Boston (Febreiro 4, 2019):



Murphys Boxeo is proud to announce their 4th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Clash will take place on Sábado, March 16th unha vez máis no House of Blues en Boston.


Headlining the stacked card will be Whitman, Massachusetts’ Mark DeLuca (22-1, 13 Kos). The current NABA Super Welterweight Champion, is ranked #10 in the world by the WBA and will defend his title against Connecticut’s Jimmy Williams (16-1-1, 5 Kos) in an all New England 10 round battle.


DeLuca is coming off the highest profile win of his career this past October when he fought on the undercard of Demetrius Andrade world title fight at TD Garden which was shown worldwide on DAZN. DeLuca won a unanimous decision in what was an immediate rematch of the only blemish on his record, a split decision loss to Walter Wright, considered by most in attendance to be a robbery. Now DeLuca finds himself, not only one of the most popular fighters in New England, but also in contention for a world title shot later this year.


“Being in the Top 10 agora, I know that I’m only a phone call away from a life changing opportunity.”, explains the former Marine turned title contender.


“I’m always in the gym. I’m staying focused. I know I need a good performance against Williams to keep that opportunity alive.”


Having already headlined a Murphys Boxing event on St. Día de San Patricio, DeLuca is well aware that it isn’t the average boxing card.


“St. Día de San Patricio. Boston. Dropkick Murphys. What more can you say? The atmosphere is electric.”


No co-main event, one of boxing’s favorite characters, Gary ‘Spike’ O’Sullivan (29-3, 20 Kos) will make his return to Boston, where he has amassed a huge following, to take on Worcester, Massachusetts’ Khiary Grey (16-4, 12 Kos) in what promises to be an action packed 8 round battle.


The Cork, Ireland native who is promoted by Murphys Boxing in association with Golden Boy Promotions has moved down to the junior middleweight division where he is looking to make a splash in 2019 after finishing last year with a unanimous decision victory in his home country against the 40 fight veteran, Gabor Gorbics.


“Boston is a home away from home for me.”, says the outspoken, handlebar mustached slugger who has fought in the New England area 10 veces.


“Murphys Boxing Saint Patrick’s Day events are not to be missed. The crowd is insane and I’m coming to give them what they wanna see… a fight!”


The night will also feature a who’s who of New England’s hottest young contenders and prospects.


Murphys Boxing’s Charles Foster (17-0, 8 Kos) will put his NABA Light Heavyweight Championship title on the line in a 10 round bout against Chicago’s Mike Jimenez (22-1-2, 14 Kos).


The New Haven, Connecticut based Foster is a world ranked contender (#10 no WBA) and is fresh off a national television appearance last year when he beat the previously undefeated, Alvin Varmall, JR. en Altura De Comezar. He will face one of his toughest challenges yet against the dangerous, power punching, Jimenez whose only loss came to two-time world title challenger, Jesse Hart.


Revere, Massachusetts’ favorite son, Travis Mazac Gambardella (5-0-2, 2 Kos), who trains out of the popular, KnuckleHeadz Gym in Ventura, California, will return home to try and extend his undefeated record against fellow Boston area fighter, Maceo Crowder (2-2, 1 KO) nunha 6 round middleweight contest.


South Boston’s Joe Farina (4-1, 3 Kos), who last fought against Gambardella, dropping a razor close majority decision on the undercard of Demetrius Andrade’s middleweight title fight at TD Garden, will look to get back in the winning column in a four round welterweight rematch against New Jersey’s Steve Moore (1-6, 1 KO) who lost a split decision to Farina last year.


In keeping with the holiday’s theme, there will be an all Irish grudge match when Lucan, Irlanda do John Joyce (7-0, 4 Kos) travels to America to take on Cork, Irlanda do Noel Murphy (12-1-1, 2 Kos), who is now based in New York City, in an 8 round welterweight clash that has Irish pride on the line.


The night will be kicked off by the highly anticipated professional debut of Mansfield, Massachusetts welterweight, James Perella. The decorated amateur fighter will turn proagainst Woburn, Massachusetts’ Bruno Dias (0-5) nunha 4 round contest.


“O St. Patrick’s Day Clash is my favorite promotion of the year and one that our fighters and fans really look forward to.”, explains, Murphys Boxing founder and Dropkick Murphys frontman, Ken Casey.


“The atmosphere that’s created when you put boxing on in a general admission, standing room only concert venue, let alone on St. Patrick’s Day in Boston, creates a unique and intense experience.”


As for the incredibly busy and successful year the promotional company is coming off of, Casey, who will also play 4 consecutive shows with Dropkick Murphys the same week at the same venue, is even more excited about what the new year holds.


“2018 was a breakout year for Murphys Boxing but with contenders like Mark DeLuca and Charles Foster in the position for world title shots later this year and a slew of undefeated prospects on the verge of world rankings, not to mention multiple cards already planned, 2019 will take Murphys Boxing to a whole new level.”

Yamaguchi Falcao to Spike O’Sullivan: Stop Running from me!

Leave a comment

 

Yama vs Spike.jpeg

Plant City, FL (Maio 5, 2018) – Unbeaten WBC #13 rated middleweight Yamaguchi Falcao is sick and tired of being avoided.

