CLEVELAND (十一月. 11, 2017) – Two Cleveland boxers stole the show 星期五 night in the final 的ShoBox: 新一代 電視節目的 2017 住在 開演時間.
Once-beaten southpaw Yuandale Evans (20-1, 14 科斯) had Cleveland’s fight fans on their feet for the final two dramatic rounds as the East Cleveland boxer earned an exciting, all-action split decision victory over previously undefeated featherweight 路易斯·羅薩 (23-1, 11 科斯) 在10輪的主要事件. Two judges scored the fight in favor of Evans – 96-94 和 97-93 – while the third judge had Rosa winning, 96-94, 在週五 night at The Masonic at Templelive Cleveland.
It was a night that saw three previously undefeated fighters lose their unbeaten records. Rosa became the 171ST fighter to lose his undefeated record in the 16-year history of 的ShoBox.
In the telecast’s first fight, heralded Cleveland boxer and 2016 中美. Olympian Charles Conwell made his television debut and improved to 6-0. But it was the Evans-Rosa fight that fans won’t soon forget.
“What a way to end a great year of boxing on SHOWTIME,“說 的ShoBox 分析師史蒂夫Farhood. “Rosa vs. Evans was one of the best main events we have had in the 16 years of the 的ShoBox 系列. These were two fighters that understood what was at stake. They both did what they came here to do. 最後, it was all up to the judges. I thought they got it right. It was a split decision. Great action fight between two very well-conditioned fighters.”
The Evans-Rosa war included 611 total connected punches and 512 landed power shots were exchanged. There were multiples shifts of momentum throughout the fight as Rosa commanded the early rounds with volume and power while Evans rallied in the middle rounds.
“I’m tired but I’m feeling great,” Evans said. “My performance was great. I’ve never felt myself pushed that hard. He’s a tough Puerto Rican. He’s a very tough fighter. The crowd really propelled me to victory tonight, and I’m grateful for that.”
Rosa led 268-267 in total connected punches entering the final round, but Evans summoned a huge rally in the 10th (49 的 103 到 27 的 88 for Rosa) to seize a 316-295 overall lead to earn the split-decision victory.
“I thought I won the fight, he won maybe three or four rounds,” a disappointed Rosa said after the fight. “我贏得了戰鬥 6-4, 7-3 at least. I won mostly all of the beginning rounds and I gave him a few after the first six. Four rounds is the most I give him, and that’s being nice. I feel like the judges were swayed by the hometown crowd.”
Evans is ready for his next challenge. “I want Gary Russell, 我想要 [卡爾] 弗蘭普頓, 我想要 [獅子] 聖克魯斯,” said Evans, who had famed trained Barry Hunter in his corner. “I’m nothing but a contract killer. I’m a contract killer and I want one of those top five guys.”
在合作的主要事件, undefeated Russian standout Radzhab Butaev (8-0, 6 科斯; WSB: 9-1) earned a hard-fought unanimous decision over Colombia’s previously unbeaten Janer Gonzalez (18-1-1, 15 科斯) 在八輪次中量級對決. The three judges scored the fight, 80-72, 79-73, 77-75, in favor of Butaev.
It was a technically sound fight between two accomplished former amateur standouts. Butaev, who dominated from the early rounds, connected on 41 他的權力拳％的 (66 的 162) 相比 27 percent for Gonzalez (47 或 173).
“I felt like I controlled the whole fight, but he was more durable than I expected,” said Butaev through a translator. “Gonzalez landed good shots but he couldn’t finish me.”
Farhood said Butaev failed to make some key adjustments during the fight. “[Butaev] didn’t have his trainer here,“他說，. “Perhaps that is why he failed to make adjustments. He still has a promising future, but this was not his best performance.”
Gonzalez was coached in his corner by noted trainer Ruben Guerrero. “I injured my shoulder in the third round but I stayed in the fight and pushed the fight,“岡薩雷斯說, “When I injured my shoulder, I couldn’t throw my left jab as well, I couldn’t work the jab. If I hadn’t been injured, I would’ve broken him down more in the later rounds.”
在四拼轉播的第二次戰鬥, a matchup of undefeated heavyweights, 28-歲 Junior Fa (13-0, 8 科斯) knocked out Pittsburgh’s Freddy Latham (9-1-2, 5 科斯), handing him the first defeat of his pro career just 67 seconds into the fight. It was the 169日 time a fighter has lost his undefeated record on the 的ShoBox 系列.
