The championship event, presented by Corona Extra, will be produced and distributed live by HBO Pay-Per-View® begynder ved 9:00 p.m. OG/6:00 p.m. PT.

 

“I would like to thank Roc Nation Sports, Caribe Promotions and HBO for the opportunity to fight on the biggest Pay-Per-View card of the year. It will be a night of great boxing that fans will not want to miss out on. It’s going to be a chance to show HBO what they want to see. Some say I’m not exciting but it’s not my fault that once my opponents feel my power, they start running and stop throwing punches. Regardless of that, I’m going to give them what they want. I will be standing in the middle of the ring toe-to-toe and putting on a show for the fans. This is where I’ll show the world what my fans got to see in my last fight in the UK against [James] Dickens,” said Rigondeaux. “I want to thank Moises Flores for having the courage to step in the ring with me and accepting the mandatory challenge unlike many great fighters in my division. Moises is an exciting Mexican fighter who will bring a fight. I will be ready to exhibit why I am one of the best pound-for-pound boxers and the world’s best at 122 pounds. I’m ready to give fans the best fight out there, and the best is to come the evening of Juni 17."

 

“I’m very excited to have my world title fight with Guillermo Rigondeaux rescheduled for Lørdag, Juni 17 on HBO Pay-Per-View,” said Flores. “I’d like to thank my team at Probox Management and TGB Promotions along with HBO for providing this opportunity. I never stopped my preparations from the original date and look forward to making the Mexican fans proud when I defeat the great Rigondeaux.”

 

“Roc Nation Sports is thrilled to add Guillermo Rigondeaux’s championship defense against Moises Flores to the Pay-Per-View undercard of Ward-Kovalev 2: ‘The Rematch’,” said Roc Nation President & Chief of Branding and Strategy Michael R. Yormark. “We know these two champions are ready and eager to put on a big performance on boxing’s biggest stage and undoubtedly, ahead of the most anticipated fight of the year.”

 

“TGB Promotions is proud of this world title opportunity for Moises ‘Chucky’ Flores as he takes on one of the premier fighters in the sport, Guillermo Rigondeaux,sagde Tom Brown, Formand for TGB Promotions. “Chucky is well prepared and looking forward to making the Mexican fans proud of their new World Champion on Juni 17."

 

Guillermo “El Chacal” Rigondeaux (17-0, 11 KOS), was one of the most celebrated amateur boxers in Cuba before defecting and making his professional debut on May 22, 2009 i Miami, Florida. High expectations had no ill effect on Rigondeaux as he tore through his next five opponents. Den November 13, 2010, in just his seventh pro fight, Rigondeaux faced Ricardo Cordoba for the vacant interim WBA World Super Bantamweight title and left the ring with the belt after scoring a split decision victory. Rigondeaux turned his attention to supremacy in the 122-pound division and accomplished what many considered the unthinkable by knocking out WBA World Super Bantamweight Champion Rico Ramos on January 20, 2012, becoming a world champion in fewer than 10 professionelle anfald. Den April 13, 2013 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, Rigondeaux scored his biggest victory to date by defeatingWBO and Ring Magazine World Champion and 2012 Fighter of the Year Nonito Donaire. Rigondeaux came away with the victory by unanimous decision after out landing and out punching Donaire throughout the fight to unify titles. In November of 2015, Roc Nation Sports announced that it had signed Rigondeaux to an exclusive promotional agreement and featured him on the HBO Pay-Per-View undercard of the Miguel Cotto vs. Canelo Alvarez mega-fight at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, where he defeated veteran Drian Francisco via a 10-round unanimous decision. Prior to beating Francisco, Rigondeaux was stripped of his title belts due to inactivity, but remained the WBA champion in recess. I maj 2016, Roc Nation Sports announced that Rigondeaux was reinstated of his WBA belt ahead of a 12-round WBA World Super Bantamweight championship showdown against number 13 rated WBA super bantamweight contender Jazza Dickens on Juli 16 at the Cardiff Ice Arena in Wales. In his first ever appearance in the United Kingdom, Rigondeaux gave fans a thrilling knockout against Dickens. The southpaw landed a big left hook, shattering Dickens’s jaw, halting the fight in the second round with a referee’s decision. Rigondeaux will be raring to go on Juni 17 in his title defense against interim champion Moises Flores.

