam di kepalaku: tinju adalah olahraga yang diunggulkan dan saya adalah yang tidak diunggulkan. Keesokan harinya saya pergi ke Gleason's Gym – pusat alam semesta. Saya berkeliling semua gym di kota, promotor pertemuan, manajer dan pelatih. Saya mulai membuat pertandingan untuk promotor dan kemudian Cedric Kushner mempekerjakan saya 1980-2002. Di 2002, Saya mendapat panggilan untuk bekerja di Komisi Atletik Negara Bagian New York sebagai Koordinator Komunitas dan Direktur Tinju. Kemudian, Saya diangkat menjadi ketua dan saya menjabat dua periode. Hari Ini, Saya sangat bangga menjadi bagian dari Hall of Fame Tinju Negara Bagian New York.

(L-R) – Bob Duffy, Henry Hascup, Bob Goodman dan Tommy Gallagher
BOB GOODMAN: “Saya tidak percaya kerumunan ini. Untuk melakukan apa yang kami lakukan, pengorbanan dan dukungan yang Anda dapatkan dari keluarga Anda sangat penting dan (dalam kasus Goodman) selama bertahun-tahun. Mereka mengizinkan kami melakukan apa yang kami lakukan. Kita semua suka tinju!”

(L-R) – Ray Mercer, Penny Allen, Ke sekolah, Clay Jenkins dan Bob Duffy
KE SEKOLAH: “Saya pikir tinju adalah olahraga terbodoh dan terbodoh yang pernah ada. Siapa yang ingin dipukul di wajah? Saya mulai bertinju terlambat. Saya bermain-main dan orang-orang bilang saya cukup bagus. Saya mulai bertinju saat masih muda 20, di Angkatan Darat, ditempatkan di Ft. Kap. Empat tahun kemudian, Saya berada di Tim Olimpiade. Alasan mengapa saya memiliki pasangan tanding yang hebat, Ray Mercer. Jika aku akan berada di ring setiap hari bersama Ray, Saya akan dipukuli, atau menjadi lebih baik.
“Saya ingat Bob Arum memberi saya kartu namanya. Saya tidak kenal dia. Saya hanya tahu tiga orang di tinju: Don King, Muhammad Ali dan Sugar Ray Leonard. Saya tidak mengikuti tinju dan satu-satunya alasan saya bertinju adalah saya harus tidur di hutan jika tidak melakukannya (di Angkatan Darat). Tinju adalah: pukul dia, sebelum dia memukulku.”

(L-R) – Bobby Cassidy, Jr., Jaime Drubin dan Pete Brodsky
PETE BRODSKY: “Saya ingin berterima kasih kepada dewan. Aku akan menjadi 70 dan mulai bertinju ketika saya masih 18. Itu menciptakan arah baru dalam hidup saya. Saya sangat bangga berada di perusahaan dengan orang-orang yang tidak hanya membicarakannya, mereka menyukainya. Jika Anda sangat menyukai olahraga ini, Anda benar-benar harus mempelajarinya. Siapapun yang menginjak ring, ditambah semua perbaikan jalan, waktu di gym dan mengorbankan apa yang mereka makan, melakukan itu untuk menjadi yang terbaik yang mereka bisa.
“Dalam tinju, Anda tidak akan memenangkan setiap pertarungan, tapi apakah petarung menang atau kalah, jika dia memberi 100 persen, dia adalah pemenang. Mereka melakukan pekerjaan, lari lima mil sehari, berolahraga di gym, dan kemudian pulang untuk menghabiskan waktu bersama keluarganya. Teman dan keluarga selalu mendukung Anda.”

(L-R) – Masyarakat Darryl & Melvina Lathan
MELVINA LATHAM: “Saya tidak dapat berkata-kata. Itu luar biasa. Cabul (mantan ketua NYSAC, Gordon), apakah kamu ingat cerita ini? Hanya ada tiga hakim dan, sayangnya, satu disebut sakit. Saya duduk di sisi ring tanpa tanggung jawab. Randy bilang aku harus bekerjamalam ini. Saya mengatakan bahwa saya tidak memiliki lisensi dan tidak dapat melakukannya. Kata Randy, 'Angkat tangan kananmu', dan itu aktif. Saya dilempar ke sana, tapi tidak apa-apa.
“Prestasi terbesar saya adalah anak-anak dan suami saya. Saya tidak bisa meminta situasi yang lebih baik. Dan Ralph Petrillo adalah bagian dari keluargaku; dia orang kedua dalam perintahku. Saya juga memiliki pejabat terbaik: wakil komisaris, inspektur, juri dan wasit. Saya tidak akan berada di sini dengan tanpa mereka. Bob Duffy menyatukan semuanya. Menurut saya pribadi dia luar biasa. Perjalanan saya berlanjut, Saya diberkati.”

World featherweight contender Toka Kahn-Clary heads to Hollywood To work with Freddie Roach

Tinggalkan komentar
(L-R) – Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach, Toka “T-Nice” Kahn-Clary & manager Seth DeRobbio

PROVIDENCE, RI (Bulan April 22, 2018) – World-rated featherweight Toka “T Nice” Kahn-Clary(24-1, 17 Biaya) has graduated from prospect to world contender. To fully develop, Kahn-Clary recently shifted his training camp from the smallest state in the country, Pulau Rhode, to the second-largest city in America, Los Angeles, where he has started working with Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach.