New Zealand’s Fa sent the former Golden Gloves champion Latham back-pedaling from the opening bell with a barrage of punches as referee Clifford Pinkney jumped in between the fighters. Latham, who had never been stopped, struggled to keep standing as he leaned against the ropes. 點擊 這裡 to watch video of the stoppage.
“I was actually going to keep on going, continue fighting but then he dropped. He was out of it. The ref pulled me back,” said Fa, who earned a first-round knockout for the sixth time of his career.
Fa landed 59 他的力量，投籃的百分比 (17 的 29) while Latham managed to land just one of four power punches.
Farhood was impressed by Fa’s dominating performance. “Every time a heavyweight shows power, you have to pay attention,“他說，. “I’m sure we’ll see more of him in 2018.”
“I’m hoping for a chance to get in to the top 15,” said Fa, who beat WBO Heavyweight Champion 約瑟夫·帕克 twice in the amateurs. “This fight gave me more confidence in my ability and power, and I think confidence is a great thing.”
在轉播揭幕戰, 2016 中美. Olympian and local favorite Charles Conwell (6-0, 5 科斯) –buoyed by a huge third round where he scored two knockdowns and another in the fifth – went the six-round distance for the first time in his young career finishing off a game Roque “Rocky” Zapata (4-2-3) with an impressive unanimous decision victory scored 60-51 兩次， 60-53.
The super welterweight contest was dominated by Cleveland’s 20-year old Conwell, who used effective body shots to do the most of the damage as he accounted for 80 他 175 total connects and 75 他 150 權力拳.
Conwell caught the former MMA fighter Zapata in the third round with a strong right cross. It was the first time Zapata, who came into the fight with a three-bout winning streak, had ever hit the floor in his career. 點擊 這裡 to watch video of KOs in round 3.
“My game plan was to throw some jabs and go to the body, and I think I accomplished that. My jab was key tonight. I ended up dropping him three times,” said Conwell, who averaged 77 每回合拳, but gave himself just a B-minus. “I would love to keep fighting on television. I want to showcase my skills.”
A left hook by Conwell in the latter stages of the third round dropped Zapata for the second time. Zapata hit the canvas once again in the fifth after a devastating left hook to the body followed by a left hook to the chin. The Culpepper, 將. native stood up at the nine-count and finished the stanza.
Zapata was impressed by his opponent’s talent. “I survived, so I’m happy,“他說，. “I went the distance with an Olympian and that was the plan. I should’ve done better and cut my angles more instead of standing right in front of him, but I’m proud I went the full distance.”
週五 quadrupleheader will replay on 星期一, 十一月. 13 在 10 P.M. AND/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME and will be available on SHOWTIME on DEMAND® 和SHOWTIME ANYTIME®.
The fights were promoted by DiBella Entertainment.

最後QUOTES:
LUIS ROSA JR.:
“There was a time in my career when I was one fight away from fighting for a world title at 122 英鎊, but I’m a natural featherweight. This fight is at 126 but I’ll fight at 126 或 122. Wherever the opportunity is, 我買了.
“I’m going to show a lot of different things. I have more to show than just my boxing skills. Whatever I have to do to get the win, I will do it.
“My opponent is a southpaw, but he’s not the slickest southpaw I’ve seen. We’ve been training with a lot of southpaws. Fighting southpaws is not a big deal for me. I fought so many of them in the amateurs.
“I don’t think I’m going to have any problem with him. I know his left hook is his favorite punch so I’m going to try and take that away from him.
“I think putting together some timely combinations is going to be the key to this fight.
“After I beat [豪爾赫] Diaz and [路易斯] Del Valle in 2015 my opposition dropped. I was knocking on the door but just never got the call. That’s why this fight is so big for me. I’m ready to showcase my skills on national TV. I’m ready for the next step on my career.”
YUANDALE EVANS
“I know all the bigger names are at 126 so I’m going to stay right here. I’ve bounced around from 126 到 130. 婁DiBella, my promoter told me to stay ready and that’s what I did; 我準備好了。“
“It took me awhile from me to come back after the loss to Javier Fortuna [在 2012]. But I’ve always stayed sharp and I’ve been in various camps. I’ve trained with guys like 拉蒙特彼得森, Gervonta戴維斯 和 拉奧肖·沃倫.
