Introducerea senzației de greutate grea neînvinsă James “Bestia” Wilson

Golden Boy intră “Modul Bestie sau Modul Fără”
Jared Shaw a reușit o ofertă promoțională de cerneală Heavyweight recent cu Golden Boy Promotions

Los Angeles, CA. (Noiembrie 8, 2018) – Într-o epocă în care boxul greoi este din nou o diviziune fierbinte. Întrebarea este încă pusă, cine va fi următorul Mike Tyson ca artist knockout? Sau sporturile precum fotbalul și baschetul i-au luat pe cei mai buni bărbați mari departe de box?

 

 

 

Intră pe James “Bestia” Wilson.

 

 

 

Wilson are toate atributele calităților menționate mai sus. Un sport extraordinar, care se afla într-un lagăr de antrenament NFL cu un fundal în lupte care afișează o putere feroce.

 

 

 

Wilson, care tocmai a semnat cu Golden Boy Promotions, are un record de 8-0 cu șapte lovituri, dar povestea lui începe 20 cu ani în urmă pe străzile din Los Angeles.

 

 

 

Wilson trecea prin momente grele și era fără adăpost între vârstele 13 și 15, unde dormea ​​în moteluri, bancuri de parc, și duș în acele parcuri. Wilson avea o legătură cu legea, iar asta i-a schimbat viața….pentru mai bine.

 

 

 

“Am fost închis și apoi plasat într-un grup. Asta m-a determinat să am structură și m-a plasat pe drumul cel bun. M-am descurcat bine în școală și am început să joc sport și acum am avut opțiuni pozitive în viața mea,” spuse Wilson.

 

 

 

Wilson a devenit jucătorul de fotbal din Los Angeles Times High School, precum și un traseu în trei orașe & Atlet de teren, care i-a câștigat o bursă la Universitatea Concord din Virginia de Vest.

 

 

 

Wilson, care a absolvit o diplomă în sociologie, apoi a continuat să joace fotbal profesionist în toate locurile, Polonia.

 

 

 

După aceea, a câștigat o invitație în tabără de antrenament cu Chicago Bears. Cu toate acestea, a ales să urmeze o altă pasiune atletică.

 

 

 

“Am început să fac Kenpo-Karate, Muay-Thai și Kickboxing.” Wilson a avut un record profesionist de Kickboxing 16-2-1 unde a concurat în organizații de top precum K-1 și Glory.

 

 

Dupa aceea, Wilson și-a încercat mâna la MMA și a ridicat un impresionant 5-2 înregistrează și luptă pentru apreciatele Campionate de luptă Bellator.

 

 

 

Încă nu sunt mulțumit, Wilson a început să facă box.

 

 

 

Wilson a călătorit din nou pe glob și și-a început perforarea pentru cariera salarială în Noua Zeelandă.

 

 

 

“Am cunoscut un promotor în Noua Zeelandă, și am putut să lupt în fiecare săptămână acolo. Asta mi-a accelerat procesul și dezvoltarea. Am revenit la Los Angeles, și a reușit să obțină încă patru victorii.”

 

 

 

La 7-0, Wilson a cunoscut apoi un jucător de lungă durată din industria boxului, Jared Shaw.

 

 

 

Shaw a văzut videoclipuri cu Wilson pe contul său de Instagram, și a întins mâna grea neînvinsă.

 

 

 

“Jared m-a contactat, și m-am întâlnit la sală, și el a avut aceeași viziune pentru mine pe care am avut-o, iar restul este istorie.”

 

 

 

“L-am văzut pe James ca pe un romb grosier,” spuse Shaw. “El are combinația și viteza și puterea pe care nu le vedeți în diviziunea grea. El are asta “aceasta” factor pe care l-am văzut cu Kimbo Slice. Am avut norocul să-l fi semnat pe Kimbo din luptele care au fost văzute pe Youtube. Când Kimbo a intrat într-o cameră, ai simțit prezență și energie. Văd o mulțime de aceleași calități în ceea ce privește James fiind acel tip de atracție. Oricine a greșit pe James cu un jucător de fotbal sau un artist marțial mixt, cu siguranță va avea mâinile pline în ringul de box. Acesta este un atlet albastru, ” spuse Shaw, care a crescut în sport, deoarece tatăl său Gary Shaw a fost unul dintre cei mai buni promotori din lume în ultimele trei decenii.

 

 

 

 

 

Prima treabă a lui Shaw a fost să-l aducă pe James cu formatorul potrivit. Intră pe Justin Fortune.