 

 

 

A Bronze Medalist at the 2012 Olympics representing his native Brazil, Falcao was in Canada last December helping David Lemieux prepare for his fight against WBO 160 pound champion Billy Joe Saunders. Falcao was made aware that middleweight Gary “Spike” O’Sullivan would serve as the televised co-feature for Lemieux-Saunders December 16 en Canadá.

 

 

 

Upon hearing the news, Falcao and his team immediately offered to fight the more experienced O’Sullivan. The Irishman’s team reportedly did not want to face a southpaw and elected to fight Antoine Douglas. Frustrated but not deterred, Falcao kept training and hoped to face a fighter like O’Sullivan in the near future.

 

 

 

En maio 4, O’Sullivan was again slated as the co-feature for a televised card, this time on ESPN’s Friday Night Fights.

 

 

Hoping the second time would be a charm, Team Falcao made it clear they’d do whatever it took for the opportunity.

 

 

Desafortunadamente, O’Sullivan elected to face Berlin Abreu, a blown up welterweight that hadn’t fought in 18 meses.

 

 

 

To make matters worse, all but once of Abreu’s victories came in the Dominican Republic against opponents with a combined 15-266 rexistro. O’Sullivan stopped his overmatched foe in three rounds. Multiple media outlets covering the fight reported it as a disappointing mismatch while noting O’Sullivan needs to face better opposition.

 

 

 

With a professional record of 28-2, O’Sullivan’s rated 5th pola WBO, 6th by the WBA and 11thpolo WBC.

 

 

 

Falcao, 15-0 (7 KO), believes he’s the superior boxer but hasn’t had the same chances as O’Sullivan and he’s literally willing to fight for the opportunity.

 

 

 

“Spike’s had a lot of favorable opportunities but when he has the chance to take on a tough challenge, he avoids it,” Falcao said from his training camp in Florida. “I twice tried to face him with no questions asked. Both times he refused to face me. I am ranked in the top 15 and you consider yourself a top fighter – why not face me? I’m ready to show the world that I’m an elite middleweight by challenging other top rated 160 pound fighters. My question to you Spike is why did you twice avoid the challenge for easier opponents? I want you to stop running from me – man up and fight me!"

 

 

 

Jody Caliguire, advisor for Team Falcao, has felt the same frustrations as his fighter and none of it has to do with their unwillingness.

 

 

 

“We’re ready for anybody on any platform. Yama has never turned down an opportunity and we’re always putting our name out there. Aside from Spike, we offered to face Demetrius Andrade, Gennady Golovkin, Jason Quigley and Danny Jacobs among others. None of those fights happened. We don’t need to have our record built up – we’re ready to face the best right now!"

LOWELL, Masa. (10/9/15) – O Sábado noite, Rated contedor-irlandés Patrick Hyland mundo (30-1, 14 Kos) faces David Martinez on the undercard of the PBC on NBCSN event from Lowell, Masa. The fight won’t be shown on television, Hyland ve esta é a loita máis importante da súa carreira como traballa o seu camiño de volta a disputa do título mundial.
O ataque o sábado night will be the first in a career that dates back to his days as a 9-year-old amateur in Ireland where his trainer, father and best friend Patrick Sr. non estará no seu canto. Sr Patrick, máis coñecido como Paddy, traxicamente faleceu na primavera deste ano. Deixando a comunidade de boxeo irlandés impresionado.
“Eu escoito a súa voz no fondo da miña cabeza cada día. Cada día. Especialmente no ximnasio aínda cando estou formación,” said Hyland Jr.
A perda do pai de Hyland veu só unhas semanas antes da Hyland esposa Lorna deu a luz o seu primeiro fillo, Callum, aumentando aínda máis a importancia desta loita.
“I challenged Javier Fortuna for the world championship,” said Hyland. “Eu gañou o título irlandés mundo. Teño loitado at MGM Grand, a Arena O2 e do Madison Square Garden. Para me aínda, this is the most important fight of my career. Non só estou loitando polo meu fillo recentemente nado, pero eu estou loitando para manter o legado do meu pai vivo. El me fixo o home que son hoxe e que o home que quero que o meu fillo un día facer. Winning a world title was our dream that we had together. He was always pushing me and my brothers to be the absolute best that we can be, e eu non vou parar ata que eu comece outra rachadura nun título mundial.”
O ataque o sábado night will be Hyland’s fourth since the lone loss of his career, unha decisión 12 redonda moi divertida para o título dos penas contra interino agora reinante campión super pluma Javier Fortuna. Following the loss to Fortuna, Hyland was out of action for a year and a half, como ordenados mediante cuestións de promoción. Hyland asinado con DiBella Entertainment en xuño de 2014 and has since put together three impressive victories. Hyland believes that he will be knocking on the door to challenge for another world title in 2016.
“Teño un gran equipo detrás de min. Meu empresario Brian Peters e promotor Lou DiBella están traballando duro,” continuou Hyland. “Mentres eu continuar a gañar e facer o que eu teño que facer, Sei que eles van me ter a oportunidade de probar a min mesmo e amosar que eu son un dos mellores 126 libras no mundo. 2016 vai ser un gran ano para min e eu espero que unha vez ser un desafío para unha peza da coroa de plumas.”

