O começo do fim para Cobbs (L) enquanto Rivera monta seu uppercut

“Eu intensifiquei as coisas no terceiro,” Rivera explicou. “Ele parou de dar o máximo de socos no terceiro e estava se esquivando. Eu disse que não iria procurar o nocaute, mas, se veio, Eu pegaria. Eu peguei ele com meu uppercut. Eu respeito Cobbs e agradeço a ele por me dar essa oportunidade.”

Invicto N.E. prospecto Omar Bordoy, Jr. Preparado para fazer uma declaração em “Futuro 5 de Nova Inglaterra”

Deixe um comentário
“Futuro 5 de Nova Inglaterra”
Fevereiro. 10 em Worcester, MA

WORCESTER, Massa. (Janeiro 24, 2018) – Uma das principais perspectivas profissionais da Nova Inglaterra, meio-médio júnior Omar Bordoy, Jr., se preparou para fazer uma declaração em fevereiro 10th em “Futuro 5 de Nova Inglaterra”, apresentado Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), no paládio em Worcester.
Lutando contra Danbury, Connecticut, Bordoy (3-0, 1 KO) enfrenta oponente nascido em porto-riquenho, Alexander “El Bravo” Picot (2-4-1), em um ataque de quatro rodada. “Meu oponente é duro, e ele sempre vem lutar,” Bordoy disse. “Ele continua avançando e isso fará uma luta emocionante.”
Bordoy, 22 anos, é o exemplo típico de um adolescente volátil que encontrou seu caminho no boxe. Ele era um jogador de futebol do ensino médio que começou a lutar boxe com a idade de 17. Bordoy teve uma carreira amadora abreviada, destacado por sua performance vencedora no New England Golden Gloves como um boxeador iniciante.
“Eu era uma péssima cabeça quando criança,” Bordoy admitiu. “Um dia, meu primo Edgardo, me convidou para sua academia depois do treino de futebol e ele me bateu. Fui derrubado alguns degraus. Entrei no boxe e gostei de assistir Miguel Cotto e Mike Tyson. Eu até tenho algumas das tatuagens de Cotto. Agora, Sou mais boxeador, como um Pernell Whitaker ou Floyd Mayweather, Jr. Eu vim- boxeador para a frente que ainda pode brigar. Estou trabalhando em minha defesa e sinto que fazer ajustes no ringue é o que faço melhor.”
Bordoy, Jr. créditos Team Bordoy — manager A.J. Galante, cabeça trainer Bennie Little, cut-man Luis Marichal, treinador de força e condicionamento Chris Mulfalmi e Dave McDonough – pelo seu sucesso.
“Tenho o prazer de estar com as pessoas certas para me levar ao topo e estou disposto a fazer o que é necessário para chegar lá,” Bordoy adicionou.
Bordoy, que trabalha em período integral como técnico de reparo, fez sua estréia profissional em maio passado e ele lutou um total de três vezes em 2017, sua mais recente em outubro passado em Worcester em um programa promovido pela RPE, em que ele parou veterano de 34 lutas Bryan Abraham na quarta rodada.
“Gostamos de trabalhar com a equipe Bordoy,” promotor Jose Antonio Rivera comentou. “Estou orgulhoso de Omar e suas realizações até agora. Ele é jovem, lutador de retrocesso com muito potencial. Vejo grandes coisas em seu futuro e fico feliz em ver que ele está sendo guiado na direção certa por sua equipe.”
No evento principal de oito rodadas, invicto Hartford (CT) meio-pesados Richard “Popeye o marinheiro” Rivera (5-0, 4 KOs) assume Kevin “O New England Bully” Cobbs (10-2, 4 KOs), lutando fora do sul de Boston (MA), para a vaga Federação Universal Boxing (UBF) título de New England no evento principal oito-redonda.
campeão nacional amador duas vezes de Worcester Policial “BH3” Harris, III (2-0) enfrenta super peso médio brasileiro Saul Almeida (0-8-1) no evento co-featured quatro rodadas. Hartford super-médios Jose “Rated R” Rivera (4-1, 3 KOs) atenda Troy “Omar KO Artista” artista (4-7-1 (3 KOs), de Danbury (CT) em um ataque de seis rodada.
Lutando na eliminatória, tudo em jogos de quatro redondos, são Southbridge (MA) meio-médio júnior Wilfredo “o Sucaro” Pagão (3-0, 1 KO) vs. pró-estreando Nick Peralta, de Lawrence, invicto Springfield (MA) meio-pesados Raio “Bazuca” Graceski(5-0, 3 KOs). vs. pró-estreando de Hartford Paul Bansiak, Springfield welterweightGrua “Menino mau” Whitley (2-0) vs. Roger Blankenship (1-2), invicto dos super-médios Puerto Rican Jelame Garcia (6-0, 6 KOs) vs. Brasileiro Rodrigo Almeida 1-7), Bridgeport de (CT) welterweight pró-estreando Joseph Goss vs. Seth Basler (0-3), e Hartford júnior leve vs. Bridgeport de Carlos Marraro, III (0-1).