 

Moises “Chucky” Flores (25-0, 17 KOS) learned the fight game growing up in Guadalajara, Mexico, and spent the early years of his professional career building up his résumé in his home country. Now established as a title contender at 122 pounds, Flores looks to climb to the top of the division with his considerable talent. Flores is exceptionally tall for his weight class, measuring in at 5 feet 9 inches. Som sådan, he tends to have a reach advantage over most of his opponents, although Flores isn’t one to merely fire punches from a distance and box from the outside. He likes to mix it up, and his record reflects that, with most of his opponents going down by knockout. Flores made his pro debut in August 2008 with a second round knockout of Oswaldo Salgado in Guadalajara, Mexico. He fought exclusively in Mexico over the first six years of his career and made quick work of most of his opponents. Flores made his U.S. debut in September 2014, winning a six round unanimous decision over Pablo Batres in Mesquite, Texas. He then gained a seventh round technical knockout of Mexican veteran Mario Macias in Tulsa, Oklahoma, i november 2014. That victory set up a 122-pound title shot against interim WBA World Super Bantamweight Champion Oscar Escandon in Carson, California, i april 2015. In an electrifying, all-action brawl, Flores earned a split decision to win the title. In his last two fights, Flores was able to defend the interim WBA World Super Bantamweight title against Luis Emanuel Cusolito, while also adding the IBO World Super Bantamweight title against Paulus Ambunda. Flores looks forward to claiming the full rights to the WBA World Super Bantamweight title on Juni 17 when he faces current champion Guillermo Rigondeaux in a 12-round championship showdown.

Guillermo Rigondeaux’ manager accepts offer From Vasyl Lomachenko’s manager

Efterlad en kommentar

CORK, Irland (Juli 13, 2015) – Irer Gary Hyde, lederen af ​​samlet super bantamvægt (122 lbs.) verdensmester Regning “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOS), har accepteret i princippet tilbuddet fra Egis klima, leder af World Boxing Organization (WBO) fjervægt (126 lbs.) mester Vasyl “Hi-Tech” Lomachenko (4-1, 2 KOS), for en Super Fight.

 

Rigondeaux er den regerende World Boxing Association (WBA) Super, WBO og Ringen bladets super bantamvægt mester.

 

Cubansk-native Rigondeaux, som nu bor i Miami, og ukrainsk-fødte Lomachenko er begge to-time olympiske guld medaljevindere.

 

“'Rigo’ vil kæmpe Lomachenko på et opsamlingsvægte af 124 pounds, der skulle være noget problem for Lomachenko fordi han vejede 125 pounds for en af ​​hans professionelle kampe, Hyde sagde. “'Rigo’ er en lille 122-punds, der kunne gøre 118 uden meget besvær, men han ville give væk størrelse og vægt fordele til ansigt Lomachenko.

“Vi vil insistere på en rehydrering klausul 135 pund for fight night. Hvis Klimas accepterer at dette, derefter, vi har en kamp. Lomachenko er en mesterlig fighter som 'Rigo’ og dette match- op vil være en klassisk. Vi har et par to-time olympiske guld medaljetagere og nuværende verdensmestre går på det. Jeg tror 'Rigo’ er den mere glubsk af de to kæmpere, og jeg tror fuldt og fast 'Rigo’ vil dominere Lomachenko.

Boxing’s most avoided world champion Guillermo Rigondeaux heading to UK next month To publically confront Scott Quigg

Efterlad en kommentar
CORK, Irland (April 12, 2015) – Unified super bantamweight world champion Regning “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOS), arguably the most avoided reigning world title holder in modern boxing history, will travel to London next month in order to publicly confront his mandatory challenger, Scott QUIGG (30-0-2, 22 KOS), the World Boxing Association (WBA) “regelmæssig” 122-pund division titlist.

 

A month ago in an unusual move, Rigondeaux’ Direktør Gary Hyde formally petitioned the WBA to enforce a mandatory title fight between his WBA Super champion and Quigg. Hyde is awaiting the WBA’s decision. Rigondeaux is also the World Boxing Organization (WBO) og Ringen bladets super bantamvægt mester.

 

A reigning world champion hasn’t been avoided by other world champions and top contenders like Rigondeux has for the past two years since, måske, junior mellemvægt Sergio Martinez, or possibly all the way back to middleweight Mike McCallum.

