Fort Myers, FL (Červenec 25, 2018) – Říct, že Welterweight Bryant „Goodfella“ Perrella žije, jí a dýchá box by nebyl podceněním.

 

 

 

Devětadvacetiletý rodák z Fort Myers trénuje celoročně, nekouří a nepije a drží přísnou dietu. Když horečně nebuší do těžké tašky, stínový box, zápasení, nebo práce na silnici v parném vedru, Perrella je pravděpodobně ve fitness centru na jihozápadní Floridě.

 

 

 

„Dává tomuto sportu a péči o své tělo celý svůj život,“ řekl Michael Nowling, Perrellin hlavní trenér. “Viděl jsem spoustu bojovníků, kteří tvrdě pracovali v posilovně, aby se připravili na boj, pak si udělali přestávky a zvyšovali váhu. Bryant je pravý opak – musím mu říct, že potřebuje pauzu.

 

 

 

Jižní tlapa 6'1, Perrella je považována za jednu z nejlepších 147 librové stíhačky. Na 15-1 s 13 vyhraje knockout, Perrella zaznamenala působivá vítězství nad dalšími nadějemi ve welterové váze Davidem Graytonem a Alexem Martinem. V jeho osamělém neúspěchu, čtvrtá stopka ze strany uchazeče o titul Yordenise Ugase, Perrella nastoupila do zápasu se zraněním pravé nohy a odešla s mnoha naučenými zkušenostmi.

 

 

 

Stále, čeká nejtěžší výzvu své kariéry, když se utká s bývalým šampionem welterové váhy Luisem Collazem, 37-7 (20 KO), Srpen 4 v Nassau Coliseum v Uniondale, NY. Bydlí v nedalekém Brooklynu, NY, úhledný Southpaw má nejen výhodu rodného města, ale i zkušenost, když čelil Shane Mosleymu, Keith Thurman, Ostatní Berto, Ricky Hatton, Victor Ortiz a Amir Khan mimo jiné.

 

 

 

"Luis Collazo je jedním z nejšikovnějších boxerů a je to špičkový bojovník už mnoho let.",“ řekla Perrella. "Všem dal tvrdý boj a měl několik těsných rozhodnutí proti němu.". Očekávám, že to bude největší výzva mé kariéry, ale jsem na to připraven. Takové zápasy jsou důvodem, proč jsem zasvětil svůj život boxu. Nechci jen vyhrávat – chci vyhrávat působivě a ukázat boxerskému světu, že jsem hoden získat titul v blízké budoucnosti.“

 

 

 

Perrella se setká s Collazem během deseti kol a zápas začíná 5:30 pm ET na FS2.

Fighting for the first time v 14 měsíce and coming off a severe injury, Perrella looked to impress from the opening bell. The Fort Myers native came out aggressive and decked Martin with a picture perfect right hook in the opening round. Perrella continued to be the aggressor while the Chicago-based Martin picked his spots and relied on movement. Martin had a few good moments later in the fight but Perrella’s power and punch output earned him a clear-cut victory.
Výsledky byly 79-72 a dvakrát 77-74. Perrella improves to 15-1 s 13 KO’s while Martin is 13-3 (5 KO).
"It felt great to come back” said Perrella. “I didn’t feel any ring rust and I’m satisfied with my performance. I controlled the fight with my jab and ring generalship (even after) he went into survival mode. I’m back and ready for whoever they put in front of me. My goal is still to become a world champion!"

Fort Myers, FL (Listopad 30, 2017) – Welterweight Bryant “Goodfella” Perrella returns to the ring against Alex “Chi Town Heat” Martin Pátek, Prosinec 8 at Hialeah Park in Miami, FL.
The Perrella-Martin showdown is scheduled for 10 rounds and airs on FS1 at 9 PM ET as part of Premier Boxing Champions’ “PBC na FS1” série. The bout proceeds a light heavyweight matchup between former world champion Jean Pascal and unbeaten Ahmed Elbiali.
Fighting for the first time since a disappointing setback against Yordenis Ugas in September 2016, Perrella’s an outstanding 14-1 s 13 vyhraje knockout. The Fort Myers native has impressive stoppage victories over David Grayton (14-0), Ramon Ayala (25-5-1), Abraham Alvarez (20-8-1) and Patrick Boozer (11-3). A self-described gym rat, the 28-year-old has spent the last year fine-tuning his skills while also allowing a lingering injury to heal.
Living and fighting out of Chicago, IL, Martin is 13-2 as a pro and has 5 victories via knockout. V 2016, he scored a career best win by outpointing Juan Carlos Abreu (19-2-1) přes osm kol. Prior to entering the paid ranks, Martin was one of America’s top amateur boxers, vyhrál 2012 Národní Golden rukavice, 3 Chicago Golden Gloves titles and captured a silver medal at the 2011 Národní Golden rukavice. Martin is coming off consecutive slugfests with Miguel Cruz where he came up short both times, but a win over Perrella would put him back in the picture.
“Alex Martin is a talented fighter but like myself, is coming off a defeat,” said Perrella. “I’m expecting him to be at his best because this is an important fight for both of us. Training is great so far and we’ve traveled throughout Florida to work with some awesome fighters. I will be fully prepared for December 8 and plan to show everybody that my last fight was a fluke.”