FNU Combate Sports Show: Quitters Never Win

Deixe um comentário

This broadcast of the FNU Combat Sports Show starts off with one of the most controversial stories of the week. Many sports pundits are quick to ridicule Guillermo Rigondeaux for bowing out of his blockbuster boxing match with Vasyl Lomachenko last Saturday. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith wasted no time during the broadcast, ripping into the Cuban boxer for refusing to come out for the seventh round of the one-sided fight. Teddy Atlas, exiled from his ringside reporting duties thanks to his outspoken views on boxing corruption and his abrasive treatment of lesser-experienced commentators, came to Rigo’s defense. Atlas argued with Smith from his own home studio, basically explaining that everyone is human. Tom, Tony and Rich all offer their own takes on the situation and their thoughts on the “fight.”

We also track the latest news in combat sports, recap the past week’s events and preview competing UFC and Bellator events this Saturday. We even touch on the multiple story lines involving Floyd Mayweather Jr. that are making the rounds in the sports media this week. “Dinheiro” claims he can make up to a billion dollars if he goes into the UFC for a three or four fight deal. Bem, good luck, Floyd. I hear CM Punk wants another fight.

Listen to the two part broadcast below.

FNU Combate Sports Show: Post-Fight Reaction to May/Mac, Prévia do UFC Fight Night, Sign Tony’s Petition to Throw out First Pitch at a Phillies Game

Deixe um comentário

This week’s combat sports show covers a wide range of topics. Tom, Tony and Rich discuss the dud of a boxing match that proved McGregor needed about six more months of “proper fookin” training to be more competitive in. Mayweather cruises to 50-0, but Rich questions if that really eclipses the true 50-0 circumstances that would have made Rocky’s unbeaten streak more impressive. Afinal, Mayweather did not possess an active title belt at the time of the win and the “Money Belt” shouldn’t count as a true championship he was defending. Rocky retired undefeated, owning the belt at 49-0. To eclipse Rocky’s record Floyd would need to have a world title belt or multiple belts at the time of his 50th win being recorded. We also discuss everything else going on in the combat sports world, except Ronda Rousey and Travis Browne getting married.