 

The top three super bantamweights in the world outside of Rigondeaux – International Boxing Federation (IBF) og World Boxing Council (WBC) champions, Carl Frampton og Leo Santa Cruz, henholdsvis, plus Quigg – have avoided the Cuban great like the plaque. Once Santa Cruz’ promoter at the time, Oscar de la Hoya, announced that a Rigondeaux-Santa Cruz had to happen, Santa Cruz’ powerful adviser, Al HAYMON, exercised a contract option and bought him out to avoid a fight with ‘Rigo.’ Frampton’s promoter, Barry McGuigan, has proclaimed his fighter, not Rigondeaux, som nr. 1 super featherweight in the world. McGuigan, selv, is interested in Frampton fighting Quigg in a U.K. showdown, rather than a world mega-fight for three of the four major sanctioning world titles. As the “regelmæssig” WBA champion, Quigg is Rigondeaux’ obligatoriske udfordrer, endnu, he apparently wants no part of the two-time Olympic gold medalist because his promoter, Barry Hearn, not only hasn’t pushed the issue, he’s in negotiations with McGuigan for Frampton to fight Quigg.

 

Former world super bantamweight champions Nonito Doniare, after he lost a unification fight to Rigondeaux two years ago, og Abner Mares chose to move up one division to fight as featherweights. And now Donaire reports that his manager was contacted by a Quigg representative to discuss a Donaire-Quigg fight in England.

 

Another two-time Olympic gold medalist, WBO 126-pound champion Vasyl Lomachenko, continually insists that “Linje” has to move up in weight for a fight to happen despite him having no problems making 126.

 

“QUIGG, Santa Cruz and Frampton have showed no desire to challenge Rigondeaux,” Hyde sagde. “These three fighters are trying to fool the public into believing that fight No. 1 guy in the world is not important. While they are lining their pockets with ridiculous amounts of cash for fighting below par opponents, Rigondeaux is forced to wait around until some Asian opponent steps up. This is a sport in which we are accustomed to seeing the best fighting the best but, in the super bantamweight division, it’s the best versus the rest.

 

“Rigondeaux will travel to Manchester to fight Quigg, Belfast to fight Frampton, or Las Vegas to fight Santa Cruz. None of these so-called world champions, selv, will consider fighting the acknowledged world super bantamweight champion. They’re all much more content to hold onto their belts than beating The Man in their weight class.”

 

Næste måned, Hyde reports, Rigondeaux will travel to the United Kingdom in a bold attempt to embarrass Quigg into fighting him. “I don’t like traveling overseas unless I have a fight lined up,” Rigondeaux explained, “but I will travel to England in May to publicly call out Scott Quigg. If he turns down the chance to fight our WBA mandatory, he will be remembered for that instead of being known as a great fighter. While I’m in the UK, I will also go to Belfast to checkout Carl Frampton to ask if he wants to prove himself against the best in his division.”

 

Understanding that the top super bantamweight action is currently in Europe, noting a record purse ($2.2 million USD) offered for a Frampton vs. Quigg fight, Rigondeaux is considering a major change in the not too distant future, moving his base from Miami to the UK, if that’s what it takes for him to get in on the action.

 

Hyde also manages former WBO middleweight champion and current International Boxing Federation (IBF) Do Not. 1 obligatoriske udfordrer Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KOS), former WBA Interim cruiserweight champion Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga (21-2, 14 KOS) and Georgian super lightweight Levan “Ulven” Ghvamichava (14-1-1, 11 KOS) , as well as top prospects such as Cuban super bantamweight Mark Skov (2-0, 2 KOS), Irish heavyweight Med Sheehan and Bulgarian light heavyweight Blagoy Naydenov.

Direktør John Seip underskriver italiensk super mellemvægt udsigten Daniele Marco Scardina

Efterlad en kommentar

(L-R) – Daniel Mark Scardina og John Seip

 

MIAMI (April 6, 2015) – Veteran boksning Manager John Seip har underskrevet højt dekoreret italiensk amatør bokser Daniel Mark Scardina til en eksklusiv ledelsesmæssig kontrakt.

 

Seip er bedst kendt for at lede Peter “Kid Chocolate” Quillin til World Boxing Organization (WBO) verden mellemvægt titel. De indfødte New Yorker også formår stigende britiske super mellemvægt Steed “The Stallion” Woodall (7-0-1, 5 KOS).