“I’ve been doing this since I was 10 歲, but I’m a lot wiser and smarter than in the past. I have knowledge and have been talking to a lot of managers and champions. I’m like an Einstein now. I’m a lot sharper, and craftier. And I have defense now.
“This fight will show the boxing world that I belong. I can be in the top five. This fight means a lot for me and the people of Cleveland.
“I’ve been working with [famed trainer] 巴里·亨特 for this fight and he’s taught me so much. My opponent has been spoiled and has never had to travel into enemy territory. Until now.
I’ve been a road warrior my entire career. I know the crowd can win the fight for me. Just the energy and hearing them when I’m tired. It’s a big advantage for me to be fighting at home. I will have a lot of fans here and it’s going to be big. I still got guys’ texting me for ringside seats, but there’s none left.
“I want 的ShoBox to say, ‘We have to have this guy back. We have to go back to Cleveland.’ ”
“[羅莎] is my height. He’s going to be right in front of me. He’s going to come straight at me. He has to.”
“They call me ‘Money Shot’ and ‘Southpaw Machine’ and the ‘Black Mexican’ in the gyms here in Cleveland.”
JANER GONZALEZ
“I’ve been training with 魯本·格雷羅 for the past couple of weeks, and I like training a lot better here in the United States. I felt like I was mistreated in the past back in Colombia.
“Fellow Colombian 奧斯卡埃斯坎東 introduced me to Ruben and here we are. It’s the United States and everyone wants to be over here. The sparring and the training is just so much better here.
“我 30 years old now and I have a family back home in Colombia to support. This is my shot. I will not fail them. I have Team Guerrero on my side so I’m ready.
“We all know skills pay the bills and I just have to do my job and not get too crazy in there and get the win.
“我看了 穆罕默德·阿里 和 糖光芒倫納德 when I was younger. I liked how smart and intelligent they fought.”
RADZHAB BUTAEV
“I’ve been in the United States for a year now and really liked training at Wild Card Gym and Wild Card West in Southern California.
“I can punch as hard as [根納季] Golovkin and can move better than [Vasyl] Lomachenko. I’m very confident and my experience is the reason for that.
“我對打 德米特里安德拉德 和 肖恩·波特 and I have held my own.
“The welterweight division is the best in boxing, everyone knows that. And I’ll fight anybody.
“It doesn’t matter that there’s no YouTube video on Gonzalez. He’s tough and competitive and a boxer who will come to fight.”
JUNIOR FA
“When I beat 約瑟夫·帕克 [in the amateurs twice] it was my movement and my footwork that was key. He’s such a big puncher I just kept moving because I didn’t want to stand right in front of that.
“I’m a multi-dimensional fighter and my strengths are my mobility.
“Deontay懷爾德 showed that he has plenty of power. He’s always there from the first bell… I like the guy, he’s got plenty of power and is very explosive.
“I like Anthony Joshua’s boxing brain. 他有力量, but it’s a different kind of power from Wilder. I like the way he sees his punches.
“For myself to be known, I’ll definitely have to fight in America. I don’t think I can make too much of a statement being back home in New Zealand.
“I think I can be three to four fights away for the chance at a world heavyweight title. I have to be entertaining in this fight for the American people to get to know me.
“Boxing used to be the biggest thing in New Zealand, but then rugby blew up.
“I live 40 minutes from 約瑟夫·帕克 but we’ve never sparred. It’s too competitive.”
FREDDY LATHAM
“This is my first time on national TV so I’m excited and nervous.
“He’s taller, but I feel like I’m just as long as he is. I can put my head in his chest and go to war. If it’s going to be a dog fight I’ll get into his chest.
“是啊, I’ve watched both the heavyweight world champs. I’d beat Joshua now. 懷爾德, I would have to get serious sparring in. I’d have to change everything I do in my life – the way I train and my lifestyle and everything. Deontay’s the man right now. Joshua burns out after six rounds and that’s why I’d beat Joshua now. I’m two years away from those guys. 明天 night is my first step.
“Boxing’s coming back in Pittsburgh and we’ve got two or three other heavyweights there that are popular right now.”