LAS VEGAS (Agosto. 27, 2017) – Future Boxing Hall of Famer Floyd “Dinheiro” Mayweather ended his historic career in style no sábado night with a convincing 10th-round technical knockout victory over UFC mega-star Conor McGregor in the main event of a four-fight SHOWTIME PPV event from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The 40-year-old Mayweather, fighting for the first time em 714 dias, announced after the fight that he will never fight again, ending his 21-year career in style by controlling an all-action fight that thrilled the 14,623 fans in attendance and watching around the world. With Mayweather coming forward just like he promised, referee Robert Byrd stopped the super welterweight fight at 1:05 do 10th round as Mayweather punished McGregor with a series of blows that staggered his weary opponent.
Com a vitória, the five-division world champion from Las Vegas becomes the first boxer to finish his career at 50-0, eclipsing the record he had previously shared with the legendary Rocky Marciano.
“I think we gave the fans what they wanted to see,” Mayweather told SHOWTIME ringside reporter Jim Gray after the fight. “I owed them for the Pacquiao fight. I had to come straight ahead and give the fans a show. That’s what I gave them.”
All three judges – Dave Moretti (87-83), Burt Clements (89-82) and Guido Cavalleri (89-81) – had Mayweather ahead on the scorecards at the time of the stoppage. SHOWTIME’s unofficial scorer Steve Farhood had Mayweather ahead by the score of 86-85.
The first two-division champion in UFC history, McGregor, a partir de Dublin, Irlanda, said he was fatigued as the fight got into the later stages. “He’s composed, he’s not that fast, he’s not that powerful, but boy is he composed in there,” the 29-year-old McGregor said. “I thought it was close though and I thought it was a bit of an early stoppage. He was just a lot more composed with his shots. I have to give it to him, that’s what 50 pro fights will do for you.”
Both fighters had their moments in the early rounds. Na quarta rodada, Mayweather forced McGregor to back-pedal and continued to force the action.
At the midway point of the fight, Farhood had given the first three rounds to the more aggressive McGregor, but then rounds four, five and six to the more accurate Mayweather.
“Our game plan was to take our time, go to him, let him shoot his shots early and then take him out down the stretch,” Mayweather said. “We know in MMA he fights for 25 atas. Depois 25 atas, he started to slow down. I guaranteed to everybody that this wouldn’t go the distance.
“Our game plan was to go straight ahead. I said numerous times that I wouldn’t back down and that’s what I did.”
McGregor said he would consider boxing again, and would also return to fight in the UFC. “I’ve been strangled on live TV and came back,” ele disse. “When you’re in here in the squared circle, everything is different. Let the man put me down, that’s fatigue, that’s not damage.
“Where was the final two rounds? Let me walk back to my corner and compose myself.”
Mayweather was lethally accurate in the final round, aterrissagem 20 de 26 power punches before the referee stopped the fight. McGregor had a 51-40 advantage in punches landed over the first five rounds but was out-landed 130 para 60 in rounds six through 10 as Mayweather put an exclamation point on the final fight of his career.
“Rocky Marciano is a legend and I look forward to going into the Hall of Fame one day,” Disse Mayweather. “This was my last fight hoje à noite. For sure. Hoje à noite was my last fight. Hoje à noite I chose the right dance partner to dance with. Conor, you are a hell of a champion.”
No co-main event, invicto estrela em ascensão Gervonta “Tanque” Davis defeated unbeaten challenger Francisco Fonseca via a controversial eighth-round knockout 39 segundos na rodada.