 

 

 

“Îl cunosc pe Justin de mult. Atât ca antrenor de forță și condiționare, cât și ca antrenor. Cei mai mulți l-ar cunoaște de partea lui Manny Pacquiao, dar poate că majoritatea oamenilor nu știu că Justin era un potențial greu care s-a luptat cu Lennox Lewis. Ceea ce îmi place cel mai mult la această împerechere este Justin, de asemenea, un greutate mai scurtă, ci un perforator puternic. Anii săi de experiență sunt ceea ce îl va ajuta pe James să își accelereze creșterea în sport. Ca o echipa, avem un obiectiv de a readuce un campionat mondial în Los Angeles și în timp util,” continuă Shaw.

 

 

 

Următoarea mișcare a lui Shaw a fost să găsească promotorul potrivit pentru care va semna Wilson, iar duo-ul a găsit una dintre cele mai mari companii din lume care era interesată.

 

 

 

“O mulțime de promotori se uitau la mine. M-am întâlnit cu Golden Boy, și mi-au văzut talentul și viziunea și simt că vor face asta pentru mine, și du-mă la Campionatul Mondial de Greutate,” spuse Wilson.

 

 

 

Shaw a vorbit puternic despre căsătoria dintre luptător și promotor.

 

 

“Este situația perfectă. Golden Boy Promotions este unul dintre liderii sportului nostru atunci când vine vorba de companii de promovare. In aceasta situatie, s-a gândit că aveți o perspectivă grozavă de la lupta din Los Angeles de la o companie de renume mondial cu sediul în Los Angeles. În prezent, Golden Boy se află în vârful sportului. Ei promovează, probabil, cel mai înalt luptător din lume în Canelo Alvarez, și au putut să-i asigure o înțelegere fără precedent cu DAZN. Așteptăm cu nerăbdare oportunitățile care vor veni pentru James, și să-l arătăm pe James’ set extraordinar de abilități. eu am 100% încredere în Oscar (De La Hoya), Eric (Gomez) și Robert (Diaz) să-l conducă pe James la campionatul mondial Heavyweight, și contribuie la maximizarea potențialului său de câștig. Los Angeles nu a avut niciodată un campion la Greutate, deci are sens perfect că primul va fi cu o echipă completă din Los Angeles cu James, Justin, Băiatul de Aur și cu mine. ”

 

 

 

“Ce mi-aș dori ca oamenii să știe despre James este că în interiorul corzilor, el este un film al bestiei și al luminilor umane, deci nu clipi. Dar în afara ringului, el este un tată incredibil pentru cei trei băieți ai săi. Un vorbitor motivațional extraordinar, și un model pozitiv pentru orașele interioare și restul lumii. El este mare pe comunitate și ajută tinerii. Mai ales a celor bulversați.”

 

 

 

Wilson vorbește cu mulți tineri despre Anti-Bullying. “Spun multe seminarii și seminarii pentru anti-intimidare. Mă duc la o mulțime de școli și locuințe adoptive și le spun povestea mea. Cred că pot fi cineva pentru care copiii să privească și să-i anunțe că au un viitor, în ciuda circumstanțelor în care se află. Le spun copiilor că mâinile tale sunt arme, gura ta este o armă, iar singurul loc de luptă este în interiorul unui inel.”

 

 

 

Când a fost întrebat cu cine vrea să lupte și care sunt obiectivele sale în sport, Spuse Wilson, “Nu caut să lupt cu nimeni în mod special, Caut să-i lupt pe toți. Cel mai important, Sunt aici pentru a le oferi fanilor ceva de urmărit. Este 365 zile de “Fiară” sezon. Este modul Beast sau modul fără.”

Deerfield Beach, FL (Iulie 25, 2018)—Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin’s rematch is all set for Mexican Independence Day on September 15lea în Las Vegas, but what better way to add a little war to the card than having two Mexicans do battle.

 

 

 

Roberto Garcia just witnessed Jaime Munguia’s unanimous decision over Liam Smith on Saturday night and if Munguia is ready to return to the ring on September 15lea, Garcia is ready as well.

 

 

 

“What better way to celebrate Mexican Independence Day than to have two Mexican’s do battle,” a spus Garcia. “We are both warriors. One veteran taking on one youngster. We both come to fight. Let’s get it on.”

 

 

 

Garcia is thankful to Zanfer Promotions (Munguia’s co-promoter with Golden Boy) for giving him his career defining fight against Julio Cesar Chavez’s son, Omar Chavez.

 

 

Garcia won that fight on Aug. 12, 2017 in a 10-round unanimous decision to win the WBC Silver Middleweight title.

 

 

 

Garcia lost his title in his first defense after traveling to England and losing a unanimous 12-round decision to Martin Murray on June 23, 2018.