 

Den 21-årige Scardina kommer fra Rozzano, en by med mindre end 40,000 mennesker i Lombardiet. Han startede boksning i 2008 i en alder af 16, følgende i sin onkels fodspor som var en bokser dengang, samt Daniele rolle model.

 

Scardina, der havde 56 amatør anfald, erobrede toppen udmærkelse i mange italienske turneringer herunder Rovereto National, National Silver Glove, og to nationale Golden Gloves. Han vandt også en bronze medalje ved en international begivenhed.

 

I 2013, Han boksede for Italia Thunder Boxing Team i World Series of Boxing, vindende hans eneste match mod en tysk modstander.

 

Scardina først fangede Seip opmærksomhed på den verdensberømte 5th St. Gym i Miami Beach, oprindeligt åbnet i 1950 ved Chris Dundee, og hjemsted for utallige verdensmestre har trænet der bl.a. Muhammad Ali, Carmen Basilio, Willie Pastrano, Emile Griffith, Archie Moore, Roberto Duran, Sonny Liston og Willie Pep. De rige tradition fortsætter på det nye 5th St. Gym, placeret i nærheden på 1434 Alton Street, hvor top kæmpere fra hele verden, såsom Bernard Hopkins stadig træner.

 

“Jeg først så ham træne på 5th St. Gym og han lignede en typisk amatør,” Seip forklarede. “Han kastede brede stempler og vidste ikke, hvordan at kaste en god jab. Trænere Guy Laieta og Dino Spencer begyndte at arbejde sammen med ham og nu er han ved hjælp af sin rækkevidde, kæmpe på afstand, og kaster kombinationer af jabs og kroge. Han er passioneret omkring boksning, lytte og lære hver dag. Daniele har god hånd hastighed og kraft. Han er en smuk dreng, for. Jeg så noget i ham, immaterielle aktiver, og besluttede at underskrive ham.

 

“Dino er en ejer, der har skabt en top-notch fitnesscenter med stor sparring muligheder i en atmosfære featuring så mange talentfulde krigere, der virkelig skubber hinanden. Det er allerede klart, at Danielle har forbedret sit færdighedstræning der. Han er lang, hurtig og kraftfuld. Hans arbejdsmoral er utroligt; han er den første i gymnastiksalen, sidste til at forlade. Du kan ikke skade dette barn, enten. Vi tror alle, at han har en meget lys fremtid.”

 
Scardina hits tung taske på 5th St. Gym i Miami Beach

I modsætning krigere fra Rusland og tidligere Sovjet-blok nationer, såvel som dem fra Latinamerika, der kommer til USA for at etablere deres professionelle boksning karriere, Italiensk-fødte krigere sjældent har fulgt den samme rute som Scardina, som flyttede til Miami sidste år og sover på gulvet i sin brors lejlighed.

 

Den enlige italiensk-fødte verdensmester, der kæmpede professionelt i Amerika er Vito Antuofermo (50-7-2, 21 KOS), der var WBC / WBA mellemvægt mester i 1979-1980. Antuofermo, selv, flyttede med sin familie til Brooklyn fra Puglia, Italien, da han var 17 og han lærte at bokse i Amerika.

 

“Jeg har altid ønsket at være en mester i Amerika,” Scardina sagde. “Det er den amerikanske drøm for mig. Jeg tror, ​​jeg vil have en stor chance i dette land for at være den største bokser, jeg kan være med den rette hjælp. John Seip er den rigtige leder for mig, fordi han mener, vi kan verdensmesterskabet sammen som et team.”

 

Scardina foretrukne boksere er Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali, Guillermo Rigondeaux og Miguel Cotto. “Jeg arbejder på perfektion som en udenfor fighter og til de vigtigste mine arme tættere,” Scardina tilføjet. Jeg kæmper for at blive verdensmester.”

 

Scardina forventes at gøre sin pro debut i maj eller juni.

Direktør Gary Hyde andragender WBA at håndhæve obligatoriske titel kamp mellem Rigondeaux og Quigg

Efterlad en kommentar

 

CORK, Irland (Marts 12, 2015) – International boksning Manager Gary Hyde, præsident for Nowhere2Hyde Management, har formelt indgivet et andragende World Boxing Association (WBA) at håndhæve en obligatorisk titel kamp mellem Hyde s fighter, WBA Super & World Boxing Organization (WBO) super bantamvægt mester Regning “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOS), og WBA “regelmæssig” 122-pund division titlist Scott QUIGG (30-0-2, 22 KOS).

