Pennsylvania featherweight Cornellio Phipps living the dream 2022 Youth World Championships November 14-26 in La Nucia, Ισπανία

Νοέμβριος 15, 2022 FNU47 Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

COLORADO SPRINGS, Αγκαλιά. (Νοέμβριος 10, 2022) – As talented featherweight Cornellio “Chada” Phipps prepares for the upcoming Youth World Championships, he admits to living the dream, and before he turns pro in a few years, the Olympic-style boxing plan for him is medaling in the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

The 17-year-old Phipps, who fights out of Oxford, Pa., first got into boxing four years ago on the advice of his father. Phipps played basketball and football, but he didn’t feel either of those were his true spot. He actually fell in love with boxing while watching fights before he even boxed, when he was seven.

“I tell people to never give up their dreams, to keep punching, and never let anybody doubt you,” Phipps said. “This feels good (preparing for the Youth Worlds). I never thought I’d get to this stage. It’s been tough but fun. I’m on Team USA representing my country.

“It starts on the big stage by me medaling at the Youth Worlds (Νοέμβριος 14-26, in La Nucia, Ισπανία). Being on Team USA has made a big difference for me. I’ve learned how to box against different moves, understanding the points system, and how to win. Training in Colorado Springs has helped me to succeed and also have fun learning from my new coaches.”

Phipps has already tasted success prior to the Youth Worlds. He has captured gold medals at the 2022 USA Boxing National Qualifier, 2021 USA Boxing Youth National Championships, καθώς και η 2020 και 2019 Junior National Championships.

All-around boxer-puncher is the best way to describe Phipps style in the ring. He can brawl, κουτί, and move around well. “I’m more of a boxer than brawler,” he noted. “I can fight on the outside or lay on the ropes. I move and show angles, plus I can easily switch to southpaw (from his orthodox stance)."

Like many of his young USA Boxing teammates, the Youth Worlds will be the first international competition of his career. These championships is something he is really looking forward to for a wide variety of reasons.

“I’m excited to be fighting on my first international competition at the Youth Worlds in Spain,” Phipps concluded. “I was supposed to fight in a tournament in Bulgaria in 2020, but that was canceled due to COVID. I’m going to show my skills at the Youth Worlds to prove I belong at the top level, and that is the Olympics.”

Competition begins in La Nucia, Spain on Tuesday, Νοέμβριος. 15 and can be followed along byκλικ εδώ.

Τον προηγούμενο μήνα, Ο Λάνγκστον ανέλαβε τον Jacob Deppmeyer (1-0) στο Πόρτλαντ, Μέιν στο "NEF 42", χάνοντας μέσω τεχνικού νοκ-άουτ στον πρώτο γύρο.

Langston, ένας δια βίου επαγγελματίας του Ταεκβοντό, αυτή τη στιγμή αντιπροσωπεύει το MMA του Young που εδρεύει στο κοντινό Bangor, Μέιν.

«Είναι δύσκολο να κάνουμε μάχες εντελώς, αλλά ακόμη περισσότερο στην πατρίδα μου,»Σημείωσε ο Λάνγκστον. "Ετσι, με αυτό το τελευταίο χαμένο δεν πίστευα ότι θα έπαιρνα άλλο αγώνα για λίγο. Μπήκα στο κεφάλι μου και είπα ότι ήθελα να σταματήσω να αγωνίζομαι για λίγο, αλλά όταν πήρα το τηλεφώνημα τρεις εβδομάδες μετά την απώλεια, Δεν μπορούσα να πω όχι. Αυτό είναι κάτι που χρειάζομαι, μάχες πλάτη με πλάτη. Απλώς πρέπει να εμφανιστεί σαν να εμφανίζονται στο γυμναστήριο και θα σηκώσω το χέρι μου χωρίς αμφιβολία. "

Ο Aaron Hughes θα κάνει το επαγγελματικό και διαφημιστικό του ντεμπούτο με τη NEF. Είχε μια πολύ ενεργή ερασιτεχνική καριέρα από το ντεμπούτο του στο 2015, συνθέτοντας ένα ρεκόρ 4-6 ενώ αγωνιζόταν με κάρτες μάχης στην πολιτεία της Μασαχουσέτης.