Aquí o que os participantes tiñan que dicir Mércores:
Danny O'Connor
“Isto é todo sobre min combater o proceso. Gabriel Bracero beat me but I really beat myself. Just like training for this fight, we had a baby son. Two weeks before our first fight, my first son was born and I didn’t know how to separate sport from such life-changing events. Estaba 14-0 e loitando en Showtime. We just had a baby boy two weeks before this fight. I want to prove to myself that I can beat this process. Bracero is my redemption!
“Esta loita é me vs. me. The time was right for this fight. I was offered this fight five times during the past few years but the time wasn’t right.
“I was a scared little kid with no experience in our first fight. I couldn’t handle the pressure, I didn’t even know it was there. Agora, I’m a mature man who is a husband and father. I’m a totally different person.
“This fight could be in my living room. I’m at peace in the ring doing what I love to do. It’s great being back in the ring in Lowell, onde eu gañou o título Luvas de Ouro de Nova Inglaterra e estou loitando na TV nacional, pero o evento está entre os catro cantos e iso é o que realmente importa.”
GABRIEL bracero
“Estou animado. I’ve trained for this fight like I’ve never fought Danny before. I beat him but that was four years ago. I can’t overlook him. He has obviously made improvements and I did also to get where we are today.
“Estou máis experimentado. I moved to train in Orlando and get away from distractions. I hit a few bumps and got incarcerated. Tommy Gallagher (adestrador) saved my lie. He was there when I went to prison and there when I got out. I added a new trainer to our corner, Alexander Lopes, pero Tommy e meu pai, Kiro, are still there. Tommy gives the orders and he likes what Lopez has done with me.
“Tommy Gallagher is my guardian angel. He believed in me more than I believed in myself. He had this vision before I did.
“Danny has become a better fighter. Eu non podo sacar nada del, pero eu estou ansioso para poñer en unha performance espectacular Sábado noite.”
JONATHAN GUZMAN
“Eu estou indo a facelo 20-para-20, si! I’m powerful because I make strong moves. My left hook is my best punch. Podo sentir o poder a través de todo o meu corpo cando bati alguén dereita.
“Eu non me preocupo coa miña adversario ou o que fixo no pasado.
“Lawrence is my home now. I will go back to the Dominican Republic in December for the holidays. I feel like a Bostonian. This is the sixth fight I’ve trained here for and I love the Boston Red Sox.”
Danny Aquino
“Miña última loita me impeliu (perturbado pola decisión sobre Ryan Kielczweski). It made me more confident in myself. Miña última loita foi na ESPN e este é en NBCSN.
“I don’t know too much about my opponent other than he has power that I’ll be looking out for. A win over him should put me in the top 10 e é por iso que estou tan motivado para esa loita.
“Eu gañou o campionato Luvas de Ouro en New England Lowell Memorial Auditorium en 2007.
“Eu adestramento duro e eu estou sempre en boa forma suficiente para bater calquera.”
RYAN KIELCZWESKI
“I like fighting at home and this is one of my favorite venues. I won the New England Golden Gloves there twice.
“Eu adestrei para esta ser a loita máis difícil da miña carreira.
“(Vasquez) is tough with a lot of power. He’s going come forward, pero eu vou ser capaz de out-caixa-lo.
“Está clasificado no top 10 do mundo e unha vitoria que poñer-me de volta na parte superior 10 loitando por un título mundial o próximo ano.”
RAFAEL VASQUEZ
“Esta é unha grande oportunidade para min. I think this fight will put me on the map fighting on national TV and showing fans what I’ve got.
“Eu son unha fame, small fighter determined to win. I fight for my wife, Sandra, que ten escenario e catro cancro e meu oito anos de idade, filla, Kaline, who has autism. It’s not just me fighting in the ring, it’s the Vasquez family. With God’s grace, todo é posible.
“Ryan móvese moi. He uses the ring and boxes. He lost to Aquino and I know he’ll be coming back to prove himself. “
GARY “Spike” O'Sullivan
“Boston is my second home. I love it here. The people are so nice and there are good gyms.
“Eu son un emocionante, loitador divertido que sempre vén para loitar.
“Despois de que eu rematar Eubanks, Eu vou ser o n. 1 contedor no WBA e Golovkin non me pode soster por máis tempo.
“I watched a few clips of my opponent. We have identical records. We both knock people out, so I have to be careful. I’d like to get in a few rounds, pero cando bati persoas, eles caen.”
STEPHEN Ormond
“My first four fights were here in the US. Boston is like my second home. The people are so nice. Boston is a real fight city. I can’t wait for these people to see me in the ring.
“I saw my opponent fight last year in Boston. He’s an experienced guy with a lot of fights. He fought for a world title a long time ago.
“Con Ken Casey detrás de min, an impressive victory will get me a title shot. I’ll take any of them. Eu era unha loita lonxe, losing a qualifier. My grandmother passed away the day of my fight. I’m ready now!”