The 22-year-old Davis (19-0, 18 KOs) landed a series of clean blows before an apparent shot to the back of the head sent Fonseca down. Referee Russell Mora gave the 10-count allowing Davis to earn his 18th stoppage win in 19 lutas profissionais. The fight was originally scheduled to be Davis’ second defense of his IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship, but Davis failed to make weight na sexta-feira, coming two pounds over the 130-pound limit that Fonseca (19-1-1, 13 KOs) pesou na.
“I threw the shot as he put his head down,” disse Davis. “I was definitely going to stop him eventually. He was in trouble before the last shot.”
Davis continued, “I’m going to stay at 130 pounds and try to get my title back. I still want to unify the junior lightweight division.”
Fonseca said he was sent to the canvas with an illegal blow.
“Everybody saw that when I was going down, he hit me twice behind,” Fonseca said. “It’s a blow that’s not legal. It was here in Las Vegas, so he had the crowd going for him, and I just want a rematch. He never hurt me with that exchange. Even though he came in at 160 pounds today, he doesn’t hit as hard as they say he hits.”
Former super middleweight champion Badou Jack became a two-division world champion with a TKO win over Nathan inteligente to capture the WBA Light Heavyweight World Championship.
The Las Vegas-based, Swedish-born Jack (21-1-3, 13 KOs) out-classed Cleverly (30-4, 16 KOs) in a one-sided bout that was stopped by referee Tony Weeks with 12 seconds remaining in the fifth round. It was the first fight for Jack since moving up from 168 libras para 175 libras.
Jack had recorded majority draws in each of his past two fights against James DeGale of England and Canada’s Lucian Bute.
“É um sonho tornado realidade,” said the 33-year-old Jack. “I’ve learned that you can’t leave it in the hands of the judges.”
“Jack was very strong,” Disse Inteligentemente. “He caught me and broke my nose in the third round. It was a downward spiral from there. I was wounded and protecting myself. It’s horrible but part of the sport.”
Jim Gray asked Jack who he would like to fight next, Andre Ward or Adonis Stevenson? “I think Adonis Stevenson, let’s get it on. I’ll go to Canada. I’ll go anywhere.”
“I got a little excited at times but I barely got hit,” Jack said. “My boxing IQ was the difference in this fight. Everybody doubting me motivated me. My trainer and my team did a great job getting me to this point.”
The PPV telecast began with unbeaten Andrew Tabiti e ex-campeão do mundo Steve Cunningham meeting in a 10-round cruiserweight battle. Tabiti (16-0, 13 KOs) controlled the action against the 41-year-old Cunningham (29-9-1, 13 KOs) on his way to a unanimous decision scored 97-93 duas vezes e 100-90.
With Floyd Mayweather Sr. working in his corner, the 27-year-old Tabiti set the tempo early and set the pace for the entire fight. “I was just jabbing him and making sure I stayed smart,” Tabiti said. “He’s a veteran so I had to stay composed. I wanted to show that I could box. This was a step up for me and I felt comfortable in there.”
A Chicago native who lives and trains in Las Vegas, Tabiti landed 31 percent of his jabs (70 de 229) e 49 por cento de seus golpes de energia em comparação com apenas 27 percent for Cunningham. Com a vitória, Tabiti retains the NABF cruiserweight title and won the USBA cruiserweight championship.
“He had a decent jab but he wasn’t busy enough,” Tabiti added. “I just didn’t want to make mistakes. If you start too fast against a veteran you’re liable to get caught by him.”
Cunningham wasn’t impressed with Tabiti. “I don’t think Andrew Tabiti is a championship level fighter,” ele disse. “Eu pensei que ganhei a luta. I didn’t think I saw anything special from him.”