«Είμαι πολύ ενθουσιασμένος που έκανα το ταξίδι στο Μέιν για να κάνω το επαγγελματικό ντεμπούτο μου,»Είπε ο Χιουζ όταν έφτασε για σχόλιο. «Ο αντίπαλός μου είναι ικανός, αλλά έρχομαι να κάνω μια παράσταση, και είναι απλώς ένας άντρας στο δρόμο των ονείρων μου στο UFC. Σας ευχαριστώ για τη NEF που με βγήκε έξω. "

Boxing’s Longest Reigning Heavyweight Champion Battles Dangerous Cuban Puncher to Settle Score After Epic First Clash

Tickets on Sale Now!

LAS VEGAS (Σεπτέμβριος 28, 2019) – Boxing’s longest reigning heavyweight world championΝτίοντεϊ “Ο βομβιστής του Χαλκού” Γουάιλντερwill take on his most dangerous challenger to date when he defends his WBC title in a rematch against once-beaten Cuban sluggerLuis “Κινγκ Κόνγκ” Ortiz in the main event of the FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View Saturday, Νοέμβριος. 23 στο MGM Grand Garden Arena στο Λας Βέγκας.

Three-division champion and current WBA Featherweight ChampionΛέων “Σεισμός” Σάντα Κρουζ will seek a title in another division in the co-main event when he takes onMiguel “El Michoacan” Λουλούδια for the WBA Super Featherweight Championship as part of the pay-per-view action beginning at 9 μ.μ. ET / 6 μ.μ.. PT.

Wilder and Ortiz will renew the rivalry they set in motion when they first engaged in an explosive showdown in Brooklyn that was one of 2018’s best fights. Wilder won that bout by 10^ου round TKO after Ortiz stunned him and almost had him out in the seventh round. The thrilling match featured plenty of twists and turns to necessitate a rematch.

With a combined 66 knockouts σε 74 σπίρτα, Wilder vs. Ortiz II is a heavyweight duel that guarantees an awesome display of punching power. The first fight last year saw Wilder dropping Ortiz in the fifth round, Ortiz stunning and hurting Wilder in a seventh round that he won 10-8 on all the judges’ κάρτες, and Wilder eventually dropping Ortiz again with a powerful right uppercut that forced the referee to stop the bout in the 10^ου γύρος.

Εισιτήρια για την εκδήλωση, which is promoted by BombZquad Promotions, TGB Promotions and Mayweather Promotions, are on sale now and can be purchased atwww.mgmgrand.com ήwww.axs.com.

“We are thrilled to add this phenomenal heavyweight rematch between Deontay Wilder and Luis Ortiz to an exciting month of entertainment at MGM Grand,” Richard Sturm, President of Las Vegas Live Entertainment and Sports, είπε. “We can’t wait for fight fans to witness what is sure to be a ‘knockout’ of an evening at the Grand Garden Arena.”

Γουάιλντερ (41-0-1, 40 KOs), a bronze medal winner for the U.S. boxing team at the 2008 Ολυμπιακοί Αγώνες, has more than lived up to the nickname “The Bronze Bomber.” The 33-year-old Wilder has knocked out all but one of the men that he has faced in the ring, making him one of the most feared single-punch knockout artist in boxing today.

The most active heavyweight champion in the sport, this will be Wilder’s third title defense in 11 μήνες. He is coming off a highlight-reel first round knockout of Dominic Breazeale in Brooklyn on May 18. Before that had one of the most dramatic matches of 2018 when he dropped Tyson Fury twice, including a stunning knockdown in the 12^ου γύρος, on the way to a split draw last December.

Born and still living and training in Tuscaloosa, Αλαμπάμα, Wilder will return to fight at MGM Grand in Las Vegas for the first time since he won the heavyweight title with a dominant 12-round decision over Bermane Stiverne on January 17, 2015. The victory had even more significance for Wilder because it came on the birthday of his boxing idol, Muhammad Ali. The rematch against Ortiz will be his 10^ου υπεράσπιση του τίτλου.

“When I fought Ortiz not only did he have the pedigree, but also he had the classification of being the boogeyman of the division,” Είπε Γουάιλντερ. “I agree with those who say that Luis Ortiz was my toughest fight to date. No one wanted to fight him and they still don’t. In the rematch there’s more confidence and more motivation to do what I have to do. I’ve already seen the style before. It’s going to make it more fun. I can’t wait to see how he tries to handle me when I’m at my best.