 

 

“Two warriors doing battle, “Thunder vs Lightning” , both fighters coming forward all night , I’ll KO the “Kid” somewhere late in the fight or I win by unanimous decision.”

 

 

 

No doubt the fight would be epic.

NATIONAL HARBOR, MD. (Mai 17, 2018) – WBC Ușoară campion mondial Gary Russell Jr. and unbeaten top contender Joseph “JoJo” Diaz Jr. went face-to-face Thursday at the final press conference two days before they enter the ring May 19 trăi pe SHOWTIME (10:05 p.m. ET / PT) in the main event from MGM National Harbor in Maryland.

 

 

 

The battle between the 2008 S.U.A.. Olympian Russell Jr. și 2012 S.U.A.. Olympian Diaz Jr. is part of a split-site SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast that will feature WBC Light Heavyweight World Champion Adonis Stevenson defending his title against two-division world champion Badou Jack in a main event from Toronto.

 

 

 

Biletele pentru eveniment, which is promoted by TGB Promotions in association with Golden Boy Promotions, are on sale now and are available by visitinghttp://mgmnationalharbor.com/.

 

 

 

Both fighters were joined on stage by their fathers who also train them, with Gary Russell Sr. and Joseph Diaz Sr. sitting by their sons ahead of Saturday’s matchup. Here is what the press conference participants had to say Thursday from MGM National Harbor:

 

GARY RUSSELL JR.

 

 

 

“Suntem 120 percent ready for fight night. We’re hungry. As long as I have this strap, nobody is walking in here and taking it. I know Diaz is going to bring his best to the table, but we’re ready. The strap is staying at home.

 

 

 

Me and my little brothers Gary Antuanne and Gary Antonio are on the undercard and they’re going to show the work they’ve been doing. Our dad’s birthday is the day after the fight so you know we have to make it special for him.

 

 

 

It’s cool that both me and ‘JoJoare trained by our fathers. Because at the end of the day, when you look at your coach, that’s your last line of defense. When everything else goes wrong, you have to go the corner. You have to have a level of trust and belief in your corner, so who better to have than a parent there?

 

 

 

It’s difficult for me to know if ‘JoJois my toughest opponent since Vasyl Lomachenko because I never train with a lot of worry about my opponents. I think that the biggest thing is preparing myself to the best of my ability and being the best that I can possibly be.

 

 

 

I believe in my ability to make the necessary adjustments, no matter what my opponent brings to the ring. If he wants to come in and box, we are equally as comfortable boxing long ranged as we are making the fight rugged. In order to be great at anything, you have to have a level of versatility. That’s something I bring to the table that a lot of fighters don’t bring.

 

 

 

Diaz worked his way up the ranks to get this fight. He did everything you have to do to get in position to fight for a world title. He’s already mentioned that I’m the best fighter in the division and he knows that all the other champions in the division are afraid to step up and compete against me.

 

 

 

Any fighter who has two months or more to prepare for one opponent is definitely dangerous. We never overlook anyone. I believe in my hand speed, my punching power, my ring generalship and in my ability to make adjustments.

 

 

 

If we can get through this bout, I would love to get in the ring and unify with any of the other featherweight champions. The timing is perfect right now for any of these unification fights. If they still don’t want it, I’m willing to move up in weight to meet any of the guys who have a name. It’s time to make it happen.

 

 

 

I take my hat off to him and to his team for having the guts to step into the ring. There are only certain people who can be made for this sport and it speaks volumes about him as an individual. I don’t expect anything less than a worthy opponent.

 

 

 

It’s a pleasure being here for this fight right near my hometown. We had a very long training camp and everything is feeling good heading into the fight.

 

JOSEPH DIAZ JR.

 

 

 

It’s right here and around the corner. I’m very excited for the moment to be here. I’ve been waiting for this my whole entire life and I’m not going to take anything for granted. I trained extremely hard for this fight.

 

 

 

I absolutely think Gary is overlooking me. I think he underestimated me. I’ve trained for this my whole entire life. This opportunity has been presented to me by my hard work and it’s really the opportunity of a lifetime. I can’t wait to show everybody my skills and what I’m truly about.

 

 

 

“Este vorba despre calendarul. Gary has the fastest hands in boxing but we’ve watched a lot of tape and we see a lot of flaws. Every fighter has flaws. We’re just going to capitalize on what we see and take full advantage on Saturday night.

 

 

 

I don’t think Gary having not fought since last year will be any kind of advantage. Vreau Gary Russell Jr. to be at his best come fight night. I know that I’m at my best and the best man should win on fight night. There shouldn’t be any excuses after this fight and after I win the title.