CHARLES CONWELL
“When you have a good crowd around you, you know it hypes you up.
“I was the youngest member of the 2016 Olympic team at age 18. It was cool being in high school and making the Olympic team.
“I’m very tenacious and determined, that’s why I’ve been successful so far in my young pro career.
“There’s no rush for me. People want to see me, sure. But there’s no reason to move fast at this point.
I think the competitiveness of boxing is what drives me. Sure the money and the fame are going to be great, but I just love everything about this sport.”
ROQUE “ROCKY” ZAPATA
“I haven’t surprised myself when I’ve beaten undefeated fighters.
“I’m an awkward fighter, in a good way. My angles I learned when I was fighting in MMA.
“The risk and the reward wasn’t worth it [to continue] 在MMA. I was making a couple hundred bucks and getting elbows to the face. It just wasn’t worth it.
“Conwell is good and aggressive and I’ve seen him on YouTube. He comes forward and he looks to put you down.
“I just feel so much more comfortable in a boxing ring. I was good at takedowns.
“康納爾麥格雷戈 去 10 與輪 弗洛伊德 [梅威瑟] and he got paid, so good for him. I’m one of the few guys who have been able to do both MMA and box professionally.”

LUIS ROSA JR.
“Yuandale’s a solid, 艱難的戰鬥機. He’s got good pop, but I’m ready for everything, 我在這裡取勝.
“He wasn’t really on my radar, he sort of came out of the woodwork. We’re looking for a world championship and this is a step closer.
“I have no problem coming to Cleveland. I want to be a world champion, not a state champion or the champion of one country. I’ll go anywhere and be victorious.
“Boxing fans can expect a powerful, 快, smart fighter-I’m the full package. I fight with both hands, we’ll see if he can take it.
“This fight is dedicated to all the people of Puerto Rico. Most of my extended family still lives there and thank God everyone is okay after the hurricane.”
YUANDALE EVANS
“I know that’s he a Puerto Rican at heart. He’s a strong fighter that comes forward, a good body puncher. But he doesn’t have any boxing skills. He’s just a banger who keeps coming forward.
“Defensively he leaves himself open with his aggressiveness.
“He was not on my radar. I’ve wanted to fight much tougher guys, higher ranked guys. But once the fight was offered I said yes.
“I want to fight Carl Frampton, 獅子座聖克魯斯, 加里·拉塞爾小, and a rematch with Javier Fortuna. I want to fight all the top guys because that’s where I belong.
“Feels great to be fighting at home, been a long time. Just want to give back to the city and community for them supporting me while I’ve been on the road. Even as an 11-year old amateur they supported me.
“Expect a show, this will be a war, I can box and everybody knows I’m a puncher. Fans should be expecting a good fight. I’ll have a huge amount of people backing me.”
CHARLES CONWELL
“Means the world to me that I can fight at home and show everyone what they’ve been missing. Last time I fought here [在克利夫蘭] 在 2015.
“I know Rocky is a tough fighter, he’s beat a couple prospects and he’ll be coming to win.
“I’ve heard from many of my Olympic teammates this week and I’m excited to show them how I look as a professional. I’m looking forward to showing all the boxing fans around the world my skills.
“Should be an entertaining, good fight, I’m ready to go and hopefully close the show early. I’m ready for all six or a first round knockout.
“No pressure fighting at home or on Showtime. After fighting in the Olympics I’m ready for anything.”
威利·納爾遜
“Right now, I’m at the rebuilding stage of my career to become a world champion.”
“I know a lot about Alexis Hloros, so no issue being a late addition as an opponent, 我準備好了.
“I haven’t fought in Cleveland since 2009. I love being able to fight at home, means a great deal to me.
“I want my next opponent to be a top 20 opponent and to fight on Showtime.”
ISAIAH STEED
“I know Nunez is a very strong, come forward fighter, but he’s got no chance 在週五 夜晚.
“Last time I fought in Cleveland was as an amateur, three or four years ago.
“No pressure at all fighting at home, thrilled to be fighting at home.
“Charles and I spar all the time helping each other, he’s like my little brother, we make a great team.
“Sign the contract. I’m ready to fight anyone.”