“This is the second big fight for me under my company, BombZquad Promotions, and I’m very happy about that. We still have a lot of work to do to build it into the kind of company that I know it’s going to be in the future, but it’s coming along. To be able to do a FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View at MGM Grand in Las Vegas under my own banner is fantastic.”

Ortiz (31-1, 26 KOs) has ripped off three-straight victories since suffering the only loss of his career in that first match with Wilder in 2018, including most recently winning a unanimous decision over Christian Hammer on March 2. Η southpaw, who was born in Camaguey, Cuba and now lives in Miami, is one of the most avoided heavyweight contenders in boxing because of his vicious knockout power and crafty southpaw boxing skills. In the first fight with Wilder, Ortiz hurt Wilder with a textbook counter right hook that nearly made him the first Cuban heavyweight world champion.

Outside of the ring, Wilder and Ortiz share a common bond-they’re both motivated to fight for their daughters. Wilder’s oldest daughter, Naieya, was born with spina bifida, motivating Wilder to take up boxing to pay for her medical expenses. Ortiz’s daughter, Lismercedes, has a painful skin condition called epidermolysis bullosa, which results in painful skin blistering and Ortiz has worked to raise awareness for.

“I have to give Deontay Wilder a lot of credit for taking this fight because it shows he has the heart of a true champion,” δήλωσε ο Ortiz. “He is not at all scared to take a dangerous fight, because let’s be honest, this is the most dangerous fight for him. In my opinion, he’s the best heavyweight in the world until someone beats him, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do on November 23 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View. ‘King Kong’ is coming to Las Vegas!”

A three-division world champion fighting out of Los Angeles, Santa Cruz (36-1-1, 19 KOs) holds the WBA featherweight title and will be making his debut at super featherweight and seeking a title in a fourth weight class. The 31-year-old has been a dominant force in the featherweight division since 2015, including two thrilling featherweight title duels against Abner Mares and Carl Frampton each. He lost the belt in his first match against Frampton in 2016, but reclaimed it in their rematch the following year. Santa Cruz has competed in title bouts in 16 τελευταία του 18 αγώνες, while picking up belts at 118, 122 and 126-pounds and is coming off a unanimous decision victory over Rafael Rivera in his last fight in February on FOX.

“When I first started boxing my dream was to be a world champion and I’ve been fortunate to win three different world championships in three different divisions,” δήλωσε ο Σάντα Κρουζ. “I couldn’t imagine winning championships in four divisions. It’s something I never really dreamed of and I’m very happy about this opportunity.

“I know Flores is another tough Mexican boxer like me. He always comes forward, so it’s going to be a fun fight for the fans. I’m really looking forward to fighting again in Las Vegas at MGM Grand. It’s going to be a really exciting atmosphere because you have Deontay Wilder and Luis Ortiz in a heavyweight championship fight, and Deontay always knocks his opponents out, but we’re hoping that our fight will steal the night.”

Λουλούδια (24-2, 12 KOs) was originally scheduled to fight Santa Cruz for the featherweight title in February, but severely sprained his ankle in training and had to withdraw from the fight. Γεννημένος στο Μεξικό, but raised in and fighting out of Houston, Flores rose up the rankings with victories over Ryan Kielczweski, Ruben Tamayo and Mario Briones. After suffering a loss to Dat Nguyen and seeking to rebound, Flores was ahead on the scorecards against Chris Avalos in a fight on FS1 when the contest was stopped due to a cut on Flores’ eyebrow that was controversially ruled to have come from a punch. Flores bounced back from that loss to stop Raul Chirino in April 2018 and also scored a TKO victory against Luis May in his most recent fight on June 29 after the ankle injury.

“I’m extremely excited to be getting this opportunity once again to fight Leo Santa Cruz and win a world title,” said Flores. “Being the co-main event on this FOX Sports PBC Pay-Per-View card with Wilder vs. Ortiz headlining is incredible. This is a dream come true for me, and I’m going to take advantage of the situation. This moment in my life is something I’ve envisioned since I was a kid. On November 23, you will see the best version of myself as I plan to be in the best shape of my life, with the goal of becoming a world champion, and what better way to do it than in Las Vegas at MGM Grand. Leo and I are going to put on a great show, that you can guarantee.”