 

 

 

I believe after I win this title on Saturday night that I’ll be on top of the throne in the featherweight division. Hopefully I can get some big fights soon after that.

 

 

 

I’m prepared for everything he’s going to offer. He’s going to come out and box a little bit and look to use his jab, create angles and use his speed to keep me out of range. It’s going to come to the point where he’s not going to want to move as much and he’ll starting fighting on the inside. That’s where I want to be. We’re going to deliver some great blows and may the best man win.

 

 

 

I know what Gary Russell Jr. brings to the table. I know he’s the toughest fighter in the division but I’m ready to go out there and bring back the WBC title. I’m ready to fight the best and unify all the titles.

 

 

 

It’s going to be fireworks on Saturday night. I’ve had a perfect training camp and I’m on weight. Everything feels great and I can’t wait to step into the ring.

 

 

 

I’m ready for anything. If it stops early or goes the distance, I’m going to keep pushing each round more than the last.

 

 

 

It would mean everything to win this world title. Not just for myself, but for my whole family. All the hard work and struggles that we’ve been through, it’s finally here. I’m going to do everything I can to come out victorious. Our lives are going to change and I’m going to inspire the youth and the people around me. I want people to know that if you put your mind to it, anything is possible.

 

GARY RUSSELL SR., Russell’s Father & Antrenor

 

 

 

The reason for the inactivity is just politics. We always have the intention on fighting but we want to find the best opponent for Gary. ‘JoJois the mandatory so we’re going to fight him and after we get this win, we’re looking at Leo Santa Cruz, Abner Mares, Carl Frampton. We want to unify.

 

 

 

Before Gary retires from the sport, he’ll move up and do whatever it takes to get a rematch with Lomachenko.

 

 

 

We like to say that this is just Gary’s occupation. He gets paid to fight and he’s able to support his family because of that. All of the accolades don’t really mean anything to him or to us. The WBC belt is definitely the most prestigious, but like Gary said, we’re not really into the little trinkets. He would take it to the pawn shop if he could. We’re not really into those type of accolades. We just want to conduct ourselves as gentlemen, set an example and get paid.

 

JOSEPH DIAZ SR., Diaz’s Father & Antrenor

 

 

 

It’s a blessing to be in this position. I really believe that god didn’t bring us this far only to bring us this far. I really think the journey is going to continue. I’m very proud of my son. He has worked really hard and has shown a lot of will and determination. It means the world to me that he’s pursuing his career and is doing something that he loves doing.

 

 

 

 

It’s exciting to finally have a fight on the east coast. It’s beautiful out here. Joseph has been wanting to fight out here and now he has that opportunity to meet some of the fans he has out here that he hasn’t had the chance to meet.

 

 

 

“Russell Jr. is a fast fighter. He’s skilled and he’s smart in there. We’ve been working on Joseph’s timing. Joseph’s a little deceiving because he kind of moves a little slow but he’s actually much faster than people think he is. The speed of Russell doesn’t affect us at all. Joseph has sparred and fought fast fighters especially in the amateurs.

 

 

 

The plan is to go in there and beat Gary Russell up. And we’re hoping this win sets up bigger and better fights with the Santa Cruz and the Selby’s of the world. All of the champions. We’re hoping to get some of those opportunities because it will bring a lot of attention to the boxing world. Joseph will be a very good ambassador for the sport of boxing.

We’re thrilled to be here at MGM National Harbor. MGM is an incredible brand that means a lot in boxing. It is a brand that is known throughout the sport at the highest level and we appreciate the entire MGM organization and their support for the sport.

 

 

 

“Gary Russell Jr. vs. ‘JoJoDiaz which is an outstanding matchup. Gary is without questions one of the most skilled-if not the most skilled fighter in any division. He’s known for having the fastest hands in the sport. ‘JoJoDiaz is a young rising star who I’ve known personally since he turned pro. These are two action fighters. They’re fan-friendly fighters who will deliver an action packed night.

 

 

 

It’s been an interesting couple of weeks in boxing. A lot of announcements, new ventures and big promises. But here at SHOWTIME we just keep doing what we’ve been doing, and what we’ve been doing is delivering the best fighters, cele mai mari lupte, week after week and month after month.

We’re very excited to welcome these fighters and everyone involved in this event, back to MGM National Harbor. One year ago I was on a similar stage as we prepared for Gary Russell Jr. to defend his world title, and he did not disappoint his fans.

 

 

 

The fans here in Prince George’s County and the whole region love a good show and a good fight. They love it even more when they can root on their hometown hero. sambata seara, nu va fi diferit.