即時發布
大西洋城, 新澤西州 (五月 30, 2016)–This past Friday night at the Claridge Hotel in Atlantic City, Rising Promotions staged it’s third consecutive fight card in front of a large crowd that saw Isiah Seldon defeat Eddie Edmond in the six-round main event.
The middleweight bout highlighted a entertaining six bout card.
Seldon rocked Edmond several times with right hands that had the Newark, New Jersey resident holding on. The grabbing got much more severe and Edmond was deducted a point in round four. In round six, Seldon sealed the fight when he landed a right hand that forced Edmond’s glove to touch the canvas for a knockdown.
塞爾頓, 156 lbs won by scores of 59-54, 59-53 和 58-54 to raise his record to 9-1. Edmond, 158 lbs is 4-5-2.
在共同特徵, Chuck Mussachio shook off 39 months of ring rust to pound out a six-round unanimous decision over Willis Lockett in a cruiserweight rematch of a draw that occurred almost eight-years ago.
Mussachio was adept with his jab and landed some hard right hands that stunned Lockett. Despite the long layoff, Mussachio was sharp with his punches and reflexes looked on-point as he was only hit with a couple right hands. Mussachio thrilled his fan base that has stood by him throughout his eleven year career and the Lower Cape May Regional High School guidance counselor will look to make one more run at a title fight.
Mussachio, 183 lbs of Wildwood, New Jersey won by scores of 60-54, 59-55 和 58-56 並且現在 19-3-2. Lockett, 205.3 lbs of Takoma Park, Maryland is 14-17-5.
In an action filled welterweight bout, Quan Johnson made a successful pro debut with a fourth round stoppage over Adrian Wilson in the final scheduled round of their welterweight bout.
Johnson showed fast hands from his southpaw stance and he got off to a good start when a straight left hand in round one landed for a knockdown. 過了一會兒, a hard straight left sent Wilson down for a second time in the opening frame, Wilson began to bleed from his nose in the next round and his troubles worsened when a cut over the right eye formed after another hard left. Wilson showed heart as he fought back hard but, he was outgunned as he tasted the canvas two more times in round four from first a right hook and then finally an accumulation of punches forced the bout to be stopped at 2:15 四個圓形的.
約翰遜, 148.6 櫻桃山, 新澤西 1-0 同 1 昏死. 威爾遜, 147.3 lbs of Atlantic Cuty is 0-3.
Heavyweight’s Quian Davis and Soloman Maye battled to a four round majority draw
Davis boxed but Maye came forward in attempt to make the fight. The judges liked the aggressiveness of Maye and gave him credit for two rounds on two cards ad Davis took a card 39-37 while two read even at 38-38.
戴維斯, 253 lbs of Mays Landing, New Jersey is now 2-0-2. Maye, 226.7 紐黑文磅, Connecticut is 1-6-2.
2016 United States Olympic Alternate, LeRoy Davila stopped Dominic Whitehurst in the second round in a scheduled four round bantamweight bout featuring pro debuter’s.
Davila showed quick hands from his southpaw stance and dropped Whitehurst with a body combination in round two. Davila landed a three punch combination to the body to register a second knockdown. Davila ended things when he landed a hard left hand and the fight was stopped at 2:34.
Davila, 116.9 lbs of New Brunswick, New Jersey is now 1-0 一個淘汰賽. Whitehurst, 117.5 lbs of Chillicothe, 俄亥俄州 0-1.
Said Davila’s manager, Pete Festa, “Rising Promotions is the best up and coming promoter in the industry.”
Lamont Capers opened up the show by scoring a eight round split decision over Nick Kisner in a cruiserweight bout.
Capers was effective with the right hand that continued to get through on Kisner. Kisner landed some good shots that made Capers nose bleed, but he wasn’t as consistent or active enough to pile up the rounds. Kisner was deducted a point for holding in round seven.
Capers, 196.2 lbs of Hawley, Pennsylvania won by scores of 77-74 兩次, while Kisner took a card 76-75. Capers is now 6-8-2. Kisner, 197.8 lbs of Baltimore, Maryland falls to 16-3-1.
“We are the most active promoter in New Jersey and our mission is bring world class boxing back to the boxing capital of the state and that’s Atlantic City. We are working on bringing TV into the picture in the very near future,” said Rising Promotions Thomas LaManna.