 

 

 

Fighting out of Providence (RI), Kahn-Clary made the six-week move to Roach’s famed Wild Card Boxing Club to receive fine tuning from Roach, avoid any potential distractions at home, and have an opportunity for world-class sparring sessions.

 

 

 

 

The chemistry was there right away between Roach and Kahn-Clary. After his first day working with Kahn-Clary, Roach said the following: “Today was a very good day. Toka has great ring-generalship, footwork and speed. I was impressed.”

 

 

 

 

“Freddie is very precise,” Kahn-Clary reported after a few days with New England native Roach. “Sometimes I get a little lazy on the ropes. Tidak, tidak, not with him. I wanted to prove right away that I listen. We were working on the pads and Freddie said, ‘You’re not as dumb as you look.’ I thought that was cool coming from him and took it as a compliment. He’s working on me being in total control in the ring. I’m not really going to learn anything too new from him, but it always helps to add a new move here and there. He saw that I’m fast and work the angles. He’s not changing my style, just sharpening my tools.

 

 

 

 

“When there is sparring, the gym is packed with fighters from 122 pounds up to heavyweight. Not just two or three, but a whole lot of guys, and the competition between everyone is great We’re working on my next opponent. Sekarang juga, I’m just preparing for my next fight, and then we can focus on my opponent when we know who that will be.”

 

 

 

 

 

Toka-Kahn’s remarkable life story started in his native Liberia, where he knew very little about his real mother as a child, or how many siblings he has in his family. When his father moved to the United States and in 1998, six-year-old Toka Kahn and his younger sister joined him there in Philadelphia.

.

 

 

 

Ayahnya, meskipun, was later shot to death, leaving Toka and his sister alone. Di 2000, they moved to Providence (RI) to live with a family that, sebetulnya, didn’t really care what happened to them. All signs led to him falling in with the wrong crowd and getting into serious trouble. He was homeless for a while but, fortunately, he found boxing and that became his salvation.

 

 

 

 

Saved the day his friend first took him to Manfredo’s Gym in Pawtucket, RI, when boxing trainer Peter Manfredo, Sr., USA Boxing/New England president Jim Perella dan pasangan yang akhirnya mengadopsinya, Andrea Watson dan Ron Clary, all became key parts of Toka’s dramatically changed life.

 

 

 

 

No matter the weather, including snow and freezing conditions, Toka always rode his bike seven miles each way to the gym from his residence, which didn’t even have electricity. He never told anybody, never complained. Satu hari, Andrea told the quiet, private kid in the gym that Christmas was coming, and she had a present for him – an extra bedroom. He was adopted and proudly changed his name to Toka Kahn-Clary.

 

 

 

 

Seorang petinju amatir dihiasi, who registered a 131-11 catatan, Kahn-Clary collected numerous medals at national tournaments, disorot oleh kinerja medali emas di 2010 DIRI KITA. National Golden Gloves Championships. He was also a silver medalist at the 2009 National Golden Gloves Championships and 2011 DIRI KITA. Kejuaraan Nasional, as well as a bronze medalist at the 2012 DIRI KITA. Nationals Championships.

 

 

 

 

Kahn-Clary arrived in LA on April 16 and he will remain there until May 25. “At this point in his career,” Toka’s manager Seth DeRobbio menjelaskan, “he had to make this move to position himself for a world title shot. There’s no quality sparring in New England in his weight class. Freddie is one of the best, if not the best trainer in boxing. Toka is going to benefit from working with Freddie. No distractions out there, salah satu. Toka is going to eat, sleep, wake-up, run, strength train and box. Itu dia, all boxing, 24/7.”

 

 

 

 

 

“I’m excited to see what my friend Freddie is going to do with one of our star fighters,” remarked Kahn-Clary’s promoter, Hall of Fame Evander Holyfield. “Toka is ready for anybody in the 126-pounds division and Freddie is going to bring out the best in him.”

 

 

 

 

Manfredo, Sr. remains involved in Toka’s career, working his corner with chief second Roach for his next fight, semoga, Bulan Juni 2nd di Atlantic City (NJ) on his promoter’s (The Real Deal Boxing) proposed card.

 

 

 

 

“I was involved in this decision and I’ve worked with Freddie before (dengan Peter Manfredo, Jr.),” Manfredo, Sr. remarked. “It is the right move to advance his career. Toka is probably the best fighter I’ve ever trained. He’ll be away from distractions at home and get quality sparring. Freddie is a top-notch trainer, who I have nothing but admiration and respect for. Freddie will teach him more and we work well together. He’s so knowledgeable and a great guy, terlalu. Freddie is a teacher and I’ll learn more as well.”

 

 

 

 

Kahn-Clary recently became a father for the first time, but he understands the sacrifice he’s making for his pro boxing career will payoff sooner rather than alter for his family.

 

 

 

 

“I talk to my daughter every day,” the affable Kahn-Clary concluded. “Thank God for technology. I facetime because she’s five months old and I don’t want her to forget my face. I don’t know how fighters used to go away to camp.”

 

 

 

 

 

The 25-year-old Kahn-Clary is world rated by the International Boxing Federation (#11) and World Boxing Federation (#13). Dalam dua pertarungan terakhirnya, Kahn-Clary defeated a pair of undefeated opponents, David Berna (13-0) by way of a second-round technical knockout in Louisville (KY for the interim North American Boxing Association (Juga) gelar kelas bulu, adding the NABA USNBC featherweight crown to his growing display case this past December, pada saat John Vincent Moralde (19-0) was unable to continue after seven rounds of punishment in Providence.