Yordenis Ugas Earns Decision Over Thomas Dulorme in Action-Packed Welterweight Bout Featured on Mayweather vs. McGregor Prelims on FOX & FOX Deportes Saturday Night from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas

Juan Heraldez Recovers From Knockdown to Win Decision Over Jose Miguel Borrego in Battle of Unbeaten Prospects

LAS VEGAS (Agosto 26, 2017) – Candidato ao peso meio-médio Yordenis Ugas (20-3, 9 KOs) took home a unanimous decision victory over Thomas Dulorme (24-3, 16 KOs) despite being knocked down in Mayweather vs. McGregor preliminary action presented by Mayweather Promotions on FOX and FOX Deportes Saturday night from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Both men looked to establish their jab in round one but in round two Ugas landed a big uppercut that stunned Dulorme and forced him to take a knee. Dulorme rose to his feet and tried to fire back but was hit with a right hand that put him down for the second time in the round.
“Foi uma grande luta,” said Ugas. “I knew that Dulorme had a great camp preparing for Shawn Porter so when I knocked him down I figured he would get up. I only had nine days to prepare for this fight so I had to be smart and not waste anything.”
“Foi uma boa luta,” Disse Dulorme. “It was a very tough fight. I came to fight and I took him seriously. I kept working. It was up and down but I kept working.
The bout was defined by good back and forth action with both men having their moments in control. Dulorme was committed to attacking the body to slow Ugas but was given a warning for low blows in the fifth round. Dulorme continued to test the body however and strayed too low early in the seventh round, forcing referee Vic Drakulich to deduct a point.
The deduction seemed to light a fire under Dulorme who pushed forward and began to break through the defense of Ugas. An uppercut temporarily stunned Ugas midway through the round and Dulorme followed up shortly after with a left hook that put Ugas on the canvas.
“When I got knocked down I knew I had to get up and show heart and guts,” said Ugas. “That was the only way to do it.”
The momentum of the fight continued to swing heading into the final round when Dulorme again delivered a low blow that forced the referee to deduct a point early in the frame. Both men pressed forward for the final minutes of the fight looking to score another decisive blow but after 10 rounds the fight was left up to the judges.
“I thought the referee lost the fight for me,” Disse Dulorme. “I didn’t agree with him. I didn’t think I was throwing low blows. I thought it was clean. I thought he was tired late in the fight so I tried to increase the pressure. But it was hard because the referee didn’t let me work on the inside like I wanted to.”
“I got a little tired at the end and should have closed the show,” said Ugas. “But that happens with short notice fights. I just have to keep getting better.”
All three judges saw the bout in favor of Ugas by scores of 94-91 e 93-92 duas vezes.
“I’m going to get back in camp and keep learning,” Disse Dulorme. “I’m not happy, but I’m going to keep learning. I got off the floor today and kept fighting and I’ll keep doing that in my career.”
The opening bout of the telecast saw Juan Heraldez (13-0, 8 KOs) box his way to a unanimous decision over Jose Miguel Borrego (12-1, 11 KOs) in their 10-round welterweight fight.
“I was very prepared and I took advantage of this opportunity,” said Heraldez. “I executed my plan and came out with a clear victory. Other than the knockdown, I thought that I outboxed him every other round. “The jab was really the key tonight. I dictated everything off of the jab and tried to use my angles, my footwork and my movement. I did what I wanted to do.”
Heraldez controlled the ring for much of the fight with his jab and movement on the outside, while Borrego appeared focused on delivering power shots and a knockout. Heraldez controlled the pace in the first few rounds, landing scoring combinations before darting out of the way and avoiding Borrego’s return fire.
“Heraldez ran the whole fight,” said Borrego. “I’m happy that the fans booed the decision because they know he ran. I came to entertain the fans and that’s what I did.”
The 19-year-old Borrego was content to cover up and duck low while trying to navigate through Heraldez’s jab, but was unable to land enough left hooks to win early rounds in the fight. He had his first moment at the very end of the sixth when a looping left hook connected clean with Heraldez and appeared to stun him right before the bell ended the round.
Borrego continued to attack aggressively as he chased Heraldez with big power punches. In round nine Borrego connected cleanly with a left hook that put Heraldez on the mat midway through the round.
“I let myself get distracted and that’s why I got knocked down,” said Heraldez. I got a little ahead of myself. I’m the only person who can stop myself.
Despite Borrego’s continued aggression, Heraldez was able to hold on and survive the round without much further damage.
“I have to cut the ring off better,” said Borrego. “I also need to let my hands go more and throw three or four punch combinations instead of just one or two at a time.”
The final round saw Heraldez return to using his movement as he was able to avoid the charging Borrego for the last three minutes. Depois 10 rounds, all three judges scored the bout in favor of Heraldez by scores of 96-93 e 97-92 duas vezes.
“It feels great to be on this stage and it’s moments like these where I can go out and compete and I can prove everyone right who gave me this chance,” said Heraldez. “This was a prospect fight and now I’m on to bigger and better things. I’m ready to take the next step.”