“Debbie LaManna and Rising Promotions have done a tremendous job in trying to restore Atlantic City’s reputation as a boxing town again. They seem to have found a niche by bringing local fighters who have strong fan bases to a great venue like the Claridge,” said prominent boxing writer, Dave Weinberg of The Atlantic City Press.
The next Rising Promotions card will take place on Friday, 七月 22 at The Claridge Hotel with the return of welterweight contender, 托馬斯 “玉米片” LaManna in the main event.

In that bout, Kisner fought well and had some moments in the bout, but came up just short in a fight that seemed closer then the official scorecards.

That training regimen has worked so well, that Kisner is now contemplating a move to light heavyweight.
“這就是計劃. 事實上, if everything goes well 在週五, that I am looking at a big name at light heavyweight in August.”
但首先, he has to deal with Capers, not far from Kisner’s hometown of Baltimore.
“I am excited to be fighting in Atlantic City. It is one of the big stages in boxing. 例如星期五, I am going to put on a great show, and I am going to show the world that I am great fighter. I have learned from my previous fights. I have matured and 在週五, people will see that I am on the best fighters in the world.”

大西洋城, 新澤西州 (五月 3-, 2016)–在週五 夜晚, May 27th, a big night of boxing will kick off a holiday weekend at The Claridge in Atlantic City as Rising Promotions will present a terrific card of boxing.
在主要事件, It will be about New Jersey bragging rights as 伊塞亞·塞爾頓 將在 埃迪·愛德蒙 in a bout scheduled for six-rounds.
在六輪的共同特徵, one of the most popular fighter’s from the shore area, 輕重量級 Chuck Mussachio will be back in the ring after a 39-month lay off when he takes on 威利斯洛基特 in a rematch of a bout that that ended in a draw on September 19, 2008.
Mussachio of Wildwood, 新澤西州有紀錄 18-3-2 with five knockouts and will be looking to get back to winning ways that made him a contender.
He will be marking his ring return in a familiar town where he has performed 17 時.
“Everything is going well. I am back in the swing of things and getting good sparring three days a week,” said Mussachio. “I started getting the itch again when I was helping Isiah Seldon ready for his fight in March. I am not worried about the layoff. I got that ring rust off in February. That wore off quickly and that motivated me to get back in the room quickly. I have been in the gym the whole time, 陪練. I was in Bernard Hopkins last two camps, so I have been in good shape this whole time.”
Lockett of Takoma Park, 馬里蘭州有一個記錄 14-16-5 五擊倒.
His record does not tell the story as Lockett has faced the “Whose-Who” of fighters between Super Middleweight and Heavyweight.
他擁有質量贏在泰隆泰特 (5-1), Calvin Riley (1-0), 威利·威廉姆斯 (6-1), 前世界冠軍挑戰者拉里·馬克斯, Joe McCreedy (10-2-1) & 約翰·倫諾克斯 (13-3). The winner of Lennox was part of Rising Promotions maiden card on December 5, 2015.
Lockett has faced eight undefeated fighters. Lockett will look to break a two-fight losing streak. 在他的最後一個回合, Lockett was disqualified against Jordan Shimmell (19-1) 上 二月 27 華盛頓, DC.
“When we fought before,” said Mussachio, “I won that fight. I can’t believe they ruled that a draw. 我有一些東西需要證明, because I took every round in that fight. Looking back, I couldn’t even tell you how he is. He never hit me. I am just going to do what I did last time, but this time, I have to do more.”
Mussachio, who is a guidance counselor by day, isn’t just coming back for one fight. He wants to get back to the status that got him to a 17-1-2 record and came within seconds of becoming USBA Cruiserweight champion before getting stopped by Garrett Wilson in 2011.
“The goal is to take this as far as I can. I have my rhythm back. This is not just one fight. I want to get a big opportunity. I already have the record for that.”
“I feel rejuvenated. I haven’t took a pounding and I still have good legs.”
Mussachio would not have his comeback fight anywhere else and is impressed by the way Rising Boxing Promotions has handled business leading up to the fight.
“I don’t like fighting anywhere else but Atlantic City. This is my 2nd home and it means a lot. After all this time, the interest is still there for me and my fans are coming out. It is like the old days. I want to thank everyone for their continued support of my career which is now going on 12 歲月. Debbie and Thomas LaManna have been great with Rising Promotions. They are very professional and great to work with.”