 

Herunder finde en kopi af Hyde brev til WBA:

 

 

Dear Chairman Mendoza:

 

Jeg skriver som leder af Guillermo Rigondeaux, Unified WBA / WBO Champion.

 

I write to request enforcement of the mandatory. Uniquely in the Super Bantamweight Division Guillermo Rigondeaux is the “Unified Champion” og Scott Quigg er “Regelmæssig Champion.”

Clearly as the Regular Champion Quigg is the highest ranked contender in the division. While he was injured he is now back in training and there is no reason why Mr. Rigondeaux ikke kan eller ikke bør opfylde sine obligatoriske forpligtelser over for hr. QUIGG.

 

We are aware that there are some discussions about a bout between Quigg and Frampton. Men, vi har været i kontakt med IBF, og de ikke vil sanktionere forening kamp med andre end det højeste niveau mester, som i dette tilfælde er Guillermo Rigondeaux.

 

Vi respektfuldt foreslå, at det er bedst at behandle den obligatoriske spørgsmål nu og anmode om, at Quigg og Guillermo rettes til at indlede forhandlinger.

 

Ærbødigst,

 

Gary Hyde

 

 

Hyde forvalter også WBA Interim cruiserweight mester Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga(21-1, 14 KOS), tidligere WBO mellemvægt mester og nuværende International Boxing Federation (IBF) Do Not. 1 obligatoriske udfordrer Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KOS), og top super bantamvægt udsigten Mark Skov (1-0, 1 KO).

(L-R) – Mark Skov & træner Joe Goossen

CORK, Irland (Februar. 12, 2015) – Fejrede cubanske amatør bokser Mark Skov vil gøre sin professionelle debut i morgen nat (Fri., Februar. 13) i en fire-round super bantamvægt Bout mod veteran Ignac “Test” Kassai på 5 Stjerne riddersalen i Queens, New York.

 

En tre-tid Cuban National mester, 25-årige Forestal besejret 2012 OL-guldvinder Robeisy Rameriez 14 måneder siden i en sensationel nationale mesterskab endelig.

 

Fighting som en semi-pro i World Series of Boxing (WSB) for ubesejret 2014 hold mester Cuba Domadores, Forestal var ubesejrede i tre WSB kampe før hoppe af til USA i april.

 

Forestal underskrevet en kontrakt denne sidste oktober med Irland-baserede, International boksning Manager Gary Hyde, præsident for Nowhere2Hyde Management. Hyde forvalter også til stede, tidligere og fremtidige verdensmestre som World Boxing Association (WBA) Super & World Boxing Organization (WBO) super bantamvægt mester og to-tiden cubanske OL-guldvinder, Regning “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOS), WBA Interim cruiserweight mester Yuri “El Toro” Kalenga (21-1, 14 KOS), tidligere WBO mellemvægt mester og nuværende International Boxing Federation (IBF) Do Not. 1 obligatoriske udfordrer Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (31-1, 18 KOS), og verden amatør mester Blagoy Naydenov.

 

“Marcos Forestal er en fremragende ung fighter, der har en actionfyldt stil,” Hyde sagde. “Han har, hvad det kræver at blive verdensmester. Vi kunne ikke finde en amerikansk modstander at kæmpe Marcos, fordi de sagde, at han var en anden Rigondeaux og olympiske mester. Mens han slog en olympisk mester, Marcus var ikke en olympisk. Vi fløj i hans modstander fra Ungarn. Kasai er en 56-kamp veteran, der har kæmpet nogle af de øverste europæere ligesom IBF super bantamvægt mester Carl Frampton, verden titel udfordrere Martin Ward, Pulver Zsolt og Alexander Miskirtchian, og tidligere europæiske champ Anthony Settoul.”

 

Forestal er en 5′ 8″ southpaw der vil føre kampagne i 122-pund super bantamvægt division, samme vægtklasse hans landsmand og stablemate Rigondeaux regler.

 

“Guillermo Rigondeaux er en super mester og i Cuba jeg så op til ham som sin lillebror,” Forestal tilføjet. “Han har domineret super bantamvægt division og jeg vil snart slutte sig til ham på toppen.”

 

Bor i Los Angeles og uddannet der ved Joe Goossen, Forestal anden pro kamp er foreløbig planlagt til Marts 6 i nærliggende Glendale, California.
